What type of PDU are you attempting to encapsulate your data in? In IOS 12.4T, physical Ethernet interfaces do not support the "encapsulation" command, but there are many ways to encapsulate user data on them. Spend a bit of time explaining your purpose.

We can check if you post "show run int <name>" for both devices.

hi

both router are 3600 Software (C3640-JK9O3S-M), Version 12.4(10a), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)

and i configure Ethernet interface like this :

router 1
interface Ethernet0/0.11
encapsulation dot1Q 11 native
ip address 10.11.11.1 255.255.255.0

router 2

interface Ethernet0/0.11
encapsulation dot1Q 11 native
ip address 10.11.11.2 255.255.255.0

and i conect them to switch and i do the trunking configuration correctly on the switch

i think the Ethernet interface not supporting encapsulation but i'm not sure

i try the same configuration on another 2 router which is have Fastethernet interface and it's working fine

please any suggestion

thank you

please any suggestion

That portion of the configuration is fine. Can you post the full interface f0/0 config for those routers? E.g., "sh run | s interface FastEthernet0/0"

Next, we should consider the switch by either--
(a) Removing the switch from the picture or
(b) Posting full configs for both switchports as well as "show int <name> switchport".

Have you configured the fa 0/0 as a trunk?

Don't forget that the dot1q "encapsulation" is at layer 2, and the native VLAN is not tagged.

Technically, it's ISL that encapsulates the frame because it adds a new header and tail to the original frame.

"Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

It's wonderfully ironic that all those encapsulation commands do not actually cause any extra encapsulation to be added when packets are sent out.

Hi ,

when i replace this routers with another routers have Fastethernet it's working fine,, but with router have ethernet interface it is not working

really i dont know what is the problem

I believe that regular Ethernet interfaces can't do router on a stick, which is what you are trying to do.
