Packet Tracer Exercise - Network Design
Exercise Scenario:
You are network administrators for a new office and need to design an internal network that
allows computers and other devices to communicate with each other. The network should be
divided into several subnets for management and maintenance purposes, and all equipment
needs to be connected in a structured way to allow communication between all PCs.
Your task is to design and implement the following network:
1. Device Connections:
● Create a connection between Router 1 and Switch 1 and Switch 2.
● Create a connection between Router 2 and Switch 3 and Switch 4.
● Each Switch should be connected to one PC only.
2. IP Addressing:
● Choose a base network.
● You must divide the network into 5 subnets to meet the following requirements:
● 4 subnets for connections between the Switches and Routers (each Switch will
connect to a PC and a Router).
● Each subnet must provide at least 25 usable IP addresses.
● 1 subnet for the WAN connection between the two Routers, requiring 2 usable
IP addresses.
3. IP Configuration:
● You need to assign an IP address and Subnet Mask to each device.
● Hint:
o Routers: Each router will get an appropriate IP address for each connected
interface.
o Switches: Each switch will receive an IP address from its assigned subnet.
o PCs: Each PC should be configured with an IP address and the Default
Gateway (the router’s IP it is connected to).
4. Configure The Routers/Switches.
● Assign a device name to the routers/switches. (Addressing Table)
● Disable DNS lookup to prevent the router from attempting to translate incorrectly
entered commands as though they were host names.
● Assign pingme as the privileged EXEC encrypted password.
● Assign testip as the console password and enable login.
● Assign testip as the VTY password and enable login.
● Encrypt the clear text passwords.
● Create a banner that warns anyone accessing the device that unauthorized access is
prohibited.
● Set up static routing between the routers to ensure communication between all
subnets. (ip route [[ ]כתובת רשת היעדSM [ ] של היעד2| )]כתובת ה בלי ציון! לשאול אם
צריך
● Set the clock on the router.
● Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.
5. Verify Your Configuration (for you!!)
Once you have completed the configuration, it is crucial to verify that all devices and
interfaces are correctly configured and communicating as expected. Use show
commands to validate your setup.
6. Connectivity Testing:
● Use the ping command to ensure all devices can communicate with each other,
including communication between the PCs and the ability to route traffic to other
subnets through the routers.
● If there are connectivity issues, check the configuration settings.
GOOD LUCK! 😊
