Need some routing Help!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am working on a new Intranetwork , I am creating three domains within this intranet. I have three routers one for each domain and three switches. Each switch is a CISCO 3624 with two slots one Ethernet and one Serial port on each Slot. The problem that I am finding is that after I configure the routers and the switches i can ping from the pc to the etherenet prot of the router but I cannot ping the serial port IP address. Is it a probblem with my addressing? for example: I would use 192.168.3.1/24 for the e0 and for s0 i would use 192.168.10.3/24 and the host computer would have 192.168.3.10 with the GW of 192.168.3.1. I put in a clock rate of 64000 but I'm not shure if that even matters in this case. Please help.

Sounds like a clocking or cabling problem then.
One of your routers will need to have a "DCE" cable, and the other a "DTE" cable. It's important to get this bit right.
On the router that has the DCE cable, you need to run the "clock rate 64000" command on the interface
You don't need that command on the one with the DTE cable.
Does that help?

Unless you have the serial interfaces "line up, protocol up" state, you will not be able to ping your own serial ip.
How are you connecting these three routers by their serial interfaces?

Yes, there all connected to each other by serial connection

Can you be more specific? Are you using DTE/DCE cable pairs? Other?
Can you provide output of "show interface" ?
Can you provide output of "show ip route"

TAMSCODAN - it is not enough that they are "connected".
That sounds like you've put wires between them, but as lrmoore said earlier, you need to have the "up/up" status.
That means that both the hardware and software need to be configured correctly.
Are the routers connected DIRECTLY from one to the other by the serial cables, or do you go from their serial cables into the wall and off somewhere else?
By the way, what protocol are you using on the Serial ports?
Is it the default or is is something else?
As both Mark and lrmoore have said, you need to post the results of the show interface command.
You could make a lot of progress more quickly if you can work directly with someone who has a little more network knowledge, even a CCNA would help a lot.
