Introduction

Overview

The CCNA® labs contained in this lab guide are based on this simulator. This
Windows® - based product simulates a wide variety of Cisco routers as well as the
Catalyst 1900, 2950, and 5000 switches. The simulator supports multiple routing
protocols, including RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, and single-area OSPF. It supports different
LAN/WAN protocols, including PPP/CHAP, ISDN, and Frame Relay. The exercises in
this lab guide only require the simulator – they do not require access to any external
router or switch hardware. It should be noted that the simulator supports many, but not
all of the IOS commands available on a real router or switch. All the commands
referenced in this lab guide are supported through the simulator.

Lab Topology
The Lab Topology is shown in the diagram on the next page (it can also be viewed by
selecting the Topology button at the top of the simulator screen).
You will have:

• 4 x Cisco 2500 routers

o each router has one Ethernet and two serial interfaces
o one of the 2500’s, router1, has an ISDN BRI interface
• 1 x Cisco 2600 router (identified as router2)
o has one Ethernet interface
o has both an ISDN BRI and a PRI interface
• 2 x Catalyst 1912 switches
o each switch has twelve 10baseT and two Fast Ethernet ports
• 2 X Catalyst 2950 switches
o each switch has twelve 10/100 Ethernet ports
• 2 x PC’s

The LAN/WAN interfaces and subnet numbers are indicated on the diagram. Specific
interface IP addresses are included in a table further on.

You will also be asked questions at various points during the lab. Answers to these
questions are contained in Appendix B at the back of this lab guide.

Saving/Restoring Configuration Files

You can save your work and exit at any point. There are two separate options for loading
and saving your configurations.

First, make sure you have selected the appropriate router/switch/PC button at the top of
the simulator screen. The next step is to press File -> Save Single Device Config from
the top of the screen. You will then be prompted for a file name. Each individual device
configuration must be saved separately.

Secondly, you can also save the entire network configuration at one time. This will save
the configurations for all devices. First select the File -> Save Multi Device Configs
from the top of the screen. You will then be prompted for a file name.

When you decide you would like to load your saved configurations back into the
simulator, select the Load Single Device Config or Load Multi Device Config menu
option under the File menu. Note: this process can take up to a couple of minutes to
complete. Be patient!

Lab 1 – Basic Router Configuration

1. In this lab, you will get practice with basic configuration and show commands on the
Cisco router.

2. Select Router1 from the tool bar. Press enter to get to the user prompt

Router>

3. The greater-than symbol (>) in the prompt indicates you are in user mode. Type ? to
see a list of commands that can be entered in user mode.

Router> ?

4. Type enable to get into privileged mode. The pound sign (#) indicates you are now in
privileged mode.

Router> enable
Router#

5. Type ? to see a list of commands that can be entered in privileged mode. Notice that
there are more commands available in
privileged mode than are available in user mode. Configure and reload are two such
commands that can only be issued in privileged mode.

Router# ?

6. Exit privileged mode by typing disable.

Router# disable
Router>

7. Re-enter privileged mode and type configure terminal to get into configuration mode

Router> enable
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)#

8. Configure a hostname of ‘router1’ (without the quote marks). Notice how the prompt
changes.

Router(config)# hostname router1

router1(config)#

9. In global configuration mode on router1, type enable ?. This will show valid
parameters that can be entered with the enable command.
Configure an enable password of ‘ccnalab’ that will not be encrypted when viewing the
___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
router configuration file and an enable
password of ’cisco’ that will be encrypted.
a. Question: when both encrypted and unencrypted enable passwords are configured,
which one is used?

router1(config)# enable ?
router1(config)# enable password ccnalab
router1(config)# enable secret cisco

10. Configure an IP address for the Ethernet0 interface on router1 (refer to the table on
page 5 for all IP addresses and masks).
Activate the interface – it is currently in ‘shutdown’ mode. You should see a message
that the interface has now come up.
Practice using the tab key – type int and then the tab key (no spaces). You should see the
word interface spelled out.

router1(config)# int<tab>
router1(config)# interface ethernet0
router1(config-if)# ip address 160.10.1.1 255.255.255.0
router1(config-if)# no shutdown

11. Configure an IP address for router1’s Serial0 interface (refer to the table for IP
addresses and masks) and activate the interface.
Practice using abbreviated commands for both interface serial0 and no shutdown.

router1(config-if)# int s0
router1(config-if)# ip address 175.10.1.1 255.255.255.0
router1(config-if)# no shut

12. Exit configuration mode by keying ctrl-z. This will bring you back to the privileged
mode prompt. You could also accomplish the same thing
by keying exit twice. The exit command moves you back one level
(from interface-configuration mode -> global configuration mode -> privileged mode
prompt).

router1(config-if)# ctrl-z
router1#

13. Type logout to exit the command line interface

router1# logout

14. Press the enter key to get back into the user mode prompt and then type enable to get
into privileged mode. You will be prompted for the
enable secret password ‘cisco’ which you previously configured.

router1> enable
password: cisco
router1#

17. Display the active configuration in DRAM by typing:

router1# show running-config

18. Display the saved configuration in NVRAM by typing show startup-config.

a. Question: does anything exist in NVRAM? If not, why not?

router1# show startup-config

19. Save the running (active) configuration to NVRAM by typing:

router1# copy running-config startup-config

20. Now display the contents of NVRAM again. This time, you should see the active
configuration saved in NVRAM.

router1# show startup-config

21. Issue the show version command and answer these questions:
a. Question: What IOS release is running on router1?
b. Question: What are the contents of the configuration register?

router1# show version

22. Issue the command to show which Layer 3 protocols are currently running on the
router.
a. Question: which protocols are currently running on the router?

