Lab 2.2.4 Establishing a Console Session with HyperTerminal
Objective • Connect a router and workstation using a console cable.
• Configure HyperTerminal to establish a console session with the router.
Background/Preparation HyperTerminal is a simple Windows-based terminal emulation program that can be used to connect to the console port on the router. A PC with HyperTerminal provides a keyboard and monitor for the router. Connecting to the console port with a rollover cable and using HyperTerminal is the most basic way to access a router for checking or changing its configuration.
Set up a network similar to the one in the diagram. Any router that meets the interface requirements may be used. Possible routers include 800, 1600, 1700, 2500, 2600 routers, or a combination. The following resources will be required:
• Workstation with a serial interface and HyperTerminal
• Cisco Router
• Console (rollover) cable for connecting the workstation to the router
Step 1 Basic router configuration a. Connect a rollover cable to the console port on the router and the other end to the PC with a DB-
9 or DB-25 adapter to the COM 1 port. This should be completed prior to powering on any devices.

Lab 4.2.5a Connectivity Tests – Ping
Objective • Use the ping command to send ICMP datagrams to target host.
• Verify that the network layer between source and destination is working properly.
• Retrieve information to evaluate the path-to-host reliability.
• Determine delays over the path and whether the host can be reached or is functioning.
• Use the extended ping command to increase number of packets.
Background/Preparation The ping command is a good tool for troubleshooting Layers 1 though 3 of the OSI model and diagnosing basic network connectivity. Using ping sends an ICMP packet to the specified device (workstation, server, router or switch) and then waits for a reply. The IP address or host name can be pinged. In order to ping the host name of a router, there must be a static host lookup table in the router or a DNS server for name resolution to IP addresses.
Cable a network similar to the one in the diagram. Any router that meets the interface requirements may be used. Possible routers include 800, 1600, 1700, 2500, 2600 routers, or a combination. Refer to the chart at the end of the lab to correctly identify the interface identifiers to be used based on the equipment in the lab. The configuration output used in this lab is produced from 1721 series routers.
1 - 6 CCNA 2: Routers and Routing Basics v 3.1 - Lab 4.2.5a Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.

Start a HyperTerminal session as performed in the Establishing a HyperTerminal session lab.
Note: Go to the erase and reload instructions at the end of this lab. Perform those steps on all routers in this lab assignment before continuing.
Step 1 Configure the GAD and BHM routers a. If there are any difficulties configuring hostname or passwords, refer to the Configuring Router
Passwords lab. If there are any difficulties configuring interfaces or the routing protocol, refer to the Configuring Host Tables lab.
b. This lab requires that IP hostnames are configured.
c. Verify the routers configurations by performing a show running-config on each router. If not correct, fix any configuration errors and verify.
Step 2 Login to Router 1 and verify the connection to Router 2 a. Login to the GAD router.
b. Verify the connection between the two routers. Ping the Serial 0 interface of the BHM router. If the ping is not successful, return to Step 1 and troubleshoot the configuration.
Step 3 Display information about host to Layer 3 address mappings a. Enter show host at the router prompt.
The router will display information about host to Layer 3 (IP) address mappings, how this information was acquired, and the age of the entry.
b. List host names and the IP addresses listed for each one.
Host name IP Address
Step 4 Use the ping command a. Enter ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the previous listed IP address.
b. Repeat with all IP addresses listed.
c. The router sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packet to verify the hardware connection and network layer address. The PC is acting as the console to the router, pinging from one router to another router.
d. Did the IP addresses ping? ___________________________________
e. List four important pieces of information received back from issuing the ping command.

