H i guys

Thanks very much for you support, I am trying to connect CISCO ROUTER 2516 with CISCO SWITICH 2950-24 throug ethernet cable. Unfortunately when I use show cdp neighbor command on Router nothing is shown about switch which is directly connected ? Your help is appreciated ......

Did you no shut the interface on the router?

Manglian

Thanks for reply, yeah I did no shut . since It has only one ethernet e 0 which i could configure on 2516 so i do not know whats going wrong ?

scheistermeister

Is CDP enabled on the switch?

remyforbes777

Also is it enabled on the interface?

Isn't the 2516 one of those built in hub models?

If you're linking from a hub to switch you'd probably want a cross-over cable.

Ethernet 0 is the router's internal Ethernet connection to the built in hub.
