Why does the switch between Host and the router not require configuration with an IP address to forward packets?
If a switch is connected to a router then the MAC address of the router is known to the switch through that port. A host takes advantage of this by using the default gateway address (the address of the router) which the switch "knows" by its lookup table. Therefore, the switch can learn the address automatically and no configuration is necessary.
How different rages of ip send data to each other?
Short and simple answer is: routers A little more detail. A router has a routing table. That table tells it about the networks that are connected to it, and where to send IP packets based on their addresses. So for example, lets make a simple network: Subnet A: 10.0.0.0/24 Host A: 10.0.0.2 Subnet B: 10.0.1.0/24 Host B: 10.0.1.2 Router Interface A: 10.0.0.1 Interface B: 10.0.1.1 Interface C: 10.0.2.1 * default route So, if you are host A, and you want to send data to host B (on a different subnet) you would have to send your data to Interface A on the router. It would see that you are trying to send data to a different subnet then the one you are on, and it would look in its routing table to see if it knows anything about the subnet 10.0.1.0/24. Since the router is connected to 10.0.1.0/24 on interface B, the router would send the packet out interface B, and it would end up at host B through the magic of switching. Now, if we needed to send data to say... google.com (66.102.7.99) the router would see that address, and not know where to send it, since none of its interfaces are connected to that subnet. The router would then send this packet out its default route, which would lead to a router that had more information on other networks it is connected to. This would continue until eventually it would reach a router that had some idea where the 66.102.7 network is, and the packet would eventually end up at google. I say eventually, and it may take several hops to get to google, but the whole process (from your computer to google -- or wherever) normally is done in under 250 milliseconds. (My packets get to google in about 65 milliseconds).
What is the most common static route used in a host computer?
the default gateway is the most common static route used in a host computer. netstat -r is the command line command to obtain the routing table.
What command is used to configure a router's host name to Tech-router?
hostname router1
