hello ,
This is kinda off topic , but if you guys have any networking ( cisco )
mailing list to recommend, please inform me.
it's like this, i need to bridge a router to a router to connect to a
router. Confusing eh ? well, here's how it looks like:
[routerA]e0--------e0[routerB]s0----------s0[routerC]
routerA = Cisco 7507 without serial interface
routerB = Cisco 2514 with serial and ethernet interface
routerC = remote Cisco router.
what i need to achieve is to use routerB as a bridge to connect routerA and
routerC virtually. because routerA doesnt have any serial interface, i use
routerB as a bridge. I need routerA to be virtually directly connected to
routerC because i need to run eBGP. I know this is an exhibition setup but
i'm saving the cost to buy a serial module for the 7507.
is this possible ?
what i did was:
[routerA]
interface ethernet0/0
ip address 172.16.1.2 255.255.255.252
[routerB]
interface ethernet0
bridge-group 1
interface serial0
bridge-group 1
bridge 1 protocol ieee
bridge irb
[routerC]
interface ser0/0
ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.252
but it's not working. i think i miss some specific configuration line here.
but i'm not sure since i'm not also sure if this is possible. to give you a
hint, i tried this setup and is working fine:
[routerA]e0--------e0[routerB]e1----------e0[routerC]
routerA = Cisco 7507
routerB = Cisco 2514
routerC = Cisco 7204
i used routerB as a bridge.
[routerA]
interface ethernet0/0
ip address 172.16.1.2 255.255.255.252
[routerB]
interface ethernet0
bridge-group 1
interface ethernet1
bridge-group 1
bridge 1 protocol ieee
bridge irb
[routerC]
interface ethernet0/0
ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.252
