I have T-MOBILE 5G Home Internet.
I have a Cisco 3560. I have a few VLANS, my main vlan is 108.
interface Vlan108
description DUNCARRICK-NETWORK
ip address 192.168.8.245 255.255.255.0
I have a bunch of ports in access mode in vlan 108. PCs get IPs on 192.168.8.0/24 with .245 as the gateway.
The traffic then goes out port Gi0/1.
I have a default route
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.100.1
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
description SWITCH-TO-TMOBILE-LINK
no switchport
ip address 192.168.100.2 255.255.255.0
it goes to the TMobile gateway, 192.168.2.1.
All works well.
I just added Astound broadband. So before I get rid of my Tmobile I want the Astound to work the same way.
I configured port 24.
interface GigabitEthernet0/24
description SWITCH-TO-ASTOUND
no switchport
ip address 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0
I removed the default route and added a new one:
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1
The Astound router is a CODA-5712 (1B) and its IP is 192.168.0.1
The Astound device kinda sucks. It wont allow me to add a /24 return route to the switch, so I add a bunch of single IPs.
destination IP 192.168.8.245 : Gateway 192.168.0.2
destination IP 192.168.8.157 : Gateway 192.168.0.2
etc, etc ….. From a PC on VLAN 108 I cannot ping 8.8.8.8.
From the switch, ping 8.8.8.8
works.
But ping 8.8.8.8 source vlan 108
does not work.
From the PC a trace to 8.8.8.8 shows :
192.168.8.245
192.168.0.1
and then stops there. So I do get to the astound device.
From the astound device I can ping the PC (.157) and any other IP for which I added a return route.
I looked on the Astound device, I couldn’t find any other relevant config options, like NAT.
I feel that my VLAN is somehow not being NATted by the Astound device.
Of course if I join the Astound wifi or plug a cable from the PC into the Astound, I get a 192.168.0 address and that works just fine to the internet.
So in summary, no major changes to the switch, just a new default route pointing to the Astound instead of the TMobile.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much.
