Lab 2: Implementation of Various LAN topologies using Cisco


Packet Tracer
Steps:
⬛ Goal: Create different LAN topologies like Bus, Star, Ring.

1. Drag one Switch (from Switches → ex: 2960 model).


2. Drag multiple PCs (like 4 PCs).
3. Connections:
o Use Copper Straight-Through Cable.
o Connect each PC's FastEthernet0 to the Switch's different ports (Fa0/1,
Fa0/2, etc.).
4. Assign IPs (similar to Lab 1) to each PC:
o Example:
 PC0: 192.168.1.2
 PC1: 192.168.1.3
 PC2: 192.168.1.4
 PC3: 192.168.1.5
5. Test Connectivity:
o Ping between PCs.
–− Similarly, you can create Bus topology (use hubs) or Ring topology (connect
PC to PC using cross cables).

Lab 1: Introduction of Cisco Packet Tracer & Create a connection


between two devices using Wire Connection.

Steps:
1. Open Cisco Packet Tracer.
2. Drag two PCs onto the workspace:
o Go to End Devices → Select PC → Drag 2 PCs onto the screen.
3. Select a cable:
o Go to Connections (the lightning bolt icon).
o Choose Copper Cross-Over Cable (for connecting two similar devices like
PC-to-PC).
4. Connect PCs:
o Click on PC0 → Choose FastEthernet0.
o Then click on PC1 → Choose FastEthernet0.
5. Assign IP addresses:
o Click PC0 → Desktop Tab → IP Configuration → Set:
 IP address: 192.168.1.1
 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
o Click PC1 → Set:
 IP address: 192.168.1.2
 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
6. Test the connection:
o Go to PC0 → Command Prompt → Type : ping 192.168.1.2
o You should get replies!

Lab 4: Demonstration of Static IP Configuration using Cisco Packet


Tracer.

Goal: Set Static IPs on Devices.


Steps:
1. Select a PC → Desktop Tab → IP Configuration.
2. Disable DHCP (if there is any).
3. Manually set:
o IP Address (e.g., 192.168.10.5)
o Subnet Mask (e.g., 255.255.255.0)
o Default Gateway (if router is used, e.g., 192.168.10.1).
4. Repeat for each device.
5. Ping to test.

Lab 5: Demonstration of Dynamic IP Configuration through RIP


using Cisco Packet Tracer.

Goal: Connect two routers and configure RIP for dynamic routing.
Steps:
1. Devices: 2 Routers, 2 Switches, 2 PCs.
2. Connections: PC → Switch → Router → Router → Switch → PC.
3. IP Addressing: Assign IPs to PCs and Router interfaces (same subnet on each
side).
4. Router Configuration:
router rip
version 2
network [network address]
5. Test: Ping between PCs — if RIP works, it will succeed.

Lab 6: Demonstration of Subnetting using Cisco Packet Tracer.

Goal: Divide a big network into multiple smaller networks (subnets).


Steps:
1. Given Network: Example — 192.168.1.0/24.
2. Subnetting: Break into smaller subnets (e.g., /26, /28).
3. Assign IPs: Assign subnet IPs to PCs and Router interfaces.
4. Connections: PC → Switch → Router.
5. Test: Ping PCs — successful if correct subnetting is done.
