Point to Point T1 connection problem Navneet 09-25-08

Dear All

I am connecting 2 remote offices with a point to point t1 line using 2
identical Tasman 1001 routers. Office A has no internet connection,
Office B has internet over a seperate T1. I wan to connect both
offices so that computers at Office B can access a file server at
Office A.

PC1(192.168.1.1)-----192.168.1.2-- RouterA----10.10.0.1--------
T1------10.10.0.2---RouterB-192.168.2.1-----| SwitchB |-----
192.168.2.100(pix inside ip) -CISCO 515e PIX-------cisco2600--
internet


The T1 line says it is up. After telnetting into Router A I can ping
both the Ethernet and Serial interface on RouterB, but cannot do the
same from PC1. PC1 is manually assigned an IP and connected into
Ethernet0 on RouterA. I would like to have it so the 2 offices could
simply use the network neighborhood to view remote computers. In
OfficeB the PIX is the current default gateway.

I've tried several different addressing setups, but not matter what I
do I cannot ping from PC1 to any device in OfficeB. Computers in
OfficeB cannot ping PC1 or the RouterA, but each Tasman can ping each
other.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds to me like you need to turn up a routing protocol and advertise
your LAN segments, or put in static routes so that Router A knows
about Subnet B through Router B's WAN interface, and Router B knows
about Subnet A through Router A's WAN Interface.

This sounds like a routing issue, and I suspect there is more gear in
here than what you say.

What kind of routing statements do you have setup on RouterA and RouterB?
Does RouterA know how to get to the subnet behind RouterB and vice-versa?

What is the default route on the ethernet card in PC1? Is it
192.168.1.2, the IP address you list as the ethernet interface of RouterA?

Can you ping 10.10.0.1 from PC1? (ie. this would show the routing from
PC1 to just RouterA is working).

Try changing WAN subnet from 10.10.0.0/30 to 192.168.3.0/30

Some of the routing protocols do not work well when 192.168 LAN
subnets connected by 10.10 WAN subnets...
