Activity 2 GLORIOSO

The document summarizes an activity using Cisco Packet Tracer, a network simulation software. The objectives are to install Packet Tracer and understand its functions. The procedures demonstrate adding hosts, hubs, switches and connecting the devices. Screenshots show the topology constructed in Packet Tracer. The conclusion is that the goals of installing and understanding Packet Tracer were accomplished and its capabilities can now be used to design, simulate and troubleshoot networks.

I. INTRODUCTION

A cross-platform visual simulation tool from Cisco Systems, Packet Tracer lets users simulate and
design network topologies for contemporary computer networks. Users are able to replicate how Cisco
switches and routers are configured by using a simulated CLI. Users of Packet Tracer can add and remove
virtual network devices as needed using the program's drag-and-drop user interface. The software is
intended mainly as a teaching aid for Cisco Networking Academy students to help them understand the
foundational concepts of CCNA. The tool was originally available for free download and educational
usage by students enrolled in CCNA Academy programs.

II. OBJECTIVE

 Installing and understand Packet Tracer

III. APPARATUS

 Packet Tracer

IV. PROCEDURE

1. Install the Packet tracer.


2. Start the Packet Tracer.
3. Selecting devices and connections.

Single click on each group of devices and connections to display the various choices.

4. Adding Hosts
a. Single Click on the End Devices

b. Single click on the Generic host


c. Move the cursor into topology area. You will notice it turns into a plus “+” sign. Single click
in the topology area and it copies the device.

d. Add two more hosts.


5. Connecting the Hosts to Hubs and Switches
a. Adding a Hub: Select a hub, by clicking once on Hubs and once on a Generic hub.
b. Adding a Switch: Select a switch, by clicking once on switch and once on a Generic hub.
c. Connect the Host to the Hub and Switch using a Straight-through-cable
V. DOCUMENTATION

VI. ANALYSIS/OBSERVATION

First, I examine the various software connection types and how to use the hub, switches, and other
devices. Following analysis, we connected the hub to the switch by utilizing the Copper Straight Through,
and then we connected the switch to the end devices. For the hubs, I utilized the PC as the end device.
Figure 1 illustrates the interconnecting process. When we click on the software's physical component,
Figure 2 is displayed. The primary server was then moved to the bottom left of the office, and moved the
end devices to their designated rooms. Next, simulating the possibility of a connection from the server.

VII. CONCLUSION

To sum it up, the primary goals of our project were installed and a thorough understanding of the
Cisco Packet Tracer software was accomplished. We made sure that our devices worked properly during
the installation procedure. We were have introduce ourselves in the software "Packet Tracer" capabilities
and functions as we explored it. Our knowledege in the program enables us to utilize its features beyond
just installing it. With this improved comprehension, we can effectively design, simulate, and
troubleshoot network topologies. Figures 1 and 2 demonstrate the interrelated parts and the software's
physical representation, visually recording our path from installation to real-world use.