Lab 7.2.9 Load Balancing Across Multiple Paths
Objective • Configure Load balance across multiple paths.
• Observe the load balancing process.
Background/Preparation Cable a network similar to the one in the diagram. Any router that meets the interface requirements displayed in the above diagram, such as 800, 1600, 1700, 2500, and 2600 routers, or a combination, may be used. Please refer to the chart at the end of the lab to correctly identify the interface identifiers to be used based on the equipment in the lab. The configuration output used in this lab is produced from 1721 series routers. Any other router used may produce a slightly different output. The following steps are intended to be executed on each router unless specifically instructed otherwise.
Start a HyperTerminal session as performed in the Establishing a HyperTerminal session lab.
Note: Go to the erase and reload instructions at the end of this lab. Perform those steps on all routers in this lab assignment before continuing.
1 - 5 CCNA 2: Routers and Routing Basics v 3.1 - Lab 7.2.9 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Step 1 Configure the hostname and passwords on the routers a. On the routers, enter the global configuration mode and configure the hostname as shown in the
chart. Then configure the console, virtual terminal, and enable passwords. If there are problems doing this, refer to the Configuring Router Passwords lab. Next configure the interfaces and routing according to the chart. If there are problems doing this, refer to the Configuring Host Tables lab and the Configuring RIP lab. Make sure to copy the running-config to the startup-config on each router so the configuration will not be lost if the router is power- cycled.
Step 2 Configure the hosts with the proper IP address, subnet mask and default gateway a. Test the configuration by pinging all interfaces from each host. If the pinging is not successful
troubleshoot the configuration.
Step 3 Check Basic Routing Configuration a. Enter show ip protocol command on each router.
b. In the configuration, is "Routing protocol is RIP" displayed? _____________________________________
c. Enter the command show ip route on both routers. List how the route is connected (directly, RIP), the IP address and via through what network. There should be four routes in each table.
GAD Route connected IP address Through Network / Interface
BHM
Route connected IP address Through Network / Interface
d. Circle the evidence of load balancing in the above output.
Step 4 Make sure that the router load balance is on a per-packet basis a. Configure the router to load balance on a per-packet basis. Both serial interfaces must use
process switching. Process switching forces the router to look in the routing table for the destination network of each routed packet. In contrast, fast-switching, which is the default, stores the initial table lookup in a high-speed cache and uses the information to route packets to the same destination.
b. Enable process switching on both serial interfaces: GAD(config-if)# no ip route-cache BHM(config-if)# no ip route-cache
e. Verify that fast switching is disabled by using the show ip interface command.
f. Was fast switching disabled? ______________________________________
2 - 5 CCNA 2: Routers and Routing Basics v 3.1 - Lab 7.2.9 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Step 5 Verify per-packet load balancing a. Because there are two routes to the destination network, half the packets will be sent along one
path, and half will travel over the other. The path selection alternates with each packet received.
b. Observe this process by using the debug ip packet command on the GAD.
c. Send 30 ping packets across the network from the host attached to BHM router to the host attached to the GAD router. This can be done with the ping 192.168.16.2 – n 30 command on the host. As the pings are responded to the router generates IP packet information. Stop the debug by using the command undebug all on the GAD router.
d. Examine and record part of the debug output.
e. What is the evidence of load balancing in the output? _______________________________
Step 6 Verify per-destination load balancing a. After verifying per-packet load balancing, configure the router to use per-destination load
balancing. Both serial interfaces must use fast switching so that the route-cache can be used after the initial table lookup.
b. Use the command GAD(config-if)#ip route-cache.
c. Use the show ip interface to verify that fast switching is enabled.
d. Is fast switching enabled? ______________________________________
e. The routing table is consulted only once per destination, therefore, packets that are part of a packet train to a specific host will all follow the same path. Only when a second destination forces another table lookup or when the cached entry expires will the alternate path be used.
Use the debug ip packet command and ping across the network. Note which serial interface the packet was sent out on.
f. Examine and record part of the debug output. Which serial interface was the packet sent out on?
__________________________________________________________________________
Upon completion of the previous steps, log off by typing exit and turn the router off.

b. What is the OSPF state of the interface? _________________________________________
c. What is the default priority of the interface? _______________________________________
d. What is the network type of the interface? ________________________________________
Step 15 Configure London to always be the DR To ensure that the London router always becomes the DR for this multi-access segment, the OSPF priority must be set. London is the most powerful router in the network and so best suited to become DR. To assign the London loopback a higher IP address is not advised, as the numbering system has advantages for troubleshooting. Also London is not to act as DR for all segments to which it may belong. Set the priority of the interface to 50 on the London router only.
London(config)#interface Fastethernet 0/0 London(config-if)#ip ospf priority 50 London(config-if)#end
Display the priority for Interface fastethernet 0/0.
London#show ip ospf interface fastethernet 0/0
Step 16 Watch election process a. To watch the OSPF election process restart all of the routers using the reload command. Be
sure to save the running config before restarting the routers. As soon as the router prompt is available type:
Ottawa>enable Ottawa#debug ip ospf events
b. Which router was elected DR? ________________________________________________

