hi josh, thanks for this tutorial however i have some questions…im a newbie on networking and i’m having trouble with vlans…on your video @ 5:30 the prompt displays

r1#show run int f0/0
Building configuration…

Current configuration : 83 bytes
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
no ip address
shutdown
duplex auto
speed auto

end

while on my prompt, it showed:
R1#show run int f0/0
Building configuration…

Current configuration : 33 bytes
!
interface FastEthernet0/0
end

i just followed your process step by step.
i am using c3640-jk9s-mz.124-16.bin btw.

where do you think is my problem? and how can i solve this?

just a follow up question, whenever i make a subinterface after the step above here is what my prompt shows:

R1#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R1(config)#int f0/0
R1(config-if)#no shut
R1(config-if)#int f0/0.10
^
% Invalid input detected at ‘^’ marker.

since i am having trouble with these, now i’m stuck.

I just want to 2nd RBNetEng’s point.

I banged my head all day trying to figure out why I couldn’t ping across VLANs (like #67.)

“no ip routing” on the “PCs” did the trick.

Not sure if I missed it in the tutorial vid or not.

And thanks a ton for the vid, in 1.5 days I feel well up to speed w/ using GNS to implement labs.

Great job putting this tutorial together. As a tip to others, if you want to use routers to simulate PCs, as is done in this tutorial, I suggest turning off ip routing on the ‘pc’ (using the no ip routing command) and then using the ‘ip default-gateway’ command to point the ‘pc’ to the router. This will more closely simulate how you configure a normal PC.