Router# configure terminal
Router(config)#

24. Configure a hostname of ‘router2’ and configure an enable secret password of ‘cisco’
for router2.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
Router(config)# hostname router2
router2(config)# enable secret cisco

25. Configure an IP address for Fast Ethernet 0/0 on router2 and activate the interface
(see the diagram above for IP addresses and masks). Router2 is 2600 modular router and
must be configured using slot/port notation.

router2(config)# interface fa 0/0

router2(config-if)# ip address 160.10.1.2 255.255.255.0
router2(config-if)# no shut

26. Display the summary status of all interfaces. Remember to get out of configuration
mode first before issuing any show commands.
a. Question: what status should interface Fa 0/0 show if it is fully activated?
b. Question: what status would Fa 0/0 show if it was in ‘shutdown’ mode?

router2(config-if)# ctrl-z
router2# show ip interface brief

27. Try to ping router1’s Ethernet address (160.10.1.1) from router2.

a. Question: Were you successful? If not, what commands should you use for trouble-
shooting?

Lab 2 – Advanced Router Configuration

1. In this lab you will practice using some advanced configuration and show commands
on the Cisco router. Please remember your lab 1 commands needed to switch
between Router modes (i.e. exit, end, disable)

2. On router1, configure a console password of ‘boson’. The console user must enter this
password before gaining access to the user mode prompt.

router1(config)# line console 0

router1(config-line)# login
router1(config-line)# password boson

3. Configure a banner that says” Welcome to Router1 - Authorized Users Only”.

router1(config)# banner motd #

Welcome to Router1 - Authorized Users Only #

4. Test the banner and console password by logging out of the router and logging back
in. Get into enable mode after successfully logging into the console.

router1# logout
enter
password: boson
router1>

5. Configure a password of ‘cisco’ on router2 that will enable remote users to Telnet into
it:

router2(config)# line vty 0 4

router2(config-line)# login
router2(config-line)# password cisco

6. On router1, associate a name of ‘router2’ with the remote IP address 160.10.1.2. This
will allow you to ping router2’s name rather than having to remember its IP address.

router1(config)# ip host router2 160.10.1.2

7. Verify that the name is in router1’s host table with the show hosts command.

router1# show hosts

8. Ping ‘router2’ and verify that the pings succeed.

router1# ping router2

9. Display the contents of flash memory on router2.

a. Question: what is the name of the IOS image in flash and how large is it?

___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
router2# show flash

10. Display the history table on router1. This shows the last 10 commands that were
entered on the router. You can recall commands by entering CTRL-P or by hitting the up
arrow key.

router1# show history

router1# ctrl-p (to see previously entered commands)

11. On router1, do a show interfaces on Serial 0. Note on the third line of the output that
the bandwidth is assumed to be 1544kb. This is because the router assumes all serial
links are T1’s unless you configure otherwise. Configure router1’s S0 link to have a
clock rate of 64000 and a bandwidth of 64kb. When you are finished, reenter the show
interfaces command.

router1# show interfaces serial 0

router1# configure terminal
router1(config)# interface serial 0
router1(config-if)# bandwidth 64
router1(config-if)# clock rate 64000
router1(config-if)# ctrl-z
router1# show interfaces serial 0

12. On router1, add a description to interface Serial 0 that says “Serial Link to Router3”.
This description will appear whenever you issue a show interfaces
command for Serial 0.

router1(config)# interface serial 0

router1(config-if)# description Serial Link to Router3
router1(config-if)# exit
router1(config)# exit
router1# show interfaces serial 0

13. Configure router3 and router4:

• configure hostnames
• configure an enable secret password of ‘cisco’
• assign IP addresses and subnet masks to serial & Ethernet interfaces (see table on
page 6)
• Remember to set the clock rate on the Router 3 Serial 1 interface.
• activate serial and Ethernet interfaces
• verify router3 can ping router1
• verify router3 can ping router4
• save the configurations to NVRAM

Lab 3 - CDP

1. In this lab, you will practice using Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) commands to view
information about directly connected neighbors.

2. On router1, display summary information for router1’s CDP neighbors. You should
see one-line entries for both router2 and router3.

router1# sh cdp neighbors

3. On router1, display detailed information about CDP neighbors. You can do this with
either the show cdp neighbors detail or show cdp entry * commands.

router1# show cdp neighbors detail

router1# show cdp entry *

4. On router1, display the interfaces where CDP is active.

a. Question: what is the CDP advertisement interval?
b. Question: what is the holdtime interval and what does it signify?

router1# show cdp interface

5. On router1, change the CDP advertisement interval to 50 sec. and the holdtime interval
to 170 sec.
Issue the show cdp interface command to verify the new timers are set correctly.

router1(config)# cdp timer 50

router1(config)# cdp holdtime 170
router1(config)# exit
router1# sh cdp interface

___________________________________________________________________________________

Lab 4 – Telnet

1. In this lab, you will practice Telnet’ing from one router to another. You will suspend
Telnet sessions using the ctrl-shift-6 X sequence and display active Telnet sessions using
the show sessions and show users commands.

