Introduction

Types of Labs CCNA Labs and Supporting Material ICND1 and ICND2 Labs The presentation of CCNA™ labs has been reorganized into two different areas. Individuals preparing for the Cisco® ICND (640-822) exam can easily bring up documentation and networks for the 75 labs that help prepare them. Those preparing for the Cisco® ICND 2 (640-816) exam can now find these 78 labs and networks organized in the same section. Practice Scenarios Studying for the Cisco® CCNA™ exam is challenging. Trying to figure out which exam topics to study for is difficult. This program assists you by providing Practice Scenarios. We have designed our practice scenarios based on CCNA™ exam topics. Testing yourself with our practice scenarios will give you the confidence needed in preparing for the Cisco® CCNA™ exam. After you go through accumulative and/or Individual labs you can test your problem-solving and troubleshooting skills. In the lab documentation we present Practice Scenarios which are interspersed in the lab documentation. With these scenarios you are presented with partially or incorrectly configured networks and your task is to read the instructions and correct the situation. These are gradable labs. They can be found in two places on our menu tree. They are interspersed among the accumulative labs. After you read about a concept and go through hands-on lab(s), you are then presented with a practice scenario that tests your problem-solving and troubleshooting skills. They can also be found in their own section so that you can quickly choose any of the labs, instead of hunting for them in the accumulative labs. Individual Labs We also offer CCNA™ labs that stand on their own, are comprehensive and self-contained, and do not require configurations from prior labs. These labs are typically longer than the accumulative labs because you are starting with a non-configured network each time you bring up an Individual lab. You are totally configuring the network for each lab, from beginning to finish. We provide step-by-step instructions for these labs. These are gradable labs. Net Assessment This feature allows you to test and evaluate your CCNA™ problem-solving and trouble shooting network skills. This is a powerful and flexible tool for all to use, including teachers, students, individuals, etc. You can grade yourself or if you are an instructor, you can grade your students. There are eight labs that walk you through an example in utilizing Net Assessment. Net Assessment also provides you with more sophisticated and powerful methods in altering values. That is covered in seven additional labs. Accumulative Labs We provide step-by-step labs that, for the most part, build on each other. Fourteen different network layouts are presented within these labs. When you start working with a new section and encounter a new network layout, you are asked to save your work. It is suggested that you save your network layout with another name so that you always have a non-configured network to fall back on. An example would be saving the original network layout, Standard Layout, as My Standard Layout.

Introduction

Network Layouts Loading a Network Layout 1.

On the Network Visualizer screen, click on the File menu and then click Open.

2.

When the dialog box appears, make sure you are in the Networks folder.

3.

Find and click on the file name and then click OK.

Custom Labs With CCNA Virtual Lab, Titanium Edition 3.0, you can create your own labs. You can then make your labs available for others to use. They will appear off the main menu of the Network Visualizer screen. You can also imbed instructions into your labs/network. Use a third-party program to create instructions. This can be a text editor, word processor, HTML editor, spreadsheet program, etc.

Lab 1.1: Loading a Network Layout There are three types of network layouts that you can load with this program. Accumulative Labs In our lab documentation we provide step-by-step labs that, for the most part, build on each other. Within the accumulative labs there are a handful of different network layouts that you will load. The network layouts are specific to the tasks you will encounter in the labs. 1.

Find and click on the file name and then click Open.

Individual Labs We also offer labs that stand on their own, are self-contained, and do not require configurations from prior labs. These labs are typically larger than the accumulative labs because you are starting with a non-configured network each time you bring up an Individual lab. You are totally configuring the network for each lab, from beginning to finish. We provide step-by-step instructions for these labs. Some labs require extensive configurations, Instead of manually entering the configurations, you have the ability to copy

Custom Networks With this program, you can create your own labs. You can then make your labs available for others to use. You can distribute your custom labs to others so that they show up on their menus. They can be loaded from the Network Visualizer menu.

Lab 1.2: Adding a Device to the Network Visualizer Screen This program offers several devices that you can interact with in our network layouts or networks that you want to create. The following is a list of these devices and their features.

Host 1900 Switch

It has 12 10BaseT switched ports and two FastEthernet switched ports.

2621 Router It has Enterprise edition 12.x software. The 2621 has two FastEthernet interfaces and two serial interfaces. 2811 Router It has Enterprise edition 12.4 software, four serial ports and two FastEthernet ports. 2950 Switch It has 12 FastEthernet, 10/100 ports to help you build your LANs and VLANs. 2960 Switch

It has eight FastEthernet ports and one GigabitEthernet port.

3550 Switch

To add one or more of any device, click the device button that corresponds to the host, router, or switch. A new object will appear in the left corner of the Network Visualizer screen. Drag and drop it wherever you want. Devices are labeled sequentially. For example, if you click on the 2811 device button, 2811 Router A will appear on the screen. If you click the device button again, 2811 Router B will appear on the screen. The next one would be 2811 Router C, and so on. There is an unlimited amount of devices that can be added to a Network Visualizer screen. You are only limited by your computer resources.

Lab 1.3: Connecting Devices

7

Lab 1.3: Connecting Devices Once you have placed devices onto the Network Visualizer screen, only a couple steps are required to connect them. They need to be connected so that the program knows they are in the same network. All devices must be connected into the same network for you to both configure and test for connectivity. In the following example, we will connect serial interface 0/0/0 of the 2811 Router A to serial interface 0/0/1 of 2811 Router B.

Lab Steps 1.

Right-mouse click 2811 Router A. A graphical representation of its ports will appear. It will appear on top of 2811 Router A.

10

Network Environment

Straight-Through is GREEN in color in our program and provides connectivity from hosts to switches and from routers to switches. This is a twisted-pair cable that uses RJ-45 connectors.

Cross-Over is WHITE in color in our program and is used to connect switch to switch and router to router on an Ethernet port. This cannot be used to connect hosts to switches or switches to routers.

Lab 1.4: Network Cables

11

Serial WAN is RED in color in our program and is represented by a lightning bolt. This is used to simulate a serial WAN connection and can only be connected to serial interfaces on a router. These are point-to-point only and can connect from router to router only via their serial ports. They cannot be used to connect to switches or hosts.

WAN connection A network connection through routers which connects two geographically distanced networks together. It typically connects several local area networks (LANs), usually through the Internet.

ICND1: Cisco IOS

Network Layout Load the network layout you have been working with for labs in section 1.

Lab Steps 1.

On the Network Visualizer screen, double-click on 2811 Router A. This will bring up a console screen. You interact with each device through the console screen. You will enter all your CLI commands such as configuring a device, testing connectivity, and displaying output.

Connectivity When testing for connectivity in a network, it refers to the ability of a source device such as a router to connect to a remote device, or another router. If you ping a remote router and it is unsuccessful, you have no connectivity. If your ping is successful, you have connectivity.

Lab 1.2: Logging In and Out of a Cisco Router

Output Information that is displayed on the console screen after you enter a show command. For example, if you enter the command show run, you get the following output: Building configuration...

Press Enter and the Router> prompt will appear. You are now in the User mode. This mode is mostly used to view statistics, though it is also a stepping-stone to logging into Privileged mode. You can only view and change the configuration of a Cisco router in Privileged mode, which you enter with the enable command. Router> Router>enable Router#

3.

You now end up with a Router# prompt, which indicates you are in Privileged mode. You can both view and change the configuration in Privileged mode. You can go back from Privileged mode to user mode by using the disable command. Router#disable Router>

4.

At this point you can type logout to exit the console. Router>logout Router con0 is now available Press Return to get started.

5.

Or you could just type logout or exit from the Privileged mode prompt to log out. Router>enable Router#logout Router con0 is now available Press RETURN to get started.

Lab 1.3: Overview of Router Modes It is important to understand the different prompts you can find when configuring a router so you can know where you are at any time within Configuration mode. In this lab, the prompts that are used on a Cisco router will be demonstrated. Always check your prompts before making any changes to a router’s configuration.

Lab 1.3: Overview of Router Modes

33


Router Modes Depending on what you want to do, you can go to different mode levels interacting with interfaces and devices. Most commands are mode specific. That means that many commands work in one mode but not another. That is why you have to change modes, depending on what command you want to enter. However, with the do command you can now enter privileged mode commands in Global Configuration mode. This works on the 2811 router (IOS version 12.4) and the 2960 and 3560 switch (IOS version 12.2 SE). The following chart displays the different modes you will encounter.

ICND1: Cisco IOS

34

Mode

Prompt

Typical Use

User

Router>

Usually the first login prompt when logged in to a Cisco router. Minimal, fundamental set of non configuration commands in this mode. Only basic router information is given in this mode. Show commands can be given which will result in output displayed in the console screen. Only information about the device is given.

Privileged

Router#

This mode is accessed by using the enable command from user mode. You can quit privilege mode by using the disable command. Can be and should be protected by an

enable or enable secret password.

All router functionality can be accessed from this level. Ping interfaces. Telnet to devices. Show commands that display routing information, interface protocols, and the systems entire running configuration. Global Configuration

Router(config#)

Configure or make changes that affect the entire router. Change your device host name. Change passwords. Set up access lists.

Interface

Router(config-if#)

Allows you to configure specific interfaces.

Routing-Configuration

Router(config-router) Allows you to configure the routing protocol.

Lab Steps 1.

On the Network Visualizer screen, double-click on 2811 Router A. This will bring up a console screen.

2.

Press Enter and the Router> prompt will appear. You are now in the User mode.

Lab 1.3: Overview of Router Modes

3.

35

Change to the Privileged mode. Router> Router>enable

4.

To configure a device from the CLI, you can make global changes to the router by typing configure terminal (config t for short), which puts you in Global Configuration mode and changes what is known as the running-config. You can type config from the Privileged mode prompt and then just press Enter to take the default of terminal. Router#config Configuring from terminal, memory, or network [terminal]?enter Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. Router(config)#

At this point you make changes that affect the router as a whole, hence the term Global Configuration mode. Notice the prompt is now Router(config)#. 5.

To make changes to an interface, you use the interface command from Global Configuration mode. Router(config)#interface ? Async Async interface BRI ISDN Basic Rate Interface BVI Bridge-Group Virtual Interface CTunnel CTunnel interface Dialer Dialer interface FastEthernet FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 Group-Async Async Group interface Lex Lex interface Loopback Loopback interface MFR Multilink Frame Relay bundle interface Multilink Multilink-group interface Null Null interface Tunnel Tunnel interface Vif PGM Multicast Host interface Virtual-Template Virtual Template interface Virtual-TokenRing Virtual TokenRing range interface range command Router(config)#interface fastethernet 0/0 Router(config-if)#

Notice the prompt changed to Router(config-if)# to tell you that you are in interface configuration.

36

6.

ICND1: Cisco IOS

Sub interfaces allow you to create virtual interfaces within the router. The prompt then changes to Router(config-subif)#. Router(config)#int f0/0.? <0-4294967295> FastEthernet interface number Router(config)#int f0/0.1 Router(config-subif)#

Type exit to go back to Global Configuration mode. Router(config-subif)#exit Router(config)#

7.

To configure User mode passwords, use the line command. The prompt then becomes Router(config-line)#. Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. Router(config)#line ? <0-70> First Line number aux Auxiliary line console Primary terminal line tty Terminal controller vty Virtual terminal Router(config)#line console 0 Router(config-line)#

The line console 0 command is known as a major, or global, command, and any command typed from the (config-line) prompt is known as a subcommand. 8.

Type exit to go back to Global Configuration mode. Router(config-line)#exit Router(config)#

9.

The line vty 0 1180 command is used to control inbound telnet connections. This is part of a series of commands that you use to set passwords for interfaces so that you can set up interface security and telnet from one device to another. Router(config)#line vty 0 1180 Router(config-line)#

10. Type exit to go back to Global Configuration mode. Router(config-line)#exit Router(config)#

11. To configure routing protocols like RIP, use the prompt (config-router)#. Router(config)#router rip Router(config-router)#

Lab 1.4: Editing and Help Features

37

It is not important that you understand what each of these commands do at this time. These will all be explained later in greater detail. What you need to understand is the different prompts available. This program supports the line console and line vty commands.

12. Type control+z to go back to Global Configuration mode. Control+z is noted as ctrl+z. Router(config-router)#ctrl+z Router#

Lab 1.4: Editing and Help Features You can use the Cisco® advanced editing features to help you configure your router or switch. This lab will teach you how and where to use a question mark (?) from the CLI as well as how to use keystrokes to help you edit your command strings.


38

ICND1: Cisco IOS

Lab Steps 1.


2.

Press enter and the Router> prompt will appear. You are now in the User mode.

3.

Change to the Privileged mode. Router> Router>enable

4.

By using a question mark (?) at any prompt, you can see the list of commands available from that prompt. Router#? Exec commands: access-enable access-profile access-template archive bfe cd clear clock cns configure connect copy debug delete dir disable disconnect enable erase exit help --More--

Create a temporary Access-List entry Apply user-profile to interface Create a temporary Access-List entry manage archive files For manual emergency modes setting Change current directory Reset functions Manage the system clock CNS subsystem Enter configuration mode Open a terminal connection Copy from one file to another Debugging functions (see also 'undebug') Delete a file List files on a filesystem Turn off privileged commands Disconnect an existing network connection Turn on privileged commands Erase a filesystem Exit from the EXEC Description of the interactive help system

At this point, you can press the spacebar to get another page of information, or you can press Enter to go one command at a time. You can also press any other key to quit and Enter to return to the prompt.

Lab 1.5 Using Shortcut Commands and Tab Completion

39

Supported Commands in CCNA Virtual Lab, Titanium Edition 3.0 Commands supported in this program were specifically chosen to represent the most important commands needed in configuring networks and in preparing for the CCNA exam. When you enter a help command such as ?, you will see a complete list of IOS commands. However, not all are available and supported in this program. To view supported commands for CCNA Virtual Lab, Titanium Edition 3.0:

1.

Bring up a console screen.

2.

Click the View menu.

3.

Click Supported Commands.

5.

To find commands that start with a certain letter, use the letter and the question mark (?) with no space between them. Router#c? clear clock cns configure connect copy cd Router#c

Notice that by typing “c?”, we receive a response of all the commands that start with “c”. Also notice that the Router# prompt appeared with our command still present. This is helpful when you have long commands and need the next possible command.

40

6.

ICND1: Cisco IOS

To find the next command in a string, type the first command and then a question mark. Set the router’s clock by typing clock ? and following the help screens; set the router’s time and date. Router#clock ? set Set the time and date Router#clock set ? hh:mm:ss Current Time Router#clock set 10:30:10 ? <1-31> Day of the month MONTH Month of the year Router#clock set 10:30:10 28 ? MONTH Month of the year Router#clock set 10:30:10 28 december ? <1993-2035> Year Router#clock set 10:30:10 28 december 2007 ? Router#

By typing the clock command, then a space and a question mark, you will get a list of the next possible commands and what they do. Notice that we just kept typing a command, a space, and then a question mark until < cr> (carriage return) was our only option. 7.

Type show clock to see the time and date you have set.

8.

If you are typing commands and receive this: Router#clock set 10:30:10 % Incomplete command.

Then you know that the command string is not complete. Just press the up arrow key to view the last command entered, then continue with the command by using your question mark. 9.

Also, if you receive this error: Router#clock shut 10:30:10 28 8 ^ % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

You have entered the command incorrectly. The caret (^) marks the point where you have entered the command incorrectly. This is very helpful. 10. You may receive an error when you type in a command that the program cannot match

with any known command. For example, Router#sh s % Ambiguous command:

"sh s"


41

It means you did not enter all the keywords or values required by this command. Use the question mark to find the command you need. Router#sh s? scp sessions slm smas smf snapshot snmp spanning-tree stacks standby startup-config subscriber-polocy subsys

11. Type show access-list 10. Don’t press Enter. 12. Notice the cursor is at the end of the line. Type Ctrl+ A. This takes you to the begin-

ning of the line. 13. Type Ctrl+ E. This should take you back to the end of the line. 14. Type Ctrl+ A, then type Control+ F. This should move you forward one character. 15. Type Ctrl + B, which will move you back one character. 16. Press Enter, then type Ctrl + P. This will repeat the last command. 17. Press the up arrow on your keyboard. This will also repeat the last command. 18. Use the show history command to see the last 10 commands entered on the router. Router#sh history

19. Use the show terminal command to verify the terminal history size. Router#sh terminal

20. The terminal history size command, used from Privileged mode, can change the

size of the history buffer. Router#terminal history size ? <0-256> Size of history buffer Router#terminal history size 25

ICND1: Cisco IOS

42

21. Verify the change with the show terminal command. Router#sh terminal

22. Type terminal no editing . This turns off advanced editing. Repeat steps 9-13 to see

that the shortcut editing keys have no effect. 23. Type terminal editing and press Enter to re-enable advanced editing. 24. Type sh run, then press your tab key. This will finish typing the command for you.

Press Enter and the Router> prompt will appear. You are now in the user mode.

3.

Change to the privileged mode. Router> Router>en

Shortcut Commands Most Cisco IOS commands do not have to be completely spelled out. To facilitate being able to more quickly enter commands, you only have to enter part of a command, plus, each word in a command can be abbreviated. For example the command enable can be shortened to en. Another example is the command show running-configurations. You can abbreviate that and just type in sh run. A final example is when you have the command show interfaces. You only need to type in sh int. The router or switch knows what you mean and correctly interprets and carries out that command. You do need to type in enough letters for each word in a command for the router or switch to correctly understand and interpret what you are trying to do. If you do not, you will receive feedback that one or more of your words are ambiguous. The reason for that is that letters in one or more of the words in your command can be used to spell out different words. In that case the device does not know what you want to do; there are too many possibilities. For example, type the following: Router>#s ver I get 2811A#s ver Cisco IOS Software, 2800 Software (C2800NM-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M), Version 12.4(9) T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2) Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport Copyright (c) 1986-2006 by Cisco Systems, Inc.[output cut] Router>A#s v % Ambiguous command: “show v” 2811 Router A recognized “s” to mean “show” but it did not recognize “v”.

Lab 1.5: Using Shortcut Commands and Tab Completion

Enter the following command: Router>#s v? vc-group version vlan-range vlan-switch vlans voice voip vpdn vrrp vsp vtemplate vtp In this case “v” could be the first letter in 12 different words. On a real 2800 device you would get the output with 12 different words. This program does not have 12 different words; therefore, your output will be different. Try this: 2811A#s v? Version Router>#s ver Cisco IOS Software, 2800 Software (C2800NM-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M), Version 12.4(9) T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2) Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport Copyright (c) 1986-2006 by Cisco Systems, Inc. [output cut] The 2811 A router recognized “s” to mean “show” but it did not recognize “v”. Enter the following command: Router>#s v? % incomplete command Try this: 2811A#s ve? Now you only have one word, so, the command s ve will work, along with sh ver, show ver, etc.

Lab 1.5: Using Shortcut Commands and Tab Completion

47

Tab Completion Function Most of the time you will use shortcut commands to configure devices because they are quick and convenient. However, if for any reason you want to enter all the words in a command, there is an alternative to manually entering every character. You can use the Tab Completion function to spell out any word. Just type part of the word and then press your tab key. It will complete the word. As shown in the earlier command in this lab you can type “sh ver” and press the tab key. The word “version” will be spelled out.

The show version command gives you how long the router has been running, how it was restarted, the IOS filename running, the model hardware and processor versions, and the amount of DRAM. Also, the configuration register value is listed last. The above router has 256 megabytes of RAM and 64 megabytes of Flash. 5.

You can view the router files by typing the command show running-config or show startup-config from privileged mode. The sh run command, which is the shortcut for show running-config, tells us that we are viewing the current configuration. Router#sh run Building configuration... Current configuration : 874 bytes ! version 12.4 service timestamps debug datetime msec service timestamps log datetime msec no service password-encryption ! hostname Router [cut]

6.

The sh start command, which is the shortcut for the show startup-config command, shows us the configuration that will be used the next time the router is reloaded and also shows us the amount of NVRAM used to store the startup-config file. Router#sh start Building configuration... Current configuration : 874 bytes ! version 12.4 service timestamps debug datetime msec

48

ICND1: Cisco IOS

service timestamps log datetime msec no service password-encryption ! hostname Router [cut]

7.

You can delete the startup-config file by using the command erase startup-config. Once you perform this command, you will receive an error if you try to view the startupconfig file. Router#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram file system will remove all configuration files! Continue? [confirm] (press Enter) [OK] Erase of nvram: complete Router# 00:13:30: %SYS-7-NV_BLOCK_INIT: Initialized the geometry of ... [cut]

8.

Verify that you have erased the startup configuration. Router#sh start startup-config is not present Router#

Lab 1.6: Setting Passwords There are five passwords used to secure Cisco routers. NN

NN

The first two passwords discussed in this lab are used to set your enable password, which is used to secure privileged mode. This will prompt a user for a password when the enable command is used. The other three are used to configure a password when user mode is accessed either through the console port, the auxiliary port, or Telnet.

Lab 1.6: Setting Passwords

49


Lab Steps 1.


2.


3.

Change to the privileged mode. Router> Router>enable

4.

Set the two enable passwords on your router. You set the enable passwords from Global Configuration mode. Router(config)#enable ? last-resort Define enable action if no TACACS servers respond

ICND1: Cisco IOS

50

password secret use-tacacs

Assign the privileged level password Assign the privileged level secret Use TACACS to check enable passwords

The enable secret and enable password commands are the only enable passwords that are supported in our program at this time. Router(config)#enable secret todd Router(config)#enable password cisco

Since the enable secret supercedes the enable password, don’t bother to use the enable password since it will never be used if the enable secret is set. 5.

Set your user mode passwords by using the line command. Router(config)#line ?

<0-1502> First Line number aux

Auxiliary line

console

Primary terminal line

tty

Terminal controller

vty

Virtual terminal

x/y

Slot/Port for Modems

x/y/z

Slot/Subslot/Port for Modems

NN

NN

NN

NN

Router(config)#line Aux is used to set the user-mode password for the auxiliary port. This is typically used for configuring a modem on the router but can be used as a console as well.

Console is used to set a console user-mode password. Vty is used to set a Telnet password on the router. If the password is not set, then Telnet cannot be used by default. This program does not support the tty and x/y and x/y/y modem line commands.

To configure the user mode passwords, you configure the line you want and use either the login or no login command to tell the router to prompt for authentication. 6.

Set the auxiliary password on your router. To configure the auxiliary password, go to global configuration mode and type line aux?. Notice that you only get a choice of 0–0 because there is only one port. Router#config t Enter configuration Router(config)#line <0-0> First Line Router(config)#line

commands, one per line. aux ? number aux 0

End with CTRL/Z.

Lab 1.6: Setting Passwords

51

Router(config-line)#login % Login disabled on line 65, until 'password' is set Router(config-line)#password todd Router(config-line)#login

It is important to remember the login command, or the auxiliary port won’t prompt for authentication. However, in the newer IOS that we are now running, the login command cannot be set until you set a password. The reason they added this feature is because if you set the login command and not a password, you are locked out from that line. 7.

Set your console password on your router. To set the console password, use the line console 0 command. However, notice that when we tried to type line console 0 ? from the aux line configuration, we got an error. You can still type line console 0 and it will accept it; however, the help screens do not work from that prompt. Type Exit to get back one level if you want to use the help option. Router(config-line)#line console ? % Unrecognized command Router(config-line)#exit Router(config)#line console ? <0-0> First Line number Router(config)#line console 0 Router(config-line)#login % Login disabled on line 0, until 'password' is set Router(config-line)#password todd1 Router(config-line)#login

Since there is only one console port, we can only choose line console 0. The new login feature works on the console line too. 8.

Set the optional console port commands on your router. There are a few other important commands to know for the console port. The exec-timeout 0 0 command sets the timeout for the console EXEC session to zero, or to never time out. To have fun with your friends at work, set it to 0 1, which makes the console time out in 1 second! The way to fix that is to continually press the down arrow key while changing the timeout time with your free hand. Logging synchronous is a nice command, and I think it should be a default command, but it is not. What this command provides is to stop console messages from popping up and disrupting input you are trying to type. This command makes reading your input messages much easier.

Here is an example of how to configure both commands: Router(config)#line con 0 Router(config-line)#exec-timeout ? <0-35791> Timeout in minutes

52

ICND1: Cisco IOS

Router(config-line)#exec-timeout 0 ? <0-2147483> Timeout in seconds Router(config-line)#exec-timeout 0 0 Router(config-line)#logging synchronous

9.

Set your Telnet password on your router. To set the user-mode password for Telnet access into the router, use the line vty command. Router(config)#line vty 0 ? <1-4> Last Line number Router(config)#line vty 0 1180 Router(config-line)#password todd2

Notice we did not use the login command with this line configuration. The login command is set by default on the VTY lines, which stops anyone telneting into the router until you set a password. If you try to telnet into a router that does not have a VTY password set, you will receive an error stating that the connection is refused because the password is not set. You can tell the router to allow Telnet connections without a password by using the no login command. By setting this next command, you will not be prompted for password when telneting into the router. This is not recommended, but this is how you would do that: Router(config-line)#line vty 0 4 Router(config-line)#no login Router(config-line)#ctrl+z Router#

After your routers are configured with an IP address, you can use the Telnet program to configure and check your routers. You can use the Telnet program by typing telnet from any command prompt (DOS or Cisco).

Lab 1.7: Encrypting Your Passwords Only the enable secret password is encrypted by default. You need to manually configure the user mode and enable passwords.

Lab 1.8: Saving Your Configurations If you have made changes to a device you will want to permanently save the configurations. Your running configuration is only in memory and if something happened; for example, if you lost power to a device, you would lose all unsaved entries. That is why you want to save your running configurations (DRAM) to the permanently stored startup configurations (NVRAM). You can manually save the file from DRAM to NVRAM by using the copy running-config startup-config command. You can also use the shortcut copy run start.


Lab Steps 1.

Save the configuration on 2811 Router A. Router#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?enter Building configuration...

Lab 1.9: Setting Router Banners

This will now place the file you created into NVRAM, which will be used the next time the router is booted up. 2.

You can view this file with the show startup config command. Router#show start

Lab 1.9: Setting Router Banners You can set a banner on a Cisco® router so that when either a user logs into the router or an administrator telnets into the router, for example, a banner will give them information you want them to have. Another reason for having a banner is to add a security notice to users dialing into your internetwork.

Lab 1.14: Configuring an IP Address on an Interface

Lab 1.14: Configuring an IP Address on an Interface You don’t have to use IP on your routers; however, IP is typically used on all routers and it certainly is used in this program. To configure IP addresses on an interface, use the ip address command from interface configuration mode.


Lab Steps 1.

Configure the FastEthernet 0/0 interface on 2621 Router A with the IP address of 172.16.10.2/24. Router#config t Router(config)#int fa0/0

73

74

ICND1: Cisco IOS

Router(config-if)#ip address 172.16.10.2 255.255.255.0 Router(config-if)#no shut

Notice that in order to enable an interface, we use the no shut command. Remember to look at the command show interface fa0/0, for example, which will show you if it is administratively shut down or not. Showrunning-config will also show you if the interface is shut down.

IP address Unique identification number for a device that is located on a network. An IP address is equivalent to the address of your home. The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 172.16.10.6 could be an IP address.

2.

If you want to add a second subnet address to an interface, then you must use the secondary command.

Subnet Address Is a range of logical addresses within the address space of an organization. This allows you to take one network and turn it into many more, smaller networks. This allows for less network traffic on each network and faster and more efficient networks.

If you type another IP address and press Enter, it will replace the existing IP address and mask. To add a secondary IP address, use the secondary command. Router(config-if)#ip address 172.16.20.2 255.255.255.0 secondary Router(config-if)#ctrl+z

3.

You can verify both addresses are configured on the interface with the show runningconfig command (show run for short). Router#show run Building configuration... Current configuration: [output cut] ! interface Fastethernet 0/0

Lab 1.15: Serial Interface Commands

ip address 172.16.20.2 255.255.255.0 secondary ip address 172.16.10.2 255.255.255.0

Lab 1.15: Serial Interface Commands To configure a serial interface, there are a couple of specifics that need to be discussed.

Serial Interface You have a connection between two devices where data is sent between the two, one bit at a time. This occurs in only one direction at a time.

75

76

ICND1: Cisco IOS

Typically, when in production, the interface will be attached to a CSU/DSU type of device that provides clocking for the line. However, if you have a back-to-back configuration used in a lab environment, for example, one end must provide clocking. This would be the DCE end of the cable. Cisco routers, by default, are all DTE devices, and you must tell an interface to provide clocking if it is to act as a DCE device. If you don’t completely understand this right now, don’t worry, you will. Just run through the commands below for now and I promise it will become clear to you later.

CSU/DSU A telecommunication device used to connect a carrier circuit to a router. The carrier circuit can be a DS1 or DS3, T1 or T3. The CSU/DSU converts the DS1 signal into signal that the local network can understand. The CSU/DSU also converts the signal from the local network into a DS1 signal so it can be carried back across the DS1 circuit.


Lab 1.15: Serial Interface Commands

77

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click on router 2621 Router A to bring up the console. Go to the privileged mode.

2.

You can configure a DCE serial interface with the clock rate command. Configure an interface that has a DCE connection. Router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. Router(config)#int s0/0 Router(config-if)#clock rate ? Speed (bits per second) 1200 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 56000 64000 72000 125000 148000 250000 500000 800000 1000000 1300000 2000000 4000000 <300-4000000> Choose clockrate from list above Router(config-if)#clock rate 64000 Router(config-if)#int s0/1 Router(config-if)#clock rate 64000

It does not hurt anything to try and put a clock rate on an interface. Notice that the clock rate command is in bits per second. If you are not on an interface that is set to DCE, you will receive an error when trying this command.

78

3.

ICND1: Cisco IOS

The next command you need to understand is the bandwidth command. Every Cisco router ships with a default serial link bandwidth of a T1, or 1.544Mbps. However, understand that this has nothing to do with how data is transferred over a link. The bandwidth of a serial link is used by routing protocols such as IGRP, EIGRP, and OSPF to calculate the best cost to a remote network. If you are using RIP routing, then the bandwidth setting of a serial link is irrelevant. Router(config-if)#bandwidth ? <1-10000000> Bandwidth in kilobits Router(config-if)#bandwidth 64

4.

Notice that unlike the clock rate command, the bandwidth command is configured in kilobits.

Lab 1.16: Setting the Router Hostnames You can uniquely identify a device by giving it a hostname; you use the hostname command. This is only locally significant for the administrator, which means it has no bearing on how the router performs name lookups on the internetwork. On a router the default hostname is Router and Switch on switches. This stays in effect until you intentionally change the hostname.

Lab Steps 1.

Set the hostname of 2621 Router A. Router(config-if)#ctrl+z Router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. Router(config)#hostname 2621A 2621A(config)#

2.

End with CTRL/Z.

Notice that when you press Enter the command takes effect immediately.

This program only supports IP ping at this time. 3.

You can also use the traceroute program to find the path a packet takes as it traverses an internetwork. Traceroute can also be used with multiple protocols.

Traceroute A TCP/IP utility that allows a user to determine if two computers are communicating successfully with each other. This network tool is used to determine the route taken by packets across an IP network. The time and location of the route taken to reach its destination computer is displayed. Traceroute works at layer 3 of the OSI model.

This program only supports IP with the trace command. 4.

Telnet can be used to test IP connectivity and to gain access into remote routers. Once you gain access into the remote router you can interact with the device as though you are physically in front of it. From the router prompt, you do not need to type the telnet command. If you just type a hostname or IP address, it will assume you want to telnet. The following example shows how to use Telnet from a router prompt. However, you need to have a configured a working network and destination host for Telnet to be successful. We will use Telnet more in other labs. 2621A#telnet ?

Another way to verify your configuration is by typing show interface commands. The first command is show interface?, which shows us all the available configured or physical interfaces for a device. The only interfaces that are not logical are FastEthernet and Serial. 2621A#show int ?

Lab 1.19: do Command The do command allows you ping other devices and view configurations while in the global configuration mode. Before IOS version 12.3, you could not use the do command. You had to be in user or privileged mode in order to ping other devices or view configurations. However, beginning with IOS version 12.3 you can use the do command in the configuration mode to accomplish this. With IOS version 12.2 you can also use the do command if you have the IOS Special Edition (SE). The do command is convenient because you do not have to exit the current configuration mode and perform the command in the privileged mode. With this program, there are three devices that will allow you to use the do command in global configuration mode: N

Lab 2.1: Configuring the SDM for the 2811 Router Cisco® SDM is a Web-based device-management tool for routers. The SDM is a graphical user interface that allows you to quickly configure the 2811 router. After the initial setup, no interaction with the command line interface (CLI) is required. Before you can use SDM, you must first manually configure 2811 Router A with the CLI. In this lab we will configure 2811 Router A. Then, there are two more steps that must be finished before you can launch the SDM:

1.

Configure Host A because that is where we will launch SDM

2.

Set up https services on the router so you can configure 2811 Router A via a secure web browser

Network Layout Load SDM Layout.rsm before going through the following lab.

Clock Rate It is important to understand clocking on and interface. On a real connection, clocking issues will typically cause data loss and or packet errors. You will also see framing slips on a carrier circuit when there is a clocking issue. You do not have to set a clock rate if the DCE side of your connection is a 2811 router. The clock rate for the serial interface is set by default to 2000000. However, on the 2621 router you still need to explicitly set the clock rate. In our lab the DCE side of the connection is interface serial 0/1/1 and serial 0/0/1.


Finding DCE DCE (data communications equipment) is the side of the connection that provides the clocking. Unless it is a 2811 router, you would enter the clock rate on the DCE side of a connection between routers. If you cannot remember what side of your connection is DCE, you can use the show controllers command. Here is an example: 2811#show controllers s0/1/1 Interface Serial0/1/1 Hardware is GT96K DCE V.35, clock rate 2000000 idb at 0x454E69C8, driver data structure at 0x454EE0EC wic_info 0x454EE6E8 Physical Port 0, SCC Num 0 [output cut]

The DCE connection is associated with s0/1/1 and a clockrate of 2000000. 3.

Click the Save button. At this point your network layout has been saved to a new name. You then have the option of reloading Standard Layout.rsm which is non-configured.

Lab 2.9: Configuring Static Routing This lab will have you build the routing tables by hand, which means you will create static routing tables on each router. This will allow you to route throughout the entire network. At this point you can only route to directly connected networks of each router. Remember that the routing will not work until all static routes are configured in all routers. static route is a manually hard coded routing statement that creates a route in the routing table of a router. The static route specifies how the router will get to a certain network by using a certain path. Static routing refers to the manual method used to set up routing. This method has the advantage of being simple to create and predictable in its functionality. It is easy to manage in small networks but in larger ones it is difficult to set up and manage all

possible static routes. Static routes are not dynamically responsive to topology changes in a network.

