How to configure Router on a Stick

Lessons Discussion

Hello Jalendra

Once you have the router on a stick topology set up, you can then add as many hosts to each VLAN as you like without needing any changes in the configuration of the switch or the router. The only thing you must do is:

  1. Make sure that the host is connected to an access port on SW1 that is configured with the correct VLAN
  2. Make sure that the host is configured with an IP address in the range of the subnet corresponding to that VLAN
  3. Make sure to configure the host with the correct gateway address, which is the subinterface of the router that corresponds to that VLAN.

I hope this has been helpful!
