Static route with WG302 V2
Hi, I am trying to get a WG302 to work on a different subnet for the wireless. This is how the setup is: WG302 - IP address is 172.16.100.2, DHCP scope is 172.16.100.110 - 254 Default gateway...
The primary DHCP is 172.16.1.x which comes from a Win2K3 domain controller. The DHCP I have configured on the WG302 is 172.16.100.x.
To answer the question about routing, the setup is like this:
The WG302 has an IP address of 172.16.100.2, and is connected to a port on the firewall configured with the IP address of 172.16.100.1. On the firewall a static route has been created for the address 172.16.100.1 to be able to route between the 172.16.1.x and 172.16.100.x subnets. The default gateway of the WG302 is set to 172.16.100.1. So in theory a wireless device which gets an IP of 172.16.100.x from the DHCP on the WG302 should be able to route between the subnets since the default gateway has a route for the two subnets.
Does this clear things up?
