Ch9 Static Route Configuration (Packet Tracer)

Objective

The overall objective of this laboratory exercise is to configure static routes on two routers so that there is a network connection between the computers in the two LANs. This will require that the serial connection between routers be configured and enabled.

Lab Procedure and Questions

This document does not need to be submitted at any time, but I suggest you answer all questions below and in detail and for your future reference. I also suggest you include prompts for all commands listed.

NOTE: You may follow the reference materials posted on Canvas. Please note that the video is only meant for reference, not a follow along. Meaning it may or may not cover everything on this lab and may be out of order. Also the lab numberame reference may be different.

Save any switch or router configurations (copy run start command) often and at completion of your lab.

TASKS:

Configure a static route to the adjacent LAN, LAN1 (with R1, SW1, and PC1) to LAN2 (with R2, SW2, and PC2). Use default clock rate.

Create provided LAN on Cisco Packet Tracer. Pay close attention to connections shown on topogoy, please follow them.

Go to Preferences under the Options menu of Packet Tracer. Ensure that the following are selected:

Show Device Model Names

Show Device Name Labels

Always Show Port Labels

Show Link Lights

Use the PlaceNote feature of the Cisco Packet Tracer software to label all devices (on topology), IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway Address and MAC address (as appropriate, use table 1).

Configure and name PC1 and PC2.

Use Table 1 for addressing.

Change the names of the PCs to those labeled on the topology. This can be done through the Global Settings under the Config tab (of each PC).

For the two switches, configure the following:

Hostname (to match topology)

Console password to be password1

Enable secret to be password2

vty 0-4 password to be password3

We are done with switch configurations for the rest of the lab (unless you need to troubleshoot, of course).

For the two routers, configure the following:

Hostname (to match topology)

IP addresses (to match Table 1). Enable the interfaces.

Console password to be password1

Enable secret to be password2

vty password to be password3

Configure static routes from the R1 router to the R2 router. Provide the complete command(s) that were used.

Use two commands to verify that the routes are configured as expected. List the commands used. Provide and explain the information on one of the two.

Configure static routes from the R2 router to the R1 router. Provide the complete command(s) that were used.

Verify internetwork connectivity.

What clock rate is the serial network using? How did you verify this?

Once appropriate connectivity is present, use the proper command to trace the route from a PC in LAN1 to a host in LAN2. Your trace should pass through two routers. List the command used and record the trace information. Please explain what you see and provide a screenshot of your traceroute.
