2924XL and Encapsulation

srberg5219

So we replaced a failed HP (sigh..should have had a Cisco in all along) switch with a backup Cisco 2924-XL. Performed basic config, and plugged it into our 2611 Router. Connection was just fine...THEN:

I went and enabled trunking/encapsulation on interface FastEthernet0/1 with the following (no errors):

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport mode trunk

Our connection was fine until the above. Interface 0/0 on the router is also configured for encapsulation and now it seems the switch and router are not communicating.

When I bring it up in CNA, it shows the router as an "Unsupported Device". I downloaded and installed the latest image for this 2924XL and it installed fine...Image file: c2900xl-c3h2s-mz.120-5.WC17.bin

Any ideas? My gratitude ahead of time!

What's the configuration on the router ?

Is the router performing the inter-vlan routing ?

A sanitized config from the switch and router can expedite the troubleshooting process.

Yes the router is performing the inter routing...

CNA was developed well after the 2924 which is well past end of life so it wouldn't be supported. If you are trying to trunk you will have to supply the router config so we can look at it .

My apologies..Here is the Router config:

My gratitude ahead of time!

You need to create all the VLANs running on the router at this switch as well.

VLAN 2,3,10,11 and 16

Once you do that, you can configure the port in the switch as dot1q trunk.

Hi,

- Create needed vlans on the switch.

- Make sure you have configured .1q encapsulation in both subinterfaces in the router.

- set the default gateway on each hosts with its corresponding router subinterface ip.

- Make sure you have successfuly configured trunk ports on the switch, trunk interfaces should not appear in the output of the 'sh vlan' command as associated to a particular vlan).

Good work!

Here is an example of a router on a stick configuration with a C2924XL.

Good work!

Your original post says that you did basic config on the switch and it was talking to the router ok. Then you configured trunking and connectivity was disrupted. I note that the router is configured to process 7 VLANs on the trunk port. Did your "basic config" include multiple VLANs?

Before you configured trunking interface Fa0/1 on the switch was an access port and was communicating with the router. What VLAN was it a member of? It would have been sending untagged frames (since it is an access port) and I assume that the router would have treated it as part of the native VLAN.

I agree with Edison that seeing the config from the switch would be helpful.

Sorry, didn't see the config above.
