fvs336gv3 allowing public IPs

Hi,

We were given a layour 3 IP from our ISP for the WAN  with link IP as x.x.30.108 and Layer 3 IP x.x.30.110 with GW x.x.30.109 subnet 255.252.  Then we have a usable iP .x.126.96/29 with IP range 126.97-102 with subnet mask 255.248.  So I set the WAN IP to the x.x.30.110 IP and configure the router to be in classic mode.  The Netgear FVS gets IP 126.102 with my DHCP as .126.98-101 (I'm leaving 126.97 out of DHCP)

EveI plug a 2nd router into the Netgear and get an IP x.x.126.101 through DHCP however it is still being seen as ip x.x.126.102 from outside of the Internet.  I'm not able to route it so this 2nd router gets full access to the public side where it should be seen as x.x.126.101..

Is this router now design to allow public IP to be outside of NAT?

@baytel,

 

Welcome to our community! 🙂

 

In classical routing mode, the VPN firewall performs routing, but without NAT. To gain Internet access, each computer on your LAN must have a valid static Internet IP address. Please try assigning the public IPs as static and not dynamic on your router or you may plug-in a PC first then set a public IP and see if that will connect to the internet.

 

Please make sure that you are running on the latest firmware too. You may check it here.

 

Regards,

 

John
