Following on from my earlier thread, I've now got my USG and its working fine with the DV130 in bridge mode. I now want to configure the DV130<>USG connection to allow me to see the GUI of the DV130, I am currently unable to do that as it is bridged.

I know it involves static routes I believe on both units but does someone have a good method of doing this? I'm presuming if I need to set the DV130 on a static LAN of 192.168.0.1 for example and then route to the USG IP of 192.168.1.1; and do the same on the USG but in reverse?

Thanks,

Chris

You'll need to assign a second WAN interface on the USG with IP of 192.168.0.x (on the DV130's range), this will allow communication between the DV130 and the USG. In order to access from a host on the USG LAN (192.168.1.x) you will need to create a NAT rule so that traffic destined to the DV130 (say 192.168.0.1) appears to originate from the USG (e.g. 192.168.0.2).

Sorry I don't have a USG so can't give you definitive instructions on how to add that to its config.

No idea if USG uses same language as ERL3 but here is what I do to see devices on the WAN side of router
My DV130 is 400m away at road and gets PtP from home to road, with 2x Radios
I like you needed to see these devices from network.

ETH0 = WAN is 192.168.1.xxx
ETH1 = LAN is 192.168.0.xxx

Commands to run to enable viewing of WAN interface:

configure
set service nat rule 5000 description 'Clients on WAN side'
set service nat rule 5000 destination address 192.168.1.0/24
set service nat rule 5000 outbound-interface eth0
set service nat rule 5000 source address 192.168.0.1/24
set service nat rule 5000 type masquerade
commit
save

Do NOT make the DV130 ip 192.168.x.1 as the USG will use that

Hope this helps.

The USG uses EdgeOS except that you have to do some stuff with json to get it to save permanently.

What's your configuration for the Draytek? Would you mind getting a screen shot, sans any password or sensitive stuff so I can make sure the settings are correct?

Its absurd that they cant do this by default on the USG - If I put a netgear (or may have been linksys - whatever a cheapie consumer one) router upstream of my draytek then I can see its UI, Otherwise I cant.

I chucked a dumb switch between them and just plug a pc in when I want to see what the terrible sync speeds are at any time.

Not sure what a USG is, but in general with a vigor, i plug the vigor into a LAN port on the router, so i can access it from the internal network. Then i plug the WAN port on the router into a LAN port on the router, so that the router can find the vigor also.

I have this setup at home and from memory, I needed to configure a static route on the DV130. Also the DV130 had to be configured for PPPoE pass-through and not specifically in bridge mode.
