Need Network Engineer for Small Project
Need Network Engineer to consult/guide for a few hours on a small project. Existing: Three node mesh VPN between three locations. Been in-place since 2012. Recently upgraded VPN devices (Linksys LRT-224's) as a part of the next step. However, the VPN device at one node is not the default gateway for that LAN segment - the old device is as it is bound to a public IP address that the customer's customers access by IP address and not name. Added static routes to LAN devices to route traffic to the other two nodes via the VPN device. This has been working since September. This doesn't mean we can't reconfigure if we have to. Next Step: Customer wants two ISP connections using different media. Old ISP is Cox Business. New ISP is CenturyLink. Have installed new devices at office and data center and created second VPN tunnel between these two nodes. Unable to get traffic to reliably use second VPN. I can get the traffic to go down the CenturyLink VPN, but only by configuring the CenturyLink devices with the same IP addresses as the Cox devices.
