passive-interface GigabitEthernet0/1 

ACL (Access Control List)

access-list 100 deny tcp any any eq 23 
access-list 100 permit ip any any 
interface GigabitEthernet0/0 
ip access-group 100 in 

DHCP Configuration

access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 
interface GigabitEthernet0/0 
ip nat inside 
interface GigabitEthernet0/1 
ip nat outside 

HSRP (Hot Standby Router Protocol)

interface GigabitEthernet0/0 
standby 1 ip 192.168.1.254 
standby 1 priority 110 
standby 1 preempt 

EIGRP & RIP Configuration

router eigrp 100 
network 192.168.1.0 
network 10.1.10.0 
no auto-summary

router rip 
version 2 
network 192.168.1.0 
no auto-summary 

Verification Commands

show ip route 
show running-config 
show interfaces 
show ip protocols 
show access-lists 
show ip nat translations 

What Undercode Say:

Mastering Cisco router commands is essential for network security and efficiency. Automation (Python + Netmiko) can streamline these tasks, but manual CLI expertise remains critical for troubleshooting. Future networks will integrate AI-driven routing, but foundational CCNA skills will always be relevant.

Prediction:

As SD-WAN and cloud networking grow, traditional CLI-based routing will merge with API-driven automation. However, CCNA knowledge will remain a cornerstone for network engineers.

Expected Output:

Router1 show ip route 
Codes: L - local, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP 
D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area 
Gateway of last resort is 192.168.1.254 to network 0.0.0.0
