Note

Configuring the IP address on the switch is not mandatory to start the switch running, but it is necessary
for remote management access to the switch.

Task 3: Explore Context-Sensitive Help


In this task, you will use context-sensitive help to locate commands and complete command syntax.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
On switch SW1, enter privileged EXEC mode and enter ? (or help) to list the available commands.
Step 2
Using the ? command, set the clock on the switch to the current time and date.
Note

Pressing the Tab key automatically completes the command if the characters that you have entered are
not ambiguous.

Step 3
Verify the current date and time using the appropriate show command.
Step 4
Type the following comment line at the prompt and then press Enter:
!ths command changuw the clck sped for the swch
Note

An exclamation point (!) at the beginning of the line indicates that you are entering a comment. The
comment will not be part of the switch configuration. Comments are a great help when you are working
on a configuration in a text editor and plan to upload it to a device.

Step 5
Press Ctrl-P or press the Up Arrow key to see the previous line. Use the editor commands Ctrl-A, Ctrl-F,
Ctrl-E, and Ctrl-B to move along the line, and use the Backspace key to delete unwanted characters.
Using the editing commands, correct the comment line to read:
!This command changes the clock speed for the switch.
Activity Verification
You have completed this task when you attain these results:
You used the system help and command-completion functions.

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

You used the built-in editor and the keystrokes for cursor navigation.

Task 4: Improve the Usability of the CLI


In this task, you will enter commands to improve the usability of the CLI. You will increase the number of
lines in the history buffer, increase the inactivity timer on the console port, and stop the attempted name
resolution of mistyped commands.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Using the show terminal command, verify that history is enabled, and determine the current history size for
the console line.
Step 2
Change the history size to 100 for the console line and verify that the change has taken place.
Note

Alternatively, you could use the begin keyword. You will see the output beginning from the first match.

Step 3
The no ip domain lookup command disables the resolution of symbolic names. If you mistype a command,
the system will not try to translate it into an IP address (it will take about 5 seconds to time out). Disable IP
domain lookup.
Step 4
The default console access EXEC timeout is set to 10 minutes. After 10 minutes of inactivity, the user is
disconnected from console access and is required to reconnect. Change this timer to 60 minutes.
Note

Make sure that you are in console line configuration mode. To execute user EXEC or privileged EXEC
commands from global configuration mode or other configuration modes or submodes, use the do
command in any configuration mode.

Step 5
The logging synchronous command synchronizes unsolicited messages and debugs privileged EXEC
command output with the input from the CLI. If you are in the middle of typing a command, status
messages will appear where you are typing. Enable synchronous logging on line console 0.
Step 6
Save your running configuration to the startup configuration.

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Activity Verification
You have completed this task when you attain these results:
You changed the history buffer size.
You disabled resolution of symbolic names.
You set the inactivity timeout on the console line to 60 minutes.

.!!!!
Success rate is 80 percent (4/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/4 ms

The ping should be successful.


Note

The ping might fail due to slow STP convergence on the SW1 switch. If the ping fails, try to issue another
ping after a few seconds.

Note

The first ICMP packet could time out because ARP needs to obtain Layer 2 addressing before the
packet can be sent out of the interface.

209.165.201.3/32 is directly connected, GigabitEthernet0/1

You should see a default route present in the table. Where did the default route come from?
Step 6
From the Branch router, ping the HQ router at 209.165.201.2.
Branch#ping 209.165.201.2
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 209.165.201.2, timeout is 2 seconds:
.!!!!
Success rate is 80 percent (4/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/4 m

The ping should be successful.


Step 7
From the Branch router, ping the server at 172.16.1.100.
Branch#ping 172.16.1.100
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.1.100, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/4 ms

The ping should be successful because the Branch router received knowledge of the default gateway from
the DHCP server. The Branch router set the default route automatically and it set the route next-hop IP
address to the IP address of the default gateway..

