Packet Tracer For Beginners Tutorial Part 1

The document provides instructions for setting up a basic network in Packet Tracer, including dragging and dropping a PC, server, and switch into the workspace. It then guides the user to connect these devices with cables, configure their IP addresses to be on the same subnet, and set up basic services like FTP on the server so that the PC can ping the server and access its web page. The goal is to demonstrate a simple local network connection between a client and server using Packet Tracer.
