Re: win2000as routing

If you are trying to use this method to route between the two sites, you
are using the wrong approach. You do not need to configure routing manually.
Manual config fails because the interface does not exist until you make the
connection.

The correct procedure is to use RRAS and set up a demand-dial interface
to act as the connection point, not the default dialup interface. You link
the subnet route to this interface (using the new static route wizard). When
the remote site dials in, it connects to the demand-dial interface and the
subnet route becomes active. (It is stored in the registry). When the
connection is broken, the extra route is removed from the routing table.

Check the entries in help on lan to lan or router to router connections.

Hi,

Does Win 2000 Advanced Server have some bugs in routing?
I have Ethernet card and modem on the server and I have created
Incoming connections. It gives IP address to the calling PC.
I have created permanent route (or even non persistant one) to the
calling network with modem as a gateway. After the calling PC
disconnects, and calls again, my routing doesn't work. I can only
ping remote IP address, but it is actually localhost (because routing
table is wrong).

For example:
Ethernet card IP address is 192.168.0.2 with default gateway on
192.168.0.1. Modem IF is 0x1000000.
After remote PC connects, my modem has IP 192.168.1.1 and the remote
has 192.168.1.2

Remote network has this parameters 192.168.2.0/24 and all PC's have
gateway 192.168.2.1 (the PC with the modem)
Now I create route:
route add 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 IF 0x10000000

Now I can ping remote network (192.168.2.1-254)

After I disconnects and connects again, my routing table is all
wrong. It says that my route for network 192.168.2.0 has gateway
127.0.0.1 Even after remote PC connects again, it doesn't resolve
the routing table.

For now the solution was:
route -f
route add 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.2 IF 0x10000000
But with this I don't have gateway for my ethernet card any more.

This is a bug!
