Bridge 2 Networks with SRX5308 Help
Hello, Here is what I am trying to accomplish. Building A - 192.168.0.x Building B - 192.168.1.x I have a ubiquiti wifi antenna that is connecting both buildings for the SOLE purpose of building B, accessing building A's NAS Drive, 192.168.0.10 I have been told a bunch of how to scenarios, but i cant get it working right as in segmenting each network separate so both DHCP servers do not conflict. I want both networks to remain independant, only a handful of PC's at building B to access the Nas Drive at building A. (A VPN was not able to accomplish this fast enough, even with Gigabit Internet, SMD doesn't like VPN's). So i was told on the srx5308 to plug one of the antenna's into one of the Quad WAN Ports, lets say Wan2.. Give it a /29 IP Address. Then do the same on the other building (which has a non-netgear firewall).. but for now lets concentrate on the setup in building B with the Srx5308. This is what i was told: On the SRX5308 plug the bridge into one of the spare WAN ports and assign a small subnet (e.g. 172.16.10.1/29). Page 127 of the manual tells you how to setup static routes. Problem is, the srx5308 won't let me do this unless i put in a gateway and dns servers on the Wan2 port as far as i can tell. Also do i turn on DHCP on that /29 range or leave it solo and static the IPs in it.. Fwiw, i had this working buy just plugging everything in and using IP ALias's on the windows machines, but the dhcp servers on both ends could obviously not coexist.. I need to keep the network separate but have this one tunnel to get to that nas drive thru the antenna connection (the buildings are approx 900 ft away, the antennas work very very well). Appreciate any assistance.Solved160Views0likes24Comments
