Router 1841 will not do interVlan routing

wenqiz1989
Level 1
Level 1

I have a router 1841 and a swith Catalyst 3560, to set a router on a stick

I set up the vlans, 3 loopback interface with 3 networks, and truck ports in the swith, set up subinterface with fa 0/0 port in the router.  It seems the router will not route between vlans.  I can not ping the loopback addresss in the switch from the router, and I can not ping from the swith to the default gateway in the router.

PDid anybody encounter this kind of problems with router 1841

Thanks!

Hello Grace,

Remove the Loopback1, Loopback2 and Loopback3 from your 3560. You have configured them with IP addresses that overlap the addressing on your router's subinterfaces. Because of this, you have tricked your 3560 into believing that the entire networks 172.16.10.0/24, 172.16.20.0/24, 172.16.30.0/24 are connected to the Loopback intefaces while in fact, they are not. Your 3560 must not believe these networks are located on Loopback interfaces because it will never send the packets to the router.

Also, the configuration of the DHCP server should be done only on those devices that actually have direct IP connectivity with the networks they serve. Currently, because your 3560 switch behaves as a Layer2 switch with a direct IP connectivity only to Vlan100, the configuration of the DHCP server is misplaced. Correctly, it should be configured on the router because it is connected to all VLANs in question. Later, as you proceed, you will learn about DHCP Relay Agent service that allows you to put a DHCP server into a different network than the clients are, but let's not complicate things right now.

Best regards,

Peter

Hello Grace,

Because of this, you have tricked your 3560 into believing that the entire networks 172.16.10.0/24, 172.16.20.0/24, 172.16.30.0/24 are connected to the Loopback intefaces while in fact, they are not. Your 3560 must not believe these networks are located on Loopback interfaces because it will never send the packets to the router.

Currently, because your 3560 switch behaves as a Layer2 switch with a direct IP connectivity only to Vlan100, the configuration of the DHCP server is misplaced. Correctly, it should be configured on the router because it is connected to all VLANs in question.

Hi! Peter:

Thank you for all the help.  I removed all the loopbacks, and add ip helper-address to each subinterface in the router.  Now I can ping and get IP for my hosts now.

Thanks again!
