Fri May 22, 2020 2:15 pm

hi every one
you have two routerboards
the first one RB1 with ip=50.50.50.1
the second RB2 with ip =50.50.50.2

I think that's not possible at OSI layer 3+ (IP addresses).
You could do it in the firewall with port forwarding or traffic forwarding to interface etc.

Without a bridge, and 2 routers in the same subnet .... routing might not work unless RB1 routes for that subnet.and the PC is in another subnet.
Proxy-ARP and masquerade might make it all work however.

You can connect to RB2 by using the Telnet tool in RB1. (Telnet, SSH , MAC telnet)
For Winbox access enable ROMON on RB1 and RB2. In Winbox do "connect to Romon" and select RB1. Then in the discover list RB2 will be available for connection.
For web access , enable the Web proxy in RB1. Use RB1 as proxy server in the PC, or redirect HTTP requests to the Web proxy in RB1

You need to route the traffic.

so on RB1 set the IP on eth1 to be 50.50.50.1/24

PC is on 50.50.50.2

Now on RB1 set IP on eth4 to be 50.50.60.1/24
Now on RB2 set IP on its eth1 to be 50.50.60.2/24

Make its default route 50.50.60.1


Now on PC you can get to 50.50.60.2 (assuming PC has default route via 50.50.50.1

Hope that helps
Nick
