Experiment: Configure network using Static Routing Implementation

Aim: To configure routers for Internetworking using static routing

Learning objectives: To configure a network consisting of three routers

using static routing technique.

Outcomes: After completion of the experiment, students’ will be able – To

understand the configuration router for routing.

Software used: Cisco Packet Tracer

Network Diagram

Procedure
⮚ Firstly, a router is placed on the screen.

⮚ A switch is connected to the router using a copper straight-through

cable.

⮚ The cable is connected from Ethernet port of router to Ethernet port of

switch.
⮚ Two PCs are connected with the switch using same copper straight-
through wire.

⮚ The PCs are connected to the router through the switch.

⮚ Now a network consisting of one router, one switch and two PCs is
formed.

⮚ The IP address of the router for the network is given as 192.168.10.1

⮚ The IP address of the two PCs are 192.168.10.2 and 192.168.10.3

respectively.

⮚ Now, this network of router, switch and two PCs is repeated two more
times.

⮚ The second network’s router’s IP address is 192.168.20.1 and that of

the PCs is 192.168.20.2 and 192.168.20.3

⮚ The IP address of router in third network is 192.168.30.1 and that of

the PCs is 192.168.30.2 and 192.168.30.3

⮚ The three routers are connected with each other using the fibre optic
cable.

⮚ Router 1 is given IP address 172.16.10.1 for the connection with

Router 2.

⮚ Router 2 has IP address 172.16.10.2 for connection with Router 1.

⮚ Router 2 is also connected with router 3 using a fiber optic cable.

 ⮚ The IP addresses for Router 2 and Router 3 are 172.16.20.1 and
172.16.20.2 respectively.

⮚ Now, the complete network of three routers is to be statically routed.

⮚ For this, we go in the router configuration, in static routing.

⮚ Here, we add the network addresses and the next hop addresses.

⮚ For router 1 following are the links added in the static routing table :
1. 192.168.20.0 via 172.16.10.2

⮚ 172.16.10.0 via 172.16.10.2 192.168.30.0 via 172.16.10.2

172.16.20.0 via 172.16.10.2

⮚ For router 2 following are the links added in the static routing table :
1. 192.168.10.0 via 172.16.10.1
2. 172.16.10.0 via 172.16.10.1
3. 192.168.30.0 via 172.16.20.2
4. 172.16.20.0 via 172.16.20.2

⮚ For router 3 following are the links added in the static routing table :
1. 192.168.10.0 via 172.16.20.1
2. 172.16.20.0 via 172.16.20.1
3. 192.168.20.0 via 172.16.20.1
4. 172.168.10.0 via 172.16.20.1

⮚ After these static routes are defined, any computer from any network
from the three is pinged from any other computer.

⮚ Each computer successfully connects with every other PC in the

network.

Results: PC 192.168.10.2 to PC 192.168.10.3

Conclusion:-

Static Routing is a routing mechanism that is handled by the Internet Protocol (IP)

and that depends on manually configured routing tables. Static routers are
generally used in smaller networks that contain only a couple of routers or when
security is an issue. Each static router must be configured and maintained
separately because static routers do not exchange routing information with each
other.
 Fig: Static Routing

Static routers are more difficult to administer than dynamic routers, but they can be
more secure because the administrator controls the configuration of the router. This
prevents the static routers to be misused by the other individuals.
