HW2 – Router Configuration - IPv4 Static Routing and Default Routes
A router uses a routing table to determine where to send packets. The routing table contains a set of routes that describe which gateway or interface the router uses to reach a specified network. Initially, the routing table contains only directly connected networks. To communicate with distant networks, routes must be specified and added to the routing table.
In this lab, you will manually configure a static route to a specified distant network based on a next-hop IP address or exit interface. You will also configure a static default route. A default route is a type of static route that specifies a gateway to use when the routing table does not contain a path for the destination network.

Addressing Table
In Part 2, you will configure basic settings, such as the interface IP addresses, device access. You will verify LAN connectivity and identify routes listed in the routing tables for R1 and R3.
From PC-A, is it possible to ping the default gateway? __________
From PC-C, is it possible to ping the default gateway? __________
From R1, is it possible to ping the S0/0/0 interface of R3? __________
If the answer is no to any of these questions, troubleshoot the configurations and correct the error.
From PC-A, is it possible to ping PC-C? __________
From PC-A, is it possible to ping Lo0? __________
From PC-A, is it possible to ping Lo1? __________
Were these pings successful? Why or why not?
Check the status of the interfaces on R1 with the show ip interface brief command.
How many interfaces are activated on R1? __________
How many interfaces are activated on R3? __________
What networks are present in the Addressing Table of this lab, but not in the routing table for R1?

Why are all the networks not in the routing tables for each of the routers?
Configure Static Routes
In Part 3, you will employ multiple ways to implement static and default routes, you will confirm that the routes have been added to the routing tables of R1 and R3, and you will verify connectivity based on the introduced routes.
With a recursive static route, the next-hop IP address is specified. Because only the next-hop IP is specified, the router must perform multiple lookups in the routing table before forwarding packets. To configure recursive static routes, use the following syntax:
Router(config)# ip route network-address subnet-mask ip-address
On the R1 router, configure a static route to the 192.168.1.0 network using the IP address of the Serial 0/0/0 interface of R3 as the next-hop address. Write the command you used in the space provided.
View the routing table to verify the new static route entry. Include a screeshot
