Router Task 1 :
1. Topic
Make static configuration of router.
2. Apparatus
PCs
Wires
Routers (1841)
Switch(2950T-24)
3. Procedure
1. Add Routers, Switch, PCs to the Topology
Drag and drop two routers i.e., Router 1841 from the "Router ”.
Drag and drop two switches i.e., Switch 2950-24 from the "Switches".
Drag and drop two PCs from the "End Devices". Connect each PC to its
respective switch.
2. Cable Connections
Connect each pc to respective switch and then switch to respective routers
using cross-over wire. Click and drag from one device's port to another to
create the connections.
3. Configure IP Addresses on Routers
Click on a router to select it.
Go to the "Config" tab.
Under "FastEthernet0/0" , click the "Edit" button to configure the IP
address. Assign an IP address like 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask
of 255.255.255.0
Repeat the same process for the second router, giving it an IP address
like 192.168.2.1 with the same subnet mask.
4. Configure IP Addresses on PCs
Click on a PC to select it.
Go to the "Config" tab in the PC's properties panel.
Under "FastEthernet0" (or similar), click the "Edit" button to configure the
IP address. Assign an IP address in the same subnet as the router it's
connected to. For example, for the PC1 connected to Router 1, use
192.168.1.2 with the same subnet mask (255.255.255.0) and PC2
connected to Router 1, use 192.168.1.3 with the same subnet mask
(255.255.255.0).
Repeat the same process for the other PCs, giving them IP addresses in
their respective subnets.
5. Configure Static Routes on Routers
Click on the first router to select it.
Go to the "Config" tab in the router's properties panel.
Under "Routing," click on "Static" to access the static routing configuration.
Click the "Add" button to create a new static route.
In the "Destination Network" field, enter the network address you want
to reach through this static route. For example, if you're configuring the
first router, which is connected to the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet, and you
want to reach the 192.168.2.0/24 subnet via Router 2, enter
"192.168.2.0."
In the "Subnet Mask" field, enter the subnet mask for the
destination network, which is "255.255.255.0" for a Class C
network.
In the "Next Hop IP Address" field, enter the IP address of the PC
connected to the other router. For example, for Router 1, enter the
IP address of the connected Router 2 (e.g., 192.168.3.3).
Click "OK" to add the static route.
Repeat the same process for the second router.
Click on the second router to select it.
Go to the "Config" tab.
Under "Routing," click on "Static."
Click the "Add" button to create a new static route.
Enter the destination network, subnet mask, and the IP address of the
connected to router (e.g., 192.168.2.0, 255.255.255.0, and 192.168.3.2
for Router 2)

5. Working
From the above toolbar use “ADD SIMPLE PACKET”.
Select source of packet.
Select destination of packet.
In the down right corner, we will see progress window which will show “successful”
after we add destination of packet.
After successful configuration click on simulation button.
It will simulate a packet going from source to destination.
6. Conclusion
After simulating, we can see how PCs of router0 of one network communicate with PCs
of router1 of another network. Soo our static configuration of routers is successful. We
can also see the progress of sending and receiving packets between source and
destination by using “PING” on command prompt of source.
