Net Admin 2 – Practical
you need to create your own network in Packet Tracer and complete all of the steps given. Please use the network and names provided. You may use any resource found on D2L or Netacad, including labs, personal notes or previous Zoom sessions to assist you. You may not ask for help to complete the exam or have someone else do the work for you. If you need some clarification on the exam, please email me. When you are finished, please upload the completed Packet Tracer File AND this completed document to the appropriate assignment box in D2L. If necessary, feel free to print out this document, complete it and then snap a picture of it to upload to D2L.
PART A: Build Your Own Network
Step 1: Create the initial topology.
Open up Packet Tracer and create a network topology that includes the following components: one router (suggested: 2911), one switch (suggested: 2960) and two desktop computers. The desktop computers will represent the SALES and MARKETING networks and should both be connected to the same switch. That switch should also be connected to the router.
Connect all of the devices with the appropriate cable (you will need to use both straight through and crossover cables).
Step 2: Please use the following Subnets in your network and fill out the chart.
Network Name
and VLAN
Network Address and SNM
First Useable IP in that VLAN/Subnet
Last Useable IP in that VLAN/Subnet
Broadcast Address
Subnet Mask in CIDR Notation
Sales Network
VLAN 22
192.168.22.0
255.255.255.0
Marketing Network
VLAN 33
192.168.33.0
255.255.255.0
Management and Native VLAN 44
192.168.44.0
255.255.255.0
Step 3: Security Settings
On the Router AND Switch:
a. Apply a hostname using your last name in the title. Example: (WIENS-rtr, WIENS-switch).
On the Switch
Apply Enable, VTY and Console line passwords. ***PLEASE SET ALL PASSWORDS to: “cisco”.
Apply a MOTD banner
Disable DNS Lookup
Encrypt all of the passwords
Assign an IP address to the switch. This will be the Switch Virtual Interface (SVI) and allow us to access it remotely.
Step 4: Inter-VLAN Routing
Using the given subnets, configure Router on a Stick. You may want to assign an initial IP address to the desktops statically to make sure that Inter-VLAN routing is working, before you go on to step 5.
Step 5: DHCP
Configure DHCP on the router so that both desktop computers receive their IP information via DHCP.
Exclude the first 5 addresses from each subnet
Create a Pool for each of the VLANs
(***Note: You do not need to create one for the Native/Management VLAN)
On the computers, switch them over to using DHCP (they will be set to static by default)
Step 6: EtherChannel
Add an extra switch into your topology (suggestion: 2960)
Connect it to the other the switch in your network with two Ethernet links. Make sure that you use the appropriate cables (straight through vs. crossover).
Configure an EtherChannel between the two switches. You may use LACP or PAgP
Test your network
Does the network topology have all of the necessary devices, connected will of the correct cables?
Are security settings applied on the appropriate devices?
What happens when I log in? Do I see a MOTD?
Are all of the passwords set to “cisco”? Are they encrypted?
Is DNS-lookup disabled?
Is the SVI setup properly?
Is Inter-VLAN (Router on a Stick) configured properly on the network?
What happens when I type “show vlan” on the switch? Do I see all of the VLANs?
What happens when I type “show ip int brief” on the router?
Are your computers receiving an IP address via DHCP?
Can your computers ping each other and their default gateway?
Is your EtherChannel link active between the two switches?
What happens when I type “show etherchannel summary?”
Is LACP or PAgP being used?

Scenario:
You are the network administrator and have been assigned the network address above. Create “right-sized” subnets by using VLSM to support the network.
A few tips:
Start by filling out the Subnet column in the chart below starting with the largest number of host addresses and continuing to the smallest.
A PTP (Point to Point) network only needs 2 useable IP addresses
Not all IP addresses will be used, but none can be “skipped” between subnets.

Part C: Reflection
Please write a short, 1-2 paragraph reflection on a concept that what challenging to you in this class. Here are a few possible topics: VLSM, STP, EtherChannel, DHCP, IPv6, Inter-VLAN Routing. Please answer the following questions in your response:
Why, or in what way, was it challenging for you?
What were some of the resources you used to try to understand it better?
What advice would you give to a future student who is about to take this course?
Once you are finished with the exam, please upload both the Packet Tracer file AND this (completed) form to the appropriate folder on D2L!