Ping statistics for 172.16.1.100:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),

The ping should not be successful. In the next step, you will examine why the ping is not successful.
Step 11
Return to the Branch router and establish a remote Telnet session to the HQ router at 209.165.201.2. Enable
debugging of ICMP packets using the debug ip icmp command. Direct the output of the debug messages to
the Telnet session using the terminal monitor command. Leave the console window open.

Note

Establishing remote Telnet sessions and redirecting output of the debug messages to a remote session
has not been discussed so far. In this task, it is needed only to verify that packets from PC1 actually
reach the HQ router.

Step 12
Return to PC1 and ping the server at 172.16.1.100 again. Return to the HQ Telnet session and observe the
debugging messages.

You should see one debugging message for each ping packet coming from PC1. You can see that the pings
actually reach the HQ router and replies are sent back to PC1. However, the HQ router is not aware of the
network that PC1 is coming from and therefore discards the returning packets. You can verify this
conclusion by verifying the routing table on the HQ router.
What solution could be implemented on the Branch router to overcome this problem?
Step 13
Return to the HQ Telnet session. Disable debugging and exit the Telnet session.
HQ#undebug all
All possible debugging has been turned off

Task 3: Configure NAT


In this task, you will configure dynamic NAT on the Branch router to translate the IP addresses of inside
hosts to public IP addresses. Then, you will verify the NAT configuration and connectivity from PC1 and
PC2 to the server.

L-42 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the Branch router.
Step 2
Configure a standard ACL that allows the 10.1.1.0/24 network. Use 1 as the ACL identifier. This ACL will
be used to define networks that are eligible for NAT translations.
Step 3
Create a NAT pool with the following parameters:
Pool name

NAT_POOL

Starting IP address

209.165.201.5

Ending IP address

209.165.201.10

Network mask

255.255.255.224

How many hosts that require NAT can you accommodate at the same time using this NAT pool?
Step 4
Configure the GigabitEthernet0/0 interface as the NAT inside interface.
Note

When you enable the interface as NAT inside, the router will block for approximately 1 minute. After that,
you will see a log message about the router creating NVI0 interface. This interface is used internally by
the router to perform NAT.

Step 5
Configure the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface as the NAT outside interface.
Step 6
Configure a dynamic source NAT rule that will translate inside hosts into the IP addresses that were defined
in the previously configured NAT pool. Use the previously configured ACL to specify hosts that are
eligible for translations, and use the previously configured NAT pool.
Step 7
Save the running configuration to the startup configuration.

Task 1: Add Password Protection


Following the initial configuration of the switch, where passwords have been configured for the vty lines,
two potential security holes exist. First, a security breach is possible when the vty lines have the login
process deactivated and the password is too simple. Second, security can be breached because the console
port initially is not protected by a password at all. In this task, you will secure console access and access to
privileged EXEC mode on a router and a switch.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the Branch router.

Step 7
Examine the running configuration and identify the username and password that you created.

Step 8
Secure vty lines 0 through 15. Users should be able to log in using the username ccna and password cisco
that you previously defined.
For security reasons, the passwords for console and vty access should be different. Also, in production
environments, you should use strong passwords (at least eight characters and a combination of letters,
numbers, and special characters). In the lab environment, we are using the same passwords for console and
vty access.

Task 2: Enable SSH Remote Access


Previously, you protected passwords by using encryption. However, when remote management uses the
Telnet protocol, which sends all characters in cleartext, including passwords, the potential exists for packet
capture and exploitation of this information. In this task, you will configure SSH as an alternative to Telnet.
If it is possible in your environment, it would be best to replace Telnet with SSH.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Configure the Branch router for SSH access.
Use cisco.com as the domain name. The key length should be 1024 bits. Use SSH version 2 and make SSH
the only remote access that is allowed.
Step 2
Save the changes that you made on the Branch router.

