EXPERIMENT- 1

Aim: Study of basic network command and Network configuration commands.

Apparatus (Software): Command Prompt And Packet Tracer.

Procedure: To do this EXPERIMENT- follows these steps:

In this EXPERIMENT- students have to understand basic networking commands e.g ping, tracert etc.

All commands related to Network configuration which includes how to switch to privilege mode and
normal mode and how to configure router interface and how to save this configuration to flash
memory or permanent memory.

This commands includes

 Configuring the Router commands


 General Commands to configure network
 Privileged Mode commands of a router
 Router Processes & Statistics
 IP Commands
 Other IP Commands e.g. show ip route etc.

ping:

ping(8) sends an ICMP ECHO_REQUEST packet to the specified host. If the host responds, you get
an ICMP packet back. Sound strange? Well, you can “ping” an IP address to see if a machine is
alive. If there is no response, you know something is wrong.
Traceroute:

Tracert is a command which can show you the path a packet of information takes from your
computer to one you specify. It will list all the routers it passes through until it reaches its
destination, or fails to and is discarded. In addition to this, it will tell you how long each 'hop' from
router to router takes.

nslookup:

Displays information from Domain Name System (DNS) name servers.


NOTE : If you write the command as above it shows as default your pc's server name firstly.

pathping:

A better version of tracert that gives you statics about packet lost and latency.
Getting Help

In any command mode, you can get a list of available commands by entering a question mark (?).

Router>?

To obtain a list of commands that begin with a particular character sequence, type in those
haracters followed immediately by the question mark (?).

Router#co?

configure connect copy


To list keywords or arguments, enter a question mark in place of a keyword or argument. Include a
space before the question mark.

Router#configure ?

memory Configure from NV memory network


Configure from a TFTP network host terminal
Configure from the terminal
You can also abbreviate commands and keywords by entering just enough characters to make the
command unique from other commands. For example, you can abbreviate the show command to
sh.

Configuration Files

Any time you make changes to the router configuration, you must save the changes to memory
because if you do not they will be lost if there is a system reload or power outage. There are two
types of configuration files: the running (current operating) configuration and the startup
configuration.
Use the following privileged mode commands to work with configuration files.

• configure terminal – modify the running configuration manually from the terminal.

• show running-config – display the running configuration.


• show startup-config – display the startup configuration.

• copy running-config startup-config – copy the running configuration to the startup


configuration.

• copy startup-config running-config – copy the startup configuration to the running


configuration.

• erase startup-config – erase the startup-configuration in NVRAM.

• copy tftp running-config – load a configuration file stored on a Trivial File


Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server into the running configuration.

• copy running-config tftp – store the running configuration on a TFTP server.

IP Address Configuration

Take the following steps to configure the IP address of an interface.


Step 1: Enter privileged EXEC mode:

Router>enable password

Step 2: Enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode. Router#config

terminal

Step 3: Enter the interface type slot/port (for Cisco 7000 series) or interface type port (for Cisco
2500 series) to enter the interface configuration mode.

Example:
Router (config)#interface ethernet 0/1
Step 4: Enter the IP address and subnet mask of the interface using the ip address ipaddress
subnetmask command.

Example,
Router (config-if)#ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0

Step 5: Exit the configuration mode by pressing Ctrl-Z


Router(config-if)#[Ctrl-Z]
