    Create a default route on the border router. Check the NAT configuration and network addresses.

    Explanation:

    The LAN or local area network is a network meant for a small geographic area, ranging from a small home office to office building.

    For a LAN to be connected to the internet, it is subscribed to a ISP. The ISP provides the internet / global WAN resources to the LAN. The border router or stub is configured with a gateway of last resort or default route to route packets to the WAN network and a Network address translation, NAT, is used for a large LAN.

    The syntax for default route configuration on the border router is;

    Router (config) # IP route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 s0/0/1