Lab 2.9: Configuring Static Routing

129

Lab Steps 1.

From 2621 Router A, use the ip route command to configure static routing. 2621 Router A is connected to networks 172.16.20.0 and 172.16.40.0 and a static route must be configured for EVERY network that is not directly connected. The next hop gateway is always 172.16.20.1 (router 2811 A). 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#ip route 172.16.30.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#ip route 172.16.50.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#exit 2621A#copy run start

Anatomy of a Command:IP Route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 ip route

tells the system we are entering a static route

172.16.10.0

this is the destination ip network address, where we want to send packets

255.255.255.0 the mask of the destination ip network 172.16.20.1 the IP address of the next hop used to reach the destination address

2.

From 2621 Router, use the ip route command to configure static routing. 2621 Router B is connected to networks 172.16.30.0 and 172.16.50.0 and a static route must be configured for EVERY network that is not directly connected. The next hop gateway is always 172.16.30.1 (router 2811 A). 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.30.1 2621B(config)#ip route 172.16.20.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.30.1 2621B(config)#ip route 172.16.40.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.30.1 2621B(config)#exit 2621B#copy run start

3.

From 2811 Router A, use the ip route command to configure static routing. 2811 Router A is connected to networks 172.16.10.0, 172.16.20.0 and 172.16.30.0 and a static route must be configured for EVERY network that is not directly connected. The next hop gateway will be either to 2621 Router A or the 2621 Router B. 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#ip route 172.16.40.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.2

Directly Connected Routes In the preceding set of ip route commands for 2811 Router A, routes are not established for networks 20 and 30. 2811 Router A knows about these networks (routes) because they are directly connected to the router. Therefore you do not have to enter ip route commands for these two networks; only for networks that are not directly connected to 2811 Router A, such as networks 40 and 50.

Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working with.

Lab 2.10: Verifying Static Routing It is important to be able to verify your configurations. The best command to use is show ip route. However, if a route is not in your routing table, make sure it is correctly configured in the running-config. If you see a routing entry in the running-config but it is not in the routing table, check the entry for a typo. If it is correct, then make sure the link to that network is up.

IP address unique identification number for a device that is located on a network. An IP address is equivalent to the address of your home. The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 172.16.10.6 could be an IP address. subnet mask when you split up an IP network it is used to determine what section or subnet the ip address of a networked device belongs to. An IP address has two parts, the network address and the host address. Let’s examine IP address 172.16.10.6. Assuming this is part of a Class B network, the first two numbers (172.16) represent the Class B network address, and the second two numbers (10.6) identify a particular host on this network. default gateway IP address configured on a networked device that allows that device to communicate outside of its own subnet. A default gateway is usually a layer 3 device like a router. When a network device wants to get to the Internet, it uses a default gateway. A default gateway IP address is equivalent to the on ramp of a highway.

Lab 2.12: Configuring Default Routing Static routing is great in small networks, and is even better when you are trying to learn IP routing since you really have to understand how the network works to make static routing perform correctly. Configuring default routing on a router is not like setting the default gateway on a host. Remember that a router is the default gateway and you cannot set a default gateway on a router. However, you can set what is called a Gateway of Last Resort.

Gateway of Last Resort If a packet is destined for a network that is not listed in the routing table, the router will forward the packet to the default route.

You can only configure default routing on a router that is connected to a stub network, which means that there is not another router on the connected networks. In other words, there is only one way in and out. Routers 2621 A and 2621 B are stub routers to the LANs because they are the only way in and out of the LAN. Router 2811 A cannot use default routing because it is connected to multiple routes.

Lab 2.12: Configuring Default Routing

143

To configure default routing, use the ip route command, but instead of using the network and subnet mask, you use all zero (0’s), which mean all networks all masks. You must also use the ip classless command when using default routing. This tells the router to not drop packets, but instead to forward them to the default route address. Instead of typing all the commands by hand, you can use your up-arrow key to get the command you want to remove. Then press ctrl+a to move your cursor to the beginning of the line, then type no and press Enter. This is just an easier way to remove the static routes.


Lab Steps 1.

Before configuring routers 2621 A and B with default routing, you must remove the static routes we created in lab 5.8. Use the no ip route command. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no ip route 172.16.10.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#no ip route 172.16.30.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#no ip route 172.16.50.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#exit

4.

From the 2621 Router A, add the default route to 2811 Router A. The default route command will tell the router to send all packets destined for any network not in the routing table to the router 2811 A, which will then route the packet. 2621A(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#ip classless 2621A(config)#exit 2621A#copy run start

Task: Configure default routing on the R&D_R1 router Configure default routing on the Plant-1 router

Lab 2.14: Configuring RIPv2 This lab will have you configure RIPv2. RIPv2 RIP does not carry subnet information. To overcome this, RIPv2 was created in 1994 to address some deficiencies in RIP. RIPv2 can carry subnet information. RIPv2 sends

150

IP Routing

routing updates via multicast address 224.0.0.9. It also provides support for variable length subnet masks (VLSM) and discontiguous networking. RIPv2 is not automatically turned on with the router rip command. You must also specify it and use the version 2 command. VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Mask) the network IP address 192.168.10.0/24 can be used to create subnets that have different subnet masks. You can create subnets 192.168.10.36/30 and 192.168.10.80/29 out of the 192.168.10.0/24 network IP address. You can use the 192.168.10.36/30 networks on your WAN links and 192.168.10.80/29 on one of your LAN segments. It is useful to use VLSM when you have different numbers of networked devices at each of your branch offices. VLSM helps IP administrators use their IP address resources more efficiently. discontiguous networking when a major network like 192.168.10.0 is separated by a different major network like 10.0.0.0. Example: The 192.168.10.0/24 network can be subnetted into two or more networks. The networks 192.168.10.36/30 and 192.168.10.80/29 are configured on different routers. The routers are using the 10.0.0.0 network to connect to each other, thus one major network is being separated by another major network.

Double-click 2621 Router A. After the console screen comes up configure interface s0/0. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2621A 2621A(config-if)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.20.2 255.255.255.0 2621A(config-if)#no shutdown 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z


153

2621A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? [enter] Building configuration... [OK] 2621A#

2.

Bring up the console for 2811 Router A. After the console screen configure the interfaces. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2811A 2811A(config-if)#int s0/1/1 2811A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.20.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-if)#no shutdown 2811A(config-if)#int s0/0/1 2811A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.30.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-if)#no shutdown 2811A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2811A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? [enter] Building configuration... [OK] 2811A#

Please Note: You do not have to set the DCE connection associated with s0/1/1 which has a clockrate of 2000000. It is there by default. 3.

Double-click 2621 Router B. After the console screen comes up configure interface s0/0. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2621B 2621Bconfig-if)#int s0/0 2621B(config-if)#ip address 172.16.30.2 255.255.255.0 2621B(config-if)#no shutdown 2621B(config-if)#ctr+z 2621B#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? [enter] Building configuration... [OK] 2621B#

IP Routing

154

4.

On each the 2621 routers, enter the command show ip route. You should only see directly connected networks in the routing table. 2621B#show ip 172.16.0.0/24 C 172.16.30.0 2621A#show ip 172.16.0.0/24 C 172.16.20.0

route is subnetted, 1 subnets is directly connected, Serial0/0 route is subnetted, 1 subnets is directly connected, Serial0/0

Configure each device with RIPv2

RIPv2 RIP does not carry subnet information. To overcome this, RIPv2 was created in 1994 to address some deficiencies in RIP. RIPv2 can carry subnet information. RIPv2 sends routing updates via multicast address 224.0.0.9. It also provides support for variable length subnet masks (VLSM) and discontiguous networking. RIPv2 is not automatically turned on with the router rip command. You must also specify it and use the version 2 command.

5.

From 2621 Router A, configure RIP routing to use version 2. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#router rip 2621A(config-router)#version 2 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z

6.

From 2621 Router B, configure RIP routing to use version 2. 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#router rip 2621B(config-router)#version 2 2621B(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2621B(config-router)#ctrl+z

7.

From 2811 Router A, configure RIP routing to use version 2. 2811A#config t 2811Aconfig)#router rip


155

2811A(config-router)#version 2 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z

Verify RIPv2 configurations 8.

On both 2621 routers, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. It should now have entries for router rip. 2621A#show ip 172.16.0.0/24 R 172.16.30.0 C 172.16.20.0

9.

route is subnetted, 2 subnets [120/2] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:20, Serial0/0 is directly connected, Serial0/0

From 2621 Router B, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621B#show ip 172.16.0.0/24 C 172.16.30.0 R 172.16.20.0

route is subnetted, 2 subnets is directly connected, Serial0/0 [120/1] via 172.16.30.1, 00:00:24, Serial0/0

10. Ping the interfaces on 2811 Router A.

From 2621 Router A, ping s0/0/1 on 2811 Router A. It should succeed. 2621A#ping 172.16.30.1

From 2621 Router B, ping s0/1/1 on 2811 Router A. It should succeed. 2621B#ping 172.16.20.1

Use Traceroute 12. On 2621 Router A, trace the route to interface s0/0 of 2621 Router B. 2621A#traceroute 172.16.30.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Tracing the route to 172.16.30.2 1 172.16.20.1 12 msec 14 msec 12 msec 2 172.16.30.2 32 msec * 28 msec

Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working on. You might want to save it with a different network name than Traceroute Layout.rsm. That allows you to load nonconfigured Traceroute Layout.rsm if you want to go through the lab again.

1. On the Network Visualizer screen, click on the File menu and then click Open. 2. When the dialog box appears, make sure you are in the Networks folder. 3. Click on the file Traceroute Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab 2.18: Configuring and Verifying a Loopback Interface

157

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click 2811 Router A. After the console screen comes up enter the command debug ip rip. It will take several seconds for output to appear in the console. 2811A>enable 2811A#debug ip rip *Feb 25 04:59:00.819: *Feb 25 04:59:00.819: *Feb 25 04:59:00.819: *Feb 25 04:59:16.146: (172.16.30.1) *Feb 25 04:59:16.146: *Feb 25 04:59:16.146: *Feb 25 04:59:16.146: *Feb 25 04:59:16.147: (172.16.20.1) *Feb 25 04:59:16.147: *Feb 25 04:59:16.147: *Feb 25 04:59:16.147: *Feb 25 04:59:18.562: *Feb 25 04:59:18.562: *Feb 25 04:59:18.562:

The debug activity will keep displaying information until you stop it. Press any key to stop information from displaying on the console screen. Then enter the no debug ip rip command. You will then see confirmation that debugging has been turned off. 2811A#no debug ip rip RIP protocol debugging is off

Lab 2.18: Configuring and Verifying a Loopback Interface A loopback interface is not a real, hardware-based interface like serial 0/0/0/ or fa0/1. It is a logical or virtual interface that is always “up” unlike a hardware interface that may be “up” or “down.” It is the best interface to ping in order to see if the router is “up.” In this lab you will create a loopback network.

Lab 2.19: Using ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)

161

Lab 2.19: Using ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) ARP finds the unique hardware address of network devices based on IP addresses of the interface. If IP cannot find the destination of the hardware address, the system uses ARP to retrieve this information. In sending data (packets) the source must also have a destination MAC address. If the source does not know the MAC address of the destination, it has to get that address before data can be sent. To obtain the unknown layer 2 address when the layer 3 address is known, the source transmits an ARP Request. All devices on the path will see it but the only device that will answer it is the one with the matching layer 3 address. That device will send an ARP Reply, unicast back to the source. The sender will then have a MAC address to go with the IP address and can then transmit.

Network Layout Load ARP Layout.rsm before going through the following lab.

1. On the Network Visualizer screen, click on the File menu and then click Open. 2. When the dialog box appears, make sure you are in the Networks folder. 3. Click on the file ARP Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab 3.1: Password Recovery Techniques All Cisco® routers have a 16-bit software register, which is written into NVRAM. By default, the configuration register is set to load the Cisco IOS from flash memory and to look for and load the startup-config file from NVRAM. By changing the configuration register, you can perform password recovery on a Cisco router. If you are locked out of a router because you forgot the password, you can change the configuration register to help you recover. Bit 6 in the configuration register is used to tell the router whether or not to use the contents of NVRAM to load a router configuration. The default configuration register value for bit 6 is 0x2102 (the 0 is bit 6), which means that bit 6 is off. With the default setting, the router will look for and load a router configuration stored in NVRAM (startup-config). To recover a password, you need to turn on bit 6, which will tell the router to ignore the NVRAM contents. The configuration register value to turn on bit 6 is 0x2142.

Lab 3.1: Password Recovery Techniques

169

Network Layout Load Standard Layout.rsm or whatever you named the file when you saved your work while working in section 2.

Lab Steps 1.

You can see the current value of the configuration register by using the show version command (sh version or show ver for short), as in the following example on 2621 Router A: 2621A#show version Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) C2621 Software (C2621-BIN-M), Version 12.2(13)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) [output cut] Configuration register is 0x2102

The last information given from this command is the value of the configuration register. In this example, the value is 0x2102, which is the default setting. 2.

You can change the configuration register by using the config-register command. For example, the following commands tell the router to boot from ROM monitor mode and then to verify the current configuration register value: 2621A(config)#config-register 0x0101 2621A(config)#ctrl+z

170


2621A#sh ver [output cut] Configuration register is 0x2102 (will be 0x0101 at next reload)

Notice that the show version command shows the current configuration register value, as well as what it will be when the router reboots. Any change to the configuration register will not take effect until the router is reloaded. 3.

From 2621 Router A, type reload at the privileged mode prompt. 2621A#copy run start 2621A#reload

4.

You will then see this output on your screen: “System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: “. Press Y.

5.

You will then be asked to confirm the reload. Press Enter.

6.

When the router is rebooting, press and hold ctrl+break on the keyboard, until it takes you into rom monitor mode. System Bootstrap, Version 11.3(2)XA4, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) Copyright (c) 1999 by Cisco Systems, Inc.

7.

To change the bit value on a Cisco 2621 series router, simply enter the confreg (meaning config register) command at the prompt: rommon 1 >confreg 0x2142

You must reset or power cycle for new config to take effect. 8.

At this point, reset the router. rommon 1 >reset

9.

When the router reloads, say no to entering setup mode.

10. Enter privileged mode and then type copy startup-config running-config. 11. Change your passwords and then save your configuration with the copy run start

command. 12. Change your configuration register back to 0x2102. rommon 1 > confreg 0x2102

Lab 3.11: Configuring IGRP Routing Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) is a Cisco proprietary distance vector routing protocol. It is an updated RIP routing protocol that uses an administrative distance of 100, so it will automatically overwrite RIP found routes in the routing table. Also, it uses Autonomous Systems (AS) to create groups of routers that share routing information. To configure IGRP, it is basically the same as RIP except you choose your AS number. All routers must use the same number as you want them to share information.

A dialog box will appear. At the bottom you will see the file name IGRP Layout.rsm. Rename the file. For example, you could name it My IGRP Layout.rsm.

3.

Click the Save button. At this point your network layout has been saved to a new name. You then have the option of reloading IGRP Layout.rsm which is non-configured.

Lab 3.12: Verifying IGRP Routing Since IGRP has a better administrative distance then RIP, all the routing tables should have IGRP found routes. Use the show ip route command and then the debugging tools to verifying IGRP.

Network Layout Load IGRP Layout.rsm or whatever you named the file when you saved your work in Lab 3.11.

178


Lab Steps 1.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621A#show ip route [output cut] 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets I 172.16.20.0 [100/160250] via 172.16.10.1, 00:00:14, Serial0/1 C 172.16.10.0 is directly connected, Serial0/1 2621A

Notice the “I” found routes. This is IGRP. 2.

Use the show ip protocol command from 2621 Router A. 2621A#show ip protocol Routing Protocol is "igrp 10" Sending updates every 90 seconds, next due in 25 seconds Invalid after 270 seconds, hold down 270, flushed after 630 Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Default networks flagged in outgoing updates Default networks accepted from incoming updates IGRP metric weight K1=1, K2=0, K3=1, K4=0, K5=0 IGRP maximum hop count 100 IGRP maximum metric variance 1 Redistributing: igrp 10 Routing for networks: 172.16.0.0 Routing information sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.10.1 100 00:01:05 Distance: 2621A#

Notice that the timer for IGRP to send out updates is every 90 seconds. 3.

From 2621 Router B, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621B#show ip route [output cut] 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/1 C 172.16.10.0 is directly connected, Serial 2621B#

Lab 3.2: Backing Up the Cisco IOS

179

Routing tables take a small amount of time to update. 4.

From 2621 Router C, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621C#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 I 172.16.10.0 [100/160250] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:48, Serial0/0 2621C#

5.

Use the debug ip igrp events command to see IGRP updates being sent and received on the router. See above. 2621A#debug ip igrp events IGRP protocol debugging is on ld23h: IGRP: sending update to 255.255.255.255 via Serial0/1 <172.16.10.2> ld23h: IGRP: Update contains 1 interior, 0 system, and 0 exterior routes. ld23h: IGRP: Total routes in update: 1 2621A#

6.

Turn off debugging with the no debug ip igrp events command, or the undebug all command. 2621A#undebug all

7.

Use the debug ip igrp transactions command to see a summary of the IGRP events being processed on the router. 2621A#debug ip igrp transactions IGRP protocol debugging is on 2621A# ld23h: IGRP: sending update to 255.255.255.255 via Serial0/1 <172.16.10.2> ld23h: subnet 172.16.10.0, metric=189250 2621A#

8.

You can turn off the debug ip igrp transactions command. 2621A#no debug ip igrp transactions

Lab 3.2: Backing Up the Cisco IOS Before you upgrade or restore a Cisco® IOS, you should copy the existing file to a tftp host as a backup in case the new image does not work. You can use any tftp host to perform this function. By default, the flash memory in a router is used to store the Cisco® IOS. The

180


following sections describe how to check the amount of flash memory, copy the Cisco® IOS from flash memory to a tftp host, and then copy the IOS from a tftp host to flash memory.

Flash Memory Is computer memory that can hold information even when the device is powered down. Information can be be written to and stored in this memory.


Lab Steps 1.

Before you attempt to upgrade the Cisco® IOS on your router with a new IOS file, you should verify that your flash memory has enough room to hold the new image. You can verify the amount of flash memory and the file or files being stored in flash memory by using the show flash command: 2621A#show flash System flash directory: File Length Name/status 1 6973004 c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin [6973068 bytes used, 1415540 available, 8388608 total] 8192K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)

Lab 3.3: Restoring or Upgrading the Cisco Router IOS

181

2.

The last line in the router output shows that the flash is 8192K or 8MB, which is plenty of room for a new file that we want to use that is 6MB in size. Once you verify that the flash memory can hold the IOS you want to copy into flash memory, you can continue with your backup operation.

3.

The key to success in this backup routine is to make sure you have good connectivity to the tftp host. You can check this by pinging the device from the router console prompt, as in the following example: 2621A#ping 172.16.40.3 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.40.3, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/8 ms

4.

After you ping the tftp host to make sure that IP is working, you can use the copy flash tftp command to copy the IOS to the tftp host, as shown below. Notice that after you enter the command, the name of the file in flash memory is displayed. This makes it easy for you. 2621A#copy flash tftp Source filename []? c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin Address or name of remote host []? 172.16.40.3 Destination filename [c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin]?(press enter) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [output cut] 6973004 bytes copied in 57.704 secs (120841 bytes/sec) 2621A#

5.

In this example, the content of flash memory was copied successfully to the tftp host. The address of the remote host is the IP address of the tftp host. The source filename is the file in flash memory. This was a pretty simple process as long as your router can talk to the tftp host.

Lab 3.3: Restoring or Upgrading the Cisco Router IOS You may need to restore the Cisco® IOS to flash memory to replace an original file that has been damaged or to upgrade the IOS. You can download the file from a tftp host to flash memory by using the copy tftp flash command. This command requires the IP address of the tftp host and the name of the file you want to download to flash memory.

182


No real files are used in this lab. This is just an exercise to show how it is done.

Lab Steps 1.

Type copy tftp flash command from the 2621 A router’s privileged mode prompt. You will see a message informing you that the router must reboot and run a ROM-based IOS image to perform this operation: 2621A#copy tftp flash Address or name of remote host []? 172.16.40.3 Source filename []? c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin Destination filename [c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin]? (press enter) %Warning:There is a file already existing with this name Do you want to over write? [confirm] (press enter) Accessing tftp://172.16.40.3/c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin... Erase flash: before copying? [confirm] (press enter) Erasing the flash filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] (press enter) Erasing device... eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ...erased Erase of flash: complete Loading c2600-bin-mz.122-13.T1.bin from 1.1.1.1 (via FastEthernet0/0): !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [output cut]

2.

After you tell the router where the file is and the filename, it asks you to confirm that you understand the contents of flash memory will be erased as shown in the output above. You are prompted twice, just to make sure that you really want to proceed with erasing flash memory.

3.

The row of e characters shows the contents of flash memory being erased. Each exclamation point (!) means that one UDP segment has been successfully transferred.

Lab 3.4: Backing Up the Cisco Configuration Any changes that you make to the router configuration are stored in the running-config file. If you do not perform a copy run start command after you make a change to runningconfig, that change will be gone if the router reboots or gets powered down. You may want

Lab 3.4: Backing Up the Cisco Configuration

183

to make another backup of the configuration information as an extra precaution in case the router or switch completely dies or for documentation. The following lab describes how to copy the configuration of a router to a tftp host.


Lab Steps 1.

2.

To copy the router’s configuration from a router to a tftp host, you can use either the copy running-config tftp or copy starting-config tftp command. Either command will back up the router configuration that is currently running in DRAM or that is stored in NVRAM. To verify the configuration in DRAM, use the show running-config command (show run for short), as follows: 2621A#show run Building configuration... Current configuration: ! version 12.2 [output cut]

184


The current configuration information indicates that the router is now running version 12.2 of the IOS. 3.

Next, you would check the configuration stored in NVRAM. To see this, use the show startup-config command (show start for short), as follows: 2621A#show start Using 781 out of 32762 bytes ! version 12.2 [output cut]

The second line shows how much room your backup configuration is using. In this example, NVRAM is 32KB and only 781 bytes of it are used. Notice that the version of configuration in NVRAM is 12.2. If you are not sure that the files are the same, and the running-config file is what you want to use, then use the copy running-config startup-config to make sure both files are the same. By copying running-config to NVRAM as a backup, as shown below, you are assured that your running-config will always be reloaded if the router gets rebooted. 2621A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?(press enter) Building configuration... [OK]

4.

Now when you enter the show starting-config command, the version shows the latest configuration. 2621A#show startup-config Using 781 out of 32762 bytes ! version 12.2

5.

Once the file is copied to NVRAM, you can make a second backup to a tftp host by using the copy running-config tftp command (copy run tftp for short), as follows: 2621A#copy run tftp Address or name of remote host []? 172.16.40.3 Destination filename [2621A-confg]? enter !! 487 bytes copied in 12.236 secs (40 bytes/sec) 2621A#

6.

Notice that this took only two exclamation points (!), which are two UDP acknowledgments. If you have a hostname configured, the command will automatically use the hostname plus the extension config as the name of the file.

Lab 3.5: Restoring the Cisco Router Configuration from a TFTP Server

185

Lab 3.5: Restoring the Cisco Router Configuration from a TFTP Server If you have changed your router’s running-config and want to restore the configuration to the version in startup-config, the easiest way to do this is to use the copy startupconfig running-config command (copy start run for short). You can also use the older Cisco® command, config mem, to restore a configuration. Of course, this will work only if you first copied running-config into NVRAM before making any changes.


Lab Steps 1.

If you copied the router’s configuration to a tftp host as a second backup, you can restore the configuration using the copy tftp running-config command (copy tftp run for short) or the copy tftp startup-config command (copy tftp start for short), as shown below. 2621A#copy tftp run Address or name of remote host []? 172.16.40.3 Source filename []? 2621A-confg Destination filename [running-config]?(press enter)

186


Accessing tftp://172.16.40.3/2621A-confg... Loading 2621A-confg from 172.16.40.3 (via Fastethernet 0/0): !! [OK - 487/4096 bytes] 487 bytes copied in 5.400 secs (97 bytes/sec) 2621A# 00:38:31: %SYS-5-CONFIG: Configured from tftp://172.16.40.3/2621A-confg 2621A#

2.

After you copy your configuration from a tftp host to your router, you must then enable your interfaces as they are automatically shut down.

Lab 3.6: Using the Cisco Discovery Protocol to Gather Information about Neighbor Devices Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a proprietary protocol designed by Cisco to help administrators collect information about both locally attached and remote devices. You can gather hardware information, as well as protocol information about neighbor devices. This information is useful for troubleshooting and documenting the network.


Lab 3.6: Using the Cisco Discovery Protocol to Gather Information about Neighbor Devices

187

Lab Steps 2621 Router A and 2621 Router B need to be configured in order for output to appear when you go through this lab.

1.

First gather CDP information on your router by getting CDP Timers and Holdtime Information. Use the show cdp command (sh cdp for short) which shows information about two CDP global parameters that can be configured on Cisco devices. The output on a router looks like this: 2811A#show cdp Global CDP information: Sending CDP packets every 60 seconds Sending a holdtime value of 180 seconds Sending CDPv2 advertisements is enabled 2811A# N

NN

CDP timer is how often CDP packets are transmitted to all active interfaces. CDP holdtime is the amount of time that the device will hold packets received from neighbor devices.

Both the Cisco routers and the Cisco switches use the same parameters. 2.

Use the global commands cdp holdtime and cdp timer to configure the CDP holdtime and timer on a router. 2811A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. 2811A(config)#cdp ? advertise-v2 CDP sends version-2 advertisements holdtime Specify the holdtime (in sec) to be sent in packets log Log messages generated by CDP run Enable CDP source-interface Insert the interface's IP in all CDP packets timer Specify rate (in sec) at which CDP packets are sent> 2811A(config)#cdp timer 90 2811A(config)#cdp holdtime 240 2811A(config)#ctrl+z

3.

You can turn off CDP completely on the router with the no cdp run command from global configuration mode of a router. Enable CDP with the cdp run command. 2811A(config)#no cdp run 2811 (config)#cdp run 2811A(config)#ctrl+z


188

4.

To turn off or on CDP on a router interface, use the no cdp enable and cdp enable commands. Enable CDP on the interface with the cdp enable command. 2811A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/0 2811A(config-if)#no cdp enable 2811A(config-if)#cdp enable 2811A(config)#ctrl+z

5.

The show cdp neighbor command (show cdp nei for short) shows information about directly connected devices. It is important to remember that CDP packets are not passed through a Cisco switch, and you only see what is directly attached. On a router connected to a switch, you will not see the other devices connected to the switch. The following output shows the show cdp neighbor command used on the 2811 A router. 2811A#show cdp nei Device ID Local Intrfce 2621B Ser 0/0 Ser 0/0/1 2621A Ser 0/0 Ser 0/1/1 2811A#

189

Another command that provides neighbor information is the show cdp neighbor detail command (show cdp nei de for short), which also can be run on the router or switch. This command shows detailed information about each device connected to the device, as in the router output below. 2811A#show cdp neighbor detail ------------------------Device ID: 2621B Entry address(es): IP Address: 172.16.30.2 Platform: cisco 2621, Capabilities: Router Interface: Serial0/0, Port ID (outgoing port): Serial0/0/1 Holdtime : 146 sec Version : Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) C2600 Software (C2600-BIN-M), Version 12.2(13)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) TAC Support: http://www.cisco.com/tac Copyright (c) 1986-2003 by Cisco Systems, Inc.

The output above shows the hostname and IP address of the directly connected devices. In addition to the same information displayed by the show cdp neighbor command, the show cdp neighbor detail command also shows the IOS version of the neighbor device.

Lab 3.7: Using Telnet

8.

191

The show cdp traffic command displays information about interface traffic, including the number of CDP packets sent and received and the errors with CDP. The following output shows the show cdp traffic command used on a router. 2811A#show cdp traffic CDP counters : Total packets output: 14556, Input: 7366 Hdr syntax: 0, Chksum error: 0, Encaps failed: 0 No memory: 0, Invalid packet: 0, Fragmented: 0 CDP version 1 advertisements output: 0, Input: 0 CDP version 2 advertisements output: 14556, Input: 7366 2811A#

Lab 3.7: Using Telnet Telnet is a virtual terminal protocol that is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. Telnet allows you to make connections to remote devices and gather information and run programs. To start a Telnet session, logging into a another device requires a valid username and password on the destination hardware. After your routers and switches are configured, you can use the Telnet program to configure and check your routers and switches instead of needing to use a console cable. You use the Telnet program by typing telnet from any command prompt (DOS or Cisco). VTY passwords must be set on the routers for this to work. You cannot use CDP to gather information about routers and switches that are not directly connected to your device. However, you can use the Telnet application to connect to your neighbor devices and then run CDP on those remote devices to gather CDP information about remote devices. In this lab we will telnet from 2621 Router B into 2621 Router A and 3550 Switch A. In a prior lab we have configured 2621 Router A but now we need to configure 3550 Switch A at the start of this lab.

192


Network Layout Load Standard Layout.rsm or whatever you named the file when you saved your work while working in section 2. You need a configured network in order to complete this lab.

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click 3550 Switch A in order to bring up the console screen.

2.

Perform the following commands: Switch>en Switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z Switch(config)#

3.

To set the IP configuration on a 3550 switch, use the ip address command. However, this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why


the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. Let’s also set the hostname so that we can more clearly identify this device when we telnet into it in subsequent steps. Switch(config)#hostname 3550A 3550A(config)#interface vlan 1 3550A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.10.17 255.255.255.0

4.

The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. However, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.10.1

5.

We need to set up a VTY password for the 3550 Switch A. 3550A(config)#line vty 0 15 3550A(config-line)#password todd 3550A(config-line)#ctrl+z

6.

Switch to 2621 Router A via the console menu.

7.

For this lab, remove the telnet and enable passwords from the 2621 Router A. 2621A>enable 2621A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 2621A(config)#no enable secret 2621A(config)#no enable password 2621A(config)#line vty 0 4 2621A(config-line)#no password 2621A(config-line)#ctrl+z 2621A#

End with CTRL/Z.

193

194

8.


You can issue the telnet command from any router prompt, as in the following example from 2621 Router B to 2621 Router A: 2621B#telnet 172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.10.2 ... Open Password required, but none set [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

Remember that the VTY ports on a router are configured as login, which means that you must either set the VTY passwords or use the no login command. 9.

On a Cisco router, you do not need to use the telnet command. If you just type in an IP address from a command prompt, the router will assume you want to telnet to the device, as shown below: 2621B#172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.10.2 ... Open Password required, but none set [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

10. It’s time to set VTY passwords on the router I want to telnet into. Here is an example

of what I did: 2621A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 2621A(config)#line vty 0 4 2621A(config-line)#password todd 2621A(config-line)#ctrl+z 2621A#

End with CTRL/Z.

11. Now, let’s try connecting to the router again (from the 2621 Router B console). 2621B#172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.20.2 ... Open User Access Verification Password: 2621A>

12. Remember that the VTY password is the user mode password, not the enable pass-

word. Watch what happens when I try to go into privileged mode after telneting into 2621 Router A: 2621A>en % No password set 2621A>


195

This is a good security feature. You don’t want anyone just telneting onto your device and then being able to just type the enable command to get into privileged mode. You must set your enable password or enable secret password to use telnet to configure remote devices. 13. Now, exit out of 2621 Router A. 2621A>exit [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

14. If you telnet to a router or switch, you can end the connection by typing exit at any

time. However, what if you want to keep your connection to a remote device but still come back to your original router console? To keep the connection, you can press the Ctrl+Shift+6 key combination, release it, and then press X. Here’s an example of connecting to multiple devices from 2621 Router B router console: 2621B#telnet 172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.20.2 ... Open User Access Verification Password: 2621A> [press ctrl+shift+6 then x] 2621B#

In the example above, I telneted to the 2621 Router A, then typed the password to enter user mode. I then pressed Ctrl+Shift+6, then x (this doesn’t’t show on the screen output). Notice the command prompt is now back at the 2621 Router B. 15. You can also telnet into a switch. In the following example, we telnet to switch 3550 A. 2621B#telnet 172.16.10.17 Trying 172.16.10.17 ... Open User Access Verification Password: 3550A>

16. At this point, press Ctrl+Shift+6, then X, which will take you back to 2621 Router B

console. 2621B#

17. To see the connections made from your router to a remote device, use the show sessions

command, as shown below. 2621B#show sessions Conn Host 1 172.16.20.2 * 2 172.16.10.17 2621B#

Address 172.16.20.2 172.16.10.17

Byte 0 0

Idle Conn Name 0 172.16.20.2 0 172.16.10.17

196


18. Notice the asterisk (*) next to connection 2. This means that session 2 was the last

session. You can return to your last session by pressing enter twice. You can also return to any session by typing the number of the connection and pressing enter twice. Here is an example: 2621B#1 [Resuming connection 1 to 172.16.20.2 ... ] [press enter] 2621A> When changing windows from Router to Router do not close the window with the x or the Telnet information will be lost.

19. You can list all active consoles and VTY ports in use on your router with the show users command. Type show users from the 2621 Router A, which the 2621 Router B

had telneted into. 2621A>show users Line User 0 con 0 * 2 vty 0 Interface User 2621A>

Host(s) idle idle Mode

Idle Location 00:00:00 00:25:12 172.16.30.2 Idle Peer Address

In the output, the con represents the local console. In this example, the console is connected to two remote IP addresses, or devices. This output shows that the console is active and that VTY port 0 is being used. The asterisk represents the current terminal session user. 20. You can end Telnet sessions a few different ways. Typing exit or disconnect is probably the easiest and quickest. To end a session from a remote device, use the exit command,

as shown below. 2621A#exit [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

21. To end a session from a local device, use the disconnect command, as shown below. 2621B#show sessions Conn Host * 2 172.16.10.17 2621B#disconnect 2

Address 172.16.10.17

Lab 3.8: Using Secure Shell in Place of Telnet

197

Closing connection to 172.16.10.17 [confirm] [enter] 2621B#

In this example, we used the session number 2 because that was the connection to 3550 Switch A that we wanted to end. As explained earlier, you can use the show sessions command to see the connection number. Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working on.

Lab 3.8: Using Secure Shell in Place of Telnet The last lab had you set your five basic passwords that can be used on a router. In order to gain access to the console (user mode) through the network (called in-band), you set a password on your VTY lines. This allowed Telnet access. However, Telnet is insecure because everything – including passwords – are sent in the clear. However, we can fix that by using Secure Shell (SSH). This is basically the same as using Telnet, but is a secure connection. We will configure our routers to use SSH on the VTY lines.

Network Layout Load Secure Shell Layout.rsm or whatever you previously named it, before going through the following lab.

1.


2.


