LABORATORY EXERCISE Page 1 of 5

In this activity, you will create a network that is similar to the topology
diagram shown below. This activity is a point score per number, you
should answer the question/s in each step (Filename:
LastnameFNameLabExer4.doc). Save the configuration done in packet tracer (Filename:
LastnameFNameLabExer4.pkt). Compress these files in one folder and name it LastnameFNameLabExer4.rar
or LastnameFNameLabExer4.zip.

Take Note: In order to create serial connections for AMA 1 and AMA2, you need to do the following:

1. Double click your AMA1 then click the physical tab and choose WIC-2T.

2. Turn off your AMA1.

 3. Then drag the 1 WIT-2T below in the slot available for your router AMA1.

4. Then choose serial connection in the cable connection selections. Do it also in

the AMA2 the same process done in AMA 1 in putting serial connection. Make
sure that AMA1 should be assigned to have clockrate.

Use the following given IP addresses that are needed to put in the addressing table.
 a.) AMA 1 to AMA 2 – 187.10.0.0/23
For AMA1 use the first usable host address.
For AMA2 use the second usable host address.
b.) AMA1 to stud1 and stud 2 – 200.11.1.0/ 27
For AMA1 use the first usable host address.
For stud1 use the second usable host address.
For stud2 use the third usable host address.
For the default gateway for stud1 and stud2 assign the first usable host
address.
c.) AMA2 to stud3 – 202.90.2.0/29
For AMA2 use the first usable host address.
For stud2 use the second usable host address.
For the default gateway for stud3 assign the first usable host address.

Task 1: Cable the Network.
Cable a network that is similar to the one in the Topology Diagram.
Answer the following questions:
What type of cable is used to connect the Ethernet interface on a host PC to the Ethernet interface on a
switch? _Straight Through Cable_
What type of cable is used to connect the Ethernet interface on a switch to the Ethernet interface on a
router? Straight Through Cable_
What type of cable is used to connect the Ethernet interface on a router to the Ethernet interface on a
host PC? _Cross Over Cable___

Task 2: Erase and Reload the Routers.

Step 1: Establish a terminal session to router AMA1.
Start your configuration to AMA1
Step 2: Enter privileged EXEC mode.
Router>enable
Router#
Step 3: Clear the configuration.
To clear the configuration, issue the erase startup-config command. Press Enter when prompted to
[confirm] that you really do want to erase the configuration currently stored in NVRAM.

Router#erase startup-config
SAMPLE OUTPUT Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm]
[OK]
Erase of nvram: complete
Router#
Repeat Step 1 through 4 from Task 2 on router AMA2 to remove any startup configuration file
that may be present.

Task 3: Perform Basic Configuration of AMA1.

Step 1: Go to CLI tab for AMA1
Step 2: Enter privileged EXEC mode.
What is the command? Router>enable
Step 3: Enter global configuration mode.
What is the command? Router#Enable
Step 4: Configure the router name as AMA1.
What is the command? Router(config)#hostname AMA1
Step 4: Configure the EXEC mode password.

Configure the EXEC mode password using the enable secret password command. Use class for
the password.
