I am trying to use one router to work between two networks.

The book tells me how to route between routers but not how to get the router to forward between networks.

They both have different ip addresses and the networks are running basic hubs.

Any help would be great as I have been asked to demonstrate this to some students.

Thanks for any help

On Ethernet0/0 (or whatever you have) on your router you would add an ip address from both networks. the second ip address added needs to have the "secondary" keyword added to the end of the command.

i.e.....

interface FastEthernet0/0
description Connection to 2 networks
ip address 206.99.1.1 255.255.255.0
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 secondary

and

router1#show ip route connected
C 206.99.1.1/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0
C 192.168.1.1/24 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0

now you can route between networks.
