Okay I'm putting together my lab and I'm having some routing problems. I hjave the following config:


R01
10.0.1.1

R02
10.0.1.4 [gateway 10.0.1.1]
10.0.2.1

DC01
10.0.2.2 [gateway 10.0.2.1]

I'm trying to ping 10.0.1.1 from DC01 but I can't get a reply. I've tried to add the following route on R02 but I get an erro [bad argument]:

route add -p 10.0.1.0 255.0.0.0 10.0.1.1

Any thoughts?

first of all try using the RRAS console. Second im not sure how much knowledge you have but judging from your certs you must know a lot. Have you check the routing table for R02 to see if it has an entry for R01? Again use the RRAS console ( i find it easier in the MS world then typing). Basically R02 should know that all traffic for 10.0.1.0 should be forwarded to the router 10.0.1.1

ps excuse the punt if you think im playing the clown but like i said i dont know how much you know.

 

I don't know if this makes a difference or not as I never tried without it before but here it goes:

Should there be "mask" in the command that goes something like this "route add -p 10.0.1.0 mask 255.0.0.0 10.0.1.1"

Again I don't know if it makes a difference but just a suggestion.

Its just that at work when I am trying to troubleshoot a system remotely I usually have to add a route and I always use the method above that I mentioned.

 

Yes, there should be a 'mask' command in there just as Prof has stated

 

Thanks for the replies. It was me being stupid, the default mask should have been 255.255.255.0 and not 255.0.0.0

I also checked and the add route command can be done successfully with or without the 'mask' text.


Thanks again guys, sometimes I just can't see the woods for the trees!