Task 3: Limit Remote Access to Selected Network


Addresses
In this task, you will create an ACL on the SW1 switch and apply it to the vty lines. The ACL will permit
remote sessions from the Branch router but not from PC1.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
On the SW1 switch, define a standard ACL that will permit only the IP address of the Branch router.
Any attempts to establish remote sessions from unauthorized devices should be logged.

at login as their legal defense for forced entry into the network. Therefore, a message that clearly states that
access is restricted should be presented when a user is attempting to access a network device (switch, router,
and so on). The Cisco IOS banner command allows you to do so.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Configure the Branch router with the following login banner message:
********** Warning *************
Access to this device is restricted to authorized persons only!
Unauthorized access is prohibited. Violators will be prosecuted.
***********************************************
Step 2
Save the changes that you made on the Branch router.
Step 3
Configure the SW1 switch with the same login banner that you used for the Branch router in the previous
step:
********** Warning *************

Task 2: Configure Port Security on a Switch


Port security is a feature that is supported on Cisco Catalyst switches that restricts a switch port to a specific
set or number of MAC addresses. In this task, you will configure port security on the switch interface that
faces the router. You will also demonstrate a port security violation.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the Branch router.
Step 2
Examine the MAC address of the Branch router interface GigabitEthernet 0/0, which faces the SW1 switch.
Write down the MAC address, which you will need to configure the port security feature.
Branch#show interfaces GigabitEthernet 0/0
GigabitEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is CN Gigabit Ethernet, address is f866.f231.7250 (bia f866.f231.7250)

Note

Your MAC address might be different from the the address that is shown in the output.

Step 3
Access the SW1 switch.
Step 4
Configure interface FastEthernet0/13, which faces the Branch router, as a static access port.
Step 5
Enable the port security feature on interface FastEthernet0/13. Manually specify the secure MAC address
f866.f231.7251 (which is not the MAC address of the Branch router).
You will simulate a port security violation by misconfiguring the secure MAC address.

L-78 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

Task 4: Configure NTP


Networks use NTP to synchronize the clocks of various devices across a network. Clock synchronization
within a network is critical for digital certificates and for correct interpretation of events within syslog data.
In this task, you will configure the Branch router as an NTP client of the server. The Branch router will also
act as an NTP server for SW1 at the same time. The server has been preconfigured as the NTP server with
stratum 3.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Configure the Branch router as an NTP client of the server at 172.16.1.100.
Step 2

At this point, PC1 belongs to VLAN 10, and PC2 belongs to VLAN 20.
From PC1, ping PC2 (10.1.20.100).
The connectivity test should not be successful. You first need to configure a trunk between switches that
will carry traffic from both VLANs and then configure a Layer 3 device that will route between those two
VLANs.

Task 2: Configure the Link Between Switches as a


Trunk
In this task, you will configure the link between two switches as a trunk. This configuration will enable the
link to carry traffic from multiple VLANs.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
On switch SW1, configure the link toward switch SW2 (FastEthernet0/3) as a trunk. To follow the best
practice, allow only VLANs 1, 10, and 20 to cross the trunk. You can limit which VLANs are allowed to
traverse the trunk link with the switchport trunk allowed vlan command.
By default, ports are in DTP negotiation mode (dynamic auto). This mode presents a security risk, so the
best practice is to configure the ports manually to non-negotiation modes (access or trunk).
Repeat the same procedure on SW2.
Step 2
Save the running configuration to the startup configuration on both switches.

L-120 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Step 3
On switch SW1, verify that the link toward SW2 is trunking and that VLANs 1, 10, and 20 are the only
VLANs that are allowed.

Task 1: Configure Basic Settings, VLANs, Trunks,


and Port Security on Switches
In this task, you will first delete the existing configuration from SW1 and SW2 switches and reload them.
Then you will configure basic settings on the switches and secure administrative access to the switches.
You will also configure VLANs and trunks on the switches and put both PCs into different VLANs. Finally,
you will enable port security on the switches to prevent unauthorized access to the LAN.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the SW1 and SW2 switches.
Step 2
Delete the startup configuration from the SW1 and SW2 switches. Delete the vlan.dat file from the flash
memory of the switches and delete the VLAN information. Reload the switches in order to boot the
switches with an empty configuration.
Step 3
Configure a hostname (SW1, SW2) on the switches.
Step 4
Configure IPv4 addresses on both switches for management purposes. Assign the IP address to the VLAN 1
interface. Use the Job Aids section of the document to determine the IP address for each switch. Enable the
VLAN 1 interface.

