I have 2 Cisco 2524 routers, both of which have 2- 5-in-1 Serial WAN modules installed. I have all the wires needed. One problem I dont know how to hook it all up. Im just playing with it for a home lab, I am wondering how to hook it up so I will have 2 networks and the routers connecting them.. I am a complete n00B at this,

Any help, or web links would be appreciated!

Hi MrKill,

If you want to connect the routers together via the serial ports then you will need to configure one side as a DCE by configuring a clockrate on the serial interface, the other side of the connection will then be the DTE and pick up the clockrate.

Eg. to have a 128k link between the routers
int serial 0 (substitute your interface no.)
clockrate 128

Each router should be able to see each other as a CDP neighbour and once you have set the ip addresses you should able to telnet across the serial link.

Ok thanks!

I have one more problem now.. I wane my network design to be like this:

Internet
|
|
Router #1 -----Serial-------- Router #2
| |
| |
Sybnet #1 Subnet #2

I have the Cisco 2524 routers, but they only have one Ethernet connection each. I cant see how to hook up Router #1 to my incomming Internet, and the LAN?

(hopefully you can see what I mean by the design.. it didnt turn out how I wanted when I submitted the post )

To put two subnets off you ethernet interface you need a smart switch(configurable vlans) and isl encapsulation(or .1q)) capability on the router(most likely yours does not) I suggest if youv'e got an open expansion slot you buy another ethernet module for one of the routers.
