Hi ,
The topology we have created is typically as what you said.
(192.168.1.229)
(192.168.1.243)
C1<------------>
R1<--------------->R2<------------------>R3<----------->C2
(192.168.1.75) (192.168.1.45) (192.168.1.1)
On all the routers the following has been done.
Hna4 {
192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
}
But still the clients cant ping each other.
