Enable connections from WAN to LAN interface
Enable connections from WAN to LAN interface
Hi, Network Setup: | Local Area Network | Wide Area Network | PC1 ---------- Switch ---------- Router ---------- PC2
Can't reach PC2 from PC1. Looks like data can't move between WAN and LAN sides. Need assistance. Thanks.
What IP address are you trying to reach on PC2? It seems PC2 isn't getting any IP because it's linked to the WAN port. You'll need to assign PC2 a fixed IP and set the router's WAN IP to the same subnet.
IPs: PC1: DHCP Router: Local Network 192.168.0.1, WAN 10.0.0.1; PC2: Local Network 10.0.0.2, WAN 10.0.0.2
To allow pc2 to reach something on pc1, you need to forward the port from pc1 and use the router's IP address for access.
You have this terrible configuration? Stick with the same machines on the local network.
You're verifying the specific functionality of the test setup. The focus is on confirming the data behavior within the intended environment, even if the details are intentionally kept general to maintain flexibility. The PAT layer affecting inbound connections needs attention, and adjusting the DMI settings for PC1 could resolve the issue.