Step 19
On the SW1 and SW2 switches, enable port security on the interfaces connecting to the PCs
(FastEthernet0/1) in order to allow only PCs to connect to the switches. You should first set up the
parameters and then enable port security; otherwise, the port will be shut down due to a port security
violation. Use the following port security parameters:
Violation action: Protect
Maximum MAC addresses: 1
MAC address: PC1 on SW1, PC2 on SW2
Activity Verification
Verification of this task will be done after configuration of inter-VLAN routing.

Task 2: Configure Inter-VLAN Routing


In this task, you will first delete the existing configuration from the Branch router and reload it. You will
then secure administrative access to the router and configure inter-VLAN routing among VLAN 1, 10, and
20. This way, you will enable connectivity among PC1, PC2, and management IP addresses on the
switches. You will implement inter-VLAN routing on the Branch router by establishing a trunk link
between the router and SW1 switch.
Activity Procedure

Task 3: Configure Internet Connectivity


In this task, you will configure the Branch router to provide Internet connectivity. This includes configuring
IP addresses on an interface and default route. You will also configure NAT with PAT to hide internal
addressing from the Internet. Finally, you will configure an ACL that will protect the router and LAN from
traffic on the Internet.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the Branch router.
Step 2
Configure an IP address on the Branch router on the interface connecting to the Internet
(GigabitEthernet0/1). Use 209.165.201.1/27 for the IP address. Enable the interface.
Step 3
Configure a default route on the Branch router that will point to the HQ router as the next hop.

L-190 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Step 4
Create a standard ACL that will permit users on VLAN 10 and 20. This ACL will be used to specify IP
addresses that are eligible for NAT. Use 1 for the access list identifer.
Step 5
Configure NAT with PAT on the Branch router for all LAN users. This includes users on VLAN 10 and 20.
Refer to the previously configured ACL. Use the IP address on the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface for the
translated IP address.
Step 6
Configure a named extended ACL on the Branch router that will deny all TCP and UDP traffic coming
from a source port greater than 1024. Permit all other IP traffic. Apply the ACL to the GigabitEthernet0/1
interface in the inbound direction.
Note

This ACL will effectively block all connection attempts from the Internet, while the returning traffic to the
LAN will be allowed. With a majority of well-known applications, you can expect that the source port of
traffic returning from a server will have a value that is lower than 1024. For example, returning traffic that
is coming from a Telnet server will have a source port with a value of 23. On the other hand, Telnet
traffic that originates from a host will have a source port greater than 1024.

Activity Verification
You have completed this task when you attain these results:
Step 1
Verify the status of the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface on the Branch router.
Branch# show interfaces GigabitEthernet0/1
GigabitEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up

You should see that the Telnet session from PC1 is seen as originating from the translated IP address. The
translated IP address is the IP address of the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface on the Branch router.
Step 5
Access PC2. Start PuTTY by double-clicking the PuTTY icon on the desktop. Establish a Telnet session to
the server at 172.16.1.100.

HQ#

Establishment of the Telnet session should be successful.

You should also see that the Telnet session from PC2 is seen as originating from the translated IP address.
The translated IP address is the IP address of the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface on the Branch router..
Step 7
Verify the translation table on the Branch router.
Branch# show ip nat translations

172.16.1.100:23

Outside global
172.16.1.100:23
172.16.1.100:23

You should see two PAT translations. One translation is for PC1 at 10.1.10.100, and the second is for PC2
at 10.1.10.100. Both IP addresses translated to the same global IP address but with different source ports.
Step 8
Return to the Telnet session on PC1. Try to establish a Telnet session from the HQ router to the Branch
router twice or three times.
HQ# telnet 209.165.201.1
Trying 209.165.201.1 ...
% Destination unreachable; gateway or host down
HQ# telnet 209.165.201.1

% Destination unreachable; gateway or host down
HQ# telnet 209.165.201.1
Trying 209.165.201.1 ...
% Destination unreachable; gateway or host down

You should not be successful because the ACL denies connections that are initiated from the Internet.

