Mikrotik as an SSTP Client to a Windows 2008 R2 Server

It’s a long story that I will spare you from hearing - But I have a network, several actually, that will be connecting to a Windows 2008 R2 server at a data center using SSTP. RRAS is installed on the server and I can connect flawlessly with any Windows client and ping the private IP address of the server. The public IP is basically firewalled off from anything other than 443 - and even then only from the static publics of these few networks.

I have created an SSTP Client Interface under PPP and it too can connect to this server. It also gets a private IP on the same subnet as the private IP of the server. If I use the ping tool on the Mikrotik and specify the SSTP Client interface, I can ping the private IP of the server. However when I ping from any machine behind the Mikrotik I get nothing.

I have created a route to the remote subnet using the SSTP Client interface as the gateway, seems to make no difference.

192.168.2.0/24 (LAN) – 192.168.2.1 (Mikrotik) – 192.168.253.11 (SSTP Interface) ----TUNNEL----192.168.253.1 (Remote Server)

I also made sure to add a NAT rule that traffic from 192.168.2.0/24 bound for 192.168.253.0/24 is ‘Accepted’ so it didn’t get NAT’d.

What Am I missing to get traffic from the .2 to .253 subnet??

Thanks.

Try “ping 192.168.2.1” on your SSTP server. It seems like your SSTP server doesn’t have the proper route for your client’s subnet.
