Router on a stick

I'm setting up Router on a Stick following the CBT nuggets. I'm having an issue with the two pc's being able to ping each other.

PC1 192.168.20.20 on vlan 20
sub interface 192.168.20.1

pc2 192.168.10.50 on vlan 10
sub interface 192.168.10.1

From the router I can ping both PC's. From the PC's I can ping the defauly gateway (ip sub interface for the vlan)

I can not ping the sub interface of the other's vlan. PC1 can not ping 192.168.10.1, PC2 is unable to ping 192.168.20.1

Switch trunk and access ports configured correctly?

Default gateway correct on pcs?

alan2308

Do not put an IP address on the the interface, just the two sub-interfaces.

Ah I got it. I was using my main pc which connects to the internet through wireless as well as being connected to my lab. Once I disconnected from the wireless it worked properly.

Multiple default gateways?

I guess so. On my PC's they had dhcp form the wireless. In my lab I had static IP's. Still do not understand why I could ping the sub interface of the vlan. If there was a issue with gateways the ping should have gone out the wireless.

So whats the best way in a lab for test pc's? Have them entirely by themselves?

I would like to have two nics on my main pc so I don't have to have random pcs just for test.

Is there a way to have the pc on both my home network and the lab network without issues?

You can just add a route for all the networks that you are using in your lab to point to the lab gateway. Then have your default gateway to the internet.

Your PC had a route to that lab network because it was directly attached. It did not have a route to the other lab network so it used the wireless default gateway. Even if you have two gateways on two NICs, only one will be the real default.

Do a route print at the command prompt and you'll see which one has the lower metric. By default on Windows, the first default gateway that you create gets the lower metric (I think).

Networker's comments above will take care of any issues you're having.

This issue should help give you a better understanding of routing in preparation for your ICND2 test.

This is why I like having a home lab. Any troubles I have now, I can apply that towards troubleshooting on the exam.

Well I was still having a problem with my setup. Some pings would be successful while others would not.

After reading my notes and watching the video again I found what I was missing: setting the port on the switch to trunk port.

Worked perfectly for what I needed.

Thanks!
