Packet Tracer – Basic Switch and End Device Configuration

Addressing Table

Objectives

·         Configure hostnames and IP addresses on two Cisco Internetwork Operating System (IOS) switches using the command-line interface (CLI).

·         Use Cisco IOS commands to specify or limit access to the device configurations.

·         Use IOS commands to save the running configuration.

·         Configure two host devices with IP addresses.

·         Verify connectivity between the two PC end devices.

Scenario

As a recently hired LAN technician, your network manager has asked you to demonstrate your ability to configure a small LAN. Your tasks include configuring initial settings on two switches using the Cisco IOS and configuring IP address parameters on host devices to provide end-to-end connectivity. You are to use two switches and two hosts/PCs on a cabled and powered network.

Instructions

Configure the devices to fulfill the requirements below.

Requirements

·         Use a console connection to access each switch.

·         Name Class-A and Class-B switches.
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#hostname Class-A
Class-A(config)#
(Same way set Host Name for Class-B Switch also)

·         Use the R4Xe3 password for all lines.
Class-A(config)#line console 0
Class-A(config-line)#password R4Xe3
Class-A(config-line)#login
Class-A(config-line)#exit
Class-A(config)#line vty 0 15
Class-A(config-line)#password R4Xe3
Class-A(config-line)#login
(Same way configure on Class-B Switch also) 

·         Use the C4aJa secret password.
Class-A(config-line)# enable secret C4aJa
(Same way configure on Class-B Switch also) 

·         Encrypt all clear text passwords.
Class-A(config-line)# service password-encryption
(Same way configure on Class-B Switch also) 

·         Configure an appropriate message-of-the-day (MOTD) banner.
Class-A(config-line)# banner motd “Warning!!”
(Same way configure on Class-B Switch also) 

·         Configure addressing for all devices according to the Addressing Table.
Class-A(config)#interface vlan 1
Class-A(config-if)#ip address 128.107.20.10 255.255.255.0
Class-A(config-if)#no shutdown
(Same way configure on Class-B Switch also) 

·         Save your configurations.
Class-A# copy running-config startup-config
(Same way configure on Class-B Switch also) 

·         Verify connectivity between all devices.