2. Make sure you have permitted telnet access on router3.

router3# config t
router3(config)#line vty 0 4
router3(config-line)#login
router3(config-line)#password cisco

3. From router1, Telnet to router2 (160.10.1.2). Once into router2, issue the show users
command. This command shows which remote users are Telnet’ed into this local router.
You should see router1’s IP address (160.10.1.1) as the user Telnet’ed into router2.

router1# telnet 160.10.1.2

router2>
router2> show users

4. Suspend your Telnet session to router2 by pressing CTRL-SHIFT-6 and X. You

should return to router1 without breaking the active Telnet session. Issue the show
sessions command on router1. This command shows what active, but suspended,
sessions you have to other routers.

router2# ctrl-shift-6 x
router1#
router1# show sessions

5. Now Telnet from router1 to router3. Suspend the session and return to router1. Issue
the show sessions command. You should now see two suspended sessions: one to
router2 (160.10.1.2) and one to router3 (175.10.1.2).

router1# telnet 175.10.1.2

router3>
router3> ctrl-shift-6 x
router1#
router1# show sessions

6. Disconnect the two suspended sessions on router1. The number used in the disconnect
command comes from the
left-most column in the show sessions output. Issue show sessions to see if the
suspended Telnet sessions have disappeared.

router1# disconnect 2
router1# disconnect 1
router1# show sessions

Lab 5 - TFTP

1. In this lab, you are going to configure PC1 as a TFTP-Server. You will then backup
and restore router4’s configuration to the TFTP-Server.

2. Under the simulator, select PC1 from the eStations drop-down menu. Configure PC1
to have an IP address of 195.10.1.2 with a mask of 255.255.255.0 and a default-gateway
of 195.10.1.1. Use the winipcfg utility on the PC to do this. The PC is automatically
enabled to be a TFTP server.

c:> winipcfg

3. On router4, make sure you can ping PC1:

router4# ping 195.10.1.2

4. On router4, copy your running-configuration to the tftp-server. You will be prompted

for the address of the tftp-server (195.10.1.2). You will also be prompted for a file name
(any name you choose).

router4# copy running-config tftp

5. On the tftp-server (PC1), issue the show tftp-configs command to see if router4’s
configuration was successfully backed up (this is not a standard PC command, it is only
found within this product).

c:> show tftp-configs

6. You will now restore the configuration you saved on the TFTP server to NVRAM on
router4. Make sure router4’s NVRAM is currently empty by issuing the show startup-
config command. If it is not empty, use the erase startup-config command to clear it.
Restore the configuration from the tftp-server to NVRAM on router4 with the following
copy command (enter the PC’s IP address and previously-saved file name when
prompted):

router4# copy tftp startup-config

7. Issue the show startup-config command. You should now see the restored
configuration file in NVRAM.
a. Question: was it necessary to clear out router4’s NVRAM in order to copy a file into
it? Why?

___________________________________________________________________________________

Lab 6 - RIP

1. In this lab, you will be configuring RIP. On router1, router2, router3, and router4,
configure RIP V1 on all serial and Ethernet interfaces (except for the ISDN and frame
relay interfaces).
a. Question: On router1, why doesn’t the network statement under RIP specify
160.10.1.0 rather than 160.10.0.0?

router1(config)# router rip

router1(config-router)# network 160.10.0.0
router1(config-router)# network 175.10.0.0

router2(config)# router rip

router2(config-router)# network 160.10.0.0

router3(config)# router rip

router3(config-router)# network 175.10.0.0
router3(config-router)# network 180.10.0.0
router3(config-router)# network 197.10.1.0

router4(config)# router rip

router4(config-router)# network 180.10.0.0
router4(config-router)# network 195.10.1.0

2. On router1, issue the show ip protocols command. This commands shows information
about all dynamic routing protocols that are running on the router.
Based on the output of this command:
a. Question: how frequently does RIP advertise routing updates?
b. Question: what is the holddown timer interval for RIP?

router1# show ip protocols

3. On router4, issue the show ip route command. You should see two directly connected
routes (180.10.1.0 and 195.10.1.0) and three remote routes (160.10.0.0, 197.10.1.0 and
175.10.0.0).
a. What is the administrative distance for RIP?

router4# show ip route

4. On router4, ping both router1 and router2. The pings should succeed if RIP is
configured on all routers.

router4# ping 175.10.1.1

router4# ping 160.10.1.2

___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
5. On router4, clear and recreate the IP routing table with the clear ip route * command.
This command is sometimes necessary when trying to troubleshoot unusual routing
problems.

router4# clear ip route *

6. On router1, enter the debug ip rip command. This will show the periodic (every 30
seconds) RIP updates being transmitted and received on each interface.

router1# debug ip rip

7. After you examine a few debug updates, turn debugging off with the command
undebug all

router1# undebug all

___________________________________________________________________________________

Lab 7 – IGRP

1. In this lab, you will configure the IGRP routing protocol. Begin by turning off RIP on
router1, router2, router3, and router4. You can verify RIP is turned off by using the
command show ip protocols.
routerx(config)# no router rip
routerx# show ip protocols

