Troubleshooting - MirandaE20-class/tech-journal GitHub Wiki

During this lab I ran into issues getting the PDUs to connect through the different subnets, I took the following steps to resolve the issues:

• I pinged the PCs to the router within their subnet to ensure that they could send and receive PINGs.
• After establishing the serial connections, I had the routers ping each other to ensure the serial connections were up and running.
• Once I established the serial connections were working, I had the PC from Joyce ping the Skiff router to see if it was able to talk to the other subnet, the ping failed.
• I went back through my setup notes from previous labs and double-checked the subnet mask to ensure it was correct.
  • The Skiff First PC had been assigned an incorrect IP Address and this is where I caught that mistake, but I still could not ping the Skiff Router from the Joyce PC.
• Using my previous lab notes, I caught that I had made a mistake when giving the Joyce and Skiff Subnets their Gateway IP and corrected it to be 192.168.1.x (With x being the IP address of their respective routers) instead of 192.168.1.1
• After correcting these issues I had no problems pinging the computers using different subnets.
