1.​ AIM: Design and implement a small LAN based network with class C addressing
using CISCO Packet Tracer.

2.​ SOFTWARE (TOOLS/PACKAGES) REQUIRED : CISCO Packet Tracer

3.​ THEORY: A local area network (LAN) is a collection of devices comprising of


cables, access points, switches, routers, and other components connected together in
one physical location, such as a building, office, or home. A LAN can be small or
large, ranging from a home network with one user to an enterprise network with
thousands of users and devices in an office or school.
Regardless of size, a LAN's single defining characteristic is that it connects devices
that are in a single, limited area. In contrast, a wide area network (WAN) or
metropolitan area network (MAN) covers larger geographic areas. Some WANs and
MANs connect many LANs together.

The advantages of a LAN are the same as those for any group of devices networked
together. The devices can use a single Internet connection, share files with one
another, print to shared printers, and be accessed and even controlled by one another.

In general, there are two types of LANs: client/server LANs and peer-to-peer LANs.

A client/server LAN consists of several devices (the clients) connected to a central


server. The server manages file storage, application access, device access, and
network traffic. A client can be any connected device that runs or accesses
applications or the Internet. The clients connect to the server either with cables or
through wireless connections.

A peer-to-peer LAN doesn't have a central server and cannot handle heavy workloads
like a client/server LAN can, and so they're typically smaller. On a peer-to-peer LAN,
each device shares equally in the functioning of the network. The devices share
resources and data through wired or wireless connections to a switch or router. Most
home networks are peer-to-peer.
Typical LAN Network Design:

Cisco Packet Tracer: Cisco Packet Tracer is a comprehensive networking technology


teaching and learning tool that offers a unique combination of realistic simulation and
visualization experiences, assessment, activity authoring capabilities, and multiuser
collaboration and competition opportunities. Innovative features of Packet Tracer will
help students and teachers collaborate, solve problems, and learn concepts in an
engaging and dynamic social environment.

Benefits of Cisco Packet Tracer are:

●​ Provides a realistic simulation and visualization learning environment that


supplements classroom equipment, including the ability to see internal processes in
real-time that are normally hidden on real devices
●​ Enables multi-user, real-time collaboration and competition for dynamic learning
●​ Enables authoring and localization of structured learning activities such as labs,
demonstrations, quizzes, exams, and games
●​ Empowers​ students​ to​ explore​ concepts,​ conduct​ experiments,​ and​ test​
their understanding of network building
●​ Allows students and teachers to design, build, configure, and troubleshoot complex
networks using virtual equipment
●​ Supports a variety of teaching and learning opportunities such as lectures, group, and
individual labs, homework, games, and competitions
●​ Supports feature expansion through external applications using an API to enhance
Cisco Packet Tracer's functionality in areas such as curriculum and assessment
delivery, games, accessibility, and interfacing with real equipment.