3.

Click on the file Secure Shell Layout.rsm and click Open.

198


Lab Steps 1.


2.


3.


4.

We need to set a hostname on 2811 Router A. Router#config t Router(config)#hostname2811A 2811A(config)#

5.

The next thing we need to do is set a username and password to use for login when using SSH. 2811A(config)#username todd password lammle

6.

In addition, a domain name must be set. This is a required step when using SSH. However, it is not important what you set it to unless you are using a DNS server for domain lookups on the router. 2811A(config)#ip domain-name lammle.com

7.

Now a key needs to be generated on the router. This will be used to encrypt the password when connecting with SSH to the router. 2811A(config)#crypto key generate rsa The name for the keys will be: 2811A.lammle.com Choose the size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048 for your General Purpose Keys. Choosing a key modulus greater than 512 may take a few minutes. How many bits in the modulus [512]: [press enter] % Generating 512 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK] 2811A(config)#

Now, we need to set our VTY line commands. The vty lines are used to set a Telnet password on the router. If the password is not set, then telnet cannot be used by default. However, we don’t have to use Telnet, we can use SSH instead, or with Telnet. We no longer use the “login” command by itself. We need to use the login local to have the vty lines look for the username and password configured locally on the router. Let’s take a look.

Lab 3.8: Using Secure Shell in Place of Telnet

8.

199

Use the line vty command to enter into line mode. 2811A(config)#line vty 0 ? <1-1180> Last Line number 2811A(config)#line vty 0 1180 2811A(config-line)#login local

9.

After settting the lines to use the username and password configured on the local router, we need to tell the vty lines to use SSH. 2811A(config-line)#transport input ssh

10. The above command allows only SSH session on the vty lines. You can use the follow-

ing command to allow both SSH and Telnet into your router (although, if you can use SSH, Telnet is not recommended). 2811A(config-line)#transport input ssh telnet

Rename and Save Your File: Make sure you save the actual network layout file that you have been working with. You might want to save it to another file name than Secure Shell Layout.rsm. This allows you to start over with a non-configured network if you wish. 1.


200


2.

A dialog box will appear. At the bottom you will see the file name Secure Shell Layout.rsm. Rename the file. In the following example it is renamed My Secure Shell Layout.rsm.

3.

Click the Save button. At this point your network layout has been saved to a new name. You then have the option of reloading Secure Shell Layout.rsm which is nonconfigured.

Lab 3.9: Verifying Secure Shell in Place of Telnet In Lab 3.8 we had configured 2811 Router A to be an SSH server. In this lab, we will use 2811 Router B to connect to 2811 Router A and verify that SSH is working. As we discussed in Lab 3.8, the reason we want to use SSH is because Telnet is insecure. However, we can fix that by using Secure Shell (SSH). This is basically the same as using Telnet, but is a secure connection. Let’s configure verify our SSH server on 2811 Router A.

Lab 3.9: Verifying Secure Shell in Place of Telnet

Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in Lab 3.8.

Lab Steps 1.

On the Network Visualizer screen, double-click 2811 Router B. This will bring up a console screen.

2.

The first thing we need to do is ping 2811 Router A from 2811 Router B to verify network connectivity. 2811B(config)#exit 2811B#ping 172.16.20.1

3.

Now, let’s SSH into 2811 Router A and verify our connection. We need to use the username configured on the 2811 Router A (from Lab 6.8) as our login. We do this with the “-l” option. The name used in the ssh command is case sensitive. 2811B#ssh -l todd 172.16.20.1 Password: [lammle is the password, does not appear when you type] 2811A>

201

202

4.


You can verify your connection on 2811 Router A with the show users command: 2811A>show users Line User * 66 vty 0 Vail Interface User 2811A>

Host(s) idle Mode

Lab 3.10: Creating a Hosts Table on a Router and Resolve Host Names to IP Addresses You can use a hostname to connect to a remote device rather than use an IP address. The device that you are using to make the connection from must be able to translate the hostname to an IP address. This lab will show you how to create a hosts table on your router to resolve host names to IP addresses.

Lab Steps 1.

A host table provides name resolution only on the router on which it was built. The command to build a host table on a router is: ip host name ip_address

2.

Here is an example of configuring a host table on the 2621 Router B with two entries to resolve the names for the 2621 Router A and the 3550 Switch A: 2621B#config t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. 2621B(config)#ip host ? WORD Name of host 2621B(config)#ip host 2621A ? <0-65535> Default telnet port number A.B.C.D Host IP address additional Append addresses 2621B(config)#ip host 2621A 172.16.20.2 ? A.B.C.D Host IP address (maximum of 8)

Lab 3.10: Creating a Hosts Table on a Router and Resolve Host Names to IP Addresses

2621B(config)#ip host 2621A 172.16.20.2 2621B(config)#ip host 3550A 172.16.10.17 2621B(config)#ctrl+z

Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in Lab 3.9. You need a configured network in order to complete this lab.

3.

To see the host table, use the show hosts command, as shown below. 2621B#sh hosts Default domain is not set Name/address lookup uses domain service

203

204


Name servers are 255.255.255.255 Host Flags Age Type 2621A (perm, OK) 0 IP 3550A (perm, OK) 0 IP

Address(es) 172.16.20.2 172.16.10.17

2621B#

In the router output above, you can see the two hostnames and their associated IP addresses. The perm in the Flags column means the entry is manually configured. If it said temp, it would be an entry resolved by DNS. 4.

To verify that the host table resolves names, try typing the hostnames at a router prompt. Remember that if you don’t specify the command, the router assumes you want to telnet. Use the hostnames we just created to telnet into the remote devices and then press Ctrl+Shift+6, then X to return to the main console of the 2621B router. 2621B#2621A Trying 2621A (172.16.20.2)... Open User Access Verification Password: 2621A>(control+shift+6,then x) 2621B# 2621B#3550A Trying 3550A (172.16.40.2)... Open User Access Verification Password: 3550A#

5.

Notice in the entries in the show session output below that the hostname now shows up instead of the IP address because the IP addresses has been resolved. 3550A#sh sess Conn Host 1 2621A * 2 3550A

6.

Address 172.16.20.2 172.16.10.17

Idle Conn Name 0 2621A 0 3550A

You can remove a hostname from the table by using the no ip host command, as in the following example: 3550A>(control+shift+6,then x) 2621B# 2621B#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 2621B(config)#no ip host 2621A

7.

Byte 0 0

End with CTRL/Z.

Now remove the other hostname from the table by using the no ip host command. 2621B(config)#no ip host 3550A

Lab 4.1: Connecting to the 1900 Switch and Setting Passwords

207

Lab 4.1: Connecting to the 1900 Switch and Setting Passwords This lab will have you work with a switch and router, enter an IP address on a router, enter global configuration mode and then set the passwords.

Network Layout Load 1900 Switch Layout.rsm before going through the following lab.

1.


2.


3.

Click on the file 1900 Switch Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab Steps 1.

Double click the 1900 switch to view the the 1900 switch console. OR

208


Go to the 1900 switch via the console menu.

2.

You will then see the following output. Press K to enter the CLI. 1 user(s) now active on Management Console. User Interface Menu [M] Menus [K] Command Line [I] IP Configuration Enter Selection: K CLI session with the switch is open. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. >

3.

The first thing that you should configure on a switch is the passwords. You don’t want unauthorized users connecting to the switch. You can set both the user mode and privileged mode passwords, just like a router. Enter privileged mode by using the enable command and then enter global configuration mode by using the config t command. The switch following output shows an example of how to get into enable mode, and then into global configuration mode. >enable #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#

End with CTRL/Z


4.

209

Once you are in global configuration mode, you can set the user mode and enable mode passwords by using the enable password command. The switches output below shows the configuration of both the user mode and enable mode passwords. (config)#enable password ? level Set exec level password (config)#enable password level ? <1-15> Level number

5.

To enter the user mode password, use level number 1. To enter the enable mode password, use level mode 15. Remember the password must be at least four characters, but not longer then eight characters. The switch output below shows the user mode password being set and denied because it is more than eight characters. (config)#enable password level 1 toddlammle Error: Invalid password length.

Password must be between four and eight characters. 6.

The following output is an example of how to set both the user mode and enable mode passwords on the 1900 switch. (config)#enable password level 1 todd (config)#enable password level 15 todd1 (config)#exit #exit

7.

At this point, you can press enter and test your passwords. You will be prompted for a user mode password after you press K and then an enable mode password after you type enable.

8.

The enable secret password is a more secure password and supersedes the enable password if set. You set this password the same way you set the enable secret password on a router. If you have an enable secret set, you don’t even need to bother setting the enable mode password. #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#enable secret todd2

9.

End with CTRL/Z

You can use show running-config (show run for short) to see the current configuration on the switch. (config)#exit #sh run Building configuration... Current configuration: enable secret 5 $1$FMFQ$wFVYVLYn2aXscfB3J95.w. enable password level 1 "TODD" enable password level 15 "TODD1" [output cut]

Notice the enable mode passwords are not encrypted by default, but the enable secret is. This is the same password configuration technique that you will find on a router. One more thing to notice is that even though I typed the password as lowercase, the running-config shows the passwords as uppercase. It doesn’t matter how you type it in or how it shows in the configuration because the passwords are not case sensitive on the switch.


211

Rename and Save Your File: Make sure you save the actual network layout file that you have been working with. You might want to save it to another file name than 1900 Switch Layout.rsm. This allows you to start over with a non-configured network if you wish. 1.


212


2.

A dialog box will appear. At the bottom you will see the file name 1900 Switch Layout.rsm. Rename the file. In the following example it is renamed to My 1900 Switch Layout.rsm.

3.

Click the Save button. At this point your network layout has been saved to a new name. You then have the option of reloading 1900 Switch Layout.rsm which is non-configured.

Lab 4.2: Configuring the 1900 Switch Use the saved network layout file from Lab 4.1. The file name is 1900 Switch Layout.rsm or whatever you named it when you saved it in Lab 4.1.

Set the Hostname The hostname on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it does not have any function on the network or name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving.

Lab 4.2: Configuring the 1900 Switch

213

Lab Step 1.

The 1900 switch command to set the hostname is exactly like any router: you use the hostname command. Remember, it is one word. The switch output below shows the console screen. Press K to go into user mode, enter the password, use the enable command and enter the enable secret password. From global configuration mode, type the command hostname hostname. 1 user(s) now active on Management Console. User Interface Menu [M] Menus [K] Command Line [I] IP Configuration Enter Selection: K Enter password: **** CLI session with the switch is open. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. >en Enter password: **** #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#hostname 1900A 1900A(config)#exit

End with CTRL/Z

Notice that as soon as I pressed enter, the hostname of the switch appeared. Remember that from global configuration mode, which you enter by using the config t command, it changes the running-config. Any changes you make in this mode take effect immediately.

Configure the IP Address You do not have to set any IP configuration on the switch to make it work. You can just plug in devices and they should start working, just like they would on a hub. The reason you would set the IP address information on the switch is so you can either manage the switch via Telnet or other management software, or you wanted to configure the switch with different VLANs and other network functions. VLANs are discussed in later labs. 2.

By default, no IP address or default-gateway information is set. You would set both the IP address and the default-gateway on a layer-two switch, just like any host. By typing the command show ip (or sh ip), you can see the default IP configuration of the switch. 1900A#show ip IP Address: 0.0.0.0 Subnet Mask: 0.0.0.0 Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0 Management VLAN: 1

214


Domain name: Name server 1: 0.0.0.0 Name server 2: 0.0.0.0 HTTP server : Enabled HTTP port : 80 RIP : Enabled

Notice in the above switch output that no IP address, default-gateway, or other IP parameters are configured. 3.

To set the IP configuration on a 1900 switch, use the ip address command. The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. The switch output below shows an example of how to set the IP address and defaultgateway on a 1900 switch. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 1900A(config)#ip address 172.16.10.16 255.255.255.0 1900A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.10.1 1900A(config)#exit

4.

Once you have your IP information set, use the show ip command to verify your changes. You can view this information with the show running-config command as well. 1900A#show ip IP Address: 172.16.10.16 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 172.16.10.1 Management VLAN: 1 Domain name: Name server 1: 0.0.0.0 Name server 2: 0.0.0.0 HTTP server : Enabled HTTP port : 80 RIP : Enabled 1900A#

To change the IP address and default-gateway on the switch, you can either type in new addresses or remove the IP information with the no ip address and no ip default-gateway commands, at the global configuration prompt.

Configure Interfaces It is important to understand how to access switch ports. The 1900 switch uses the type slot/port command. For example, FastEthernet 0/3 is 10BaseT port 3. Another example


215

would be FastEthernet 0/26 which is the first of the two FastEthernet ports available on the 1900 switch. The 1900 switch type slot/port command can be used with either the interface command or the show command. The interface command allows you to set interface specific configurations. The 1900 switch has only one slot: zero (0). 5.

To configure an interface on a 1900 switch, go to global configuration mode and use the interface command. From global configuration, use the interface command and the type, either Ethernet or FastEthernet interface. I am going to demonstrate the Ethernet interface configuration first. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 1900A(config)#int ethernet ? <0-0> IEEE 802.3

6.

End with CTRL/Z

The previous output asks for the slot. Since the 1900 switch is not modular, there is only one slot. The next output gives us a slash (/) to separate the slot/port configuration. 1900A(config)#int ethernet 0? / 1900A(config)#int ethernet 0/? <1-25> IEEE 802.3

7.

After the 0/configuration command, the above output shows the amount of ports you can configure. The output below shows the completed command. 1900A(config)#int ethernet 0/1

8.

Once you are in interface configuration, the prompt changes to (config-if). After you are at the interface prompt, you can use the help commands to see the available commands. 1900A(config-if)#? Interface configuration commands: cdp Cdp interface subcommands description Interface specific description duplex Configure duplex operation exit Exit from interface configuration mode help Description of the interactive help system no Negate a command or set its defaults port Perform switch port configuration shutdown Shutdown the selected interface spantree Spanning tree subsystem vlan-membership VLAN membership configuration 1900A(config-if)#?exit

216


You can switch between interface configuration by using the int e 0/# command at any time from global configuration mode. 9.

The switch output below shows the configuration of a FastEthernet port on the 1900 switch. Notice that the command is interface fastethernet, but the slot is still 0. The only ports available are 26 and 27. 1900A(config)#int fastethernet ? <0-0> FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 1900A(config)#int fastethernet 0/? <26-27> FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 1900A(config)#int fastethernet 0/26 1900A(config-if)#int fast 0/27 1900A(config-if)#ctl+z

10. After you make any changes you want to the interfaces, you can view the different interfaces with the show interface command. The switch output below shows the command

used to view a 10BaseT interface and the command to view a fastethernet interface. 1900A#show int e0/1 ethernet 0/1 is Suspended-no-linkbeat Hardware is Built-in 10Base-T Address is 0030.80CC.7D01 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbits 802.1d STP State: Forwarding Forward Transitions: 1 [output cut] 1900A#show int f0/26 Fastethernet 0/26 is Suspended-no-linkbeat Hardware is Built-in 100Base-TX Address is 0030.80CC.7D1A MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbits 802.1d STP State: Blocking Forward Transitions: 0 [output cut]

Configure Interface Descriptions You can administratively set a name for each interface on the 1900 switch. Like the hostname, the descriptions are only locally significant. For the 1900 series switch, use the description command. You cannot use spaces with the description command, but you can use underlines if you need to. 11. To set the descriptions, you need to be in interface configuration mode. From interface configuration mode, use the description command to describe each interface. You can


217

make the descriptions more then one word, but you can’t use spaces. You will have to use the underline as shown below: 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 1900A(config)#int e0/1 1900A(config-if)#description Finance_VLAN 1900A(config-if)#int f0/26 1900A(config-if)#description trunk_to_Building_4 1900A(config-if)#ctl+z

In the configuration example above, we set the description on both a 10Mbps port and a 100Mbps port.

View Interface Descriptions Once you have configured the descriptions you want on each interface, you can then view the descriptions with either the show interface command, or show running-config command. 12. View the configuration of the Ethernet interface 0/1 by using the show interface ethernet 0/1 command. 1900A#show int e0/1 Ethernet 0/1 is Enabled Hardware is Built-in 10Base-T Address is 0030.80CC.7D01 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbits 802.1d STP State: Forwarding Forward Transitions: Port monitoring: Disabled Unknown unicast flooding: Enabled Unregistered multicast flooding: Enabled Description: Finance_VLAN Duplex setting: Half duplex Back pressure: Disabled

1

13. Use the show running-config command to view the interface configurations as well. 1900A#show run Building configuration... Current configuration: ! hostname "1900A" ! ip address 172.16.10.16 255.255.255.0

Lab 4.3: Configuring the 1900 Switch Port Duplex The 1900 switch has only 12 or 24 10BaseT ports and comes with one or two FastEthernet ports. You can only set the duplex on the 1900 switch, as the ports are all fixed speeds.

Network Layout Use the saved network that you have been working with.

Lab 4.3: Configuring the 1900 Switch Port Duplex

219

Lab Steps 1.

Use the duplex command in interface configuration. In the switch output below, notice the options available on the FastEthernet ports. 1900A(config)#int f0/26 1900A(config-if)#duplex ? auto Enable auto duplex configuration full Force full duplex operation full-flow-control Force full duplex with flow control half Force half duplex operation 1900A(config-if)#duplex full 1900A(config-if)#ctrl+z

The following Table shows the different duplex options available on the 1900 switches. The 1900 FastEthernet ports default to auto duplex, which means they will try and auto detect the duplex the other end is running. TA b L E :

Duplex Options

Parameter

Definition

Auto

Set the port into auto-negotiation mode. Default for all 100BaseTX ports.

Full

Forces the 10 or 100Mbps ports into full duplex mode.

Full-flow-control

Works only with 100BaseTX ports, uses flow control so buffers won’t overflow.

Half

Default for 10BaseT ports, forces the ports to work only in half duplex mode.

2.

Once you have the duplex set, you can use the show interface command to view the duplex configuration. 1900A#show int f0/26 Fastethernet 0/26 is enabled Hardware is Built-in 100Base-TX Address is 0030.80CC.7D1A MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbits 802.1d STP State: Blocking Forward Transitions: Port monitoring: Disabled Unknown unicast flooding: Enabled Unregistered multicast flooding: Enabled

In the output above, the duplex setting shows full duplex.

Lab 4.4: Verifying 1900 Switch IP Connectivity It is important to test the switch IP configuration. You can use the ping program, and you can telnet into the 1900 switch. However, you cannot telnet from the 1900 switch or use traceroute.

Ping the host from the switch 1900 A. 1900A#ping 172.16.10.9 Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.10.9, time out is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max 0/2/10/ ms

The output on a successful ping: exclamation point (!). If you receive periods (.) instead of exclamation points, that signifies a timeout.

6.

Telnet to the host. 1900A#telnet 172.16.10.9 ^ % Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

In the Telnet example above, notice the error when you try to telnet from the 1900 switch. The command is not available on the 1900 switch. However, you can telnet into a switch at any time, as long as the switch is configured correctly. Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working on.

Lab 4.5: Erasing the 1900 Switch Configuration The switch configuration is stored in NVRAM, just as any router. You cannot view the startup-config, or contents of NVRAM. You can only view the running-config. When you make a change to the switches’ running-config, the switches automatically copy the configuration on the switch to NVRAM. You can delete the configuration in NVRAM on the 1900 switch if you want to start over on the switches’ configuration. To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 1900 switch, use the delete nvram command.

Lab 4.5: Erasing the 1900 Switch Configuration

223

Network Layout Use the saved network that you are using while working with the 1900 switch.

Lab Steps 1.

Type delete ? from a 1900 Switch A, privileged mode prompt. Notice in the switch output below that there are two options: nvram and vtp. We want to delete the contents of NVRAM to the factory default settings. 1900A#delete ? nvram NVRAM configuration vtp Reset VTP configuration to defaults 1900A#delete nvram

This command resets the switch with factory defaults. All system parameters will revert to their default factory settings. All static and dynamic addresses will be removed. 2.

Reset system with factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o? Yes Notice the message received from the switch when the delete nvram command is used. Once you say yes, the configuration is gone.

224

3.


To confirm the configuration is gone, use the show run command. #show run Building configuration... Current configuration: ! interface Ethernet 0/1 ! interface Ethernet 0/2 ! interface Ethernet 0/3 ! interface Ethernet 0/4 [output cut]

Lab 4.6: Utilizing the 2950 and 2960 Switch The 2950 and 2960 switches are very similar and basically support the same commands. The configuration commands between the two switches differ because: NN

NN

The Catalyst 2950 switch runs Cisco IOS 12.1EA software, and the Catalyst 2960 switch runs Cisco IOS 12.2SE software. The hardware is different. In this program the 2950 switch has 12 FastEthnet ports ...

Lab 4.7: Setting Passwords on the 2950/2960 Switch

NN

225

and the 2960 switch has eight FastEthernet ports and one GigabitEthernet port ...

If you use a 2950 switch command, it might not be supported on the 2960 switch. The 2960 switch software handles the incompatible commands by either: NN

accepting it and translating them

NN

rejecting the command In this program the supported commands for these two switches are identical.

Lab 4.7: Setting Passwords on the 2950/2960 Switch This lab will have you work with a 2950/2960 switch. The commands used in configuring the 2950 or 2960 switches are identical in this program. You can choose which device you would like to work with in setting passwords. In this lab, enter the global configuration mode and then set the passwords.

226


Network Layout Load Standard Layout.rsm or whatever you named the file when you saved your work in earlier labs.


227

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click 2950 Switch A or 2960 Switch A to open the console screen.

2.

Press Enter to connect to the console. Switch>

3.

For the user mode of the switch, you can use the help screen just like a router. Switch>? Exec commands: <1-99> access-enable clear connect disable disconnect enable exit help lock login logout name-connection ping rcommand resume show systat telnet terminal traceroute tunnel --More-[output cut]

4.

The first thing that you should configure on a switch are the passwords. You don’t want unauthorized users connecting to the switch. You can set both the user mode and privileged mode passwords, just like a router. Enter the enable mode by using the enable command and then enter global configuration mode by using the config t command. The switch following output shows an example of how to get into enable mode, and then into global configuration mode. Switch>enable Switch#config t

228


Enter configuration commands, one per line. Switch(config)#

5.

End with CTRL/Z

Once you are in global configuration mode, you can set the user mode and enable mode passwords by using the enable password and enable secret command. The switches’ output below shows the configuration of both the user mode and enable mode passwords. Switch(config)#enable password ? 0 Specifies an UNENCRYPTED password will follow 7 Specifies a HIDDEN password will follow LINE The UNENCRYPTED (cleartext) 'enable' password level Set exec level password Switch(config)#enable password todd Switch(config)#enable secret cisco Switch(config) If you set your enable secret, the enable password is superseded and not used, just like in a router.

6.

In addition to the enable password and enable secret, the 2950/2960 switch allows you to set a console and Telnet password as well using the line commands, just like in a router. Switch(config)line ? <0-16> First Line number console Primary terminal line vty Virtual terminal Switch(config)#line console 0 Switch(config-line)#password console Switch(config-line)#login Switch(config-line)#line vty ? % Unrecognized command

7.

Remember that just like in a router, you cannot get help for a line command from within line configuration mode. Type Exit to go back one step. Switch(config-line)#exit Switch(config)#line vty ? <0-15> First Line number Switch(config)#line vty 0 15 Switch(config-line)#password telnet Switch(config-line)#login Switch(config-line)#ctrl+z Switch#

Lab 4.8: Configuring the 2950/2960 Switch

8.

229

You can use show running-config (show run for short) to see the current configuration on the switch. Current configuration : 997 bytes ! version 12.1 no service pad service timestamps debug uptime service timestamps log uptime no service password-encryption ! hostname Switch ! enable secret 5 $1$yNgO$9uU0Z6NG1ib4vlt05bmMW1 enable password todd ! ip subnet-zero ! spanning-tree extend system-id ! ! interface FastEthernet0/1 no ip address ! interface FastEthernet0/2 no ip address --More--

Notice the enable mode password is not encrypted by default, but the enable secret is. This is the same password configuration technique that you will find on a router. Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working on.

Lab 4.8: Configuring the 2950/2960 Switch This lab will have you work with a 2950/2960 switch. The commands used in configuring the 2950 or 2960 switches are identical in this program. Even though the step-by-steps refer to the 2950 switch, you can also configure the 2960 with the same steps.

230



Set the Hostname The hostname on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it does not have any function on the network and is not used for name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving.


231

The 2950/2960 switch command to set the hostname is exactly like any router: you use the hostname command. Remember, it is one word. From global configuration mode, type the command hostname hostname.

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click 2950 Switch A or 2960 Switch A to open the console screen. Switch>enable Enter password: **** Switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. Switch(config)#hostname 2950A 2950A(config)#exit 2950A#

End with CTRL/Z

Notice that as soon as you press enter, the hostname of the switch appears. Remember that from global configuration mode, which you enter by using the config t command, it changes the running-config. Any changes you make in this mode take effect immediately.

Configure the IP Address 2.

By default, no IP address or default-gateway information is set. You would set both the IP address and the default-gateway on a layer-two switch, just like any host. By typing the command show running-config you can see the default IP configuration of the switch. Notice in your switch output that no IP address, default-gateway, or other IP parameters are configured.

3.

To set the IP configuration on a 2950 switch, use the ip address command. However, this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. 2950A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2950A(config)#interface vlan 1 2950A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.40.2 255.255.255.0 2950A(config-if)#exit 2950A(config)#

4.

The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. However, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 2950A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.40.1 2950A(config)#exit 2950A#

232


IP Default-Gateway This is used on devices where no routing information is provided by the router that tells you how to get to the next, directly connected device. It tells us what pathway to use to send packets to the next, directly connected device. In the previous set of commands the ip default-gateway is 172.16.40.1 because that is the IP address of interface f0/0 on Router 2621 A.

To change the IP address and default-gateway on the switch, you can either type in new addresses or remove the IP information with the no ip address and no ip default-gateway commands, at the appropriate configuration prompt.

Configure Interfaces It is important to understand how to access switch ports. The 2950/2960 switch uses the type slot/port command, just like a 2621 router. For example, Fastethernet 0/3 is 10/100BaseT port 3. The 2950/2960 switch type slot/port command can be used with either the interface command or the show command. The interface command allows you to set interface specific configurations. The 2950/2960 switch has only one slot: zero (0), just like the 1900. 5.

To configure an interface on a 2950/2960 switch, go to global configuration mode and use the interface command as shown. Since the 2950/2960 switch is not modular, there is only one slot, which is 0, although it lists 0-2 for some odd reason. However, you can


233

only type in “0” as the slot in this program. Any other slot number will give you an error. The next output gives us a slash (/) to separate the slot/port configuration. 2950A#config t 2950A(config)#interface fastethernet ? <0-2> FastEthernet interface number 2950A(config)#interface fastethernet 0? / 2950A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/? <0-12> FastEthernet interface number

6.

After the 0/configuration command, the above output shows the amount of ports you can configure. The output below shows the completed command. 2950A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/1 2950A(config-if)#

7.

Once you are in interface configuration, the prompt changes to (config-if). You can switch between interface configurations by using the int fa 0/# command at any time from global configuration mode. Now, let’s look at the duplex and speed configurations for a switch port. 2950A(config)#int fa0/1 2950A(config-if)#duplex ? auto Enable AUTO duplex configuration full Force full duplex operation half Force half-duplex operation 2950A(config-if)# 2950A(config-if)#speed ? 10 Force 10 Mbps operation 100 Force 100 Mbps operation auto Enable AUTO speed configuration 2950A(config-if)#

8.

Since the switch port’s duplex and speed settings are already set to auto by default, you do not need to change the switch port settings. It is recommended that you allow the switch port to auto negotiate speed and duplex settings in most situations. In a rare situation, when it is required to manually set the speed and duplex of a switch port, you can use the following configuration. 2950A(config-if)#duplex full Duplex will not be set until speed is set to non-auto value 2950A(config-if)#speed 100

9.

Notice in the above command that to run full duplex, you must set the speed to non-auto value.

234


10. In addition to the duplex and speed commands that can be configured on the switch port, you also can turn on what is called portfast. The portfast command allows

a switch port to come up quickly. Typically a switch port waits 50 seconds for the spanning-tree to go through its “gotta make sure there are no loops!” cycle. However, if you turn portfast on, then you better be sure you do not create a physical loop on the switch network. A spanning-tree loop can severely hurt or bring your network down. Here is how you would enable portfast on a switch port. 2950A(config-if)#spanning-tree ? bpdufilter Don’t send or receive BPDUs on this interface bpduguard Don't accept BPDUs on this interface cost Change an interface's spanning tree port path cost guard Change an interface's spanning tree guard mode link-type Specify a link type for spanning tree protocol use port-priority Change an interface's spanning tree port priority portfast Enable an interface to move directly to forwarding on link up stack-port Enable stack port vlan VLAN Switch Spanning Tree

11. The command above shows the available options for the spanning-tree command. We want to use the portfast command. 2950A(config-if)#spanning-tree portfast %Warning: portfast should only be enabled on ports connected to a single host. Connecting hubs, concentrators, switches, bridges, etc... to this interface when portfast is enabled, can cause temporary bridging loops. Use with CAUTION %Portfast has been configured on FastEthernet0/1 but will only have effect when the interface is in a non-trunking mode. 2950A(config-if)#

12. Notice the message the switch provides when enabling portfast. Although it seems like

the command did not take effect, as long as the port is in access mode (discussed in a minute), the port will now be in portfast mode. 13. After you make any changes you want to the interfaces, you can view the different interfaces with the show interface command. The switch output below shows the

command used to view a 10/100BaseT interface on the 2950/2960 switch. 2950A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2950A#show int f0/1 FastEthernet0/1 is down line protocol is down (notconnect) Hardware is FastEthernet, address is 00b0.9eb1.bcd0 (bia 00b0.9eb1.bcd0) MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255

14. In addition to the show interface command, you can use the show running-config

command to see the interface configuration as well. [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/1 duplex full speed 100 spanning-tree portfast ! interface FastEthernet0/2 [output cut]

15. You can administratively set a name for each interface on the 2950/2960 switch. Like the

hostname, the descriptions are only locally significant. For the 2950/2960 series switch, use the description command. You can use spaces with the description command, but you can use underlines if you need to.

236


To set the descriptions, you need to be in interface configuration mode. From interface configuration mode, use the description command to describe each interface. 2950A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2950A(config)#int fa 0/1 2950A(config-if)#description Sales VLAN 2950A(config-if)#int fa 0/8 2950A(config-if)#description trunk to Building 8 2950A(config-if)#

In the configuration example above, we set the description on both port 1 and 12. 16. Once you have configured the descriptions you want on each interface, you can then view the descriptions with either the show interface command, or show runningconfig command. View the configuration of the Ethernet interface 0/1 by using the show interface ethernet 0/1 command. 2950A#show int fa 0/1 FastEthernet0/1 is down line protocol is down (notconnect) Hardware is FastEthernet, address is 00b0.9eb1.bcd0 (bia 00b0.9eb1.bcd0) Description: Sales VLAN MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) Half-duplex, 100Mb/s, media type is 10/100BaseTX (output cut)

17. Use the show running-config command to view the interface configurations as well. 2950A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/1 description "Sales VLAN" spanning-tree portfast ! [output cut]

Notice in the above switch output that the show int fa0/1 command and the show run command both show the description command set on an interface. Save the network that you have been working on.

Lab 4.9: Verifying 2950/2960 Switch IP Connectivity This lab will have you work with a 2950/2960 switch. The commands used in configuring the 2950 or 2960 switches are identical in this program. Even though the step-by-steps refer to the 2950 switch, you can also configure the 2960 with the same steps. It is important to test the switch IP configuration. You can use the ping program, and you can telnet into the 2950/2960 switch. However, you cannot telnet from the 2950/2960 switch or use traceroute.


1.

In the following example, ping Host E on the network from 2950 Switch A. Notice the output on a successful ping: exclamation point (!). If you receive periods (.) instead of exclamation points, that signifies a timeout.

239

Lab 4.10: Saving and Erasing 2950/2960 Switch Configuration This lab will have you work with a 2950/2960 switch. The commands used in configuring the 2950 or 2960 switches are identical in this program. Even though the step-by-steps refer to the 2950 switch, you can also configure the 2960 with the same steps. The switch configuration is stored in NVRAM, just as any router, and placed in RAM when the switch boots. The file in RAM is called the running-config and the file in NVRAM is called the startup-config. You can view the startup-config, also called the backup configuration, with the show startup-config command.


240


Lab Steps 1.

To save the switch configuration, you type copy running-config startup-config, or copy run start, just like on a router. 2950A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?press Enter Building configuration... [OK] 2950A#

2.

You can delete the configuration in NVRAM on the 2950 switch if you want to start over on the switches’ configuration. To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 2950 switch, use the erase startup-config command as shown. However, you still need to reload the switch to erase the running-config. 2950A#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram file system will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] press Enter [OK] Erase of nvram: complete 2950A#sh start %% Non-volatile configuration memory is not present 2950A#

3.

Again, just because you have erased the contents of NVRAM with the erase startup-config command, you need to remember that the running-config is still in RAM. To erase the running-config you have to reload the switch.

4.

Change to the console screen for 2960 Switch A. Save your configuration. 2960A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?press Enter Building configuration... [OK] 2960A#

5.

To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 2960 switch, use the erase startup-config command as shown. However, you still need to reload the switch to erase the running-config. 2960A#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram file system will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] press Enter [OK]

This is the same password configuration technique that you will find on a router.

Lab 4.13: Configuring the 3550/3560 Switch This lab will have you work with a 3550 switch. The commands used in configuring the 3550 or 3560 switches are identical in this program. Even though the step-by-steps refer to the 3550 switch, you can also configure the 3560 with the same steps. The hostnames on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it does not have any function on the network and is not used for name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving.

Set the Hostname The hostnames on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it does not have any function on the network and is not used for name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving.

246


Lab Steps 1.

The 3550/3560 switch command to set the hostname is exactly like any router: you use the hostname command. Remember, it is one word. From global configuration mode, type the command hostname hostname. Switch>enable Enter password: **** Switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. Switch(config)#hostname 3550A 3550A(config)#exit 3550A#

End with CTRL/Z

Notice that as soon as you press Enter, the hostname of the switch appears. Remember that from global configuration mode, which you enter by using the config t command, it changes the running-config. Any changes you make in this mode take effect immediately.

Configure the IP Address 2.

By default, no IP address or default-gateway information is set. You would set both the IP address and the default-gateway on a layer-two switch, just like any host. By typing the command show running-config you can see the default IP configuration of the switch. Notice in your switch output that no IP address, default-gateway, or other IP parameters are configured.

3.

