Ticket 1. You should remove the “Frame-relay interface-dlci 324″ command on the S1/0.322 sub-interface of R3 and replace it with “Frame-relay interface-dlci 322″. An you should replace the “Frame-relay interface-dlci 332 with “Frame-relay interface-dlci 324″ on the s1/0.324 sub-interface of R3.
You can ping from PC1 to see where the problem lies. PC1 can ping the S1/0.223 sub-interface on R2 but cannot ping the S1/0.322 on R3 (note: Frame-relay is configured so that the path of a packet going from R2 to R5 is, R2>R3>R4>R5). Therefore the problem is most likely located on R2 and beyond. After you determine where the problem is you can begin to trouble shoot.
The partial output from “show interface S1/0, S1/0.322, S1/0.324″ on R3 show that the interface is up and line protocol is up.
R3#show int S1/0
Serial1/0 is up, line protocol is up
!
!
R3#show int s1/0.322
Serial1/0.322 is up, line protocol is up
!
!
R3#show int S1/0.324
Serial1/0.324 is up, line protocol is up
!
!
From this output, we can assume the problem is most likely on layer 3.

However the ospf and eigrp configurations on R3 match with the Ospf/eigrp configurations on R2 and R4.

From this output we can confirm that the ospf and eigrp configurations are correct.
Order the “show run” command on R3 and you will receive a partial output.
interface Serial1/0.322 point-to-point
ip address 172.17.1.14 255.255.255.252

interface Serial1/0.324 point-to-point
ip address 172.17.1.17 255.255.255.252
frame-relay interface-dlci 322
!
From this output we see a mismatch in the sub-interfaces. To fix the problem, simply replac the frame-relay interface-dlci commands with corresponding dlci numbers.
Ticket 1. You should remove the “Frame-relay interface-dlci 324″ command on the S1/0.322 sub-interface of R3 and replace it with “Frame-relay interface-dlci 322″. An you should replace the “Frame-relay interface-dlci
322* not 332
with “Frame-relay interface-dlci 324″ on the s1/0.324 sub-interface of R3.
hi….Thank you very much for such great knowledge. still i hv not crtified any cisco exam.i m planning for same .plz guide me.and need your help everytime so plz plz share such type of data on my email id…once again thank you so much and love u.. tc
I’ve went through tickets 1-10 with hardly any problem. I started on ticket #11 about 20 minutes ago and cannot figure it out. Any hints?
Nevermind, my GNS3 will just messing up
. I found the cause early on, but that didn’t fix it. Once I restarted the lab and changed the route it worked perfectly.
Ticket 2. I Found found where the problem is. It’s either on R1 or R2, because i cannot ping R2 and on from R1 and i cant pint R1 and on from R2. Also all the interfaces are up. But i cant seem to find the problem… Some help?
Ticket2# you need to modify ospf 1 in R1,
no network 172.17.1.9 0.0.0.0 area 2
then
network 172.17.1.9 0.0.0.0 area 1
cheers,
Hey guys,
Have you got any idea about Ticket#3.
I am not sure, but I have realized there is something wrong with eigrp hello interval. Any idea?
Thanks a lot.
Cheers
I found the issue for ticket#3
The issue is about nat configuration on R5.
You have to change “ip nat inside” and “ip nat outside” for two interfaces “fastethernet 0/0 and serial 1/0″
Cheers.
i cant ping from any where even from the PCs it says ” Unrecognized host or address, or protocol not running”. please Help!
Which ticket you mean?
I successfully fixed all issues on tickets
on all tickets!
maybe your cpu is too busy? thus the routers cannot get their turns to run. What is your cpu and how much is the memory?
ticket #8
I take out the “area 1 stub” on R1 , it’s work
And I take out the vitual link on all R1 andR2 , add “area 1 stub ” on R1 andR2 , it doesn’t work.
Question—how do I config a stub as this situation in area 1
you still need the virtual link
I am unable to ping from pc1. On checking the switch config, nothing is configured on ASW1 or DSW1. Should the configuration be present or are we meant to configure it as part of troubleshooting. I have checked labs 1 – 5. However routers are all configured. Please help.
make sure you are using exactly the same version of IOS for the switches
Thanks David, you were spot on.
Dear All,
I download all Tickets and i am not able to open in GNS3.
Please need support to open these labs in gns3
Ashfaq
Open the .net file in notepad and see what is the path required
Make sure you have the same paths for the folders like working , images , etc
And also get the same iOS images and put them I’m the correct folders
Dear David,
Thanks for support,
Now my Labs Tickets are opening and working fine but i don’t have questions to perform the labs. I check in the folder there is no task to trouble shoot the labs ticket.
Please help me, if you have a scenario to perform the lab tickets.

Ashfaq
A troubleshooting ticket reports that PC1 can not ping the external server at 209.65.69.2
Any idea about ticket# 9.
Corrected the virtual link issue on R2
I think there is a problem on R5 but unable to find it.
R3 needs to originate a default route into ospf domain

Dear,
For Ticket no 3 i changed nat inside and outside on both interface but the R1 cannot ping 209.65.69.2.
From R1 can ping 9.6.209.246 but not 9.6.209.241 and 209.65.69.2
i add redistribute cammand in R5
Router bgp 65001
redistribute eigrp 9
and
Router eigrp 9
redistribute bgp 65001 11111
it was working fine. i can ping from pc1 to server 209.65.69.2
Please advice it’s ok or not
Regards,
Ashfaq Ahmed
Please advise.
just switch nat inside outside interface
Dear Taskie,
I try first switch nat inside outside but can’t work. after redistribute it was working fine. Please advice is there required any redistribute route or not when on border router hanve BGP and Eigrp.
can you give me idea about Ticket 9
from PC i can ping R5 but not server
i checked all but not successed.
Regards,
Dear,
I read Mr. David comment.
Now i can ping R5 in Ticket 9
i just command in R3 default-information originate always
after this it is working fine.
Thanks Mr. David
am doing the tickets and cant seem to see the problem with number 15
Can ping R1 int ip address 172.17.1.1 but not the .9 address on the same router. Have checked ospf and is working fine. Also check the default route on the pc which is fine. Can asnyone point me in the right direction?
pls make sure you typed the correct ip address

i would suggest to check routing table on asw1

as you can see, the network 172.17.1.8/30 is not in the routing table od dsw1
I saw that, but didnt understand why opsf is not propagating the route when dsw1 is showing a neigbor of 172.17.1.9
Does this mean it requires a gateway of last resort?
area 2 is not connected to the backbone area 0, so a virtual link is required in area 1, between r2 and r1
Yes I know. And I have checked both configs for R1 AND R2 and the virtual link is in and correct.
you should see that the virtual link is not up.