2. Turn on IGRP on router1, router2, router3, and router4. Use AS# 200.

router1(config)# router igrp 200

router1(config-router)# network 160.10.0.0
router1(config-router)# network 175.10.0.0

router2(config)# router igrp 200

router2(config-router)# network 160.10.0.0

router3(config)# router igrp 200

router3(config-router)# network 175.10.0.0
router3(config-router)# network 180.10.0.0
router3(config-router)# network 197.10.1.0

router4(config)# router igrp 200

router4(config-router)# network 180.10.0.0
router4(config-router)# network 195.10.1.0

3. Display the dynamic routing protocols that are running on router4.

a. Question: how frequently does IGRP send out routing updates?
b. Question: what is the holddown interval for IGRP?
c. Question: what is the default hop count for IGRP?

router4# show ip protocols

4. Display the IP routing table on router4.

a. Question: what is the administrative distance for IGRP?

router4# show ip route

5. From router4, ping router1 and router2. These pings should succeed if IGRP is
configured on all the routers.

router4# ping 175.10.1.1

router4# ping 160.10.1.2

6. On router1, issue the debug ip igrp events and debug ip igrp transactions commands.

Lab 11 – VLANs and Trunking (Catalyst 1900 Switches)

1. In this lab, you will set up VLANs on the Catalyst 1900 switches and test them by
pinging between router4 and PC1. Router4 is connected to e0/1 on switch1 and PC1 is
connected to e0/1 on switch2. Switch1 and switch2 are interconnected through their
fa0/26 Fast Ethernet ports.

2. Using winipcfg on PC1, configure an IP address of 195.10.1.2/24 and a default

gateway of 195.10.1.1
(if not already configured from a previous lab).

c:> winipcfg

3. Verify you can presently ping between PC1 and router4. If you cannot ping
successfully, check that router4’s Ethernet0 IP address is 195.10.1.1/24 and that the
interface is enabled. Also, using the winipcfg utility, check that the PC has a configured
IP address of 195.10.1.2/24.

c:> ping 195.10.1.1

4. On switch1 and switch2, issue the show vlan command. You should note that, by
default, all switch ports are in VLAN1. Because router4, PC1, and the switch-to-switch
link are all in VLAN1, should be able to ping between PC1 and router4.

1900swx# show vlan

5. On switch1 and switch2, set up a VTP domain called bigdomain. Verify it has been
created with the show vtp command.
a. Question: what VTP operating mode are the switches in?

1900swx(config)# vtp domain bigdomain

1900swx(config)# exit
1900swx# show vtp

6. On switch1 and switch2, create VLAN 10, calling it ccnavlan. Issue the show vlan
command to verify it was successfully created.
a. Question: do you see any ports connected to VLAN 10. If not, why not?

1900swx(config)# vlan 10 name ccnavlan

1900swx(config)# exit
1900swx# show vlan

7. On switch1 and switch2, assign the e0/1 ports to the new VLAN you created. Router4
and PC1 are attached to these ports. Issue the show vlan command on both switches to
verify these ports have been moved to VLAN10. Also, issue the show vlan-membership
command. This is another command that shows VLAN assignments by port on the
1900.

___________________________________________________________________________________

1900swx(config-if)# vlan-membership static 10
1900swx(config-if)# ctrl-z
1900swx# show vlan
1900swx# show vlan-membership

8. Now that both router4 and PC1 are in VLAN10, try to ping from the PC1 to router4. It
should fail.
a. Question: if both devices are in the same VLAN, why should the pings fail?

c:> ping 195.10.1.1

9. Make the link between switch1 and switch2 a trunk line capable of carrying traffic for
any VLAN. Use the show trunk a command to verify trunking is enabled on port fa0/26
on both switches (it should say “Trunking: on”)
a. Question: what trunking protocol does the 1900 use – ISL or 802.1Q?

1900swx(config)# interface fa0/26

1900swx(config-if)# trunk on
1900swx(config-if)# ctrl-z
1900swx# show trunk a

10. Now ping between PC1 and router4. The pings should succeed because both devices
are in the same VLAN and the inter-switch link is a trunk line capable of carrying traffic
for any VLAN.

c:> ping 195.10.1.1

Lab 13 – VLANs and Trunking (Catalyst 2950 Switches)

1. In this lab, you will set up VLANs on switch3 and switch4 (Catalyst 2950
switches) and test them by pinging between router3 and PC2. Router3 is connected to
Fa0/1 on switch3 and PC2 is connected to Fa0/1 on switch4. Switch3 and switch4 are
interconnected through their fa0/12 Fast Ethernet ports.

2. On PC2 using winipcfg, configure an IP address of 197.10.1.2/24 and a default

gateway of 197.10.1.1.

c:> winipcfg

3. Verify you can presently ping between PC2 and router3. If you cannot ping
successfully, check that router3’s FastEthernet0 IP address is 197.10.1.1/24 and that the
interface is enabled. Also, using the winipcfg utility, check that PC2 has a configured IP
address of 197.10.1.2/24.

c:> ping 197.10.1.1

4. On switch3 and switch4, issue the show vlan command. You should note that, by
default, all switch ports are in VLAN1. Because router3, PC2, and the switch-to-switch
link are all in VLAN1, you should be able to ping between PC2 and router3.

2950swx# show vlan

5. On switch3 and switch4, set up a VTP domain called classroom. Verify it has been
created with the show vtp status command.

