What am I Missing?!?!

I'm finally motivated to get back into my studies for the CCNA:Security after a couple of months off due to conditions beyond my control... but I ran into a slight issue. In my lab, I'm able to ping from my client to the router and vice versa, but i cannot ping the switch from either the client or the router. My setup is as such: client -->fa0/4-- switch --> trunk port (fa0/12)-- router. I've posted the configs. I can ping from 205.50.5.150 (client) to 205.50.5.1 (router's sub-if). But I cannot ping 205.50.5.2 (switch's interface vlan) from either the router or the client. I'm obviously overlooking something... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the output of "show run" from the router:

Ok, I think I see why it won't ping the switch.

Your 205.50.5.x network is configured for vlan 5, all your access points are on vlan 5 and your router has an interface on this network for vlan 5. All ping are fine.

The switch on the other hand has an interface configured for this network BUT is on vlan 1

interface Vlan1
 ip address 205.50.5.2 255.255.255.0
 no ip route-cache

The traffic cannot pass from vlan 5 to 1 without a layer three device (router on a stick) so I guess you could add vlan 1 to your router using a 205.50.1.x range and change the vlan 1 interface on the switch to the same range. Should work then.

Alternativly it should be possible to shut down the vlan 1 interface on the switch and create a vlan 5 interface instead on the 205.50.5 range. All devices are then on ther same vlan

Mike,

I had tried that before and that didn't work. I just tried it again to be sure. I added Fa0/0.1 with an ip of 205.50.1.1/24 and changed interface vlan 1 to 205.50.1.2/24

I still had no luck. I'm thinking that it had something to do with the native vlan... I changed the native vlan from 5 (which all my ports were on) to 900 after reading about moving all clients from the native vlan of 1. That's when I think my problems began. Prior to moving the native vlans... I hadn't tried to ping the switch before, so I'm not sure if some of the security settings that I ran affected the ping to the switch in any way or what.

Correct me if I'm wrong please... The native vlan should be a vlan with no clients on it correct? I changed my native vlan on the router to vlan 900 so that any packets on the 900 vlan would be untagged. Now on my switch, I haven't set the native vlan to anything. Shouldn't I have received a native vlan mismatch?

Thanks for the assistance... any other ideas, I'm more than happy to try.

Okay... I got it worked out... just removed the native vlan 900 from interface fa0/0.900 and now all is well. So my next question is... if I wanted my native vlan to be something other than vlan 1 (which its currently set back to)... then what do I do? Thanks.
