Background / Preparation
This lab focuses on the basic VLAN configuration of the Cisco 2960 switch (or similar) using Cisco IOS
commands. The information in this lab applies to other switches; however, command syntax may vary.
Depending upon the switch model, the interface designations may differ. For example, modular switches have
multiple slots; therefore, the Fast Ethernet ports may be FastEthernet 0/1 or FastEthernet 1/1, depending on
the slot and port. The router used can be any router.
The following resources are required:
• One Cisco 2960 switch or equivalent switch
• One Cisco 1841 router or equivalent
• Two Windows-based PCs with a terminal emulation program
• At least one RJ-45-to-DB-9 connector console cable to configure the switch and the router
• Three straight-through Ethernet cables to connect from the PCs to Switch 1
NOTE: Make sure that the router and all the switches have been erased and have no startup configurations.
For detailed instructions, refer to the Lab Manual that is located on Academy Connection in the Tools section.
NOTE: SDM Routers – If the startup-config is erased in an SDM router, SDM will no longer come up by
default when the router is restarted. It will be necessary to build a basic router configuration using IOS
commands. Contact your instructor if necessary.

Step 1: Connect the equipment


a. Connect the router Fa0/0 interface with a straight-through cable to Switch 1 Fa0/8 interface.
b. Connect the Host 1a Ethernet interface with a straight-through cable to Switch 1 Fa0/2 interface.
c. Connect the Host 1b Ethernet interface with a straight-through cable to Switch 1 Fa0/3 interface.
d. Connect a PC with a console cable to perform configurations on the router and switch.
e. Configure IP addresses on the hosts as shown in the chart.

Step 2: Perform basic configuration on the router


a. Connect a PC to the console port of the router to perform configurations using a terminal emulation
program.
b. Configure Router 1 with a hostname, console, Telnet, and privileged passwords according to the
table.
c. Configure the Fa0/0 interface IP address and mask according to the table.

Step 3: Configure Switch 1


a. Configure S1 hostname and passwords.
b. Configure Switch 1 with a hostname and console, Telnet, and privileged passwords according to the
addressing table.
c. Configure S1 with an IP address and default gateway.
S1(config)#interface vlan1
S1(config-if)#ip address 172.16.1.2 255.255.255.0
S1(config-if)#no shutdown
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.1.1

S1(config)#end

Step 4: Verify connectivity and default VLAN configuration


a. Verify LAN connectivity by pinging from the router to the switch and the hosts. Also verify that you can
ping from host to host.
b. Verify default VLAN configuration with the show vlan command on S1.
S1#show vlan
Are all switch ports assigned to VLAN 1? __________

Step 5: Configure VLANs on S1


a. Create and name two additional VLANs on S1.
S1(config)#vlan 20
S1(config-vlan)#name fred
S1(config-vlan)#exit
S1(config)#vlan 30
S1(config-vlan)#name wilma
S1(config-vlan)#exit
b. Verify the creation of the new VLANs with the show vlan command.
S1#show vlan
Do the new VLANs appear in the output? ___________
What interfaces belong to the new VLANs? __________
c. Assign interfaces to VLANs. Assign S1 port Fa0/2 to VLAN 20 and ports Fa0/3 – Fa0/8 to VLAN 30.
S1(config)#interface fastethernet 0/2
S1(config-if)#switchport mode access
S1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#interface range fastethernet 0/3 - 8
S1(config-if-range)#switchport mode access
S1(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan 30
S1(config-if-range)#end
S1#show running-config
Observe that the switchport access command was applied to ports Fa0/2 – Fa0/8.
d. Verify the port assignments of the new VLANs with the show vlan command.
S1#show vlan
Which interfaces now belong to VLAN 1? ____________________
Which interfaces belong to VLAN 20? _______________________
Which interfaces belong to VLAN 30? _______________________
e. Other commands can be used to show different amounts of information or specific pieces of
information. Enter the following commands on S1 and observe the output:
S1#show vlan brief
Is all of the basic VLAN membership information shown? __________
S1#show vlan id 30
What information is shown? ____________________
S1#show vlan name fred

What information is shown? ____________________

Step 6: Verify VLAN segmentation


In the previous step, the ports connected to R1 and Host 1b were placed in one VLAN and Host 1a was
placed in another. Even though these hosts are connected to one switch, it appears as if there are two
separate switches. Connectivity tests will prove this.
a. Ping from Host 1b to R1.
Were the pings successful? __________
b. Ping from Host 1b to Host 1a.
Were the pings successful? __________
c. Ping from Host 1a to R1.
Were the pings successful? __________
Why were some pings successful and others not?
____________________________________________________________________________
How could Host 1b communicate with Host 1a in different VLAN?
______________________________________________________________

Step 7: Change and delete VLAN configurations


a. Reassign S1 port Fa0/3 to VLAN 20.
S1(config)#interface Fa0/3
S1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
S1(config)#end
S1#show vlan
Does the output reflect the VLAN membership change? __________
b. Remove VLAN 30.
Which two commands would be used to delete all VLAN configuration and return to the default
configuration?
_________________________________________________________________________

Step 8: Reflection
a. Why would VLANs be configured in a network?
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
b. What must be set up to communicate between VLANS?
________________________________________________________________
c. With no configuration, what VLAN are all ports a member of?
___________________________________________________________
