Chapter 6 Objectives

• Understanding IP routing
• Static routing
• Default routing
• Dynamic routing
• RIP
• RIPv2
• IGRP
• Verifying routing
• Oddly, the exam topics covered in this chapter
  (6) are listed at the beginning of the chapter.
  Some of the topics listed are not really covered
  in this chapter at all. For example, OSPF and
  EIGRP are covered in chapter 7, not chapter 6.

What is Routing?

• In order to route, a router needs to know
• Remote Networks
• Neighbor Routers
• All Possible routes to remote network
• The absolute best route to all remote networks
• Maintain and verify the routing information
• Remember a router does not deal with hosts!
• A router only deals with networks, and the best
  path to them
• An IP address allows packets to move from network
  to network
• Hardware (Mac) addresses move the packets to
  specific hosts

Basic Path Selection

• On what interface will the router send out a
  packet if it has destination address of
  10.10.10.18?

1. The destination address of a frame will be
the Host A address
2. The destination IP address of a packet will be
the IP address of the Destination Router
3. The destination port number in a segment
header will have a value of 80 (the port number
used by HTTP)

Idea of routing (5 guest slides)

• Routers forward datagrams between connected
  networks
• They need to know via which interface to send a
  datagram
• Routing decisions are based on the information
  stored in the routing table

8
Routing table

• Tells where to send datagram for a particular
  network

• Next-Hop routers must be directly reachable

9
Routing table (cont.)

• Default Route - a special entry in the routing
  table
• Pass all datagrams for unknown networks to this
  router
• Represented by the entry for network 0.0.0.0
• Routing uses network part of the address!

10
Routing Algorithm

• Extract destination IP address from datagram
• Extract network address from the IP address
• If destination network equals my network
• Send directly to destination using physical
  network
• Else If destination address matches a
  host-specific route in the routing table
• Send to the router specified in the routing table

11
Routing Algorithm (cont.)

• Else if destination network matches a network in
  the routing table
• Send to the router specified in the routing entry
• Else If there is a default route in the routing
  table
• Send to the router specified in the default route
  entry
• Else
• Send a No route to host message to the source

12
Step-by-Step IP Routing Process (book, pp
331-36)

• The IP routing process is fairly simple and
  doesnt change, regardless of the size of your
  network.
• For an example, well use Figure 6.2 to describe
  step-by-step what happens when Host_A wants to
  communicate with Host_B on a different network

13
Step 1

• Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) creates
  an echo request payload (which is just the
  alphabet in the data field).
• The echo request is the first part/half of what
  is commonly called a Ping the second part is
  the echo reply, from the device being pinged.
• So, A is going to ping B

14
Step 2

• ICMP hands that payload to Internet Protocol
  (IP), which then creates a packet.
• At a minimum, this packet contains an IP source
  address, an IP destination address, and a
  Protocol field with 01h.
• (Remember that Cisco likes to use 0x in front of
  hex characters, so this could look like 0x01.)
• All of that tells the receiving host to whom it
  should hand the payload when the destination is
  reachedin this example, ICMP.

15
Step 3

• Once the packet is created, IP determines whether
  the destination IP address is on the local
  network or a remote one.

16
Step 4

• Since IP determines that this is a remote
  request, the packet needs to be sent to the
  default gateway so the packet can be routed to
  the remote network.
• The Registry in Windows is parsed to find the
  configured default gateway.

17
Step 5

• The default gateway of host 172.16.10.2 (Host_A)
  is configured to 172.16.10.1. For this packet to
  be sent to the default gateway, the hardware
  address of the routers interface Ethernet 0
  (configured with the IP address of 172.16.10.1)
  must be known.
• Why? So the packet can be handed down to the
  Data Link layer, framed, and sent to the routers
  interface thats connected to the 172.16.10.0
  network.
• Because hosts only communicate via hardware
  addresses on the local LAN, its important to
  recognize that for Host_A to communicate to
  Host_B, it has to send packets to the Media
  Access Control (MAC) address of the default
  gateway.

18
Step 6

• Next, the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache
  of the host is checked to see if the IP address
  of the default gateway has already been resolved
  to a hardware address. Two possibilities ensue
• 1. If it has, the packet is then free to be
  handed to the Data Link layer for framing. (The
  hardware destination address is also handed down
  with that packet.) To view the ARP cache on your
  host, use the following command
• C\gtarp -a
• Interface 172.16.10.2 --- 0x3
• Internet Address Physical Address
  Type
• 172.16.10.1 00-15-05-06-31-b0
  dynamic
• 2. If the hardware address isnt already in the
  ARP cache of the host, an ARP broadcast is sent
  out onto the local network to search for the
  hardware address of 172.16.10.1. The router
  responds to the request and provides the hardware
  address of Ethernet 0, and the host caches this
  address.

