what i am trying to do is block service to the LAN servers. the current network setup is as follows. DSL----(Public IP)
firewall - 192.168.0.0/24 --Office computers–wireless network - 10.0.0.0/24
the firewall is pluged into the DSL and the mikrotik is then in a switch off the firewall
i want to restrict access to the firewall which is 192.168.0.12. I have tried to use a basic rule blocking the traffic from the wireless subnet to just that IP. but that doesn’t work. you can see the connection in the firewall table but the rule doesn’t block that connection. i have also tried to create a rule which will block all from wireless (10.0.0.0/24 source) to office computers (192.168.0.0/24 dest.) what would be the easiest way to go about doing this. something seems to be working funny.
how did u configure it ?
I have three units running WDS with the hotspot. the way that i have this network setup now is to mark the connection to the LAN subnet (192.168.0.0/24) then i put them in a queue that is 1bite. this does work for me. what happens when you try to access the LAN from the WDS you truly could if you wanted to wait two years for the LAN server pages to load. I just thought that there would be an easier way with only one rule.