2950swx# vlan database

2950swx(vlan)# vtp domain classroom
2950swx(vlan)# ctrl-z
2950swx# show vtp status

6. On switch3 and switch4, create VLAN 20, calling it 2950vlan. Issue the show vlan
command to verify it was successfully created.
a. Question: do you see any ports connected to VLAN 20. If not, why not?

2950swx# vlan database

2950swx(vlan)# vlan 20 name 2950vlan
2950swx(vlan)# exit
2950swx# show vlan

___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
7. On switch3 and switch4, assign the fa0/1 ports to the new VLAN you created. Router3
and PC2 are attached to these ports. Issue the show vlan command on both switches to
verify these ports have been moved to VLAN20.

2950swx(config)# interface fa0/1

2950swx(config-if)# switchport mode access
2950swx(config-if)# switchport access vlan 20
2950swx(config-if)# ctrl-z
2950swx# show vlan

8. Now that both router3 and PC2 are in VLAN20, try to ping from PC2 to router3. It
should fail.
a. Question: if both devices are in the same VLAN, why should the pings fail?

c:> ping 197.10.1.1

9. Make the link between switch3 and switch4 a trunk line capable of carrying traffic for
any VLAN.
Use the show interface fa0/12 switchport command to verify trunking is enabled on port
fa0/12 on both switches.
a. Question: what trunking protocol does the 2950 use – ISL or 802.1Q?

2950swx(config)# interface fa0/12

2950swx(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
2950swx(config-if)# ctrl-z
2950swx# show interface fa0/12 switchport

10. Now ping between PC2 and router3. The pings should succeed because both devices
are in the same VLAN
and the inter-switch link is a trunk line capable of carrying traffic for any VLAN.

c:> ping 197.10.1.1

Lab 14 – IP Access-Lists

1. In this lab, you will build standard and extended IP access-lists to filter traffic coming
inbound on router1’s serial0 interface.

2. Insure you can ping router2 (160.10.1.2) from both router3 and router4. The path to
router2 is through router1’s serial0 interface. If you cannot successfully ping router2,
check that IP addresses have been assigned, all interfaces are up, and that a dynamic
routing protocol (RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, or OSPF) is running on all routers.

router3# ping 160.10.1.2

router4# ping 160.10.1.2

3. On router1, build a standard IP access-list that permits traffic from subnet 175.10.1.0,
but blocks traffic from all other devices. Apply this access-list to router1’s serial0
interface for inbound traffic.
a. Question: is a ‘deny any’ statement required in the access-list?
b. Question: what does the mask 0.0.0.255 mean in the access-list?
c. Question: can any number be assigned to a standard IP access-list?

router1(config)# access-list 1 permit 175.10.1.0 0.0.0.255

router1(config)# interface serial0
router1(config-if)# ip access-group 1 in

4. Test your access-list by ping’ing from router3 and router4 to router2. The pings from
router3 (in subnet 175.10.1.0)
should succeed while the pings from router4 (in subnet 180.10.1.0) should fail.

5. On router1, build an extended IP access-list that will allow Telnet traffic from host
175.10.1.2 (router3), and
ICMP traffic from host 180.10.1.2 (router4), but that will block everything else.
Remove the previous access-list and apply this new one to router1’s serial0 interface.
a. Question: what are two ways you can specify a host address in an extended IP access-
list?
b. Question: what is the number range for extended IP access-lists?
c. Question: how would you permit RIP routing updates?

router1(config)# access-list 100 permit tcp host 175.10.1.2 any eq telnet

router1(config)# access-list 100 permit icmp host 180.10.1.2 any
router1(config)# interface serial0
router1(config-if)# no ip access-group 1 in
router1(config-if)# ip access-group 100 in

___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
6. Test access-list 100 by pinging and telneting from router3 & router4 to router2.
Router3 (175.10.1.2) should be able to telnet to router2, but not ping to it. Router4
(180.10.1.2) should be able to ping to router2, but not telnet to it.

router3# ping 160.10.1.2

router3# telnet 160.10.1.2

Lab 15 - NAT/PAT

1. In this lab, you will configure NAT/PAT function on router1. You will configure three
forms of translation: static network address translation, dynamic translation, and
overloading (port address translation). Remember to disable the access lists you
configured on Router 1 in the previous lab before continuing this lab.

router1(config)# serial 0
router1(config-if)# no ip access-group 100 in

2. On router1, configure NAT to statically translate router2’s Ethernet address

160.10.1.2 to 169.10.1.2.

router1(config)# ip nat inside source static 160.10.1.2 169.10.1.2

router1(config)# interface ethernet0
router1(config-if)# ip nat inside
router1(config-if)# interface serial0
router1(config-if)# ip nat outside
router1(config-if)# no shut

3. Test the static NAT translation by telnet’ing from router2 to router3. Once into
router3, issue the show users command. The output of this command should show that
169.10.1.2 (the translated IP address) is the logged-in device.

router2# telnet 175.10.1.2

router3# show users

4. Display the NAT Translation table on router1. The output of the display should show
that the inside local IP address (160.10.1.2) is translated to the inside global IP address
(169.10.1.2).
a. Question: does the “inside global IP address” normally represent a public or a private
IP address?

