eT, yes, cisco is internet modem/router(1.1), linksys runs through that(0.1), I dont think im setup proper then, since i loose internet access when i turn NAT off,
and i have firewall off already with no success, port fwd options failed aswell (or maybe i did wrong)
kubeek, i just seen your post there ima try that next, my router is linksys WRT160N,
is there a good example i can find of how to do routing table?
this will be interesting to learn, i have always wondered and assumed that this is similar to how my internet provider maps its internal networks.
otherwise KISS i may need to get a model number from you and pay up!
Hi
After looking at the linksys manual, perform the following on Linksys:
0. Reset the router back to its default settings. Read the manual on how to do this.
1. Turn off firewall
2. Turn off Nat < -- this also eliminates port forwarding requirement
3. Enable dynamic routing <-- step 2 is supposed to auto enable this
3.1 Enable dynamic routing on Cisco(should already be enabled)
4.0 Make sure DHCP is enabled
4.1 Configure DHCP to server IP addresses in range 192.168.0.10- 250 (exclude IP 1-10)
4.2. Setup DHCP reservation for Media Server. <--so server always gets the same IP.
4.3 Verify IP Config on Media Server: IP address, Gateway address, DNS address.
5. Cisco switch port should be plugged into Linksys WAN port.
5.1 Configure Linksys WAN port to 192.168.1.(a number outside range of Cisco DHCP)
subnet 255.255.255.0
6. Use "Ping" to test communication bewteen PC's and Media Server.
Ping from PC's to Media Server: should be successful.
Ping from Media Server to PC's: should be successful.
Dynamic routing allows route tables to be shared between routers. So you won't need to
Edit the routing table. But dynamic routing needs to also be enabled at the cisco router for this to work.
Also. - this issue has nothing to do with VLANS...
What is the part number for the Cisco?
