Lab 4‐3 NET 150 - connor0329/repository-1 GitHub Wiki

In this lab a built a network with a laptop, two switches, a server, and router. I assigned IP addresses and subnet masks to both routers and assigned IP addresses, subnet masks and gateway addresses to the laptop and server. I then pinged that server from the laptop. Next I used Simulation Mode to capture packets when I opened up the laptops Web Browser and entered the IP address of the server. I Reviewed through the HTTP packets in the simulation panel to find the one that included both source/destination MAC and IP addresses.

Questions: Document the use of "Simulation Mode"

To use simulation mode first open simulation mode. Then to capture packets in simulation mode you have to perform an action such as, opening up the laptops web browser and entering the IP address of the server

Document how to save configurations on routers

To save configurations on routers, click on the router, config, click "Save NVRAM"

Enter useful Packet Tracer Tips/Tricks you pick up

  • the router contained the HTTP packet with both the Source/Destination MAC and IP addresses
