Re: Default gateway for RAS

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Go back to the Microsoft setting and you should not assign default gateway to the Internal NIC.

Posting the routing table with the internet NIC as default gateway may help.

I have a 192.168.1.0 LAN with 192.168.1.1 as default gateway. It is a single
subnet. I added a VPN server with 2 nics. The intranet nic is 192.169.1.10
and the Internet nic is 200.200.200.200. This server is a WSUS server as
well. It needs to access to Internet to download the Windows update.

I followed the RAS wizards to setup VPN configuration. According to the MS
instruction. I ignored the default gateway setting on the intranet nic. I put
the ADSL model IP as default gateway on the Internet nic.

In this case I can logon to this VPN server from home. However I couldn't
access Internet from this server. I can't ping and browse the Internet even
if the dns names were resolved. If I add 192.168.1.1 as default gateway on
the intranet nic and remove the default gateway setting from the Internet
nic, I can browse internet from this server, but I couldn't logon this VPN
server from home.

I tried on both W2k and w2k3 server, same problem.

How can I make both access working? What did I do wrong?

Thanks for your help
