Hi all,
I'm not finishing reading book yet but I have 2 routers: 1 2501 & 2514 and I want to set them up. I just don't know how to set up the back to back cable and the transceiver in order to have 2 routers run into one PC. Please help. Thank you all.

Frame Relay if you have a DCE/DTE cable and a serial port on each router.
Here is the cable I use. -
Optionsjbrad95706 Member Posts: 225If you have a transceiver on each one and a crossover cable between the two then you would do something like.... (Don't quote me...)
On router 1
en
conf t
int e0
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
no shut
press ctrl + z
write mem
on router 2
en
conf t
int e0
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0
no shut
press ctrl + z
write mem
then you can ping back and forth - from r2
ping 192.168.1.1
and it should work. -

jhnt,
You mentioned "I'm not finishing reading book yet..." Which book do you have? -

The 2500 routers dont have a ethernet port so you have to attach the transceivers to the AUI ports on the routers. -

yep. on mine it's the port on the left that says AUI. just connect the transceiver there on both of them then run a crossover ethernet cable between the transceivers. the interface will show up as ethernet 0. -

Awesome! I got it. Thanks to all for help. I just bought Todd Lammle CCNA book and just finished reading chapter 1. -

It will start to come together for you. TL has a good way of explaining everything so it starts to stick. I read 2 ch's then go back and re-read them and take more notes. It is starting to stick. I am just going to be finishing up CH 6 today.