19

• Once the packet and destination hardware address
  are handed to the Data Link layer, the LAN driver
  is used to provide media access via the type of
  LAN being used (in this example, Ethernet). A
  LAN driver provides communication control between
  the NOS and NIC (network interface card).
• A frame is then generated, encapsulating the
  packet with control info.
• Within that frame are the hardware destination
  and source addresses plus, in this case, an
  Ether-Type field that describes the Network layer
  protocol that handed the packet to the Data Link
  layerin this instance, IP.
• At the end of the frame is that Frame Check
  Sequence (FCS) field that houses the result of
  the cyclic redundancy check (CRC).
• The frame would look something like what is
  detailed in Figure 6.3. It contains Host_As
  hardware (MAC) address and the destination
  hardware address of the default gateway. It does
  not include the remote hosts MAC
  addressremember that!

router when Host_B is pinged

21
Step 8

Step 9
23
Step 10

• The packet is pulled from the frame, and what is
  left of the frame is discarded.
• The packet is handed to the protocol listed in
  the Ether-Type field i.e., its given to IP.
• So now the packet is at the router, having
  entered at interface E0, the default gateway for
  the 172.16.10.0 network.
• Next, the router will try to send the packet to
  its destination in the 172.16.20.0 network.
• To do so, it will have to find this network in
  its routing tables.

24
Step 11

• IP receives the packet and checks the IP
  destination address.
• Since the packets destination address doesnt
  match any of the addresses configured on the
  receiving router itself, the router will look up
  the destination IP network address in its routing
  table.

25
Step 12

• The routing table must have an entry for the
  network 172.16.20.0 or the packet will be
  discarded immediately and an ICMP message will be
  sent back to the originating device with a
  destination network unreachable message.
• Note that 172.16.x.x is a Class B network. .10
  and .20 would ordinarily be part of the same
  network and therefore couldnt be set up on 2
  networks. But this network is subnetted, i.e.,
  the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

26
Step 13

• If the router does find an entry for the
  destination network in its table, the packet is
  switched to the exit interfacein this example,
  interface Ethernet 1.
• The output below (next slide) displays the Lab_A
  routers routing table. The C means directly
  connected.
• No routing protocols are needed in this network
  since all (both) networks are directly connected.

• C 172.16.10.0 is directly connected, Ethernet0
• C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Ethernet1

28
Step 14

• The router packet-switches the packet to the
  Ethernet 1 buffer.
• OK, ready to go out to Host_B, but first

29
Step 15

• The Ethernet 1 buffer needs to know the hardware
  address of the destination host and first checks
  the ARP cache.
• If the hardware address of Host_B has already
  been resolved and is in the routers ARP cache,
  then the packet and the hardware address are
  handed down to the Data Link layer to be framed.
• Lets take a look at the ARP cache on the Lab_A
  router by using the show ip arp command
• Lab_Ash ip arp

• Internet 172.16.10.2 12
  0030.9492.a4ac ARPA Ethernet0
• The dash (-) means that this is the physical
  interface on the router.

30
Step 15 (continued)

• From the output in the previous slide, we can see
  that the router knows the 172.16.10.2 (Host_A)
  and 172.16.20.2 (Host_B) hardware addresses.
• Cisco routers will keep an entry in the ARP table
  for 4 hours.
• If the hardware address has not already been
  resolved, the router sends an ARP request out E1
  looking for the hardware address of 172.16.20.2.
• Host_B responds with its hardware address, and
  the packet and destination hardware address are
  both sent to the Data Link layer for framing.

31
Step 16

• The Data Link layer creates a frame with the
  destination and source hardware address,
  Ether-Type field, and FCS field at the end.
• Still a small packet just four fields
• The frame is handed to the Physical layer to be
  sent out on the physical medium one bit at a
  time.
• Now we see packets actually going to Host_B

32
Step 17

• Host_B receives the frame and immediately runs a
  CRC. finally!!
• If the result matches whats in the FCS field,
  the hardware destination address is then
  checked. If the host finds a match, the
  Ether-Type field is then checked to determine the
  protocol that the packet should be handed to at
  the Network layer IP in this example.
• IP is by far the most common Layer 3 protocol.
• Moving up the OSI model. Data Link to Network

33
Step 18

• At the Network layer, IP receives the packet and
  checks the IP destination address.
• Since theres finally a match made, the Protocol
  field is checked to find out to whom the payload
  should be given.

