Network Conceptual Problem
Hey all, Just need a little help from the network brains out there. I am a lowly CCNA, so I setup my home network easily enough - but I'm having some problems figuring out how to inspect all tra...
You know, I can't believe I didn't think of that - so thank you, I complete forgot about the other setup options.
However, it didn't work. I moved the R7000 inside the ASA and am successful at using the access point and getting all traffic (Wi-Fi and internal) inspected by the ASA - but I can't access the ReadyShare device.
The AP setup option only lets allows you to setup an admin password and a Wi-Fi SSID - and even if I could somehow setup the ReadyShare device, when the device is internal, it doesn't get a public IP as the ASA NAT's between public and private. So, I did consider configuring the R7000 for Bridge mode, and add it to the internal VLAN, but I think I'm going to have the same problem with a non-public routable address to reach the ReadyShare.
So, yeah, pretty frustrating that I can't just leave the R7000 outside the ASA and add a static route in, 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 and solve the entire problem.
It's my understanding that ReadyShare should work in AP Mode. Here are a couple of threads.
Readyshare not working in AP mode
Re: r7000 readyshare when used as access point
With regards to public access, are you familiar with port forwarding? The R7000 doesn't need a public address. Just set up the ASA to forward the ports used by Readyshare to the R7000.
