Lab - Design and Build a Small Network

Design and build a network from scratch.


o Your design must include a minimum of one Cisco 4321 router, two Cisco 2960 switches, and two
PCs.
o Fully configure the network and use IPv4 or IPv6 (subnetting must be included as a part of your
addressing scheme).
o Verify the network using at least five show commands.
o Secure the network using SSH, secure passwords and console passwords (minimum).

Create a rubric to use for informal peer grading. Present your Capstone Project to the class and be able to
answer questions from your peers and Instructor!

Required Resources
 Packet Tracer
 Student/group-created rubric for assessment of the assignment

Reflection
1. What was the most difficult portion of this activity?

-> Maybe it's just commands


2. Why do you think network documentation is so important to this activity and in the real world?

-> Documentation is imperative to good network management and without it,


network administrators have to recreate topologies, physically check addressing,
etc. This takes time, which could be used elsewhere.
