1. Download the Cisco Packet Tracer version 8.0 software.
You can download as follows:
Sign in to the Cisco Networking Academy (www.netacad.com). For your account
details: see Leho announcement and the email you received some days ago from
noreply@netacad.com.
In the homepage, click on the Resources menu and choose Download Packet Tracer.
Press the ”64 Bit Download“ link under the desired OS.
2. Install Cisco Packet Tracer (from now on referred to as ‘PT’).
3. Start PT.
4. You may get a question for ‘multi-user’ to which you can say ‘yes’. Next, you may get
the following security notification. In this window, check both boxes and click on the
“Allow Access” button.
,5. Sign in with your Cisco account.
6. Then close PT.
7. Read the “How to access Cisco Networking Academy.pdf” on Leho, in order to know
how to access the online course.
Part II: Exploring Packet Tracer
8. Download the “Lab 01 - Exploring Packet Tracer” PKA file from Leho. Open the
downloaded PKA file by double-clicking on it.
9. Close the User profile window and PT Activity window.
10. You now see a network consisting of a number of “devices” that are connected to
each other by means of “connections”. At the ends of the connections you see a green
triangle and/or orange ball representing the interfaces of the devices.The green
triangles indicate that the interface is active, while the orange spheres indicate
interfaces that are enabled but are not yet active. Normally, after some time, these
orange spheres will turn into green triangles.
Hint: If you prefer to see all the interfaces accelerated, press the “Fast forward time”
button at the bottom left in PT.
,11. Write down how many intermediary devices are in the different networks.
a. Home Office network:
• 1 wireless router
• 1 modem
b. Central Office:
• 3 LAN switches
• 2 multilayer switches
• 1 router
c. Branch Office:
• 1 router
• 1 wireless AP
• 1 LAN switch
12. In the toolbar under the menu bar, press the “Show Workspace List” button to retrieve
the names and models of the devices in the network.
What model is the wireless router in the Home Office network?
Linksys-WRT300N
13. How is the laptop in the Home Office network connected to the router: wired or
wireless? How do you know this?
Wireless because you see a line between both devices
Note that the desktop is wired to the router (proposed by a full connection line)
14. What is the network name (technical term = SSID) of the Home Office network?
Hint: this is a setting on the wireless router
WRS > GUI > Wireless → SSID = home office
, Or via the Config tab of WRS (but not realistic in the real world):
15. In order for a computer to communicate with another computer, it must have a network
card (also referred to as NIC = Network Interface Card) to which an IP address was
assigned.This address is usually listed as X.Y.Z.U (dotted decimal notation) with X,
Y, Z and U decimal numbers between 0 and 255. In reality, an IP address is a binary
number, consisting of 4x8=32 bits. You’ll learn more about this in another lecture.
Write down the IP address of the desktop in the Home Office network below:
IP address in dotted decimal notation =
IP address in dotted decimal notation = 192.168.0.101
Also write down the IP address in binary notation below by converting each decimal
number to a 8-bit notation.
IP address in binary notation =
