Hello.
I have a lab setup using VirtualBox and I am trying to test this https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ ... 2)usingDNS tutorial because I tried it on a real life setup and it did not work. So far it's not working in the lab also.
This is my lab layout:
VM1 - chr1 ros 7.6 - ether1 bridged to my home lan (192.168.16.0/24) (with dns chr1.nv.lan) (working internet, can ping chr2 via ip or dns)
- ether2 dhcpserver (network 192.168.1.0/24) - virtual switch 1
- ether3 host only adapter
VM2 - chr2 ros 7.6 - ether1 bridged to my home lan (192.168.16.0/24) (with dns chr2.nv.lan) (working internet, can ping chr1 via ip or dns)
- ether2 dhcpserver (network 192.168.2.0/24) - virtual switch 2
- ether3 host only adapter
VM3 - debian1 - ether1 - virtual switch 1 - (dhcpclient with correct network ip - can ping chr1,chr2, working internet)
VM4 - debian2 - ether1 - virtual switch 2 - (dhcpclient with correct network ip - can ping chr2,chr1, working internet)
My goal is exactly what the tutorial helps to achieve, i have two houses, one with a datacenter where I have all my stuff and the other only with a mikrotik router, i want to be able to access the datacenter resources from my second home's lan. Both my houses have dynamic ip from the ISP.
I followed all the steps from the above link, 3 times, both chr routers started with blank config, i only added NAT masquerade to out interface list WAN (no other firewall rules), dhcpclient on eth1, dhcpserver on eth2, interface list LAN with ether2 in it and WAN with ether1 in it.
I can never ping 192.168.99.1 from the client (2nd home) or 192.168.99.2 from the server (1st home with datacenter). The IPsec tunnel is up but the traffic gets routed outside chr1 to my main home lan and obviously the GRE tunnel never gets online.
Did anybody ever had any success with this kind of setup?
