MT with two bridges eoip wireless networks

..it is possible to have two eiop wireless networks on a single router.

The following setup:-

site 1 site 2 site 3

MT wlan1 --(PP using EoIP)— MT wlan1
MT wlan2 —(PP using EoIP)— MT wlan1

Site1 - ether1= 10.0.0.1
Site1 - wlan1 = 192.168.1.1

Site2 - ether1= 10.0.0.10
Site2 - wlan1 = 192.168.1.2
Site2 - wlan2 = 192.168.2.1

Site3 - ether1= 10.0.0.20
Site3 - wlan1 = 192.168.2.2

Step 1: To test wireless connectivity:-
From Site1 I can ping Site2, From Site2 I can ping Site1 (192.168.1.x)
From Site2 I can ping Site3, From Site3 I can ping Site2 (192.168.2.x)

Step 2: To test Bridge Setup

Site1 - port set ether1, eoip-tunnel1, bridge=bridge1
set [find interface=ether1] interface=bridge1
Site2 - port set ether1, eoip-tunnel1, bridge=bridge1
port set ether1, eoip-tunnel2, bridge=bridge1
set [find interface=ether1] interface=bridge1
Site3 - port set ether1, eoip-tunnel2, bridge=bridge1
set [find interface=ether1] interface=bridge1

From Site1 I cannot ping Site2 or Site3 (10.0.0.10, 10.0.0.20)
From Site2 I cannot ping Site3 or Site1 (10.0.0.20, 10.0.0.1)
From Site3 I cannot ping Site1 or Site2 (10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.10)

Q: What is wrong? missing?


Other notes:
-Using Atheros wireless cards

  • Manually created static route on all MT’s: add gateway=10.0.0.1

give a few seconds for the router to update..then:-

I can ping from Site1 to Site2
I can ping from Site2 to Site1
I can ping from Site2 to Site3
I can ping from Site3 to Site2

I cannot ping from Site1 to Site3
I can ping from Site3 to Site1

..must be routing issue?

Did you make sure that you assigned the 10.x.x.x IP addresses to the virtual bridge interfaces, and not to the physical ethernet interfaces?
