I would like to arrange a network to provide a means of directing packets
to one of a pair of routers, depending on the destination address.
Packets traversing R1 endure SKIP processing, packets traversing R2 are
subjected to NAT. When Host B directs packets to R1 they are SKIP
processed and placed on the private Ethernet. The packets returning to
Host B should be directed to R1 to be SKIP processed before being routed
to the Internet. The plan is to set the Gateway address for the
Win95/8/NT hosts to the FR router which has R2 for its default
route but which learns that the route back to host B is via R1.
[Host B]
|
{Internet}
|
[Router]
RIP II
|
=================Ethernet (public)
| |
[R1] [R2]
gated gated
| |
=================Ethernet (private)
| |
[Host A] [FR] Cisco rip 2
Win 95/8 |
{Elsewhere}
So far I have not been able to get this to work, although I can verify
that R1 is advertising routes and the other routers are listening for
them. A static route added to R1 just does not show up in the other
routers.
Can this work? Can a host route be propagated on the private network?
What might I be doing wrong? Are the host routes being aggregated with
the default routes?
Any tips or suggestions will be welcome.
Thanks
