cisco 2500 forward to dns

Mar 20, 2006 10 Replies

Hello Everyone,



I have a cisco 2500 router that i am trying to add to my network. I've connected the cisco router to my linksys router (which is my main router) and I am able to telnet to the cisco router, configure etc...I am not able to get DNS working on the cisco router. I can ping all of the other computers and the linksys router from the cisco router. I've tried adding my isp name servers to the cisco router, but that's not working. I tried adding my linksys router as a name server on my cisco router and i am able to ping from the cisco router and i see the translation happening but the ping response never gets back. Any suggestions ?


Thank you,



Have you added a default gateway to the Cisco to use the Linksys as the default route?

Hi,

I tried adding the default gateway being the linksys, but it still doesnt come back, although the translation happens and i get the right ip address back. what do you think ?

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 152.2.210.80, timeout is 2 seconds... Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)

Do you have any access-lists configured?

I have this access-list configured...

access-list 101 permit udp any any eq domain access-list 101 permit udp any eq domain any

You need a route from the linksys router to the Cisco router.

ah ok, not sure if the linksys router is capable, but that sounds about right. I'll check it out.

Thanks again,

Actually i dont think adding a route on the linksys to the cisco will matter because they are both on the same network. I tried it anyway, but still no luck...

Where abouts is this access list configured. Which interface in which direction?

Chris.

Please post config this will be the only true way to help
