    Office A is the HQ office.
    Office B is a satellite office
    Office C is a satellite office

    Both offices B and C have IPSec tunnels connecting to office A.
    Files, folders, IP phones all connect ok to office A and vise versa.

    However then trying to send/recieve files/folders/IP phone from office B to office C or vise versa, this doesn't work.
    Only communications through office A work, when communicating from office B to C, they don't work.

    My question is, why is this?

    Have I input an incorrect DNS or Gateway IP?
    Is there additional settings I have to implement?

    Thanks for any info you could share, much appreciated.

      you have to "supernet" it with a bigger subnet mask in IPSec settings which contains all 3 Subnets! Routing across Tunnels ist not possible with 1.2 …

        …could I get a translation on that please...? Thanks.

        I'm guessing that means, no?

          Why not just make tunnels from B to C and C to B?

            hehe…that was my example... the reality is that it's actually one HQ office, and 4 field offices...

            ...would creating tunnels between ALL these field offices work?

            ...that would be 20 tunnels! Sheeesh LOL....

              Net A = 192.168.0.0 /24
              Net B = 192.168.1.0 /24
              Net C = 192.168.2.0 /24

              Subnet  in IPSec settings
              192.168.0.0 /22
              (= 192.168.0.0 / 255.255.252.0)
              (= 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.3.254)

                I assume this work work with the following solution to as the remote branches are all a "class c" subnet correct? and just creating a "class b" subnet on the HQ location would allow traffic to pass between the remote sites?

                A 192.168.0.0/22 HQ
                B 192.168.2.0/24 Remote
                C 192.168.3.0/24 Remote
                D 192.168.4.0/24 Remote
                E 192.168.5.0/24 Remote
                F 192.168.6.0/24 Remote
                G 192.168.7.0/24 Remote
                H 192.168.8.0/24 Remote
                J 192.168.9.0/24 Remote