Step 9
Return to the Branch router console and verify the ACL hits.
Branch# show ip access-lists
Standard IP access list 1
10 permit 10.1.10.0, wildcard bits 0.0.0.255 (4 matches)
20 permit 10.1.20.0, wildcard bits 0.0.0.255 (1 match)
Extended IP access list OUTSIDE
10 deny tcp any gt 1024 any (3 matches)
20 deny udp any gt 1024 any
30 permit ip any any (122 matches)

You should see that the ACL denied three TCP packets coming from the TCP source port greater than 1024
to the Branch router.
Step 10
Close all Telnet sessions on PC1 and PC2.

Task 4: Configure WAN Connectivity and a


Dynamic Routing Protocol
In this task, you will configure the Branch router with WAN connectivity to the HQ router. This activity
includes removing the NAT configuration from the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface and changing the IP
address on the interface. You will also configure single-area OSPF on the Branch router in order to
exchange routing information with the HQ router. The HQ router has been preconfigured with OSPF.
However, you will have to change the IP addressing on the HQ router as well.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the Branch router.
Step 2
From the Branch router, use Telnet to connect to the HQ router.
Step 3
Change the IP address on the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface on the HQ router to 192.168.1.2 with network
mask 255.255.255.0. Be careful not to mistype the IP address.

L-196 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Note

Changing the IP address on the HQ router will terminate your Telnet session. If the session freezes,
press Ctrl-Shift-6, followed by X. This action will pause the Telnet session, and you will return to the
Branch router console. At the Branch router prompt, enter Disconnect to disconnect the frozen Telnet
session permanently.

Step 4
On the Branch router, remove the NAT configuration from the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface.
Step 5
Configure the IP address on the Branch router on the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface. Use 192.168.1.1/24 for
the IP address.
Step 6
Configure a loopback interface on the Branch router. Use 10 as the interface ID and 10.100.100.100/32 as
the IP address.
Why is it recommended to configure a loopback interface when enabling an OSPF routing protocol?
Step 7
Create the OSPF routing process on the Branch router. Use 1 as the OSPF process ID.
Step 8
Enable OSPF routing in Area 0 for the following networks:
192.168.1.0/24
10.1.1.0/24
10.1.10.0/24
10.1.20.0/24

Task 5: Configure IPv6 Connectivity in the LAN


In this task, you will enable IPV6 connectivity in the LAN. This activity includes enabling IPv6 on the
Branch router and setting IPv6 addresses on the LAN subinterfaces of the router. On the PCs with
Microsoft Windows 7, IPv6 is enabled by default. Therefore, the PCs will obtain IPv6 addresses
automatically by using stateless autoconfiguration.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:
Step 1
Access the Branch router.
Step 2
Enable IPv6 forwarding on the Branch router.

You should see that the PC is configured with one global IPv6 address, one temporary IPv6 address, the
link-local IPv6 address and the default gateway.
You will see a percent sign (%), followed by a number, at the end of the link-local IPv6 address and at the
end of the default gateway. The number following the percent sign identifies an interface on the PC, and it
is not part of the IPv6 address and should be ignored when determining the IPv6 address of the default
gateway.
Which router IPv6 address is configured as the default gateway on the PC?

Task 6: Configure the OSPFv3 Routing Protocol


In this task, you will enable the OSPFv3 routing protocol to route for IPv6 between the Branch and HQ
routers. The HQ router has been preconfigured.
Activity Procedure
Complete the following steps:

L-208 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Step 1
Access the Branch router.
Step 2
From the Branch router, use Telnet to connect to the HQ router at 192.168.1.2 using IPv4.
Step 3
Remove the existing IPv6 address from the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface on the HQ router. Set the IPv6
address on the interface to 2001:db8:c0a8:100::2/64. Include the interface into the OSPFv3 routing protocol
with Process ID 1 and Area 0. Exit the Telnet session.
Step 4
On the Branch router, configure the GigabitEthernet0/1 interface with 2001:db8:c0a8:100::1/64 IPv6
address.
Step 5
From the Branch router, ping the HQ router at 2001:db8:c0a8:100::2 to verify IPv6 connectivity between
the routers.
Branch# ping 2001:db8:c0a8:100::2
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 2001:DB8:C0A8:100::2, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 52/54/56 ms

The ping should be successful.


