Hi. We installed an MPLS network this week an while there is connectivity and propagation of routers between all nodes
we have the ISP router (172.18.1.17) plugged into a catalyst 3750X (vlan 102 ip address 172.18.1.18)
Also plugged into the catalyst is another catalyst via trunk. 172.18.1.19
The user vlan that we have published via ospf is 192.168.0.0/24.
If I do a traceroute to a workstation on the first switch it shows mpls router -->second switch --> workstation on the first switch.
If I do a traceroute to a worksation on the second switch it shows mpls router --> second switch --> timeout...
Can someone tell me why:
A) the second last hop is the ip of the switch that ISNT plugged direclty into the MPLS router
B)if A is normal why I cannot reach workstations on the second switch.
Here are the (abbreviated traces) .51 is a WS on the second switch. .18 is a WS on the first switch. Within the vlan there is full connectivity.
