    Lab Tasks
    Lab Task 1:
    1.1 Network Configuration
    Step 1. Connect to the Internet.
    Step 2. Gather TCP/IP configuration information.
    Step 3. Record the following TCP/IP information for this computer.
    a. IPv4 address: 10.5.8.45
    b. Subnet mask: 255.255.255.192
    c. Default gateway: 10.5.8.1

    Step 4. Compare this computer’s TCP/IP configuration to that of


    others on the LAN. If this computer is on a LAN, compare the
    information of several machines (Hosts).
    a. Are there any similarities? Only subnet and gateway is same & IP is not same.
    b. What is similar about the IP addresses? Only last 2 digits are different from
    other’s IP.
    c. What is similar about the default gateway? Whole address is same.
    d. Record a couple of the IP addresses (of your nearby hosts)
    1. 10.5.8.25
    2. 10.5.8.47
    3. 10.5.8.20

    Step 5. Check additional TCP/IP configuration information.


    c. In the LAN, compare your result with a few nearby computers.
    What similarities do you see in the physical (MAC) address?
    Last digits of MAC addresses are not same.
    d. Write down the computer’s host name: CL4-L3-PC31
    e. Write down the host names of a couple of other computer:
    a. CL4-L3-PC30
    b. CL4-L3-PC33
    c. CL4-L3-PC29
    d. CL4-L3-PC28

    1.2 Using PING, TRACERT , PATHPING from a


    Workstation (Attach Every command Screen Shot)
    Step 2. Open the Command prompt. Ping the IP address of another
    computer.
    a. In the window, type ping, a space, and the IP address of a computer
    recorded above.
    b. Ask the IP address of the nearby computers and ping. Note the result.
    (Screen Shot)

    c. Ping the IP address of Default gateway and DNS servers. Was the result
    successful? (Screen Shot)
    No result is not successful.
    d. Ping the computer’s loopback IP address. Type the following command:
    (Screen Shot)

    e. Was the ping successful for d.


    Yes, the ping was successful.
    f. Ping the hostname of the computer that you recorded in previous task.
    (Screen Shot)

    g. Ping the Microsoft website(www.microsoft.com) and record result. (Screen


    Shot)
    Step 3. Trace the route to the NUTECH university website (Screen
    Shot):

    Step 4. Close the window. Also see “pathping ip or host” command.


    Which only shows path from source to destination. (Screen Shot)
    Lab Task 02
    Explore and run 10 cmd networking related commands. (Screen
    Shot).
    Netstat: This command displays active TCP/IP network connections, ports on which the
    computer is listening, Ethernet statistics, the IP routing table, and protocol statistics1.

    Nslookup: This command is used to query DNS to obtain domain name or IP address
    mapping, or other DNS records1.
    Arp: This command displays and modifies entries in the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
    cache, which contains one or more tables used to store IP addresses and their resolved Ethernet
    or Token Ring physical addresses1.

    Route: This command is used to view and modify the IP routing table1.
    Netsh: This is a command-line scripting utility that allows you to, either locally or remotely,
    display or modify the network configuration of a computer that is currently running1.

    Getmac: This command returns the media access control (MAC) address and list of network
    protocols associated with each address for all network cards in each computer1.

    Nbtstat: This command is used to troubleshoot NetBIOS name resolution problems1.

    Telnet: This command is used to communicate with remote hosts using the Telnet protocol1.

    Hostname: This command displays the host name of the current device1.
    Netsh wlan show profiles: Displays a list of wireless network profiles stored on the
    computer.

    Lab Task 03
    Create your cisco id (https://id.cisco.com/signin/register) (Screen
    Shot)
    Lab Task 04
    Study of following Network Devices in Detail
    1. Repeater: A repeater is a network device that operates at the physical layer.
    Its job is to regenerate the signal over the same network before the signal
    becomes too weak or corrupted, thus extending the length to which the signal
    can be transmitted over the same network.

    2. Hub: A hub is essentially a multi-port repeater. It connects multiple wires


    coming from different branches. Hubs cannot filter data, so data packets are
    sent to all connected devices. They do not have the intelligence to find out the
    best path for data packets which leads to inefficiencies and wastage.

    3. Switch: A switch is a network device that connects devices within a network


    and forwards data packets to and from those devices. Unlike a router, a switch
    only sends data to the single device it is intended for.

    4. Bridge: A bridge is a network device that connects multiple LANs together


    with a larger Local Area Network (LAN). The mechanism of network
    aggregation is known as bridging. The bridge operates at the OSI model’s data
    link layer and is also known as a layer of two switches.

    5. Router: A router is a device that connects two or more packet-switched


    networks or subnetworks. It serves two primary functions: managing traffic
    between these networks by forwarding data packets to their intended IP
    addresses, and allowing multiple devices to use the same Internet connection.

    6. Gateway: A gateway is a network device that connects two networks using


    different protocols together. It also acts as a “gate” between two networks. It
    may be a router, firewall, server, or other devices that enable traffic to flow in
    and out of the network.
