A Step by Step Mastering Static Routing in Cisco PacketTracer

Continuing the discussion of basic configuration cisco and ip cisco, now we discuss how to do static routing in cisco packettracker.

Before starting this discussion, we must know what the definition of routing is.

Definition of Routing

Routing in my opinion is a way for different routers to communicate with each other. Meanwhile, according to wikipedia routing is a process for forwarding network packets from one network to another through an inter-network (internetwork).

I will exemplify static routing on routers two and one in the image or you can download it here.. If so, we continue how to do static routing in Cisco packettracker.

Router one static routing:

 R1(config)#ip route 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.255 12.12.12.2  -> loopback router two
 R1(config)#ip route 13.13.13.0 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.2  -> public ip router two to three
 R1(config)#ip route 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.2  -> ip local router two
 R1(config)#ip route 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.2  -> ip local router three

Router two static routing :

              Neighbor's local ip and nearest neighbor's public ip            

Router(config)#ip route 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 12.12.12.1 -> loopback router one
 Router(config)# ip route 3.3.3.3 255.255.255.255 13.13.13.1  -> loopback router three
 Router(config)#ip route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 12.12.12.1  -> ip local router one
 Router(config)#ip route 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0 13.13.13.1  -> ip local router three

 note : green is the public ip of router two

Now please try on the third router with the above method allowing you to do static routing on Cisco devices.
