I have a Cisco 837 I use as my dsl router at home. Connected to it I have the beginnings of my lab. So it goes like this...
837-ethernet-2620-serial-2503-ethernet-2620#2
I can ping/telnet from one 2620 to the other in both directions, and from the 2503 in both directions. I am using RIP and default routes. The 837 fa ports are on the 10.0.0.0/8 network, where my pc is. One of the ports I have connected to the first 2620, and I set the ip address of the fa0/0 on this 2620 to 10.0.0.67/8. I did this connection so I can telnet into my home router from work and play around in my lab. Here's my deal...
I cannot ping the 837 from the last 2620, and vice versa, nor can I ping either from the 837 to the 2503 and vice versa. I can of course do so from the first 2620 to the 837, and vice versa, so really there is no problem. I am just curious...does it have to do with the fact that the 837 is working off a built-in switch, like layer 2? Thanks.
