I have just set in a server that is acting as a firewall, it has 2 network cards:
eth0 - this is outgoing to the internet
192.168.0.2
255.255.255.0
Default gw 192.168.0.1 - This is the router
eth1
63.174.233.2
255.255.255.0
eth1:1
63.166.92.2
255.255.254.0
The problem I am having is, I cannot ping from a host in 63.174.233.x to a host in 63.166.92.x network, when I do I get the following (this ping request is coming from 63.174.233.21):
Code:
sh-2.05b$ ping 63.166.92.26
PING 63.166.92.26 (63.166.92.26) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 63.174.233.2: icmp_seq=1 Redirect Host(New nexthop: 63.166.92.26)
From 63.174.233.2: icmp_seq=2 Redirect Host(New nexthop: 63.166.92.26)
--- 63.166.92.26 ping statistics ---
7 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 6023ms
sh-2.05b$
If I go from the 63.166.92.0 network to the 63.174.233.0 network it works perfect, I will list my routing table below:
Code:
root@ids:/var/log# route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
63.174.233.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
63.166.92.0 * 255.255.254.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 2 0 0 eth0
root@ids:/var/log#
If anyone can give me some help here, thanks.
Edit:
I just found out, on the 63.166.92.0 network I was trying to ping wireless radio's and they are the ones giving me the problem, they worked fine before I put in the firewall and now I cannot ping them, I can still ping the routers that are behind the radios so I am going through:
me(63.174.233.21) -> firewall eth1(63.174.233.2) -> firewall eth1:1(63.166.92.2) -> wirelessRadio(63.166.92.24) -> endclient router(63.174.233.25
So I can ping the wirelessRadio but no the endclient router?
