Lab - Design and Build a Small Network Objectives Explain how a small network of directly connected segments is created, configured, and verified. Final Report After completing the design, you need to submit a report to me by describing the steps, procedures, and results with all support materials, including important screenshots and source codes where applicable. What is a good lab report to me? A good report is that if I use your report, it should be easy for me to set up, follow the steps described and obtain the same results that you did. In other words, it should be repeatable to me. Background/Scenario Note: This is a group activity (use existing groups). Design and build a network from scratch. Your design must include a minimum of one Cisco 4321 router, two Cisco 2960 switches, and two PCs (Physical Topology). Create a small network of directly connected segments, at a minimum 1 router, 2 switches and 2 PCs, and include a screenshot of the network in your final documentation. Fully configure the network and use IPv4 or IPv6 (subnetting must be included as a part of your addressing scheme). Verify the network using at least five show commands. Secure the network using SSH, secure passwords and console passwords (minimum). Create a table showing your physical addressing scheme for the router, switch, and PC and include it in your final documentation. Required Resources Packet Tracer Reflection Questions 1. What was the most difficult portion of this activity? 2. Why do you think network documentation is so important to this activity and in the real world?
