Objectives
Part 1: Set Up the Topology and Initialize Devices
Part 2: Configure Basic Device Settings and Verify Connectivity

Part 3: Configure Static Routes


Configure a recursive static route.
Configure a directly connected static route.
Configure and remove static routes.
Part 4: Configure and Verify a Default Route

Background / Scenario
A router uses a routing table to determine where to send packets. The routing table
contains a set of routes that describe which gateway or interface the router uses to
reach a specified network. Initially, the routing table contains only directly connected
networks. To communicate with distant networks, routes must be specified and added to
the routing table.
In this lab, you will manually configure a static route to a specified distant network
based on a next-hop IP address or exit interface. You will also configure a static default
route. A default route is a type of static route that specifies a gateway to use when the
routing table does not contain a path for the destination network.
Note: The routers used with CCNA hands-on labs are Cisco 1941 Integrated Services
Routers (ISRs) with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(4)M3 (universalk9 image). The switches
used are Cisco Catalyst 2960s with Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2) (lanbasek9 image).
Other routers, switches, and Cisco IOS versions can be used. Depending on the model
and Cisco IOS version, the commands available and output produced might vary from
what is shown in the labs. Refer to the Router Interface Summary Table at the end of
this lab for the correct interface identifiers.

Required Resources
2 Routers (Cisco 1941 with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(4)M3 universal image or
comparable)
2 Switches (Cisco 2960 with Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2) lanbasek9 image or
comparable)
2 PCs (Windows 7, Vista, or XP with terminal emulation program)
Console cables to configure the Cisco IOS devices via the console ports
Ethernet cables as shown in the topology
Part 1: Set Up the Topology and Initialize Devices
Step 1: Cable the network as shown in the topology.

Step 2: Initialize router and switch.

Part 2: Configure Basic Device Settings and Verify Connectivity


In Part 2, you will configure basic settings, such as the interface IP addresses, device
access, and passwords. You will verify LAN connectivity and identify routes listed in the
routing tables for R1 and R2.

Step 1: Configure the PC interfaces.

Step 2: Configure basic settings on the routers.


a. Configure device names, as shown in the Topology and Addressing Table.
b. Disable DNS lookup using command:
R1(config)#no ip domain-lookup

c. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file using command:
R1#copy running-config startup-config
Step 3: Configure IP settings on the routers.
a. Configure the R1 and R2 interfaces with IP addresses according to the Addressing
Table.

Step 4: Verify connectivity of the LANs.


a. Test connectivity by pinging from each PC to the default gateway that has been
configured for that host.
From PC-A, is it possible to ping the default gateway? From PC-B, is it possible to ping
the default gateway?

b. Test connectivity by pinging between the directly connected routers.


From R1, is it possible to ping the GigabitEthernet0/0 interface of R2?
If the answer is no to any of these questions, troubleshoot the configurations and
correct the error.

c. Test connectivity between devices that are not directly connected.


From PC-A, is it possible to ping PC-B? From PC-A, is it possible to ping R2?
Were these pings successful? Why or why not?
Ans:

Step 5: Gather information.


a. Check the status of the interfaces on R1 with the show ip interface brief
command.
How many interfaces are activated on R1?
b. Check the status of the interfaces on R2.
How many interfaces are activated on R2?

c. View the routing table information for R1 using the show ip route command.
What networks are present in the Addressing Table of this lab, but not in the routing
table for R1?
d. View the routing table information for R2.
What networks are present in the Addressing Table in this lab, but not in the routing
table for R2?

Part 3: Configure Static Routes


In Part 3, you will employ multiple ways to implement static and default routes, you will
confirm that the routes have been added to the routing tables of R1 and R2, and you will
verify connectivity based on the introduced routes.

Step 1: Configure a Recursive Static Route.


With a recursive static route, the next-hop IP address is specified. Because only the
next-hop IP is specified, the router must perform multiple lookups in the routing table
before forwarding packets. To configure recursive static routes, use the following syntax:
Router(config)# ip route DestinationNetworkAddress subnet-mask
next-hop-ip-address
a. On the R1 router, configure a static route to the 192.168.11.0 network using the IP
address of the GigabitEthernet 0/0 interface of R2 as the next-hop address. Write the
command you used in the space provided.
b. View the routing table to verify the new static route entry.
How is this new route listed in the routing table?

From host PC-A, is it possible to ping the host PC-B?


These pings should fail. If the recursive static route is correctly configured, the ping arrives
at PC-B. PC-B sends a ping reply back to PC-A. However, the ping reply is discarded at
R2 because R2 does not have a return route to the 192.168.10.0 network in the routing
table.

Step 2: Configure a directly connected static route.


With a directly connected static route, the exit-interface parameter is specified, which
allows the router to resolve a forwarding decision in one lookup. A directly connected
static route is typically used with a point-to- point serial interface. To configure directly
connected static routes with an exit interface specified, use the following syntax:
Router(config)# ip route Destination-network-address subnet-mask
exit-intf
a. On the R2 router, configure a static route to the 192.168.10.0 network using
GigabitEthernet 0/0 as the exit interface.
Write the command you used in the space provided.
Write Command here:
b. View the routing table of R2 to verify the new static route entry.
How is this new route listed in the routing table?

c. From host PC-A, is it possible to ping the host PC-B?


Now Ping PC-B from PC-A
Part 4: Configure and Verify a Default Route

In Part 4, you will implement a default route, confirm that the route has been added to
the routing table, and verify connectivity based on the introduced route.
A default route identifies the gateway to which the router sends all IP packets for which it
does not have a learned or static route. A default static route is a static route with 0.0.0.0
as the destination IP address and subnet mask. This is commonly referred to as a “quad
zero” route.
In a default route, either the next-hop IP address or exit interface can be specified. To
configure a default static route, use the following syntax:
Router(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 {ip-address or exit-
intf}
a. Configure the R1 router with a default route using the exit interface of S0/0/1. Write
the command you used in the space provided.

b. View the routing table to verify the new static route entry.
How is this new route listed in the routing table?
What is the Gateway of last resort?
