Re: Router with out any routing Protocol

Let us make some thing clear here !!!Could any one sent the exact wording in
the question !!!

I wanted to clarify the following !!!

Are we required to disable "ip routing " on R1 ????

Or

Are we required not to advertise any of the R1 address via routing protocol
????

I would assume Yes to second question and then make my configuration . In
such a case this is a clear possibility .

Step 1 : On R1 Create ip default route to point R2's Ethernet interface
This can be done using "IP Default Network " cli.
Step 2: Configure NAT Overload on R1 so that All the packet originated on
R1 gets nated to R1's Ethernet facing R2

Ok...But this breaks a general rule : No default networks to be configured
unless specified . Hence if we are not given any room for default networks
!!! Then we will have to fallback on PBR ( Local Policy Routing ) as
substitute for Step 1 .

Pls. Note: In my opinion ODR also falls under routing protocol category !!!
If R1 is going to advertise its connected address over ODR then it also
amounts violation of question constraints .

I have also seen PBR is resorted to when there is no routing information is
available on the routers in Cisco Press Books CCIE Practice Lab ( Lab 4 )
and also in CheckIT labs !!!

Hence this solution should be in line with CCIE way of doing thing ( Pls.
correct me ..if anybody else have differing opinion ).

Thanks and Regards
Arun
