How to configure Static Route on router
In this article I will demonstrate an example of static route configurations. We will use four different series router so you can get familiar with all different platform covered in CCNA exam. Create a topology as shown in figure.
A static route is a manually configured route on your router. Static routes are typically used in smaller networks and when few networks or subnets exist, or with WAN links that have little available bandwidth. With a network that has hundreds of routes, static routes are not scalable, since you would have to configure each route and any redundant paths for that route on each router.

To configure any router double click on it and select CLI.To configure this topology use this step by step guide.

To test static routing do ping from pc1 to pc2 and vice versa. If you get replay then you have successfully configured static routing but if you did not get replay double check this configuration and try to troubleshoot. I have uploaded a configured and tested topology in case you are unable to locate the problem spot then download this configuration file. And try to find out where have you committed mistake
