Hi all,
I'm trying to get very basic routing happening between two locally connected subnets
on Debian Sarge.
I'm doing some disaster recovery planning at work which requires me to test some
replication with two subnets connected by an IPSec tunnel, but for my testing I'm just
routing between the two using VMWare.
Anyway, in my Debian virtual machine, I have 2 NIC's configured as shown below, with
IP forwarding turned on.
/etc/network/options:
ip_forward=yes
spoofprotect=yes
syncookies=no
/etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 172.16.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 172.16.1.0
broadcast 172.16.1.255
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 172.16.2.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 172.16.2.0
broadcast 172.16.2.255
On both of the other virutal machines, they are set up with the appropriate gateway
address of 172.16.1.1 and 172.16.2.1.
>From the machine on 172.16.1.10, I can ping 172.16.1.1 and 172.16.2.1, but I cannot
>ping the machine on 172.16.2.10.
>From the machine on 172.16.2.10, I can ping 172.16.2.1, but not 172.16.1.1 or the
>other machine on 172.16.1.10.
Am I doing something wrong here by just enabling IP forwarding to allow the routing to
occur? Or do I need something like Quagga for this to work?
Regards,
Pete
