Title: Create LAN using Hub in Cisco Packet Tracer.

Objective:
 To connect multiple computers in a local area network (LAN) for communication.
 To configure IP addresses for devices to enable proper network connectivity.
 To learn and apply basic networking concepts using a hub.
 To facilitate testing of network connections using tools like the ping command.
 To develop foundational skills for understanding more complex networking setups.

Theory:
Cisco Packet Tracer is a tool built by Cisco and it provides network simulation to practice
simple and complex networks. The main purpose of Cisco Packet Tracer is to help students
learn the principles of networking and demonstrate the networking concepts..
A hub is a networking device that connects multiple devices together and broadcasts data to
all connected devices. Hubs are also known as repeaters or concentrators and are the center of
a local area network (LAN).

Procedure:
Step 1: Open the Cisco Packet Tracer.

Step 2: On opening Cisco packet tracer, click on End devices from bottom left icon menus,
Add four PCs and a hub into the screen of the simulator.

Step 3: Connect all PCs and hub with copper straight cable by selecting it through the cables
menu from the bottom left menus in the simulator. Green signal in the wire shows they’re
ready to communicate.

Step 4: Now, we’ve to give unique IP address to each PC. Click on each PC, go to Desktop
section and then click on IP configuration to give IP address.
IP Address Subnet Mask
192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0
192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0

192.168.1.4 255.255.255.0

Step 5: Click on a PC, go to Desktop and then click on Command prompt.

Step 6: After that test the ping command in command prompt to check the connectivity
between these PCs. For eg : ping 192.168.1.3

Step 7: If ping command works successfully, then it means all these PCs are able to
communicate and share data between them and we’ve build our network of four PCs and a
Hub successfully.

Conclusion:
We can use as many PC and hubs as we want to build network. We’ve to keep in mind to
give unique IP addresses to all the PCs and check the connectivity in the network by pinging
all the PCs from one another which helps us to consider our network successful.
