Access Remote Devices via Site to Site VPN

I'm unable to access remote devices after setting up site to site with 2 GX50's.  Status shows the VPN active on both GX50's, but IP/UNC paths not working.  What am I missing?

Hi @GBITech 

 

Do you use different ip-address-ranges on both sites?

Yes.  LAN ranges on device 1 is 192.168.254.0/24 and device 2 is 192.168.1.0/24

I'm concerned that DNS is an issue, even with directly trying to use the remote subnet IP isn't working also.  Should the default VLAN 1 use custom DNS instead of Upstream DNS?

Are you able to ping each GX50 from the other site?

 

If not, did you reboot both GX50 and renew the VPN connection?

I'm able to ping each WAN remote IP across sites

WAN address or local IP(192.168.254.1 or 192.168.1.1)?

I can ping the 192.168.1.1 from the 192.168.254.0/24 network, but not vice versa.  Both WAN addresses are pingable from each network.  I'm also able to bring up the Meraki Go page of 192.168.1.1 on the remote network.

Looks like there's something wrong with the VPN-tunnel, you should be able to ping 192.168.1.1 from 192.168.254.0/24 network and the other way around.

 

Did you follow this guide Site to Site VPN with Meraki Go Router Firewalls - Cisco Meraki to setup the VPN?

 

Did you open a support-ticket?

I did, but was hoping for a quicker option.

not the type of info I like to read on a documentation. 😕

Well, that’s not good. 😕

Guess I’ll see what support has to say.
