Solved: Routing beetween company branches

pwolsza_wolfik1 · ‎07-07-2010

I have 6 routers like on this configuration:

First I want to connect from LAN of the routers rout 1,2,3 to the servers (192.168.179.4-9) behind CH2.

For second I want to connect from LAN rout 1 to the computers in the LAN rout 3 and rout 2.

How configure routing ?? Shoud I use static or can I use dynamic (Cisco 871) ???

Hi ,

As you know static routing is configured by the network administrator and is not capable of adjusting to changes in the network without network administrator intervention. Dynamic routing adjusts to changing network circumstances by analyzing incoming routing update messages without administrator intervention.

So better to go with dynamic routing protocol configuration,check out the below link

Hope to Help !!

I think dynamic routing protocol would be better as that will ensure shortest path to the destination. Also, it will provide redundancy in case one of the links fail. Seems like 871 certainly supports RIP (V1/V2). So, that should not be a problem. Only thing you need to make sure is that you run the routing protocol over the VPN tunnel to ensure proper network convergence.

Hope this helps.
