How can I troubleshoot a DIY router?
(lemmy.world)
Hi!
I'm trying to make a DIY router. I used configs from some online guides (the nftables one is from the project's website), but nothing happens when I connect a different machine. I know that description doesn't say much, so I'd like to know how can I check what's actually wrong. My system (Guix) config is below:
(use-modules (gnu))
(use-service-modules cups desktop networking ssh xorg sysctl linux dns)
(define wan "enp0s29u1u5")
(define lan "enp0s25")
(define dnsmasq-config
"# Listen on this specific port instead of the standard DNS port
# (53). Setting this to zero completely disables DNS function,
# leaving only DHCP and/or TFTP.
port=53
# Never forward plain names (without a dot or domain part)
domain-needed
# Never forward addresses in the non-routed address spaces.
bogus-priv
# By default, dnsmasq will send queries to any of the upstream
# servers it knows about and tries to favour servers to are known
# to be up. Uncommenting this forces dnsmasq to try each query
# with each server strictly in the order they appear in
# /etc/resolv.conf
strict-order
# Set this (and domain: see below) if you want to have a domain
# automatically added to simple names in a hosts-file.
expand-hosts
# Set the domain for dnsmasq. this is optional, but if it is set, it
# does the following things.
# 1) Allows DHCP hosts to have fully qualified domain names, as long
# as the domain part matches this setting.
# 2) Sets the \"domain\" DHCP option thereby potentially setting the
# domain of all systems configured by DHCP
# 3) Provides the domain part for \"expand-hosts\"
#domain=thekelleys.org.uk
domain=example.com
# Set Listen address
listen-address=127.0.0.1 # Set to Server IP for network responses
dhcp-range=192.168.3.25,192.168.3.50,24h
dhcp-option=option:router,192.168.3.1
dhcp-option=option:ntp-server,192.168.3.5
dhcp-option=option:dns-server,192.168.3.5
dhcp-option=option:netmask,255.255.255.0

«your servers “lan” interface has no IPv4 address» ok, so how can that be fixed?
«Is this another machine in your network already, or is that a typo?» Probably a typo, I just copied it mindlessly :/. Now I have this:
