I have a ISP 4321 Router in my Cisco Packet Tracer. and I added a NIM-ES2-4 module in the Router, that provides four switching ports. and now, I configured two VLANs to the two switch port of them. and now it created the two VLANs, you can see below, there are Vlan10 and Vlan11:

Router#show ip interface brief 
Interface              IP-Address      OK? Method Status                Protocol 
GigabitEthernet0/0/0   unassigned      YES unset  administratively down down 
GigabitEthernet0/0/1   unassigned      YES unset  administratively down down 
GigabitEthernet0/1/0   unassigned      YES unset  up                    up 
GigabitEthernet0/1/1   unassigned      YES unset  up                    up 
GigabitEthernet0/1/2   unassigned      YES unset  up                    down 
GigabitEthernet0/1/3   unassigned      YES unset  up                    down 
Vlan1                  unassigned      YES unset  administratively down down 
Vlan10                 10.10.10.1      YES manual up                    up 
Vlan11                 10.10.20.1      YES manual up                    up

I want to know whether the Vlan10 and Vlan11 are two virtual Router ports?


If the Vlan10 and VLan11 are two virtual Router ports. I have configured the IP address on them, you can check the upper data. and I assigned the Vlan10 to GigabitEthernet0/1/0, the Vlan11 to GigabitEthernet0/1/1, all are access mode.

enter image description here

but now I cannot from 10.10.10.2 to ping 10.10.20.1:

Router>ping 10.10.20.1

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.10.20.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)

the Center Router(Router11)'s route is bellow:

Router#show ip route
Codes: L - local, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
       i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
       * - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
       P - periodic downloaded static route

Gateway of last resort is not set

     10.0.0.0/8 is variably subnetted, 4 subnets, 2 masks
C       10.10.10.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan10
L       10.10.10.1/32 is directly connected, Vlan10
C       10.10.20.0/24 is directly connected, Vlan11
L       10.10.20.1/32 is directly connected, Vlan11

So my questions are:

  1. Whether the Vlan10 and Vlan20 in the Center Router are two virtual router interfaces?
  2. Why the Router 10 can not ping the Router11?

  1. Yes, these also called switch virtual interfaces or SVI.
  2. Because your Router10 don't know how to get to 10.10.20.0/24 network. Add route to Router10 configuration:

#(conf-t) ip route 10.10.20.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1

  • thanks, bro. but there still a issue, after I added this static route to Router 10, I can ping the 10.10.20.1, but I can not ping the 10.10.20.2. Commented Nov 16, 2018 at 7:57

    @three-blocks, same thing here. Your Router4 (I'm assuming that he's got 10.10.20.2 IP) don't know anything about 10.10.10.0/24 network. So same solution: on Router4 #(conf-t) ip route 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.20.1 Commented Nov 16, 2018 at 7:59
  • I got you, because there is no back. thank you, bro. Commented Nov 16, 2018 at 8:01
