Case Study CCNA 1 (DI2014) – Introduction to Networks

Topology

Assessment Objectives
Part 1: Develop an IP Addressing Scheme
Part 2: Initialize and Reload Devices
Part 3: Configure Device IP address and Security Settings
Part 4: Test and Verify IPv4 and IPv6 End-to-End Connectivity
Part 5: Use the IOS CLI to Gather Device Information

Scenario
In this Case Study you will cable and configure the devices in a small network. You must configure a router,
switch and PCs to support both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity. You will configure security, including SSH, on the
router. In addition, you will test and document the network using common CLI commands.

Required Resources
• 1 Router (Cisco 1941 with IOS Release 15.2(4)M3 universal image or comparable)
• 1 Switch (Cisco 2960 with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2) lanbasek9 image or comparable)
• 2 PCs (Windows with a terminal emulation program, such as Tera Term)

• Console cables to configure the Cisco IOS devices via the console ports
• Ethernet cables as shown in the topology

Instructions

Part 1: Develop an IP Addressing Scheme

Prepare this before you attend to your scheduled time for the Case Study.
a. You’re assigned the IPv4 network below. You will subnet it to provide IP addresses to two subnets that
will support the required number of hosts. No subnet calculators may be used. All work must be shown
using the IP Addressing worksheet below.

Before proceeding, verify your IP addressing scheme with the instructor.
Instructor Sign-off Part 1:

Part 2: Initialize and Reload Devices

• Cable your network according to the topology picture above.
• If the devices are configured, erase the startup configurations and VLANs from the router and switch and
reload the devices.
• After the switch is reloaded, change the SDM template to one that supports IPv6 as necessary, and
reload the switch again.

Part 3: Configure Device IP Address and Security Settings

Step 1: Configure R1.

Part 4: Test and Verify End-to-End Connectivity

Use the ping command to test IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity between all network devices.
Note: If pings to host computers fail, temporarily disable the computer firewall and retest.
Use the following table to methodically verify connectivity with each network device. Take corrective action to
establish connectivity if a test fails:

Part 6: Cleanup
NOTE: DO NOT PROCEED WITH CLEANUP UNTIL YOUR INSTRUCTOR HAS GRADED YOUR SKILLS
EXAM AND HAS INFORMED YOU THAT YOU MAY BEGIN CLEANUP.
Unless directed otherwise by the instructor, restore host computer network connectivity, and then turn off
power to the host computers.
Before turning off power to the router and switch, remove the NVRAM configuration files (if saved) from both
devices.
Disconnect and neatly put away all LAN cables that were used in the Final.