fastethernet 0/4, as follows, at the Privileged EXEC mode prompt:
ALSwitch#show interface fastethernet 0/4
b. What is the state of this interface?
FastEthernet0/4 is _________________________, line protocol is ____________________
Step 15 Reactivate the port a. If a security violation occurs and the port is shut down, use the no shutdown command to
reactivate it.
b. Try reactivating this port a few times by switching between the original port 0/4 host and the new one. Plug in the original host, type the no shutdown command on the interface and ping using the DOS window. The ping will have to be repeated multiple times or use the ping 192.168.1.2 –n 200 command. This will set the number of ping packets to 200 instead of 4. Then switch hosts and try again.
Step 16 Exit the switch Type exit to leave the switch welcome screen:
Switch#exit
Once the steps are completed, logoff by typing exit, and turn all the devices off. Then remove and store the cables and adapter.

Erasing and Reloading the Switch For the majority of the labs in CCNA 3 and CCNA 4 it is necessary to start with an unconfigured switch. Use of a switch with an existing configuration may produce unpredictable results. These instructions allow preparation of the switch prior to performing the lab so previous configuration options do not interfere. The following is the procedure for clearing out previous configurations and starting with an unconfigured switch. Instructions are provided for the 2900, 2950, and 1900 Series switches.
2900 and 2950 Series Switches
1. Enter into the Privileged EXEC mode by typing enable.
If prompted for a password, enter class (if that does not work, ask the instructor).
Switch>enable
2. Remove the VLAN database information file.
Switch#delete flash:vlan.dat Delete filename [vlan.dat]?[Enter] Delete flash:vlan.dat? [confirm] [Enter] If there was no VLAN file, this message is displayed.
%Error deleting flash:vlan.dat (No such file or directory)
3. Remove the switch startup configuration file from NVRAM.
Switch#erase startup-config
The responding line prompt will be:
Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] Press Enter to confirm.
The response should be:
Erase of nvram: complete
4. Check that VLAN information was deleted.
Verify that the VLAN configuration was deleted in Step 2 using the show vlan command. If previous VLAN configuration information (other than the default management VLAN 1) is still present it will be necessary to power cycle the switch (hardware restart) instead of issuing the reload command. To power cycle the switch, remove the power cord from the back of the switch or unplug it. Then plug it back in.
If the VLAN information was successfully deleted in Step 2, go to Step 5 and restart the switch using the reload command.
5. Software restart (using the reload command)
6 - 7 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 8.2.6 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Note: This step is not necessary if the switch was restarted using the power cycle method.
a. At the Privileged EXEC mode enter the command reload.
Switch(config)#reload
The responding line prompt will be:
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]:
b. Type n and then press Enter.
The responding line prompt will be:
Proceed with reload? [confirm] [Enter] The first line of the response will be:
Reload requested by console. After the switch has reloaded, the line prompt will be:
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:
c. Type n and then press Enter.
The responding line prompt will be:
Press RETURN to get started! [Enter]
1900 Series Switches
1. Remove VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) information.
#delete vtp This command resets the switch with VTP parameters set to factory defaults. All other parameters will be unchanged. Reset system with VTP parameters set to factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o? Enter y and press Enter.
2. Remove the switch startup configuration from NVRAM.
#delete nvram This command resets the switch with factory defaults. All system parameters will revert to their default factory settings. All static and dynamic addresses will be removed.
Reset system with factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o?
Enter y and press Enter.

