Static Routing
Configuration for
CCNA Students
By
Eng. Abeer Hosni
Lab1 (IPV4 static routing)
Objectives:
• Configure the network shown above so that PC1 can reach all other PCs in the
network using static routing.
• If you configure R1 to use its exit interface, figure out why this is not the
preferred way.
Configuration:
PC1> ip 10.0.0.100 255.255.255.0 10.0.0.1
PC2> ip 12.0.0.100 255.255.255.0 12.0.0.2
PC3> ip 12.0.0.101 255.255.255.0 12.0.0.2
PC4> ip 12.0.0.102 255.255.255.0 12.0.0.2
R1(config)#int f0/0
R1(config-if)#ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
R1(config-if)#no shutdown
R1(config)#int f0/0
R1(config-if)#int f1/0
R1(config-if)#ip address 11.0.0.1 255.255.255.0
R1(config-if)#no shutdown
R2(config)#int f0/0
R2(config-if)#ip address 11.0.0.2 255.255.255.0
R2(config-if)#no shutdown
R2(config-if)#int f1/0
R2(config-if)#ip address 12.0.0.2 255.255.255.0
R2(config-if)#no shutdown
The network is not yet pingable since we haven’t configured static routing yet.
PC1> ping 12.0.0.100
*10.0.0.1 icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=109.127 ms (ICMP type:3, code:1, Destination host unreachable)
*10.0.0.1 icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=10.226 ms (ICMP type:3, code:1, Destination host unreachable)
*10.0.0.1 icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=10.247 ms (ICMP type:3, code:1, Destination host unreachable)
*10.0.0.1 icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=11.181 ms (ICMP type:3, code:1, Destination host unreachable)
*10.0.0.1 icmp_seq=5 ttl=255 time=9.350 ms (ICMP type:3, code:1, Destination host unreachable)
Since this is a broadcast network, in IPv4 it’s recommended to use next hop IP address instead of the
router exit interface.
R1(config)#ip route 12.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 11.0.0.2
The network is still not pingable since R2 doesn’t have a route back to the 10.0.0.0/24 network.
PC1> ping 12.0.0.100
12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=1 timeout 12.0.0.100
icmp_seq=2 timeout 12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=3
timeout 12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=4 timeout
12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=5 timeout
R2(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 11.0.0.1 Now the
network should be pingable.
PC1> ping 12.0.0.100
12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=1 timeout
12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=2 timeout
84 bytes from 12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=3 ttl=62 time=44.190 ms
84 bytes from 12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=4 ttl=62 time=43.210 ms
84 bytes from 12.0.0.100 icmp_seq=5 ttl=62 time=32.269 ms
Verification:

L 12.0.0.2/32 is directly connected, FastEthernet1/0
After pinging PC2, PC3 and PC4:
R1#show arp
Protocol Address Age (min) Hardware Addr Type Interface
Internet 10.0.0.1 - ca01.0200.0000 ARPA FastEthernet0/0
Internet 10.0.0.100 1 0050.7966.6800 ARPA FastEthernet0/0

Internet 11.0.0.2 7 ca02.0718.0000 ARPA FastEthernet1/0
If we configure R1 to use its exit interface instead of next hop IP address:
R1(config)#no ip route 12.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 11.0.0.2
R1(config)#ip route 12.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 f1/0
After pinging PC2, PC3 and PC4:
R1#show arp
Protocol Address Age (min) Hardware Addr Type Interface
Internet 10.0.0.1 - ca01.0200.0000 ARPA FastEthernet0/0
Internet 10.0.0.100 0 0050.7966.6800 ARPA FastEthernet0/0

12.0.0.102 0 ca02.0718.0000 ARPA FastEthernet1/0
R1 will ARP for each destination IP we want to reach using the next hop MAC address.
R2#show ip int f0/0 | include Proxy
Proxy ARP is enabled
Local Proxy ARP is disabled
That’s why it’s recommended in IPV4 broadcast networks to use next hop IP address to not increase
the size of the ARP cache table.
Lab2 (IPV4 Default Route)
Objective:
Add loopback interfaces to R2, and then configure R1 to reach those interfaces in only one step.
Configuration:
R2(config)#int loopback 0
R2(config-if)#ip address 13.0.0.2 255.255.255.0
R2(config-if)#int loopback 1
R2(config-if)#ip address 14.0.0.2 255.255.255.0

Lab4 (IPV4 Floating Static Route)
Objective:
Configure R1 to reach the 2.2.2.2/32 network using its f1/0 interface. If it is down, R1 should use its
f0/0 interface to reach the network until the f1/0 interface is up again. Use static route configuration
to accomplish that.
