Intro to Packet Tracer and Deploying/Pinging Devices

Objective: Introduction to the Packet Tracer interface

Goals:

• Register for Cisco Network Academy account

• Deploy network devices in Packet Tracer

• Cable network devices together in Packet Tracer

Remember, for each lab your tech journal should include:

• A brief (one sentence) summary describing what you did in the lab.

• Any commands or instructions that you found useful and will need to use again in the future.

• Any problems you ran into during the lab, and what troubleshooting steps you took to fix them.

• Individual labs will also contain specific items to include or questions to answer within your tech journal. You'll find them at the very end of this document.

Step 0: Install Packet Tracer on your personal computer

Since the latest Packet Tracer is incompatible with our lab machines, you'll want to use the installers found here

Enter the following information in the given text boxes:

• IP Address: 192.168.3.100

• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Repeat this process for PC1, but enter the following information instead:

• IP Address: 192.168.3.200

• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Go back to the PC0 window, click on the Desktop tab, and then click the 'Command Prompt' button.

You should get a command-line terminal window. Type in the following command and hit Enter:

• ping 192.168.3.200

This will send 4 packets from PC0 to attempt to make a connection with PC1. If successful, you will see replies from PC1 appear in the terminal.

SUBMIT: A screenshot of the PC0 terminal window showing a successful ping of PC1 (2 Points)

Things to consider:

• How do you deploy workstations and switches in Packet Tracer?

• How do you connect these devices with cables?

• How do you access the command-line terminal on a Packet Tracer PC?
