I am in the process of learning cisco so I really dont know much any help would be great, here my problem
I have two networks( both trusted)
I setup my cisco 2600 with ip address of

Ehernet0/0 207.207.115.48 ( trusted)

Ethernet0/1 192.167.1.1 (trusted)

I have a laptop that can see both on 0/0 and 0/1 sides
I config my laptop as 192.167.1.2 and i can ping 207.209.115.48 and 192.167.1.1

I want to create a route so that anything on the 192.167.1.0 can see anything on 207.209.115.0. The gateway for the 207.209.115.0 mask is 207.209.115.19.

I did my researh and i did from using the conf t command
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 207.209.115.19
so now when i do a sh ip route , it shows this

C 207.209.115.0/24 is directly connected, Ethernet0/0
c 192.167.1.0/24 is directly connected, Ehernet0/1
S* 0.0.0.0/0 [1/0] via 207.209.115.19


Bt i still can't see anything eles on the 207.209.115.0 mask..


Thank you all for any support you can give me
 
If the router is directly connected to the networks you shouldn't have to make a route. However, for your PC on the 192 side to be able to see to the 207 network it will need to have that router specified as it's default gateway (using the 192.167.1.1 address). Otherwise, you will have to make sure that the router that IS the default gateway for the 192 network knows that its path to the 207 network is is via 192.167.1.1.

What is at the 207.209.115.19 address? Is that an Internet gateway or something?

 
Yes the 207.209.115.19 is the trusted gateway, so all users onthe 207 network are all point to 207.209.115.19 as their defasult gateway.So from what i wrote first , what are the steps i need to take to get this to work? If i undersatand you correctly i do have the 192 network( laptop) gateway using 192.167.1.1 as its default gateway, but i still cant see the 207 network from the laptop.


Thank for your time and help
 
can any one eles help me out with this one?
 
The eo/0 address you specify at the top of your original post is 207.207.115.48 and you are pointing the gateway to 207.209.115.19. (A DIFFERENT NETWORK!)Am not sure if this is a typo in your post since the route table you have at the bottom shows e0/0 as 207.209.115.48. In short I am suggesting that you check your IP addresses carefully. Are you able to ping the gateway from the router?

The other thing to ensure is that the route table of 207.209.115.19 has a route back to your 192.167.1.0 network otherwise the gateway will not be able to return data such as your ping packets back.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for getting back to me. Yes it was a typeo. Yes i can ping the gateway ( 207.209.115.19) from the router. I can also
ping for say if i run from terminal ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.167.0.1 from the router, and i firuged that would let the traffice pass through. As for asking if the route table has a route back to 192.167.1.0. Are you asking to add a route on my 207.209.115.19( firewall) gateway??. i will check this. thank you again
 
No, your 2600 should be fine. What address are you trying to connect to on the far side? That device needs to know where to send packets destined for 192.167.0.x. This can be in the form of a default gateway, or a static route. How that's set up depends on what type of device it is, but usually a computer will have only a default route and let the routers sort out the rest.

In other words, your computer pings something on 207.209.15.x by sending the packet to 192.167.0.1. The router forwards it to the destination. How does 207.209.15.x know where 192.167.0.x is?
 
hey man thanks for your help ,you were right i needed a route\
on my 207. mask its working now, :)
