Hi all,
I am a newbie and I am looking for some help.
I need to VPN into customer networks and want to set up a Mikrotik RB750 or similar in each client site. Once I vpn in I then need access to the entire lan.
Would I be on the correct track thinking like this?
- I do not want to interrupt the lan by physically placing the Mikrotik between the customer existing router and his lan. I would then plug in the Mikrotik to the local lan using ether1 and ether2, into any 2 ports on the existing switch.
- Create interface ether1 as wan and ether2 as lan.
- Set internal/external i.p. addresses
- Create bridge
- Set system identity
- Set System – Logging
a. Add IPSEC to Action - memory for help in logging vpn issues. - Change clock and time zone
- Create an address and a static i.p.
- Create DNS client
- Do not create DHCP server as one already exists
- Create DHCP Client in order to obtain I.P. from router
a. This will also auto populate routes - Create bridge and assign ports
- Enable default route
- Enable NAT as srcnat = masquerade using bridge1
- Set up firewall protection rules
- Ensure I can see the local lan and can ping 8.8.8.8
All done. I can ping external as well as internal. What are my next steps? Any help would be much appreciated.
