Simple VLAN can't access internet

chrisdohan

Level 1

I am trying to learn about VLANs and attempting to create a 2nd VLAN on my Cisco 871 router on FastEthernet #3 as a secure "guest" network. I can't get my 2nd VLAN to access the internet.

VLAN1 (default): 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0

VLAN2: 192.168.4.1 255.255.255.0  configured on FastEthernet #3

On VLAN2 I can get an address from the DHCP server and I can ping 192.168.4.1 and 192.168.3.1. However I can not access the internet or ping the WAN gateway on VLAN2. I have assigned FE3 to VLAN2. Added the 2nd vlan subnet to the DHCP pool and added the 2nd vlan subnet to the NAT ACL. What am I missing? Do I need to add a static route? I would be confused if this was the case, since I don't see any static routes defined for the default VLAN. I believe you can have 2 VLANs on the 871.

Unfortunetly I am using CCP mainly for config, but can sort of make my way through the CLI. Here is the relevant sections of my config. Sorry if CCP put extra junk in it, or if I deleted too much.

Hi,

So far i can see one problem with the config and that is

ip dhcp pool DHCP_Vlan2
   import all
   network 192.168.4.0 255.255.255.0
   dns-server 192.168.3.12 167.206.251.129
   default-router 192.168.3.1

it should be 192.168.4.1

Change it and give it a try

As pointed by Hitesh change the default router ip for vlan 2 in DHCP pool and try access the internet from vlan 2 host.

Hope to Help !!

Ganesh.H

Thanks for replying. I did change the VLAN2 DHCP pool to 192.168.4.1 as suggested and made sure my clients refreshed their config. However, same problem remains. I still can't ping outside addresses including my ISP's gateway. I can ping the router gateway 192.168.4.1 and the external public IP address, but that's it.

Any additional steps to debug this problem? I can access/ping the IP addresses from within the router and the first default VLAN.

Thank you for your time so far.

I figured it out. I took a close look at the difference between VLAN1 and VLAN2:

interface Vlan1
description $FW_INSIDE$
ip address 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly
zone-member security in-zone
!
interface Vlan2
ip address 192.168.4.1 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly

and noticed that VLAN2 does not have the "zone-member security in-zone" line. I have a firewall configured for this router and the firewall was blocking the connections on VLAN2. I really don't understand the firewall at all for this router, so I need to learn about that next. I also purposely deleted most of the firewall rules in my posted config to make it shorter.

Last question would be, if I want to block interVLAN communication, is this generally done by firewall rules or NAT ACLs?

Chris

I do not see how NAT ACLs would prevent inter vlan traffic. I believe that the usual solution would be implementation of access list/access-group on the VLAN interfaces.

Thanks. I learned a lot from this test setup. Yes, NAT ACLs make no sense. Blocking inter VLAN seems to work as expected with normal access lists attatched to the VLAN interface.

Thanks again.
