I have created a lab using Packet Tracer to see if I can connect multiple EIGRP AS together and having a few issues.  The goal is to have West Ridge Hippos and Portland Maverick Riders show information for routing using their own managed EIGRP. If there is a device on either side, when the route hits the core router, it knows to send the traffic over to the corresponding network and not out the default router to the internet.  I understand how to make this work using a static route, but I would like to have the networks managed with EIGRP.  After making these networks connect, I would then like to connect South Harmon Technologies network between the too, but would like the default network to stay with the HIPPO's and router ti the Mavs network if there is a server at the location.  Would I need to create a separate EIGRP AS for the P2P router Links so that routers can route to the corresponding networks? You can download the Packet Tracer File from here, http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=82809196449346265590 . I have no passwords on any of the equipment and have added the core routes information.  ... View more

I have a cisco 501 pix IOS version 6.3.5 and have a IPSEC client VPN tunnel setup and I have no problems connecting to the network. But I would like to to use Cisco IP Communicator so that I can receive and make calls like I was in the office. Is it possible for this to work over the tunnel? My tunnel inside IP is 172.29.1.0 /24 and the phone system is on a 172.16.1.0 /24. TFTP server 172.16.1.1. I tried to connect but it didnt work and someone told me that it would not work with the PIX 501. I just wanted to double check before working on it further. ... View more

I am have problems connecting to my webpage (NAT) after setting up VLANing of my network. I have a PIX515 that is connected to a 4507 switch. I have everything VLANed off at the 4507 and divided off into10.20.0.0 /20 subnets. 10.20.0.0 - 10.20.15.255 is the original network work that was first broken down and everyone was place there for the big division and everything was working fine. But now only 10.20.0.0 - 10.20.15.255 can connect. All the other subnets can get to the internet and do work as normal execpt get to the NAT. I have a VLAN 10.10.10.0/24 that was running with the original VLAN and was able to connect to the NAT. When all the other subnets were unable to connect I tried to remove global (DMZ) 1 192.168.254.254 and replace with global (DMZ) 1 192.168.254.100 - 192.168.254.200 netmask 255.255.255.0. That did not work and blocked me from accessing NAT. I placed global (DMZ) 1 192.168.254.254 back in and I still am unable to connect from my own subnet. Again everything is working except NAT connections. Is there something special I need to do since the VLAN router is behind the firewall? I have been working on this for several days and stumped.

Ok this is a weird problem. My Cisco phones at random times (days or weeks) and random phones (different buildings) are getting a data vlan IP address. The phones are still up and when a user can receive (phone rings) and call other extensions but when they connect the phone goes busy. If you power cycle the phone it will receive a new IP address on the voice vlan. I think it is losing the voice vlan IP and getting the data vlan IP when the lease is up and it tries to request an IP again. But like I said if you power cycle it will get the voice vlan IP, confused. <br> I am assuming this is a routing program since it is coming across vlans to get the data vlan IP. We have 2 separate vlans on 2 different DHCP server. The data vlan DHCP server is windows server 2003 and the Voice vlan is currently on our cisco 4507r. We did have a server 2000 box with the DHCP server for the voice vlan but changed it when we had the phone system upgrade. I had ip helper-address pointing to the DHCP server and still had phones getting a data vlan IP. <br> The 4507r is the core of the network. The Cisco Voice servers are connected to the gi eth ports on the 4507. The data vlan DHCP server is also connect to the gi eth ports on the 4507r. The vlans are configured for the ports. <br> It is only happening with Cisco IP Phones 7970 series phones. <br> We have had this problem since before I started here about 2 years ago. We have updated the phones verions several times without out a resolution. Also we recently upgraded to CUCM to the latest and still have this problem. The phone vendor is looking into this still but I thought maybe there was traffic issue or a route confusion somewhere that might be a vlan or routing problem. <br> I am lost and do not know where else to look to try and trouble shot this. ...

I have a network with a mixture of C3560 and C2900 series switches. As of this week we are lossing the gig port / trunk ports on all of the C2900 series switches. This ranks from WS-C2950, WS-C2950G, WS-C2960, 24 - 48 ports, to PoE and non-PoE. I currently have around 60 C2900 series switchs. The C3560 series has no problems but one location that only has (2) C3560. The gig port / trunk are no longer lit and shutdown. I have not tried to console into one that was down to see what the error was. I have just unplugged the switches and plug them back in, after they boot the system is up and running. Is there a know problem with the IOS on the C2900? I am just confused that is only affecting them and not the C3560, C6509 or C4507. ... View more
