I have two subnets, two seperate domains/dns schemes.. I can ping each of the subnets either via FQDN or by IP address... but I cant ping internet addresses, even via IP (which i'm puzzled by).

Call subnet 1 : Production
192.168.100.0 subnet, gateway is 192.168.100.1

Call subnet2: Development
192.168.227.0 subnet, gateway is 192.168.227.6 (.6 is the RRAS gateway/server).

For the production gateway, this is a symantec gateway router device.. on this device, the only way i could get both subnets to ping was to add a static route with these settings:

Destination IP: 192.168.227.0
Netmask: the usual
Gateway: 192.168.227.6


For the RRAS gateway on development, i just set it up to allow basic routing and that was it, although i had to have a secondary NIC on that RRAS server which had an ip in the .100.x subnet.

Again, pings via ip or fqdn work fine.. but there is no internet pings that work via ip address even, on the development LAN..

Any help would be great.

Thanks
 
update with some success...

Leaving everything the way i had it.. i am not able to ping the
internet via ip address..


I think the only thing i changed was that under the gateways tab or
the 192.168.227.x lan controller on the RAS server, there was a box to
have "automatic metric" checked. It wasnt checked, but once i checked
it, things flowed internet wise. Pinging by DNS name works too.
