Im Stuck..Help. 2 routers and cant get outside to internet.

Hi, having problems setting up my CCNA lab. I have 2 2950 switches and 3 2610xm routers. I also have my ISP router, which will be connected to one of the 2610xm routers which will connect me to the internet. So far i have set up 2 routers and one switch, and can ping every device on the network. The 2610 router that is connected to the ISP router, can ping outside on to the internet no problem. The Other router which is connected to my switch, can ping anywhere on the network but not outside on to the internet.

I have set up RIP and NAT, here is a copy of my 2 running configs if anyone can help??

Router 1, which is connected to switch

step 1: remove the passwords from the pasted configs.
step 2: I didn't see any sort of access-class on the vty lines.
step 3: I think your problem might be between your routers, give me a moment to look this over right quick.

I'm trying to picture it.

router 2 connects via ethernet to ISP
router 1 connects via serial to router 2

my first thought is to get rid of the default-gateway on router 1, and make sure that ip routing is turned on

can you do a "sh ip route" on router 2 and router 1?

thanks.

(please don't show your ISP-provided IP in the output).

Router 2 is connected to isp via ethernet to isp
Router 1 is connected to router 2 via serial.

Many Thanks for the reply

Diggs

Default information originate on Router 1?

instant000

router 1 needs a quad 0 route to point to router 2

instant000

Another issue I see: router 1 has stuff in there like 192.168.0.x/24, which conflicts with the IPs between router 2 and the ISP router.

Thats it now working. Would that be one of the reasons why my connection from my pc through my switch and routers would be very slow (Painfully slow)??

Again Many thanks instant000. Just to see it working, although not very well, it gives me a little boost.

Studying In my own time while working 6 days is tough, and this is what i want to do. when i have a couple of days off together will erase the boxes and start from scratch.

atorven

@Diggs-That would be the other way around, on R2 which has the default route.
@Donnelly82-Good luck with your studies.

I'm not sure if the routers are overloaded, or if there are slow interfaces involved, or ... if it's your PC infected. You don't work for the New York Times, do you? (It's a crude joke. If you do work for them, I apologize. -- they recently found out they had been hacked for months, and their A/V (Symantec) didn't detect it.)

1. You don't want an IP address conflict. Also, if you have 192.168.0.x/24 addresses inside your network, then you will have routing issues, as some of those addresses may think that the internet gateway is on their own subnet, and not be able to reach it. It just looks like issues waiting to happen. You don't want to clash with your ISP-provided private IPs. If you can't change the ISP-provided privates, then you need to change your 192.168.0.x/24 to something different.

2. What is the bandwidth of those serial interfaces? (do a sh int) They could be slowing you down. [In fact, do a sh int for all your interfaces, and make sure there aren't any types of errors accumulating.] Also, I now start thinking of duplex and bandwidth mismatches, which could cause issues. Check out all of your interfaces, and make sure they match on both ends of either connection. If your serial interfaces are slow enough, they'd be slower than your ISP connection, which could slow you down a little.

3. I see that you're really natting yourself all over the place, which from my perspective is a bit excessive, as you go from one overload, into another one.

I think you could just set up your NAT pool on your router 2, and for the source list, just include all your internal subnets:

Do this on Router 1:
a. remove all of the NAT stuff. There is no need to do it here, at all. I would say the router's redundant, but I'm guessing you want to test this out. At least for the NAT, leave that for the router at the edge of your network.
b. Give out DHCP, if you must, just make sure any pools don't conflict with 192.168.0.x/24 or anything else you need.

Do this on Router 2:

no ip nat inside source list 1 interface FastEthernet0/0 overload
no access-list 1 permit 192.168.11.0 0.0.0.255
no access-list 1 remark SDM_ACL Category=2

ip nat pool Outside_LAN 192.168.0.128 192.168.0.254 netmask 255.255.255.0

access-list 1 remark SDM_ACL Category=2
access-list 1 permit 192.168.10.0 0.0.1.255

ip nat inside source list 1 pool Outside_LAN

4. I don't see any reason to advertise 192.168.0.0/24 into RIP. Which also means you're barking RIP towards your ISP router (which probably doesn't like that). What that network statement (network 192.168.0.0) is doing is enabling RIP on the interface that matches that IP string ... not sure you want to be doing that. If you must do that, at least go passive-interface on your FE so it doesn't waste its time talking to the ISP router.

5. You're using Cisco routers, run EIGRP. It's less chatty

6. Your networks small, and simple. You could use static routes and not worry about any routing protocol traffic.

7. I'd probably statically assign the IP on the ISP-router-facing interface of Router 2, as I don't think the ISP router is ever going to change from 192.168.0.1, is it? and then just set a default to 192.168.0.1. Now, if there's any chance this changes, then you could potentially have future conflicts, between this IP space, and yours, so I hope it doesn't change too often.

Hope this helps!

Yeah, got the two mixed up when reading the configs

Donnelly82

Thanks guys, really appreciate the help. awesome info and help, wont be able to get on it again until 2moro after work. will let you guys know the results.

appreciate it
james

Donnelly82

woohoo, running much better now. Took Nat of of one router, and played about with the clock speed on the serial interface, got rid of the 192.168.0.0 route and much faster.

Still a long way to go, but getting connected at a decent speed is awesome, feels like things are starting to click.

Also, starting to fly round the cisco ios.

cheers guys for the help.