To set the IP configuration on a 3550/3560 switch, use the ip address command. However, this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. 3550A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 3550A(config)#interface vlan 1 3550A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.10.4 255.255.255.0 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#

4.

The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. However, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 3550A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.10.1 3550A(config)#exit 3550A#


247


Configure Interfaces It is important to understand how to access switch ports. The 3550/3560 uses the type slot/port command, just like a 2621 router and just like the 3550/3560. For example, Fastethernet 0/3 is 10/100BaseT port 3. The 3550/3560 type slot/port command can be used with either the interface command or the show command. The interface command allows you to set interface specific configurations. The 3550/3560 has only one slot: zero (0), just like the 1900. 5.

To configure an interface on a 3550/3560, go to global configuration mode and use the interface command as shown. 3550A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 3550A(config)#interface ? Async Async interface BVI Bridge-Group Virtual Interface Dialer Dialer interface FastEthernet FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 Group-Async Async Group interface Lex Lex interface Loopback Loopback interface Multilink Multilink-group interface Null Null interface Port-channel Ethernet Channel of interfaces Transparent Transparent interface Tunnel Tunnel interface Virtual-Template Virtual Template interface Virtual-TokenRing Virtual TokenRing Vlan Catalyst Vlans fcpa Fiber Channel range interface range command 3550A(config)#interface

6.

The next output asks for the slot. Since the 3550/3560 is not modular, there is only one slot, which is 0, although it lists 0-2 for some odd reason. However, you can only type in “0” as the slot in this program. Any other slot number will give you an error. The next output gives us a slash (/) to separate the slot/port configuration. 3550A(config)#interface fastethernet ? <0-2> FastEthernet interface number

248


3550A(config)#interface fastethernet 0? / 3550A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/? <0-10> FastEthernet interface number

7.

After the 0/configuration command, the above output shows the amount of ports you can configure. The output below shows the completed command. 3550A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/4 3550A(config-if)#

8.

Once you are in interface configuration mode, the prompt changes to (config-if). After you are at the interface prompt, you can use the help commands to see the available commands. 3550A(config-if)#? Interface configuration commands: arp Set arp type (arpa, probe, snap) or timeout bandwidth Set bandwidth informational parameter carrier-delay Specify delay for interface transitions cdp CDP interface subcommands channel-group Etherchannel/port bundling configuration default Set a command to its defaults delay Specify interface throughput delay description Interface specific description dot1x IEEE 802.1X subsystem duplex Configure duplex operation exit Exit from interface configuration mode help Description of the interactive help system hold-queue Set hold queue depth ip Interface Internet Protocol config commands keepalive Enable keepalive load-interval Specify interval for load calculation for an interface logging Configure logging for interface mac-address Manually set interface MAC address mls mls interface commands mvr MVR per port configuration no Negate a command or set its defaults ntp Configure NTP --More--


249

You can switch between interface configurations by using the int fa 0/# command at any time from global configuration mode. 9.

Let’s look at the duplex and speed configurations for a switch port. 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#int fa0/4 3550A(config-if)#duplex ? auto Enable AUTO duplex configuration full Force full duplex operation half Force half-duplex operation 3550A(config-if)# 3550A(config-if)#speed? 10 Force 10 Mbps operation 100 Force 100 Mbps operation auto Enable AUTO speed configuration 3550A(config-if)#

10. Since the switch port’s duplex and speed settings are already set to auto by default, you

do not need to change the switch port settings. It is recommended that you allow the switch port to auto negotiate speed and duplex settings in most situations. In a rare situation, when it is required to manually set the speed and duplex of a switch port, you can use the following configuration. 3550A(config-if)#speed 100 Duplex will not be set until speed is set to non-auto value 3550A(config-if)#duplex full

Full Duplex Transmission of data in two directions simultaneously. It has a higher throughput than half duplex. NN

There are no collision domains with this setting

NN

Both sides must have the capability of being set to full duplex

NN

Both sides of the connection must be configured with full duplex

NN

Each side transmits and receives at full bandwidth in both directions

11. Notice in the above command that to run full duplex, you must set the speed to non-

auto value.

250


12. In addition to the duplex and speed commands that can be configured on the switch port, you also can turn on what is called portfast. The portfast command allows a

switch port to come up quickly. Typically a switch port waits 50 seconds for spanningtree to go through its “gotta make sure there are no loops!” cycle. However, if you turn portfast on, then you better be sure you do not create a physical loop on the switch network. A spanning-tree loop can severely hurt or bring your network down. Here is how you would enable portfast on a switch port. 3550A(config-if)#spanning-tree ? bpdufilter Don't send or receive BPDUs on this interface bpduguard Don't accept BPDUs on this interface cost Change an interface's spanning tree port path cost guard Change an interface's spanning tree guard mode link-type Specify a link type for spanning tree protocol use port-priority Change an interface's spanning tree port priority portfast Enable an interface to move directly to forwarding on link up stack-port Enable stack port vlan VLAN Switch Spanning Tree



the command did not take effect, as long as the port is in access mode (discussed in a minute), the port will now be in portfast mode. 15. After you make any changes you want to the interfaces, you can view the different interfaces with the show interface command. The switch output below shows the

command used to view a 10/100BaseT interface on the 3550/3560. 3550A(config-if)#ctrl+z 3550A#show int f0/4 FastEthernet0/4 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 00b0.c5e4.e2cf (bia 00b0.c5e4.e2cf) MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbit, DLY 1000 usec,

251

252


17. You can administratively set a name for each interface on the 3550/3560. Like the

hostname, the descriptions are only locally significant. For the 3550 series switch, use the description command. You can use spaces with the description command, but you can use underlines if you need to. To set the descriptions, you need to be in interface configuration mode. From interface configuration mode, use the description command to describe each interface. 3550A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 3550A(config)#int fa 0/4 3550A(config-if)#description Marketing VLAN 3550A(config-if)#int fa 0/10 3550A(config-if)#description trunk to Building 3 3550A(config-if)#

In the configuration example above, we set the description on both port 4 and 10. 18. Once you have configured the descriptions you want on each interface, you can then view the descriptions with either the show interface command, or show runningconfig command. View the configuration of the Ethernet interface 0/4 by using the show interface ethernet 0/4 command. 3550A(config-if)#ctrl+z 3550A#show int fa 0/4 FastEthernet0/4 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 00b0.1a09.2097 (bia 00b0.1a09.2097) Description: Marketing VLAN (output cut)

19. Use the show running-config command to view the interface configurations as well. 3550A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/4 description "Marketing VLAN" duplex full speed 100 spanning-tree portfast ! [output cut]

Lab 4.14: Verifying 3550/3660 Switch IP Connectivity

253

Notice in the above switch output that the show int fa0/4 command and the show run command both show the description command set on an interface. Save the network that you have been working on.

Lab 4.14: Verifying 3550/3660 Switch IP Connectivity This lab will have you work with a 3550/3560 switch. The commands used in configuring the 3550 or 3560 switches are identical in this program. Even though the step-by-steps refer to the 3550 switch, you can also configure the 3560 with the same steps. It is important to test the switch IP configuration. You can use the ping program, and you can telnet into the 3550/3560 switch. However, you cannot telnet from the 3550/3560 switch or use traceroute.


1.

In the following example, ping Host B on the network from the 3550 Switch A . Notice the output on a successful ping: exclamation point (!). If you receive periods (.) instead of exclamation points, that signifies a timeout.

254



2.

In the following example, ping Host C on the network from the 3560 A switch.


Lab 4.15: Saving and Erasing the 3550/3560 Switch Configuration

255

Lab 4.15: Saving and Erasing the 3550/3560 Switch Configuration This lab will have you work with a 3550/3560 switch. The commands used in configuring the 3550 or 3560 switches are identical in this program. Even though the step-by-steps refer to the 3550 switch, you can also configure the 3560 with the same steps. The switch configuration is stored in NVRAM, just as any router and placed in RAM when the switch boots. The file in RAM is called the running-config and the file in NVRAM is called the startup-config. You can view the startup-config, also called the backup configuration, with the show startup-config command.


256

1.


To save the switch configuration, you type copy running-config startup-config, or copy run start, just like on a router. 3550A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?press Enter Building configuration... [OK] 3550A#

2.

You can delete the configuration in NVRAM on the 3550 switch if you want to start over on the switches’ configuration. To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 3550 switch, use the erase startup-config command as shown. However, you still need to reload the switch to erase the running-config. 3550A#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] press Enter [OK] Erase of nvram: complete 3550A#sh start %% Non-volatile configuration memory is not present 3550A#

3.

Again, just because you have erased the contents of NVRAM with the erase startupconfig command, you need to remember that the running-config is still in RAM. To erase the running-config you have to reload the switch.

4.

Change to the console screen for 3560 Switch A. Save your configuration. 3560A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?press Enter Building configuration... [OK] 3560A#

5.

To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 3560 switch, use the erase startup-config command as shown. However, you still need to reload the switch to erase the runningconfig. 3560A#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] press Enter [OK] Erase of nvram: complete 3560A#sh start %% Non-volatile configuration memory is not present 3560A#

NAT

Lab 5: Introduction to Network Address Translation (NAT) What Does NAT Do? NAT splits networks into two distinct sections, outside and inside. Inside addresses are usually assigned PRIVATE IP addresses and the outside addresses are assigned PUBLIC IP addresses on the Internet.

When Do You Use NAT? NAT, at times, decreases the overwhelming amount of Public IP addresses required in your networking environment. And NAT comes in really handy when two companies that have duplicate internal addressing schemes merge. NAT is also great to have around when an organization changes its Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the networking manager doesn’t want to hassle with changing the internal address scheme. Here’s a list of situations when it’s best to have NAT on your side: NN

You need to connect to the Internet and your hosts do not have globally unique IP addresses.

NN

You change to a new ISP that requires you to renumber your network.

NN

You require two Intranets with duplicate addresses to merge.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Implementing NAT Advantages

Disadvantages

Conserves legally registered addresses

Translation introduces switching path delays

Reduces address overlap occurrence

Loss of end-to-end IP traceability

Increases flexibility when connecting to Internet

Certain applications will not function with NAT enabled

Eliminates address renumbering as network changes

Auto-Summary The process of taking subnets like 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 and summarizing them down to their base network class. In the case of 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 the networks are summarized to their Class C base network address of 192.168.10.0/24. Summarization occurs at classful network boundaries. Classful network boundaries occur when one class of networks meet a different class of networks, thus a network boundary. If subnet 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 were crossing over to another router connected by the 10.1.1.0/24 network, the classful network boundary is between the 10.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.10.0/24 networks.

No Auto-Summary The process of taking the subnets like 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 and not summarizing them down to their base network class. In the case of 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29, the networks are never summarized to their Class C base network address of 192.168.10./24 when classful network boundaries are encountered.

Switch Security

Lab 6.1: Configuring Switch Security In this lab you will configure a switch to mitigate security attacks. In some networks it may be desirable to implement security on switchports in order to restrict which computers can access the network. This is accomplished through switchport security commands. Through such commands an administrator can control how many computers can be connected to a given port as well as specify, based on MAC addresses, which computers are allowed to connect to the port. The lab topology consists of 2960 Switch A with a connection to Hosts A and B. Host

First you will enable switchport security on interface FastEthernetst 0/1 on 2960 Switch A. This and the subsequent security commands are entered in the interface configuration mode. Switch>enable Switch#config t Switch#hostname 2960A 2960A(config)#int fa0/1 2960A(config-if)#switchport mode access 2960A(config-if)#switchport port-security

2.

Configure 2960 Switch A to limit the devices that can connect through interface FastEthernet 0/1. You will set the maximum number of devices to 1. 2960A(config-if)#switchport port-security maximum 1

3.

Set the MAC address that can be learned through the interface. 2960A(config-if)#switchport port-security mac-address b21f.135f.d81e

Click on the file Switchport Security Layout.rsm and click Open. You should see the following non-configured network:

4.

The switch response when port security is violated depends on which response state has been configured. These states are as follows: Protect Once the maximum number of secure MAC addresses is reached on a port additional addresses will not be learned and packets from unknown addresses are dropped. No notification is sent. Restrict Once the maximum number of secure MAC addresses is reached on a port additional addresses will not be learned and packets from unknown addresses are dropped. An SNMP trap is sent, a syslog message is logged and the violation counter increases. Shutdown Once the maximum number of secure MAC addresses is reached on a port the receipt of a packet from an unknown address causes the port to be “error disabled” and the port LED turns off. An SNMP trap is sent, a syslog message is logged and the violation counter increases.

270

Switch Security

Shutdown VLAN This mode is implemented on a per VLAN basis. Once the maximum number of secure MAC addresses is reached on a port for a designated VLAN, the receipt of a packet from an unknown address causes the port to be “error disabled” for that VLAN. 5.

Configure FastEthernet 0/1 to be shut down upon a violation. 2960A(config-if)#switchport port-security violation shutdown

6.

Configure interface FastEthernet 0/2 to only allow one MAC address to be learned through the interface but will use the “sticky” method for that MAC address to be learned and placed in the configuration. 2960A(config-if)#int fa0/2 2960A(config-if)#switchport 2960A(config-if)#switchport 2960A(config-if)#switchport 2960A(config-if)#switchport

Go back to the enable mode. 2960A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2960A#

Rename and Save Your File: Make sure you save the actual network layout file that you have been working with. You might want to save it to another file name than Switchport Security Layout.rsm. This allows you to start over with your initial, non-configured network if you wish. There are two ways you can save a network layout. The first way is by clicking on the Diskette button on the button bar, at the top of the Network Visualizer screen. You can also click File on the menu and choose Save from the drop down menu.

Lab 6.2: Verifying Switch Security Now that the switch configuration is complete, you will verify that the switch security configuration effectively prevents the attachment of an unauthorized host machine.

272

Switch Security

Network Layout Load Switchport Security Layout.rsm or whatever you named the file when you saved your work. You need a configured network in order to complete this lab.

1.


2.


3.

Click on the file Switchport Security Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab Steps 1.

Issue the show mac-address-table command from 2960 Switch A. This should confirm that MAC addresses of host A and host B are in the MAC address table. The addresses are listed below.


Host

MAC Address

IP Address

Host A

8e36.6b21.6e25

10.1.1.1

Host B

1175.3e8b.d4f0

10.1.1.2

Host C

2c9b.00e9.9c64

10.1.1.3

273

If the addresses are not in the table, issue a ping from host A to host B (ping 10.1.1.2 from host A). 2960A#show mac-address-table Mac Address Table ------------------------------------------Vlan Mac Address Type Ports ---- ---------------------1 8e36.6b21.6e25 STATIC Fa0/1 1 1175.3e8b.d4f0 STATIC Fa0/2

2.

Next issue the show run command. You should see the following output. 2960A#show run interface FastEthernet0/1 switchport mode access switchport port-security switchport port-security maximum 1 switchport port-security mac-address b21f.135f.d81e interface FastEthernet0/2 switchport mode access switchport port-security switchport port-security maximum 1 switchport port-security mac-address sticky switchport port-security mac-address sticky 1175.3e8b.d4f0

3.

Next you will confirm the effectiveness of these commands by disconnecting host B from FastEthernet port 0/2 on 2960 Switch A and connecting host C to FastEthernet port 0/2. a.

Right-click on host B and click on the Ethernet 0/0 interface.

b.

When asked if you want to remove this connection, click Yes.

c.

Right-mouse click host C, click Ethernet port 0/0, then move the mouse pointer over to 2960 Switch A.

Switch Security

274

d.

Right-mouse click 2960 Switch A and then click FastEthernet 0/2 to complete the connection.

Once you have done so return to the switch command prompt. You should see the following messages displayed: 2960A# %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to down %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to down %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to up %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to up Press the Enter key if necessary.

4.

Bring up the DOS screen for host A. Ping from host A to host C (ping 10.1.1.3). Once you have done so return to the switch command prompt. You should see the following messages displayed: %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to administratively down %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to down


275

This confirms that the interface was disabled when it saw a new MAC address connected to the port.

Individual Labs (Comprehensive) Please Note: Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Introduction to Individual Labs We offer CCNA labs that are comprehensive and self-contained. They stand on their own, and do not require configurations from prior labs. These labs are typically longer than the accumulative labs because you are starting with a non-configured network each time you bring up an Individual lab. You are totally configuring the network for each lab, from beginning to finish. We provide step-by-step instructions for these labs.

Grading When you have finished with each Individual lab ... You can check your work by clicking the Grade Me button in the upper right hand corner of the Network Visualizer screen.

Individual Lab: Cisco 2811 Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) Cisco® SDM is a Web-based device-management tool for routers. The SDM is a graphical user interface that allows to quickly configure the 2811 router. No interaction with the command line interface (CLI) is required. Please Note: Before you can use SDM, you must first manually configure the 2811 router with the CLI.

In this lab we will: N

Clock Rate It is important to understand clocking on and interface. On a real connection, clocking issues will typically cause data loss and or packet errors. You will also see framing slips on a carrier circuit when there is a clocking issue. You do not have to set a clock rate if the DCE side of your connection is a 2811 router. The clock rate for the serial interface is set by default to 2000000. However, on the 2621 router you still need to explicitly set the clock rate. In our lab the DCE side of the connection is interface serial 0/1/1 and serial 0/0/1.

mand and then enter global configuration mode by using the config t command. The switch following output shows an example of how to get into enable mode, and then into global configuration mode. >enable #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#

4.

End with CTRL/Z

Once you are in global configuration mode, you can set the user mode and enable mode passwords by using the enable password command. The switches output below shows the configuration of both the user mode and enable mode passwords. (config)#enable password ? level Set exec level password (config)#enable password level ? <1-15> Level number

5.

To enter the user mode password, use level number 1. To enter the enable mode password, use level mode 15. Remember the password must be at least four characters, but no longer than eight characters. The switch output below shows the user mode password being set and denied because it is more than eight characters. (config)#enable password level 1 toddlammle Error: Invalid password length.

Password must be between four and eight characters. 6.

The following output is an example of how to set both the user mode and enable mode passwords on 1900 Switch A. (config)#enable password level 1 todd (config)#enable password level 15 todd1 (config)#exit #exit

7.

At this point, you can press enter and test your passwords. You will be prompted for a user mode password after you press K and then an enable mode password after you type enable.

The enable secret password is a more secure password and supersedes the enable password if set. You set this password the same way you set the enable secret password on a router. If you have an enable secret set, you don’t even need to bother setting the enable mode password. #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#enable secret todd2

Notice the enable mode passwords are not encrypted by default, but the enable secret is. This is the same password configuration technique that you will find on a router. One more thing to notice is that even though I typed the password as lowercase, the running-config shows the passwords as uppercase. It does not matter how you type it in or how it shows in the configuration because the passwords are not case sensitive on the switch.

308

Switch Security

Setting the Hostname The hostname on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it doesn’t have any function on the network or name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving. 10. Enter a hostname for 1900 Switch A. #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#hostname 1900A 1900A(config)#exit

End with CTRL/Z

Notice that as soon as I pressed enter, the hostname of the switch appeared. Remember that from global configuration mode, which you enter by using the config t command, it changes the running-config. Any changes you make in this mode take effect immediately.

Configuring an IP Address You do not have to set any IP configuration on the switch to make it work. You can just plug in devices and they should start working, just like they would on a hub. The reason you would set the IP address information on the switch is so you can either manage the switch via Telnet or other management software, or you wanted to configure the switch with different VLANs and other network functions. VLANs are discussed in later labs. 11. By default, no IP address or default-gateway information is set. You would set both the

IP address and the default-gateway on a layer-two switch, just like any host. By typing the command show ip, you can see the default IP configuration of the switch. 1900A#show ip IP Address: 0.0.0.0 Subnet Mask: 0.0.0.0 Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0 Management VLAN: 1 Domain name: Name server 1: 0.0.0.0 Name server 2: 0.0.0.0 HTTP server : Enabled HTTP port : 80 RIP : Enabled

Notice in the above switch output that no IP address, default-gateway, or other IP parameters are configured.


309

12. To set the IP configuration on a 1900 Switch A, use the ip address command. The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. The

switch output below shows an example of how to set the IP address and default-gateway on a 1900 Switch A. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 1900A(config)#ip address 172.16.10.16 255.255.255.0 1900A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.10.1 1900A(config)#exit

13. Once you have your IP information set, use the show ip command to verify your changes. You can view this information with the show running-config command as well. 1900A#show ip IP Address: 172.16.10.16 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 172.16.10.1 Management VLAN: 1 Domain name: Name server 1: 0.0.0.0 Name server 2: 0.0.0.0 HTTP server : Enabled HTTP port : 80 RIP : Enabled 1900A#

To change the IP address and default-gateway on the switch, you can either type in new addresses or remove the IP information with the no ip address and no ip default-gateway commands, at the global configuration prompt.

Configuring Interfaces It is important to understand how to access switch ports. 1900 Switch A uses the type slot/port command. For example, FastEthernet 0/3 is 10BaseT port 3. Another example would be FastEthernet 0/26 which is the first of the two Fast Ethernet ports available on 1900 Switch A. 1900 Switch A type slot/port command can be used with either the interface command or the show command. The interface command allows you to set interface specific configurations. 1900 Switch A has only one slot: zero (0). 14. To configure an interface on a 1900 Switch A, go to global configuration mode and use the interface command. From global configuration, use the interface command

310

Switch Security

and the type, either Ethernet or FastEthernet interface. I am going to demonstrate the ethernet interface configuration first. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 1900A(config)#int ethernet ? <0-0> IEEE 802.3

End with CTRL/Z

15. The previous output asks for the slot. Since 1900 Switch A is not modular, there is only

one slot. The next output gives us a slash (/) to separate the slot/port configuration. 1900A(config)#int ethernet 0? / 1900A(config)#int ethernet 0/? <1-25> IEEE 802.3

16. After the 0/configuration command, the above output shows the amount of ports you

can configure. The output below shows the completed command. 1900A(config)#int ethernet 0/1

17. Once you are in interface configuration, the prompt changes to (config-if). After you

are at the interface prompt, you can use the help commands to see the available commands. 1900A(config-if)#? Interface configuration commands: cdp Cdp interface subcommands description Interface specific description duplex Configure duplex operation exit Exit from interface configuration mode help Description of the interactive help system no Negate a command or set its defaults port Perform switch port configuration shutdown Shutdown the selected interface spantree Spanning tree subsystem vlan-membership VLAN membership configuration 1900A(config-if)#?exit

You can switch between interface configuration by using the int e 0/# command at any time from global configuration mode. 18. The switch output below shows the configuration of a FastEthernet port on 1900 Switch A. Notice that the command is interface fastethernet, but the slot is still 0.

The only ports available are 26 and 27. 1900A(config)#int fastethernet ? <0-0> FastEthernet IEEE 802.3


311

1900A(config)#int fastethernet 0/? <26-27> FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 1900A(config)#int fastethernet 0/26 1900A(config-if)#int fast 0/27 1900A(config-if)#ctrl+z

19. After you make any changes you want to the interfaces, you can view the different interfaces with the show interface command. The switch output below shows the command

used to view a 10BaseT interface and the command to view a FastEthernet interface. 1900A#show int e0/1 ethernet 0/1 is Suspended-no-linkbeat Hardware is Built-in 10Base-T Address is 0030.80CC.7D01 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbits 802.1d STP State: Forwarding Forward Transitions: [output cut] 1900A#show int f0/26 FastEthernet 0/26 is Enabled Hardware is Built-in 100Base-TX Address is 00b0.8f36.3eac MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbits 802.1d STP State: Forwarding Forward Transitions: [output cut]

Configuring Interface Descriptions You can administratively set a name for each interface on 1900 Switch A. Like the hostname, the descriptions are only locally significant. For a 1900 series switch, use the description> command. You cannot use spaces with the description command, but you can use underlines if you need to. 20. To set the descriptions, you need to be in interface configuration mode. From interface configuration mode, use the description command to describe each interface. You can

make the descriptions more than one word, but you can’t use spaces. You’ll have to use the underline as shown below: 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 1900A(config)#int e0/1 1900A(config-if)#description Finance_VLAN 1900A(config-if)#int f0/26 1900A(config-if)#description trunk_to_Building_4 1900A(config-if)#

Switch Security

312

In the configuration example above, we set the description on both a 10Mbps port and a 100Mbps port.

Configuring Port Duplex 1900 Switch A has only 12 or 24 10BaseT ports and comes with one or two FastEthernet ports. You can only set the duplex on 1900 Switch A, as the ports are all fixed speeds. 21. Use the duplex command in interface configuration. In the switch output below, notice the options available on the FastEthernet ports. 1900A(config-if)#duplex ? auto Enable auto duplex configuration full Force full duplex operation full-flow-control Force full duplex with flow control half Force half duplex operation 1900A(config-if)#duplex full 1900A(config-if)#ctrl+z

The following table shows the different duplex options available on 1900 Switch A. 1900 Switch A FastEthernet ports default to auto duplex, which means they will try and auto-detect the duplex the other end is running. Duplex Options Parameter

Definition

Auto

Set the port into auto-negotiation mode. Default for all 100BaseTX ports.

Full

Forces the 10 or 100Mbps ports into full duplex mode.

Full-flow-control

Works only with 100BaseTX ports; uses flow control so buffers won’t overflow.

Half

Default for 10BaseT ports; forces the ports to work only in half duplex mode.

22. Once you have the duplex set, you can use the show interface command to view the

duplex configuration. 1900A#show int f0/26 FastEthernet 0/26 is Enabled Hardware is Built-in 100Base-TX Address is 00b0.8f36.3eac MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbits

23. In the output above, the duplex setting shows full duplex.

Grade Me Before you move on and erase your configurations, you should click the Grade Me button to check out your work.

Erasing the Configuration The switch configuration is stored in NVRAM, just as any router. You cannot view the startup-config, or contents of NVRAM. You can only view the running-config. When you make a change to the switches’ running-config, the switches automatically copy the configuration on the switch to NVRAM. You can delete the configuration in NVRAM on 1900 Switch A if you want to start over on the switches’ configuration. To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 1900 Switch A, use the delete nvram command. 24. Type delete ? from a 1900 A privileged mode prompt. Notice in the switch output

below that there are two options: nvram and vtp. We want to delete the contents of NVRAM to the factory default settings. 1900A#delete ? nvram NVRAM configuration vtp Reset VTP configuration to defaults 1900A#delete nvram

This command resets the switch with factory defaults. All system parameters will revert to their default factory settings. All static and dynamic addresses will be removed. Reset system with factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o?

Yes

Notice the message received from the switch when the delete nvram command is used. Once you say yes, the configuration is gone. 25. To confirm the configuration is gone, use the show run command. #show run Building configuration... Current configuration: !

Press enter to connect to the console Switch>

3.

For the user mode of the switch, you can use the help screen just like a router. Switch>? Exec commands: <1-99> access-enable clear connect disable disconnect enable exit help lock login logout name-connection ping rcommand resume show systat telnet terminal traceroute tunnel --More-[output cut]

The first thing that you should configure on a switch is the passwords. You don’t want unauthorized users connecting to the switch. You can set both the user mode and privileged mode passwords, just like a router. Enter the enable mode by using the enable command and then enter global configuration mode by using the config t command.


317

The switch following output shows an example of how to get into enable mode, and then into global configuration mode. Switch>enable Switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. Switch(config)#

5.

End with CTRL/Z

Once you are in global configuration mode, you can set the user mode and enable mode passwords by using the enable password and enable secret command. The switches output below shows the configuration of both the user mode and enable mode passwords. Switch(config)#enable password ? 0 Specifies an UNENCRYPTED password will follow 7 Specifies a HIDDEN password will follow LINE The UNENCRYPTED (cleartext) 'enable' password level Set exec level password Switch(config)#enable password todd Switch(config)#enable secret cisco Switch(config)

6.

Remember, if you set your enable secret, the enable password is superseded and not used, just like in a router.

7.

In addition to the enable password and enable secret, 2950 allows you to set a console and Telnet password as well using the line commands, just like in a router. Switch(config)line ? <0-16> First Line number console Primary terminal line vty Virtual terminal Switch(config)#line console 0 Switch(config-line)#password console Switch(config-line)#login Switch(config-line)#line vty ? % Unrecognized command

8.

Remember that just like in a router, you cannot get help for a line command from within line configuration mode. Type exit to go back one step. Switch(config-line)#exit Switch(config)#line vty ? <0-15> First Line number

318

You can use show running-config (show run for short) to see the current configuration on the switch. Current configuration : 997 bytes ! version 12.1 no service pad service timestamps debug uptime service timestamps log uptime no service password-encryption ! hostname Switch ! enable secret 5 $1$yNgO$9uU0Z6NG1ib4vlt05bmMW1 enable password todd ! ip subnet-zero ! spanning-tree extend system-id ! ! interface FastEthernet0/1 no ip address ! interface FastEthernet0/2 no ip address --More--

Notice the enable mode password is not encrypted by default, but the enable secret is. This is the same password configuration technique that you will find on a router.

Setting the Hostname The hostname on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it doesn’t have any function on the network and is not used for name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving.


319

10. The 2950 switch command to set the hostname is exactly like any router: you use the hostname command. Remember, it is one word. From global configuration mode, type the command hostname hostname. Switch>enable Enter password: **** Switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. Switch(config)#hostname 2950A 2950A(config)#exit 2950A#

End with CTRL/Z

Notice that as soon as you press Enter, the hostname of the switch appears. Remember that from global configuration mode, which you enter by using the config t command, it changes the running-config. Any changes you make in this mode take effect immediately.

Configuring IP Address Information You do not have to set any IP configuration on the switch to make it work. You can just plug in devices and they should start working, just like they would on a hub. The reason you would set the IP address information on the switch is so you can either manage the switch via Telnet or other management software, or you wanted to configure the switch with different VLANs and other network functions. VLANs are discussed later labs. 11. By default, no IP address or default-gateway information is set. You would set both the

IP address and the default-gateway on a layer-two switch, just like any host. By typing the command show running-config you can see the default IP configuration of the switch. Notice in your switch output that no IP address, default-gateway, or other IP parameters are configured. 12. To set the IP configuration on a 2950 switch, use the ip address command. However,

this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. 2950A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2950A(config)#int vlan 1 2950A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.40.2 255.255.255.0 2950A(config-if)#exit 2950A(config)#

13. Before we perform step 14, we need to configure 2621 Router A. Router>enable Router#config t

320

Switch Security

Router(config)#hostname 2621A 2621A(config-line)#int fa0/0 2621A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.40.1 255.255.255.0 2621A(config-if)#no shutdown 2621A(config-if)#exit

14. The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command.

However, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 2950A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.40.1 2950A(config)#exit 2950A#

IP Default-Gateway This is used on devices where no routing information is provided by the router that tells you how to get to the next, directly connected device. It tells us what pathway to use to send packets to the next, directly connected device. In the previous set of commands the ip default-gateway is 172.16.40.1 because that is the IP address of interface f0/0 on 2621 Router A.



321

Configuring Interfaces It is important to understand how to access switch ports. The 2960 switch uses the type slot/port command, just like a 2600 router and just like 2950 switch. For example, FastEthernet 0/3 is 10/100BaseT port 3. The 2960 switch type slot/port command can be used with either the interface command or the show command. The interface command allows you to set interface specific configurations. The 2960 switch has only one slot: zero (0), just like the 1900. 15. To configure an interface on a 2950 switch, go to global configuration mode and use the interface command as shown. 2950A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2950A(config)#interface ? Async Async interface BVI Bridge-Group Virtual Interface Dialer Dialer interface FastEthernet FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 Group-Async Async Group interface Lex Lex interface Loopback Loopback interface Multilink Multilink-group interface Null Null interface Port-channel Ethernet Channel of interfaces Transparent Transparent interface Tunnel Tunnel interface Virtual-Template Virtual Template interface Virtual-TokenRing Virtual TokenRing Vlan Catalyst Vlans fcpa Fiber Channel range interface range command 2950A(config)#interface

16. The next output asks for the slot. Since a 2950 switch is not modular, there is only one

slot, which is 0, although it lists 0-2 for some odd reason. However, you can only type in “0” as the slot in this program. Any other slot number will give you an error. The next output gives us a slash (/) to separate the slot/port configuration. 2950A(config)#int fastethernet ? <0-2> FastEthernet interface number 2950A(config)#int fastethernet 0? / 2950A(config)#int fastethernet 0/? <0-12> FastEthernet interface number

17. After the 0/ configuration command, the above output shows the amount of ports you

can configure. The output below shows the completed command. 2950A(config)#int fa0/9 2950A(config-if)#

18. Once you are in interface configuration, the prompt changes to (config-if). After you are

at the interface prompt, you can use the help commands to see the available commands. 2950A(config-if)#? Interface configuration commands: arp Set arp type (arpa, probe, snap) or timeout bandwidth Set bandwidth informational parameter carrier-delay Specify delay for interface transitions cdp CDP interface subcommands channel-group Etherchannel/port bundling configuration default Set a command to its defaults delay Specify interface throughput delay description Interface specific description dot1x IEEE 802.1X subsystem duplex Configure duplex operation exit Exit from interface configuration mode help Description of the interactive help system hold-queue Set hold queue depth ip Interface Internet Protocol config commands keepalive Enable keepalive load-interval Specify interval for load calculation for an interface logging Configure logging for interface mac-address Manually set interface MAC address mls mls interface commands mvr MVR per port configuration no Negate a command or set its defaults ntp Configure NTP --More--

You can switch between interface configurations by using the int fa 0/# command at any time from global configuration mode. 19. There are a couple of interface commands that you can configure on the switch. The commands we are interested in are the duplex command and the portfast command. 2950A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 2950A(config)#int fa0/9 2950A(config-if)#duplex ?

End with CNTL/Z.


