Advantage and disadvantage of static routing?

Answer 1

A static IP address is where a computer keeps the same IP address every time it connects to the internet. The advantage of a static IP is that you should not experience a lapse in Internet connection as you would do with a dynamic IP. A disadvantage of a static IP is that some websites only allow a certain amount of content to be downloaded. The user would have to change their IP address to be able to download more data.

Answer 2

Static routes are known to be manual configured thus it does not change and its not dynamic.

Advantages

• Static routes are simple and quick to configure.
• Static routing is supported on all routing devices and all routers.
• Static routes are easy to predict and understand in small networks.

Disadvantages

• Static routes require extensive planning and have high management overhead. The more routers exist in a network, the more routes that need to be configured. If you have 'N' number of routers and a route between each router is needed, then you must configure N x N routes, so, for a network of nine routers, you need 81 routes (9 x 9 = 81).
• Static routes do not dynamically adapt to network topology changes or equipment failures.
• Static routing does not scale well in large networks.

Answer 3

Small networks it is great to manage specific devices