Lab 9.1.5b Trunking with 802.1q
Objective • Create a basic switch configuration and verify it.
• Create multiple VLANs, name them, and assign multiple member ports to them.
• Create an 802.1q trunk line between the two switches to allow communication between paired VLANs.
• Test the VLANs functionality by moving a workstation from one VLAN to another.
Background/Preparation Trunking changes the formatting of the packets. The ports need to be in agreement as to which format is being used to transmit data on the trunk or no data will be passed. If there is different trunking encapsulation on the two ends of the link they will not able to communicate. Similar situation will occur if one of the ports is configured in trunking mode (unconditionally) and the other one is in access mode (unconditionally).
When managing a switch, the Management Domain is always VLAN 1. The Network Administrator's workstation must have access to a port in the VLAN 1 Management Domain. All ports are assigned to VLAN 1 by default. This lab will also help demonstrate how VLANs can be used to separate traffic and reduce broadcast domains.
1 - 8 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 9.1.5b Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Cable a network similar to one of the diagram. The configuration output used in this lab is produced from 2950 series switch. Any other switch used may produce different output. The following steps are intended to be executed on each switch unless specifically instructed otherwise.
Start a HyperTerminal session.
Note: Go to the erase and reload instructions at the end of this lab. Perform those steps on all switches in this lab assignment before continuing.
Step 1 Configure the switch Configure the Hostname, access and command mode passwords, as well as the management LAN settings. These values are shown in the chart. If problems occur while performing this configuration, refer to the “Basic Switch Configuration lab”. Do not configure VLANs and trunking yet.
Step 2 Configure the hosts attached to the switch Configure the IP address, mask, and default gateway on each host. Be sure to choose addresses that are on the same subnet as the switch.
Step 3 Verify connectivity a. To verify that the host and switch are correctly configured, ping the switch from the hosts.
b. Were the pings successful? __________________________________________________
c. If the answer is no, troubleshoot the host and switches configurations.
Step 4 Display the VLAN interface information On Switch_A, type the command show vlan at the Privileged EXEC prompt as follows:
Switch_A#show vlan
Note: There should be an entry for VLAN 1 and the default VLANs (1002 +). If other VLANs appear, they could be deleted as instructed in Step 2 of the Erasing and Reloading instructions at the end of this lab or refer to the Lab Exercise: Deleting VLAN Configurations.
Step 5 Create and name three VLANs Enter the following commands to create and name three VLANs:
Switch_A#vlan database Switch_A(vlan)#vlan 10 name Accounting Switch_A(vlan)#vlan 20 name Marketing Switch_A(vlan)#vlan 30 name Engineering Switch_A(vlan)#exit
Use the show vlan command to verify that the VLANs have been created correctly.
Step 6 Assign ports to a VLAN 10 Assigning ports to VLANs must be done from the interface mode. Enter the following commands to add ports 0/4 to 0/6 to VLAN 10:
Switch_A#configure terminal Switch_A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/4 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10

Lab 9.2.5 VTP Client and Server Configurations
Objective • Create a basic switch configuration and verify it.
• Create multiple VLANs, name them and assign multiple member ports to them.
• Configure the VTP protocol to establish Server and client switches.
• Create an 802.1q trunk line between the two switches to allow communication between paired VLANs.
• Then test the VLANs functionality by moving a workstation from one VLAN to another.
Background/Preparation When managing a switch, the Management Domain is always VLAN 1. The Network Administrator's workstation must have access to a port in the VLAN 1 Management Domain. All ports are assigned to VLAN 1 by default.
Cable a network similar to the one of in diagram. The configuration output used in this lab is produced from a 2950 series switch. Any other switch used may produce different output. The following steps are to be executed on each switch unless specifically instructed otherwise.
Start a HyperTerminal session.
2 - 8 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 9.2.5 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Note: Go to the erase and reload instructions at the end of this lab. Perform those steps on all switches in this lab assignment before continuing.
Step 1 Configure the switch Configure the hostname, access, and command mode passwords, as well as the management LAN settings. These values are shown in the chart. If problems occur while performing this configuration, refer to the Basic Switch Configuration lab.
Step 2 Configure the hosts attached to the switch Configure the IP address, mask, and default gateway on each host. Be sure to choose addresses that are on the same subnet as the switch.
Step 3 Verify connectivity a. To verify that the host and switch are correctly configured, ping the switch from the hosts.
b. Were the pings successful? __________________________________________________
c. If the answer is no, troubleshoot the host and switches configurations.
Step 4 Display the VLAN interface information On Switch_A, type the command show vlan at the Privileged EXEC prompt as follows:

Note: There should be an entry for VLAN 1 and the default VLANs (1002 +). If other VLANs appear, they could be deleted as instructed in Step 2 of the Erasing and Reloading instructions at the end of this lab or refer to the Lab Exercise: Deleting VLAN Configurations.
Step 5 Configure VTP a. VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) needs to be configured on both switches. VTP is the protocol that
will communicate information about which VLANs exist from one switch to another. If VTP did not provide this information, VLANs would have to be created on all switches individually.
b. By default, the Catalyst switch series are configured as VTP servers. In the event that the server services are turned off, use the following command to turn it back on:
Switch_A#vlan database Switch_A(vlan)#vtp server Switch_A(vlan)#vtp domain group1 Switch_A(vlan)#exit
Step 6 Create and name three VLANs Enter the following commands to create and name three VLANs:
Switch_A#vlan database Switch_A(vlan)#vlan 10 name Accounting Switch_A(vlan)#vlan 20 name Marketing Switch_A(vlan)#vlan 30 name Engineering Switch_A(vlan)#exit
Use the show vlan command to verify that the VLANs have been created correctly.
3 - 8 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 9.2.5 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Step 7 Assign ports to VLAN 10 Assigning ports to VLANs must be done from the interface mode. Enter the following commands to add ports 0/4 to 0/6 to VLAN 10:
Switch_A#configure terminal Switch_A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/4 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10 Switch_A(config-if)#interface fastethernet 0/5 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10 Switch_A(config-if)#interface fastethernet 0/6 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10 Switch_A(config-if)#end
Step 8 Assign ports to VLAN 20 Enter the following commands to add ports 0/7 to 0/9 to VLAN 20:

Step 9 Assign ports to VLAN 30 Enter the following commands to add ports 0/10 to 0/12 to VLAN 30:
Switch_A#configure terminal Switch_A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/10 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 30 Switch_A(config-if)#interface fastethernet 0/11 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 30 Switch_A(config-if)#interface fastethernet 0/12 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode access Switch_A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 30 Switch_A(config-if)#end
Step 10 Display the VLAN interface information a. On Switch_A, type the command show vlan at the Privileged EXEC prompt as follows:
Switch_A#show vlan
4 - 8 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 9.2.5 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
b. Are ports 0/10 through 0/12 assigned to VLAN 30?
__________________________________________________________________________
Step 11 Configure VTP client Enter the following commands to configure Switch_B to be a VTP client:
Switch_B#vlan database Switch_B(vlan)#vtp client Switch_B(vlan)#vtp domain group1 Switch_B(vlan)#exit
Step 12 Create the trunk On both switches, Switch_A and Switch_B, type the following command at the fastethernet 0/1 interface command prompt. Note that it is not necessary to specify the encapsulation on a 2950, since it only supports 802.1Q.
Switch_A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/1 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk Switch_A(config-if)#end Switch_B(config)#interface fastethernet 0/1 Switch_B(config-if)#switchport mode trunk Switch_B(config-if)#end
2900:
Switch_A(config)#interface fastethernet0/1 Switch_A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk Switch_A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q Switch_A(config-if)#end Switch_B(config)#interface fastethernet0/1 Switch_B(config-if)#switchport mode trunk Switch_B(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q Switch_B(config-if)#end
Step 13 Verify the trunk a. To verify that port fastethernet 0/1 has been established as a trunk port, type show interface
fastethernet 0/1 switchport at the Privileged EXEC mode prompt
b. What type of trunking encapsulation is shown on the output results? ____________________
Step 14 Display the VLAN interface information a. On Switch_B, type the command show vlan at the Privileged EXEC prompt as follows:

