Two routers with a switch between

If I have two routers and a switch in between them, how would I set them up?

If I have a little complicated scenario where the switch is on Router-On-Stick inter-vlan communication configuration via one of the router, and another router is to be talking to the other router with a dynamic routing protocol, what shall be some settings on these devices?

Do the ports that connect these two routers need any special settings? just as switchports? or not?

Thanks.

I'm not really following what your trying to configure here.

What routing protocol are you trying to use and what is it communicating with?
Maybe a diagram would help I'm not really sure. I think I would need a little more information about your scenario to try and help.

Good Luck.

You can do Inter-VLAN Routing (1 Router + 1 Switch), OSPF, EIGRP, HSRP, VRRP, and pretty much any routing (to play with STP, you'd need at least 1 more switch) that doesn't require a serial connection (e.g. Frame Relay, PPP, HDLC).

[EDIT] You can also plug the switch into your computer and connect your live equipment into GNS3 to add routers on the fly.

I have a memory of a fish.

Got R&S 2 years ago and Security 6 months ago, Wireless 2 months ago and Voice a month ago.
I'm on CCNP R&S but I suddenly had this question but didn't have the patience to think hard.
