Configured inter-VLAN routing using router-on-a-stick architecture with VLAN segmentation, trunk links, and subinterfaces to enable communication between isolated networks.
This lab demonstrates inter-VLAN routing using a router-on-a-stick setup in Cisco Packet Tracer. It simulates an enterprise network with VLAN segmentation and routing between departments.
- Create and assign VLANs on a switch
- Configure trunk link to router
- Set up router subinterfaces (802.1Q)
- Enable communication between VLANs
- 1 Router
- 1 Switch
- 2 PCs
- Router connected to switch via trunk link
- VLAN 10 β 192.168.10.0/24 (PC1: 192.168.10.10)
- VLAN 20 β 192.168.20.0/24 (PC2: 192.168.20.10)
- Gateways:
- 192.168.10.1
- 192.168.20.1
- VLANs created on switch
- Access ports assigned to VLANs
- Trunk configured between switch and router
- Router subinterfaces configured for each VLAN
- Ping between VLANs confirms inter-VLAN routing is working
- VLAN segmentation
- Trunking (802.1Q)
- Inter-VLAN routing
- Basic enterprise network design
