Vlan overlaps with static route

[MariamT]

Hello everyone,

I have a client using an internet box with a dedicated public IP address , and in order to connect to his remote sites, he uses a VPN solution on another router on his LAN .

I will be replacing the first BOX with a new ISP BOX  and a meraki MX85 .

in the current situation, my client LAN  subnet is 192.168.1.0/24 so to connect to the remote sites he directs all traffic to the router on the LAN , via next hop 192.168.1.250/24.

the issue is that   have to put the same old config as it is on the MX .

LAN Subnet 192.168.1.0/24 and  static routes with the 192.168.1.250/24 as next hop .

but this is not possible since the Meraki sees the Next hop in the LAN and doesn't allow the creation of the routes.

Is there any way I can overcome this without changing the next hop on that router on the LAN and without changing the LAN subnet on the MX ?

Thank you in advance .

Your static route does not make sense. What is the destination subnet or IP?

[MariamT]

he has many routes to remote sites  /24  using this nexthop.

the 192.168.1.250 is used by another router on the LAN that has the vpn solution on it .

and the LAN  of this site is also 192.168.1.0/24 , so When Meraki wants to create the route sees that the next hop belong to the LAN and then can't validate it .

I've performed a test here and worked as expected.

ooh ok thank you , I'll try that again .

I'v been getting this message saying that the route overlaps with a vlan on the MX .

Thank you for your time and support 🙂 !!