router1# show ip nat translations

5. Select Router 2 and disconnect your telnet session to Router 3.

Router3# <Control><Shift>6 x
Router2#

6. On router1, remove the previous static NAT commands and configure NAT to
translate router2’s Ethernet address to a dynamically assigned address. You will utilize a
pool of public addresses in the range of 169.10.1.50 to 169.10.1.100.
a. Question: if the pool of dynamically assigned addresses only contains one IP address
entry, what’s another term for this form of NAT translation?

router1(config)# ip nat inside source list 2 pool pool1
router1(config)# access-list 2 permit 160.10.1.0 0.0.0.255

7. Test the dynamic NAT translation function by telneting from router2 to router3. Once
into router3, issue the show users command. The output of this command should show
that the logged-in device is 169.10.1.50 (the translated address). Also, display the NAT
translation table on router1 using the show ip nat translations command.

router2# telnet 175.10.1.2

router3# show users
|router1# show ip nat translations

8. Remove the previous NAT commands. Configure NAT overloading (port address
translation) on router1 to translate router2’s Ethernet address
(160.10.1.2) to the serial0 interface address (175.10.1.1) on router1.

router1(config)# ip nat inside source list 2 interface serial0 overload

router1(config)# access-list 2 permit 160.10.1.0 0.0.0.255

9. Test the overloading (PAT) function by Telnet’ing from router2 to router3. Issue the
show users command on router3. It should show that the logged-in device is 175.10.1.1
(the translated IP address). Also, issue the show ip nat translations command on router1
to display the NAT translation table.

router2# telnet 175.10.1.2

router3# show users
router1# show ip nat translations

Lab 16 - PPP & CHAP

1. In this lab, you will configure PPP and CHAP authentication on a serial interface.
Remove all NAT/PAT configuration commands from router1 before continuing on with
this CCNA lab. On router1, issue the show interfaces serial 0 command. Note the
encapsulation type of HDLC which is the default for serial links.

router1# show interfaces serial 0

2. On router1 and router3, configure PPP encapsulation for interface S0. Note that the
link will not come up unless both ends are configured with the same encapsulation type.

routerx(config)# interface serial0

routerx(config-if)# encapsulation ppp

3. On router1 and router3, issue the show interfaces serial 0 command to verify that PPP
is configured for the link. The output should show the PPP LCP phase as ‘Open’ from
router1, ping router3 to verify the link is operational.

routerx# show interfaces serial 0

router1# ping 175.10.1.2

4. Configure PPP CHAP authentication for the S0 link on router1 and router3. Use the
password of ‘cisco’.

router1(config)# username router3 password cisco

router1(config)# interface serial 0
router1(config-if)# ppp authentication chap

router3(config)# username router1 password cisco

router3(config)# interface serial 0
router3(config-if)# ppp authentication chap

5. On router1 and router3, issue the show interfaces serial0 command to verify the link is
‘up and up’. Ping from router1 to router3 across the link.

routerx# show interfaces serial0

router1# ping 175.10.1.2

Lab 20 – Frame Relay

Router Interface IP Address Local DLCI

router1 serial 1 215.10.1.1 /24 105
router5 serial 0 215.10.1.2 /24 501

1. In this lab, you will set up frame relay PVC’s between router1 and router5 using both
physical interfaces and point-to-point sub interfaces. Both routers will be frame relay
DTE devices connected to a frame relay cloud.

2. Using physical interfaces (no sub interfaces), configure frame relay on router1’s serial1
interface and router5’s serial0 interface. Refer to the chart above for IP addresses and
local DLCI’s. Both routers will use ANSI as their lmi-type. Frame relay map statements
should be used for static mapping.
a. Question: what is the default lmi-type on Cisco routers?

router1(config)# interface serial1

router1(config-if)# encapsulation frame-relay
router1(config-if)# ip address 215.10.1.1 255.255.255.0
router1(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 215.10.1.2 105 broadcast
router1(config-if)# frame-relay lmi-type ansi
router1(config-if)# no shut

Router(config)# hostname router5

router5(config)# interface serial0
router5(config-if)# encapsulation frame-relay
router5(config-if)# ip address 215.10.1.2 255.255.255.0
router5(config-if)# frame-relay map ip 215.10.1.1 501 broadcast
router5(config-if)# frame-relay lmi-type ansi
router5(config-if)# no shut

3. Issue the show interfaces serial x command on both router1 and router5. This will
show if the routers are successfully connected to their local frame relay switches. The
status on the first line should be ‘up and line protocol is up’. On the fifth line of output,
you should also see ‘DTE LMI up’. The encapsulation type should be frame relay.

router1# show interfaces serial1

router5# show interfaces serial0

4. Issue the show frame-relay map command on router1 and router5. This will show the
mapping of local DLCI’s to remote IP addresses.

routerx# show frame-relay map

___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
5. Issue the show frame-relay pvc command on router1 and router5. This will show the
status of the PVC’s connected to the routers. You want to
see a status of ‘active’ which indicates the PVC is operational end-to-end.

routerx# show frame-relay pvc

6. Issue the show frame-relay lmi command on router1.

This will show LMI statistics including how many status inquiries and replies have been
exchanged.

router1# show frame-relay lmi

7. Ping router1 from router5 to verify the frame-relay connection is working correctly.

router5# ping 215.10.1.1

8. You will now create point-to-point sub interfaces on router1 and router5.
You will use the same IP addresses and local DLCI’s as in the previous exercise.
It will be necessary to remove the IP addresses and frame map statements from the
physical interfaces prior to configuring the sub interfaces.

