The lab for this chapter consists of vIOS devices to simplify device configuration. We will use the same lab for this and the next chapters. The topology visual is as follows:

Device Management IP Loopback IP
r1 192.168.2.218 192.168.0.1
r2 192.168.2.219 192.168.0.2

r5 192.168.2.221 192.168.0.4
r6 192.168.2.222 192.168.0.5

Device Name External Link Eth0 Internal IP Eth1
Client 192.168.2.211 10.0.0.9

cisco@Client:~$ sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.2.211 netmask 255.255.255.0
cisco@Client:~$ sudo route add default gw 192...
