Packet Tracer

• In this lab, I used Cisco Packet Tracer version 8.1.1 to create a simple network, that I built in class, based on lab 1.1.

Hardware

The hardware I used in this lab in Packet Tracer is:

• 2960-24TT Switch (2x)
• 1841 Router (1x)
• Laptop (1x)
• Server (1x)

Physical Setup

• I placed all the hardware and connected the devices with straight through cables. On the switches an router, I connected the cables to the FastEthernet0/1 and FastEthernet0/2 ports.
• My physical setup looks like the following:

Device Configuration

• I configured the IP addresses according to the following Subnets:
  • Foster: 192.168.3.0/24
  • Skiff: 192.168.1.0/24
• I set the router address for foster to be 192.168.3.1 and for skiff: 192.168.1.1
• I configured the Laptop and Server to have .10 addresses for their respective network.

Traffic Analysis

• In simulation mode, I browsed to the server address from the web browser of the laptop.
• In the Capture/Forward window, I filtered for HTTP and TCP packets. This is what was shown after the connection was established.

Saving Router Configuration

1. Go back to Real-Time mode (clock)
2. From Router: Config Tab: Save NVRAM
3. Power Off Router- use power button on physical tab
4. Power back on
5. Use Fast Forward button to get links back
6. Check router config to make sure Interface IP's are still there
