Help - two firewalls on same network
Hello,
I'm having issues setting this network up, as I think it should be simple.
I have two firewalls, SRX5308 and UTM 50 and I want to use the SRX5308 as a VPN only and the UTM50 as a DHCP.
- I'm running to network crashes.
Anyone have any suggestions?

If implemented as shown (only one DHCP on the router serving the Internet), and just the VPN gateway on Internet 2 - nothing should crash.
The only problem remaining is that systems on the LAN need to know about the VPN gateway, and a route for the VPN IP subnet (unknown here) must be added pointing to the VPN gateway LAN IP
Thanks,
So i currently have it setup like this:
Main Firewall Setting
IP: 192.168.0.1
SM: 255.255.255.0
DG: 192.168.0.1
DHCP Range: 192.168.0.2-240
VPN Gateway
IP: 192.168.0.10
SM: 255.255.255.0
VPN Clients: 192.168.1.10-20
What route should I map out on the Main Firewall?
Thanks in advance once again.
Well, all your LAN clients are using 192.168.0.1 as the default gateway.
If the VLAN IP subnet is not NATed, but becoming available direct, you need to add a route on the default gatway routing 192.168.1.0/24 (for simplicty, I would not subnet any further) pointing to 192.168.0.10.
