Routing Lab - eamonstackpole/my-tech-journal GitHub Wiki

Summary

  • In this lab we learned how to configure a network on packet tracer, how to configure and analyze packets through a sniffer, and observed the difference between switches and hubs.

Commands & Instructions

Problems & Troubleshooting

  • Had issues connecting my switch and sniffer, I used straight wire when I needed to use crossover wires. To prevent this in the future I should just use the automatic connection wire tool.

Questions

  • Deliverable 1: Build the below network in Packet Tracer. Screen Capture of networks (1 points)

  • Replace switch with a hub and repeat above steps. Deliverable 5: What was different about the sniffer information when it was connected to a hub? 3 points
    • I do not see any difference in the packets, however when connected to a hub I only saw ARP and ICMP packets and on the switch I saw STP and DTP packets as well.