34
Step 19

• The payload is handed to ICMP, which understands
  that this is an echo request.
• ICMP responds to this by immediately discarding
  the packet and generating a new payload as an
  echo reply.

35
Step 20

• A packet is then created, including the
• source and destination addresses,
• Protocol field, and
• payload.
• The destination device is now Host_A

36
Step 21

• IP then checks to see whether the destination IP
  address is a device on the local LAN or on a
  remote network.
• Since the destination device is on a remote
  network, the packet needs to be sent to the
  default gateway.

37
Step 22

• The default gateway IP address is found in the
  Registry of the Windows device, and the ARP cache
  is checked to see if the hardware address has
  already been resolved from an IP address.
• You can search the Registry by going into the
  Registry Editor (start/Run/regedit), then
  searching for DefaultGateway (F3 enter search
  parameters).
• See Default / DHCP Default Gateway next slide

38
Step 22 (continued)
Above is a view of my home computers Registry
settings HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\
Services\longkey\Parameters\Tcpip
39
Step 23

• Once the hardware address of the default gateway
  is found, the packet and destination hardware
  addresses are handed down to the Data Link layer
  for framing.

40
Step 24

• The Data Link layer frames the packet of
  information and includes the following in the
  header
• The destination source hardware addresses
• The Ether-Type field with 0x0800 (IP) in it
• The FCS field with the CRC result in tow

41
Step 25

• The frame is now handed down to the Physical
  layer to be sent out over the network medium one
  bit at a time.

42
Step 26

• The routers Ethernet 1 interface receives the
  bits and builds a frame.
• The CRC is run, and the FCS field is checked to
  make sure the answers match.

43
Step 27

• Once the CRC is found to be okay, the hardware
  destination address is checked.
• Since the routers interface is a match, the
  packet is pulled from the frame and the
  Ether-Type field is checked to see to what
  protocol at the Network layer the packet should
  be delivered.

44
Step 28

• The protocol is determined to be IP, so it gets
  the packet.
• IP runs a CRC check on the IP header first and
  then checks the destination IP address.
• IP does not run a complete CRC as the Data Link
  layer doesit only checks the header for errors.

47
Step 29

• In this case, the router does know how to get to
  network 172.16.10.0 the exit interface is
  Ethernet 0 so the packet is switched to
  interface Ethernet 0.

48
Step 30

• The router checks the ARP cache to determine
  whether the hardware address for 172.16.10.2 has
  already been resolved.

49
Step 31

• Since the hardware address to 172.16.10.2 is
  already cached from the originating trip to
  Host_B, the hardware address and packet are
  handed to the Data Link layer.

50
Step 32

• The Data Link layer builds a frame with the
  destination hardware address and source hardware
  address and then puts IP in the Ether-Type field.
  
• A CRC is run on the frame and the result is
  placed in the FCS field.

51
Step 33

• The frame is then handed to the Physical layer to
  be sent out onto the local network one bit at a
  time.

52
Step 34

• The destination host receives the frame, runs a
  CRC, checks the destination hardware address, and
  looks in the Ether-Type field to find out to whom
  to hand the packet.

53
Step 35

• IP is the designated receiver, and after the
  packet is handed to IP at the Network layer, it
  checks the protocol field for further direction.
• IP finds instructions to give the payload to
  ICMP, and ICMP determines the packet to be an
  ICMP echo reply.

54
Step 36

• ICMP acknowledges that it has received the reply
  by sending an exclamation point (!) to the user
  interface.
• ICMP then attempts to send four more echo
  requests to the destination host.
• The End

55
Post Script

• These steps are the basic routing process, no
  matter how large the network.
• There would just be more hops in a big
  internetwork.
• Point to recap
• Moving from router to router in a big
  internetwork, at each hop the hardware address
  changes from one routers Mac address to the
  nexts.
• But from hop to hop, the IP address remains the
  same!
• This reflects the fact that hardware addresses
  (Mac) are always local, while logical addresses
  (IP, for example), are always remote.
• I.e., in a local LAN, you always use a Mac
  addrss, not IP.

