Routing issue

Question

hi, can someone please tell me what i am doing wrong. here is my config:
CRURT1#sho run
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 3142 bytes

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.1.1
end
CRURT1#
here's the problem. I cant ping anything on the 192.168.254.0 subnet from anywhere on the network. the route is advertised in eigrp and i have chacked the routers at other sites and the route is there. when i do a traceroute from another router i get this:
Security-Core#traceroute 192.168.254.8
Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 192.168.254.8
1 10.10.1.20 9 msec 8 msec 0 msec
2 * * *
3 * * *
4 * * *
and so on to the 30 hop limit.
This subnet is on a new Ethernet card i installed. The strange thing is from the router that has the subnet directly attached i get this result:
CRURT1#ping 192.168.254.8
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.254.8, timeout is 2 seconds:
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 8/8/8 ms

what am i missing? surely if i can ping from the router and all routes are advertised it should work from anywhere?

Answer 1

Sounds like the default gateway on the devices such as 192.168.254.8 is wrong. I dont think you have a routing problem because your trace route got you to the router with 192.168.254.0 directly connected. Can you ping anything on the 10.10.1. network or any other network from the 192.168.254.0 net?
Try an extended ping on the effected router. Just type the command "ping" without any arguments and accept all the defaults until it gets to the portion where you can pick a different interface or IP to ping from. At that point choose a seperate interface than the network 192.168.254.0 interface. I am willing to bet that this will fail, because that host cant get back to any other interface on the same router, other than the one its directly connected with.
