Hello Jonathan Jonathan, I'm so glad our messages were helpful. Usually pinging capablity is symmetrical. That is, if Router A can ping Router B, then Router B can ping Router A. Sending a ping reply requires the same "resources" and configuration as sending a ping. So, when you ping from Router B to Router A, if Router A can send a ping reply, it would be strange indeed if it can't send a ping, and vice versa. The exception to this, of course, is access lists. They could make it work assymetrically. There may be other exceptions too that I'm just not thinking of... So, I guess I'm questioning what you're telling us is happening. That's kind of rude, but I'm in a bit of a rush. :-) Now, if you said you can't ping your own interface, that's a very common problem with new Frame Relay configs. You won't be able to ping your own interface unless you have a map statement for your own address. Gotta run. Nice talking to you. Good luck with your lab!
