building a network using pkt

The document outlines the steps taken by student Otaga Ilya to build a network using Packet Tracer, including connecting PCs to a router and switch, configuring interfaces, and testing connectivity. Successful pings between devices confirmed proper connections, and various commands were used to display routing and interface information. The document also discusses troubleshooting methods and the implications of incorrect configurations.

Student name: Otaga Ilya


Student no: CS-CNS09-25035

Week 2 assignment building network using


packet tracer
Step 1 connecting pc B to the router
steps:
1. Physical connection
Place pc and router on the working area
➢ assign a note to identify the pc as pc B
➢ use a copper straight through to connect pc B to the router

2 . configure router interfaces


➢ console into the router and enter privilege mode
➢ enter configuration mode config t
➢ assign a hostname to the device hostname R1 I
➢ enter the following command to configure the router to connect to pc
B
➢ set the banner message of the day to warn against unauthorized
access then show the status of the interface configured using show
interface brief command.
➢ Findings: the interface is correctly configured and is up

NOTE: i decided to configure the interfaces one by one for better


troubleshooting since initially both pcs were not reaching each other
and i couldn’t figure which interface was the problem.

3. Test connectivity

Steps:
➢ Tested the connectivity between pc B and router by pinging the
router on pc b cmd
Findings: the ping was successful hence connection is correct
➢ Step 3 configure the interface g0/0/1 to connect to switch then
connected the switch to the router via copper straight through

➢ Connect to pc A TO SWITCH using copper straight through

➢ Configure the ip configurations for pc A


➢ TEST CONNECTIVITY BETWEEN PC A and the router using ping
command: ping 192.168.1.1
➢ Findings: ping successful hence the connection is okey

4. Configure the switch

➢ Set switch name to S1


➢ No ip domain-lookup to prevent the switch from trying to resolve
wrong inputs.
➢ set the interface vlan 1 to given ip and enable no shutdown
➢ set the switch default gateway
Step 4: Verify connectivity end-to-end connectivity.
a. From PC-A, ping PC-B.
b. From S1, ping PC-B.
All the pings successful.
Fig 1 ping PC B from PC A

Fig 2 ping PC B from S1


Part 3: Display Device Information
In Part 3, you will use show commands to retrieve interface and routing
information from the router and switch.
Step 1: Display the routing table on the router.
Command: show ip route

What code is used in the routing table to indicate a directly connected


network? Both l and c
How many route entries are coded with a C code in the routing table?
2
What interface types are associated to the C coded routes?
GigabitEthernet0/0/0
GigabitEthernet0/0/1
b. Use the show ipv6 route command on router R1 to display the IPv6
routes.

Step 2: Display interface information on the router R1.


a. Use the show ip interface g0/0/1 to answer the following questions.
Command: show ip interface <int name>
Interface g0/0/0
Interface g0/0/1

What is the operational status of the G0/0/1 interface?.


GigabitEthernet0/0/1 is up, line protocol is up
What is the Media Access Control (MAC) address of the G0/1 interface?
is 00d0.bcca.d802
How is the Internet address displayed in this command?
Internet address is 192.168.1.1/24.
To see the IPv6 interface information, enter the show ipv6 interface
brief command on R1.
show ipv6 interface brief

. Enter the show ip interface brief command on the switch S1.


show ip interface brief

1. If the G0/0/1 interface showed that it was administratively down,


what interface configuration command would you use to turn the
interface up? Navigate to interface g0/0/1
no shutdown

2. What would happen if you had incorrectly configured interface G0/0/1 on the
router with an IP address of 192.168.1.2?
Pc A and pc B would not be able to communicate as all packet sent by A will not reach
the destination