router1(config)# interface serial1

router1(config-if)# no ip address 215.10.1.1 255.255.255.0
router1(config-if)# no frame map ip 215.10.1.2 105 broadcast

router1(config-subif)# ip address 215.10.1.1 255.255.255.0
router1(config-subif)# frame-relay interface-dlci 105

router5(config)# interface serial0

router5(config-if)# no ip address 215.10.1.2 255.255.255.0
router5(config-if)# no frame map ip 215.10.1.1 501 broadcast
router5(config-if)# interface serial0.1 point-to-point
router5(config-subif)# ip address 215.10.1.2 255.255.255.0
router5(config-subif)# frame-relay interface-dlci 501

9. On both router1 and router5, issue the show ip interface brief command to insure the
physical interfaces and sub interfaces are active (status = up and up). Issue a show frame
relay pvc command on both routers to insure the PVC with DLCI 105 on router1 and
DLCI 501 on router5 is active.

routerx# show ip interface brief

routerx# show frame-relay pvc

10. Test the PVC by pinging from router5 to router1.

Appendix B: ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

Lab 1 - Basic Router Configuration

9a. Question: When both encrypted and unencrypted enable passwords are configured,
which one is used?
• Answer: The enable secret (encrypted) password is used and the enable password is
ignored.

18a. Question: does anything exist in NVRAM? If not, why not?

• Answer: No - nothing will be saved to NVRAM until you do a copy running-config
startup-config.

21a. Question: What IOS release is running router1? Answer: 12.1(9)T

b. Question: What are the contents of the configuration register? Answer:
0x’2102’

22a. Question: which protocols are currently running on the router?

• Answer: IP is the only protocol currently running on the router. IP is supported by
default on the Cisco router. Routing for
other layer 3 protocols must be turned on explicitly using commands such as ipx routing
or decnet routing.

26a. Question: what status should interface E0/0 show if it is fully activated?
• Answer: ‘Ethernet is up and Line Protocol is Up’
b. Question: what status would E0/0 show if it was in ‘shutdown’ mode?
• Answer: ‘Administratively Down’

27a. Question: Were you successful? If not what commands should you use for
trouble-shooting?
• Answer: If you cannot successfully ping router1, you should use:
1. show interfaces: to verify the interface(s) are up
2. show run: to verify the IP addresses and subnet masks are correct

Lab 2 – Advanced Router Configuration

9a. Question: what is the name of the IOS image in flash and how large is it?
• Answer: c2500-js-mz.121-9.T.bin; 5.88MB

Lab 3 – CDP

4a. Question: what is the CDP advertisement interval:

• Answer: CDP advertises information every 60 seconds by default.
b. Question: what is the holdtime interval and what does it signify?
• Answer: The default holdtime interval is 180 secs. This is how long the remote device
should keep this
___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
CDP advertisement information in its tables if it doesn’t receive another CDP
advertisement from this device.

Lab 5 – TFTP

7a. Question: was it necessary to clear out router4’s NVRAM in order to copy a file
into it? Why?
• Answer: No. When you copy a file into NVRAM, it will overwrite completely what’s
in there. When you copy a file into DRAM (running-config),
however, it merges that file with what is already in there.

Lab 6 - RIP

1a. Question: On router1, why doesn’t the network statement under RIP specify
160.10.1.0 rather than 160.10.0.0?
• Answer: The network statement under both RIP and IGRP must specify a classful
network number (A, B, or C address). It cannot be a subnet.
160.10.1.0 is a subnet, not a classful address.

2a. Question: how frequently does RIP advertise routing updates?

• Answer: every 30 seconds.
b. Question: what is the holddown interval for RIP?
• Answer: 180 seconds.

3a. Question: what is the administrative distance for RIP?

• Answer: 120.

Lab 7 – IGRP

3a. Question: how frequently does IGRP send out routing updates?
• Answer: every 90 seconds.
b. Question: what is the holddown interval for IGRP?
• Answer: 280 seconds.
c. Question: what is the default hop count for IGRP?
• Answer: 100 (maximum of 100 routers along the path).

4a. Question: what is the administrative distance for IGRP?

• Answer: 100.

6a. Question: what is the difference between the two debug ip igrp commands?
• Answer: the debug ip igrp events command traces IGRP routing updates without
showing individual network numbers.
The debug ip igrp transactions command shows routing updates with individual network
numbers that are being advertised or received.

Lab 8 – EIGRP
___________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright (c) 2004 Boson. All Rights Reserved.
3a. Question: what is the maximum router hop count with EIGRP? Answer: 100 hops.

6a. Question: what does the EIGRP topology database contain?

• Answer: the EIGRP topology database contains primary and backup routes to each
destination learned from EIGRP neighbors.
The ‘best routes’ (those with the lowest composite metric) are termed successor routes
and are inserted in the IP routing table on the router.

7a. Question: what is the administrative distance for EIGRP? Answer: 90.

Lab 9 – OSPF

3a. Question: how frequently does OSPF send routing updates.

• Answer: OSPF is a link state routing protocol and does not send out periodic routing
updates.
OSPF will flood a Link State Advertisement (LSA) when a topology change occurs.

