Solved EdgeRouter routing

The tracert is interesting. The server that I thought was across a site to site VPN is more likely in the building due to the ping times:
Tracing route to 10.66.1.100 over a maximum of 30 hops 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 10.1.62.1 2 1 ms 2 ms 1 ms 192.168.62.1 3 2 ms 2 ms 1 ms 192.168.180.2 4 2 ms 2 ms 1 ms 10.66.1.100 Trace complete. -

Since 10.1.62.x is NATed behind the ER how would the other networks know about it?
Wouldn't they only need to get back to 192.168.62.20 ?I think that partially answers my question. I'm not NATing eth3 yet....
LOL that was going to be my next question - are you actually NATing?

I once found a 48 port switch bolted to the top of a partition wall up above a ceiling. If I can find a picture, I'll start a new thread.
As a consultant, it's getting harder and harder to surprise me and I don't really trust what users say about how they think things work anymore.

I don't believe it. There had to be a leaky water pipe involved somewhere as well!

Was there a patch panel there too? I ran into that issue at one of the places are worked at. 24 port switch above a utility closet in a warehouse because home running all the cables would have cost too much.

This is something you would have much more control over with a Mikrotik with one of their cloud router switch hybrids. You can literally create 10 different WAN and LAN ports on a 24 port router for 10 private networks, then link local networks together as needed.
Unfortunately PoE is still on the Horizon and they lack the Unifi software panel. You do get a desktop app called Winbox for configs. They also have similarly priced options to edgerouter with similar specs. Sounds like you got this working though with each LAN routing to their own internet connection as well as linked to each other?

@bigbear The corp LAN knows nothing of the private network. The private network uses its own internet and just goes to the corp LAN for access to the one server.

Gotcha, still something more easily done with a Microtik than Ubiquiti. Would be great Ubiquiti would start making their switches this way. Basically a switch can be a router, multiple routers, etc.

That's an L3 switch.

While you are correct, RouterOS and RouterBoard do some things that are unique and will work with there $150 24 port switches. Back when we were bigger uses of them the only alternative was a Cisco Metro Ethernet switch that started at $2500.
Still currently a bigger fan of UBNT though.
