Networks not communicating with each other

DMARCGRAY
Level 1
Level 1

Hi everyone!!

 

I’m working on a class project that needs a dedicated fiber line between DC and ATL. The routing protocol is RIP v2. It needs to have banner motd on all switches and routers, interface description on all interfaces, all passwords are supposed to be encrypted, with up to 8 telnet sessions and management interface needs to be configured on each switch. In addition to this all hosts must communicate with each other. Eventually an ACL will prevent users from VLAN 31 and VLAN 33 from accessing the White House Liaison.

My issue is that currently none of my switches can communicate with the routers. Although, my PCs can communicate with each other on the VLAN, they cannot communicate with the switch. Also, the two routers can communicate. I don’t need help with the ACL, I just need to figure out why my network is not communicating. I listed screenshots of my setup.

 

Thanks in advance for any help or tips!!!

Hi,

 

My issue is that currently none of my switches can communicate with the routers.

 

Do you mean that you cannot ping from switches to routers and vice versa?

 

Do you have an ip address and default gateway configured in each switch?

You have a very good start. As Harold mentioned, You have missed the Management IP addresses and gateway information for the switches. After you add the switch info, you should be able to access the switches from the router and vice versa.

 

For example, if your management VLAN is VLAN 10,

!! On the Switch:

int vlan 10

 ip address 192.168.19.2 255.255.255.224

 exit

!

ip default-gateway 192.168.19.1
