Hi Adarsh, Could you provide some more info, like the configs for the routers? Can you ping router3 from router2? Can you ping router2 from router1 (once the link is up) ? Are the serial links on both router2 as router3 up/up ? Rgds, Remmert Message Posted at:

Hi Sammi, Indeed, ISL is Cisco propietary, so should you consider other vendor's switches in your network, now or in the future, I'd recommend 802.1q. Beware however, dot1q has some drwabacks with regards to loops. Check out

Hi Jeff, I've worked for 2 telco's as a FR-troubleshooter. The experience I have is that the telco looks at the logs of their FR-switch (we used the Stratacom IPX/IGX) and if they see a utilisation of 70% or up, they declare the PVC is overutilised. If you could tell me which provider you have,

Hi Jason, I haven't got too much experience on dv over nbma, but I'll give it a try. As far as I am aware NBMA doesn't forward broadcasts, period. Should you want to connect two RIP-networks via a LAN, I'd reckon a static route should be in place, which you need to redistribute using the

What you might want to try is enter 'clns routing' in global config. This needs to be enabled for is-is to work. Should the router reply with an error message, check your IOS-version. If the router takes it, try the 'router isis' and 'ip router isis' commands again. Hth, Remmert Message Posted

Hi Cheeyong, HSRP indeed won't do the trick, this is a redundancy mechanism. To enable load-sharing, check what routing protocol you are running. OSPF and EIGRP are able to do equal-cost load-sharing by default. If the 2 serial links are unequal cost, I'd recommend EIGRP to provision