Erasing and Reloading the Switch For the majority of the labs in CCNA 3 and CCNA 4 it is necessary to start with an unconfigured switch. Use of a switch with an existing configuration may produce unpredictable results. These instructions allow preparation of the switch prior to performing the lab so previous configuration options do not interfere. The following is the procedure for clearing out previous configurations and starting with an unconfigured switch. Instructions are provided for the 2900, 2950, and 1900 Series switches.
2900 and 2950 Series Switches
1. Enter into the Privileged EXEC mode by typing enable.
Switch>enable
If prompted for a password, enter class, if that does not work, ask the instructor.
2. Remove the VLAN database information file.
Switch#delete flash:vlan.dat Delete filename [vlan.dat]?[Enter] Delete flash:vlan.dat? [confirm] [Enter]
If there was no VLAN file, this message is displayed.
%Error deleting flash:vlan.dat (No such file or directory)
3. Remove the switch startup configuration file from NVRAM.
Switch#erase startup-config
The responding line prompt will be:
Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm]
Press Enter to confirm.
The response should be:
Erase of nvram: complete
4. Check that VLAN information was deleted.
Verify that the VLAN configuration was deleted in Step 2 using the show vlan command. If previous VLAN configuration information (other than the default management VLAN 1) is still present it will be necessary to power cycle the switch (hardware restart) instead of issuing the reload command. To power cycle the switch, remove the power cord from the back of the switch or unplug it. Then plug it back in.
If the VLAN information was successfully deleted in Step 2, go to Step 5 and restart the switch using the reload command.
5. Software restart (using the reload command)
8 - 8 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 9.2.5 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Note: This step is not necessary if the switch was restarted using the power cycle method.
a. At the Privileged EXEC mode enter the command reload.
Switch(config)#reload
The responding line prompt will be:
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]:
b. Type n and then press Enter.
The responding line prompt will be:
Proceed with reload? [confirm] [Enter]
The first line of the response will be:
Reload requested by console.
After the switch has reloaded, the line prompt will be:
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:
c. Type n and then press Enter.
The responding line prompt will be:
Press RETURN to get started! [Enter]
1900 Series Switches
1. Remove VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP) information.
#delete vtp This command resets the switch with VTP parameters set to factory defaults. All other parameters will be unchanged. Reset system with VTP parameters set to factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o?
Enter y and press Enter.
2. Remove the switch startup configuration from NVRAM.
#delete nvram
This command resets the switch with factory defaults. All system parameters will revert to their default factory settings. All static and dynamic addresses will be removed.
Reset system with factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o?
Enter y and press Enter.
Lab 9.3.6 Configuring Inter-VLAN Routing
Objective • Create a basic switch configuration and verify it.
• Create multiple VLANs, name them and assign multiple member ports to them.
• Create a basic configuration on a router.
• Create an 802.1q trunk line between the switch and router to allow communication between VLANs.
• Test the routing functionality.
Background/Preparation When managing a switch, the Management Domain is always VLAN 1. The Network Administrator's workstation must have access to a port in the VLAN 1 Management Domain. All ports are assigned to VLAN 1 by default. This lab will also help demonstrate how VLANs can be used to separate traffic and reduce broadcast domains.
Cable a network similar to the one in the diagram. The configuration output used in this lab is produced from a 2950 series switch. Any other switch used may produce different output. The following steps are to be executed on each switch unless specifically instructed otherwise. Instructions are also provided for the 2900 and 1900 Series switches. The 1900 Series switch initially displays a User Interface Menu. Select the “Command Line” option from the menu to perform the steps for this lab.
1 - 7 CCNA 3: Switching Basics and Intermediate Routing v 3.1 - Lab 9.3.6 Copyright 2003, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Note: The router used must have a Fast Ethernet interface in order to support trunking and inter-VLAN routing. The 2500 series router cannot be used for this lab.
Start a HyperTerminal session.
Note: Go to the erase and reload instructions at the end of this lab. Perform those steps on all switches in this lab assignment before continuing.
Step 1 Configure the switch Configure the hostname, access, and command mode passwords, as well as the management LAN settings. These values are shown in the chart. If problems occur while performing this configuration, refer to the Basic Switch Configuration lab.
Step 2 Configure the hosts attached to the switch Configure the hosts using the following information.
a. For the host in port 0/5:
IP address 192.168.5.2
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Default gateway 192.168.5.1
b. For the host in port 0/9:
IP address 192.168.7.2
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Default gateway 192.168.7.1
Step 3 Verify connectivity Check to see if the hosts can ping the switch.
a. Ping the switch IP address from the hosts.
b. Were the pings successful? __________________________________________________
c. Why or why not? __________________________________________________
Step 4 Create and name two VLANs Enter the following commands to create and name two VLANs:
