Lab 2‐1: Intro to Packet Tracer and Deploying Pinging Devices - rune-seregina/net-150-sp24 GitHub Wiki
What was this lab's objective?
In the pre-lab lecture, I learned the basic uses and controls within Packet Tracer. I then deployed the learned knowledge within the program using two basic exercises, one to set up connected devices to two routers and another exercise to test my connectivity by pinging one PC using another PC.
Packet Tracer Notes:
- configure cisco routers & switches using drag & drop interface
-
- easy to correct mistakes
-
- practice with equipment you dont have access to (eg expensive equipment)
- lower left- list of devices & cables
- cabling category- lightning bolt icon
- click device- configuration interface
- hover device- useful info
- use fast-forward to avoid waiting for things to set up/load!
