Packet Tracer - cannot ping hosts through OSPF

t_ogrodowski
Level 1
Level 1

Hello everyone, I'm pretty new to this so please bear with me. I was tasked with making a simple network - three routers, all connected with eachother, with subnets derived from 79.96.21.160/28, and hosts connected to them with subnets derived from 172.19.0.0/16, with a minimum of a 1000 usable addresses. I split them as follows:

 

79.96.21.160 / 255.255.255.252

79.96.21.164 / 255.255.255.252

79.96.21.168 / 255.255.255.252

and

172.19.0.0 / 255.255.192.0

172.19.64.0 / 255.255.192.0

172.19.128.0 / 255.255.192.0

 

The addresses I gave all the devices are in the attached image.

I was then supposed to set up OSPF on the routers, which I did using the following commands:


POZNAN(config)#router ospf 1
POZNAN(config-router)#network 172.19.0.0 0.0.63.255 area 0
POZNAN(config-router)#network 79.96.21.160 0.0.0.3 area 0
POZNAN(config-router)#network 79.96.21.168 0.0.0.3 area 0
POZNAN(config-router)#exit

 

LODZ(config)#router ospf 1
LODZ(config-router)#network 172.19.64.0 0.0.63.255 area 0
LODZ(config-router)#network 79.96.21.164 0.0.0.3 area 0
LODZ(config-router)#network 79.96.21.160 0.0.0.3 area 0
LODZ(config-router)#exit

 

WAWA(config)#router ospf 1
WAWA(config-router)#network 172.19.128.0 0.0.63.255 area 0
WAWA(config-router)#network 79.96.21.168 0.0.0.3 area 0
WAWA(config-router)#network 79.96.21.164 0.0.0.3 area 0
WAWA(config-router)#exit

 

I then have to test the ping between POZ0 and WAW1, unfortunately, I get request timed out. I've tried to make this network from scratch a couple of times now, and I cannot figure out what's wrong. I'm also attaching my last attempt in Packet Tracer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1. Since PCs are supposed to ping remote PCs, they must have configured .... ? something ?

if you on the same network, you do not need that something. 

that is 1st thing i noticed....so far... but I think there are other issues. will check later

Hint: look at Poznan PC can reach Laptop no problems

2. and routers do not have routes to others, except Warszawa to Poznan.  perhaps a typo somewhere but i do not see it.... yet  :) 

you need to troubleshot routing, ospf neighboring,

The default gateway, of course! Thank you so much for your help, I don't know how long it would've taken me to find that :)
