Connection between two different subnets

Hi community,

I'm trying to connect two different Subnets. This is the environment:

Subnet A
192.168.1.0 /24
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Port 4: Company with DHCP address 192.168.1.55
Device: FritzBox

Subnet B
10.0.100.0 /24
Gateway 10.0.100.1
Port 1: LAN
Device Sophos XGS87

I would like to use a printer (192.168.1.100) from the LAN of the Sophos XGS, but there is not connection possible and I don't know why. I configured a firewall rule:

DEST: LAN & Company
SRC: LAN & Company
ANY ANY

What is my fault? Do I have to configure a static routing or anything else?

I would be very thankful for your help.

  • Are both network at the same location?

    You might remove FritzBox as gateway and create another interface on Sophos. But… your Setup is unclear.

    Can you draw a network diagram explaining your setup?

    Is it WAN->FritzBox->Sophos? Or WAN1->Sophos and WAN2->Fritzbox? How are they related to each other?

  • Yes both networks are at the same location. This is the setup, I hope this is helpful.

  • Okay, two options:

    1. Add route on FritzBox: 10.0.100.0/24 at 192.168.1.55 but might still be a problem because packet takes not same way to and from target.

    2. i‘d suggest adding fritzbox as second wan, so you will have high-availability wan using sd-wan as well. Sophos will be gateway for both networks:

  • The second network (fritzbox) belongs to another company, we could not use this connection for ha wan. I only want to use the printer because the printer is the only ressource that should be shared for both networks. 

  • you might create s-nat rule, to masq traffic. That would skip fritzbox as gateway for 192.168.1.0/24 Clients.

    from 10.0.100.0/24 to 192.168.1.0/24 change source to Port 4 Address 192.168.1.55/32.
    Due to this printer will not see 10.0.100.0/24 network. Source will be 192.168.1.55 and send packets back to 192.168.1.55.

  • Are these the settings you recommend?
