I posted awhile back on another group explaining my situation. We are trying to bring together two very large networks. So here is the situation.
I have a church I'm trying to help out with a network topology. They have a school and a rectory they want to connect via fiber.
However, the school wants to continue with their outbound internet connection and DHCP server. The rectory also wants to continue with their outbound internet connection and DHCP server.
Consolidation is NOT a possibility.
I'll attach the router config log and a simple diagram of our current setup. But we've decided that we will create 2 VLANs and setup routes between the two internally, on a single Dell Powerconnect 6224 that is supposed to have Layer 3 routing capability.
So before deploying this. We've setup a mock network within our office consisting of 2 Linksys WRT54G routers, 2 computers and 1 Dell Powerconnect 6224 switch. We have setup 2 VLANs and placed 1 PC and 1 router in each VLAN and are attempting to allow the PCs to communicate via routing through each VLAN.
We'll call them VLAN 10 and VLAN 20
On the Dell 6224 we can ping every item on the diagram from the console.
On the VLAN 10 router, we were able to log into the web configuration and ping from it to IP address set to VLAN 20 after we applied a static route to the router from VLAN 10 to VLAN 20.
On the Dell 6224, we have been unable to set the static routes that you can see below in the config. It reports no errors however the route does not appear in the list when typing the command "Show IP route static." We do see a "connected" route.
On the VLAN 10 computer, we have been unable to ping the VLAN 20 computer which is the goal in this scenario. We have set a route on the VLAN 10 router for 192.168.1.0 /24 with a router of 10.0.0.2.
We know we can do this in 5 minutes with a linux box. Perhaps there is some trick to forwarding packets on the 6224?
Here is the .gif of the network diagram:
