Lab 4‐1 Observing ARP in Packet Tracer - aljimenez28/champlain GitHub Wiki

Important Info

  • When the lab asks you to go to command prompt and you are on packet tracer, you need to go on command prompt IN packet tracer. To do this, click on the device in the app (PC0, PC1, etc...), go to desktop, then command prompt.
  • You cannot ping another computer if it is not connected to the router (makes sense)
  • Click on the switch and the select CLI. This is the Command Line Interface. You need to get to the root CLI prompt which looks like Switch#
    • If the prompt looks like: Switch>, then type enable to enter admin mode
    • If the prompt looks like Switch (config)# type exit to get back to the basic mode for admin
    • Then type show mac-address-table

Problems:

  • The ping from PC0 to PC3 got lost. The solution was actually connecting PC3 to the router so that is is able to receive connections..
  • After I typed 'exit' in the CLI under the switch, the thing froze and I couldn't type anything. The solution was simply pressing enter right next to some words...
