did you configure subinterfaces on your 2801?

Note: from the router on a stick example:

Now, in order for the two hosts to communicate between them, they must set as default gateway the IP address of the corresponding router subinterface address (e.g for host in VLAN 10 the gateway must be 10.10.10.2 and for host in VLAN 20 the gateway must be 20.20.20.2).

Next: from the example:(config)# interface FastEthernet1/0/1
(config-if)# description trunk-to-router-on-a-stick
(config-if)# switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
(config-if)# exit

Note: what's probably happening is that the switchports are in dynamic mode so you can't make a dynamic port a trunk port.

so you have the following imput:
config# int fastethernet 0/X/X [the port you wish to make a trunk port]
config-int# switchport mode access
config-int# switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
config-int# switchport mode trunk
ctl+Z
config#sh run

check your config using the sh run to list each port and how they are configured.

notice these switch interfaces commands from the example:

(config)# interface FastEthernet1/0/3

typically the command is interface fastethernet 1/0 which then puts in in config mode for that interface. the additional /3 is the subinterface.

thanks, it works now

it seems that my only problem was that the 2950's port led was stuck on solid-amber which means that the port was running on high utilization, anyway I'm using now another port and it works just fine.

thanks again

Do this

by NetMan1958 · 10 years ago In reply to Cisco - inter-vlan routin ...

Run the following commands on your 2950 and post the output back here:
"show interface faxx"
where xx is the interface. For example fa0/1.
Do this for the interfaces that connect to the 2 vlans and for the interface that connects to the router. Also, go ahead and post the output from "show interface trunk".

You miss this command at the interface used in trunk mode:

by canjunior · 10 years ago In reply to Cisco - inter-vlan routin ...

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
Then you can
switchport mode trunk
