2811 simple script not working Advice please

[1885]

We just started working with Cisco routers and switches in our learning lab. (school)

We want to get a 2811 Router to do something simple.  Just route two private networks 192.168.1.1/24 and 192.168.2.1/24

Our script runs in Packettracer 7.1 but not on the actual router.

Here is the script we are using with level 1 switches connected and static ip addresses.

Router#erase startup-config 
Router#enable 
Router#configure terminal 
Router(config)#interface FastEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)#no shutdown 

Router(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
Router(config-if)#ip address 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0
Router(config-if)#no shutdown 

Router#show ip interface brief
Interface              IP-Address      OK? Method Status                Protocol 
FastEthernet0/0        192.168.1.1     YES manual up                    down 
FastEthernet0/1        192.186.2.1     YES manual up                    down 
Vlan1                  unassigned      YES unset  administratively down down

This should work but it doesn't .  Any ideas?  We also installed new firmware.

Hi @1885

 What exactly is not working? 

As per your config, you assigned IP address to two interface on the router, right. Two different network. This is correct for a router. Now, you router is able to pass traffic from network 192.168.1.0/25 to 192.168.2.0/24 and vice-versa.

 What are you trying to accomplish from here?

This script did not work.  I need to assume there is something wrong with the router.

Thanks for the lines.

Alright. Try to explain what is not work. I mean, are you trying to ping the router and it is not responding? What are you trying to do and is not working? Maybe I can help you if you explain the problem.

Hi

What is the purpose of your script? I see the changes have been applied, now the interfaces are up down it looks like a layer 2 problem, it could be cable or interface. 

Could you please provide details about the objective of this configuration?

Thank you in advance. 

[1885]

Thank you for the post.

All we are trying to do is ping across router.

Right now we have the 2811 with level 1 switches on each side.

From node 192.168.1.2/24 to  ndoe 192.168.2.2/24 

We will not be able to work on this until Wdnesday 12/6/17 

Thank You

I am the student in question, and there has been a (not so) slight change.

We (I) hooked up the router to the "real world" (the room), and i was able to ping everything on our network from the router's CLI interface. I also swapped routers and the router is definitely not the issue, somehow the data needs to go "through"the router.

The original (and current) set up is a few computers hooked up to a Cisco 24-port switch (we'll have to check the model tomorrow).  Only one of the said computers is actually powered on, which is also the computer which i have hooked up via serial to the router's console port.  The switch is not programmed but indeed works.

The switch is set up with a crossover cable going from GigabitEthernet 0/1 on the switch to FastEthernet 0/1, while the real world connection is on FastEthernet 0/0 on the 2811.

Hope this helps.

This solved the simple problem. 

ip route 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.0 
ip route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.0 

Thank You!
