Enable Lan Routing Windows Server 2012

hi!

i'm trying setup rras in windows server 2012 route between 2 networks. have windows server 2012 2 nics , rras installed. installed "lan routing" custom option.

configuration is:

server nic1 - 192.168.1.254 255.255.255.0 (no dfgateway)

server nic2 - 192.168.103.54 255.255.255.0 (no dfgateway)

clients subnet1 - 192.168.1.x 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.254

clients subnet2- 192.168.103.x 255.255.255.0 192.168.103.54

problem client of subnet1 can ping 192.168.1.254 , 192.168.103.54 can't ping clients of subnet2, and backwards  the same problem.

thanks.

your client machines need know how find route other subnet.

1) on client on subnet 1, open command prompt , type:

route add -p 192.168.103.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.254

this adds permanent route tells client go to 192.168.1.254 find network 192.168.103.0

2) on clients on subnet2 type:

route add -p 192.168.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.103.54

make sure clients have appropriate server nic address default gateway , dns.

for example, clients on subnet1:

ip: 192.168.1.x

gateway: 192.168.1.254

dns: 192.168.1.254

  misleading @ best. original post straight forward example of subnet subnet routing. no additional routes required because default routing quite adequate. if @ addresses of static routes provide see same default addresses set (so redundant).

ping not reliable test of connectivity more. built-in firewalls block default. need temporarily disable firewalls of clients test ping (unless enable icmp echo in both directions on clients).
