How to Configure a Simple Static Routing in Packet Tracer

 How to configure a simple static routing in packet tracer using a simple topology with two routers

here we go


Steps:

Step 1:First Create a topology like this

you will get a red light first this is configured topology

Step 2: Configure ip address to routers go to global configuration mode in R1 and R2 configure connected interfaces

In Router 1

Interface Fastethernet0/0 in global configuration mode


R1(config)#interface fastethernet 0/0
R1(config-if)#ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
R1(config-if)#no shutdown
R1(config-if)#exit

Interface Serial 2/0

R1(config)#interface serial 2/0

R1(config-if)#ip address 20.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

R1(config-if)#clock rate 64000

R1(config-if)#encapsulation ppp

R1(config-if)#no shutdown

R1(config-if)#exit

In Router 2

Interface Fastethernet 0/0

R2(config)#interface fastethernet 0/0

R2(config-if)#ip address 30.0.0.1 255.0.0.0

R2(config-if)#no shutdown

R2(config-if)#exit

Interface Serial 2/0

R2(config)#interface serial 2/0

R2(config-if)#ip address 20.0.0.2 255.0.0.0

R2(config-if)#encapsulation ppp

R2(config-if)#no shutdown

R2(config-if)#exit

Step 3 : Assign ip address for both Pc's with appropriate ip and subnetmask and default gateway How to Configure IP address ,Default gateway to PC ?

Check Routing table by giving this command,It has only directly connected network.
R1#show ip route

Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
       i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
       * - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
       P - periodic downloaded static route

Gateway of last resort is not set

C    10.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0
C    20.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial2/0

Step 4: Now configure both router with static route

By default, Routers Know only directed connected networks here Router 1 know only 10.0.0.0 and 20.0.0.0 it doesn't know the 30.0.0.0 like this R2 doesn't know about 10.0.0.0.So We are going to add Static route to this both router

  R1(config)#ip route Destination Network| Destination N/W SubnetMask |Next Hop Address

In Router R1,Just give this command,In this case Destination is 30.0.0.0 and its subnet mask is 255.0.0.0 next hop address is 20.0.0.2


R1(config)#ip route 30.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 20.0.0.2


In Router R2


R2(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 20.0.0.1

Thats it!!..Now both routers know all networks,check by ping ip address of host

• Check Routing table by giving this command,

R1#show ip route
Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP
       D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
       N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2
       E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP
       i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, ia - IS-IS inter area
       * - candidate default, U - per-user static route, o - ODR
       P - periodic downloaded static route

Gateway of last resort is not set

C    10.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0
C    20.0.0.0/8 is directly connected, Serial2/0
S    30.0.0.0/8 [1/0] via 20.0.0.2


Step 5:Double click PC move to desktop then command prompt give the command ping 30.0.0.10 in PC 0 you will get reply from 30.0.0.10 like this
