Cisco packet tracer router

1. CISCO Packet Tracer
 Connecting multiple networks in a router in CISCO packet tracer
Step to connect multiple networks in a Router. (Suppose 2 Networks named ‘A’ & ‘B’)
1. Setup Networks and configure IP address to every end devices
(computer, laptops).
2. Set a Router and connect the Switches to the Router using straight
through cable. You can change the name of the Router by simply going
to the configuration setting (config) of the router and type the name in
the display name dialogue box.

2. 3. Click on the Router and go to CLS(Command Line Interface).
Use these commands to connect the Router to Network A.
You can use IP address of any class but the Network address must be same in
one entire network.
4. After configuring the Router to the first network (Network A). Press
Ctrl+z. And again, use the same commands to configure the router to
another network (Network B) but use an IP address related to that
entire network.
5. Now the Router is connected to all networks.
6. After this, the default gateway IP address must be set to every end
devices so that the communication can be done by one end device to
any other end device located at any network. Default gateway IP
address is the address that we set during router CLS. And every network
does have their own gateway IP address.
Over here, 192.168.10.3 and 192.168.20.3 are the gateway IP address of
Network A and Network B respectively. And this is the complete
connection between the Switches and the Router.

3. 7. We can check the connection using the ping command.
As we can see that using ping command, all IP addresses are checked and it shows
that the connection is successfully made.


Conclusion:
After using packet tracer to connect multiple networks to the router, I am able to
make a static connection between the router and the switches.
