Lab ID: 9.9K713A012.SCI1.

Scenario Lab: IP Addressing on Catalyst 2950

Switches
Objective
Build a lab network that will enable you to learn the basic commands needed to congure a switch.

Lab Topology
The Topology diagram below represents the NetMap in the Simulator.

Fa0/1 Fa0/11 Fa0/11 Fa0/1

Switch1 Switch2
HostA Fa0/12 Fa0/12 HostB

Command Summary
Command Description
congure terminal enters global conguration mode from privileged EXEC mode
enable enters privileged EXEC mode
end ends and exits conguration mode
hostname host-name sets the device name
interface type number changes from global conguration mode to interface
conguration mode
ip address ip-address subnet-mask assigns an IP address to an interface
ipcong /ip ip-address subnet-mask used in NetSim to assign an IP address and subnet mask to a
workstation interface
no shutdown enables an interface
ping ip-address sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo
request to the specied address

 The IP addresses and subnet masks used in this lab are shown in the table below:

IP Addresses
Device Interface IP Address Subnet Mask
Switch1 VLAN1 192.168.100.101 255.255.255.0
Switch2 VLAN1 192.168.100.102 255.255.255.0
HostA - 192.168.100.1 255.255.255.0
HostB - 192.168.100.2 255.255.255.0

Lab Tasks
1. Congure Switch1 with a host name of Switch1. Use the default virtual LAN (VLAN) for
management, and congure the appropriate IP address and subnet mask; refer to the IP Addresses
table.

2. Congure Switch2 with a host name of Switch2. Use the default VLAN for management, and
congure the appropriate IP address and subnet mask; refer to the IP Addresses table.

3. On HostA, congure the appropriate IP address and subnet mask; refer to the IP Addresses table.

4. On HostB, congure the appropriate IP address and subnet mask; refer to the IP Addresses table.

5. Verify the connectivity between HostA and HostB by pinging from HostA to HostB (192.168.100.2).
The ping should be successful.

 Lab Solutions
1. On Switch1, issue the following commands to congure a host name, the default VLAN, and the
appropriate IP address and subnet mask:

Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#hostname Switch1
Switch1(config)#interface vlan 1
Switch1(config-if)#ip address 192.168.100.101 255.255.255.0
Switch1(config-if)#no shutdown
Switch1(config-if)#end

2. On Switch2, issue the following commands to congure a host name, the default VLAN, and the
appropriate IP address and subnet mask:

Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#hostname Switch2
Switch2(config)#interface vlan 1
Switch2(config-if)#ip address 192.168.100.102 255.255.255.0
Switch2(config-if)#no shutdown
Switch2(config-if)#end

3. On HostA, issue the following command to congure the appropriate IP address and subnet mask:

C:>ipconfig /ip 192.168.100.1 255.255.255.0

4. On HostB, issue the following command to congure the appropriate IP address and subnet mask:

C:>ipconfig /ip 192.168.100.2 255.255.255.0

5. Verify the connectivity between HostA and HostB by pinging from HostA to HostB (192.168.100.2).
The ping should be successful.
