Cisco Routers :: RV120W / Bridge Mode And Multiple Static IP Addresses
Sep 11, 2011
I am trying to configure a BT Business ADSL Router (BT2700HGV) to work in bridge mode in front of a Cisco RV120W router and cannot get this to work.I have followed numerous posts I have come across in configuring the BT router for bridged mode and this has been configured as follows:
ATM Encapsulation - Bridge LLC
DSL and ATM - VPI=0, VCI=38 (also tried VCI=35)
ATM PVC Search - Disabled
Connection Type - Direct IP (DHCP or Static)
Disable Routing - Yes
There are also some other options on the same configuration page for 'Broadband IP Network' (which I have left on DHCP) and also a 'Public IP' which has been left blank. After setting the above options this removes the LAN DHCP configuration, the PPPoA logon details and sets the internal IP address of the BT router to 192.168.1.254.
My understanding of 'Bridge' mode is that this router will now act simply as a modem and configuration details such as logon details and WAN IP address information are configured using the Cisco RV120W router?The configuration of the Cisco router is as follows:
Internet Connection Type - PPPoE
Username and Password set
Authentication Type - Auto-Negotiate (options here are PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2)
Routing Mode - Router (Other option is 'Gateway (NAT))' - I have tried both options
The WAN interface on the Cisco router is connected to one of the LAN ports on the BT router. The 'Broadband' light is on the BT router but the 'Internet' light isn't. The WAN status on the Cisco router is 'Connecting'. I am sure I am missing something simple.We have been assigned a range of static IP addresses from BT so am trying to get these working too (x.x.x.24/29 - 5 usable statics), another option available (other than PPPoE) for configuring the WAN interface on the Cisco router is a 'Static IP', not sure if this is the correct option but have tried messing with it, I have tried assigning a static IP from the range given to us (.30 - the router address specified by BT) along with the subnet mask, however don't know what to put as the default gateway, would this be the peer address (but assume that would change anyway), in any case, using the 'Static IP' option does not give an option to supply the BT logon details which I assume is required?
In bridged mode, what is the peer address assigned to, the BT router or the Cisco router?Does the BT router need to be configured with a public IP address?
Is it possible to have 2 IP addresses on wan and setup specific routing rules for each IP ? Or do I need to use another router for that and if which one ?
We have a RV120W Wireless-N VPN Firewall and we want to configure the router in brigde mode (transparent). Because we have another Firewall, use for filtering and default gateway on the LAN. The ISP provide IP address by DHCP, so we must connect the internet connexion to the WAN interface. But How can we do for connected the RV120W to our firewall? The router mode on the RV120w allows-it to make this configuration?
I want to know if it is possible to put the cisco small business router rv120w into bridge mode so that I can connect it to a linksys e2500 access point. Is this even possible or am I wasting my time?I have 4 devices connected to the cisco router that I want to be able to bridge to the linksys e2500 which has the internet connection.
I need to configure a rv120w in order to make it work at the same time for data and digital tv. The fact is that the set top box for the idtv needs an IP address that will be delivered directly from the ISP. So I need to setup one LAN port that will be bridged to the WLAN connection (the stb will be connected to that lan port), and another port that will be connected to the LAN swicth so that the rest of the network has internet access. I can't see anywhere a way to create such a bridge. Quite disappointing as it's possible to do so on open source platforms such as openWRT..
I've got an ASA which has a number of contexts. They all share the same external interface, and in the interest of saving addresses I'm wondering if the standby address for each context is really necessary. I know that in active/passive the standby address is what allows the two to communicate and monitor that particular interface, however, in active/active I don't see the point as the context is either going to be on one or the other.
Can the rv120W be configured as a wireless bridge? We have a need to configure a vpn connection to a remote building but will need to connect the router via an existing wireless network.
I have a RV120W used to provide VPN access to several industrial devices. Some of these devices are assigned IP address via DHCP in the router. One cannot do DHCP, so it has a self-determined static IP.
The VPN works well for all the devices that are assigned IP's. However, it does not allow me to connect to the device that has a static IP. I can connect to it fine when I am on the LAN or WLAN, but cannot ping it via the VPN.
I am looking at replacing my existing Netgear Wireless router, and I am thinkg of using a RV120W.My ISP requires PPPoE (uname/pword) and my wife's company requires we have a static IP on our side for VPN connections.Does the RV120W meet these requirements? In what I have found online, I see that the unit does static IPs and PPPoE, but cant find anything that confirms it will do both at the same time.
