NC101 Module 2

The document provides instructions for connecting two computers using a crossover network. It outlines the steps to configure the IP addresses, subnet masks, and default gateways for each computer. The IP addresses assigned are 192.168.1.101 for Computer 1 and 192.168.1.102 for Computer 2. Students are instructed to insert one end of the crossover cable into each computer's network interface card. They then configure the IPv4 settings and use the ping command to test the network connection between the two computers.

Lesson 2

Connecting two computer using Crossover


networks
Objectives
At the end of this exercise, the students are expected to be able to:
 configure IP address, subnet mask and default gateway
 creates network connection between two computers
 learn how to check the network connection between two computers
using ping command in command prompt or CMD

Materials
 Crossover Ethernet cables created in Activity 1.
 Two desktop or laptop computers

Steps
1. Insert one end of crossover cable to the network interface card of computer 1
and the other one to the network interface card of computer 2.
*Check the LED of network interface cards of both computers to know if they are
already connected. If the LEDs are not blinking, maybe the network cable is
broken.
So you have to create a network cable. If the LEDs are blinking, you can
proceed.
2. Open Control Panel of both computers.

1
*Go to this path, Control Panel/ Network and Internet/ Network and Sharing

Center.

4. Click Properties.

5. Double click on Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)

2
6. The picture of the IP Version 4 window below should pop. Select
Use the following IP address.

Let’s use the following IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.
PC1 (Computer 1) PC2 (Computer 2)
IP address: 192.168.1.101 IP address: 192.168.1.102
Subnet mask: Automatic Subnet mask: Automatic
Default gateway: 192.168.1.1 Default gateway: 192.168.1.1
It’s OK to just leave the Default gateway blank but make sure you have set the IP
address and subnet mask.

Now you can set the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway.

3
PC1 IPv4 Configuration

PC2 IPv4 Configuration

Click OK to save the IPv4 configuration.


Open CMD or command prompt to check the network connection.
Use ping command to check the connection.
-t is use in ping command to loop.
In PC1, type ping 192.168.1.102-t
In PC2, type ping 192.168.1.101-t 4
It should look like the picture below.
If you see something like the picture below, you should double check everything
you have done from step 1.
Maybe the network cable is broken or the configuration is not properly setup.
