How to Connecting Cisco Router to another DSL modem-router

I have two routers:

First one, connected to the DSL line directly, a huawei HG532ci, it gives me access to the internet correctly to any computer by simply connection an ethernet cable to any of its 4 ports (or wireless as well).

I have another Cisco 2911(cisco WRT120N) i want to connect to the fist one, and connect another computer to this second router (i have my reasons to do this, and not connecting directl to the first one).

So i want the second router (cisco) to give access to the internet with its ports, just like the first one.

I connected the second router (cisco) to the first one, from a LAN2 port in the first router to the "internet" port in the second, that receives the signal, as you see in the picture below.

The first (huawei) router, settings are as follows: see picture huawei.jpg

And the cisco router settins are also in the next pictures.

Whan am i doing wrong? Cisco IP is 192.168.1.2, Huawei router IP is the same but .1, dhcp is enabled, etc... I have no i idea what setting should be whats causing the cisco router not givin internet access

I have also attached an IPconfig from the computer connected to the cisco router.

thank you!!

The solution:

It sounds like you just want to use the Cisco router as a switch to get more network ports.  If this is the case, then you will want to disable all DHCP services on the Cisco and connect the LAN ports of the two routers.  If you are trying to segment a section of your network behind the Cisco router, then you will need to choose separate IP ranges for the two networks, in order for the Cisco router to properly NAT.  If I am completely off on what you are trying to do, then you may want to provide a little more information as to why you are adding the cisco into the mix. Then we can figure out how it should be setup.

The GBIC Connection of Cisco WS-C2960S-24PS-L

The GBIC Connection

Need to terminate two fibres and use two gbics on each end and that this is due to how single-mode gbics/fibres work (and in this particular case its single-mode being used, not multi-mode)

The whole point behind this is that we're going to connect a "main-cabinet" to two "sub-cabinets", and we are trying to figure out if a WS-C2960S-24TS-L has sufficient "gbic-room" to connect the four WS-C2960S-48TS-L's (two in each "sub-cabinets")

1 The bottle neck would not be the 24TS-L itself, but speed of the up-links to the 24TS.
For each 48TS-L you will have up to 48 devices connect at 1 Gbps, that all are going to try and go over the same single 1 Gbps up-link to the 24TS-L.
The only way to remove that bottle neck would be to ether get new switches that allow for  10 Gbps up-links or run multiple 1 Gbps links in a Etherchannel setup.

2 "Is the right gbic to use this one: GLC-LH-SM=   ?"

Yes, but make sure the installed fiber is "single mode"  That gbic will NOT work with "multi mode" fiber

"And each one of these gbic takes 2 stands of fiber?"

 Yes

"How would you lay fibres in such a setup?"

I would give each 48TS a connection straight back to the 24TS.  I would not connect the 48TS's to each other.  That runs the risk of creating a spanning-tree loop, which could take down the network.

How are the ports labeled on a Cisco WS-C2960G-48TC-L

WS-C2960G-48TC-L： 44 10/100/1000 and 4 dual-purpose uplinks, has two or four dual purpose ports that are a combination of an RJ45 copper and an SFP slot. In the CLI when I do a show interface status I get 48 ports. Gi0/1-44 show as 10/100/1000baseTX but Gi0/45-48 show as auto not present.

How does this work?

Do the dual purpose ports de-activate port Gi0/45-48 when they are used?

Below is the solution:

It is a dual purpose port, so you able to use it 10/100/1000 copper or you able to plug SFP to use optical connections!

so you have GigabitEthernet ports 0/1 to 0/44 copper

and you have GigabitEthernet 0/45 to 0/48 dual purpose ports....

it shows no sfp detected....:

Gi0/2  notconnect  1    auto  auto Not Present

it shows sfp detected....:

Gi0/1  40 es szoba     connected   trunk  a-full a-1000 1000BaseSX SFP

How to Recover the Cisco WS-C2960S-48FPD-L Default Factory Settings

How to Recover the Cisco WS-C2960S-48FPD-L Default Factory Settings

Do you meet the problem, too? Have tried to reset WS-C2960S-48LPD-L to default factory settings with procedures listed by CISCO, including holding the Mode button longer to go into Express Setup. However, it still intializes flashfs and continues its normal setup. It may be a hardware malfunction, but I just wanted to make sure there was not another solution. Now, some tips for to recover it:

If you just want to clear the settings, do a "show vlan", and then in config mode do a "no vlan xxx" for all vlans listed in the first command (except vlan 1 because it can't be removed). From there, a "write erase" and all configuration will be cleared after a reboot. Or you can contact your previous supplier or contact your sales representative. You can also email to the supplier 3anetwork.com to have a good advice.