I have four E4200 units on my network, each with an unique IP address, in bridge mode to act as a wireless mesh across my entire building. They are all connected to my central L3 switch, via their Internet ports.
Is it possible to enable the Guest network on each unit, to create a 'Guest Wifi' mesh (providing that I allow the 192.168.33.0 network to route across my network fabric), or will this not work because each indivudual AP will be assigning IP address 192.168.33.1 as it's gateway address meaning that I would have four distinct MAC addresses within the network, each trying to claim that they are IP 192.168.33.1?
I've put in an SRP-527W for a client and got it working fine. However, it's not connecting using the 5 static IP addresses BT gave me. Where do i input the 5 static IP's on the router that it should connect using?
I've installed RV042 for a client of mine. For next two months everything worked without any problems. The issue I've been experiencing lately is when I assign a static IP address to the PC it won't have internet access. Once I allow it to have a dynamically assigned IP then it works fine. The IP I assign isn't part of the DHCP range.
I have an unusual deployment scenario which may require the use of a SRP-521W, the scenario is as follows:Temporary Setup:Cisco 857 As the ADSL router until Ethernet Hand-off is installedMultiple IP addresses delivered on the ADSL WAN serviceCisco 857 put into Bridge Mode and connected to SRP-521W WAN portCisco 521W handles the Authentication and RoutingCheck Point Firewall System connected to SRP-521W LAN-1Check Point Firewall has WAN IP 203.XXX.XXX.XXXCisco UC-540W Connected to SRP-521W LAN-2Cisco UC-540W has WAN IP 203.XX.XX.XX If you understand the above scenario, I am curious if this can be done and if so how? I need to keep the networks totaly separate and the only thing they would have in common is the Cisco SRP-521W.It should also be noted that the SRP-521W Is being used because the ADSL service is only temporary whilst the Fibre Build is completed and the carrier provides an Ethernet Hand-Off, then the Internet service will change to this type of presentation and the ADSL router will be relegated to the dark world of loneliness.I have gone through the router and have been playing around with the settings, the issue Is I have nothing in the LAB work up that can allow me to replicate this environment and test it before deployment... So, how to reduce the amount of trail and error I have to encounter to get it to work.
If there are any small business routers that offer one-to-one NAT? I have several public IP addresses assigned to me by CenturyLink. I have two servers that provide email and web hosting for two different domains. I want to put the client machines on one VLAN (VLAN Z) and assign it a public IP address (to keep server traffic separate). I want to put each server on its own VLAN (VLANs X & Y) and assign each server its own public IP address. I need the router to be able to provide a firewall and port forwarding for each VLAN. I also need to be able to route traffic between VLANs so the clients on VLAN Z can access their email and the websites on VLANs X and Y. I also need to be able to route DNS traffic between VLANs so each server can provide name resolution for their respective domains.
So, is this possible with a small business router or do I need to look at something different? I'm fairly certain this configuration is not possible with my current Cisco RVS4000. What it boils down to is I need a router that is capable of having multiple public IP addresses on the same interface and to forward those public addresses to private VLAN subnets. This would be one-to-one NAT if I understand it correctly..
We have just setup a new RV042G firewall. The customer has multiple public IP addresses and we need to allow RDP access for at least 2 of the Public IP addresses. I only see a way to open ports for the one IP assisgned to the WAN. I temporarily did a one to one NAT for the second public IP to NAT to the private IP but that pretty much opens everything which is not ideal from a security standpoint. How can we setup multiple IP addresses on this firewall?
The client has a Cisco RVS4000. There are 3 Internet devices need to be accessed from the outside and will use one public IP for one device. I don't see any options to setup on Cisco RVS4000 to do 3 NATs. If Cisco RVS4000 doesn't work in this situation, which router will do?
I have a customer that has an RSV4000 Router. The customer has also purchased a block of 5 usable public IP addresses. I need to be able to assign these public IP addresses to printers either by configuring a static IP on each printer directly or thru IP mapping or some other method. Does the RSV4000 support using multiple public IP addresses and if so what configuration is needed in the router for the printers to be seen by the outside world.
if possible with the RV042.Primary External IP address uses port forwards for some ports, all okay.I would like to have other external ip addresses assigned to machines on my lan.Basic host multiple web servers, on different IP addresses, using port 80. [code]
From what i am reading, it looks like the RV042 can do this, but I am not real clear what my rules should look like.
