I need some help getting rb750 to work correctly

Hi Guys
I need some help on getting some help getting rb750 to work correctly. What I mean by this is I got my real world ip address on ethernet port 3 I mean I can ping it but I cant get to my webserver.

this is how I got it setup: outside -----> to rb750 on port 1 ----> to smoothwall (that have my real world static IP) ----> to my webserver so how would I get it to work correctly.

2

That layout makes no sense to me. What purpose is the RB750 supposed to have? What are you trying to achieve?

3

the rb750 is post to serve as letting me add more static real world IP addresses because smoothwall dont allow you add more then 1 static IP address.

4

Then take the SmoothWall out of the picture completely and follow the manual at http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP/Firewall/NAT#Destination_NAT to map the public IP to the webserver’s internal IP.

5

then I have to move everything like my vonage also then so how would I do that also?

6

Given how now there’s suddenly a whole bunch of other devices you never mentioned, please post a topology drawing of your network.

ok this was how it was setup with smoothwall before I put in the rb750

smoothwall

red interface-outside to isp
green interface- was internal for regular computers
orange interface- for webservers

then from green to a 24 port switch that had vonage, couple computers on it.
then from orange to a other 24 port switch for my web servers.

so now I have everything on 24 port switch to rb750 on port 3.

8

Which probably took down everything, since the RB750 isn’t configured yet to replace the SmoothWall.

How were you planning on using the extra public IP addresses given that everything was behind the SmoothWall, and it can only handle one public IP address?

9

I was going to put a switch from:

outside to 8 port switch then smoothwall then I can connect other computer to get a other IP address.

so how would I get this to work correctly with rb?

but now I want to take down smoothwall and replace it to rb.

Determine what you did on the SmoothWall and use the manual (wiki.mikrotik.com) to implement the same services on the RouterBOARD, I guess. It contains everything about setting up IP addresses, routing, NAT, firewall filters, DHCP etc.

I just re-hooked up my smoothwall because I could not figure out how get this to work.