• This is a project that runs from pp 336 to 362.
• Setup 5 Routers and an wireless Access Point
• Neither of our network simulators has these
  routers, so all we can do is read over the
  configurations.
• Notes
• P.345 With an ISR router, no need to use the
  clock rate command they automatically detect
  it.

59

• Notes (continued)
• Page 205 Better explanation here
• Some modular routers use three numbers instead of
  two.
• The first 0 is the router itself, and then you
  choose the slot, and then the port. Heres an
  example of a serial interface on a 2811
• Todd(config)interface serial ?
• lt0-2gt Serial interface number
• Todd(config)interface serial 0/0/?
• lt0-1gt Serial interface number
• Todd(config)interface serial 0/0/0
• Todd(config-if)

60

• Notes (continued)
• You should always view a running-config output
  first so you know what interfaces you have to
  deal with. Heres a 2801 output

62

• At other times you may see a x/x/x config for
  modular units (like WICs) where you have a slot,
  a subslot, and a port. From Cisco.com
• The slot/subslot/port format only applies to WIC
  interfaces. Interfaces that are native to the
  network modules still use only the slot/port
  format. That is
• ltinterface-namegt slot/port is used whenever the
  interfaces are native on the network module.
• ltinterface-namegt slot/subslot/port is used
  whenever the interfaces are on the WIC slot of a
  network module (NM).
• There are still more examples where the interface
  is a 3-part config.

63

• Notes (continued)
• Pg 346-47 Just a command idiosyncrasy
• With ISR routers you cant use erase start, you
  must enter erase startup-config
• This is so even though no other command begins
  with S
• Eg Routererase s?
• startup-config
• So under the normal rules of the Cisco IOS,
  erase s should work exactly like erase
  startup-config, but it doesnt.
• This is probably just an oversight that will be
  corrected in the next IOS version. Just be aware
  that you will sometimes find anomalies like this.

64

• Notes (continued)
• Pg 351 ff Wireless interfaces 2 things unique

Routing Protocols

• Routing protocols are used between routers to
• Determine the path of a packet through a network
• Maintain routing tables
• Two types interior/exterior gateway protocols
  (I/EGPs)
• Examples
• IGP RIP, IGRP
• EGP Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)

71
Routing Protocols
EGPs BGP
IGPs RIP, IGRP
Autonomous System 1
Autonomous System 2

• An autonomous system is a collection of networks
  under a common administrative domain, i.e., all
  routers sharing the same routing table are in the
  same AS.
• IGPs operate within an autonomous system.
• EGPs connect different autonomous systems.

72
Classful Routing Overview

• Classful routing protocols do not include the
  subnet mask with the route advertisement.
• Within the same network, consistency of the
  subnet masks is assumed.
• Summary routes are exchanged between foreign
  networks.
• Examples of classful routing protocols
• RIP Version 1 (RIPv1)
• IGRP

73
Classless Routing Overview

• Classless routing protocols include the subnet
  mask with the route advertisement.
• Classless routing protocols support
  variable-length subnet masking (VLSM).
• Summary routes can be manually controlled within
  the network.
• Examples of classless routing protocols
• RIP Version 2 (RIPv2)
• EIGRP
• OSPF
• IS-IS

Interior Gateway Routing Protocol

• Maximum hop count 255 for larger network,
  default 100
• Composite metric bandwidth and delay of the line.

IGRP vs. RIP
Large network Small network
Uses AS number for activation Uses network address, with all subnet and host bits off
Full route table update per 90 sec Full route table update per 30 sec
AD 100 AD 120
Uses bandwidth and delay of the line as metric, maximum hop count 255 Uses only hop count to determine the best path to a remote network, max 15
86
Discontiguous Addressing

• Two networks of the same classful networks are
  separated by a different network address

192.168.10.0/24
192.168.10.0/24
10.1.1.0/24

• RIPv1 and IGRP do not advertise subnet masks, and
  therefore cannot support discontiguous subnets.
• OSPF, EIGRP, and RIPv2 can advertise subnet
  masks, and therefore can support discontiguous
  subnets.

87
Passive Interface

• Maybe you dont want to send RIP updates out your
  router interface connected to the Internet. Use
  the passive-interface command
• Router(config)router rip
• Router(config-router)passive-interface serial0

Internet
S0
Gateway
This allows a router to receive route updates on
an interface, but not send updates via that
interface
