Connecting 4 Routers Packet tracer

I am new to routing. I made 4 different networks in packet tracer and they work individually but i don't know how to connect them so that I can ping PCs on different networks. right. How do I do this!?! Eigrp? Static? Forgive my ignorance and any help would be appreciated.

Hello Friend,
I am pleased to see how there are creative people who always encourage being self-taught and go beyond what has been seen in a class or tutorial.

As I observe you have configured router-on-a-stick, it is important to remember that the interfaces of the switch that connects to the router must be trunks so that the vlan can travel if you already did that what follows is to apply a scalable protocol I do not recommend static for how complex it can be to configure for this you could try EIGRP without class for the networks that you have configured.

For example, all dynamic protocols work with networks that are directly connected or sometimes called local networks, after identifying those networks, the process is added to the routing process:

OrlandoRouter
eigrp router 1
network 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.255
+ the network that connects to the Phoenix router

Phoenix Router
eigrp router 1
network 192.168.4.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.5.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.6.0 0.0.0.255
+ the network that connects Router1 and OrlandoRouter router

Router1
eigrp router 1
network 192.168.7.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.8.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.9.0 0.0.0.255
+ the network that connects the TorontoRouter router and PhoenixRouter

Toronto Router
eigrp router 1
network 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.11.0 0.0.0.255
network 192.168.12.0 0.0.0.255
+ the network that connects to Router Router1

Instead of the Hubs you could divide by port range to the switch to connect each of the networks through the VLANs.

 

Check if there is connectivity between the devices. I look forward to you if another query arises.

Regards.

I don't think I did this properly. I'm going to try and post my follow up questions. Thank you for helping!
