Weird routing problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have two physical hosts (Correo and Alexander), running two XEN
instances on one of them (Ferrari and Amarillo on Correo) and one
on the other (Graham on Alexander)...

Picture at http://bayour.com/misc/VoIP.jpg.


On the firewall/gateway (192.168.1.1) I route 192.168.3.0/24 to Correo
(192.168.1.7) and 192.168.4.0/24 to Alexander (192.168.1.6). This so
that I can access the XEN hosts from the internal network. Very basic...

And all my VoIP phones is on it's (about to be on a) separate network
with the firewall/gateway as default gateway.

    Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

Correo with the XEN hosts Ferrari and Amarillo basically look identical (only different
networks).

As seen, I do NOT use NAT here. I wanted to use true routed network... And it seems to work.
My primary Asterisk server (the one that do all the routing - the one on Alexander only deals
with the PSTN trafik) runs on Graham and it can be accessed from the outside - with port
forwarding on the firewall/gateway and it can also contact external Asterisk servers (I run
one at home to deal with my private VoIP).


The DNS runs on Correo, but it can not be reached (queried) from Graham!

Also, scp or ssh FROM Graham to Correo don't work, but the other way
around works fine...


Looking at the answer that 'host' gave me, I now see that the connection
goes via the firewall/gateway which is not directly obvious - Alexander
(which is Graham's default GW) is on the same network as Correo...


PS. I solved this specific DNS problem with a caching DNS server on
    Alexander, but scp/ssh (etc) naturally still don't work because
    of this weird problem... I just can't see it! Maybe a set of
    (many :) extra eyes can... Thanx!
