Instructions
Step 1: Configure basic settings on the Clinic-R1 router.
In order to be scored as correct, the values that you configure must match the exact values that are provided unless otherwise noted. Configure the following:
- The router name: Clinic-R1
- The enable secret (privileged EXEC mode) password: 678efG
- An MOTD banner. You can use any text for this.
- The console line should require a password for all logins. Use a password of 123abC
- The VTY lines should require a password for remote access. Use a password of 345cdE
- All passwords should automatically be encrypted.
Answers: (The passwords (red font) may be different.)
Use console cable to connect Clinic PC and Clinic-R1 (detail)
Router(config)#hostname Clinic-R1 Clinic-R1(config)#enable secret 678efG Clinic-R1(config)#banner motd #Unauthorized access to this device is prohibited!# Clinic-R1(config)#line console 0 Clinic-R1(config-line)#password 123abC Clinic-R1(config-line)#login Clinic-R1(config-line)#line vty 0 15 Clinic-R1(config-line)#password 345cdE Clinic-R1(config-line)#login Clinic-R1(config-line)#service password-encryption
Step 2: Configure the LAN interfaces of the Clinic-R1 router.
Configure the interfaces as follows:
- Activate both LAN interfaces of Clinic-R1.
- Address both LAN interfaces using the information in the addressing table.
Answers:
Clinic-R1(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet 0/0 Clinic-R1(config-if)#ip address 10.1.0.254 255.255.255.0 Clinic-R1(config-if)#no shutdown Clinic-R1(config-if)#interface gigabitEthernet 0/1 Clinic-R1(config-if)#ip address 10.2.0.254 255.255.255.252 Clinic-R1(config-if)#no shutdown
Step 3: Configure remote management on the Clinic-S1 switch.
Configure the switch SVI by using the default management interface as follows:
- Activate the interface.
- Address the interface according to the values shown in the addressing table.
- Determine the address to use as the switch default gateway from the addressing table. Configure the switch default gateway. The switch should be reachable from other networks.
Answers:
Switch(config)#interface vlan 1 Switch(config-if)#ip address 10.1.0.200 255.255.255.0 Switch(config-if)#no shutdown Switch(config-if)#exit Switch(config)#ip default-gateway 10.1.0.254
Step 4: Configure the Clinic-S1 switch to use SSH for remote connections.
Remote connections to the switch should use SSH to connect. All configured values must match the values provided below exactly. Configure SSH by using the following:
- Domain name: medical
- Switch name: Clinic-S1
- Crypto key modulus: 1024
- Configure local login on the VTY lines
- Incoming connections should use the SSH protocol.
- Create a user named tech
- The user should be required to use a password of 1234eF
Note: In order to access privileged EXEC mode remotely from a SSH client, a privileged EXEC mode password must be set. This is not a requirement for this assessment.
Answers:
Switch(config)#ip domain-name medical Switch(config)#hostname Clinic-S1 Clinic-S1(config)#crypto key generate rsa How many bits in the modulus [512]: 1024 % Generating 1024 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK] Clinic-S1(config)#line vty 0 15 Clinic-S1(config-line)#transport input ssh Clinic-S1(config-line)#login local Clinic-S1(config-line)#exit Clinic-S1(config)#username tech password 1234eF
Step 5: Configure the Clinic WLAN wireless network device.
Configure the wireless network device with addresses, DHCP settings, and wireless network settings. Be certain to save your settings before moving between screens in the device configuration GUI.
1. Establish a connection with the Clinic WLAN device from host Clinic Admin.
- a. Connect an Ethernet cable from Clinic Admin to any LAN port on the Clinic WLAN device. Do not delete this connection.
- b. Use the addressing table to provide an IP address and mask to Clinic Admin.
- c. Use the browser on Clinic Admin to connect to the router IP address of the wireless device. Use admin as both the user name and password.
Note: You may need to wait until the link lights on both ends of the Ethernet cable are green before you can connect to the Clinic WLAN wireless network device from host Clinic Admin.
2. Configure the Internet interface of the device according to the values in the addressing table.
3. Configure DHCP as follows:
- a. Configure the router IP address and mask with the values shown in the addressing table. Save this setting to update the pool of addresses that will be used by DHCP.
- b. Set the first address to be used to 192.168.0.120.
- c. DHCP should provide 25 IP addresses for hosts on the LAN.
4. Configure wireless settings as follows:
- a. Use the network name of CLnet.
- b. Be sure that the SSID can be seen by hosts that are attempting to connect to the wireless LAN.
- c. Secure the wireless LAN with WPA2 Personal.
- d. Use AES for encryption.
- e. The passphrase should be efgh6789.
Step 6: Configure the Clinic PC and Clinic Mobile hosts.
Configure the wired and wireless hosts as follows.
1. Configure the Clinic PC host with the addressing values shown in the addressing table.
2. Configure the Clinic Mobile host to connect to the wireless network using the values that you configured in Step 5.
Enter efgh6789 and click "Connect"
3. The Clinic Mobile host will receive its network addressing information over DHCP.
Verify connectivity. If you have configured everything correctly the Clinic PC and Clinic Mobile hosts should be able to connect to the Health Net. In addition, the Clinic-S1 switch should be reachable by the Clinic PC and Clinic Mobile hosts and the Health Net server.
