NL Exp 8

This document describes an experiment to build a network topology using Cisco Packet Tracer with two PCs, a switch, and a router. The objectives are to understand how to create the topology and configure static and dynamic routing protocols. Key points covered include the differences between static and dynamic routing, steps to set up the topology and configure IP addresses, and how to view the router's routing table. The experiment concludes with successfully implementing packet transfer within and between networks using static and dynamic routing protocols.

Practical 8

Name- Network topology with 2 PCs, switch and router in Cisco packet Tracer
Aim:- Build network topology with router and configure it for static & dynamic routing protocol using Cisco packet
tracer.
Objective: At the end of this session you should be able know how to create a network topology using CISCO packet
tracer software with different devices.
Theory:-
BASIS FOR COMPARISON STATIC ROUTING DYNAMIC ROUTING

Configuration Manual Automatic

Routing table building Routing locations are hand- Locations are dynamically
typed filled in the table.

Routes User defined Routes are updated according


to change in topology.

Routing algorithms Doesn't employ complex Uses complex routing


routing algorithms. algorithms to perform routing
operations.

Implemented in Small networks Large networks

Link failure Link failure obstructs the Link failure doesn't affect the
rerouting. rerouting.

Security Provides high security. Less secure due to sending


broadcasts and multicasts.

Routing protocols No routing protocols are Routing protocols such as RIP,


indulged in the process. EIGRP, etc are involved in the
routing process.

Additional resources Not required Needs additional resources to


store the information.

Steps –
1. Open Network Topology.
2. Complete the cabling.
3. Configure the IP addresses on the end devices.
4. Configure the IP addresses on routers
5. use static routing or dynamic routing

To check router’s Routing table


A routing table lists all of the preferred routes known to a router. It is viewable in two ways,
1. one using the inspect tool of packet tracer and
2. The other using the show ip route Cisco command.
click on router 🡪 CLI>press enter key 🡪 type enable 🡪 type show ip route
and it will display following output.

The sources of the routing table entries are identified by a code. The code identifies how the route was learned. For
instance, common codes include the following:
 L—Identifies the address assigned to a router’s interface. This allows the router to efficiently determine
when it receives a packet for the interface instead of being forwarded.
 C—Identifies a directly connected network.
 S—Identifies a static route created to reach a specific network.
 D—Identifies a dynamically learned network from another router using EIGRP.
 O—Identifies a dynamically learned network from another router using the OSPF routing protocol.
 R- for RIP.
For Static routing
Click on Router0 -> config -> static
and add address, mask and next hop address
For dynamic routing
click on Router 0 -> config -> RIP
and add network address of connected networks and click on On

Outputs:
Network with 1 router
Network with 2 routers

Conclusion: Successfully studied and implemented pc to router connection and transferred packets within network
and between networks successfully.
