I want to connect 2 networks together below is a diagram of what i want to acheive:
Basically we have a dedicated 10meg lease line to a remote network, on my side we have a checkpoint firewall with the 4th NIC connect to the lease line and on the remote firewall they have their NIC connect to the lease line. from their end they can ping any server on our internal network 10.0.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 from their 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 network.
After i added a static route on our NT checkpoint firewall:
route add 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 10.1.0.1 (gateway address of the remote firewall Interface)
I can ping any server/ip address from our firewall. But the issue i have is no one behind our firewall can ping the 192.168.1.0range of addresses. is there any other route i need to add to our firewall or the remote one.
Our firewall has only one default gateway IP address which is the external Interface. the 10.1.0.1 gatway which i added is the remote firewall’s interface. As my firewall can ping the remote internal network I feel i need to add the route on my firewall – Does anyone know what route i will need to add or any other helpful suggestions for my internal network to be able to see the remote one.
internal net — checkpoint — freebsd— remote
10.0.0.0/16 10.1.0.2/24 10.1.0.1/24 192.168.1.0/24
