Need to connect multiple routers in the same subnet

[xmakina]

Hello Dears,

I would like to post another question. I need to connect multiple routers in a single subnet as indicated by the vertical line.

Should I connect them all 4x routers by a switch in Packet Tracer ? Does this make sense in the real world ?

Please advise and thank you so much in advance.

Warm regards,

Yes you would use a switch and all ports need to be in the same vlan. 

This is what you would do in the real world.

Hi Jon,

Thank you so much for the confirmation. You have cleared my doubt about this as I don't usually see multiple routers being connected by a single switch, at least, not in my current role.

Thank you so much.

Hello,

in Packet Tracer, you can also use a hub. Switch works too, any layer 2 device will.
