The reason it works to one Max and not the other is probably because the
first Max has a static route to it for the Class C the .248 subnet you
assigned to client is in.

The problem is, when your guy hits the second Max, routing for his subnet
is still handled by the first Max. You need to have a way to have the Max
the client hits announce that it is currently handle that subnet. You can
do this by running OSPF between your Maxen.

You'll need to have the OSPF load of the software running in both your
Maxen. Enable OSPF on their Ethernet ports (assuming they're on the same
Ethernet, otherwise enable OSPF on their connection profiles for each other.

Make sure you have no conflicting static routes for that subnet, so that
OSPF's routes can take effect. Making OSPF routes higher priority
(preference) will do that.

We went through the same transition. It's easier than it perhaps sounds.
Keep looking at your routing tables and doing traceroutes to see what's
going where.
