Objectives
Part 1: Document the Current Network
Configurations
Part 2: Configure, Deploy, and Test
the New Multilayer Switch
Scenario
The Network Administrator is replacing
the current router and switch with a new Layer 3 switch. As the Network Technician,
it is your job to configure the switch and place it into service. You will be
working after hours to minimize disruption to the business.
Note:
This activity begins with a score of 8/100, because
the device connections for the PCs are scored. You will delete and restore
these connections in Part 2. The scoring is there to verify that you correctly
restored the connections.
Part 1: Document the Current Network Configurations
Note:
Normally a production router would have many more
configurations than just interface IP addressing. However, to expedite this
activity, only interface IP addressing is configured on R1.
a.
Click R1 and then the CLI tab.
b.
Use the available commands to
gather interface addressing information.
c.
Document the information in the
Addressing Table.
Part 2: Configure, Deploy, and Test the New Multilayer Switch
Step 1:
Configure MLSw1 to use the
addressing scheme from R1.
a.
Click MLSw1 and then the CLI
tab.
b.
Enter interface configuration
mode for GigabitEthernet 0/1.
c.
Change the port to routing mode
by entering the no switchport command.
d.
Configure the IP address to be
the same as the address for R1
GigabitEthernet 0/1 and activate the port.
e.
Enter interface configuration
mode for interface VLAN1.
f.
Configure the IP address to be
the same as the address for R1
GigabitEthernet 0/0 and activate the port.
g.
Save the configuration.
Step 2:
Deploy the new multilayer
switch and verify that connectivity is restored.
Note:
The following steps would normally be done after
hours or when traffic on the production network is at its lowest volume. To
minimize downtime, the new equipment should be fully configured and ready to
deploy.
a.
Click an empty area of the
screen to unselect all devices.
b.
Use the Delete tool to remove all the connections, or simply delete R1, S1, and S2.
c.
Select the appropriate cables
to complete the following:
-
Connect MLSw1 GigabitEthernet 0/1 to the Edge GigabitEthernet 0/0.
-
Connect the PCs to Fast
Ethernet ports on MLSw1.
d.
Verify the PCs can all ping Edge at 192.168.0.1.
Note: Wait until orange link lights turn green.
