Configuring Floating Static Routes: Khawar Butt Ccie # 12353 (R/S, Security, SP, DC, Voice, Storage & Ccde)

The document discusses configuring floating static routes on routers to provide backup routes between networks. It provides instructions on configuring primary and backup static routes between routers R1, R2, R3 and R4 to ensure connectivity between all the networks. Administrative distances are used to control which routes are installed in the routing tables and allow backup routes to be used when primary routes fail.

Floating Static Routes
 Floating Static Routes allow you the ability to create a backup route.

 You accomplish this by manipulating the default administrative distance of the Static Route.

c
 By default, the router assigns a static route an administrative distance of 1.

 When you want to configure a backup route, you configure it with a higher administrative
distance so that it does not get inserted into the routing table unless the preferred route is
down.

 The syntax for a floating static route is :

IP Route [Destination Network] [Destination Mask] [Next Hop] [Admin. Distance]


Static Route Lab Requirements
 Let’s configure the network based on the following requirements:

• R1, R2 & R3 should have reachability to all networks in the diagram based on
shortest Next-hop. c
• Configure load balancing wherever you have equal number of hops.
• Configure a Default Route on R4 towards R3 to reach all the networks in the
diagram.

Floating Static Route
Requirements
 Let’s configure the floating static routes based on the following requirements:

• R1 should have a backup route to the 192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.3.0/24 &


192.168.4.0/24 networks. Use 5 as the
c admin distance.
• R2 should have a backup route to the 192.168.1.0/24 & 192.168.3.0/24
networks. Use 5 as the admin distance.
• R3 should have a backup route to the 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24 &
192.168.4.0/24 networks. Use 5 as the admin distance.
