I am in the process of renumbering an entire organization. I have 3 Mikrotiks
172.16.8.0/22 LAN A
172.16.24.0/22 LAN B
172.16.32.0/22 LAN C
They talk among each other by small subnets such as 172.16.1.0/30.
There is a firewall at Location A. The first Mikrotik there communicates with it from 172.16.1.2/30 (mikrotik side) to 172.16.1.1/16(firewall side). The firewall, of course, NATs and goes to the internet. LAN A is currently on 192.168.20.0/24.
I need to renumber at B and C, but put the Mikrotik in operation in A temporarily using the 192.168.20.0/24 as LAN A on the MT at location A. The firewall does NATting and doesn't like this. The firewall address has a /16 so that it see the whole 172.16 as LAN. This works great on B and C in the lab. However I can get 192.168.20.0/24 to reach the internet.
I imagined I need to double NAT for that subnet. I tried the following on MT at location A:
NAT
srcnat
action: masquerade
out interface (ether1--the interface that connects to the firewall)
src address: 192.168.20.0/24
This did NOT work.
Can someone please tell me the proper way to do this. I want anything coming in on Ether2 (from 192.168.20.0/24) to be NATted to the 172.16.x on the Ether1 so that when it reached the firewall and that is NATted, it shouldn't object.
TIA
