Building the Network in Packet Tracer

  1. Configure the Edge Switches

  • Add VLANs to the VLAN database

    • VLANs 100 and 110 to all
    • VLAN 130 (Lab1) in East-02 switch only
    • VLAN 140 (Lab2) in West-02 switch only

  • Configure Ports on Edge Switches (Using CLI)

    • VLAN 100 (FacStaff) on ports 4-12 assigned on both Edge Switches
      (config)interface range FastEthernet 0/4-12
      (config-if-range)switchport access vlan 100

    • VLAN 110 (Student) on ports 13-20 assigned on both Edge Switches
      (config)interface range FastEthernet 0/13-20
      (config-if-range)switchport access vlan 110

    • VLAN 130 (Lab1) on ports 21-24 assigned on East-Edge-02
      (config)interface range FastEthernet 0/21-24
      (config-if-range)switchport access vlan 130

    • VLAN 140 (Lab2) on ports 21-24 assigned on West-Edge-02
      (config)interface range FastEthernet 0/21-24
      (config-if-range)switchport access vlan 140

  • Configure End-User Devices

    • Assign FacStaff PC's IP's from VLAN 100
    • Assign Student PC's IP's from VLAN 110
    • Assign Lab PC's appropriate IP's on VLANs 130 and 140

  • Connect devices to the appropriate Edge Switches with Copper to the appropriate ports

  1. Configure Trunking on Core Switches

  • Configure trunk ports for Core switches

    • Add VLANs 100, 110, 130, and 140 to the VLAN database on Core Switches
    • Configure FastEthernet 0/1 and 0/2 as trunk ports for the appropriate VLANs

  • Configure FastEthernet 0/1 as a trunk port for the appropriate VLANs on all Edge Switches

  1. Connect Edge Switches to Core Switches
  • Create a Copper "cross-over" connection between Edge Switch and Core Switch trunk ports
  1. Enable Routing on East-Core Switch (using CLI)

  • Enable routing on the East-Core Switch
    (config)ip routing

  • Assign the router (gateway) addresses of VLANs 100, 110, 130, 140 to the East-Core Switch
    (config)interface vlan x (brings you into VLAN interface config mode)
    (config-if)ip address 10.27.x.1 255.255.x.x

  • Go back to each End-User Device and assign the appropriate gateway addresses for East and West

  1. Configure East-West Trunk

  • Configure Gigabit Ethernet 0/1 on both East and West core switches as trunk ports for the defined VLANs

  • Use the Copper "cross-over" connector to connect those trunk ports
