[hfakoor222]

I want any advice to get connectivity between the two, I can't seem to make it work. I will post my setup below.

Here is my cloud

Here are conenctions defined on VMWARE

R2 cannot ping either to Loopback 2

I am asking for any advice

[Georg Pauwen]

Hello,

--> R1 cannot ping loopback FAN

Where and what is loopback FAN ? Where and what is Loopback 2 ? Post a diagram of your topology, as well as the full running configurations of all routers in that topology.

[hfakoor222]

Oh hi I just saw this

FAN was a 2nd loopback adapter to which I removed

To keep things simple I've connected to 1 Loopback and the problem persists

I can ping into GNS and perform TFT transfers but I cannot ping out of GNS

Heres my loopback

Here is the router configuration

[hfakoor222]

I can also copy the startup-config through TFTP

Here is my firewall settings, however private firewall iis turned off

Did u Try disable Firewall on Guest/Public network ?  Try it  just for test.

After taking off public firewall I am now able to ping my loopback adapter of 1.0.0.2 and now I am attempting to ping to the internet which is so far no working, I will post up soon the various methods I tried to ping to internet. As of now I can ping loopback adapter, I cannot ping my localhost of 192.168.1.151, I can ping from my localhost to inside GNS3 to my router.

I will first attemp to modify various gateways and then post up my findings.

Ping Internet from what? what is source IP when you ping Internet?  Normally you will need extra settings to ping Internet or your Internet Cable/DSL modem/router.  First of all, ISP may block your pings. your router IP is Public IP of 1.0.0.x which belongs to someone on the Internet;  2nd, Cable/DSL modem/router would need NAT set up and a route back to source of ping. Any Private range IP needs NAT set up and ISP device blocks all Private ranges of IP by default.  How do you get to Internet?  What is goal of this lab ? (as your router has basic set up without default route and NAT/DHCP setups.)

So after changing default gateway a few times of Loopback adapter I cannot ping to internet

I changed ip of loopback adapter to 172.55.5.1 for testing and it works to ping from the router in GNS to the Loopback

I can ping from localhost CLI to the router

All firewalls turned off

running through my mind I'm trying to think if a running service may be stopping my pings to internet?

I will try to restart system in a bit after this video tutorial, and see if it works.

In the meantime I am open to suggestions.
