Configuring and Naming Static Routes

The objective of this lab is to configure named static routes on two routers using next hop IP addresses. Static route configuration is a fundamental Cisco skill, and there are several methods to configure static routes on a router. Naming the static routes allows easy identification of what each route is used for in the router configuration. The tasks configure hostnames, VLANs, IP addresses, a static route named "LAN-ROUTE" on R2 to the 10.88.100.1/27 subnet via Fa0/0, and a static route named "WAN-ROUTE" on R2 to the 10.99.100.1/27 subnet via S0/0. Ping tests then verify the static

Configuring and Naming Static Routes

CCNA v6 Labs September 11, 2017


5 (1) vote
Lab Objective:
The objective of this lab exercise is to configure named static routes via next hop IP
addresses on interfaces connected to a switch on two routers. This lab also goes through
the validation of the configured static routes.
Lab Purpose:
Static route configuration is a fundamental skill. There are several methods to configure
static routes on a Cisco router, and each way has its pros and cons. Naming the static
routes allows you to easily identify what each static route is used for as you view the router
configuration. As a Cisco engineer, as well as in the Cisco CCNA exam, you will be
expected to know how to configure named static routes via any of the methods available in
Cisco IOS.
Certification Level:
This lab is suitable for both CCENT and CCNA certification exam preparation.
Lab Difficulty:
This lab has a difficulty rating of 5/10.
Readiness Assessment:
When you are ready for your certification exam, you should complete this lab in no more
than 15 minutes.
Lab Topology:
Please use the following topology to complete this lab exercise:

Task 1:
Configure the hostnames on R1, R2, and Sw1 as illustrated in the topology.
Task 2:
Configure Sw2 as a VTP sever and configure VLAN10 named STATIC. Assign ports
FastEthernet0/1 and FastEthernet0/2 to this VLAN. Configure the DCE interface Serial0/0 in
R1 to provide clocking to R2 at a clock speed of 768 Kbps (not required if you are using
GNS3).
Task 3:
Configure IP addresses 172.27.32.1/30 and 172.27.32.2/30 on R1 and R2 Fa0/0 interfaces,
respectively. Configure IP addresses 192.168.7.1/30 and 192.168.7.2/30 on R1 and R2
S0/0 interfaces, respectively. In addition, configure the Loopback interfaces on R1 with the
IP addresses in the topology.
Task 4:
Configure a static route named LAN-ROUTE on R2 via interface FastEthernet0/0 with a
next hop IP address of 172.27.32.1 to the 10.88.100.1/27 subnet. Configure a static route
named WAN-ROUTE on R2 via Serial0/0 with a next hop IP address of 192.168.7.1 to the
10.99.100.1/27 subnet. Verify your static route configuration.
Task 5:
Ping each Loopback interface configured on R1 from R2 to verify your static route
configuration.

Gateway of last resort is not set

172.27.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets


C 172.27.32.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0
10.0.0.0/27 is subnetted, 2 subnets
S 10.88.100.0 [1/0] via 172.27.32.1, FastEthernet0/0
S 10.99.100.0 [1/0] via 192.168.7.1, Serial0/0
192.168.7.0/30 is subnetted, 1 subnets
C 192.168.7.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0
NOTE: The names configured on the static routes do not show in the output of the show ip
route command; however, they do show in the running configuration. Naming static routes
allows you to easily identify what the configured static routes are being used for. This can
be extremely helpful in a router where you have many static routes configured. You can
simply issue the show run command and filter the output to include only statements that
contain the word route as illustrated below:
R2#show running-config | include route
ip route 10.88.100.0 255.255.255.224 Ethernet0/0 172.27.32.1 name LAN-ROUTE
ip route 10.99.100.0 255.255.255.224 Serial0/0 192.168.7.1 name WAN-ROUTE
Task 5:
For reference information on how to ping, refer to earlier labs.
