Router Configuration: Subinterface, VLAN, and Static Route Setup

This guide walks through creating VLANs 2, 20, and 30, configuring VLANIF interfaces with IP addresses, setting up PC access ports, establishing a trunk link to the router, and adding a default static route to complete the router configuration.

Router Configuration: Subinterface, VLAN, and Static Route Setup

Step 1: Batch create VLANs 2, 20, and 30 on the switch.

Step 2: Configure VLANIF interfaces with their respective IP addresses.

interface Vlanif 20

ip address 20.2.1.1 24

quit

interface Vlanif 30

ip address 30.3.1.1 24

quit

Step 3: Configure the PC access ports (GE0/0/1 and GE0/0/2) and assign them to the appropriate VLANs.

Step 4: Configure the trunk port (GE0/0/3) that connects to the router and allow VLAN 2.

Step 5: Add a default static route on the switch.