Step 6
From the Branch router, use Telnet to connect to the HQ router at 2001:db8:c0a8:100::2.
Branch# telnet 2001:db8:c0a8:100::2
Trying 2001:DB8:C0A8:100::2 ... Open

You should see that the OSPFv3 process is configured and that Loopback0 and GigabitEthernet0/1 are
enabled for OSPFv3.
Step 8
Close the Telnet session.
Step 9
Create an OSPFv3 process on the Branch router. Use 1 as the Process ID.
Branch(config)# ipv6 router ospf 1

L-210 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Step 10
Enable the following interfaces for OSPFv3 in Area 0:
GigabitEthernet0/1
GigabitEthernet0/0.1
GigabitEthernet0/0.10
GigabitEthernet0/0.20
Branch(config)# interface GigabitEthernet0/1
Branch(config-if)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 0
Branch(config-if)#
Branch(config)# interface GigabitEthernet0/0.1
Branch(config-subif)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 0
Branch(config-if)#
Branch(config-subif)# interface GigabitEthernet0/0.10
Branch(config-subif)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 0
Branch(config-if)#
Branch(config-subif)# interface GigabitEthernet0/0.20
Branch(config-subif)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 0

You should see that OSPFv3 adjacency went up immediately after you enabled OSPFv3 on the
GigabitEthernet0/1 interface:
*Dec 7 13:59:21.815: %OSPFv3-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 0.0.0.1 on
GigabitEthernet0/1 from LOADING to FULL, Loading Done

Activity Verification

Lab 1-1: Performing Switch Startup and Initial
Configuration
Task 1: Perform a Reload and Verify that the Switch Is
Unconfigured
Step 2
Since the erase startup-config command is a privileged-level command, entering it in user EXEC mode
will have no effect on the system. You were informed that the command is invalid.
Switch>erase startup-config
^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

Step 3
When you have a right arrow (>) symbol after the device hostname, you are in user EXEC mode. When you
issued the enable command, you moved into privileged EXEC mode, which is indicated by the pound sign
(#) after the hostname. Enter privileged EXEC mode by typing enable in user EXEC mode.
Switch>enable
Switch#

Step 4
When you enter the erase startup-config command within privileged EXEC mode, it is accepted and you
are prompted to press Enter to confirm this action.

Task 4: Improve the Usability of the CLI


Step 1
You can enter the show terminal command and then investigate the output to determine the current history
size. Alternatively, you can use the pipe (|) along with the include command and the keyword history size
to print out just the line with the information.
SW1>show terminal | include history size
History is enabled, history size is 20.

Step 2
Enter global configuration mode.
SW1#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.

End with CNTL/Z.

Enter line console 0 configuration mode.


SW1(config)#line console 0

L-222 Interconnecting Cisco Networking Devices, Part 1

Change the history size to 100.


SW1(config-line)#history size 100

Issue the exit command twice to get back to privileged EXEC mode.
SW1(config-line)#exit
SW1(config)#exit

Verify that the history size is changed.


SW1#show terminal | i history size
History is enabled, history size is 100.

Step 3
You must be in global configuration mode before issuing the no ip domain lookup command.
SW1>enable
SW1#configure terminal
SW1(config)#no ip domain-lookup

Step 4
Issue the exec-timeout 60 command to set the console timeout expiration timer to one hour.
SW1(config-line)#exec-timeout 60

Verify that idle exec timeout is set to one hour. Use the verification command directly from console
configuration mode.

