Configuration Problem??

All,

I have 2 different IP networks that I am trying to connect using Routing and Remote access (Win2K

1 - network has the IP of 200.0.2.
1 - network has the IP of 200.0.3.

I have used the wizard on Routing and Remote access to enable it on a server that has connections to both network
RasServer: IP1: 200.0.2.11
IP2: 200.0.3.

From a box on the 200.0.2.X i cannot ping a box on 200.0.3.X. Using tracert the packets stop at the default gateway (200.0.2.116
I dont think that my RASS server is routing packets. Is there any additional configuration that has to be done for the RASS server to actually route packets?

I have checked the box under the rass server that says "Local Area Network Lan Routing" and enabled IP routing

I have a question about the setup of the nic's. What is the default gateway supposed to be for the RASS server? Both nics
Should i have it setup like this

200.0.2.X LA
IP: 200.0.2.11
Mask:255.255.255.
Gateway: 200.0.2.11

200.0.3.X LA
IP 200.0.3.
Mask 255.255.255.
Gateway: 200.0.3.

or should the gateways be reversed? Sorry , but i am new to RASS and not sure how to proceed with the troubleshooting. Is there a tool out there that can monitor the rass connections and tell me what data is being passed through the router?

TIA

If you are just connecting two subnets, the DG setting on the router
NICs should be blank. It is the default gateway settings of the client
machines which is important.

If this is the only router, set all clients to use the RRAS router as
their default gateway.

200.0.2.x dg 200.0.2.116
|
200.0.2.116 dg blank
RRAS
200.0.3.1 dg blank
|
200.0.3.x dg 200.0.3.1

But if the 200.0.2 subnet is using some other gateway, you will need
extra routing to get the traffic for 200.0.3 to actually reach the RRAS
router. eg

Internet
|
200.0.2.1
|
200.0.2.x dg 200.0.2.1
|
200.0.2.116 dg 200.0.2.1
RRAS
200.0.3.1
|
200.0.3.x dg 200.0..3.1

To make this work, you need to add a static route to the Internet router
to forward traffic for the 200.0.3.0 subnet to the RRAS router. Otherwise
this traffic tries to use the default gateway to the Internet and is lost.

200.0.3.0 255.255.255.0 200.0.2.116

Machines in 200.0.3.0 should then be able to ping machines in
200.0.2.0 and get to the Internet via the Internet router.
