Lab 1 - JuliaLightCNCS/Net-150 GitHub Wiki

In this lab we used command prompt to do a few different tasks. This was a nice review for me from my senior year in high school.

### Network Discovery Lab Part 1

On the top of your VMware Workstation Window, there is a tab titled “VM” Click “VM” and go to “Settings” Select the Network Adapter setting and change the network connection from NAT to Bridged. Go to the search bar of your vm and search for Windows Firewall. On the left of the firewall options window there should be an option to Turn Windows Firewall On or Off Select OFF for both Private and Public Network Settings. (Turn back on once lab is complete!!) Open a command prompt on your computer Run the command ipconfig

Fill in the following information for your Ethernet Adapter (1 Point): IPv4 Address Subnet Mask Default Gateway

Run the command ipconfig /all. Fill in the following information: (1 Point) Physical Address(of your active port): DNS Servers:

To test connectivity, we often use the ping Ping the IPv4 address of your default gateway i.e. ping 192.168.0.1 where 192.168.0.1 is the address you wrote down in 8-3.

Take Screenshot of Successful Ping of Default Gateway (1 Point) Now test connectivity to an outside source. Run the command ping www.google.com.

Take Screenshot of Successful Ping of www.google.com (1 Point)

  1. Ping the IP address of the person to your right or left. How are the results different from pinging Google?(1 Point)

### Network Discovery Lab Part 2

In computer networks a diagnostic tool for displaying the route (path) and measuring transit delays of packets across an Internet Protocol (IP) network is traceroute. This is an effective, easy and simple command tool Network Administrators have at their disposal for quick and easy initial diagnosis of their networks.

Run the command tracert www.google.com (Links to an external site.) (in Unix-like OS this is traceroute). This command will report each router encountered between your workstation and google.com How many hops were there between you and google? What are the names of the routers? (1 Point) Add screen capture.

Run the command nslookup. This command line tool is used to querying the Domain Name System (DNS) to obtain domain name or IP address mapping or for any other specific DNS record. This should leave you with a prompt of “>”.

Answer the following: (1 point) Add screen capture Type bing.com How many IP addresses are assigned to bing.com? Take a screenshot of the cmd window and submit.

Type www.champlain.edu. (Links to an external site.) How many IP addresses are assigned to champlain.edu? Take a screenshot of the cmd window and paste below.
