Administration

Experiment-1
1. Aim/Overview of the practical:
Troubleshooting- Perform and Document Fault Isolation, Resolve or Escalate,
Verify and Monitor Resolution.

2. Task to be done:
• Fault Isolation: Identify the network issue by testing connectivity (using ping)
and checking cables and device configurations.
• Resolve or Escalate: Fix the problem if possible, or escalate if it's beyond your
control.
• Verify and Monitor: Test the network after resolving the issue and monitor to
ensure stability. Document the steps and solution.

3. Steps/Commands involved to perform practical:

Steps to create a network


Required Components:

• 1 Router

• 2 Switches

• 4 PCs

• Ethernet cables

Step 1: Physical Setup

1. Connect the Router to Switch 1

Use an Ethernet cable to connect one of the router's LAN ports to a port on Switch 1.

2. Connect Switch 1 to Switch 2

Use another Ethernet cable to connect a port on Switch 1 to a port on Switch 2.

3. Connect PCs to Switches

Connect 2 PCs to Switch 1 and 2 PCs to Switch 2 using Ethernet cables.


Step 2: Configure IP Addresses

Each device in the network needs an IP address. Use the following IP address scheme:

Router:

IP Address: 192.168.1.1

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

PCs: (Manually configure or use DHCP from the

router) PC1: 192.168.1.2

PC2: 192.168.1.3

PC3: 192.168.2.2

PC4: 192.168.2.3

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (Router’s IP)

Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1 (Router’s IP)


Step 4: Test Network Connectivity

Use the ping command to verify communication:

ping 192.168.1.1 (To check connectivity with the

router) ping 192.168.1.3 (To check connectivity with

another PC) If responses are received, the network is

working.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:

• Understanding Network Topology – Learn how devices like switches,


routers, and PCs interconnect in a Local Area Network (LAN).

• Configuring Network Devices – Gain hands-on experience in setting


up and connecting switches, routers, and end devices.

• IP Addressing and Subnetting – Learn how to assign IP addresses, configure


subnet masks, and set default gateways for network communication.
