Example:
A network with three routers and three hosts, connected to the Internet through router1.
Hosts and addresses:
PC1 [Link], default gateway [Link]
PC2 [Link], default gateway [Link]
PC3 [Link], default gateway [Link]
Router1:
Interface 1 [Link] (public IP)
Interface 2 [Link]
Router2:
Interface 1 [Link]
Interface 2 [Link]
Router3:
Interface 1 [Link]
Interface 2 [Link]
If the routers do not use a Routing protocol to discover which network each router is connected
to, then the routing table of each router must be set up.
