Different Static Route Options

The IP assignment on interface is shown as above.

We will demonstrate the following case study.

Case Study 1: Static routes using exit interface

Case Study 2:Static routes using IP as next hop

Case Study 3:Static routes using exit interface and IP add as next hop

Let’s understand how the communication takes place in Ethernet or multi-access networks.

  1. Whenever router want to reach a particular destination, it basically needs two information viz the destination IP address where it wants to go and the L2 address with respect to the destination.
  2. The router must check first whether the outgoing interface is point to point or ethernet/multi-access. In case it is Ethernet then it must resolve L2 address
  3. For getting the L2 address the router must generated ARP request for the destination subset. The router must know on which outgoing interface it needs to generate ARP so the router do routing recursive process to know the outgoing interface for a particular destination.
