Create Homelab separate from Main Network and give Access Point From Outside

[octavioricci]

Hello everbody. It´s my first post here . (Sorry for my english)

I have post it in another forum, without luck.

I will apreciatte any help with this thing i am trying to create.

I am trying to create a homelab .
This homelab consists in a desktop that has 2 ethernet gigabit cards, and one wifi card.
This homelab has installed windows server 2012 R2 with HyperV role.
Whithin hyperV i have installed:

DC (windows server 2012 R2 with DNS-DHCP and Domain Controller)
IPCOP (virtual router that connects with my ISP Router)
IPCOP separate the main network (192.168.0.1/24) from the laboratory network (192.168.1.1/24)
DC acts as DHCP in the laboratory network



The thing is, that i want to use the wifi card (of my homelab) as an access point to connect from an external computer (like my laptop) trough this access point (and also be routed to internet).

For now, the only "access point" i have, is the one that the ISP provides me. But this access point, gives access to the "main network", and i want to create another access point to access from outside to the "laboratory network" (192.168.1.1/24).

I tried to be as simple as i can to explain it.

I will really apreciatte any help to create an access point in laboratory network .

I'll post a graphic to be more comprehensive.

Again, thanks a lot

I understand what you want to do. What are you using to create an AP out of a Wi-Fi NIC? Can the IPCop VM router add the Wi-Fi NIC as a routable interface?

Hello Thiggins.
I´m using the ISP Wifi AP called "Octavio-Wifi". The main wifi access point.
The ipcop VMachine adds two virtual intefaces. The lan interface is "attached to the wifi nic".

Maybe i need to add another virtual wifi access point, but i dont know how.

I´ll show you the configuration to be more clear.

Thanks in advance !!!

I am not a VM or IPCOP expert, sorry. But I think IPCOP needs three network interfaces, WAN, LAN and WiFi

I see. And then route between the wifi and lan maybe...
