One Way Ping


Routing and switching, Wireless networks, Routers, Switches

Hi All
I have a point to point wireless link configured in routing mode with Network end connected through a switch to firewall. IP's are configured as follows:
Ethernet IP: 10.1.1.99
Wireless IP: 10.0.0.10
G/W : 10.1.1.1 firewall

The subscriber (remote end)
Ethernet IP: 172.16.1.150
Wireless IP: 10.0.0.11
G/W : 10.0.0.10

From the network end from any LAN Port i can ping the remote Ethernet. From the subscriber end i can ping the network end wireless IP but not the ERthernet IP, which times out. RIP is configured at both ends and routing tables look okay.
When the link is configured in bridge mode everything okay. Any ideas?

Regards
Mark

I would expect bridging mode to work just fine since you have the same 10.0.0.0/8 subnet on both sides. On the remote side, it does not look like there is anything that has both a 10.0.0.0 and a 172.16.0.0 address to be able to route between the two subnets. The 172.16.0.0 devices need to know some way of getting back to the 10.0.0.0 subnet. You will need some type of gateway on the 172.16.0.0 subnet.
