Configure Static Route – GNS3 Lab -Mikrotik CCNA | supernetting
configure static route on mikrotik routers without default route using supernetting.
all commands:
to assign ips to interfaces:
ip address add address=192.168.xx.x/xx interface=etherx
to create new route:
ip route add dst-address=192.168.xx.xx/xx gateway=192.168.x.x
A static route is a route that is manually inserted into the routing table. Static routes appear in the routing table as "S" routes and are often used: When there is only one way to reach a destination. As a backup route to a destination.
Static routing can be used for small networks that only need one or two routes. This is often more efficient as a link is not wasted by exchanging dynamic routing information. Static routing is often used as a complement to dynamic routing to provide a fail-safe backup route when a dynamic route is not available.
The disadvantages of static routing:
They are not easy to implement in a large network.
Managing static configurations can become very time consuming.
If a link fails, a static route cannot reroute traffic.
Supernetting is the opposite of subnetting. With subnetting, a single large network is divided into several smaller subnetworks. IP and Ethernet aggregation is a converged networking approach that allows the aggregation of traffic from common Ethernet (layer 2) and IP (layer 3) services in the same cost-effective network architecture.
