CMP4269 Network Fundamentals
Task 2 Assessment Brief Build and Configure Small Network Topology
Assessment Objectives Part 1: Develop an IP Addressing Scheme (30 marks) Part 2: Configure Device IP address and Security Settings (45 marks) Part 3: Test and Verify IPv4 and IPv6 End-to-End Connectivity (25 marks)
Scenario You are required to build and configure the devices in a small network as shown in the above topology. You must configure a router, switch and PCs to support both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity. You will configure security, including SSH, on the router. In addition, you will test and document the network using common CLI commands.
Requirements Part 1: Develop an IP Addressing Scheme a. Please refer to Moodle for your allocated IPv4 address and host requirements for subnet A and subnet B. You will subnet it to provide IP addresses to the two subnets that will support the required number of hosts. No subnet calculators may be used. All workout must be shown (without in-depth discussion on the subnetting method, there will be no mark awarded to this task). Results should be recorded in the IP Addressing table below (20 marks) IP Addressing table Specification Subnet A Subnet B Required Number of users Subnet IP address blank blank Subnet mask (slash notation) blank blank
Specification Subnet A Subnet B Subnet mask (dotted decimal) blank blank 1st Host IP address blank blank Last Host IP address blank blank Number of usable hosts per subnet blank blank Broadcast address blank blank b. Record your subnet assignment in the table below 1) Assign the first IPv4 address of the relevant subnet to each router interface 2) Assign the last IPv4 address of the relevant subnet to each PC NIC 3) Assign the second IPv4 address of the relevant subnet to S1 Device IP address Subnet Mask Gateway PC-A blank blank blank R1-G0/0/0 blank blank N/A R1-G0/0/1 blank blank N/A S1 blank blank blank PC-B blank blank blank c. Please refer to Moodle for your allocated IPv6 address. Use the allocated address to create two subnets for use in this network. Record the IPv6 addresses in the table (10 marks) Assigned to Interface IPv6 Subnet Address Prefix Length blank blank blank blank blank blank d. Record the IPv6 address information for each device Note: Use FE80::1 as the link-local address on both router interfaces. Device IPv6 address Prefix Length Gateway R1-G0/0/0 blank blank N/A R1-G0/0/1 blank blank N/A S1 blank blank blank
Part 2: Configure Device IP Address and Security Settings Note: Marks will only be awarded if a screenshot evidence of the configuration is provided Step 1: Configure intermediary devices (35 marks) • Set the router hostname as R1 (1 mark) • Set switch hostname as S1 (1 mark) • Set an encrypted privileges EXEC password for all intermediary devices: ccnaenpass (2 marks) • Secure the console access to all intermediary devices with the password: ccnaconpass (2 marks) • Set the minimum length for passwords to be 10 characters (4 marks) • Create an administrative user in the local database and set the username and password as: (4 marks) Username: admin Password: admin1pass • Configure an MOTD banner for all intermediary devices with the message: No Unauthorised Access! (1 mark) • Encrypt all the used passwords on all intermediary devices. (2 marks) • Disable IP domain lookup on all intermediary devices. (2 marks) • Enable synchronous logging on all intermediary devices to avoid interruptions during configuration tasks. (4 marks) • Configure router’s interfaces (6 marks) o Set description for the interface o Assign IPv4 and IPv6 unicast and link-local addresses • Configure switch’s management (SVI) interface (6 marks) o Set description for the interface o Assign IPv4 and IPv6 unicast and link-local addresses Step 2: Verify intermediary devices configuration. Use the appropriate commands on the intermediary devices to provide evidence for your configuration. Screen shots should be clearly labelled showing the relevant configuration. Step 3: Configure host computers. (10 marks) Configure host computers with IPv4 and IPv6 addresses from their relevant subnets. Step 4: Verify host computers configuration Use the appropriate commands on the host computers to provide evidence for your configuration. Screen shots should be clearly labelled showing the relevant configuration.
Part 3: Test and Verify End-to-End Connectivity Step 1: Use the ping command to test IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity between all network devices. A clearly labelled screen shot with the result of the ping command should also be provided. (10 marks) Use the following table to methodically verify connectivity with each network device. Take corrective action to establish connectivity if a test fails: From To Protocol IP Address Ping Results Screenshot PC-A R1 G0/0/0 IPv4 blank blank PC-A R1 G0/0/0 IPv6 blank blank PC-A R1 G0/0/1 IPv4 blank blank PC-A R1 G0/0/1 IPv6 blank blank PC-A S1 VLAN1 IPv4 blank blank PC-A S1 VLAN 1 IPv6 blank blank PC-A PC-B IPv4 blank blank PC-A PC-B IPv6 blank blank PC-B R1 G0/0/0 IPv4 blank blank PC-B R1 G0/0/0 IPv6 blank blank PC-B R1 G0/0/1 IPv4 blank blank PC-B R1 G0/0/1 IPv6 blank blank PC-B S1 VLAN1 IPv4 blank blank PC-B S1 VLAN1 IPv6 blank blank Question: Step 2: Enter the appropriate CLI command needed to display the following on R1. A copy of the output of the command on R1 should also be included (15 marks) Command Description Command Display a summary of important information about the IPv4 interfaces on R1. blank Display the IPv4 routing table. blank Display the Layer 2 to Layer 3 mapping of addresses on R1. blank Display detailed IPv4 information about interface G0/0/0 on R1. blank Display the IPv6 routing table. blank
Command Description Command Display a summary of IPv6 interface addresses and status. blank Save the current configuration so it will be used the next time the router is started. blank
