Objectives Part 1: Configure the Network Topology and Initiate Devices Adapting cable equipment to the network's topology. Restart and initialise the router and switch. Configure Devices and Verify Connectivity in Part 2 Assign IPv4 and IPv6 information that is static to the PC interfaces. Configure the router's basic settings. Configure SSH on the router. Verify connection to the network. Display Router Information in Section 3 Retrieve the router's hardware and software details. Interpret the starting configuration's output. Determine how to interpret the routing table's output. Verify the interfaces' current status. Context / Scenario This is a full lab review for IOS router commands previously studied. In Parts 1 and 2, you will connect the equipment and configure the router's interface and basic settings. In Part 3, you will use SSH to establish a remote connection to the router using IOS commands to get information from the device in order to answer qu...

  Objectives Part 1: Connect the network cables and confirm the default switch configuration. Part2: Configure fundamental network device settings Configure the switch's basic settings. Configure the IP address of the PC. Part 3: Validate and test network connectivity Display configuration of the device. Ping is used to test end-to-end connectivity. Telnet is used to test remote management capabilities. Part 4: Administration of the MAC Address Table Record the host's MAC address. Determine the MAC addresses learned by the switch. List the options for the show mac address-table command. Configure a fixed MAC address. Context / Scenario The switch virtual interface is an IP address that can be configured on Cisco switches (SVI). The management address, or SVI, can be used for remote access to the switch in order to display or configure settings. If an IP address is assigned to the SVI of VLAN 1, all ports in VLAN 1 have access to that IP address by default. In this lab, you will...
