OK, so I'm sure it's been covered here or on KH somewhere before but I want to create a split network. A LAN and Wifi for my main devices and a LAN and Wifi for my IOT devices.

 

Internet to Cable Modem to Ubiquiti Edge Router thru it's WAN (running OpenWRT) to two different AP's - 1 Synology RT 1900AC for LAN and a Cisco Valet Plus I am going to use for IOT devices. I am still waiting for the Synology RT to come in but am trying to get the Edge setup but I've got something wrong. The Cisco is behind it but for some reason (possibly double NAT). I just need to know what is the best way to do it. I was thinking maybe VLAN's but I need to know what to do with the NAT'ing and DHCP, and IP schemes on all 3 devices. Anyone know a good resource to get the details I need?

I'm assuming that the valet is directly connected to a port in the UER, and that the Syn will be on another.

 

Each of those ports will be assigned to the specific network. I looked at the documentation examples for swconfig and interfaces. (wiki.openwrt.org - Network configuration [OpenWrt Wiki])

 

Declare the various network identities and associate with individual VLANs. Then a given interface will be assigned to a vlan.

 

Something that may hitch things up is it may not automatically define things like gateways or default routes.

 

Another thing may be traffic on additional subnets may have traffic blocked by default.

 

In sorry I can't be more help. I have more experience Cisco ios and pfSense type things than OpenWRT. I couldn't find anything more in setting up subnets in openwrt.

 

A few screenshots or config file snippets may help.

 

Traceroute or ping results may help (ie, no route to host is a significant hint)

 

After looking at ddwrt's web config (maybe it's similar?) , The vlans may need to be assigned to the default bridge. As long as each net can and knows to pass traffic to the wan ip, it should be golden.

 

I hope this helps.
