Interfaces FE on Cisco 2821 problem
Hello,
I have a Cisco 2821 router. It has 2 GigabitEthernet interfaces and 8 FastEthernet interfaces. But FE interfaces don't allow for assigning them IP addresses ("IP addresses may not be configured on L2 links."). Is there any possibility to do this? Other words - I want them to behave the same as GE.
And the second thing. Trying to walkaround this, I made a VLAN, assigned it an IP address and make one of FE interefaces a member of it. I was hoping that, when I ping that address, the answer will be from the assigned interface. But it wasn't happen (there was no ping reply). Is this correct behaviour? And if yes, what is the reason for assigning an IP address for VLAN?
