a$.$ Configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings on PC$-$A$.$

b$.$ Configure the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway settings on PC$-$B$.$

c$.$ Ping PC$-$B from a command prompt window on PC$-$A$.$

Note: If pings are not successful, the Windows Firewall may need to be turned off.

Question:

Why were the pings not successful?

Step $2$: Configure the router.

a$.$ Console into the router and enable privileged EXEC mode.

Open configuration window

b$.$ Enter configuration mode.

c$.$ Assign a device name to the router.

d$.$ Disable DNS lookup to prevent the router from attempting to translate incorrectly entered commands as though they were host names.

e$.$ Assign class as the privileged EXEC encrypted password.

f$.$ Assign cisco as the console password and enable login$.$

g$.$ Assign cisco as the VTY password and enable login$.$

h$.$ Encrypt the plaintext passwords.

i$.$ Create a banner that warns anyone accessing the device that unauthorized access is prohibited.

j$.$ Configure and activate both interfaces on the router.

k$.$ Configure an interface description for each interface indicating which device is connected to it$.$

l$.$ To enable IPv$6$ routing, enter the command ipv$6$ unicast$-$routing.

R$1($config$)$# ipv$6$ unicast$-$routing

m$.$ Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.

n$.$ Set the clock on the router.

Note: Use the question mark $(?)$ to help with the correct sequence of parameters needed to execute this command.

Close configuration window

o$.$ Ping PC$-$B from a command prompt window on PC$-$A$.$

Note: If pings are not successful, the Windows Firewall may need to be turned off.

Question:

Were the pings successful? Explain.

Step $3$: Configure the switch.

In this step, you will configure the hostname, the VLAN $1$ interface and its default gateway.

Open configuration window

a$.$ Console into the switch and enable privileged EXEC mode.

b$.$ Enter configuration mode.

c$.$ Assign a device name to the switch.

d$.$ Disable DNS lookup to prevent the router from attempting to translate incorrectly entered commands as though they were host names.

e$.$ Configure and activate the VLAN interface on the switch S$1.$

f$.$ Configure the default gateway for the switch S$1.$

g$.$ Save the running configuration to the startup configuration file.

Step $4$: Verify connectivity end$-$to$-$end connectivity.

a$.$ From PC$-$A$,$ ping PC$-$B$.$

b$.$ From S$1,$ ping PC$-$B$.$

All the pings should be successful.

Close configuration window

Part $3$: Display Device Information

In Part $3,$ you will use show commands to retrieve interface and routing information from the router and switch.

Step $1$: Display the routing table on the router.

a$.$ Use the show ip route command on the router R$1$ to answer the following questions.

Open configuration window

Questions:

What code is used in the routing table to indicate a directly connected network?

Type your answers here.

How many route entries are coded with a C code in the routing table?

Type your answers here.

What interface types are associated to the C coded routes?

Type your answers here.

b$.$ Use the show ipv$6$ route command on router R$1$ to display the IPv$6$ routes.

Step $2$: Display interface information on the router R$1.$

a$.$ Use the show ip interface g$0/0/1$ to answer the following questions.

Questions:

What is the operational status of the G$0/0/1$ interface?

Type your answers here.

What is the Media Access Control $($MAC$)$ address of the G$0/1$ interface?

Type your answers here.

How is the Internet address displayed in this command?

Type your answers here.

b$.$ For the IPv$6$ information, enter the show ipv$6$ interface interface command.

Step $3$: Display a summary list of the interfaces on the router and switch.

There are several commands that can be used to verify an interface configuration. One of the most useful of these is the show ip interface brief command. The command output displays a summary list of the interfaces on the device and provides immediate feedback to the status of each interface.

a$.$ Enter the show ip interface brief command on the router R$1.$

R$1$# show ip interface brief

b$.$ To see the IPv$6$ interface information, enter the show ipv$6$ interface brief command on R$1.$

R$1$# show ipv$6$ interface brief

Close configuration window

c$.$ Enter the show ip interface brief command on the switch S$1.$
