Objectives

Part 1: Set Up the Topology


Part 2: Configure Devices and Verify Connectivity
Part 3: Display Device Information

Background / Scenario
This is a comprehensive activity to review the IOS commands you have learned. In this Packet Tracer
Physical Mode (PTPM) activity, you will cable the equipment as shown in the topology diagram. You
will then configure the devices to match the addressing table. After the configurations have been
saved, you will verify your configurations by testing for network connectivity.
After the devices have been configured and network connectivity has been verified, you will use IOS
commands to retrieve information from the devices to answer questions about your network
equipment.
This activity provides minimal assistance with the commands necessary to configure the router. Test
your knowledge by trying to configure the devices without referring to the course content or the
previous activities.

Instructions

Part 1: Set Up the Topology


a. Move the required router and switch from the Shelf to the Rack.
b. Move the required PCs from the Shelf to the Table.
c. Cable the devices, as shown in the Topology and the Addressing Table.
d. Power on all the devices.

Part 2: Configure Devices and Verify Connectivity


In this part, you will set up the network topology and configure basic settings, such as the interface IP
addresses, device access, and passwords. Refer to the Topology and Addressing Table at the
beginning of this activity for device names and address information.

Step 1: Assign static IP information to the PC interfaces.


a. On PC-A, configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings.
b. On PC-B, configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings.
c. From a command prompt window on PC-A, ping PC-B.
Question:

Why were the pings not successful?


The router interfaces (default gateways) have not been configured yet so Layer 3
traffic is not being routed between subnets.

Step 2: Configure the router.


a. Console into the router and enable privileged EXEC mode.
Open configuration window

b. Enter configuration mode.


c. Assign the device name to the router.
d. Assign class as the privileged EXEC encrypted password.
e. Assign cisco as the console password and enable login.
f. Assign cisco as the vty password and enable login.
g. Encrypt the plaintext passwords.
h. Create a banner that warns anyone accessing the device that unauthorized access is prohibited.
i. Configure and activate both interfaces on the router.
j. Configure an interface description for each interface indicating which device is connected to it.
k. To enable IPv6 routing, enter the ipv6 unicast-routing command.
l. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.
m. Set the clock on the router.
Note: Use the question mark (?) to help with the correct sequence of parameters needed to
execute this command.
Close configuration window

n. From a command prompt window on PC-A, ping PC-B.


Note: If pings are not successful, the Windows Firewall may need to be turned off.
Question:

Were the pings successful? Explain.


Yes. The router is routing traffic across the two subnets. The default settings for the 2960 switch
will automatically turn up the interfaces that are connected to devices.

Step 3: Configure the switch.


In this step, you will configure the hostname, the VLAN 1 interface, and its default gateway.
Open configuration window

a. Console into the switch and enable privileged EXEC mode.


b. Enter configuration mode.
c. Assign a device name to the switch.
d. Configure and activate the VLAN interface on the switch S1.
e. Configure the default gateway for the switch S1.
f. Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.

Step 4: Verify connectivity end-to-end connectivity.


a. From PC-A, ping PC-B.
b. From S1, ping PC-B.
All the pings should be successful.
Close configuration window

Part 3: Display Device Information


In Part 3, you will use show commands to retrieve interface and routing information from the router
and switch.

Step 1: Display the routing table on the router.


a. Use the show ip route command on R1 to answer the following questions.
Open configuration window
Questions:
What code is used in the routing table to indicate a directly connected network?
The C designates a directly connected subnet. An L designates a local interface. Both answers are
correct.
How many route entries are coded with a C code in the routing table?
2
What interface types are associated to the C coded routes?
Answers may vary depending on the router type, but on the 4221 the correct answer is G0/0/0 and
G0/0/1.
b. Use the show ipv6 route command on R1 to display the IPv6 routes.

Step 2: Display interface information on R1.


a. Use the show interface g0/0/1 to answer the following questions.
Questions:

What is the operational status of the G0/0/1 interface?


GigabitEthernet0/0/1 is up, line protocol is up
What is the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the G0/1 interface?
0060.4731.8102
How is the internet address displayed in this command?
Internet address is 192.168.1.1/24.
b. For the IPv6 information, enter the show ipv6 interface interface command.

Step 3: Display a summary list of the interfaces on the router and switch.
There are several commands that can be used to verify an interface configuration. One of the most
useful is the show ip interface brief command. The command output displays a summary list of the
interfaces on the device and provides immediate feedback about the status of each interface.
a. Enter the show ip interface brief command on R1.
R1# show ip interface brief
b. Enter the show ipv6 interface brief command on R1 to see the IPv6 interface information.
R1# show ipv6 interface brief
Close configuration window

c. Enter the show ip interface brief command on S1.


Open configuration window

S1# show ip interface brief


Close configuration window

Reflection Questions
1. If the G0/0/1 interface showed that it was administratively down, what interface configuration
command would you use to bring the interface up?
R1(config-if)# no shutdown
2. What would happen if you had incorrectly configured interface G0/0/1 on the router with an IP
address of 192.168.1.2?
PC-A would not be able to ping PC-B. This is because PC-B is on a different network than PC-A,
which requires the default-gateway router to route these packets. PC-A is configured to use the IP
address of 192.168.1.1 for the default-gateway router, but this address is not assigned to any
device on the LAN. Any packets that need to be sent to the default-gateway for routing will never
reach their destination.
