Routing – Same Network to Different Interface

routing

Our network consists of a fixed assigned IP address per machine that connects to the domain. One machine (Windows 2003) has a wireless router connected to it (still on domain) with internet traffic routed through the wireless router, and network domain routed through domain.

I need to route my machine's internet traffic through this Windows 2003 machine so I can jump through the wireless connection.

Is this possible?

I've tried adding a route on my machine to the IP address of the Windows 2003 server, for internet traffic, but this assumes I'm still on the domain?

[Update]

More information might be required

My IP is 11.1.89.120

The Windows 2003 server IP is 11.1.89.34

Wireless Router IP is 47.123.34.34

I need to route all traffic from my IP address, for 152.1.1.34 through 11.1.89.34 which routes all traffic out to 47.123.34.34.

I don't need to worry about 47.123.x.x traffic as this is already set up. I've tried setting a route (route add 152.1.1.34 mask 255.255.255.255 11.1.84.34) but this does not work :(.

[Update 2]

I successfully traced my route to the Windows 2003 server using a tool to monitor traffic from a given source (11.1.89.120). But I still get a DNS lookup, if I try and browse to Google.com or Microsoft.com (testing) from my machine. First I thought it's a Firewall issue, but firewall has been disabled on our network for testing? I cannot use Routing and Remote Access (application in Win2003) as the machine is used for other routing as well.

Best Answer

you want a default route (0.0.0.0) i suspect

route add 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 11.1.84.34

by default the default route already has a metric of 25, if you add a route with anything 'lower' than this, then it will have a higher priority
