Lab Tasks
Task 1: Congure the Routers
This task involves conguring the three routers so that adjacent devices located in the same subnets can
communicate.
1.
Congure Router1, Router2, and Router4 with the appropriate host names, IP addresses, and subnet
masks; refer to the IP Addresses table. Enable the interfaces. Congure a clock rate of 64 Kbps on the
Serial 0/0 interface of Router1. A clock rate must be congured on Router1 because it is the DCE end of
the link to Router4.
2.
On Router1, verify that you can ping the directly connected neighbors.
3.
On Router4, attempt to ping the FastEthernet 0/0 interface on Router2. The ping should not be successful.
4.
On Router2, attempt to ping the Serial 0/0 interface on Router4. The ping should not be successful.
5.
On Router2, congure a static IP route to the 12.5.10.0 subnet. You should use the IP address of Router1s
FastEthernet 0/0 interface as the gateway because any trafc destined to the 12.5.10.0 subnet can get
there through Router1. Static routes are congured using the destination network address, destination
subnet mask, and IP address of the closest port of the forwarding router as shown in the ip route
command syntax displayed below:
2.
On Router2, attempt to ping Router1s FastEthernet 0/0 interface, Router1s Serial 0/0 interface, and
Router4s Serial 0/0 interface. Why is the ping to Router4s Serial 0/0 interface (12.5.10.2) unsuccessful?
____________________________________________________________________________________
3.
On Router4, congure a static IP route to the 10.1.1.0 subnet. You should use the IP address of Router1s
Serial 0/0 interface as the gateway because any trafc destined to the 10.1.1.0 subnet can get there
through Router1.
4.
On Router4, attempt to ping Router1s FastEthernet 0/0 interface, Router1s Serial 0/0 interface, and
Router2s FastEthernet 0/0 interface. Are all pings successful? __________________________________
5.
Issue the show ip route command on Router4 to verify that a route exists to the 10.1.1.0 subnet. Sample
output is shown below:
6.
Issue the show ip route command on Router2 to verify that a route exists to the 12.5.10.0 subnet. Sample
output is shown below:
Lab Solutions
Task 1: Congure the Routers
1.
No solution is required.
2.
No solution is required.
3.
No solution is required.
4.
No solution is required.
5.
The pings from Router4 to Router2 and from Router2 to Router4 fail because neither device knows about
the other devices subnet; neither device has a route to the neighbor that is not directly connected.
1.
No solution is required.
2.
The ping to Router4s Serial 0/0 interface is unsuccessful because once the packet reaches Router4,
Router4 will try to send the packet back to the source address. When the packet reaches Router4, the
source address is in the 10.1.1.0 subnet, and Router4 does not know how to get to that subnet.
3.
No solution is required.
4.
Yes, all pings from Router4 to Router1s Serial 0/0 interface, Router1s FastEthernet 0/0 interface, and
Router2s FastEthernet 0/0 interface are all successful.
5.
No solution is required.
6.
No solution is required.
