BCMSN Cisco Press Lab Guide - Help -

amb1s1 · January 2009

I started to do the BCMSN Lab from the Cisco Press Lab Guide.I'm stock on Page 31 where I have to verify that the PC router has connectivity with devices in VLAN1 by using ping
commands. I'm going to copy the config from my PC router and the Access switch that is directly connected to the PC Router.

I'm using GNS3 Emulator with 3640 IOS Image. Thanks for your time

I'm not sure what your question is here....

Is this a bridging lab?

If you're configuring a router to act like a PC, then you'd disable IP Routing and configure a default gateway.

You've got your "pc" in the same subnet as the VLAN1 interface on the switch

but you have the "PC Port" on the switch configured for VLAN 11.

I'm going to read the lab again because that what I was thinking. If port FA0/3 has allow command for VLAN 11, is not going to allow PC1 to pass because PC is in VLAN 1 subnet. Right ....

amb1s1 · January 2009

I know how to get the pc to communicate by adding VLAN 11 Ip address on the switch and then changing the ip address on the PC to the correct Subnet, but I want to follow the Cisco Lab. I'm having a headache because I can't figured out what the book steps. If anybody wants to help me, I will send you the Lab, so you can take a look at it. Please I need help. Thanks

Exactly which Cisco Press Lab Guide is this? The CCNP Building Multilayer Switched Networks (BCMSN 642-812) Lab Portfolio (Cisco Networking Academy) or the Official Class Courseware Lab Guide?

Are you supposed to ping something in VLAN1 while the "PC" is attached to the switch port while it's in it's default configuration (and it's default VLAN is VLAN 1)? Or after you put the PC's switch port into the default VLAN for your building/pod -- which is 11? Or both?

amb1s1 · January 2009

Sorry Mike, PC router is not suppose to communicate with the access switch. I was reading thru the lab and I found out. I have to get used to Lab steps.

It is the Lab Portfolio.

It seems weird they'd leave you hanging with devices in the same subnet but different VLANs -- unless the purpose was to make you remember that they couldn't communicate.

You might still be in some of the CCNA "refresher" material before they hit you up with the fun/new/hard stuff.

They got me confused because I knew that no possible way they could it communicate having the same subnet with a different VLAN. I figured out because I went the Answer and Question Page at the end of the lab.

Here's the "lab" I'm working on and how to get access to it for under $20

Go to informit.com (the old site, not the safari thing)

Sign up, it's free

Wait for a day they will send you a coupon

Buy the BCMSN Video Mentor online video for $17 with the coupon

Pause the video often as the configs fly by

Not a bad deal kids

Just make sure that you can run the quicktime plug-in if you buy. That can be a deal-breaker as not all browsers play nice with it
