Connecting Computers to a switch in the packet tracer is the basic lab. Normally this type of lab is considered in a Lan environment, where computers are connected to each other via a switch. Here in this lab, I will use four computers with one Cisco 2950 switch model. We will connect each PC to…
Connecting a PC to a router is an important Lab in Packet Tracer. It is a basic lab in Packet Tracer. To connect the PC to a router, 1st click on the network devices, then click on the router. Click on your desired router. In my case, I am selecting the 2811 router by dragging…
A password is a primary protection mechanism to secure a device. Cisco uses different types of passwords to restrict access to its devices, such as routers, switches, firewalls, etc. We have explained configuring different Cisco router passwords to restrict a user from accessing the router privilege exec mode. In the router privilege exec mode, a…
Packet tracer is a network simulator software. Network professionals and students use it to design and learn networks. Cisco Systems Incorporated developed it. Here, In this paragraph, we will explore the basics of it. It is easy to download, install, and manage. As compared to other network-simulating software, it requires fewer resources, such as RAM,…
Cisco IOS Cisco iOS is an essential part of computer networking devices. The Cisco routers, switches, and ASA Firewalls use IOS as an operating system installed in it. IOS is the core software of all Cisco devices. We must be familiar with the Cisco router and switch configuration commands, which are managed by IOS. We…
We use a console cable for the configuration of a Cisco router or switch. It is a copper rollover cable that connects the PC directly to the router or switches for configuration purposes. Normally the length of a console cable is 1 to 2 meters. We connect it to the PC through the COM1 or…
In this article, I will teach you how to connect two computers to a Cisco packet tracer. For this reason, first, take two PCs from [end devices], then connect them by crossover cable from [connection] in the Packet Tracer. It is the basic starter lab for a student entering into computer networking fields. A student…
Packet Tracer A packet tracer is easy to install and easy to make a computer network by dragging and dropping network devices and end devices. I am going to start with a very basic lab in packet tracer. The first lab starts with how to connect two PCs in a packet tracer. For this reason,…
Just like Pick a Dresser, GNS3 is another simulation software that is free and open source software licensed by GNS GPL Version-3. IT stands for graphical network simulator. it is also an emulation software.GNS3 is a popular network emulation software, which people use it for designing, testing, and simulating complex network topologies. They released it…
Packet Tracer Packet Tracer is a special computer program. People like students and engineers use it. They use it to make computer networks design on the computer. Through it, we can simulate network devices like routers, switches, and computers on the screen and make a picture of how the network works. Cisco Systems developed it…
