Like I said, I am trying to think up twisted stuff. Because some
twisted Cisco engineer in a tie dye tee shirt, holy jeans and earth
sandles with a genius IQ is thinking up ways to personally screw
me!!!!! Don't worry, I'll take my medication in a minute.
I've done your config right after my first try a few months ago
and it works fine. Enuff said on that.
I'm looking for some insight on what is happening in my scenario
without the BVI.
Any thoughts on that?
Thanks!

John,
I don't understand why you create two VLAN's and use the same subnet
in both VLAN's? I tried this before but I used a different subnet for
each VLAN. Take a look at my config:
interface FastEthernet0
no ip address
no logging event subif-link-status
!
interface FastEthernet0.20
encapsulation isl 20
no ip redirects
arp timeout 0
bridge-group 20
!
interface FastEthernet0.30
encapsulation isl 30
no ip redirects
arp timeout 0
bridge-group 30
!
interface FastEthernet0.50
encapsulation isl 50
no ip redirects
arp timeout 0
bridge-group 50
!
interface BVI20
ip address 130.10.20.6 255.255.255.0
no logging event subif-link-status
!
interface BVI30
ip address 130.10.30.6 255.255.255.0
no logging event subif-link-status
!
interface BVI50
ip address 130.10.50.6 255.255.255.0
no logging event subif-link-status
bridge irb
bridge 20 protocol ieee
bridge 20 route ip
bridge 30 protocol ieee
bridge 30 route ip
bridge 50 protocol ieee
bridge 50 route ip

Subject: bridging vlan on ISL trunk
First, before anyone says why are you doing this, I'm doing this
because this is the twisted stuff that I might see on the lab. Now for
the question.
I have three routers connected to a Cat5 as such.
R4
|
|
R3---------------CAT5----------------R5
R3 has ethernet into a port on Cat in VLAN 1. R5 has ethernet into
a port on Cat in VLAN 2. Both in same ip subnet , 192.168.10.3 and
192.168.10.5.
R4 is connected via ISL trunk to Cat. R4 has subint fa0/0.1 encap
ISL 1 and subint fa0/0.2 encap isl 2.
Now I have no ip on either subint on R4. I create bridge group 1
on R4, and place both sub interfaces in the bridge group. I try to
ping betwen R3 and R5 with no luck. I then create BVI, put it in
subnet, route IP on bridge group and R3 and R5 can ping.
I need someone to tell me if what I think is happenig when it
fails without IRB is what is really happening, or if not what is
happening. I'm thinking the reason the pings fail without the bvi is
that R3 sends a packet out to the Cat. Say its an arp (cause it is, I
debugged it). The packet gets to the Cat, gets encapsulated in ISL1 to
go up the trunk to R4.
R4 is bridging bewteen the subs, so he takes the packet bridges it
over to fa0/0.2, encapsulates it again in ISL 2 and sends it down
fa0/0.2 towards the cat and vlan 2. So now I'm thinking I have a
packet with 2 ISL headers. The packet goes back down the trunk to the
Cat to VLAN 2. The cat strips off the outermost ISL header (isl2) and
forwards the packet to R5 with the ISL1 header still on it. R5 gets a
ISL encap packet and doesn't know what to do with this. Or perhaps
becasuse the packet isn't an etehrnet packet headin out the etehrnet
port, the Cat drops it.
When I use a BVI on R4, he strips the fist ISL header, so when the
packet reaches R5, it is a ethernet packet with no ISL header.
Of course this could be totally wrong, but it sounds good! Someone
let me know if I'm wrong. (As if I have to ask that with this
bunch!<G>)
John
