Objectives
- Configure hostnames and IP addresses on two Cisco Internetwork Operating System (IOS) switches using the command-line interface (CLI).
- Use Cisco IOS commands to specify or limit access to the device configurations.
- Use IOS commands to save the running configuration.
- Configure two host devices with IP addresses.
- Verify connectivity between the two PC end devices.
Scenario
As a recently hired LAN technician, your network manager has asked you to demonstrate your ability to configure a small LAN. Your tasks include configuring initial settings on two switches using the Cisco IOS and configuring IP address parameters on host devices to provide end-to-end connectivity. You are to use two switches and two hosts/PCs on a cabled and powered network.
Instructions
Configure the devices to fulfill the requirements below.
Requirements
- Use a console connection to access each switch.
- Name Class-A and Class-B switches.
Switch(config)# hostname Class-A
Switch(config)# hostname Class-B
- Use the R4Xe3 password for all lines.
Class-A(config)# line console 0 Class-A(config-line)# password R4Xe3 Class-A(config-line)# login Class-A(config)# line vty 0 15 Class-A(config-line)# password R4Xe3 Class-A(config-line)# login
Class-B(config)# line console 0 Class-B(config-line)# password R4Xe3 Class-B(config-line)# login Class-B(config)# line vty 0 15 Class-B(config-line)# password R4Xe3 Class-B(config-line)# login
- Use the C4aJa secret password.
Class-A(config)# enable secret C4aJa
Class-B(config)# enable secret C4aJa
- Encrypt all clear text passwords.
Class-A(config)# service password-encryption
Class-B(config)# service password-encryption
- Configure an appropriate message-of-the-day (MOTD) banner.
Class-A(config)# banner motd #Unauthorized access to this device is prohibited!#
Class-B(config)# banner motd #Unauthorized access to this device is prohibited!#
- Configure addressing for all devices according to the Addressing Table.
Class-A(config)# interface vlan 1 Class-A(config-if)# ip address 128.107.20.10 255.255.255.0 Class-A(config-if)# no shutdown
Class-B(config)# interface vlan 1 Class-B(config-if)# ip address 128.107.20.15 255.255.255.0 Class-B(config-if)# no shutdown
- Save your configurations.
Class-A# copy running-config startup-config
Class-B# copy running-config startup-config
- Verify connectivity between all devices.
C:\> ping 128.107.20.10 C:\> ping 128.107.20.15 C:\> ping 128.107.20.30
