Hey guys - Just wanted to say you do a great job responding to this forum. I have an issue that I could use some help with. I have a Cisco 831 router connected to a DSL router provided by my ISP with 5 static ip addresses. All I want to do is provide Internet connectivity with this 831 router to some office staff but I can't get it to work when I statically map an IP address to the Ethernet1 interface. The Internet only works when I set Ethernet1 to DHCP from the DSL router. But, I don't want to do that because I need the other 4 static addresses for something else and I don't want the 831 to use the ones in use.
Here is the config:
!
version 12.3
no service pad
service timestamps debug uptime
service timestamps log uptime
service password-encryption
!
hostname ******

end
XXX.XXX.101.201 is the IP address of the DSL router. I want to use XXX.XXX.101.205 as the IP address for Ethernet1. When it works under DHCP, here is the portion of the config:
interface Ethernet1
ip address dhcp client-id Ethernet1
ip nat outside
duplex auto
no cdp enable
What I did was to static map all of the parameters I received from when The Ethernet1 interface was to DHCP to the current config. But, it doesn't work when running an Internet browser. I even did a nslookup when it was statically mapped, and I received answers when querying XXX.XXX.101.201. But, when I attempt to surf, it doesn't work. When I try to ping www.whatever.com at the client machine, I receive Destination host unreachable. Do you guys have any ideas? THANKS!

hi
Do u know how the SP is mapping the static ips to you ?
There should be a static route (reverse route) for the static ips being provided by the SP towards your ip which you are getting randomly from DHCP.
In this case i dont think mapping at the SP end is possible..
Also your nat pool which you configured doesnt seem to be used anywhere and at the first place it has to be corrected..
Again i c that you are using PAT using overload then theres no need to define a pool out there like that and make use of that.
Also clarify where you gonna map the other static ips and are you trying to map them to inside local lan ips ??

I am new to configing cisco routers, so I am not sure if there is any problem w/ your config. I wanted to chime in and say that sometimes when ISP's give you a static IP address, you still have to get it via DHCP. They map your pool of static addresses to the mac address of your cable/dsl modem. Then you set your client router or pc's to dhcp and it gives an IP address out of that pool. I set up a small company on Cox High Speed Cable. The same thing happened to me. They assigned me a static IP address, but I was not able to put in the static address on the external interface. I had to set the interface to DHCP. When I set it to DHCP, I got the correct address. I called them and they verified, that it was static DHCP done by MAC address. Hope this helps.
