PART $2$: CONFIGURE BASIC SWITCH SETTINGS

Now, the work of implementing the design can begin.

$2\mathrm{.}1$ Configure basic switch settings

NOTE: All switches in Project $1$ share the same basic switch configuration requirements. If you save the configuration to a text file, you will be able to use it later to configure the remaining switches. The only differences in the basic configurations are the hostnames.

Configure the basic functions in all three switches as follows:

$$ Configure hostnames o The switches are labeled; the hostname must match the device label. Do not change device labels, as this may result in grading mistakes;

$$ Configure domain name acme$-$university.edu

$$ Disable DNS lookup

$$ Set SSH to version $2$ only and generate an SSH key using a $2048-$bit modulus.

$$ Set the enable secret to class

$$ Set the console password to cisco

$$ Set the line vty $015$ passwords to CMIT$-351$

$$ Users must use the abovementioned passwords to log in to Console and VTY lines.

$$ Connections to the console and vty lines should be terminated after $30$ minutes of inactivity.

$$ Set VTY lines to accept only encrypted SSH connections

$$ Set logging to synchronous for Console and VTY lines

$$ Set the MOTD banner to $$Unauthorized access is strictly prohibited!$$

$2\mathrm{.}2$ Configure the computers

Using the table below, assign IP addresses to the computers:

Name IP Address

PC$-$A $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}10\mathrm{.}3/24$

PC$-$B $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}10\mathrm{.}4/24$

PC$-$C $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}20\mathrm{.}3/25$

PC$-$M $192\mathrm{.}168\mathrm{.}1\mathrm{.}7/26$

$2\mathrm{.}3$ Part $2$ Summary

In Part $2,$ you configured all three switches and assigned IP addresses to the computers. You should be able to ping PC$-$A and PC$-$B from each other.
