Can't get extra networks to route through to the Internet
Hi, Not sure what I'm missing here, however, I can't get two networks to route through this router to the Internet. The existing LAN network already on the router works. Originally 192.168.0....

I'm going to assume that everyone has read my reply and run for the hills.
I'm also going to assume that the Netgear Nighthawk that I have will only NAT the network specified in the LAN settings. Therefore not a full router but a cut down version of a routing function. Understandably ideal for home use. Not what I need.
This appears to be the logical conclusion based on the results earlier.
If I'm wrong please let me know. Otherwise this may help someone in the future.
In the meantime I'm going to set up NAT on the router south of the Netgear Nighthawk. Messy - not ideal - but I need to get a move on with what I'm doing.

Wow - OK
Device -->Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router (BB for short maybe?)
Outside Interface IP --> DHCP Provided by ISP
Inside Interface IP on Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router -->192.168.0.1
DHCP to Internal Network provided by Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router --> 192.168.0.2 to 250 on a 24 bit subnet mask
Additional Static Routes added to Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router -->192.168.10.0/25 and 192.168.20.0/29
Layer 1 is irrelevant. All using RJ45 Copper cables
ARP tables in each device clearly show the full MAC of each connected device so Layer 2 isn't an issue
PING checklist | |||
Source | Destination | Successful | |
Device with IP of 192.168.0.14 directly connected to Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router | 8.8.8.8 | Yes | |
Outside Interface of Cisco 1921 router 192.168.0.251 | 8.8.8.8 | Yes | |
Arista switch with SVI IP address of 192.168.10.127 | 8.8.8.8 | No | |
Arista switch with SVI IP address of 192.168.10.127 | 192.168.0.1 | Yes | This is to the Netgear D7000v2 |
Client attached to Arista switch with IP of 192.168.10.12 | 8.8.8.8 | No | |
Client attached to Arista switch with IP of 192.168.10.12 | 192.168.0.1 | Yes | |
Cisco switch with SVI IP address of 192.168.20.1 | 8.8.8.8 | No | |
Cisco switch with SVI IP address of 192.168.20.1 | 192.168.0.1 | Yes | |
Client attached to Cisco switch with IP of 192.168.20.6 | 8.8.8.8 | No | |
Client attached to Cisco switch with IP of 192.168.20.6 | 192.168.0.1 | Yes |
Connection order |
|
Final destination is: | Internet |
router directly connected to the Internet | Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router |
Internally connected to | Cisco 1941 router |
which is connected on one interface to | Arista switch |
and connected on the other interface | Cisco switch |
Default routes |
|
Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router | default to ISP |
| static route 192.168.10.0/25 Next hop 192.168.0.250 |
| static route 192.168.20.0/29 Next hop 192.168.0.250 |
Cisco 1941 | default route back to 192.1689.0.1 |
| Routing table already populated with connected networks therefore further static network configuration not required at this time. |
Arista switch | default route back to Cisco 1941 |
Cisco switch | default route back to Cisco 1941 |
Conclusion
The Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router is not translating the new networks.
Since there isn't a specific NAT option in the menu (outbound) then I can only assume PAT is being used. There does not appear to be a selection in the interface for PAT.
There is nowhere to configure the PAT pool or to interrogate the routing table on the Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router.
Is there a terminal / CLI interface that can be interrogated?
Sarcasm not required. An element of respect might be nice.
The level of detail you demanded (?!?!) bears absolutely no relevance to the question.
If you don't wish to help sort out what is wrong with the Netgear router then I sill simply accept your answer, close the question and open up another question for someone else to point out where I can find NAT / PAT within the Netgear D7000v or Broadband Router or alternatively, I will know that I purchased the wrong device.
