Lab Difficulty:
This lab has a difficulty rating of 5/10.
Readiness Assessment:
When you are ready for your certification exam, you should complete this lab in no more than 10 minutes.
Lab Topology:
Please use the following topology to complete this lab exercise:
Task 1:
Configure hostnames on R1 as illustrated in the topology.
Task 2:
Configure IP addresses on the Gig interface of R1 as illustrated in the topology.
Task 3:
Configure an SNMP Read-Only community called Public. Configure an SNMP Read-Write community called Private.
Task 4:
Configure a standard ACL numbered 10 and add it to the SNMP Private community to allow SNMP access from server 1 only.
Task 5:
Run the show snmp community command and make sure that the right communities are created, and that ACL 10 is being used in the appropriate community.
