    This document discusses configuring static routes on Cisco routers. It provides instructions on: 1) Connecting a network with 3 routers and configuring IP addresses and static routes on each router to reach all connected networks. 2) Verifying the static routes using the "show ip route" command. 3) The default administrative distance of static routes is 1, and the "ip route" command can modify this distance. 4) Creating a loopback interface on R3 with IP 10.1.0.1/16 and adding static routes on R1 and R2 to reach this new interface, then verifying with ping.

    Configuring static routes on Cisco routers

    Figure 5.1: Scenario for static routes


    THEORY
    Routed & Routing Protocols

    • A Routed Protocol is a protocol by which data can be routed. Routed protocols are
    IP, AppleTalk, and IPX. In this kind of protocols we require an addressing scheme and
    sub netting. Addressing scheme will be used to determine the network to which a host
    belongs and to identifying that host on that particular network. All hosts on an
    internetwork use the services of a routed protocol.
    • A Routing Protocol is different and is only used between routers. It makes possible
    for routers to build and maintain routing tables. There are three classes of routing
    protocols-
    1) Distance Vector,
    2) Link State,
    3) Hybrid

    Static & Dynamic Routing

    The simplest method to route packets on a network is static routes. Although dynamic routing
    protocols are flexible and adjust to network changes, they do have associated network traffic
    which competes for network bandwidth with the user data traffic.

    Configuring Static Routes

    Static routes specify a fixed route for a certain destination network. They need to be
    configured on any router that needs to reach a network that it is not directly connected to. The
    IOS command used to configure static routes is ip route. The syntax is:

    ip route destination-address subnet-mask {ip-address | outgoing-interface} [distance] [tag


    tag] [permanent]

    where:

     destination-address is the destination address prefix for the network that we would
    like the router to reach
     subnet-mask is the subnet mask to be used on the address prefix to match for
    destination addresses. Multiple networks may be combined such that the destination-
    address and subnet-mask combination matches all hosts on those networks.
     ip-address specifies what ip address to forward a packet to if an IP packet arrives with
    a destination address that matches the destination-address subnet-mask pair specified
    in this command.
     Alternatively outgoing-interface specifies which interface the packet should be sent
    out of. Adding a static route to an Ethernet or other broadcast interface (for example,
    ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Ethernet 1/2) will cause the route to be
    inserted into the routing table only when the interface is up. This configuration is not
    generally recommended. When the next hop of a static route points to an interface, the
    router considers each of the hosts within the range of the route to be directly connected
    through that interface, and therefore it will send ARP requests to any destination
    addresses that route through the static route.
     distance is the optional administrative distance value for the route. If unspecified the
    default value is 1.
     tag value can be used as a "match" value for controlling redistribution via route maps.
     permanenet specifies that the route will not be removed even if the interface shuts
    down.

    DTE/DCE
    DCE and DTE are the interfaces. The DCE-DTE connection between routers is referred to as
    a null serial cable DCE(data communication equipment) and DTE (Data terminal equipment).
    DCE is located at the service provider end while the DTE is attached device.

    The services that are given to the DTE is often accessed via modems or channel service
    unit/data service unit(CSU/DSU). DCE provides clocking and DTE receives the clock

    PROCEDURE
    1. Connect the network as shown in the network diagram.

    2. Configure appropriate ip addresses and clock rates(if needed) on the router interfaces
    as specified in the network diagram.

    3. For R1, enter the following static routes


    ip route 172.16.20.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.2
    ip route 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.2

    4. On R2 enter:
    ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1
    ip route 172.16.20.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.2

    5. On R3 enter:

    ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.1


    ip route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.1

    6. After that verify the static routes by entering the following commands in the
    privilege mode:

    router# sh ip route

    EXERCISES
    1. Run the command show IP route and write its output.

    1. What is the default administrative distance of static route? Write the IP route command to
    modify the same.

    3. Create a loop back interface on R3 and assign an IP address 10.1.0.1 /16 to it. Now add
    static routes to each of the other routers to reach this interface. Verify your work by pinging
    the newly created interface from routers R1 and R2 respectively.
