Performance Assessment - Help-2
This guide is provided to assist you with the tasks in the Performance Assessment-Review. Use this guide
to help you with the Performance Assessment when you get stuck with creating your network. You can
also use this if you need help with the entire performance assessment.
10.25.0.0/16
You will notice that everything shows up with red lights and that is okay. Nothing will turn
green until you have programmed the routers.
These are all the devices we will work with in this assessment.
Ther are a total of four 2960 switches, 12 PCs, and four servers. The four servers are named:
RADIUS, BIS_Server, SLC_Server, and THCA_Server.
1. Let’s Configure Switch0 to Sw1.
Make sure you change the hostname to Sw1.
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:
no
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#hostname Sw1
Sw1(config)#interface range f0/1-5
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport mode access
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan 10
Sw1(config)#interface range f0/6-10
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport mode access
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan 20
Sw1(config)#interface range f0/11-15
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport mode access
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan 30
Sw1(config)#interface range f0/16-20
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport mode access
Sw1(config-if-range)#switchport access vlan 40
Sw1(config-if-range)# interface range g0/1-2
Sw1(config-if-range)# switchport mode trunk
2. Now setup and program Sw2-4 the same way you did Sw1. Make sure you create the
correct hostname on the switches accordingly.
You will notice that the switches, PCs, and server all turned green meaning they are ready. This
is because no programming is required for these systems to work on the network.
3. Router Configuration
Now you will need to go in and program each of the routers.
Click on the R1 router and go to the CLI tab. This is the command line interface which you will
be using to program your routers.
You may need to type the enter key a couple of time to wake the system up.
You will now see the router prompt for the system
Type the command enable in order to enter privileged mode. You can tell you are in privileged
mode because the prompt turned to a # symbol.
Type the command configure terminal and then hostname with the name of the router (R1)
You will notice the prompt will change to the name you have given your system. This is
important so you can keep your systems straight as you are programming them.
Now you will go through each of your routers and program the information for each interface.

Use the table above to configure R2. You will need to get into global configuration mode
first like you did already for R1.

Verify that you can ping from one router to another by typing the following on R1
R1# ping 10.25.5.9
SLC Server-
IP Address- 10.25.2.66
Subnet Mask- 255.255.255.192
Default Gateway- 10.25.2.65
THCA Server-
IP Address- 10.25.2.130
Subnet Mask- 255.255.255.192
Default Gateway- 10.25.2.129
RADIUS Server-
IP Address- 10.25.2.194
Subnet Mask- 255.255.255.192
Default Gateway- 10.25.2.193
The reason you give a static IP address to your servers is so other systems can refer to them
using this address and it will never change.
b. Creating DHCP Pools on Server
Now you will set up the DCHP pools for your PCs and laptops.
i. In your RADIUS Server select the Services tab and select the DHCP
service.
You will see that you already have one address pool assigned that will be for your server
network.
iii. Change the serverPool information to the following:
Default Gateway: 10.25.2.1
DNS server: 10.25.2.10
Start IP address 10.25.2.11
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.192
TFTP server: 10.25.2.10
iv. Press the save button to update the DHCP pool. You will see the
serverPool parameters change to the new information.
Pool Name: 30
Default Gateway: 10.25.3.49
DNS server: 10.25.2.10
Start IP address 10.25.3.50
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.240
TFTP server: 10.25.2.10
Pool Name: 40
Default Gateway: 10.25.3.65
DNS server: 10.25.2.10
Start IP address 10.25.3.66
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.248
TFTP server: 10.25.2.10
i. Update R3 router
Only one other thing to do is to add a helper addresses into the R3 router.
R3(config)# interface G0/0/0.10
R3(config-int)# ip helper-address 10.25.2.194
R3(config)# interface G0/0/0.20
R3(config-int)# ip helper-address 10.25.2.194
R3(config)# interface G0/0/0.30
R3(config-int)# ip helper-address 10.25.2.194
R3(config)# interface G0/0/0.40
R3(config-int)# ip helper-address 10.25.2.194
You should now be able to go into your PCs, desktop tab and select IP configuration.
Change your IP configuration to DHCP. Your PCs should now be able to pull a DHCP address
from your server.
If it doesn’t work check to make sure you can ping the server for your R2 router. If you can
there is another problem you will need to troubleshoot.
Troubleshooting your DHCP problems can be difficult. So, you need to sectionalize the problem.
First check to make sure your pools on your server is correct. If any of your addresses
are incorrect it will not work.
Next check to make sure your helper-address on your router is correct. You can do this
by typing show run on your router and checking your G0/0 interface. It should show the
IP address of your server.
Lastly, check to see if your DHCP service is turned on. By default, the service is off and
you must turn the service on for it to work.
Check your system by pinging from PC2 to your server.
You will be using the Multiuser link to connect your corporate office through
the Internet. First, make sure you have the multiuser connection on your
packet tracer network. This icon looks like a cloud with three lines in it (not
the cloud without them).
Select your ports of G0/0/0 and G0/0/1 on the R1 router and the G0/0/1 on
the R3 router. These are the ports that will be available for connection to
external users.
Open you Tier1Network and verify that you have the following network
You should now have two networks open on your screen at the same time
Verify the port number of your Tier1 Network by looking at the listen page of
the multiuser dropdown menu. Write your port number below.
Click on the Multiuser cloud and type localhost and Peer port number for
your tier1 network. You should use the Peer name of Peer20 on your
connection.
Click the connect button. You should now see the Peer connection cloud
appear on the packet tracer screen as green or blue.
Wait for the connection to turn green on both sides. If the connect stays red
you may need to disconnect and reconnect the cable going to the cloud.
Select the link at the top of the cloud, not create a new link so you can
connect to the system on the other side of the link.
Now you are going to connect from your network into the Internet network using the multiuser cloud.
Click on your multiuser cloud and select outgoing connection. Add the Peer address of localhost, the
peer port number of 38001 (it may be 38000) and the peer network name of Peer20.
You may also need to disconnect and reconnect the cable going to your cloud if it doesn’t turn green
reconnect with the link at the top (Link 0) not with create new link
Ping the Tier1 Network server with one of your PCs. It is okay if you get a timeout
(or even two) to start the process.
