Static Routing lab using packet tracer with step by step guide





Configuration of Static Routing | In this article we learn about the concept of the static routing,  what are the advantage and what are the disadvantage of the static routing and how to configure static routing .

Function of Router


Normally Router is the network device which use to establish a communication between two different networks. Router establishes communication  between two networks though is routing table.

Different types of Routing Methods


Three type of Routing method are available to route a packet from one network to other network.

  •          Static Routing
  •          Default Routing
  •          Dynamic Routing

Concept of Static Routing


It is one type of Routing Method. Routing table is not updated automatically in this routing method. We should configure static routing manually and selection the route which is basically configured by network admin.

Advantage of Static Routing


There are several advantages of static Routing.

  •          Static Routing reduces the overhead of cpu of router as routing table is not updated automatically.
  •          As static routing is basically configured by network admin manually so it is under control of network administrator.

 Disadvantage of Static Routing


There are several disadvantages of static Routing.

  •  Static routing is not suitable for large network.
  •  Any updation of routing table must be done by network admin manually.

In the above diagram we configure the static routing for three router.

Configuration of Static Routing


First we configure on router0.
Router#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#int gigabitEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shut
Router(config)#int serial 0/0/0
Router(config-if)#clock rate 64000
Router(config-if)#ip address 20.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shut

To configure static route on router0 we should execute the below command.

Router(config)#ip route 30.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 20.0.0.2
Router(config)#ip route 40.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 20.0.0.2
Router(config)#ip route 50.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 20.0.0.2

Then we configure on router1.

Router#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#int gigabitEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 30.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shu

Router(config)#int serial 0/0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 20.0.0.2 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shut

Router(config)#int serial 0/0/1
Router(config-if)#ip address 40.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shut

To configure static route on router1 we should execute the below command.

Router(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 20.0.0.1
Router(config)#ip route 50.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 40.0.0.2


Then we configure on router2.

Router#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#int gigabitEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#ip address 50.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shut

Router(config)#int serial 0/0/0
Router(config-if)#clock rate 64000
Router(config-if)#ip address 40.0.0.2 255.0.0.0
Router(config-if)#no shut

To configure static route on router2 we should execute the below command.

Router(config)#ip route 30.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 40.0.0.1
Router(config)#ip route 20.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 40.0.0.1
Router(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 40.0.0.1

 Verify of Static Routing


Before configuration of static routing when we communicate fom pc4 to pc0 we get the below output.

Packet Tracer PC Command Line 1.0
C:\>ping 10.0.0.2

Pinging 10.0.0.2 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 50.0.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 50.0.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 50.0.0.1: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 50.0.0.1: Destination host unreachable.

Ping statistics for 10.0.0.2:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss)

After configuration of static routing when we communicate fom pc4 to pc0 we get the below output.

C:\>ping 10.0.0.2

Pinging 10.0.0.2 with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.
Reply from 10.0.0.2: bytes=32 time=31ms TTL=125
Reply from 10.0.0.2: bytes=32 time=25ms TTL=125
Reply from 10.0.0.2: bytes=32 time=31ms TTL=125

Ping statistics for 10.0.0.2:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 3, Lost = 1 (25% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 25ms, Maximum = 31ms, Average = 29ms
