Connecting two 1751 w/ WIC-1T - Bridging

dal
Level 1
Level 1

I am attempting to connect to 1751 routers w/serial interfaces via t1 line. Router "A" (host side) is identical to router "B" remote side. I want to keep them on the same subnet for simplicity purposes. I have performed this feat with csu/dsu modules in the past, but never with serial interfaces. Host side has an internet gateway seperate from the router itself - which the remote side will need access to also. For the life of me I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. This is the configuration from router "A", router "B's" configuration is identical except for the BVI 1 IP address is x.x.x.22 instead of x.x.x.21. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You are not actually routing over any interfaces in this router so the BVI isn't really being used. You could just have used 'no ip routing'.

If I understand correctly however, your internet gateway is accessable from an interface in this router therefore this interface should be configured to route IP, ie given an IP address.

Depending what RIP updates thegateway is sending, you may need a default route pointing to it eg

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0

Unless your B router also has an external interface requiring routing, you might as well just use 'no ip routing' and set the default gateway to the IP address of the BVI in the A router eg

ip default-gateway 192.168.0.21
