1. Seminar ON CISCO ROUTER CONFIGURATION

2. CONTENT Introduction to Router Series of Router Interfaces of Router Types of Router Protocols used in Router Configuring a Router Configure RIP & IGRP protocols

3. What is Router & why we use it? Router is basically a special computer that select the best path. Operate on physical, data & network layer in the OSI model. Uses protocols for determine a best path(such as RIP,IGRP etc). It also perform a switching function. Router has four basic components: 1. CPU 2. I/O interfaces 3. Memory 4.Bus connecting to the component

4. Cisco Router Models Cisco routers come in variety of models, ranging from the 600 series to the 12000 series.

5. INTERFACES OF ROUTER LAN Interface:- Includes one or more Ethernet or Token Ring interface. WAN Interface:- Responsible for connecting the customers’ n/w to WAN services.

7. TYPES OF CISCO ROUTERS Fixed Router:- Have fixed interfaces means can’t change after installation. Modular Router:- Have not fixed interfaces means can change according to need.

8. PROTOCOL USED IN CISCO ROUTER RIP (Routing Information Protocol) IGRP (Interior Gateway Routing Protocol) OSPF (Open shortest path first) EIGRP (Enhance Interior Gateway Routing Protocol)

9. RIP Protocol Standard internet protocol. Sends periodic routing updates every 30 sec. Sends triggered updates whenever topology changes occur. Used a hope count metric. Paths with the smallest hope count are the best. Define a maximum hope count of 16. Allow up to 25 routes in a single routing update packet. Support multiple Routed protocols. Comes in 2 versions (ver1 & ver2).

10. IGRP Protocol Sends periodic routing updates every 90 sec. Sends triggered updates whenever topology changes occur. Has a maximum hope count of 255. Currently runs in only TCP/IP and OSI network. Default Administrative Distance=100 In addition, IGRP support 2 types of route in TCP/IP environment:- Interior Routes (routes within an AS) Exterior Routes (routes outside the AS)

11. Interior Routes subnet 2Subnet 3 Network 10.0.0.0 Subnet 4 subnet 1 IGRP interior routes in AS

12. Exterior Routes Exterior route Autonomous System 20 Autonomous System 10 Exterior route outside the AS

13. CONFIGURE A CISCO ROUTER

14. Logging into the router This I called user mode and is mostly used to view statistics, it is also a stepping-stone to logging into privileged mode. Router> Router>enable Router# Router# indicates the privileged mode where we can both view and router configuration. 14We can go back from privileged mode into user mode by using the disable command. Router# disable Router> At this point, you can type logout to exit the console: Router# logout

15. Router Modes To configure from CLI (Command Line Interface), we can make global changes to the router by typing configure terminal (or config t for short), which puts us in global configuration mode and changes what’s known as running-config. We can type config from the privileged mode prompt and then just press Enter to take the default of terminal.

16. FORMAT OF CONFIGURATION Router> Router > en Router # config t Router (config) # hostname (i.e. Router name) Router (config) # interface (serial or ethernet) Router (config-if) # ip address subnet mask Router (config-if) # no shut Router (config-if) # copy run start Router (config) # exit (back to previous mode)

17. This figure shows four routers: - 2500A, 2500B, 2500C, 2621A. These routers, by default, only know about their direct connected networks. The three 2501 routers connected via a WAN and the 2621 router connected via the Ethernet network off 2501A.The first step is to configure each router with the correct configuration.

18. Following table shows IP address scheme that I’ll used to configure the router

21. General Format For RIP Configuration Router> Router>en Router(config)#router rip Router(config-router)#network net_id Router(config-router)#^z Router#copy run start

22. General Format For IGRP Configuration Router> Router>en Router(config)#router igrp Router(config-router)#igrp autonomous-system-number Router(config-router)#network net_id Router(config-router)#^z Router#copy run start