I would think my high priority rule for each external IP address would be to deny all traffic first for each machine on the lan.Then create one entry with source 202.x.x.2 port 80 -> 192.168.168.2 ?
How should I set my rules to do this, and what settings should I have on the Nic of the second machine?
I have an ADSL connection and have configured the PPPoE subinterface on WAN1 (ADSL) this connection has a static IP, and I know that the ISP gives that to me through DHCP however I have 4 or 5 additional IP addresses also provided to me on that same link, and they are not given to me via DHCP.
How do I configure this router to have multiple fixed IP addresses on a PPPoE interface?
I also need to port forward some ports for each of the IP's but I assume this will be easy after i have the IP addresses setup.
is it possible to share the same network segment like my LAN for mobile users? In a so called bridge mode? I got a VPN tunnel to a customer from my local network and i need to access it within the mobile access. I can not change the VPN Site to Site tunnel.
My ISP insists that in order for me to have a home network use their router/modem ("2-Wire") for internet access, I must make my own network router act as a bridge since their modem is acting as the router. I.e. she said put your router into bridge mode. I don't know how to do that and Linksys won't offer assistance.
I have 8 RVs4000's to built a test system with. On each side of the network is 2 servers, both with 2 NIC's. Both are on different /24 networks.
The idea is to simulate a WAN link, with the RVS4000's G1 & G2 running in "Gateway" mode to simulate the WAN. All other RVS4000's will be in Router mode ('R1,R2...etc..') All networks in /24 range. As I understand it, the RVS4000 CANNOT take 2 diverse networks on the LAN side: - ie 192.168.168.1 & 10.1.1.1 on the LAN side. The NIC's on the server only need to communicate to the similar type of addresses on the other side - 192.168.168.1 on server 1 to 192.168.170.2 on server 2, but NOT 192.168.168.1 to 10.1.2.1 on server 2. The G1 & G2 link is so that all communications are routed between this link - as a testing point.
So, my questions are this: 1) Will this work? Is there any easier way of doing this? (Bear in mind this is the only equipment i have to do this). 2) Is the static routing I have thought of work? (see below)
I know using the RVS4000's inbuilt RIP may be easier, but I've never configured RIP routing. As this is a test environment, using static routing would be enough to get it going. No security lock down is required, all I'm trying to enable is for the servers to communicate with each other (NIC1 on both servers e.g 10.1.1.1 on server 1 to 10.1.2.1 on NIC 1server 2, and NI 2 on server 1 192.168.168.1 to NI 2 on server 2 192.168.170.1) The 10.1.x.x networks DO not need to talk to the 192.168.x.x networks. THe G1 & G2 link is just for testing - but all communications must pass through here and be routed to their relevant networks on the other side.
I installed DD-WRT on my router and placed it in bridge mode, configuring it with what I thought was my Androids IP address for the gateway. I tried with the Android IP address identified through cmyip.org, 208.54.32.156, and with the one identified through ipconfig command, 192.168.43.1. Neither address was successful. Also, I am unable to access my router using the IP address that I manually assigned to it.provide some assistance on the process of bridging from an Android to a wired PC through a router, Linksys WRT54G v3,
In setup for old RV042 (V1), when updating / adding Mac addresses, the table is always sorted by IP addresses. But in the new oneRV042 (V3) I have, even with latest firmware 4.2.1.02 the list is random, thereby increasing the chance of user entering DUPLICATE IP addr with diff Mac addr. That will result in conflict.If the firmware sorts the DHCP entries by ip addresses, user would be able to catch duplicate ip errors even if the system does not flag the errors. All Cisco smart engineers can you all get the dhcp entries SORT by ip addresses.
how to switch between my 5 new static IP addresses that I purchased (on a monthly basis now) from my ISP. I need them for my business so that I can send out more than the 1,000 emails per day from the one IP address to all of my customers which total a little over 1,500 now. Unfortunately I'm quite computer iliterate when it comes to understanding even the basics of computer terminology, etc. My ISP explained to me that if I purchased the bundle of 5 static IPs, then I could in essence send out 5,000 emails per day, which is plenty.
