Static Route Configuration on Cisco Routers

Cisco Static Route Configuration

To send the traffic to the destination we can use two types of routing. Static and Dynamic routing. Static route tell the network devices about exact location.Beside, static routers can work well with small networks. For large scale networks dynamic routing will be better choice.Here we will focus static routing. The below example will explain the configuration of the static routes.

First run the command show ip route to view the IP routing table for router A before defining static routes

RouterA# configure terminal 
RouterA(config)# ip route 10.10.12.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.2 
RouterA(config)# ip route 10.10.13.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.11.2 
RouterA(config)# exit

If we give show ip route command on router A to view the IP routing table we will see both directly connected and static routes detail.

First run the command show ip route to view the IP routing table for router B before defining static routes

RouterB# configure terminal 
RouterB(config)# ip route 10.10.11.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1
RouterB(config)# ip route 10.10.13.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.12.2 
RouterB(config)# exit

If we give show ip route command on router B to view the IP routing table we will see both directly connected and static routes detail.

First run the command show ip route to view the IP routing table for router C before defining static routes.