323

auto Enable AUTO duplex configuration full Force full duplex operation half Force half-duplex operation 2950A(config-if)#

20. Since the switch ports are set to auto by default, you can change each of the switch

ports to always be in full-duplex mode for better performance. This is recommended. 2950A(config-if)#duplex full Duplex will not be set until speed is set to non-auto value 2950A(config-if)#speed 100


auto value. 22. In addition to the duplex and speed commands that can be configured on the switch

port, you also can turn on what is called portfast. The portfast command allows a switch port to come up quickly. Typically a switch port waits 50 seconds for spanningtree to go through its “gotta make sure there are no loops!” cycle. However, if you turn portfast on, then you better be sure you do not create a physical loop on the switch network. A spanning-tree loop can severely hurt or bring your network down. Here is how you would enable portfast on a switch port. 2950A(config-if)#spanning-tree ? bpdufilter Do not send or receive BPDUs on this interface bpduguard Do not accept BPDUs on this interface cost Change an interface's spanning tree port path cost guard Change an interface's spanning tree guard mode link-type Specify a link type for spanning tree protocol use port-priority Change an interface's spanning tree port priority portfast Enable an interface to move directly to forwarding on link up stack-port Enable stack port vlan VLAN Switch Spanning Tree

the command didn’t take effect, as long as the port is in access mode (discussed in a minute), the port will now be in portfast mode. 25. After you make any changes you want to the interfaces, you can view the different interfaces with the show interface command. The switch output below shows the

command used to view a 10/100BaseT interface on a 2950 switch. 2950A#ctrl+z 2950A#show int f0/9 FastEthernet0/9 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 00b0.1a09.2097 (bia 00b0.1a09.2097) MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbit, DLY 1000 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) Full duplex, 100Mb/s input flow-control is off, output flow-control is off ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00 Last input never, output 1w6d, output hang never Last clearing of "show interface" counters never Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0 Queueing strategy: fifo Output queue :0/40 (size/max) 5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 1 packets input, 64 bytes, 0 no buffer Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored 0 watchdog, 0 multicast, 0 pause input 0 input packets with dribble condition detected 1 packets output, 64 bytes, 0 underruns 0 output errors, 0 collisions, 3 interface resets 0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred 0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier, 0 PAUSE output 0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out 2950A#

27. You can administratively set a name for each interface on a 2950 switch. Like the host-

name, the descriptions are only locally significant. For a 2950 series switch, use the description command. You can use spaces with the description command, but you

can use underlines if you need to. To set the descriptions, you need to be in interface configuration mode. From interface configuration mode, use the description command to describe each interface. 2950A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2950A(config)#int fa 0/9 2950A(config-if)#description Finance VLAN 2950A(config-if)#int fa 0/12 2950A(config-if)#description trunk to Building 4 2950A(config-if)#

In the configuration example above, we set the description on both port 9 and 12. 28. Once you have configured the descriptions you want on each interface, you can then view the descriptions with either the show interface command, or show runningconfig command. View the configuration of the Ethernet interface 0/9 by using the show interface ethernet 0/9 command. 2950A#show int fa 0/9 FastEthernet0/9 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 00b0.1a09.2097 (bia 00b0.1a09.2097) Description: Finance VLAN (output cut)

Notice in the above switch output that the show int fa0/9 command and the show run command both show the description command set on an interface.

Verifying the IP Connectivity It is important to test the switch IP configuration. You can use the ping program, and you can telnet into the 2950 switch. However, you cannot telnet from the 2950 switch or use traceroute. At this point we will configure Host E so that we can perform step 33. 30. Right-mouse click Host E. 31. Click on the Configs button.

32. On Host E configure: NN

33. In the following example, ping Host E from 2950 Switch A. Notice the output on a

successful ping: exclamation point (!). If you receive periods (.) instead of exclamation points, that signifies a timeout. 2950A#ping 172.16.40.3 Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.40.3, time out is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max 0/2/10/ ms


Saving and Erasing Your Configurations The switch configuration is stored in NVRAM, just as any router, and placed in RAM when the switch boots. The file in RAM is called the running-config and the file in NVRAM is called the startup-config. You can view the startup-config, also called the backup configuration, with the show startup-config command. 34. To save the switch configuration, you type copy running-config startup-config, or

copy run start, just like on a router. 2950A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?press Enter Building configuration... [OK] 2950A#

35. To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 2950 switch, use the erase startup-config command as shown. However, you still need to reload the switch to erase the running-config. 2950A#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] press Enter [OK] Erase of nvram: complete 2950A#showstart %% Non-volatile configuration memory is not present 2950A#

Current configuration : 918 bytes ! version 12.2 no service pad service timestamps debug uptime service timestamps log uptime no service password-encryption ! hostname switch ! enable secret 5 $1$u76B$IOFVJ7VxfVXYVpGDrFTcI0 enable password todd ! no aaa new-model system mtu routing 1500 no ip subnet-zero [output cut]

Notice the enable mode password is not encrypted by default, but the enable secret is. This is the same password configuration technique that you will find on a router.

Setting the Hostname The hostname on a switch, as well as on a router, is only locally significant. This means that it does not have any function on the network and is not used for name resolution whatsoever. However, it is helpful to set a hostname on a switch so that you can identify the switch when connecting to it. A good rule of thumb is to name the switch after the location it is serving. 8.

The 2960 switch command to set the hostname is exactly like any router: you use the hostname command. From global configuration mode, type the command hostname hostname. Switch>enable Enter password: **** Switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. Switch(config)#hostname 2960A 2960A(config)#exit 2960A#

End with CTRL/Z

Any changes you make in this mode take effect immediately.

Configuring IP Address Information You do not have to set any IP configuration on the switch to make it work. You can just plug in devices and they should start working, just like they would on a hub. The reason you would set the IP address information on the switch is so you can either manage the switch via Telnet or other management software, or you wanted to configure the switch with different VLANs and other network functions. VLANs are discussed in later labs. 9.

To set the IP configuration on a 2960 switch, use the ip address command. However, this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. 2960A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2960A(config)#int vlan1 2960A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.50.2 255.255.255.0 2960A(config-if)#exit 2960A(config)#

10. Before we perform step 11, we need to configure router 2621 B. Router>enable Router#config t

Router(config)#hostname 2621B 2621B(config-line)#int fa0/0 2621B(config-if)#ip address 172.16.50.1 255.255.255.0 2621B(config-if)#no shutdown 2621B(config-if)#exit

11. The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. How-

ever, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 2960A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.50.1 2960A(config)#exit 2960A#


Configuring Interfaces It is important to understand how to access switch ports. The 2960 switch uses the type slot/port command, just like a 2621 router and just like the 2960 switch. For example, FastEthernet 0/3 is 10/100BaseT port 3. The 2960 switch type slot/port command can be used with either the interface command or the show command. The interface command allows you to set interface specific configurations. The 2960 switch has only one slot: zero (0), just like the 1900. 12. To configure an interface on a 2960 switch, go to global configuration mode and use the interface command as shown. Since the 2960 switch is not modular, there is only

one slot, which is 0, although it lists 0-2 for some odd reason. However, you can only type in “0” as the slot in this program. Any other slot number will give you an error. The next output gives us a slash (/) to separate the slot/port configuration. 2960A#config t 2960A(config)#interface fastethernet ? <0-2> FastEthernet interface number 2960A(config)#interface fastethernet 0? / 2960A(config)#interface fastethernet 0/? <0-12> FastEthernet interface number

13. After the 0/configuration command, the above output shows the amount of ports you

can configure. The output below shows the completed command. 2960A(config)#int fa0/1 2960A(config-if)#


333

14. Once you are in interface configuration, the prompt changes to (config-if). You can switch between interface configurations by using the int fa 0/# command at any time

from global configuration mode. There are a couple of interface commands that you can configure on the switch. The commands we are interested in are the duplex command and the portfast command. 2960A(config)#int fa0/1 2960A(config-if)#duplex ? auto Enable AUTO duplex configuration full Force full duplex operation half Force half-duplex operation 2960A(config-if)#

15. Since the switch ports are set to “auto” by default, you can change each of the switch

ports to always be in full-duplex mode for better performance. This is recommended. 2960A(config-if)#duplex full Duplex will not be set until speed is set to non-auto value 2960A(config-if)#speed 100


auto value. 17. In addition to the duplex commands that can be configured on the switch ports, you

also can turn on what is called portfast. This enables a switch port to come up quickly and not to wait the typical 50 seconds for spanning-tree to go through its “I gotta make sure there are no loops!” cycle. However, if you turn portfast on, then you better be sure you do not create a physical loop on the switch network or it will bring your network down. You are basically telling the switch to not check for loops using these ports. Here is how you would enable portfast on a switch port. 2960A(config-if)#spanning-tree ? bpdufilter Do not send or receive BPDUs on this interface bpduguard Do not accept BPDUs on this interface cost Change an interface's spanning tree port path cost guard Change an interface's spanning tree guard mode link-type Specify a link type for spanning tree protocol use port-priority Change an interface's spanning tree port priority portfast Enable an interface to move directly to forwarding on link up stack-port Enable stack port vlan VLAN Switch Spanning Tree

18. The command above shows the available options for the spanning-tree command. We want to use the portfast command. 2960A(config-if)#spanning-tree portfast %Warning: portfast should only be enabled on ports connected to a single

334

Switch Security

host. Connecting hubs, concentrators, switches, bridges, etc... to this interface when portfast is enabled, can cause temporary bridging loops. Use with CAUTION %Portfast has been configured on FastEthernet0/1 but will only have effect when the interface is in a non-trunking mode. 2960A(config-if)#


the command didn’t take effect, as long as the port is in access mode (discussed in a minute), the port will now be in portfast mode. 20. After you make any changes you want to the interfaces, you can view the different interfaces with the show interface command. The switch output below shows the

command used to view a 10/100BaseT interface on the 2960 switch. 2960A#show int f0/1 FastEthernet0/1 is down line protocol is down (notconnect) Hardware is FastEthernet, address is 00b0.9eb1.bcd0 (bia 00b0.9eb1.bcd0) MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) Full-duplex, 100Mb/s, media type is 10/100BaseTX input flow-control is off, output flow-control is unsupported ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00 Last input 00:00:02, output 00:00:01, output hang never Last clearing of "show interface" counters never Input queue: 0/75/0/0 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0 Queueing strategy: fifo Output queue 0/40, 0 drops; input queue 0/75, 0 drops 5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 1000 bits/sec, 1 packets/sec 1097702 packets input, 71821315 bytes, 0 no buffer Received 488076 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles 0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored 0 watchdog, 3752639 multicast, 0 pause input 0 input packets with dribble condition detected 1590235 packets output, 290473092 bytes, 0 underruns 0 output errors, 0 collisions, 2 interface resets 0 babbles, 0 late collision, 0 deferred 0 lost carrier, 0 no carrier 0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out

command to see the interface configuration as well. [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/1 spanning-tree portfast ! interface FastEthernet0/2 [output cut]

22. You can administratively set a name for each interface on the 2960 switch. Like the

hostname, the descriptions are only locally significant. For the 2960 series switch, use the description command. You can use spaces with the description command, but you can use underlines if you need to. To set the descriptions, you need to be in interface configuration mode. From interface configuration mode, use the description command to describe each interface. 2960A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z 2960A(config)#int fa 0/1 2960A(config-if)#description Sales VLAN 2960A(config-if)#int fa 0/8 2960A(config-if)#description trunk to Building 8 2960A(config-if)#

In the configuration example above, we set the description on both port 1 and 12. 23. Once you have configured the descriptions you want on each interface, you can then view the descriptions with either the show interface command, or show runningconfig command. View the configuration of the Ethernet interface 0/1 by using the show interface ethernet 0/1 command. 2960A#show int fa0/1 FastEthernet0/1 is down line protocol is down (notconnect) Hardware is FastEthernet, address is 00b0.9eb1.bcd0 (bia 00b0.9eb1.bcd0) Description: Sales VLAN MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, reliability 255/255, txload 1/255, rxload 1/255 Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set Keepalive set (10 sec) Half-duplex, 100Mb/s, media type is 10/100BaseTX (output cut)

24. Use the show running-config command to view the interface configurations as well. 2960A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/1 description "Sales VLAN" spanning-tree portfast ! [output cut]

Notice in the above switch output that the show int fa0/1 command and the show run command both show the description command set on an interface.

Verifying the IP Connectivity It is important to test the switch IP configuration. You can use the ping program, and you can telnet into the 2960 switch. However, you cannot telnet from the 2960 switch or use traceroute. 25. Right-mouse click Host F. 26. Click on the Configs button.

27. On Host F configure: NN

28. In the following example, ping Host F on the network from the 2960 A switch. 2960A#ping 172.16.50.3 Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.50.3, time out is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max 0/2/10/ ms


Saving and Erasing Your Configuration The switch configuration is stored in NVRAM, just as any router and placed in RAM when the switch boots. The file in RAM is called the running-config and the file in NVRAM is called the startup-config. You can view the startup-config, also called the backup configuration, with the show startup-config command. 29. To save the switch configuration, you type copy running-config startup-config, or

copy run start , just like on a router. 2960A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?press Enter Building configuration... [OK] 2960A#

30. To delete the contents of NVRAM on a 2960 switch, use the erase startup-config command as shown. However, you still need to reload the switch to erase the runningconfig. 2960A#erase startup-config Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all files! Continue? [confirm] press Enter [OK] Erase of nvram: complete

Individual Lab: Static Routing This lab will have you build the routing tables by hand, which means you will create static routing tables on each router. This will allow you to route throughout the entire network. At this point you can only route to directly connected networks of each router. Remember that the routing will not work until all static routes are configured on all routers. Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Static Route Is a manually hard coded routing statement that creates a route in the routing table of a router. The static route specifies how the router will get to a certain network by using a certain path. Static routing refers to the manual method used to set up routing. This method has the advantage of being simple to create and predictable in its functionality. It is easy to manage in small networks but in larger ones it is difficult to set up and manage all possible static routes. Static routes are not dynamically responsive to topology changes in a network.

Lab Steps Copy and Paste Script Steps 1-3 are necessary in order to perform this lab. If you do not want to manually complete these steps and want to accelerate steps 1 - 3, you can copy and paste the following script into the console for each router.

Clock Rate You do not have to set a clock rate if the DCE side of your connection is a 2811 router. The clock rate for the serial interface is set by default to 2000000. However, on the 2621 router you still need to explicitly set the clock rate. In our lab the DCE side of the connection is interface serial 0/1/1 and serial 0/0/1.

Individual Lab: Telnet Telnet is a virtual terminal protocol that is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. Telnet allows you to make connections to remote devices and gather information and run programs. After your routers and switches are configured, you can use the Telnet program to configure and check your routers and switches instead of needing to use a console cable. You use the Telnet program by typing telnet from any command prompt (DOS or Cisco). VTY passwords must be set on the routers for this to work. You cannot use CDP to gather information about routers and switches that are not directly connected to your device. However, you can use the Telnet application to connect to your neighbor devices and then run CDP on those remote devices to gather CDP information about remote devices. In this lab we will telnet from 2621 Router B into 2621 Router A and 3550 Switch A. Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Go to the console for 3550 Switch A and perform the following commands: switch>en switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z switch(config)#

6.

To set the IP configuration on a 3550 switch, use the ip address command. However, this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. Let’s also set the hostname so that we can more clearly identify this device when we telnet into it in subsequent steps. switch(config)#hostname 3550A 3550A(config)#int vlan 1 3550A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.10.17 255.255.255.0

7.

The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. However, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.10.1

8.

We need to set up a VTY password for the 3550 Switch A. 3550A(config)#line vty 0 15 3550A(config-line)#password todd 3550A(config-line)#login 3550A(config-line)#ctrl+z 3550A#copy run start

9.

Switch to the 2621 B router via the console menu.


353

10. You can issue the telnet command from any router prompt, as in the following example

from 2621 Router B to 2621 Router A: 2621B#telnet 172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.10.2 ... Open Password required, but none set [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

Remember that the VTY ports on a router are configured as login, which means that you must either set the VTY passwords or use the no login command. 11. On a Cisco router, you do not need to use the telnet command. If you just type in an

IP address from a command prompt, the router will assume you want to telnet to the device, as shown below: 2621B#172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.10.2 ... Open Password required, but none set [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

12. It’s time to set VTY passwords on the router I want to telnet into. Here is an example

of what was done: 2621A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 2621A(config)#line vty 0 4 2621A(config-line)#password todd 2621A(config-line)#login 2621A(config-line)#ctrl+z 2621A#

End with CTRL/Z.

13. Now, let’s try connecting to the router again (from the 2621 Router B console). 2621B#172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.20.2 ... Open User Access Verification Password: 2621A>

14. Remember that the VTY password is the user mode password, not the enable pass-

word. Watch what happens when I try to go into privileged mode after telneting into 2621 Router A: 2621A>en % No password set 2621A>

354

Switch Security

This is a good security feature. You don’t want anyone just telneting onto your device and then being able to just type the enable command to get into privileged mode. You must set your enable password or enable secret password to use telnet to configure remote devices. 15. Now, exit out of 2621 Router A. 2621A>exit [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

16. If you telnet to a router or switch, you can end the connection by typing Exit at any

time. However, what if you want to keep your connection to a remote device but still come back to your original router console? To keep the connection, you can press the Ctrl+Shift+6 key combination, release it, and then press X. Here’s an example of connecting to multiple devices from the 2621 Router B console: 2621B#telnet 172.16.20.2 Trying 172.16.20.2 ... Open User Access Verification Password: 2621A> [press ctrl+shift+6 then x] 2621B#

In the example above, I telneted to 2621 Router A, then typed the password to enter user mode. I then pressed Ctrl+Shift+6, then x (this does not show on the screen output). Notice the command prompt is now back at the 2621 B router. 17. You can also telnet into a switch. In the following example, we telnet to 3550 Switch A. 2621B#telnet 172.16.10.17 Trying 172.16.10.17 ... Open User Access Verification Password: 3550A>

18. At this point, press Ctrl+Shift+6, then X, which will take you back to the 2621 B

router console. 2621B#

19. To see the connections made from your router to a remote device, use the show sessions command, as shown below. 2621B#show sessions Conn Host

Address

Idle Conn Name


1 172.16.20.2 * 2 172.16.10.17 2621B#

0 0

355

0 172.16.20.2 0 172.16.10.17

20. Notice the asterisk (*) next to connection 2. This means that session 2 was the last ses-

sion. You can return to your last session by pressing enter twice. You can also return to any session by typing the number of the connection and pressing enter twice. Here is an example: 2621B#1 [Resuming connection 1 to 172.16.20.2 ... ] [press enter] 2621A> When changing windows from Router to Router do not close the window with the “x” or the telnet information will be lost.

21. You can list all active consoles and VTY ports in use on your router with the show users command. Type show users from 2621 Router A, which 2621 Router B had

telneted into. 2621A>show users Line User 0 con 0 * 2 vty 0 Interface User 2621A>

Host(s) idle idle Mode

Idle Location 00:00:00 00:25:12 172.16.30.2 Idle Peer Address

In the command’s output, the con represents the local console. In this example, the console is connected to two remote IP addresses, or devices. This output shows that the console is active and that VTY port 0 is being used. The asterisk represents the current terminal session user. 22. You can end Telnet sessions a few different ways. Typing exit or disconnect is probably the easiest and quickest. To end a session from a remote device, use the exit command,

as shown below. 2621A#exit [Connection to 172.16.20.2 closed by foreign host] 2621B#

23. To end a session from a local device, use the disconnect command, as shown below. 2621B#show sessions Conn Host

0 172.16.10.17

In this example, we used the session number 2 because that was the connection to the 3550 Switch A that we wanted to end. As explained earlier, you can use the show sessions command to see the connection number.

Gather CDP information on your router by getting CDP Timers and Holdtime Information. Use the show cdp command which shows information about two CDP global parameters that can be configured on Cisco devices. The output on a router looks like this: 2811A#show cdp Global CDP information: Sending CDP packets every 60 seconds Sending a holdtime value of 180 seconds Sending CDPv2 advertisements is enabled 2811A#

CDP timer is how often CDP packets are transmitted to all active interfaces. CDP holdtime is the amount of time that the device will hold packets received from neighbor devices.

Both the Cisco routers and the Cisco switches use the same parameters. 5.

Use the global commands cdp holdtime and cdp timer to configure the CDP holdtime and timer on a router. 2811A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. 2811A(config)#cdp ? advertise-v2 CDP sends version-2 advertisements holdtime Specify the holdtime (in sec) to be sent in packets log Log messages generated by CDP run Enable CDP source-interface Insert the interface's IP in all CDP packets timer Specify rate (in sec) at which CDP packets are sent 2811A(config)#cdp timer 90 2811A(config)#cdp holdtime 240 2811A(config)#ctrl+z

6.

You can turn off CDP completely on the router with the no cdp run command from global configuration mode of a router. Enable CDP with the cdp run command. 2811A(config)#no cdp run 2811 (config)#cdp run 2811A(config)#ctrl+z

7.

To turn off or on CDP on a router interface, use the no cdp enable and cdp enable commands. Enable CDP on the interface with the cdp enable command. 2811A(config)#int fa0/0 2811A(config-if)#no cdp enable 2811A(config-if)#cdp enable 2811A(config)#ctrl+z

8.

The show cdp neighbor command (show cdp nei for short) shows information about directly connected devices. It is important to remember that CDP packets are not passed through a Cisco switch, and you only see what is directly attached. On a router connected to a switch, you will not see the other devices connected to the switch. The following output shows the show cdp neighbor command used on the 2811 A router. 2811A#show cdp nei Device ID Local Intrfce 2621B Ser 0/0/1 Ser 0/0

Another command that provides neighbor information is the show cdp neighbor detail command (show cdp nei de for short), which also can be run on the router or switch. This command shows detailed information about each device connected to the device, as in the router output below. 2811A#show cdp neighbor detail ------------------------Device ID: 2621B Entry address(es): IP Address: 172.16.30.2 Platform: cisco 2621, Capabilities: Router Interface: Serial0/0, Port ID (outgoing port): Serial0/0/1 Holdtime : 146 sec Version : Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) C2600 Software (C2600-BIN-M), Version 12.2(13)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) TAC Support: http://www.cisco.com/tac Copyright (c) 1986-2003 by Cisco Systems, Inc.

Individual Lab: Working with a Router Interface Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

By default, interfaces are shut down and turned off. That means that packets cannot travel through the device to another connected device. You can turn an interface on with the no shutdown command. You can turn off or shut down an interface with the shutdown command. You can check the status of an interface by using the show interface command. If an interface is shut down, it will display administratively down when using the show interface command, and the show running-config command will also show the interface as shut down.

Notice that in order to enable an interface, we use the no shut command. Remember to look at the command show interface fa0/0, for example, which will show you if it administratively shut down or not. Show running-config will also show you if the interface is shut down. 9.

If you want to add a second subnet address to an interface, then you must use the secondary command.


367

Subnet Address Is a range of logical addresses within the address space of an organization. This allows you to take one network and turn it into many more, smaller networks. This allows for less network traffic on each network and faster and more efficient networks. See the section Subnetting Basics in the Sybex CCNA Study Guide, 7th edition.

If you type another IP address and press Enter, it will replace the existing IP address and mask. To add a secondary IP address, use the secondary command. 2621A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.20.2 255.255.255.0 secondary 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z

10. You can verify both addresses are configured on the interface with the show runningconfig command (show run for short). 2621A#show run Building configuration...

Serial Interface To configure a serial interface, there are a couple of specifics that need to be discussed. Typically, when in production, the interface will be attached to a CSU/DSU type of device that provides clocking for the line. However, if you have a back-to-back configuration used in a lab environment, for example, one end must provide clocking. This would be the DCE end of the cable. Cisco routers, by default, are all DTE devices, and you must tell an interface to provide clocking if it is to act as a DCE device. If you don’t completely understand this right now, don’t worry, you will. Just run through the commands below for now and I promise it will become clear to you later.

368

Switch Security

Serial Interface You have a connection between two devices where data is sent between the two one bit at a time. This occurs in only one direction at a time.


369

11. You can configure a DCE serial interface with the clock rate command. Configure an

interface that has a DCE connection. 2621A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#clock rate ? Speed (bits per second) 1200 2400 4800 9600 19200 38400 56000 64000 72000 125000 148000 250000 500000 800000 1000000 1300000 2000000 4000000 <300-4000000> Choose clockrate from list above 2621A(config-if)#clock rate 64000

It does not hurt anything to try and put a clock rate on an interface. Notice that the clock rate command is in bits per second. If you are not on an interface that is set to DCE than you will receive an error when trying this command.

370

Switch Security

Finding DCE DCE (data communications equipment) is the side of the connection that provides the clocking. Unless it is a 2811 router, you would enter the clock rate on the DCE side of a connection between routers. If you cannot remember what side of your connection is DCE, you can use the show controllers command. Here is an example: 2811#show controllers s0/1/1 Interface Serial0/1/1 Hardware is GT96K DCE V.35, clock rate 2000000 <------------ The DCE connection is associated with s0/1/1 and a clockrate of 2000000 idb at 0x454E69C8, driver data structure at 0x454EE0EC wic_info 0x454EE6E8 Physical Port 0, SCC Num 0 [output cut]

12. The next command you need to understand is the bandwidth command. Every Cisco

router ships with a default serial link bandwidth of a T1, or 1.544Mbps. However, understand that this has nothing to do with how data is transferred over a link. The bandwidth of a serial link is used by routing protocols such as IGRP, EIGRP, and OSPF to calculate the best cost to a remote network. If you are using RIP routing, then the bandwidth setting of a serial link is irrelevant. 2621A(config-if)#bandwidth ? <1-10000000> Bandwidth in kilobits 2621A(config-if)#bandwidth 64

Notice that unlike the clock rate command, the bandwidth command is configured in kilobits.

IP address unique identification number for a device that is located on a network. An IP address is equivalent to the address of your home. The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 172.16.10.6 could be an IP address.

subnet mask when you split up an IP network it is used to determine what section or subnet the IP address of networked device belongs to. An IP address has two parts, the network address and the host address. Let’s examine IP address 172.16.10.6. Assuming this is part of a Class B network, the first two numbers (172.16) represent the Class B network address, and the second two numbers (10.6) identify a particular host on this network. default gateway IP address configured on a networked device that allows that device to communicate outside of its own subnet. A default gateway is usually a layer 3 device like a router. When a network device wants to get to the Internet, it uses a default gateway. A default gateway IP address is equivalent to the on ramp of a highway.

RIP - IPv6 Lab 1.1: Configuring RIP Routing Configuring the routers with static and default routing is interesting to say the least. However, it is not very often that you would use just static and default routing in a network these days. This lab will configure Routing Information Protocol (RIP), one of the first dynamic routing protocols created. It is easy and works pretty well in small to medium size networks.

Dynamic Routing The process of routers in an Intranet or Internet advertising route information automatically between each other. There is typically a common dynamic routing protocol configured on each router. RIP Version 1 and 2, OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP are some examples of dynamic routing protocols. When all routers have received routing updates and have updated routing tables, the network is said to have converged. Convergence means that all routers in the internetwork have the same routing information. At this point, a routed protocol, IP for example, can send user data throughout the internetwork.

Network Layout Load Standard Layout.rsm (or whatever you have named it in ICND1 labs) before going through the following lab.

Click on the file Standard Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab Steps To configure RIP routing, you first have to remove the static and default routes configured on the routers. This is assuming that you completed ICND1 Lab 2.9. Skip to lab step 4 if you did not work with ICND1 Lab 2.9. If do not remove static and default routes, you will have connectivity throughout the network and will not know if you have correctly set up RIP. Removing static and default routes will help you clearly determine when and if you have set up RIP throughout the network. Then use the router rip command to configure RIP. Then tell the routers which networks are advertised with RIP. 1.

From 2621 Router A, delete the default route and then verify the routing table with the show ip route command. Only the directly connected networks should be in the routing table. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.16.20.1 2621A(config)#exit 2621A#show ip route [output cut] Gateway of last resort is not set 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets C 172.16.40.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0

Deleting the static and default routes was the hardest part of configuring RIP routing! Now, configure each router with RIP. 4.

From 2621 Router A, configure RIP routing and tell RIP the network you want to advertise.

Router Rip Command Turns on RIP routing.

Network Command Should be entered for each of the networks that the router is connected to and is a part of the RIP network. In our network we have only one network, network 172.16.0.0.

Stands for Routing Information Protocol. Sends routing-update messages at regular intervals (usually every 30 seconds) and when the network topology changes. Uses a single metric called a hop, which measures the distance between the source and destination. Is limited to a hop count of 15. It has a maximum hop count. This means a network cannot be more than 15 hops from the source to the destination. Otherwise the destination is deemed as unreachable. Has a routing update timer that is used so that on a period basis (usually every 30 seconds) creates an update for each known route. Does not support VLSM.

2621A#config t 2621A(config)#router rip 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z

That’s all there is to it! Dynamic routing is easy on small networks. The important thing to notice here is that the network address is a classful address, which means you use the classful boundary.

Classful Routing Routing protocols (i.e., RIPv1 and IGRP) where subnet masks (routing masks) are not sent in the periodic routing updates. For example, we use the 172.16.0.0 class B network address and subnet that network with 24 bits of subnetting. This means the third octet is used for subnets and the fourth octet is the host addresses for each subnet. RIP is a classful routing protocol, which means that you do not type in any subnet addresses, only the class B address. When using a classful network protocol like RIP, make sure that all networked devices have the same subnet mask.

Lab 1.2: Verifying RIP Routing Configuring RIP is pretty easy, especially in small networks. It is important to be able to verify RIP on Cisco® routers. This lab will provide you with the commands to verify RIP.

Network Layout Load the network layout you have been working with in Lab 1.1.

Lab 1.2: Verifying RIP Routing

389

Lab Steps 1.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621A#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets R 172.16.30.0 [120/1] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:13, Serial0/0 C 172.16.40.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 R 172.16.10.0 [120/1] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:13, Serial0/0 R 172.16.50.0 [120/1] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:13, Serial0/0

Notice the R, which means it is a RIP found route. The C is a directly connected network. You should see two directly connected routes and three RIP routes. 2.

From 2621 Router B, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621B#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 R 172.16.40.0 [120/2] via 172.16.30.1, 00:00:21, Serial0/0 C 172.16.50.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 R 172.16.20.0 [120/1] via 172.16.30.1, 00:00:21, Serial0/0 R 172.16.10.0 [120/1] via 172.16.30.1, 00:00:21, Serial0/0

3.

From the 2811 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2811A#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 R 172.16.40.0 [120/1] via 172.16.20.2, 00:00:27, Serial0/1/1 R 172.16.50.0 [120/1] via 172.16.30.2, 00:00:27, Serial0/0/1 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/1/1 C 172.16.10.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0

4.

From 2621 Router B, use the debug ip rip command to see RIP updates being sent and received on the router. 2621B#debug ip rip RIP protocol debugging is on 2621B# then after a few seconds .... *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.40.0 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.20.0 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1

update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0 in 2 hops in 2 hops update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0

390

ICND2

*Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.40.0 in 3 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.20.0 in 3 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.40.0 in 4 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.20.0 in 4 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.40.0 in 5 hops [output cut]

5.

To turn off debugging, use the no debug ip rip command, or the undebug all command. 2621B#undebug all

6.

To see detailed information about currently configured protocols on a router, use the show ip protocols command. 2621B#show ip protocols Routing Protocol is "rip" Sending updates every 30 seconds, next due in 27 seconds Invalid after 180 seconds, hold down 180, flushed after 240 Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Redistributing: rip Default version control: send version 1, receive any version Interface Send Recv Triggered RIP Key-chain Serial0/0 1 1 2 FastEthernet0/0 1 1 2 Automatic network summarization is in effect Maximum path: 4 Routing for networks: 172.16.0.0 Routing information sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.30.1 120 00:00:03 Distance: 2621B#

Notice the timers. RIP is sent out every 30 seconds by default. The administrative distance for RIP is 120 by default. 7.

Another really good command is the show protocols command, which shows you the routed protocol configuration of each interface. 2621B#show protocols Global values: Internet protocol routing is enabled

Lab 1.2: Verifying RIP Routing

Serial0/1 is administratively down, line protocol is down Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.30.2/24 FastEthernet0/1 is administratively down, line protocol is down FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.50.1/24

Administrative Distance Is a measure of the trustworthiness of the source of the routing information. It is reported as a number between 0 and 255. The smaller the number, the more reliable the protocol. If you have, for example, two protocols IGRP and RIP configured on a router, the IGRP routes will be preferred over the RIP routes. This is because you have an administrative distance of 120 for RIP and 100 for IGRP. Source

Lab 1.3: Configuring IPv6 Static Routing Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is the new addressing scheme that will eventually replace all IPv4 addresses. The IPv4 address scheme is no longer adequate to meet the needs of the growing Internet, and growing Intranets. IPv6 was also designed to increase routing performance and network scalability issues. IPv6 addresses are 128 bits in length. Hexadecimal Groups IPv6 addresses are divided into eight, 16 bit hexadecimal groups. For example, 2001:0000:0000:0008:0000:0000:0000:0012 can be divided into ... 2001:

Lab 1.5: Configuring RIP IPv6 Routing (RIPng) In this lab you will create an IPv6 RIPng network. The network used in this lab has IPv4 addresses already configured on each router interface. This will demonstrate DUAL stacking. You will also be given the commands to verify your RIPng routing configurations.

Network Layout Load IPv6 Layout.rsm or whatever you named the file when you saved your work in Lab 1.3.

Lab Steps 1.

You need to remove the IPv6 routing configured in the previous lab. Perform this for each of the three routers. 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#no ipv6 route 2001::40:0/112 2001::30:2 2811A(config)#no ipv6 route 2001::50:0/112 2001::20:2

Cisco Wide Area Networks (WAN)

Lab 2: Introduction to Cisco Wide Area Network Support The Cisco IOS WAN can support many different WAN protocols that can help you extend your LANs to other LANs at remote sites. Connecting company sites together so information can be exchanged is imperative in this economy. However, it would take a truckload of money to put in your own cable or dedicated connections to network all of your company’s remote locations. Service providers allow you to lease or share connections that the service provider already has installed, which can save money and time. Although this section does not cover every type of Cisco WAN support, it does cover the HDLC, PPP, and Frame Relay. The labs covered in this section are as follows: NN

Lab 2.1: Configuring PPP Encapsulation The High-Level Data-Link Control protocol (HDLC) is a point-to-point protocol used on leased lines. No authentication can be used with HDLC and is the default encapsulation used by Cisco routers over synchronous serial links. Cisco’s HDLC is proprietary—it won’t communicate with any other vendor’s HDLC implementation. If you wanted to either offer authentication on a serial link or to connect from a Cisco router to another vendor router, then we need to configure PPP on the serial interfaces. PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) is a data-link protocol that can be used over asynchronous serial (dial-up) media and uses the LCP (Link Control Protocol) to build and maintain datalink connections. The basic purpose of PPP is to transport layer-3 packets across a data link layer point-to-point link. This lab will have you configure PPP on all four serial networks, and replace HDLC as the encapsulation method on our serial links.

Lab Steps 1.

Connect to 2811 Router B and change the encapsulation on the serial links from HDLC to PPP. 2811A>enable 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#interface serial 0/0/1 2811A(config-if)#encapsulation ppp 2811A(config-if)#interface serial 0/1/1 2811A(config-if)#encapsulation ppp 2811A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2811A#

That is all there is to it. This part is easy. Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working on.

Lab 2.2: Verifying PPP Encapsulation Once you have replaced HDLC as the serial encapsulation method, then you need to verify your network is still working properly. The first command to use is the show ip route command to make sure all your IP routes are still present.