Lab 1-2: Troubleshooting Switch Media Issues


Task 2: Troubleshoot Connectivity Between Computer PC1
and Switch SW1
Step 1
When you issue a ping from SW1 to PC1, your success rate is 0 percent, so there is no Layer 3 connectivity
between the two devices.
SW1>ping 10.1.1.100
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.1.1.100, timeout is 2 seconds:
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)

Step 2
The output of the show interfaces FastEthernet0/1 command tells you that the interface toward PC1 is
administratively down, which means that the interface was disabled by the administrator.
SW1>enable
SW1#show interfaces FastEthernet0/1
FastEthernet0/1 is administratively down, line protocol is down (disabled)
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 001e.147c.bd01 (bia 001e.147c.bd01)
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbit/sec, DLY 1000 usec,
reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set
Keepalive set (10 sec)
Auto-duplex, Auto-speed, media type is 10/100BaseTX

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Step 3
Enter global configuration mode.
SW1#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.

End with CTRL-Z.

Enter interface configuration mode for FastEthernet 0/1 and enable the interface with the no shutdown
command.
SW1(config)#interface FastEthernet 0/1
SW1(config-if)#no shutdown

Finally, verify Layer 3 connectivity between PC1 and SW1 by issuing a ping command. It should be
successful.
SW1#ping 10.1.1.100
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 10.1.1.100, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/5/9 ms

Step 4
It is important to save the configuration of SW1 because the no shutdown command would disappear if the
switch is restarted. John would again be cut off from the network.
SW1#copy running-config startup-config

Task 3: Troubleshoot Connectivity Between Switch SW1 and


the Branch Router
Step 1
Because you have console logging enabled (which you can verify with the show logging command), the
switch is reporting. This message tells you that the interfaces of SW1 and Branch have different duplex
settings. It looks like the Branch router FastEthernet0/0 interface is configured for full duplex, while
interface FastEthernet0/13 on the switch is not configured for full duplex.
Aug 21 14:39:52.112: %CDP-4-DUPLEX_MISMATCH: duplex mismatch discovered on
FastEthernet0/13 (not full duplex), with Branch FastEthernet0/0 (full duplex).

Use the show interfaces FastEthernet Fa0/13 command to identify the duplex setting on the interface.

2013 Cisco Systems, Inc.

Lab Guide

L-225

SW1#show interfaces FastEthernet 0/13


FastEthernet 0/13 is up, line protocol is up (connected)
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 001e.147c.bd0d (bia 001e.147c.bd0d)
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit/sec, DLY 100 usec,

Half-duplex, 100Mb/s, media type is 10/100BaseTX
input flow-control is off, output flow-control is unsupported
< output omitted >

You can also use the show ip interface brief command to verify status of all interfaces. It shows that
interface FastEthernet 0/13 is in an up/up state. This status means that even though the duplex settings are
mismatched on the link, it is still functional. The drawback is that the connection is not efficient. With halfduplex operation, data cannot be sent and received at the same time.

Branch(config-if)#ip address dhcp

Step 3
Enter the following commands on the Branch router:
Branch(config-if)#exit
Branch(config)#exit
Branch#copy running-config startup-config

Step 5
The default route was set by the Branch router automatically. The Branch router received knowledge of the
default gateway from the DHCP server and it set the static route next-hop IP address to the IP address of the
default gateway.
Step 12
The solution that could be implemented on the Branch router to provide connectivity between PC1 and the
server is NAT. With NAT, the source IP address in a packet would be translated into the outside IP address
of the Branch router. The HQ router would then know how to send a returning packet back to the Branch
router, because the routers are directly connected. The destination IP address in the packet would be then
translated back to the IP address of PC1 and sent to PC1.

Branch(config)# interface Loopback10
Branch(config-if)# ip address 10.100.100.100 255.255.255.255

Each router running OSPF requires a router ID. The router ID will be the highest IP address of the router on
a loopback interface, if configured, or the highest IP address on an interface, if a loopback interface is not
configured. Because loopback is a stable interface and cannot go down, it is recommended to configure the
loopback interface for the OSPF router ID.
