Can Router0 finally talk to Router3? In this weekly lab write-up, we dive deep into the world of Static Routing using Cisco Packet Tracer.

A router only knows about the networks it's directly connected to. To bridge the gap between multiple subnets (192.168.10.0, 192.168.20.0, and 192.168.30.0), we have to manually tell each router how to find its neighbors. I’ll walk you through the exact ip route commands needed to configure a multi-router topology and achieve a successful ping across the entire network.

In this lab, we cover:
Understanding the Routing Table.

Why can't routers see "hidden" subnets by default?

Step-by-step configuration for 4 different routers.

Troubleshooting the data path for a successful end-to-end ping.

The Configuration Commands:
Router0: ip route 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.2

Router1: ip route 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.2

Router2: ip route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.1

Router3: ip route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.30.1

If you’re studying for your CCNA or just getting started with networking, this lab is a fundamental building block!
