Default Static Route Help

[mrgubbins596]

Hello, I was trying to construct a simple network and got it up the specifications, however when the last step was to configure ipv4 static routes I couldn't quite get it to connect and ping end to end. I tried multiple things but nothing seemed to work. It should've been a directly connected route  for router 1 and a next hop for router 2. But not only can't the right PC's ping the left ones, router 2 can't even ping them

Hi @mrgubbins596 ,

The issue is not with the states routes, but with the default gateway configured in the DHCP pool in R1.

ip dhcp pool LAN-POOL

default-router 192.168.1.2 (should be 192.168.1.1)

Change the default router and make sure you do a "ipconfig /renew" on both PC0 and PC1 and you should be able to ping the PCs on the right end side.

That solved it, thank you very much! One typo had dire results.
