Summary We used Packet Tracer to make our own network consisting of 4 computers and a switch. Refer to the Google doc for how this lab works.

Procedure

  1. Assign IP addresses to the computers (use 4 addresses on the same network : 10.10.10.X)
  2. Configure the IP addresses as follows. Use a netmask of 255.255.255.0 PC IP Address

0 .......10.10.10.100

1 .......10.10.10.101

2 .......10.10.10.102

3.......10.10.10.103

  1. 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

  1. Use Ethernet cables to connect the computers to the switch.
  2. From the command prompt on PC0, ping PC3 using itโ€™s IP address.
  3. Verify that all of the PC's can ping one another. If not, troubleshoot and fix!
