Create the Following Networks with Packet Tracer

Create the Following Networks with Packet Tracer

AF_IC02_U5. Dynamic Network Configuration
Unit 5. Practical work 2. Cisco DHCP configuration

Introduction

In this exercise, we will go further in the knowledge of DHCP protocol, as well as its configuration, settings and features. A Cisco 1841 router will be used for this task, and Packet Tracer software to perform simulations.

Objectives

  • Work in a Cisco environment.
  • Know the procedures to configure a router.
  • Become familiar with text command line.

Initialization

Create the following networks with Packet Tracer:

First of all, provide IP addresses for all devices that they do not need DHCP configuration. You must also make a diagram of the network with all the provided IPs (it must be clear).

Computers must receive IP addresses through DHCP service, each one from the corresponding network.

TO KNOW MORE
If you want to know more about Cisco Packet Tracer, take a look at the following website. In order to download the software, you need to have access to the Cisco Netacad platform.

Exercise

Begin using network 192.168.1.0/24. Configure the router so that it gives an IP from an IP address range. Remember to exclude fixed addresses. Do the same for the other networks.

Summary

Write in a table how you performed the following tasks:

  1. Provide a range of addresses for a set of machines in a LAN.
  2. Always give the same IP on the same machine through DHCP.
  3. Specify gateway and DNS servers via a DHCP server.
  4. Find out how you can find a list of provided leases.
  5. List other features that can be specified (by DHCP service).

Hint: Cisco Packet Tracer is a router simulator. That means that possibly not all the features are simulated. If you cannot do one of the steps with the simulator, just explain how to do it.

Extension

Write a HTML page (for example a table containing your classroom timetable) and upload it to Server0. Then, configure routers with a chosen routing protocol so that PC4 can see the website from Server0. Explain all the steps you have done and why. You can use RIP, OSPF, EIGRP or static routes.
