Can i use Routing and Remote Access to connection two internal networks.

We need to connect 2 internal lans using our windows 2003 server, can i use
routing and remote access to do this or do i need isa server, or is setting
a network bridge the answer?

lan1:

192.168.0.*
255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.0.5 (ADSL Router)
dns1: 192.168.0.1 (2003 server)
dns2: 192.168.0.5 (adsl router)


lan2:

192.168.102.*
255.255.255.0
no gateway or dns set


i need clients on lan 2 to be able to access 192.168.0.1 file sharing and
the internet through 192.168.0.5, i do not need the connection to be secure
as it is all in one building.

is routing and remote access all i need?
how should i configer the clients on lan2?

Many Thanks in advance.

Yes, you can do this with 2 NICs in the server by implementing LAN routing
in RRAS:

1. Machines on lan2 must use the server's 192.168.102.* NIC as a default
gateway.

2. The ADSL router must have a static route pointing to the server's
192.168.0.* NIC to reach the 192.168.102.* network.

I have enabled routing and remote access using lan routing and set a test
machine on lan 2 as

192.168.10.2.50 and set the gateway to 192.168.102.254 (the 192.168.102.*
card in the server)

at this point i would expect to be able to ping 192.168.0.1 (server) from
the lan2 client, but i cant?

I do not need to router to be able to see the 192.168.102.* clinets, but for
the 192.168.102.* clients to be able to see the router, do i still need to
set the static route?


Thanks again.

Ian.

There ya go. Without the static route, your ping will reach the 192.168.0.*
network, but you will not receive the reply. The static route is necessary
in order for traffic, including ping echoes, to find its way back to the
192.168.102.* network.
