Hi all,
I have a problem in connecting the network devices at my work. Here is the old setup which worked,
DSL Modem -> Wifi Router (Dlink - DIR-615) -> Switch/Laptops(Wireless) -> Desktops
So, from the switch, desktop users can go online and from wifi, laptops users can go online wireless.
Now, we have a hardware firewall box(UTM) which needs to be connected.
I have set it up like this now,
DSL Modem -> UTM box -> Dlink -> Switch/Laptops(Wireless) -> Desktops.
So, desktop and laptop users both can go online filtered from firewall.
Now the issue.
We have a public IP. So, the dsl modem as been given a IP 0.1
The public IP is configured in the firewall box and it as a IP 0.250
The wifi router is having a IP 0.251
But what is the source or WAN IP for the wifi router?
If I have to give the IP of the firewall, then what will be the gateway IP? because, both IP will be 0.250
I tried enabling DHCP in the firewall box, but the wifi router doesnt get any IP.
Please help.
