Hello, Have 2 routers connected back-to-back via 2 serials with ppp encap and ppp multilink cmds. configed on both. This creates a virtual intf. Virtual-Access 1. I can ping to networks on both routers via this virtual intf. but I cannot ping the serial ip's itself. Is this how this is supposed to work? I mean, how come I cannot ping the serial ip when this very same serial intf. gets me to networks on that router? Thank you.
Output: Central#ping 20.20.20.1 --------> netw. on the other router Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 20.20.20.1, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!!
