We have a recently installed Point-To-Point private connection from TWC.
I am trying to create a simple gateway between both points so we can pass traffic between our production network and office network.
Simple, no firewall, no NAT translation, no VPN, just plain old routing.
I purchased 2 Ubiquiti Edge routers (https://www.ubnt.com/edgemax/edgerouter-poe/) one for each end.
I have reached out to the Ubiquiti support but I still haven’t heard back from them.
I have them configured as outlined in the attached PDF.
It seems like I have the configuration correct but I am unable to pass the traffic down to the actual network.
I can get from one LAN IP to the other but never past the LAN IP on the router down to the actual LAN.
I wouldn’t think I would have to add any route to the network itself since it’s “directly attached” to the router.
On the laptops (which is my simulated LAN) their default gateway is the router so it should route any request back to the router. (See the attached PDF)
So it looks like the forward and backward paths are correct but it still won’t route.
Is there a hidden rule that looks at the IP and says “Hey this is a private IP and it shouldn’t be receiving a request via the WAN port” and then blocks it?
The firewall is completely turned off so I don’t think it’s blocking anything but I’m not sure.
I’ve tried several variations of routes (with routes, without routes, changing the default gateway of the routes, etc) but I’m getting nowhere.
Any observations on how I should be configuring this? What am I missing?
