Good Day,
I have a problem getting a Catalyst 3560-CG POE to route the traffic between the local network and the Internet. VLAN 192 is the local network. Interface G 0/10 is connected to the ISP. When I ping the Internet from the the switch, it works. When I ping from a desktop on VLAN 192, it doesn't. I can ping only to the IP address that I get from the ISP DHCP server for my switch but it doesn't go farther. I have looked on the web and in this forum, but no luck. Can you help me? I think it has something to do with the routing between local VLAN 192 and the ISP network.
Thank you in advance for your time and help.
on the switch:
ping 8.8.8.8
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 8.8.8.8, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 21/24/27 ms
on the desktop:
ping 8.8.8.8
Pinging 8.8.8.8 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Ping statistics for 8.8.8.8:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
Here is my configuration and other info. Not of great importance, I have a Cisco 2504 Wireless controller connected in G0/9 and two access points on G0/7 and G0/8 Vlan 5.

Hi,
Since you are using private IP address on your LAN then you need to NAT, but the 3560 series switches do not support NAT.
Or is the ISP doing the NAT for you?
If you need to NAT, you need a router.

Hello,
I agree with Reza, one would assume you need NAT (PAT - or aka overload) here. Because you have an internet facing address on your Gi0/10, everyone out there in the WWW knows how to get to your external address (its advertised out to the internet via your ISP). This is why the ping works on your switch.
What about your internal hosts.... You have a 192.168.1.X address inside, this is an RFC1918 address range and therefore no one would be allowed to route directly to your internal hosts, nor is it feasible. All outbound traffic needs to be translated to your external address of the Gi0/10 interface, so the WWW + your Router knows where to send back the traffic to.
Unfortunately, the 3560 does not support NAT as mentioned previously, hence you need a router to carry out this function.
Hope this helps,

Thank you very much for your help.
Here is another question, what switch would be able to NAT, routing of course, and have 24 ports? I would like to have one piece of equipment.
Do you have other recommendations?
Would a ASA5505 do the job (without the numbers of port I need)?
Thank you again.

Hi,
There is no small Cisco switch (that I know) that can have 24 ports and do NAT. So, you have a couple of choices:
1-In addition to your switch buy a small router and connect the switch to the router and have the router do the NATing for you. This solution is very common.
2-Buy a router with a 24 port switch module, use the switch part to connect your end devices and use the router to the NATing for you. This is all in one device. This solution is not as common but possible.
For the first solution buy a 2901, 2911 or 2921 router.
Here is the data sheet for the 2900 series.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/routers/ps10537/data_sheet_c78_553896.html
For the second solution buy a 2921 router and add the 24 port switch module to it.
here is the data sheet for the 2900 series
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/routers/ps10537/data_sheet_c78_553896.html
And here is the data sheet for the switch module:
see table-10 for different modules;

Glad to help and thanks for the rating.
BTW, if it is me, I prefer option-1.
