RE: Routing without routing protocol

Tim,

How about providing a static route on R5 pointing to the Loopback
interface on the 3550. Then NAT all traffic on R5 destined for the
3550's Loopback interface through E0/1 to the IP address on its E0/1
interface, which the 3550 will see as directly connected.

If you need your 3550 to be able to initiate pings to other addresses
and you are not allowed a static default, you can do that by disabling
IP routing and providing a default gateway to R5's E0/1 (provided the
rules allow this).

Hi All,

This one got me.

3550 has routing enabled but no routing protocols enabled.

It's only path to the rest of the network is via R5. All other routers
on the
other side of R5 must be able to ping the 3550's loopback.

I'm allowed to use one static route on R5.

This is what it looks like:

3550 lo0 fa0/5 ------- e0/1 R5 ----- rest of network

How do I provide reachabiltiy to the 3550's lo0 without violating lab
rules ie
no default routes or default networks and
no static routes except the one explicitly allowed here?

Please tell me what I'm missing. Thanks, Tim
