    Hi,

    In the process of setting-up a two router (C2620 & C2503) lab in
    prepartion for CCNA study. Have connected via DCE/DTE crossover.
    Probleming with C2620 in that it appears it does not receive any
    routing updates.

    The above output shows both routers sending routing packets, and that
    C2503 receives and processes, but C2620 does not appear to receive
    even though the serial link is working.

    Can anyone offer an explanation?

    TIA,

    Forgot to mention that the same behaviour is observed when the routers were config'd to use RIP instead of IGRP. The routers have two (2) serial ports and the DCE/DTE cable has been used in all four possible setups, i.e. S0/S0, S0/S1, S1/S0/ S1/S1, and with both routers config'd to provide the clock timing, i.e. clock rate 64000.

    Do you have anything plugged in to the Ethernet 0 interface of the 2503? If not, I assume you do have something plugged into the Fa0/0 interface of the 2620, right?

    Hi Boson,

    Thank you kindly for your reply.

    Yes, both routers are plugged into a C2900XL which is, normally, configured for two VLANs (1, 2) with a router attached to each.

    C2900>show int status
    Port Name Status Vlan Duplex Speed Type
    ------- ------------------ ------------ -------- ------ ------- ----
    Fa0/16 connected 1 A-Full A-100 100BaseTX/FX
    Fa0/18 connected 2 A-Half A-10 100BaseTX/FX

    When both routers are attached to the same VLAN, both report receiving updates from invalid source:

    C2620#
    00:18:00: IGRP: received update from invalid source 192.168.3.254 on FastEthernet0/0

    C2503#
    IGRP: received update from invalid source 192.168.1.245 on Ethernet0
    IGRP: received update from 192.168.2.20 on Serial1

    This behaviour is, as I understand it, normal. The C2503 also reports receiving a valid update via the serial link.

    C2503#show int serial 0
    Serial0 is administratively down, line protocol is down
    C2503#show int serial 1
    Serial1 is up, line protocol is up

    C2620#show int serial 0/0
    Serial0/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down
    C2620#show int serial 0/1
    Serial0/1 is up, line protocol is up

    When you've got things attached in a ring like that, you're likely going to have a looped condition, which will shut down an interface. What's the interface status on your Ethernet interfaces?

    C2503#show int ethernet 0
    Ethernet0 is up, line protocol is up

    C2620#show int fast 0/0
    FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up

    There shouldn't be a ring, as the routers are normally attached to different VLANs. So unless there is a fault with the C2900XL there is no way for a ring to form. Attaching to the same VLAN was simply a test to check on whether routing packets were being sent/received via the ethernet connection.

    Further testing with the use of a 2611 router I have discovered that the issue appears to be that 2600 series routers do not like receiving routing updates via the serial link from a 2500 series router, i.e. 2620/2503 would result in only the 2503 updating its routing table, 2611/2503 would result in only the 2503 updating its routing table while 2620/2611 would result in both routers updating their routing table.

    Is this a known issue? If so, does anyone know what the resolution for this problem is?

    TIA.

    Discussions via another forum have lead me to believe the C2503 router if faulty in that the transmitters in both serial ports (Serial 0 and Serial 1) are not functioning properly, as the C2620 router never reports in-bound packets even though the C2503 reports out-bound packets.

    Where did you buy it from? Counterfeit Cisco gear often has ports that don't work quite right. You could call Cisco to see if the serial number is in their database and not registered to someone else...