What is NAT and when does the router perform NAT

NAT: Network address translation,  is the process of modifying IP address information in IP packet headers while in transit across a traffic routing device.When you use the Cisco 2900 router, Cisco 1921 router, you should know these.

Two different types of NAT:

Static NAT: The simplest type of NAT provides a one-to-one translation of IP addresses. It is often also referred to as one-to-one NAT. In this type of NAT only the IP addresses, IP header checksum and any higher level checksums that include the IP address need to be changed. The rest of the packet can be left untouched (at least for basic TCP/UDP functionality, some higher level protocols may need further translation). Basic NATs can be used when there is a requirement to interconnect two IP networks with incompatible addressing. With static NAT, translations exist in the NAT translation table as soon as you configure static NAT command(s), and they remain in the translation table until you delete the static NAT command(s).

Dynamic NAT: Dynamic NAT has some similarities and differences compared to static NAT. Like static NAT, the NAT router creates a one-to-one mapping between an inside local and inside global address and changes the IP addresses in packets as they exit and enter the inside network. However, the mapping of an inside local address to an inside global address happens dynamically. Dynamic NAT sets up a pool of possible inside global addresses and defines matching criteria to determine which inside local IP addresses should be translated with NAT. The dynamic entry stays in the table as long as traffic flows occasionally. With dynamic NAT, translations do not exist in the NAT table until the router receives traffic that requires translation. Dynamic translations have a timeout period after which they are purged from the translation table.

When does the router perform NAT?

Inside to Outside:

If IPSec then check input access list

decryption – for CET (Cisco Encryption Technology) or IPSec

check input access list

check input rate limits

input accounting

redirect to web cache

policy routing

routing

NAT inside to outside (local to global translation)

crypto (check map and mark for encryption)

check output access list

inspect (Context-based Access Control (CBAC))

TCP intercept

Queueing

Outside to Inside:

If IPSec then check input access list

decryption – for CET or IPSec

check input access list

check input rate limits

Where to buy Cisco WS-X6724-SFP, more lower price and original product?

WS-X6724-SFP : Fabric-Enabled 24-Port SFP-Based Gigabit Ethernet Module. The list price is US$15,000.00.

Distributors, like Ingram Micro, Comstor, Tech Data, Redington etc, different countries different distributors, also different price related to your region, partner level and project level, normally around 30%~60% off GPL;

The price comparison:

1 http://www.hardware.com/products/cisco/WS-X6724-SFP%3d 6342.34 USD, 32% off, more professional but price too too expensive;

2 http://www.servermonkey.com/cisco-ws-x6724-sfp.html 4999.99 USD，as can see from their description, also the list price is not correct. But they are the shop of US, if you are located in US, maybe you can try, otherwise better find a professional networking supplier.

3 http://www.amazon.com/Cisco-WS-X6724-SFP-Catalyst-24-Port-Ethernet/dp/B00018BCTE3849 USD, good price but frankly speaking Amazon is not professional in Cisco products at all, and mary products maybe not the original ones.

How to solve the minor error of Cisco module

Cisco SFP Modules：includes Fast Ethernet SFP, WS-X4624-SFP-E Gigabit Ethernet SFP, OC3/ STM-1, OC12/STM-4, and OC48/ STM-16 SFPs for multimode, short reach, intermediate reach, long reach (40km), and long rach (80m) applications. 

On the network of cisco module, We had a severe lightning storm with power cuts and multiple lightbolts hitting our buildings and grounds around our core server rooms. Luckly the UPSes carried the load and gobbled up the overvoltages etc no problem.

When checking the switch I saw the following (see below), and even after running a "hw-module" reset on each of the affected modules (blades) we still got no power (POE) to the phones, however the computers directly connected were working fine.

Upon reseating or resetting the module we got these errors on bootup of the module:

Basically from what I've found the TESTVDB means that the POE component on the blade has failed, and it will refuse to deliver power, at the time of writing this post, we don't know whether the whole chassis is fried, we assume it isn't as all the other blades and the data is working okay. And one of the other POE blades in the switch survived and still delivers power.

Fault to Cisco, cross fingers and hope the chassis isn't toast too.

Moral of the Story:

It doesn't matter how much UPS protection you add a direct lightning strike will cause significant damage and disruption to systems, the only protection you can have is to have enough staff to deal with the problems, and enough money to fix or replace the faulty kit.
