1. Aim/Overview of the practical:


To know the basics of Packet Tracer functionality

2. Apparatus: PC, Cisco Packet Tracer

3. Theory:

Cisco Packet Tracer is a powerful network simulation tool designed for learning, practicing,
and visualizing network configurations. Developed by Cisco, it allows users to create virtual
network topologies and simulate their operations. The tool supports a range of devices,
including routers, switches, and PCs, enabling users to configure, troubleshoot, and test
networks in a risk-free environment. Packet Tracer is widely used in networking education
and certifications, such as Cisco's CCNA, offering interactive tutorials and real-world
scenarios. Its user-friendly interface and extensive feature set make it an essential resource
for students and professionals aiming to master networking concepts. Following are the basic
Networking devices used in the creation of a network:

● Router: A device that connects multiple networks, directing data packets between
them using IP addresses. It enables internet access and ensures data reaches its
destination.
● Switch: A device that connects multiple devices within a local network (LAN) and
efficiently forwards data based on MAC addresses.
● Hub: A basic network device that connects multiple devices in a LAN, broadcasting
data to all devices regardless of the intended recipient.

4. Steps for experiment/practical:

● Open Cisco Packet Tracer: Launch the application and create a new workspace.
● Add Devices: Drag and drop 4 PCs, 2 switches, and 1 router from the device menu onto
the workspace.
● Connect Devices:
o Use the copper straight-through cable to connect:

▪ PC1 and PC2 to Switch1.

▪ PC3 and PC4 to Switch2.

o Use copper straight-through cable to connect Switch1 and Switch2 to the router's
appropriate Ethernet interfaces.
● Open each PC, go to Desktop > IP Configuration, and assign:
o IP address (within the subnet of the connected router interface).
o Subnet mask.
o Default gateway (router's interface IP).

6.Result/Output/Writing Summary:

I have successfully implemented two small LANs using switches and then I connected those
two LANs using a router such that I can send information from LAN1 to LAN2. I have also
implemented Hub to broadcast information between two devices.

Learning outcomes (What I have learnt):

1. I have learnt the concepts in Cisco Packet Tracer.


2. I have learnt to implement different network devices in Packet Tracer such as switches
and routers.
3. I have learnt about how to assign IP addresses, subnet masks and default gateways to
the devices in Packet tracer.
4. I have learnt the use of different types of cables in Packet tracer such as
straight-through and crossover cables.
5. I have learnt to connect two different networks using a router.
