Ping1

[Jeromy Polachak]

Why can my computer ping my router, but my router can not ping my computer?

Hi,

May be the router using different interface IP as source when initiating the ping. Try to ping using extended ping option.

R1#ping

Protocol [ip]:

Target IP address: Your PC IP

Datagram size [100]:

Timeout in seconds [2]:

Extended commands [n]: y

Source address or interface: Interface IP (behind which PC connected)

Also make sure no access lists (on router) blocking the ICMP messages.

Thx

Hi,

and maybe your PC has firewall turned on.