Lab 2.3: Configuring PPP Authentication with CHAP Now that the network should be up and working with PPP, you can use PPP authentication to stop unwanted users from connected to your network. Although, this is typically used with dial-up, it still can be used with serial interfaces. This lab will have you configure PPP authentication on all routers serial interfaces using the CHAP protocol. Challenge Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is used at the initial startup of a link and at periodic checkups on the link to make sure the router is still communicating with the same host. After PPP finishes its initial phase, the local router sends a challenge request to the remote device. The remote device sends a value calculated using a one-way hash function called MD5. The local router checks this hash value to make sure it matches. If the values don’t match, the link is immediately terminated. To configure PPP authentication, first set the hostname of the router if it is not already set (this is not an option!). Then set the username and password for the remote router connecting to your router. For example, if you are connected to 2621 Router A and want to configure authentication, you would set the hostname and then create a username that consists of the router you are going to connect to, in this example, 2811 Router A.

418


This is shown below: Router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. Router(config)#hostname 2621A 2621A(config)#username 2811A password cisco

When using the hostname command, remember that the username is the hostname of the remote router connecting to your router. It is case-sensitive. Also, the password on both routers must be the same. It is a plain-text password and can be seen with a show run command. You must have a username and password configured for each remote system you are going to connect to. The remote routers must also be configured with usernames and passwords. After you set the hostname, usernames, and passwords, choose the authentication as shown in the following example: 2621A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CTRL/Z. 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#ppp authentication chap 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2621A#

Lab 2.5: Understanding Frame Relay Configuration

423

Lab 2.5: Understanding Frame Relay Configuration Frame Relay provides a communications interface between DTE (data terminal equipment) and DCE (data circuit-terminating equipment, such as packet switches) devices. DTE consists of terminals, PCs, routers, and bridges—customer-owned end-node and internetworking devices. DCE consists of carrier-owned internetworking devices. Frame Relay sends packets at the data link layer (layer 2) of the OSI model rather than at the network layer (layer 3). A frame can incorporate packets from different protocols.

Frame Relay Uses Virtual Circuits Frame Relay provides connection-oriented, Data Link layer communication via virtual circuits. These virtual circuits are logical connections created between two DTE’s across a packet-switched network, which is identified by a DLCI, or Data Link Connection Identifier. Also, Frame Relay uses both PVCs (Permanent Virtual Circuits) and SVCs (Switched Virtual Circuits which is a form of dialup), although most Frame Relay networks use only PVCs. This virtual circuit provides the complete path to the destination network prior to the sending of the first frame.

Configuring Frame Relay Encapsulation When configuring Frame Relay on Cisco routers, you need to specify it as an encapsulation on serial interfaces. There are only two encapsulation types: Cisco and IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). The following router output shows the two different encapsulation methods when choosing Frame Relay on your Cisco router: 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#interface s0/0 2621A(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay ? ietf Use RFC1490 encapsulation

The default encapsulation is Cisco unless you manually type in IETF, and Cisco is the type used when connecting two Cisco devices. You’d opt for the IETF-type encapsulation if you needed to connect a Cisco device to a non-Cisco device with Frame Relay.

Frame Relay DLCI Frame Relay virtual circuits (PVCs) are identified by Data Link Connection Identifiers (DLCIs). A Frame Relay service provider, such as the telephone company, typically assigns DLCI values, which are used by Frame Relay to distinguish between different virtual circuits on the network. Because many virtual circuits can be terminated on one multipoint Frame Relay interface, many DLCIs are often affiliated with it.

424


For the IP devices at each end of a virtual circuit to communicate, their IP addresses need to be mapped to DLCIs. This mapping can function as a multipoint device—one that can identify to the Frame Relay network the appropriate destination virtual circuit for each packet that is sent over the single physical interface. The mappings can be done dynamically through IARP (Inverse ARP) or manually through the frame relay map command. DLCI numbers, used to identify a PVC, are typically assigned by the provider and start at 16. Configuring a DLCI number to be applied to an interface is shown below: 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay interface-dlci ? <16-1007> Define a DLCI as part of the current subinterface 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay interface-dlci 16

Frame Relay LMI The Local Management Interface (LMI) was developed in 1990 by Cisco Systems, StrataCom, Northern Telecom, and Digital Equipment Corporation and became known as the Gang-of-Four LMI or Cisco LMI. This gang took the basic Frame Relay protocol from the CCIT and added extensions onto the protocol features that allow internetworking devices to communicate easily with a Frame Relay network. The LMI is a signaling standard between a CPE device (router) and a frame switch. The LMI is responsible for managing and maintaining status between these devices. If you’re not going to use the auto-sense feature of LMI, you’ll need to check with your Frame Relay provider to find out which type to use instead. The default type is Cisco, but you may need to change to ANSI or Q.933A. The three different LMI types are depicted in the router output below. 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ? cisco ansi q933a 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi

You can have multiple virtual circuits on a single serial interface and yet treat each as a separate interface. These are known as subinterfaces. Think of a subinterface as a hardware interface defined by the IOS software. An advantage gained through using subinterfaces is the ability to assign different Network layer characteristics to each subinterface and virtual circuit, such as IP routing on one virtual circuit and IPX on another.

Subinterfaces with Frame Relay You define subinterfaces with the int s0.subinterface number command as shown below. You first set the encapsulation on the serial interface, and then you can define the subinterfaces. 2621A(config-int)#encapsulation frame-relay 2621A(config-int)#exit

Lab 2.6: Configuring Frame Relay Switching

425

2621A(config)#int s0/0.? <0-4294967295> Serial interface number 2621A(config)#int s0/0.16 ? multipoint Treat as a multipoint link point-to-point Treat as a point-to-point link 2621A(config)#int s0/0.16 point-to-point 2621A(config-subif)#

You can define an almost limitless number of subinterfaces on a given physical interface (keeping router memory in mind). In the above example, we chose to use subinterface 16 because that represents the DLCI number assigned to that interface. However, you can choose any number between 0 and 4,292,967,295.

Lab 2.6: Configuring Frame Relay Switching Now that you should have a background on how to configure basic Frame Relay on a Cisco router, this lab will have you configure 2811 Router A as a Frame relay switch. Then you will configure routers 2811 B and 2811 C as remote Frame Relay connections. To perform this lab, you need to delete the configurations on 2811 Router A first since the Frame Relay switching configuration is completely different then what we have now.

Once your router is clear, you can now make them a frame relay switch with the frame-relay switching command. However, that is the easy part. You need to map every DLCI on the switch. Of course the router only has two connections, so it is not too time consuming, but if you had dozens of PVCs, this could take a while. 3.

On the frame relay switch, use the frame relay route command to map each and every DLCI. Here is an example: 2811A(config)#int s0/0/1 2811A(config-if)#frame-relay route 17 int serial 0/1/1 16 2811A(config-if)#exit 2811A(config)#

This command tells the switch that if it receives a frame on serial 0/0/1 with a PVC of 17, then send it out serial 0/1/1 using a PVC of 16. Again, in our network, this configuration will only be two routes so it’s not a big deal. 4.

On 2811 Router A configure the Frame Switching. No IP addresses are assigned to the routes interfaces. Remember, this is a Data Link layer function only, so IP is irrelevant to this configuration. 2811A(config)#frame-relay switching 2811A(config)#int s0/0/1 2811A(config)#encapsulation frame-relay 2811A(config-if)#no shut 2811A(config-if)#frame intf-type dce 2811A(config-if)#frame-relay route 17 int serial 0/1/1 16 2811A(config-if)#int s0/1/1 2811A(config)#encapsulation frame-relay 2811A(config-if)#no shut 2811A(config-if)#frame intf-type dce

Now that the frame-relay switching router is configured, you need to configure the remote routers. Save Your File: Make sure you save the network layout file that you have been working on.

Lab 2.7: Configuring Frame Relay with Subinterfaces This lab will have you bring up the console for Routers 2811 B and 2811 C and configure them for frame relay configuration using subinterfaces. Since the Frame-Relay switches are not using IP addressing, connecting from Routers 2811 B to 2811 C, for example, will use one subnet and appear like a direct connection. Use subnet 172.16.100.0.


430


Lab Steps 1.

Open the console for 2811 Router B and configure the serial 0/0 interface with a Frame Relay subinterface. To perform this, you must remove the IP address from the serial interface. 2811B#config t 2811B(config)#int serial 0/0 2811B(config-if)#no ip address 2811B(config-if)#no shut 2811B(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay 2811B(config-if)#int serial 0/0.16 point-to-point 2811B(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.100.1 255.255.255.0 2811B(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 16 2811B(config-subif)#ctrl+z 2811B#

2.

Open the console for 2811 Router C and configure the serial 0/0 interface with a Frame Relay subinterface. 2811C#config t 2811C(config)#int serial 0/0 2811C(config-if)#no ip address 2811C(config-if)#no shut 2811C(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay 2811C(config-if)#int serial 0/0.17 point-to-point 2811C(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.100.2 255.255.255.0 2811C(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 17 2811C(config-subif)#ctrl+z 2811C#

3.

Verify the Frame Relay connection is up and running. Ping from 2811 Router B to the 2811 Router C. 2811B#ping 172.16.100.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.100.2, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/4 ms 2811B#

Lab 2.8: Verifying Frame Relay

Lab 2.8: Verifying Frame Relay There are several ways to check the status of your interfaces and PVCs once you have Frame Relay encapsulation set up and running.


Lab Steps 1.

Open the console screen for 2621 Router A. I have this in the online docs.

2.

You can use the show frame-relay command with a question mark (?) to get the command options: The show frame-relay lmi command will give you the LMI traffic statistics exchanged between the local router and the Frame Relay switch. 2621A#show frame ip lapf lmi map pvc qos-autosense route rtp

? show frame relay IP statistics show frame relay lapf status/statistics show frame relay lmi statistics Frame-Relay map table show frame relay pvc statistics show frame relay qos-autosense information show frame relay route show frame relay RTP statistics

The router output from the show frame-relay lmi command shows you LMI errors as well as the LMI type. 3.

The show frame pvc command will list all configured PVCs and DLCI numbers. It provides the status of each PVC connection and traffic statistics. It will also give you the number of BECN and FECN packets received on the router. 2621A#show frame pvc PVC Statistics for interface Serial0/0 (Frame Relay DTE) DLCI = 16 , DLCI USAGE = LOCAL , PVC STATUS = ACTIVE , INTERFACE = Serial0/0.16 input pkts 11290 output pkts 11277 in bytes 898590 out bytes 899156 dropped pkts 2 in FECN pkts 0 in BECN pkts 0 out FECN pkts 0 out BECN pkts 0 in DE pkts 0 out DE pkts 0 out bcast pkts 11264 out bcast bytes 898468 pvc create time 13:25:57, last time pvc status changed 13:25:39 2811B#

4.

You can also use the show interface command to check for LMI traffic. The show interface command displays information about the encapsulation as well as layer-2 and layer-3 information. The LMI DLCI is used to define the type of LMI being used. If it is 1023, it is the default LMI type of Cisco. If the LMI DLCI is zero, then it is the ANSI LMI type. 2621A#show int s0/0 Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is PowerQUICC Serial Description: connection to 2811A

Lab Steps 1.

First go to 2621 Router A and ping interface f 0/0 on 2621 Router B. The packet will travel through 2811 Router A on its way to 2621 Router B. 2621A#ping 172.16.30.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.30.2, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!!

2.

We have not done anything yet with EIGRP but we can ping a distant router. If you look back at Lab 5.16 (if you have been sequentially going through the labs), we configured every router with RIP version 2. We need to remove RIP from every router so that we can test the effects of the EIGRP commands. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no router rip 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#no router rip 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#no router rip

3.

EIGRP

Now try pinging 172.16.30.2. 2621A#ping 172.16.30.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.30.2, timeout is 2 seconds: ..... Success rate is 0 percent (0/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 0/0/0 ms 2621A#

Good! We have removed RIP and now no connectivity. We can now proceed with EIGRP. 4.

Configure 2621 Router A to use EIGRP with an AS of 10. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#router eigrp 10 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z 2621A#

It did not work. Click on the Net Detective icon to see if we can find out why the ping was not successful.

You will see the following information: 1.

Network 172.16.0.0 was not found in the routing tables for 2621 Router A.

2.

The desired address falls outside of the protocol networks set up for one or more of the devices.

3.

The desired IP address of 172.16.30.2 was not found. None of the interfaces in the current network have been configured with this IP address.

Net Detective® Unless you are an expert in using routers and switches, you might enter a command, have it not work, and not immediately know what you did wrong. We have tried to bridge that gap with Net Detective®. There are several hundred commands that Net Detective monitors. If something does not work properly, clicking on the Net Detective button may prove be helpful. For example, if you are unsuccessful in trying to ping between 2600 A and 2600 B, Net Detective® will provide a several suggestions as to what is possibly wrong.

We know that Network 172.16.0.0 is in the routing table. Maybe #2 is true. Ok, I found it. The AS number for 2811 Router A is wrong. Change it from 15 to 10. 8.

First, remove router eigrp 15 and put the correct command in. 2811A(config)#no router eigrp % Incomplete command. (We forgot to put 15 in the command. Try again) 2811A(config)#no router eigrp 15 2811A(config)#router eigrp 10 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811A#

Lab 3.2: Verifying EIGRP Routing Since EIGRP has a better administrative distance then IGRP and RIP, all the routing tables should have EIGRP found routes (D). Use the show ip route command and other EIGRP show commands to verify EIGRP.

Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used in Lab 3.1.

1.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621A#show ip route Codes: C - connected, S - static, I - IGRP, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2

Lab 3.2: Verifying EIGRP Routing

E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2, E - EGP i - IS-IS, L1 - IS-IS level-1, L2 - IS-IS level-2, * - candidate default U - per-user static route, o - ODR, P - periodic downloaded static route T - traffic engineered route Gateway of last resort is not set 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets D 172.16.30.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.1, 02:20:56, Serial0/0 C 172.16.40.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 D 172.16.50.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.1, 02:20:56, Serial0/0 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 D 172.16.10.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.1, 02:20:56, Serial0/0 2621A#

Notice the routes that begin with D. These are EIGRP routes. 2.

Use the show ip protocol command from 2621 Router A. 2621A#show ip protocol Routing Protocol is "eigrp 10" Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Default networks flagged in outgoing updates Default networks accepted from incoming updates EIGRP metric weight K1=1, K2=0, K3=1, K4=0, K5=0 EIGRP maximum hop count 100 EIGRP maximum metric variance 1 Redistributing: eigrp 10 Automatic network summarization is in effect Maximum path: 4 Routing for networks: 172.16.0.0 Routing information sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.20.1 90 02:23:05 Distance: internal 90 external 170 2621A#

Based on this output, we can see that EIGRP is enabled for autonomous system 10 and that the K values are set to their defaults. The variance is 1, so only equal-cost load balancing will be performed. Automatic summarization is on. We can also see that EIGRP is advertising for one network and that it sees one neighbor.

From the 2621 Router B, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621B#show ip route [output cut] 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 D 172.16.40.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.30.1, 02:22:00, Serial0/0 C 172.16.50.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 D 172.16.20.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.30.1, 02:22:00, Serial0/0 D 172.16.10.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.30.1, 02:22:00, Serial0/0 2621B#

From 2811 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2811A#show ip route [output cut] 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 D 172.16.40.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.2, 00:20:55, Serial0/1/1 D 172.16.50.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.30.2, 00:20:55, Serial0/0/1 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/1/1 C 172.16.10.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 2811A#

5.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip eigrp neighbors command to see the EIGRP neighbor table. This table holds information about the router’s directly connected neighbors. 2621A#show ip eigrp neighbor IP-EIGRP neighbors for process 10 H Address Interface Type 0 172.16.20.1 2621A#

In the above output, H indicates the order in which the neighbor was discovered. The hold time is how long this router will wait for a Hello packet to arrive from a specific neighbor. The uptime indicates how long the neighbor relationship has been established. The SRTT field is the smooth round-trip timer, which is an indication of the time it takes for a round-trip from this router to its neighbor and back. This value is used to determine how long to wait after a multicast for a reply from this neighbor. If a reply is not received, this router will switch to using unicasts to attempt to complete the communication. The time between multicast attempts is specified by the Retransmission Time Out (RTO) field,

Lab 3.2: Verifying EIGRP Routing

443

which is itself based upon the SRTT values. The Q value indicates whether there are any outstanding messages in the queue; consistently large values would indicate a problem. And finally the Seq field indicates the sequence number of the last update from that neighbor, which is used to maintain synchronization and avoid duplicate or out-of-sequence processing of messages. 6.

From the 2621 Router A, use the show ip route eigrp. This command gives you a quick picture of the EIGRP routes. If a route does not appear in the routing table, verify the source of the route. If the source is functioning properly, check the topology table. The routing table from the perspective of 2621 Router A looks like this: 2621A#show ip route eigrp 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 5 subnets D 172.16.30.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:49, Serial0/0 D 172.16.50.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:49, Serial0/0 D 172.16.10.0 [90/2172416] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:49, Serial0/0 2621A#

Notice that most EIGRP routes are indicated with simply a D designation and that the administrative distance of these routes is 90. This represents internal EIGRP routes. If a route has a D EX designation, this would indicate that it is an external EIGRP route, which implies that the route was introduced into EIGRP via redistribution. 7.

From the 2621 Router A, use the show ip eigrp topology command to see the EIGRP topology table. This table shows the entire network as 2621 Router A understands it. If the route is not in the topology table, it is safe to assume that there is a problem between the topology database and the routing table. There must be a reason the topology database is not injecting the route into the routing table. 2621A#show ip route eigrp topology IP-EIGRP Topology Table for AS(10)/ID(172.16.20.2) Codes: P - Passive, A - Active, U - Update, Q - Query, R - Reply, r - reply Status, s - sia Status P 172.16.30.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2172416 via 172.16.20.1 (2172416/28160), Serial0/1/1 P 172.16.40.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2172416 via Connected, FastEthernet0/0 P 172.16.50.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2172416 via 172.16.20.1 (2172416/28160), Serial0/1/1 P 172.16.20.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2172416 via Connected, Serial0/0 P 172.16.10.0/24, 1 successors, FD is 2172416 via 172.16.20.1 (2172416/28160), Serial0/1/1 2621A#

EIGRP

Notice that every route is preceded by a P; this indicates that the route is in the passive state, which is good. Routes in the active state indicate that the router has lost its path to this network and is searching for a replacement. Each entry also indicates the feasible distance, or FD, to each remote network and the next-hop neighbor through which packets will travel to this destination. Each entry also has two numbers in brackets ( ), the first indicating the feasible distance and the second the advertised distance to a remote network. Additionally, if you want to find out about any secondary route (feasible successor route) to another network, you can use the show ip eigrp topology command. 8.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip eigrp traffic command to see if updates are being sent. If the counters for EIGRP input and output packets don’t increase, no EIGRP information is being sent between peers. The following output indicates that 2621A is experiencing normal traffic. 2811A#show ip eigrp traffic IP-EIGRP Traffic Statistics for process 10 Hellos sent/received: 640/279 Updates sent/received: 3/1 Queries sent/received: 0/0 Replies sent/received: 0/0 Acks sent/received: 5/7 Input queue high water mark 1, 0 drops SIA-Queries sent/received: 0/0 SIA-Replies sent/received: 0/0 2811A#

9.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip eigrp events command. This command displays a log of every EIGRP event—when routes are injected and removed from the routing table and when EIGRP adjacencies reset or fail. This information can be used to see if there are routing instabilities in the network. Be cautioned that this command displays a substantial amount of information in even the simplest configurations. 2621A#show ip eigrp events Event information for AS 10: 1 15:49:03.848 Change queue emptied, entries: 1 2 15:49:03.848 Metric set: 172.16.30.0/24 2707456 3 15:49:03.848 Update reason, delay: new if 4294967295 4 15:49:03.848 Update sent, RD: 172.16.30.0/24 4294967295 5 15:49:03.848 Update reason, delay: metric chg 4294967295 6 15:49:03.848 Update sent, RD: 172.16.30.0/24 4294967295 7 15:49:03.848 Route install: 172.16.30.0/24 172.16.20.1 8 15:49:03.848 Find FS: 172.16.30.0/24 4294967295

All of the commands covered in this lab are intended to be used by the system administrator when troubleshooting a problem in the network.

Lab 3.3: Configuring EIGRP Wild Card Masks Cisco added the wild card mask or inverse mask feature to EIGRP in IOS version 12.0(4). EIGRP wild card masks are similar to the OSPF implementation. The addition of wild card masks to the EIGRP configuration suite gives network administrators more administrative control. Wild card masks allow network administrators to easily designate which routed interfaces will or will not participate in EIGRP routing advertisements. In this lab, configure EIGRP wild card masks on each router.


Lab Steps Any previous EIGRP configuration needs to be removed before configuring EIGRP with wild card masks. 1.

Configure wild card masks on 2621 Router A. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no router eigrp 10 2621A(config)#router eigrp 10 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.20.0 0.0.0.255 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 2621A(config-router)#exit 2621A(config)#exit 2621A#copy run start

The commands: network 172.16.20.0 0.0.0.255, and network 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 tell the EIGRP process to look for and advertise interfaces configured with network 172.16.20 or 172.16.40 in the first three octets, and any value in the last octet. 3.

Configure wild card masks on 2621 Router B. 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#no router eigrp 10 2621B(config)#router eigrp 10 2621B(config-router)#network 172.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 2621B(config-router)#exit 2621B(config)#exit 2621B#copy run start

The command: 172.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 tells the EIGRP process to look for and advertise any interface configured with network 172 in the first octet, and any value in the last three octets.

Lab 3.5: Configuring EIGRP Authentication EIGRP Authentication protects network routers from unauthorized access. Implementing EIGRP Authentication adds a layer of security to routing messages. Routing messages are shared among routers in a common autonomous system. Only routers configured with the appropriate authentication credentials will share routing updates. Pre-shared keys (PSKs) and Message Digest 5 (MD5) facilitate messages authentication between routers. Typically, routers belonging to the same EIGRP autonomous system exchange routing updates without requiring message authentication. Routers in this lab will require message authentication before EIGRP routing updates are accepted. Pre-shared keys are configured from global configuration mode. Additionally, authentication will need to be configured on each interface.

As you can see above, the routing table for 2621 Router B has no EIGRP routing entries. Without the correct authentication configured on an interface, 2621 Router B will never receive routing updates.

EIGRP

Lab 3.7: Configuring Advanced Commands with EIGRP This section will have you configure a router with advanced EIGRP commands. Although the network used in this lab is too small to see any advantage to most of these commands, running through the commands on a router will help you become more familiar and comfortable with the commands when used later in the Extended labs or when you build your own larger networks.

Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used in Lab 3.5.

Unless set otherwise, the bandwidth on a serial interface is assumed to be T1 (1.544Kbps). In order to identify slower links, such as a 128K link, you must configure this manually. It is important that the bandwidth setting accurately reflect the actual bandwidth because it is one of the two elements used to calculate a route’s metric. Improperly set bandwidth statements will skew the route decisions made by EIGRP. Use the bandwidth command followed by the bandwidth in kilobits in interface configuration mode. The possible values are from 1 to 10,000,000. The following command sets the bandwidth to 512K: 2621A(config)#interface serial 0/0 Router(config-if)#bandwidth 512

The default for EIGRP is to use 50 percent of the available bandwidth per neighbor. This can be adjusted if you wish, by using the interface configuration command ip bandwidth-percent eigrp as percent, where percent indicates the percentage of bandwidth that EIGRP could potentially use. The following command configures EIGRP to use 40 percent of the available bandwidth per neighbor for autonomous system 10 on interface Serial 0/0: 2621A(config-if)#ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 10 40

In congested networks, it may also be necessary to increase the EIGRP hello-interval and hold-time so that neighbors do not mistakenly assume that an EIGRP neighbor has died when in fact there has simply been a delay in the arrival of Hello packets. The command to set the Hello interval is ip hello-interval eigrp as seconds; this indicates the number of seconds between transmissions of Hello packets. The command to set the hold timer is ip hold-time eigrp as seconds; this indicates how long to wait for a Hello packet before assuming that the neighbor has failed. In general, the hold time should be three times the

Lab 3.7: Configuring Advanced Commands with EIGRP

457

Hello interval. The hello-interval defaults to 60 seconds on NBMA media running at speeds of T1 or slower, and for all other networks, it defaults to 5 seconds. The hold-time defaults to 180 seconds on T1 or slower NBMA networks and 15 seconds on all other networks. Both commands are entered under interface configuration mode, and the seconds parameter can range from 1 to 65535. 2621A(config-if)#interface fastethernet 0/0 2621A(config-if)#ip hello-interval eigrp ? <1-65535> Autonomous system number 2621A(config-if)#ip hello-interval eigrp 10 ? <1-65535> Seconds between hello transmissions 2621A(config-if)#ip hello-interval eigrp 10 100 2621A(config-if)#ip hold-time eigrp 10 ? <1-65535> Seconds before neighbor is considered down 2621A(config-if)#ip hold-time eigrp 10 300

The commands above set the Hello interval to 100 seconds and the hold time to 300 seconds for EIGRP AS 10.

OSPF

Lab 4: Introduction to OSPF OSPF is an open standards routing protocol that has been implemented by a wide variety of network vendors, including Cisco. The easiest way to configure OSPF is simply to use a single area. We will also discuss OSPF DR and BDR Elections. The following labs are covered: NN

4.6: OSPF DR and BDR Elections

Lab 4.1: Configuring Single Area OSPF This section will discuss the OSPF routing process. OSPF an open standards routing protocol that has been implemented by a wide variety of network vendors, including Cisco. The benefit of an approach based on open standards is that equipment from multiple vendors can interoperate as long as their implementations are compliant with the appropriate Requests for Comments (RFCs). This does not mean that vendors are forced to restrict their implementations to only the features documented in the RFCs. On the contrary, Cisco and others have added features to their versions of OSPF that may not be found in other vendors’ implementations. Knowing which features are standards based and which are proprietary becomes important when deploying multivendor OSPF networks. NN

461

The easiest (and least scalable) way to configure OSPF is simply to use a single area, which requires a minimum of two commands. This program only supports a single area OSPF network, which will always be area 0.

The command to activate the OSPF routing process is as follows: 2621A(config)#router ospf ? <1-65535>

A value in the range 1 through 65535 identifies the OSPF Process ID, which is a unique number on this router that groups a series of OSPF configuration commands under a specific running process. Different OSPF routers do not have to use the same Process ID in order to communicate. It is purely a local value and is basically irrelevant. The only time an OPSF number would matter is when you have multiple OSPF Autonomous Systems (AS) connecting together on the same network. This lab will be pretty simple as far as OSPF goes. We will start the process on each router, then configure the interfaces to be in OSPF area 0. This is much more complicated then any of the other routing protocols we have configured, but simple nonetheless for OSPF. However, since EIGRP has a better administrative distance then OSPF, we need to also disable the EIGRP routing processes on each router.

Network Layout Work with the saved network that you have been using in section 3.

462

OSPF

Lab Steps 1.

First, disable EIGRP on the 2621 Router A. 2621A#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2621A(config)#no router eigrp 10

2.

Disable EIGRP on the 2621 B router. 2621B#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2621B(config)#no router eigrp 10

3.

Disable EIGRP on the 2811 Router A. 2811A#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2811A(config)#no router eigrp 10

4.

You will start the OSPF process by issuing the following command, as an example: 2621A(config)#router ospf 100

5.

After starting the OSPF process (and disabling EIGRP on each router), you need to identify the interfaces on which to activate OSPF communications and the area in which each resides. This will also configure the networks you will advertise to others. This is achieved with the following command as an example: 2621A(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area ? <0-4294967295> OSPF area ID as a decimal value A.B.C.D OSPF area ID in IP address format

A 0 (zero) octet in the wildcard mask indicates that the corresponding octet in the network must match exactly. A 255, on the other hand, indicates that you do not care what the corresponding octet is in the network number. A network and wildcard mask combination of 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 would match 1.1.1.1 only and nothing else. This is useful if you want to activate OSPF on a specific interface in a very clear and simple fashion. If you insist on matching a range of networks, the network and wildcard mask combination of 1.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 would match anything in the range 1.1.0.0–1.1.255.255. It’s simpler and safer to stick to using wildcard masks of 0.0.0.0 and identify each OSPF interface individually.

Lab 4.1: Configuring Single Area OSPF

463

Remember that OSPF routers will only become neighbors if their interfaces share a network that is configured to belong to the same area number. The format of the area number is either a decimal value from the range 0–4294967295 or a value represented in standard dotted-decimal notation. Area 0.0.0.0 is a legitimate area, for example, and is identical to area 0. Again, we only support area 0 in this module at this time. Just a reminder, here are the router interface IP addresses for routers on the current network: Router 2621 A 2621 A 2621 B 2621 B 2811 A 2811 A 2811 A

6.

Interface Serial 0/0 Fastethernet 0/0 Serial 0/0 Fastethernet 0/0 Serial 0/1/1 Serial 0/0/1 Fastethernet 0/0

IP Address 172.16.20.2 172.16.40.1 172.16.30.2 172.16.50.1 172.16.20.1 172.16.30.1 172.16.10.1

Configure the 2621 Router A to advertise both directly connected networks with OSPF. The router ospf number does not matter; use whatever feels good to you. The number can even all be the same on all routers, or they can be different. In this lab we will use different numbers. 2621A(config)#router ospf 100 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z

Anatomy of a Command: Network 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 Network 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 - tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.20.2 into area 0. 172.16.20.2—the network number 0.0.0.0—The wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0 tells the process to match each octet exactly. 0 - The final argument is the area number. It indicates the area to which the interfaces identified in the network and wildcard mask portion belong. It tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.20.2 into area 0. The combination of the two first two numbers identifies the interfaces that OSPF will operate on and that will also be included in its OSPF Link State Advertisements (LSA) advertisements.

464

OSPF

Anatomy of a command: network 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.2555 area 0 Network 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 area 0—tells the router OSPF process to look for any interface in subnet 172.16.40.0 and advertise that in area 0. 172.16.40.0—the network number. 0.0.0.255—With a wildcard of 0.0.0.255, this tells the OSPF process to match the first three octets exactly, but the fourth octet value is irrelevant. We could have used this command as well: network 172.16.40.1 0.0.0.0 area 0, which is just another way to advertise the same interface, but is more precise. No difference in function on the router or OSPF. 0—The final argument is the area number. It indicates the area to which the interfaces identified in the network and wildcard mask portion belong. It tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.40.0 into area 0. The combination of the two first two numbers identifies the interfaces that OSPF will operate on and that will also be included in its OSPF Link State Advertisements (LSA) advertisements.

7.

Configure 2621 Router B to advertise both directly connected networks with OSPF. 2621B(config)#router ospf 101 2621B(config-router)#network 172.16.30.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 2621B(config-router)#network 172.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 0 2621B(config-router)#ctrl+z

Now, let us go over what we have configured on 2621 Router B. Please understand that all we are doing is advertising OSPF networks and this lab is showing the many ways to accomplish the same thing. The command network 172.16.30.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.30.2 into area 0. The wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0 tells the process to match all four octets exactly. The command network 172.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area 0 tells the OSPF process to look for an interface configured with network 172 in the first octet, but the other three octets can be any value. Once found, place that interface in area 0. Now, understand that with this second command, the first command is really not needed; we just did it for fun! The network command 172.0.0.0 will find any interface that has an IP address that starts with 172 and put that in area 0.

The show ip ospf command is used to display OSPF information for one or all OSPF processes running on the router. Information contained therein includes the Router ID, area information, SPF statistics, and LSA timer information. Here is a sample output from 2621 Router A: 2621A#sho ip ospf Routing Process "ospf 100" with ID 172.16.40.1

The show ip ospf interface command displays all interface-related OSPF information. Data is displayed about OSPF information for all interfaces or for specified interfaces. Information includes the interface IP address, area assignment, Process ID, Router ID, network type, cost, priority, DR/BDR (if applicable), timer intervals, and adjacent neighbor information. Here is a sample output: 2621A#show ip ospf interface FastEthernet0/1 is up, line protocol is up Internet Address 172.16.40.1/24, Area 0 Process ID 100, Router ID 172.16.40.1, Network Type BROADCAST, Cost: 1

OSPF

The show ip protocols command is useful whether you are running OSPF, EIGRP, IGRP, RIP, BGP, ISIS, or any other routing protocol you can configure on your router. It provides an excellent overview of the actual operation of all currently running protocols. 2621A#show ip protocols Routing Protocol is "ospf 100" Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Router ID 172.16.40.1 Number of areas in this router is 1. 1 normal 0 stub 0 nssa Maximum path: 4 Routing for Networks: 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 Routing Information Sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.30.1 110 00:00:29 172.16.50.1 110 00:00:29 Distance: (default is 110) 2621A#

Based upon this output, you can determine the OSPF Process ID, OSPF Router ID, type of OSPF area, networks and areas configured for OSPF, and OSPF Router IDs of neighbors.

Lab 4.3: OSPF Authentication OSPF supports different methods of authentication. Authentication can be configured to pass the authentication key in clear text or encrypted. You will configure both methods of authentication in this lab. Additionally, when configuring an encrypted key, you can specify a single key or, by assigning numbers to keys, specify a series of keys. 2811 Router A has interfaces in both Area 0 and Area 1. 2811 Router B has an interface in Area 0 directly connected to 2811 Router A. 2811 Router C has an interface in Area 0 directly connected to 2811 Router A. 2811 Router D has an interface in Area 1 directly connected to 2811 Router A. For both the 2811 Router A - 2811 Router B and 2811 Router A - 2811 Router C connections you will configure message digest authentication. For the 2811 Router A - 2811 Router C connection you will configure a key list. For the 2811 Router A - 2811 Router D connection you will configure clear text authentication.

Lab 4.4: Stub Area Configuration Since the main purpose of having stub areas is to keep such areas from carrying external routes, we need to review some design guidelines before configuring a stub area or a totally stubby area: Area 0 (the backbone area) cannot be made a stub area. Since autonomous system boundary routers inject external routes, do not make any area containing an ASBR a stub area. Since routers within a stub area use a default route to get out of the stub area, typically there is only one route out of the stub area. Therefore, a stub area should usually only contain a single area border router. Keep in mind that since a default route is being used, if a stub area contains more than one ABR, a non-optimal path may be used. If you decide to make a particular area a stub area, be sure to configure all the routers in the area as stubby. If a router within a stub area has not been configured as stubby, it will not be able to correctly form adjacencies and exchange OSPF routes. The following are some benefits of a stub area configuration: Smaller Link State Database Reduction in the size of the routing table Reduction in CPU processing for link state advertising Automatic creation of default gateway

474

OSPF

With the guidelines in mind, let’s examine a sample configuration for a stub area. We are going to make Area 2 a stub area.Let’s review some key elements of our stub area configuration example: The syntax to make a router stubby is [area area-id stub]. All routers that are part of Area 2 are configured as stubby. Area 2 has only one ABR (i.e., only one path out of the area). The ABR used the area area-id stub command only for Area 2, not for Area 0, which is not stubby. Network Layout: Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in lab 4.1.

