I have two routers on VMWare workstation, Router01 and Router02, both are set up as Host Only Networks.

I need to route between the two networks, so that from Router01 I can ping the public endpoint of Router02 and vice versa ?

Private Endpoint ~~~~~~~~~~ Public Endpoint

192.168.10.5 ---- Router01 ---- 192.168.81.129 ---- ? ---- 192.168.159.128 ---- Router02 ---- 192.168.11.5

Router01 and Router02 are Ubuntu Virtual Machines set up using IPTables to simulate different NAT environments. My end game is to send messages from 192.168.10.x network and have it reach 192.168.159.128, to test hole punching techniques.

    And what is your question? – peterh Apr 20 '15 at 15:07
  • How do I route between 192.168.81.129 and 192.168.159.128 so that 192.168.81.129 can ping 192.168.159.128 and vice versa ? – Oliver Ciappara Apr 20 '15 at 15:36

  • The obvious answer would be 'set up routing' but you've not mentioned what type of router you have now do you give the impression of knowing what you're doing - and that's kind of one of our requirements on this site, it's not for learners as we make very clear when you sign up. – Chopper3 Apr 20 '15 at 15:42
  • I am a software student, and need to set up this environment for testing, no I am not an expert so can you please redirect me to somewhere I can post this question ? The routers are setup already they are done using Ubuntu IPTables to simulate different Cone NATs. What I am trying to do is from the host machine make the two endpoints know of each other as if they where on the internet – Oliver Ciappara Apr 20 '15 at 15:43
  • @Chopper3 He wants to use probably the linux command line route commands. – peterh Apr 20 '15 at 15:43
  • On unix.stackexchange.com you will get what you want. – peterh Apr 20 '15 at 15:45
  • The Host machine is Windows not Linux – Oliver Ciappara Apr 20 '15 at 15:46
  • Windows has also a `route` command. I suggest to try http://superuser.com . – peterh Apr 20 '15 at 15:47

The Windows host with vmware workstation, you will need to create a network and add both routers 1 & 2 to the same network or same switch so that one can reach other. In this way, routers would be able to broadcast their routing table and be able to forward packets to destination.
