Hi there. i was trying to create a gateway having one
ethernet card(10.0.0.2) and a wireless nic(10.0.1.1).
I wanted this gateway to act between a
laptop(10.0.1.5) and another pc acting as a
firewall/gateway(10.0.0.1).
10.0.0.1-wired----10.0.0.2
gateway
10.0.1.1---wireless---10.0.1.5
Somehow i cant ping from the laptop to the 10.0.0.1
host.i can ping from laptop to the gateway and from
gateway to 10.0.0.1.i have done gateway_enable="YES"
in /etc/rc.conf.
Here's how my routing table looks at the gateway.
------------------------------------------------------
Routing tables
Internet:
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire
default 10.0.0.1 UGSc 1 422 fxp0
10/24 link#1 UC 2 0 fxp0
10.0.0.1 0:e0:29:24:4d:d4 UHLW 4 7 fxp0 1047
10.0.0.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 264 fxp0
10.0.1/24 link#7 UC 0 0 wi0
localhost localhost UH 1 2 lo0
------------------------------------------------------
i tried to observe if my ping from the laptop is
reaching the 10.0.0.1 machine at all by running tcp
dump there.
i got:
testbed1-pc.1028>10.0.0.255.3661 : udp 80
testbed1-pc.1028>10.0.0.255.3661 : udp 80
.........
[Here testbed1-pc is the name of the gateway]
Does this tell anything?i am new to all this so have
no clue.
when i run tcpdump at my gateway and ping the laptop
from 10.0.0.1 i see on the screen:
arp who-has 10.0.1.5 tell 10.0.0.1
..........
10.0.0.2.1028>10.0.0.255.3661> udp 80
....................
Would appreciate any help a lot.
Thanks in advance,
Vinod
