$$ Objectives: create a simple network with $6$ PCs$,2$ switches, and a routers.

$$ Identify the proper cable to connect the PCs to the switches. Identify the proper cables to connect a PC and router to each switch. Configure workstation and router IP address information. Test connectivity using the Ping command.

$1.$ Setup the following topology $($using only straight$-$through cable and FastEthernet ports$).$

$1.$ Configure the PCs with the following IP address information

$2.$ Include the default gateway as the computers are not directly connected. We essentially have two separate LANs, each connected to its own router.

$3.$ On the LAN with Switch$0,$ we will call this the $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}0$ network

On the LAN with Switch$1,$ we will call this the $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}0$ network

$4.$ Now will configure the router. Open the router and click the Config tab.

$5.$ On this tab, you can change the Display Name or Hostname of the router $($if you want$).$

$6.$ Click on the FastEthernet$0/0$ interface on the left

$7.$ Configure the router with the following IP address information

IP Address Subnet Mask

FastEthernet$0/0192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}1255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}0$

FastEthernet$1/0192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}1255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}0$

$8.$ Make sure you tick the port status to be $$on$$

$9.$ Carry out the same procedure for FastEthernet$1/0$ interface

$10.$ From PC$0($on the $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}0$ network$)$ ping PC$3(192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}2\mathrm{.}0$ network$)$

$11.$ Attach a screenshot of your successful ping here!
