Routing with RIP failing on Cisco 3620

So your saying that a ping from the 3620 doesn't reach a PC on the 208.186.111.0 network?

I think we need a more detailed explaination of your testing. Could you provide the following?

Goto Start > Run > CMD and enter TRACERT w.x.y.z

Traceroute from a PC on the 70.97.76.x network to 208.186.111.x  
Traceroute from a PC on the 208.186.111.x network to 70.97.76..x  

Also the IP routing table from the Siemens se5940

On the Routers are both using the same RIP version? (1 or 2)   What does the config look like on both for RIP?

Gary

Can we see a running-config of the cisco router please? do you have any ACL's on the E 1/1 Interface?
As your know the router knows about network 208.186.111.0 and so I would suggest maybe something is blocking the ICMP echo request.

R    208.186.111.0/24 [120/1] via 70.97.76.250, 00:00:20, Ethernet1/1

However having said that, Cisco describes the "Destination Network Unreachable" message as a router having no match in its routing table for the packets destination. This  might suggest the Siemens se5940 router does not have a route entry for the f0/0 - 70.97.76.1/26 on the Cisco router (it doesent know where to send the packet back). You may have a mismatch of RIP versions.

Hi,   Here are some addtional details:

1.   The are both running RIP2,   I have also tried v1 as well.

2.   Tracert 1  (Se5940 connected PC   to   Cisco route)
          Tracing route to 70.97.76.1 over a maximum of 30 hops
               1  <1 ms  <1 ms <1 ms  208.186.111.1
               2  70.97.76.249  reports: Destination net unreachable.


3.   Tracert 2  (Cisco connected PC to Se5940 router )
          Tracing route to 208.186.111.1 over a maximum of 30 hops
               1     2 ms     3 ms     3 ms  70.97.76.1
               2     *        *        *     Request timed out.
               3     *        *        *     Request timed out.

4.  No access-lists on the Cisco

5.  No access lists on the Se5940

6.  Routing table on Se5940 :

    IP route   /  Mask   --> Gateway         Interface    Hops Flags

0.0.0.0        /00000000 --> 70.97.76.249    ETHERNET/0   1 NW FW PRM RP1 RP2
70.97.76.0     /ffffffc0 --> 70.97.76.249    ETHERNET/0   2 NW FW RP2
70.97.76.248   /fffffffc --> 0.0.0.0         ETHERNET/0   1 NW FW DIR PRM RP2
208.186.111.0  /ffffff00 --> 0.0.0.0         ETHERNET/0:1 1 NW FW DIR PRM RP1 RP2
208.186.111.1  /ffffffff --> 0.0.0.0         ETHERNET/0:1 0 ME

7.   Cisco config :

I think that the Se5940 is not a problem here,   as the packets from it's connected PC get all the way to
the Cisco before being stopped,  and a 'net unreachable' message is issued by the cisco on 70.97.76.249..

When the cisco connected PC  tries to ping the Se5940 (208.186.111.1)  it simply gets a timeout...

 

You're putting the wrong network into RIP. 70.0.0.0 means 70.0.0.0-70.0.0.255, not the whole class A. Try adding the network statement "network 70.97.76.0" to rip.

Routing protocols will not send advertisements for a subnet unless there is a valid subnet that matches the network statement on the router.

We did enter 'network 70.97.76.0',   however when you save the config and then lookback it
it the router shows ' network 70.0.0.0'   it worked that out all by itself..    To check then i just
did it again,  here are the commands I type (first to remove the bad entry and then to put what
you suggest in) :

SPR01-R1#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
SPR01-R1(config)#router rip
SPR01-R1(config-router)#no network 70.0.0.0
SPR01-R1(config-router)#network 70.97.76.0
SPR01-R1(config-router)#exit
SPR01-R1(config)#exit
SPR01-R1#wr
Building configuration...
[OK]
SPR01-R1#sh conf

!
router rip
 version 2
 redistribute static
 network 70.0.0.0


It keeps on entering the line as 70.0.0.0,  no matter what I type.

One other thing to try is  the "debug ip icmp" on the router.

You can read about it here.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps5187/products_command_reference_chapter09186a008017d00c.html#wp1017595

I should give some info on how the router is handling icmp packets.  It sure looks like something is not reponding correctly, although I don't see anything in the router config that would be blocking it.
