Configuring Cisco ISR 1861 with External Cable Modem

Question

I picked up an 1861 for cheap and I am trying to set it up for home lab. I have taken the Cisco courses for CCNP and I think if this was just a regular router or switch I would be OK, but I can't seem to be able to make the switched ports work with the router port.

I am trying to connect the external cable modem to F0/0. I have it set for DHCP to get IP from the cable company.

Hosts would be connected to the switched ports, including my server which is providing DHCP on the home network.

My sense is that I want to set up PAT overflow with F0/0 as NAT outside, but I can't figure out how to make everything else NAT inside. Or maybe I am not even going in the right direction?

LAN is 192.168.1.1/24 Cable company next hop is 65.175.185.1

Answer 1

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 FastEthernet0/0
ipv6 route ::/0 FastEthernet0/0

Never do that. That's proxy-arp. Too many people do that with zero clue what it actually means... that's not a dialup interface that needs to be forced up.

router ospf 99

Who are you exchanging routes with? You don't need OSPF running. And for that matter, you don't need to have all the switch interfaces in vlan 99.

ip default-gateway 65.175.150.164

This is a host-mode command. It does nothing on a router.

First, ensure routing is enabled: ip routing (it's a default, so won't normally show in the config) Second, enumerate the inside and outside interfaces, and what should be natted:

int f0/0
  ip nat outside
int vlan99
  ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
  ip nat inside
!
ip nat inside source list nat-acl interface f0/0 overload
!
ip access-list standard nat-acl
  permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255

And then configure DHCP:

ip dhcp pool lan
   network 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
   default-router 192.168.1.1
   domain-name my-domain.local
   dns-server 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
   lease 0 1
