Issue using static route in Packet Tracer

Alhaji265

Error appears when I enter these config in, here are the diagram:




Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.252.0.0 124.10.10.10
%Inconsistent address and mask
Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.192.0.0 124.10.10.10
%Inconsistent address and mask
Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.224.0.0 124.10.10.10
%Inconsistent address and mask
Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.224.0.0 20.0.0.0
%Inconsistent address and mask
Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.192.0.0 20.0.0.0
%Inconsistent address and mask
Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.192.0.0 ser
Router(config)#ip route 124.10.10.12 255.192.0.0 serial 0/0/0

Never mind, I was suppose to add ip route 39.0.0.0 255.192.0.0 serial 0/0/0.

Not sure where you got that lab from, but I would point out that in the real world you would never use such a big network for a point to point link such as that serial connection.

Shouldn't it be ip route 39.20.0.0 255.252.0.0 serial 0/0/0?

A /14 mask would be 255.252.0.0. This would give you a block size of 4 in the 2nd octet. The network would be 39.20.0.0 (Network address) - 39.23.255.255 (Broadcast address)

That error message means that you are not using a network address (subnet ID)for your ip route.

ip route <NETWORK ADDRESS> <MASK> <NEXT HOP OR INTERFACE>

124.10.10.12 is an IP Address, the network address would be 124.0.0.0.