I want to turn off DHCP and setup static IP addresses, but have some questions about applying the information to my specific system.I have a Cisco Wireless Router, 1-wired computer (windows 7) and 2-wireless computers (1-XP and the other is Windows 7). I also have a dual wireless print server, a Roku box, a Wii, a Kindle Fire, and Vonage which is connected between my cable modem and router (this was the preferred installation method by Vonage).I have ran IPCONFIG /All and have all the addresses. My concern is what to use as a static address for my router first off, and then how I go about picking IP addresses for the computers and devices, and how to set then up both at the router and at the computer or device. Also, do I need any IP address ranges for any of this? I'd also like to make sure it would be possible to setup this system with the Vonage adapter connected between the cable modem and router as it's setup now.
We have both a Comcast and Verizon connection at our school. They are going into a Sonicwall NSA5500. The configuration is such that if the primary - Comcast - fails then the secondary - Verizon - will pickup the internet traffic. The issue we are having is with local Verizon customers. When we got our IP address from verizon it was a /24 subnet with a gateway starting at .1
I thought this was strange as every other time I have gotten a block of static IP addresses from an ISP it has been a /29 or /28 at the most. But the ISP confirmed that this is what we were supposed to get and it should not cause problems.
A local business we deal with happens to be on our subnet with the same next hop Gateway. When I perform a traceroute to them, the traffic goes directly out the Verizon WAN interface to our common gateway, then to the local business. This, all while the Comcast Interface is our dedicated primary for all traffic.
I spoke with Sonicwall and they explained that the firewall is simply taking the most efficient path which makes sense to me in some regard but is still confusing why it would use the interface when policy says it is a failover.
Now, this local business tries to send us email with their on premise Exchange - we also have Exchange. The emails will sit in their queue indefinitely and ultimately fail to reach us. If I disable the Verizon interface the emails come in perfectly fine - even some in their queue will immediately come through once I disable it. I thought this was a DNS issue but it is not or at least our DNS is all configured correctly where we have no other problems with email. Our MX records utilize the static IPs from Comcast - nothing is using our static Verizon addresses.
I purchased a wireless bridge D-Link DAP-1522 (IP fix 192.168.0.50) to share the Internet connection to two remote devices: WD TV Live HD (IP fix 192.168.0.52) and a Samsung BD P2500 player (IP fix 192.168.0.51: to try the BD-Live) but when I plug it into my network I have an IP conflict and I can not navigate anywhere, even by the computer which control the Netgear router (IP 192.168.0.1 DHCP range 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.49).
I tried with all fixed IP (192.168.0.xxx Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway 192.168.0.1 DNS 192.168.0.1), but nothing to do, I have the same problem: after a few minutes after plugged the network cable into BD player the network falls.With wired connection (10 m of patch cable!!!) Samsung BD P2500 have no problem (DHCP and IP fix).
Then look closely in the information relating to devices connected to the Netgear router I noticed that all devices connected through the bridge DAP-1522 have the different IP but same MAC address and I think this could be the cause of the problem that creates the Blu Ray when it's connected to the network through the bridge, because he is not identified with any name but only as UNKNOWN as the bridge (a problem that WD Live not seen: same MAC address but is identified by name as WDTVLIVE).
How can I make the MAC addresses from the bridge will be recognized separately from my router/modem Netgear?In the settings of the bridge I noticed that you can enable or disable MAC address cloning, but if the off I would expect that cloning was not done and instead all the devices are identified by the Netgear router with the MAC address of the access bridge.The DAP-1522 masked the MAC address of device that are plugged into bridge.The router has the latest available firm while the original bridge has version 1.20 (the penultimate version available).
I used to use a CentOS self-made server for intranet for my little office, but I bouth few days ago a Cisco 861 router to replace the linux box.
1. I have 2 public IP classes from my ISP. 1 class is limitted to 80mbit upload, the other to 30mbit upload. So I need some sort of DNAT to be able to know exactly which intranet computer uses big internet and which one limitted internet. 2. I need DHCP server and with static IP addresses (one computer must always have the same IP address, etc).. i have my needs for this. 3. Also I need external access to some servers inside (web, ftp, etc) [code]
So far so good, all looks simple and I can achieve this in 2 hours on a centos linux box (correct routes, ip forwarding enabled and few iptables rules for NAT/SNAT/DNAT).
But on this brand new Centos router well, i'm not even successful in pinging the outside world, nor the inside world I'm tired of reading the forums, the documentation..i want (at first) a simple scenario: vlan+dhcp, fa4 with 1 public ip address and ACCESS to the real world. I wasn't able to achieve not even that much. [code]
