SG210 - Best Scenario with a Hawai Router (3 Ports)

Amir Gamal

Hello All , 

I have the following components and I need to use sophos SG210 with it : 

1- Hawai Router with three ports and I configured every port with rate limit (30Mbps - 12Mbps - 8Mbps) every port is attached with ethernet port in My Sophos SG210 with a public IP from same subnet and same gateway .

2- Three VLANs attached to 3 ports in My Sophos SG210 represent internal network traffic . 

3- I  need every Vlan to access internet through a definite Public IP in SG210 port attached to the Hawai Router

    That's great, Amir!  I'm a visual-tactile learner, so I'm lost until I see a picture or a diagram.

    First, I'll answer your question, but then I'll recommend that you do things differently.

    You didn't mention the interface names in WebAdmin, so I'll just call them "Eth1", "Eth2", etc.  Route each VLAN out through the desired interface with an Interface Route like 'Eth4 (Network) -> Eth1'.  Next, add a masquerading rule for each VLAN like 'Eth4 (Network) -> Eth1'.

    If you have a VLAN switch, I would have done this another way:

    • Use a single NIC for Internal and a second for External
    • On the External interface, create Additional Addresses like 'Second = 41.33.183.115' and 'Third = 41.33.183.116'
    • On the NIC for Internal, define three VLAN Interfaces like 'VLAN 1 = 192.168.1.0/24', etc.
    • Connect the Internal NIC to your VLAN switch with a trunk
    • Make three masquerading rules like 'VLAN 1 -> External (Address), 'VLAN 2 -> External [Second] (Address)' and 'VLAN 3 -> External [Third] (Address)'

    Your first idea will work, but it will confuse Sophos Support and make it more difficult for them to help you.  If you don't have a VLAN switch, you should at least use the approach with a single External NIC and Additional Addresses.

    Cheers - Bob
