Lab 5‐1 ‐ Routing Lab - benjamintyler367/NET-150-Journal GitHub Wiki

Goals of the lab

Configure a network I configured a network and pinged the devices to check that it is working properly.

Observe the Layer 2 header changes as a packet crosses a router There were no changes in the headers.

Recognize the role of the default gateway The role of the default gateway is to send inflammation to a destination that is not known.

In this network we made a tree style network and pinged a different computer that is not on the LAN. The video was useful and helpful with setting up the sniffer. I had a problem connecting the Hub to the Sniffer for deliverable #5 because it would not let me connect the 2 using a regular cable. I used a copper crossover cable and it works fine now. I also had a hard time setting up the network in general but Nathan helped me and I resolved the issue.