5a. Question: what is the OSPF cost for a 10Mbps Ethernet interface?
• Answer: the default cost is 10 which is calculated by dividing the speed of the interface
into 100,000,000.
The default cost can be overridden using the ip ospf cost interface-level command.

6a. Question: what is the administrative distance for OSPF? Answer: 110.

Lab 10 – 1900 Switch Configuration

4a. Question: do you need to issue copy running-config startup-config on the

Catalyst 1900 to save the running configuration? If not, why not?
• Answer: No – the Catalyst 1900 automatically saves any configuration changes you

Lab 11 – VLANs and Trunking (Catalyst 1900 Switches)

5a. Question: what VTP operating mode are the switches in?
• Answer: the Catalyst 1900 switch defaults to ‘server’ mode.

6a. Question: do you see any ports connected to VLAN 10. If not, why not?
• Answer: No. Although VLAN 10 has been created, no ports have been manually
assigned to it, as yet.

8a. Question: if both devices are in the same VLAN, why should the pings fail?
• Answer: The link connecting switch1 and switch2 is still in VLAN 1.
It must be configured to be in VLAN 10 or configured as a trunk line which, by
definition, is capable of supporting all VLANs.

9a. Question: what trunking protocol does the 1900 use – ISL or 802.1Q?
• Answer: ISL.

Lab 12 – Catalyst 2950 Switch Configuration

4a. Question: Do you need to issue copy running-config startup-config on the Catalyst
2950 to save the running configuration?
• Answer: Yes. The active configuration is not automatically saved to NVRAM on the
2950.

9a. Question: What is the Spanning Tree (802.1D) state of interface fa0/1?
• Answer: forwarding.
b. Question: What is the duplex setting for interface fa0/2?
• Answer: auto – 10//100 ports default to auto-negotiate on the 2950.

12a. Question: what is the address of the root bridge? Answer: 000C 1835 8565
b. Question: what is the port cost of fa0/1? Answer: 19
c. Question: what is the maxage interval? Answer: 20 seconds
d. Question: what is the hello interval? Answer: 2 seconds

Lab 13 – VLANs and Trunking (Catalyst 2950 Switches)

• Answer: No. Although VLAN 20 has been created, no ports have been manually
assigned to it, as yet.

8a. Question: if both devices are in the same VLAN, why should the pings fail?
• Answer: The link connecting switch3 and switch4 is still in VLAN 1.
It must be configured to be in VLAN 20 or configured as a trunk line which, by
definition, is capable of supporting all VLANs.

• Answer: the 2950 only supports 802.1Q.

Lab 14 – IP Access-Lists

3a. Question: is a ‘deny any’ statement required in the access-list?

• Answer: No – an implicit ‘deny any’ is at the end of every access-list.
b. Question: what does the mask 0.0.0.255 mean in the access-list?
• Answer: This is a wildcard or reverse mask. It means permit any device where the
source address starts with 175.10.1 in the first three octets.
c. Question: can any number be assigned to a standard IP access-list?
• Answer: No – standard IP access-lists are in the range 1-99 or 1300-1999..

5a. Question: what are two ways you can specify a host address in an extended
IP access-list?
• Answer: You can specify ‘host 172.16.1.1’ or ‘172.16.1.1 0.0.0.0’.
b. Question: what is the number range for extended IP access-lists?
• Answer: 100-199 or 2000-2699..
c. Question: how would you permit RIP routing updates:
• Answer: access-list 100 permit udp any any eq 520 (RIP uses UDP port 520)

Lab 15 – NAT/PAT

4a. Question: does the “inside global IP address” normally represent a public or a
private IP address?
• Answer: the inside global IP address normally represents a public, or registered IP
address.
NAT/PAT translates the inside local IP address, which is usually a private IP address, to
an inside global IP address,
which is usually a registered IP address.

5a. Question: if the pool of dynamically assigned addresses only contains one IP
address entry, what’s another term for this form of NAT translation?
• Answer: this is also known as overloading or Port Address Translation (PAT). It is
possible to configure overloading by defining one or a few
IP addresses in the dynamic address pool. This is an alternative to pointing to a physical
interface in the PAT definitions.

Lab 17 – ISDN BRI-BRI using Legacy DDR

3a. Question: what status are the B channels? Why?

• Answer: the B channels are ‘down and down’ since no calls are active.

4a. Question: which configuration parameter(s) on router1 identifies the

interesting traffic that will trigger a call?

___________________________________________________________________________________

• Answer: the dialer-list and dialer-group commands are used to identify
‘interesting traffic’

5a. Question: what does it show for ‘Layer 3 Status’?

• Answer: It should show ‘1 Active Layer 3 Call’

6a. Question: what is the status of the two B channels?

• Answer: Now that a call has been established, one of the B channels should be ‘up and
line protocol up’.
The other one should still have a status of down and down.

Lab 19 – ISDN PRI using Dialer Profiles

1a. Question: if this PRI was being configured in Europe, what would the options be for
controller type, framing, and linecode?
• Answer: In Europe, the controller type is E1; the framing is either crc4 or no-crc4, and
the linecode is hdb3.
b. Question: On the PRI interface statement, what is the significance of :23?
• Answer: 23 represents the ISDN signaling channel on the PRI/T1 link. It is the 24th
time-slot on the T1 link.