Lab Steps 1.

Configure 2811 Router A to be stubby: 2811A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2811A(config)# router ospf 102 2811A(config-router)#area 2 stub 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z

2.

Configure 2621 Router B to be stubby: 2621B#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2621B(config)#router ospf 101 2621B(config-router)#area 2 stub 2621B(config-router)#ctrl+z

3.

Verify your stub configurations on routers 2811 A, and 2621 B. 2811A#show ip ospf Routing Process “ospf 102” with ID 172.16.30.1 Supports only single TOS(TOS0) routes It is an area border router SPF schedule delay 5 secs, Hold time between two SPFs 10 secs Minimum LSA interval 5 secs.

As you can see, area 2 is now a stub area on both routers. 4.

Issue the show ip route to verify that the routing table now has a gateway of last resort set. 2621B#show ip route Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, M - mobile, B - BGP D - EIGRP, EX - EIGRP external, O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2 E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2

As you can see, a gateway of last resort has automatically been added to the routing table. 5.

Issue the show run command on router 2811 A and 2621 B to verify the stubby c onfiguration.

Lab 4.5: Totally Stub Using the same network topology as we had for the stub area configuration lets examine how to make Area 2 a totally stubby area. Remember, the only difference between a stub area and a totally stubby area is that totally a stubby area does not allow summary routes to be injected into it. The following are some benefits of a totally stub area configuration: Smaller Link State Database Reduction in the size of the routing table Reduction in CPU processing for link state advertising Automatic creation of default gateway Network Layout: Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in lab 4.4.

Lab Steps 1.

As you can see, the routing table still has routes flagged with “O IA”, OSPF inter area routes. The routing table should look like this for now. 2.

Configure OSPF area 2 on the 2811 Router A (ABR) router to be totally stubby: 2811A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2811A(config)#router ospf 102 2811A(config-router)#area 2 stub no-summary 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z

The totally stubby configuration only needs to be made on our (ABR) router 2811 A. 3.

Issue the show ip ospf command to verify your totally stubby configurations on 2811 Router A. 2811A#show ip ospf Routing Process “ospf 100” with ID 172.16.30.1 Supports only single TOS(TOS0) routes It is an area border router SPF schedule delay 5 secs, Hold time between two SPFs 10 secs Minimum LSA interval 5 secs.

You can now see that the routing table no longer has routes flagged with “O IA”, OSPF inter area routes. The routing table only displays directly connected interfaces and a gateway of last resort. As you can see the routing table is noticeable smaller. 5.

Issue the show run command on 2811 Router A to verify the totally stubby configuration.

Lab 4.6: OSPF DR and BDR Elections This lab will have you work with the lab OSPF DR and BDR Election layout to watch the DR and BDR elections on the 10.10.10.0 network, by forcing and verifying the election process.

19. By looking at the show ip ospf interface fa0/0 output, which router is the DR? Which

router is the BDR? 20. Verify the network type of your router. Since the connection is on an Ethernet LAN,

the Network Type is BROADCAST. What would the Network Type be if you were viewing a serial connection? Answer: point-to-point. 21. he priority of all routers, by default, is 1. If you were to change the priority to 0, then

the router would never participate in the election process for the LAN (remember that elections do not occur on serial point-to-point links). 22. Change the priority of a router that you choose to become the new DR. Choose any

router that is not the DR at this moment. 23. Enable the debugging process that allows you to see the DR and BDR election take place.

Use the command debug ip ospf adjacency on the router that will become the DR. 24. For the router that was chosen to become the new DR, set your priority of the

FastEthernet 0/0 interface to 3. Here is how you do that: config t int fa0/0 ip ospf priority 3

25. Now shut down all the Fa0/0 interfaces of all four routers. 26. Now enable all four routers fa0/0 interfaces with the no shut command. 27. The election should take place and the router you have chosen with the highest priority

should now be the DR. 28. Type show ip ospf interface fa0/0 to verify the DR and BDR information. 29. Hopefully you also noticed the debug output of the election process. 30. The priority of a routers interface can be set all the way up to 255. However, if the

priority is set to 255, the DR/BDR can never be formed.

Virtual LANs (VLANs)

Lab 5: Introduction to Virtual LANs VLANs is a group of hosts that are (logically) connected, regardless of their (physical) LAN segment location. This allows you to specify where packets are transmitted instead of them being seen by every device. VLAN configuring is accomplished through software configurations which makes it easy to add or move a single host or group hosts when needed. VLANs create smaller broadcast domains, thus reducing broadcast collisions and increasing the efficiency of your network resources. Easily managing your network, adding security, and the future growth of your network can be addressed by the use of VLANs. This section will cover VLANs configured for the 1900, 3550, and 3560 switches. The labs covered in this section include: NN

Lab 5.1: Configuring VLANs on a 1900 Switch Configuring VLANs is the easy part of the job. It is trying to understand which users you want in each VLAN that is time consuming. Once you have decided the number of VLANs you want to create and the users that will be members of each VLAN, you can create your VLAN. You can create up to 64 VLANs on a 1900 switch.

486


Network Layout Load 1900 Switch Layout.rsm before going through the following lab.

1.


2.


3.

Click on the file 1900 Switch Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click 1900 Switch A in order to bring up the console screen.

2.

To configure VLANs on the 1900 series switch, choose “k” from the initial user interface menu to get into IOS configuration. The following switch output is the console display when connecting to a 1900 switch. Press “k” to enter the CLI mode, and enter global configuration mode using the enable command and then config t. 1 user(s) now active on Management Console. User Interface Menu [M] Menus [K] Command Line Enter Selection: k


487

CLI session with the switch is open. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].

3.

To configure VLANs on an IOS-based switch, use the vlan [vlan#] name [vlan name] command. The following will demonstrate how to configure VLANs on the switch by creating three VLANs for three different departments. >en #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#hostname1900A 1900A(config)#vlan 2 name sales 1900A(config)#vlan 3 name marketing 1900A(config)#vlan 4 name mis 1900A(config)#exit

4.

End with CNTL/Z

After you create the VLANs that you want, you can use the show vlan command to see the configured VLANs. However, notice that by default all ports on the switch are in VLAN 1. To change the VLAN associated with a port you need to go to each interface and tell it what VLAN to be a member of. Once the VLANs are created, verify your configuration with the show vlan command (sh vlan for short). 1900A#sh vlan VLAN Name Status Ports -------------------------------------1 default Enabled 1-12,A,B,AUI 2 sales Enabled 3 marketing Enabled 4 mis Enabled 1002 fddi-default Suspended 1003 token-ring-defau Suspended 1004 fddinet-default Suspended 1005 trnet-default Suspended -------------------------------------[output cut]

5.

You can configure each port to be in a VLAN by using the vlan-membership command. You can only configure VLANs one port at a time. There is no command to assign more than one port to a VLAN at a time with the 1900 switch. In the following example, we configure interface 2 to VLAN 2, interface 4 to VLAN 3, and interface 5 to VLAN 4. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line.

End with CNTL/Z

488

Now, type show vlan again to see the ports assigned to each VLAN. 1900A#sh vlan VLAN Name Status Ports -------------------------------------1 default Enabled 1,3,6-12,A,B,AUI 2 sales Enabled 2 3 marketing Enabled 4 4 mis Enabled 5 1002 fddi-default Suspended 1003 token-ring-defau Suspended 1004 fddinet-default Suspended 1005 trnet-default Suspended -------------------------------------[output cut]

7.

Another command you can use to see the ports assigned to a VLAN is show vlan-membership. Notice that this command shows each port on the switch, which VLAN the port is a member of, and the membership type (static or dynamic). 1900A#sh vlan-membership Port VLAN Membership Type ----------------------------1 1 Static 2 2 Static 3 1 Static 4 3 Static 5 4 Static

Lab 5.3: Configuring VLANs on a 3550 Switch Configuring VLANs is the easy part of the job. It is trying to understand which users you want in each VLAN that is time consuming. Once you have decided the number of VLANs you want to create and the users that will be members of each VLAN, you can create your VLAN.


490


Lab Steps 1.

To configure VLANs on the 3550 series switch, you can configure the VLANs from the VLAN database. You do this from privileged mode, not configuration mode. Type vlan database: 3550A#vlan database

2.

To configure VLANs on the 3550 switch, use the vlan # name name command. The following shows an example of creating three VLANs. 3550A(vlan)#vlan 2 name Sales VLAN 2 added: Name: Sales 3550A(vlan)#vlan 4 name Marketing VLAN 4 added: Name: Marketing 3550A(vlan)#vlan 7 name Research VLAN 7 added: Name: Research 3550A(vlan)#exit APPLY completed. Exiting.... 3550A#

3.

You must apply your changes to the switch. You can either use the apply command or use the exit command which will then apply the changes.

4.

After you create the VLANs that you want, you can use the show vlan command to see the configured VLANs. However, notice that by default all ports on the switch are in VLAN 1. To change the VLAN associated with a port you need to go to each interface and tell it what VLAN to be a member of. Once the VLANs are created, verify your configuration with the show vlan command (show vlan for short). 3550A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/1, Fa0/2, Fa0/4, Fa0/5 Fa0/6, Fa0/7, Fa0/8, Fa0/9 Fa0/10

5.

active active active active active active active

You can configure each port to be in a VLAN by using the switchport access vlan # command. You can only configure VLANs one port at a time. In the following example, we configure interface 1 to VLAN 2, interface 5 to VLAN 7, and interface 10 to VLAN 4. 3550A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 3550A(config)#int fa0/1 3550A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 2 3550A(config)#int fa0/5 3550A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 7 3550A(config-if)#int fa0/10 3550A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 4 3550A(config-if)#exit

6.

491

End with CNTL/Z

You must also set the port to be in access mode, which means that the interface will only be a member of one VLAN. 3550A(config)#int fa0/1 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3550A(config)#int fa0/5 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3550A(config-if)#int fa0/10 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#exit 3550A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration... [OK] 3550A#

492

7.


Now, type show vlan again to see the ports assigned to each VLAN. 3550A#sh vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/2, Fa0/4, Fa0/6, Fa0/7 Fa0/8, Fa0/9 2 Sales active Fa0/1 4 Marketing active Fa0/10 7 Research active Fa0/5 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active [output cut]

Interface Fa0/1 is a member of VLAN 2, interface Fa0/05 a member of VLAN 5, and interface Fa0/10 is a member of VLAN 4. 8.

Another command you can use to see the ports assigned to a VLAN is show running-config. 3550A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/1 switchport access vlan 2 switchport mode access ! interface FastEthernet0/5 switchport access vlan 7 switchport mode access ! interface FastEthernet0/10 switchport access vlan 4 switchport mode access !

Lab 5.4: Configuring Trunk Ports and VTP Domain on a 3550 Switch

493

Lab 5.4: Configuring Trunk Ports and VTP Domain on a 3550 Switch Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in Lab 5.3.

Configure Trunk Ports Trunk links are 100 or 1000 Mbps point-to-point links between two switches, between a switch and router, or between a switch and server. Trunked links carry the traffic of multiple VLANs, from 1 to 1005 at a time. You cannot run trunked links on 10Mbps links, nor would you want to. Remember that an access link is a port on a switch that is a member of only one VLAN. In this network 3560 Switch A is connected to 3550 Switch A via interface Fa0/3 on each device. That is what we are going to use to set our trunk port between the two switches.

Lab Steps 1.

To configure trunking on a 3550 port, use the interface command switchport mode command. In this lab we will set it up for fa0/3. 3550A>en 3550A#config t

494


3550A(config)#int fa0/3 3550A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation ? dot1q Interface uses only 802.1q trunking encapsulation when trunking isl Interface uses only ISL trunking encapsulation when trunking negotiate Device will negotiate trunking encapsulation with peer on interface 3550A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk

2.

By default, traffic from all VLANs are sent over a trunk link. To change the VLANs permitted to send traffic on a trunk link, use the switchport trunk allowed vlan except # command. The command allows traffic from all VLANs except the VLANs listed. In lab 9.5 we set up VLAN 7, for now we do not want to allow VLAN 7 to send traffic across the trunk link. 3550A(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan except 7

3.

The above command sets the trunking interface to allow traffic from all VLANs except for VLAN 7.

4.

To verify your trunk ports, use the show running-config command. 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#exit 3550A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/3 switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-6,8-1005 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q ! [output cut]

5.

Notice in the above output that all VLANs are allowed except for VLAN 7.

Configure VTP Domain Every Catalyst switch is configured by default to be a VTP server. To configure VTP, first configure the domain name you want to use, as discussed in the next section. Once you configure the VTP information on a switch, you need to verify the configuration.


6.

495

Use the vtp global configuration mode command to set this information. In the following example, we explicitly set switch 3550 A to be a VTP server, which it already is, and then set the VTP domain to routersim. 3550A(config)#vtp mode server Device mode already VTP SERVER. 3550A(config)#vtp domain routersim Changing VTP domain name from NULL to routersim 3550A(config)#

7.

After you configure the VTP information, you can verify it with the show vtp status command. 3550A#show vtp status VTP Version : 2 Configuration Revision : 4 Maximum VLANs supported locally : 64 Number of existing VLANs : 8 VTP Operating Mode : Server VTP Domain Name : routersim VTP Pruning Mode : Disabled VTP V2 Mode : Disabled VTP Traps Generation : Disabled MD5 digest : 0x70 0x01 0xF2 0x72 0x97 0xA1 0x35 0xEB Configuration last modified by: 172.16.10.17 at 11-29-93 20:39:24 Local updater ID is 172.16.10.17 on interface Vl1 (lowest numbered VLAN interface found) 3550A#

The preceding switch output shows the VTP domain and the switch’s mode.

Lab 5.5: Configuring VLANs on a 3560 Switch In this lab we want to eventually associate ports 2 and 8 with VLANs 2 and 4, that were set up for 3550 Switch A in lab 5.3. However, we do not have to manually set up VLANs 2 and 4 again for 3560 Switch A. That can be broadcast from 3550 Switch A (from work you did in lab 5.2), however, we must do a couple things in order to facilitate that.

496



Lab Steps 1.

Initially, let’s issue the show vlan command to verify that there are no VLANs associated with 3560 Switch A. 3560A#sh vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/1, Fa0/2, Fa0/4, Fa0/5 Fa0/6, Fa0/7, Fa0/8, Gi0/1 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active [output cut]

No VLANs!


2.

497

We now need to configure two ports, one for each VLAN by using the switchport access vlan # command. You can only configure VLANs one port at a time. In the following example, we configure interface 2 to VLAN 2 and interface 8 to VLAN 4. 3560A(config)#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 3560A(config)#int fa0/2 3560A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 2 3560A(config-if)#int f0/8 3560A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 4

3.

End with CNTL/Z

You must also set the port to be in access mode, which means that the interface will only be a member of one VLAN. 3560A(config)#int fa0/2 3560A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3560A(config-if)#int fa0/8 3560A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3560A(config-if)#exit 3560A(config)#exit 3560A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration... [OK] 3560A#

4.

We can verify what we did with the two ports with the show run command. 3560A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/2 switchport access vlan 2 switchport mode access ! interface FastEthernet0/8 switchport access vlan 4 switchport mode access ! [output cut] 3560A#

Lab 5.6: Configuring Trunk Ports and VTP Domain on a 3550 Switch Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in Lab 5.5.

Configure Trunk Ports Trunk links are 100 or 1000 Mbps point-to-point links between two switches, between a switch and router, or between a switch and server. Trunked links carry the traffic of multiple VLANs, from 1 to 1005 at a time. You cannot run trunked links on 10Mbps links, nor would you want to. Remember that an access link is a port on a switch that is a member of only one VLAN.

Lab Steps 1.

To configure trunking on a 3560 port, use the interface command switchport mode trunk command. In this lab we will configure interface fa0/3. 3560A>en 3560A#config t

499

3560A(config)#int fa0/3 3560A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk 3560A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

2.

To verify your trunk port, use the show running-config command. 3560A(config-if)#exit 3560A(config)#exit 3560A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/3 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q ! [output cut]

Configure VTP Domain Every Catalyst switch is configured by default to be a VTP server. To configure VTP, first configure the domain name you want to use, as discussed in the next section. Once you configure the VTP information on a switch, you need to verify the configuration. 3.

Use the vtp global configuration mode command to set this information. In the following example, we set the switch to a VTP client and then set the VTP domain to routersim. 3560A(config)#config t 3560A(config)#vtp mode client Setting device to VTP CLIENT mode. 3560A(config)#vtp domain routersim Changing VTP domain name from NULL to routersim 3560A(config)#ctrl+z

4.

After you configure the VTP information, you can verify it with the show vtp command. 3560A#sh vtp status VTP Version Configuration Revision Maximum VLANs supported locally Number of existing VLANs VTP Operating Mode VTP Domain Name VTP Pruning Mode

The preceding switch output shows the VTP domain and the switch’s mode. 5.

VLAN information should now be propagated from 3550 Switch A to 3560 Switch A. Confirm this with the show vlan command. 3560A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/1, Fa0/4, Fa0/5, Fa0/6, Fa0/7 Gi0/1 2 Sales active Fa0/2 4 Marketing active Fa0/8 7 Research active 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active VLAN 7 will not be allowed to pass any traffic on the trunk link because we issued the command switchport trunk allowed vlan except 7 in lab 5.4, step 2.

Lab 5.7: IntraVLAN and InterVLAN Routing In previous labs we have set up VLANs 2 and 4 for the 3550 and 3560 switches. We will first set up the proper subnetting so that we can place Hosts A and C in VLANs 2 and Hosts B and D in VLANs 4. We will then have you test this by communicating with the

Lab 5.7: IntraVLAN and InterVLAN Routing

501

VLANS. Then we will set up interVLAN routing so that Hosts from VLANs 2 and 4 can communicate with each other. Network devices in different VLANs cannot communicate with each other without sending traffic through a router. In this lab we will use 2811 Router A to perform the 802.1q routing so that we can route traffic between the two VLANs. Two new subnets will be needed. We will us subnets 172.16.2.0/24 and 172.16.3.0/24. 2811 Router A FastEthernet 0/0 interface will stay at 172.16.10.1/24, however, the IP address needs to be moved to a subinterface, which we’ll do in a minute.


Lab Steps 1.

We configured all hosts in this network in ICND1 lab 2.11. If you have not configured the hosts in this lab, you should go through ICND1 lab 2.11. Let’s start from that point. VLAN 2 will have a subnet of 172.16.2.0/24 and VLAN 4 will have a subnet of 172.16.3.0/24. Change the current IP addresses of the hosts so they are in their proper VLAN. Change the IP addresses and defaultgateways of the four hosts.

Once you can ping, you know you have configured both VLANs correctly. At this time, Host B and Host D cannot ping anything else in the network except each other. 5.

To have the hosts ping outside their own VLAN, you must setup some type of routing You also need to setup a trunk link between the switch and the router. Use 2811 Router A FastEthernet 0/0 interface and create 802.1q routing. Create three subinterfaces, one for each VLAN. To establish a trunk link between 3550 Switch A and the 2811 Router A, configure FastEthernet 0/4, on the 3550 Switch A as a trunk port with 802.1q encapsulation. 2811A>enable 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#int fa0/0 2811A(config-if)#no ip address 2811A(config-if)#int fa0/0.1 2811A(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 1 2811A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-subif)# int fa0/0.2 2811A(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 2 2811A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.2.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-subif)# int fa0/0.3 2811A(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 4 2811A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.3.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-subif)#router ospf 102 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.2.0 0.0.0.255 a 0 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.3.0 0.0.0.255 a 0 2811A(config-subif)#exit 2811A(config)#exit 2811A#copy run start

At this point, the hosts should be able to ping all hosts and 2811 Router A.

Access Lists

Lab 6: Introduction to Managing Traffic with Access Lists This set of labs will have you configure IP filtering on the internetwork. The proper use and configuration of access lists is a vital part of router configuration. Contributing mightily to the efficiency and optimization of your network, access lists give network managers a huge amount of control over traffic flow throughout the internetwork.

Access List A set of permissions that have been established at an interface level that are used to permit or deny packets moving through a router, and permit or deny Telnet (VTY) access to or from a router. It essentially acts as a packet filtering firewall.

With access lists, managers can gather basic statistics on packet flow and security policies can be implemented. Sensitive devices can also be protected from unauthorized access. We will discuss access lists for TCP/IP, and we will cover some of the tools available to test and monitor the functionality of applied access lists.

There are two types of access lists used with IP. Standard access lists use only the source IP address in an IP packet to filter the network. This basically permits or denies an entire suite of protocols. IPX standards can filter on both source and destination IPX address. Extended access lists these check for both source and destination IP address, protocol field in the Network layer header, and port number at the Transport layer header. Once you create an access list, you apply it to an interface with either an inbound or outbound list: Inbound access lists packets are processes through the access list before being routed to the outbound interface. Outbound access lists packets are routed to the outbound interface and then processed through the access list.

Lab 6.1: Standard IP Access-Lists This lab will have you block access to network 172.16.40.0 from Host F. Access-lists can be tricky because if you do not create your lists correctly, you can bring the network down. There are two steps with access-lists: NN

From the Host F menu, bring up the console for the 2621 Router A.

4.

Create an access-list that blocks access from host F trying to get to network 172.16.40.0. 2621A>enable 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#access-list 10 deny host 172.16.50.3 2621A(config)#access-list 10 permit any

That is all we’re going to do for the list. Remember that IP standard access-lists should be created closest to the destination network, which is why we built that access-list on 2621 Router A. It is directly connected to network 172.16.40.0.

511

After creating an access-list for 2621 Router A, we now need to add the access-list to the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A.

2621A(config)#interface serial 0/0 2621A(config-if)#ip access-group 10 in

This applied the access-list 10 to the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A and filtered any incoming packets. 6.

Lab 6.2: Verifying Standard IP Access-Lists Pinging and telnetting through the internetwork is a really good way to verify the network and access-lists. However, using the Cisco IOS commands is also a good way to verify the lists.

Network Layout Work with the saved network that you used to configure devices in lab 6.1.

Lab 6.2: Verifying Standard IP Access-Lists

513

Lab Steps 1.

Bring up the console for 2621 Router A and type show access-list to see the list configured on the router. 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2621A#show access-list Standard IP access list 10 deny 172.16.50.3 permit any 2621A#

2.

You can also type either show ip access-list or show access-list 10 to gather specific list configurations. 2621A#show access-list 10 Standard IP access list 10 deny 172.16.50.3 permit any 2621A#

3.

To see which interface has access-lists applied, use the show ip interface command. 2621A#show ip interface Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.20.2/24 Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255 Address determined by setup command MTU is 1514 bytes Helper address is not set Directed broadcast forwarding is disabled Outgoing access list is not set Inbound access list is 10 [output cut]

4.

The show running-config is useful to see both the access-list and to verify the interface where the access-list is applied. 2621Ashow run [output cut] ! interface Serial0/0 description connection to 2811A

Lab 6.3: Applying an Access-List to a VTY Line You will have a difficult time trying to stop users from telneting into a router because any active port on a router is fair game for VTY access. However, you can use a standard IP access-list to control access by placing the access-list on the VTY lines themselves. To perform this function: 1.

Create a standard IP access-list that permits only the host or hosts you want to be able to telnet into the routers.

2.

Apply the access list to the VTY line with the access-class command. This lab will have you stop Host F from telneting into 2621 Router A.

Lab Steps 1.

Remove the access-list on 2621 Router A. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no access-list 10

2.

Remove the access-list on the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A. 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#no ip access-group 10 in You can just type no access-list 10 on to remove the access-list, but you must type the whole command from the interface to remove the list from the interface on the router.

3.

Verify that Host F can telnet into 2621 Router A. C:\>telnet 172.16.20.2 Connecting To 172.16.20.2 ... This is 2621 Router A User Access Verification Password: 2621A>

Access Lists

Lab Steps 1.

From 2621 Router A, type the show access-list command to see the configured list. 2621A#show access-list Extended IP access list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet permit ip any any 2621A#

2.

Use the show access-list 110 command to see only list 110. 2621A#show access-list 110 Extended IP access list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet permit ip any any 2621A#

3.

You can also use show ip access-list to see only the IP access-list configured on your router. 2621A#show ip access-list Extended IP access list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet permit ip any any 2621A#

4.

Verify which interface has an access-list set by using the show ip interface command on 2621 Router A. 2621A#show ip interface Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.20.2/24 Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255 Address determined by setup command MTU is 1514 bytes Helper address is not set Directed broadcast forwarding is disabled Outgoing access list is not set Inbound access list is 110 [output cut] 2621A#

NAT/PAT

Lab 7.1: Configuring Dynamic NAT This section will show you how to configure NAT to translate from real ISP assigned addresses to private addresses so that the inside network can communicate to the Internet.

Network Layout Use the network the you worked with in ICND1 lab 5.1. The network is Nat-Pat Layout.rsm or whatever you renamed it in the earlier lab. If you have not completed that lab, please go back and go through it.

Lab 7.1: Configuring Dynamic NAT

527

Lab Steps 1.

In this step, you’ll configure a dynamic NAT pool on 2811 Router B. Create a pool of addresses called RouterSim on 2811 Router B. The pool should contain a range of addresses of 171.16.10.50 through 171.16.10.55. 2811B(config)#ip nat pool RouterSim 171.16.10.50 171.16.10.55 net 255.255.255.0

2.

Create access-list 1. This list permits traffic from the 192.168.20.0 and 192.168.10.0 network to be translated. 2811B(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 2811B(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255

3.

Map the access list to the pool that was created. 2811B(config)#ip nat inside source list 1 pool RouterSim

4.

Configure fa0/0 as an inside NAT interface. 2811B(config)#int fa0/0 2811B(config-if)#ip nat inside

5.

Configure serial 0/0/0 as an outside NAT interface. 2811B(config-if)#int s0/0/0 2811B(config-if)#ip nat outside

6.

Bring up the console for 2811 Router D. Telnet from 2811 Router D to 2811 Router A—do not disconnect. 2811D#telnet 171.16.10.1 Trying 171.16.10.1 ... Open Password required, but none set [Connection to 171.16.10.1 closed by foreign host] 2811D#

We received this message because we did not set up a telnet password on 2811 Router A. 7.

Go to the 2811 A router and set up a telnet password. 2811A#config t 2811ARouter(config)#line vty 0 1180 2811ARouter(config-line)#password todd2

8.

Try step 6 again and if you are successful, move on to step 9.

528

9.

NAT/PAT

Bring up the console for 2811 Router C. Telnet from the 2811 Router C to 2811 Router A—do not disconnect. 2811C#telnet 171.16.10.1

10. Go back to 2811 Router A and execute the command show users. (This shows who is

accessing the VTY lines). 2811A#show users Line User 0 con 0 2 vty 0 * 3 vty 1 Interface User 2811A#

Mode

Notice that there is a one-to-one translation. Which means you must have a real IP address for every host that wants to get to the Internet, which is not always possible. 11. Leave the session open on 2811 Router A and connect back to 2811 Router B. 12. Bring up the console for 2811 Router B and view your current translations by entering the show ip nat translation command. You should see something like this: 2811B#sh ip nat translations Pro Inside global Inside local --- 171.16.10.50 192.168.20.2 --- 171.16.10.51 192.168.10.2 2811B#

Outside local -----

Outside global -----

Remember that the “inside local is before translation” and the “inside global is after translation”, and how you are known on the Internet. Exit out of the telnet session from 2811 Router D. 13. If you turn on debug ip nat on 2811 Router B and then ping through the router from

2811 Router D, you will see the actual NAT process take place, which will look something like this: 2811B#debug ip nat 2811D#ping 171.16.10.1 2811B# Feb 27 17:16:18.256: NAT*: s=192.168.20.2->171.16.10.52, d=171.16.10.1 [1] Feb 27 17:16:18.260: NAT*: s=171.16.10.1->171.16.10.52, d=192.168.20.2 [1]


Lab 7.2: Configuring PAT

529

Lab 7.2: Configuring PAT Port Address Translation (PAT), also called NAT Overload, uses TCP and UDP port numbers to uniquely identify hosts on the inside network so that everyone on the inside network can use only one real IP address to send packets to the Internet. Static NAT is a one-for-one translation, which means that each host uses a unique real IP address to send packets to the Internet. By using PAT, we save address space by using only one real IP address for all hosts. In this lab, you’ll configure Port Address Translation (PAT) on 2811 Router B. We will use PAT because we don’t want a one-to-one translation, but instead we want to just use one IP address for every user on the network.

Network Layout Use the network you worked with in lab 7.1.

NAT/PAT

Lab Steps 1.

Terminate the telnet sessions on 2811 Router C by using the exit command.

2.

On the 2811 Router B, delete the translation table and remove the dynamic NAT pool. 2811B#clear ip nat translation * 2811B#config t 2811B(config)#no ip nat pool RouterSim 171.16.10.50 171.16.10.55 netmask 255.255.255.0 2811B(config)#no ip nat inside source list 1 pool RouterSim

3.

On 2811 Router B, create a NAT pool with one address called Lammle. The pool should contain a single address 171.16.10.100. Enter the command below: 2811B(config)#ip nat pool Lammle 171.16.10.100 171.16.10.100 netmask 255.255.255.0

4.

Create access-list 2. It should permit networks 192.168.20.0 and 192.168.10.0 to be translated. 2811B(config)#access-list 2 permit 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 2811B(config)#access-list 2 permit 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255

5.

Map the access-list 2 to the new pool, allowing PAT to occur by using the overload command. 2811B(config)#ip nat inside source list 2 pool Lammle overload

6.

Bring up the console for 2811 Router D and telnet to 2811 Router A. Then bring up the 2811 Router C and telnet to 2811 Router A.

7.

From the ISP router use the show users command. The output should look something like this: 2811A>sh users Line User 0 con 0 2 vty 0 * 3 vty 1 Interface User 2811A>

Host(s) idle idle idle Mode


Lab 7.3: NAT/PAT Final Configuration Exercise

8.

From 2811 Router B use the show ip nat translations command. 2811B#sh ip nat translations Pro Inside global Inside local tcp 171.16.10.100:1723 192.168.10.2:1723 tcp 171.16.10.100:1723 192.168.20.2:1723 2811B#

VLSM with Summarization

Lab 8.1: VLSM with Summarization Lab— Configuring Routers The following lab will have you configure a medium size network into block sizes of 32 (/27) using the EIGRP routing protocol and summarizing the classless boundaries. The switches will not be configured in this lab and they will behave just like hubs. You will configure each router in the lab with the appropriate IP addressing and verify the configuration in lab 8.2.

Network Layout Load VLSM Layout.rsm before going through the following lab.

1. On the Network Visualizer screen, click on the File menu and then click Open. 2. When the dialog box appears, make sure you are in the Networks folder. 3. Click on the file VLSM Layout.rsm and click Open.

Lab 8.1: VLSM with Summarization Lab—Configuring Routers

539

Routers 2811 A through 2811 E will be configured in the 192.168.10.32/27 network and routers 2811 F through 2811 J will be configured in the 192.168.10.64/27 network. In each network there are four block sizes of four (the WAN links) and two block sizes of eight (the LANs). To connect routers 2811 A and 2811 F across the backbone, we will use the 10.1.1.0/24 network. This is called discontiguous networking because we have one class of network (192.168.10.0) connecting across to the same network address through the 10.0.0.0 network— and this will not work by default. RIPv1 and IGRP can never work in this type of network. In order to use VLSM with discontiguous networking in your network, you must use one the following routing protocols: RIPv2, EIGRP, OSPF or ISIS (these are considered classless routing protocols). This lab will have you use EIGRP as the classless routing protocol.

Discontiguous Networking When a major network like 192.168.10.0 is separated by a different major network like 10.0.0.0. Example: The 192.168.10.0/24 network can be subnetted into two or more networks. The networks 192.168.10.36/30 and 192.168.10.80/29 are configured on different routers. The routers are using the 10.0.0.0 network to connect to each other, thus one major network being separated by another major network.

Here is the IP addressing scheme used in this lab for routers 2811 A through 2811 E: (notice how the four block sizes of four, and two block sizes of eight fit in one block size of 32—VLSM network addressing). Router

Lab 8.4: VLSM with Summarization Lab—Configuring EIGRP with Discontiguous Networking In this lab you will configure the classless routing protocol EIGRP on each router. EIGRP is an advanced Distance Vector routing protocol that supports VLSM and discontiguous networks. In addition, it can be used to manually summarize contiguous network boundaries, which is what we have. Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is a Cisco proprietary hybrid routing protocol. It uses the properties of both distance vector and link state and uses an administrative distance of 90, so it will automatically overwrite RIP (which has a

548


default administrative distance of 120) routes in the routing table. Also, it uses autonomous systems (AS) to create groups of routers that share routing information. The major difference between IGRP and EIGRP is that EIGRP uses three different tables to create a stable routing environment and additionally EIGRP only sends updates when needed whereas IGRP broadcasts routing table entries every 90 seconds. Remember that although EIGRP is considered a classless routing protocol (which means it sends subnet mask information with each route update), it is configured in a classful manner. What this means is that you turn off all subnet bits and host bits to add each network statement—which is why the network statement is 192.168.10.0, not 192.168.10.32, 192.168.10.36, etc. for each subnet. EIGRP will find the subnets; you don’t type subnets in with the network statement. Router A is directly connected to the 192.168.10.0 network, but also the 10.1.1.0/24 network is directly connected off of F0/0. What is the network statement we will use? Remember, ALL subnet bits and host bits are off! Add EIGRP with AS 10 to each router, using the correct network statement. Also, add the network statement of network 192.168.10.0 under EIGRP 10 for each router, except for routers A and F, which will need the network 10.0.0.0 statement as well.

Network Layout Use the network you were working with in Lab 8.2.

Lab Steps 1.

From each router global configuration prompt, add the routing protocol EIGRP with an AS number of 10: 2811A>en 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#router eigrp 10 2811A(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811A(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0 2811A(config)#auto-summary 2811A(config-router)# 2811B>en 2811B#config t 2811B(config)#router eigrp 10 2811B(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811B(config)#auto-summary 2811B(config-router)# 2811C>en 2811C#config t 2811C(config)#router eigrp 10 2811C(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811C(config)#auto-summary 2811C(config-router)# 2811D>en 2811D#config t 2811D(config)#router eigrp 10 2811D(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811D(config)#auto-summary 2811D(config-router)# 2811E>en 2811E#config t 2811E(config)#router eigrp 10 2811E(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811E(config)#auto-summary 2811E(config-router)# 2811F>en 2811F#config t 2811F(config)#router eigrp 10 2811F(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811F(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0

2.

Now that we have added our directly connected networks under EIGRP (remember, add networks, not subnets!), we need to configure 2811 Router A and 2811 Router F to work using discontiguous networking. Take a look at the routing table of each router and notice that you can see the subnets in the routing table from each contiguous network only (2811 Router A through 2811 Router E and 2811 Router F through 2811 Router J). This is because discontiguous networking does not work by default. 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811A#sh ip route 2811F(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811F#sh ip route

We need to add the no auto-summary command to 2811 Router A and 2811 Router F to have this work. 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#router eigrp 10 2811A(config-router)#no auto-summary 2811F#config t 2811F(config)#router eigrp 10 2811F(config-router)#no auto-summary

Auto-summary The process of taking subnets like 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 and summarizing them down to their base network class. In the case of 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 the networks are summarized to their Class C base network address of 192.168.10.0/24.

No auto-summary The process of taking the subnets like 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 and not summarizing them down to their base network class. In the case of 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29, the networks are never summarized to their Class C base network address of 192.168.10./24 when classful network boundaries are encountered.

4.

Now, let’s take a look at the routing tables of each router and notice that ALL subnets are now listed in each router’s routing table. 2811J#show ip route [output cut] 10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets D 10.1.1.0 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 192.168.10.0/24 is variably subnetted, 12 subnets, 2 masks D 192.168.10.44/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.68/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.32/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0

This is a small network and the routing tables are manageable.. However, if we had more routers, our routing tables would be rather large, which takes up memory and router processing parsing the routing table. What can we do to make our routing table smaller, more efficient, yet still keep all our connectivity from end to end? You guessed it! Summarization baby!

Lab 8.5: VLSM with Summarization Lab—Configuring Summarization Now that we have configured the internetwork from end to end using VLSM and discontiguous networking, and EIGRP with the no auto-summary command to support the discontiguous network, it is time to configure summarization. Summarization would be done on the boundaries of each contiguous configured network (routers 2811 A and 2811 F). Summarization is used by EIGRP under the interface configuration using the ip summary-address eigrp 10 network mask command. Before we add the summary commands to routers 2811 A and 2811 F, we need to know what network and mask to add to the summary command. Remember, summary addresses are configured in block sizes, just like subnets. The summary address for the 2811 Router A would be 192.168.10.32, since we are starting at subnet 32; however, what is our summary mask? Well, what is the block size of our contiguous networks? Thirty-two (32). What mask provides a block size of 32? A /27, which is 255.255.255.224; this is our summary mask. For the 2811 F configuration, we would start at subnet 192.168.10.64, which is also a summary mask of /27, since the contiguous networks fit in a block size of 32.

Lab 8.5: VLSM with Summarization Lab—Configuring Summarization

553

Network Layout Use the network you were working with in Lab 8.4.

Lab Steps 1.

Here is our configuration on both routers: 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#interface fa0/0 2811A(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 10 192.168.10.32 255.255.255.224 2811F#config t 2811F(config)#interface fa0/0 2811F(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 10 192.168.10.64 255.255.255.224

At this point, we have disabled automatic summarization under EIGRP since we need to support discontiguous networking. We then configured manual summarization at contiguous classful boundaries. 2.

If we take a look at the routing tables now, we can see that 2811 Router A is summarizing the contiguous network with a 192.168.10.32/27 route into the 2811 Router F routing tables, which is then sent to the other routers connected to 2811 Router F. 2811F>en 2811F#show ip route

554


[output cut] 192.168.10.0/24 is variably subnetted, 7 subnets, 3 masks C 192.168.10.64/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 D 192.168.10.80/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.66, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/1 C 192.168.10.68/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.72/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.66, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/1 D 192.168.10.76/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.70, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.32/27 [90/2172416] via 10.1.1.1, 00:05:49, FastEthernet0/0 D 192.168.10.88/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.70, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/0 10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets C 10.1.1.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0

3.

For 2811 Router A, the routing table now looks like this, which is sent to all routers connected to 2811 Router A. 2811A#show ip route [output cut] 10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets C 10.1.1.0 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 192.168.10.0/24 is variably subnetted, 7 subnets, 3 masks C 192.168.10.36/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.64/27 [90/2172416] via 10.1.1.2, 00:02:53, FastEthernet0/0 D 192.168.10.44/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.38, 00:02:53, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.40/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.34, 00:02:53, Serial0/0/1 D 192.168.10.48/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.34, 00:02:53, Serial0/0/1 C 192.168.10.32/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 D 192.168.10.56/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.38, 00:02:53, Serial0/0/0

Our routing tables are smaller, more efficient, and easier for IP to parse.

Individual Labs (Comprehensive)

Introduction to Individual Labs We offer CCNA labs that are comprehensive and self-contained. They stand on their own, and do not require configurations from prior labs. These labs are typically longer than the accumulative labs because you are starting with a non-configured network each time you bring up an Individual lab. You are totally configuring the network for each lab, from beginning to finish. We provide step-by-step instructions for these labs.

Grading When you have finished with each Individual lab ... You can check your work by clicking the Grade Me button in the upper right hand corner of the Network Visualizer screen.

Individual Lab: RIP Routing

557

Individual Lab: RIP Routing Configuring the routers with static and default routing is interesting to say the least. However, it is not very often that you would use just static and default routing in a network these days. This lab will have you configure Routing Information Protocol (RIP), one of the first dynamic routing protocols created. It is easy and works pretty well in small to medium size networks. Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

RIP N

Stands for routing information protocol. Sends routing-update messages at regular intervals (usually every 30 seconds) and when the network topology changes. Uses a single metric called a hop, which measures the distance between the source and destination. Is limited to a hop count of 15. It has a maximum hop count. This means a network cannot be more than 15 hops from the source to the destination. Otherwise the destination is deemed as unreachable. Has a timeout timer that is used on a period basis (usually every 30 seconds) for each known route. If the timer times out this usually means that path is no longer available. Therefore that route is removed from routing tables. Does not support VLSM.

Dynamic Routing The process of routers in an Intranet or internet advertising route information automatically between each other. There is typically a common dynamic routing protocol configured on each router. RIP Version 1 and 2, OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP are some examples of dynamic routing protocols. When all routers have received routing updates and have updated routing tables, the network is said to have converged. Convergence means that all routers in the internetwork have the same routing information. At this point, a routed protocol, IP for example, can send user data throughout the internetwork.

4.

From 2621 Router A, configure RIP routing and tell RIP the network you want to advertise.

562


Router RIP Command Turns on RIP routing.

Network Command Should be entered for each of the networks that the router is connected to and is a part of the RIP network. In our network we have only one network, network 172.16.0.0.

2621A#config t 2621A(config)#router rip 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z

That’s all there is to it! Dynamic routing is easy on small networks. The important thing to notice here is that the network address is a classful address, which means you use the classful boundary.

Classful Routing Routing protocols (i.e., RIPv1 and IGRP) where subnet masks (routing masks) are not sent in the periodic routing updates. For example, we use a 172.16.0.0 class B network address and subnet that network with 24 bits of subnetting. This means the third octet is used for subnets and the fourth octet are the host addresses for each subnet. RIP is a classful routing protocol, which means that you do not type in any subnet addresses, only the class B address. When using a classful network protocol like RIP, make sure that all networked devices have the same subnet mask.

5.

From 2621 Router B, configure RIP routing and tell RIP the network you want to advertise. 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#router rip 2621B(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2621B(config-router)#ctrl+z

563

From 2811 Router A, configure RIP routing and tell RIP the network you want to advertise. 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#router rip 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z

Verify Configurations 7.

From 2621 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621A#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets R 172.16.30.0 [120/1] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:21, Serial0/0 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 2621A#

Notice the “R”, which means it is a RIP found route. The “C” is a directly connected network. You should see two directly connected routes and three RIP routes. 8.

From 2621 Router B, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621B#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 R 172.16.20.0 [120/1] via 172.16.30.1, 00:00:13, Serial0/0 2621B#

9.

From 2811 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2811A#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/1/1

10. From 2621 Router B, use the debug ip rip command to see RIP updates being sent

and received on the router. 2621B#debug ip rip RIP protocol debugging is on 2621B# then after a few seconds .... *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0

564


*Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.20.0 in 2 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.20.0 in 3 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0 *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: 172.16.20.0 in 4 hops *Oct 13 17:19:25.906: RIP: received v1 update from 172.16.30.1 on Serial0/0 [output cut]

11. To turn off debugging, use the no debug ip rip command, or the undebug all

command. 2621B#undebug all

12. To see detailed information about currently configured protocols on a router, use the show ip protocols command. 2621B#show ip protocols Routing Protocol is "rip" Sending updates every 30 seconds, next due in 19 seconds Invalid after 180 seconds, hold down 180, flushed after 240 Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Redistributing: rip Default version control: send version 1, receive any version Interface Send Recv Triggered RIP Key-chain Serial0/0 1 1 2 Automatic network summarization is in effect Maximum path: 4 Routing for networks: 172.16.0.0 Routing information sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.30.1 120 00:00:11 Distance: 2621B#

Notice the timers. RIP is sent out every 30 seconds by default. The administrative distance for RIP is 120 by default. Administrative distance is a measure of the trustworthiness of the source of the routing information. It is reported as a number between 0 and 255. The smaller the number, the more reliable the protocol. If you have, for example, two protocols IGRP and RIP configured on a router, the IGRP routes will be preferred over the RIP routes. This is because you have an administrative distance of 120 for RIP and 100 for IGRP.

13. Another really good command is the show protocols command, which shows you the

routed protocol configuration of each interface. 2621B#show protocols Global values: Internet protocol routing is enabled Serial0/1 is administratively down, line protocol is down Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.30.2/24 FastEthernet0/1 is administratively down, line protocol is down FastEthernet0/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down 2621B#


566

14. From 2811 Router A, use the show protocols command. 2811A#show protocols Global values: Internet protocol routing is enabled Serial0/0/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down Serial0/0/1 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.30.1/24 Serial0/1/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down Serial0/1/1 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.20.1/24 FastEthernet0/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down FastEthernet0/1 is administratively down, line protocol is down 2811A#

RIPv2 You will now configure RIPv2. RIPv2 RIP does not carry subnet information. To overcome this, RIPv2 was created in 1994 to address some deficiencies in RIP. RIPv2 can carry subnet information. RIPv2 sends routing updates via multicast address 224.0.0.9. It also provides support for variable length subnet masks (VLSM) and discontiguous networking. RIPv2 is not automatically turned on with the router rip command. You must also specify it and use the version 2 command. 15. From 2621 Router A, configure RIP routing to use version 2. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#router rip 2621A(config-router)#version 2 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z

That’s all there is to it! Since we have already added our directly connected networks under router rip in our last lab, we now just have to tell it to run version 2. 16. From 2621 Router B, configure RIP routing to use version 2. 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#router rip 2621B(config-router)#version 2 2621B(config-router)#ctrl+z


567

17. From 2811 Router A, configure RIP routing to use version 2. 2811A#config t 2811Aconfig)#router rip 2811A(config-router)#version 2 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z

Verify Configurations 18. From 2621 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621A#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets R 172.16.30.0 [120/1] via 172.16.20.1, 00:00:13, Serial0/0 C 172.16.20.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0

Notice the “R”, which means it is a RIP found route. The “C” is a directly connected network. The routing tables will look the same as version 1 unless you have VLSM networks configured. 19. From the 2621 Router B, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2621B#show ip route 172.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 2 subnets C 172.16.30.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0 R 172.16.20.0 [120/1] via 172.16.30.1, 00:00:09, Serial0/0

20. From 2811 Router A, use the show ip route command to verify the routing table. 2811A#show ip 172.16.0.0/24 C 172.16.30.0 C 172.16.20.0

route is subnetted, 2 subnets is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 is directly connected, Serial0/1/1

21. From 2621 Router A, use the debug ip rip command to see RIP updates being sent

and received on the router. 2621A#debug ip rip

22. To turn off debugging, use the no debug ip rip command, or the undebug all

command. 2621A#undebug all


568

23. To see the routing protocol timers, use the show ip protocols command. 2621A#show ip protocols Routing Protocol is "rip" Sending updates every 30 seconds, next due in 23 seconds Invalid after 180 seconds, hold down 180, flushed after 240 Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Redistributing: rip Default version control: send version 2, receive version 2 Interface Send Recv Triggered RIP Key-chain Serial0/0 1 1 2 Automatic network summarization is in effect Maximum path: 4 Routing for networks: 172.16.0.0 Routing information sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.20.1 120 00:00:07 Distance: 2621A#

Notice the timers. RIP is sent out every 30 seconds by default. The administrative distance is 120 by default. Both RIPv1 and RIPv2 use the same timers.

Individual Lab: IPv6 Static Routing Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is the new addressing scheme that will eventually replace all IPv4 addresses. The IPv4 address scheme is no longer adequate to meet the needs of the growing Internet, and growing Intranets. IPv6 was also designed to increase routing performance and network scalability issues. IPv6 addresses are 128 bits in length. Hexadecimal Groups IPv6 addresses are divided into eight, 16 bit hexadecimal groups. For example, 2001:0000:0000:0008:0000:0000:0000:0012 can be divided into ... 2001:

This lab will have you create an IPv6 network. In this network you will use IPv6 to create both default and static routing. The network used in this lab has IPv4 addresses already configured on each router interface. Having both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on an interface is called DUAL stacking. You will also verify your IPv6 Static Routing configurations. When you have finished with this lab ... You can check your work by clicking the Grade Me button in the upper right hand corner of the Network Visualizer screen.

Configure two IPv6 static routes on 2811 Router A. 2811A(config)#ipv6 route 2001::40:0/112 2001::30:2 2811A(config)#ipv6 route 2001::50:0/112 2001::20:2 2811A(config)#exit 2811A#copy run start

The static routes will allow 2811 Router A to communicate with the rest of the network. 6.

Configure a IPv6 default route on 2811 Router B. 2811B(config)#ipv6 route 2811B(config)#exit 2811B#copy run start

::/0 2001::30:1

This default route will allow 2811 Router B to communicate with the rest of the network. 2811 Router B will use router 2811 A as a gateway of last resort. 7.

Configure a IPv6 default route on 2811 Router C. 2811C(config)#ipv6 route 2811C(config)#exit 2811C#copy run start

::/0 2001::20:1

This default route will allow 2811 Router C to communicate with the rest of the network. 2811 Router C will use router Router A as a gateway of last resort.

Verifying IPv6 Static Routing 8.

On 2811 Router A, issue the show running-configuration command to verify the IPv6 configurations. 2811A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/0 ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0 no ip directed-broadcast ipv6 address 2001::10:1/112 ! [output cut] ! interface Serial0/0/0

As you can see, each interface has an IPv6 address. You can also see the IPv6 static routes that are configured. 9.

On 2811 Router A, issue the show ipv6 interface command to see which router interfaces are configured for IPv6. 2811A#show ipv6 interface FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up IPv6 is enabled, link-local address is FE80::21A:2FFF:FE55:D408 Global unicast address(es): 2001::10:1, subnet is 2001::10:0/112 Joined group address(es): FF02::1 FF02::2 FF02::1:FF10:1 FF02::1:FF55:D408 MTU is 1500 bytes ICMP error messages limited to one every 100 milliseconds ICMP redirects are enabled [output cut] Serial0/0/0 is up, line protocol is up

Individual Lab: PPP Encapsulation Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

The High-Level Data-Link Control protocol (HDLC) is a point-to-point protocol used on leased lines. No authentication can be used with HDLC and it is the default encapsulation used by Cisco routers over synchronous serial links. Cisco’s HDLC is proprietary—it won’t communicate with any other vendor’s HDLC implementation. If you wanted to either offer authentication on a serial link or to connect from a Cisco router to another vendor router, then we need to configure PPP on the serial interfaces.

Individual Lab: PPP Encapsulation

583

PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) is a data-link protocol that can be used over asynchronous serial (dial-up) media and uses the LCP (Link Control Protocol) to build and maintain datalink connections. The basic purpose of PPP is to transport layer-3 packets across a Data Link layer point-to-point link. This lab will have you configure PPP on all four serial networks, and replace HDLC as the encapsulation method on our serial links. When you have finished with this lab ...

That’s all there is to it. This part is easy.

Verifying PPP Encapsulation Once you have replaced HDLC as the serial encapsulation method, then you need to verify your network is still working properly. The first command to use is the show ip route command to make sure all your IP routes are still present. 8.

Configuring PPP Authentication with CHAP Now that the network should be up and working with PPP, you can use PPP authentication to stop unwanted users from connecting to your network. Although, this is typically used with dial-up, it still can be used with serial interfaces. This lab will have you configure PPP authentication on all router’s serial interfaces using the CHAP protocol. Challenge Authentication Protocol (CHAP) is used at the initial startup of a link and at period checkups on the link to make sure the router is still communicating with the same host. After PPP finishes its initial phase, the local router sends a challenge request to the remote device. The remote device sends a value calculated using a one-way hash function called MD5. The local router checks this hash value to make sure it matches. If the values don’t match, the link is immediately terminated. 12. To configure PPP authentication, first set the hostname of the router if it is not already

set (this is not an option!). Then set the username and password for the remote router connecting to your router. For example, if you are connected to 2621 Router A and want to configure authentication, you would set the hostname and then create a username that consists of the router you are going to connect to, in this example, 2811 Router A. This is shown below: Router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#hostname 2621A 2621A(config)#username 2811A password cisco

When using the hostname command, remember that the username is the hostname of the remote router connecting to your router. It is case-sensitive. Also, the password on both routers must be the same. It is a plain-text password and can be seen with a show run command. You must have a username and password configured for each remote system you are going to connect to. The remote routers must also be configured with usernames and passwords. 13. After you set the hostname, usernames, and passwords, choose the authentication as

shown in the following example: 2621A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. 2621A(config)#int s0/0


591

2621A(config-if)#ppp authentication chap 2621A(config-if)#exit 2621A(config)#

14. Open a console to 2621 Router A and create a username of 2811 Router A and with

a password of cisco. Then configure the serial interface 0/0 to use ppp authentication of chap. 2621A(config)#username 2811A password cisco 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#ppp authentication chap 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2621A#

15. Open a console to 2621 Router B and create a username of 2811 Router A and with

a password of cisco. Then configure the serial interface 0/0 to use ppp authentication of chap. 2621B#config t 2621B(config)#username 2811A password cisco 2621B(config)#int s0/0 2621B(config-if)#ppp authentication chap 2621B(config-if)#ctrl+z 2621B#

16. Open a console to 2811 Router A and create a username of 2621 Router A and 2621

Router B and with a password of cisco. Then configure the serial interfaces 0/0/1 and 0/1/1 to use ppp authentication of chap. 2811A(config)#username 2621A password cisco 2811A(config)#username 2621B password cisco 2811A(config)#int s0/0/1 2811A(config-if)#ppp authentication chap 2811A(config)#int s0/1/1 2811A(config-if)#ppp authentication chap 2811A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2811A#

Verifying PPP with Authentication Once you have configured PPP with authentication as the serial encapsulation method, then you need to verify your network is still working properly. The first command to use is the show ip route command to make sure all your IP routes are still present. The next command to use is the show interface command.

Frame Relay provides connection-oriented, Data Link layer communication via virtual circuits. These virtual circuits are logical connections created between two DTEs across a packet-switched network, which is identified by a DLCI, or Data Link Connection Identifier. Also, Frame Relay uses both PVCs (Permanent Virtual Circuits) and SVCs (Switched Virtual Circuits, which is a form of dialup), although most Frame Relay networks use only PVCs. This virtual circuit provides the complete path to the destination network prior to the sending of the first frame. Frame Relay provides a communications interface between DTE (data terminal equipment) and DCE (data circuit-terminating equipment, such as packet switches) devices. DTE consists of terminals, PCs, routers, and bridges—customer-owned end-node and Internetworking devices. DCE consists of carrier-owned internetworking devices. Frame Relay sends packets at the Data Link Layer (layer 2) of the OSI model rather than at the network layer (layer 3). A frame can incorporate packets from different protocols.

Understand Frame Relay Frame Relay Uses Virtual Circuits` Frame Relay provides connection-oriented, Data Link layer communication via virtual circuits. These virtual circuits are logical connections created between two DTEs across a packet-switched network, which is identified by a DLCI, or Data Link Connection Identifier. Also, Frame Relay uses both PVCs (Permanent Virtual Circuits) and SVCs (Switched Virtual Circuits, which is a form of dialup), although most Frame Relay networks use only PVCs. This virtual circuit provides the complete path to the destination network prior to the sending of the first frame.

Configuring Frame Relay Encapsulation When configuring Frame Relay on Cisco routers, you need to specify it as an encapsulation on serial interfaces. There are only two encapsulation types: Cisco and IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). The following router output shows the two different encapsulation methods when choosing Frame Relay on your Cisco router: 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay ? ietf Use RFC1490 encapsulation

The default encapsulation is Cisco unless you manually type in IETF, and Cisco is the type used when connecting two Cisco devices. You’d opt for the IETF-type encapsulation if you needed to connect a Cisco device to a non-Cisco device with Frame Relay.

Frame Relay DLCI Frame Relay virtual circuits (PVCs) are identified by Data Link Connection Identifiers (DLCIs). A Frame Relay service provider, such as the telephone company, typically assigns DLCI values, which are used by Frame Relay to distinguish between different virtual circuits on the network. Because many virtual circuits can be terminated on one multipoint Frame Relay interface, many DLCIs are often affiliated with it.

Individual Lab: Frame Relay Switching

597

For the IP devices at each end of a virtual circuit to communicate, their IP addresses need to be mapped to DLCIs. This mapping can function as a multipoint device—one that can identify to the Frame Relay network the appropriate destination virtual circuit for each packet that is sent over the single physical interface. The mappings can be done dynamically through IARP (Inverse ARP) or manually through the frame relay map command. DLCI numbers, used to identify a PVC, are typically assigned by the provider and start at 16. Configuring a DLCI number to be applied to an interface is shown below: 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay interface-dlci ? <16-1007> Define a DLCI as part of the current subinterface 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay interface-dlci 16

Frame Relay LMI The Local Management Interface (LMI) was developed in 1990 by Cisco Systems, StrataCom, Northern Telecom, and Digital Equipment Corporation and became known as the Gang-of-Four LMI or Cisco LMI. This gang took the basic Frame Relay protocol from the CCIT and added extensions onto the protocol features that allow internetworking devices to communicate easily with a Frame Relay network. The LMI is a signaling standard between a CPE device (router) and a frame switch. The LMI is responsible for managing and maintaining status between these devices. If you’re not going to use the auto-sense feature of LMI, you’ll need to check with your Frame Relay provider to find out which type to use instead. The default type is Cisco, but you may need to change to ANSI or Q.933A. The three different LMI types are depicted in the router output below. 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ? cisco ansi q933a 2621A(config-if)#frame-relay lmi-type ansi

You can have multiple virtual circuits on a single serial interface and yet treat each as a separate interface. These are known as subinterfaces. Think of a subinterface as a hardware interface defined by the IOS software. An advantage gained through using subinterfaces is the ability to assign different Network layer characteristics to each subinterface and virtual circuit, such as IP routing on one virtual circuit and IPX on another.

Subinterfaces with Frame Relay You define subinterfaces with the int s0.subinterface number command as shown below. You first set the encapsulation on the serial interface, and then you can define the subinterfaces. 2621A(config-int)#encapsulation frame-relay 2621A(config-int)#exit

598


2621A(config)#int s0/0.? <0-4294967295> Serial interface number 2621A(config)#int s0/0.16 ? multipoint Treat as a multipoint link point-to-point Treat as a point-to-point link 2621A(config)#int s0/0.16 point-to-point 2621A(config-subif)#

You can define an almost limitless number of subinterfaces on a given physical interface (keeping router memory in mind). In the above example, we chose to use subinterface 16 because that represents the DLCI number assigned to that interface. However, you can choose any number between 0 and 4,292,967,295.

Configuring Frame-Relay Lab Steps Now that you should have a background on how to configure basic Frame Relay on a Cisco router, this lab will have you configure 2811 Router A as a Frame Relay switch. Then you’ll configure routers 2621 A and 2621 B as remote Frame Relay connections. 1.

Open a console for 2811 A and configure the hostname. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2811A 2811A(config)#

Once your router is clear, you can now make them a Frame Relay switch with the frame-relay switching command. However, that is the easy part. You need to map every DLCI on the switch. Of course the router only has two connections, so it is not too time consuming, but if you had dozens of PVCs, this could take a while. 2811 A serial 0/0/1 DLCI 16 serial 0/1/1 DLCI 17

On the frame relay switch, use the frame relay route command to map each and every DLCI. Here is an example: 2811A(config)#int s0/0/1 2811A(config-if)#frame-relay route 17 interface serial 0/1/1 16 2811A(config-if)#exit 2811A(config)#

Configuring Frame-Relay

599

This command tells the switch that if it receives a frame on serial 0/0/1 with a PVC of 16, then send it out serial 0/1/1 using a PVC of 17. Again, in our network, this configuration will only be two routes so it’s not a big deal. 2.

On 2811 Router A configure the Frame Switching. No IP addresses are assigned to the routes interfaces. Remember, this is a Data Link layer function only, so IP is irrelevant to this configuration. 2811A(config)#frame-relay switching 2811A(config)#int s0/0/1 2811A(config)#encapsulation frame-relay 2811A(config-if)#no shut 2811A(config-if)#frame intf-type dce 2811A(config-if)#frame-relay route 17 interface serial 0/1/1 16 2811A(config-if)#int s0/1/1 2811A(config)#encapsulation frame-relay 2811A(config-if)#no shut 2811A(config-if)#frame intf-type dce 2811A(config-if)#frame-relay route 16 interface serial 0/0/1 17 2811A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2811A#

Configuring Frame Relay with Subinterfaces Now that the Frame-Relay switching router is configured, you need to configure the remote routers. You will bring up the console for routers 2621 A and 2621 B and configure them for Frame Relay configuration using subinterfaces. Since the Frame-Relay switches are not using IP addressing, connecting from routers 2621 A to 2621 B, for example, will use one subnet and appear like a direct connection. Use subnet 172.16.100.0. 3.

Open a console on 2621 Router A and configure the serial 0/0 interface with a Frame Relay subinterface. To perform this, you must remove the IP address and IPX network number from the serial interface. In this lab we do not have an existing IP address but we wanted to include the configuration to remove it. You may be constructing your own network and already have an IP address for s0/0 and you will need to remember to remove it. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2621A 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#no ip address 2621A(config-if)#no shut 2621A(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay 2621A(config-if)#int s0/0.16 point-to-point

4.

Open a console on 2621 Router B and configure the serial 0/0 interface with a Frame Relay subinterface. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2621B 2621B(config)#int s0/0 2621B(config-if)#no ip address 2621B(config-if)#no shut 2621B(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay 2621B(config-if)#int s0/0.17 point-to-point 2621B(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.100.2 255.255.255.0 2621B(config-subif)#frame-relay interface-dlci 17 2621B(config-subif)#ctrl+z 2621B#

5.

Verify the Frame-Relay connection is up and running. Ping from 2621 Router A to 2621 Router B. 2621A#ping 172.16.100.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.100.2, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/4 ms 2621A#

Verifying Frame Relay There are several ways to check the status of your interfaces and PVCs once you have Frame Relay encapsulation set up and running. You can use the show frame-relay command with a question mark (?) to get the command options: 2621A#show frame ? ip show frame relay IP statistics lapf show frame relay lapf status/statistics lmi show frame relay lmi statistics map Frame-Relay map table

Configuring Frame-Relay

6.

Change to the console for 2621 Router A.

7.

The show frame-relay lmi command will give you the LMI traffic statistics exchanged between the local router and the Frame Relay switch. 2621A#show frame lmi LMI Statistics for interface Serial0/0 (Frame Relay DTE) LMI TYPE = CISCO Invalid Unnumbered info 0 Invalid Prot Disc 0 Invalid dummy Call Ref 0 Invalid Msg Type 0 Invalid Status Message 0 Invalid Lock Shift 0 Invalid Information ID 0 Invalid Report IE Len 0 Invalid Report Request 0 Invalid Keep IE Len 0 Num Status Enq. Rcvd 1748 Num Status msgs Sent 1748 Num Update Status Sent 0 Num St Enq. Timeouts 0 2621A#

The router output from the show frame-relay lmi command shows you LMI errors as well as the LMI type. 8.

The show frame pvc command will list all configured PVCs and DLCI numbers. It provides the status of each PVC connection and traffic statistics. It will also give you the number of BECN and FECN packets received on the router. 2621A#show frame pvc PVC Statistics for interface Serial0/0 (Frame Relay DTE) DLCI = 16 , DLCI USAGE = LOCAL , PVC STATUS = ACTIVE , INTERFACE = Serial0/0.16 input pkts 11290 output pkts 11277 in bytes 898590 out bytes 899156 dropped pkts 2 in FECN pkts 0 in BECN pkts 0 out FECN pkts 0 out BECN pkts 0 in DE pkts 0 out DE pkts 0 out bcast pkts 11264 out bcast bytes 898468 pvc create time 13:25:57, last time pvc status changed 13:25:39 2621A#

9.

You can also use the show interface command to check for LMI traffic. The show interface command displays information about the encapsulation as well as layer-2 and layer-3 information. The LMI DLCI is used to define the type of LMI being used. If it is 1023, it is the default LMI type of Cisco. If the LMI DLCI is zero, then it is the ANSI LMI type.

It did not work. Click on the Net Detective icon to see if we can find out why the ping was not successful.


609

You will see the following information: 1.

Network 172.16.0.0 was not found in the routing tables for 2621 Router A.

2.

The desired address falls outside of the protocol networks set up for one or more of the devices.

3.

The desired IP address of 172.16.30.2 was not found. None of the interfaces in the current network have been configured with this IP address.

Net Detective® Unless you are an expert in using routers and switches, you might enter a command, have it not work, and not immediately know what you did wrong. We have tried to bridge that gap with Net Detective®. There are several hundred commands that Net Detective monitors. If something does not work properly, clicking on the Net Detective button may prove be helpful. For example, if you are unsuccessful in trying to ping between 2600 A and 2600 B, Net Detective® will provide a several suggestions as to what is possibly wrong.

We know that Network 172.16.0.0 is in the routing table. Maybe #2 is true. Ok, I found it. The AS number for 2811 Router A is wrong. Change it from 15 to 10. 9.

First, remove router eigrp 15 and put the correct command in. 2811A(config)#no router eigrp % Incomplete command. (We forgot to put 15 in the command. Try again) 2811A(config)#no router eigrp 15 2811A(config)#router eigrp 10 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.0.0 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811A#

10. Now the ping should work. Go to 2621 Router A and ping interface f 0/0 on 2621 B. 2621A#ping 172.16.30.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.16.30.2, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/4 ms 2621A#

Individual Lab: Single Area OSPF Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

This section will discuss the OSPF routing process. OSPF an open standards routing protocol that has been implemented by a wide variety of network vendors, including Cisco. The benefit of an approach based on open standards is that equipment from multiple vendors can interoperate as long as their implementations are compliant with the appropriate Requests for Comments (RFCs). This does not mean that vendors are forced to restrict their implementations to only the features documented in the RFCs. On the contrary, Cisco and others have added features to their versions of OSPF that may not be found in other vendors’ implementations. Knowing which features are standards based and which are proprietary becomes important when deploying multivendor OSPF networks. N

The easiest (and least scalable) way to configure OSPF is simply to use a single area, which requires a minimum of two commands. The command to activate the OSPF routing process is as follows: 2621A(config)#router ospf ? <1-65535>

A value in the range 1– 65535 identifies the OSPF Process ID, which is a unique number on this router that groups a series of OSPF configuration commands under a specific running process. Different OSPF routers do not have to use the same Process ID in order to communicate. It’s purely a local value and its number is basically irrelevant. The only time an OPSF number would matter is when you have multiple OSPF Autonomous Systems(AS) connecting together on the same network. This lab will be pretty simple as far as OSPF goes. We’ll start the process on each router, then configure the interfaces to be in OSPF area 0. This is much more complicated then any of the other routing protocols we have configured, but simple nonetheless for OSPF. However, since EIGRP has a better administrative distance then OSPF, we need to also disable the EIGRP routing processes on each router. You will start the OSPF process by issuing the following command, as an example: 2621A(config)#router ospf 100

After starting the OSPF process (and disabling EIGRP on each router), you need to identify the interfaces on which to activate OSPF communications and the area in which each resides. This will also configure the networks you will advertise to others. This is achieved with the following command as an example: 2621A(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 area ? <0-4294967295> OSPF area ID as a decimal value A.B.C.D OSPF area ID in IP address format

618


A 0 (zero) octet in the wildcard mask indicates that the corresponding octet in the network must match exactly. A 255, on the other hand, indicates that you do not care what the corresponding octet is in the network number. A network and wildcard mask combination of 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 would match 1.1.1.1 only and nothing else. This is useful if you want to activate OSPF on a specific interface in a very clear and simple fashion. If you insist on matching a range of networks, the network and wildcard mask combination of 1.1.0.0 0.0.255.255 would match anything in the range 1.1.0.0–1.1.255.255. It’s simpler and safer to stick to using wildcard masks of 0.0.0.0 and identifying each OSPF interface individually. Remember that OSPF routers will only become neighbors if their interfaces share a network that is configured to belong to the same area number. The format of the area number is either a decimal value from the range 0–4294967295 or a value represented in standard dotted-decimal notation. Area 0.0.0.0 is a legitimate area, for example, and is identical to area 0. Again, we only support area 0 in this module at this time. 4.

Configure 2621 Router A to advertise both directly connected networks with OSPF. The router OSPF number does not matter; use whatever feels good to you. The number can even all be the same on all routers, or they can be different. In this lab we will use different numbers. 2621A(config)#config t 2621A(config)#router ospf 100 2621A(config-router)#network 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 2621A(config-router)#ctrl+z

Anatomy of a Command: Network 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 Network 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0—tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.20.2 into area 0. 172.16.20.2

The network number.

0.0.0.0 The wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0 tells the process to match each octet exactly. 0 The final argument is the area number. It indicates the area to which the interfaces identified in the network and wildcard mask portion belong. It tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.20.2 into area 0. The combination of the two first two numbers identifies the interfaces that OSPF will operate on and that will also be included in its OSPF Link State Advertisements (LSA).

5.

Configure 2621 Router B to advertise both directly connected networks with OSPF. 2621B(config)#config t 2621B(config)#router ospf 101


619

2621B(config-router)#network 172.16.30.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 2621B(config-router)#ctrl+z

Now, let’s go over what we have configured on 2621 Router B. Please understand that all we are doing is advertising OSPF networks and this lab is showing the many ways to accomplish the same thing. The command network 172.16.30.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 tells the OSPF process to advertise the interface 172.16.30.2 into area 0. The wildcard mask of 0.0.0.0 tells the process to match all four octets exactly. 6.

Configure the 2811 A router to advertise all directly connected networks with OSPF. 2811A(config)#config t 2811A(config)#router ospf 102 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.20.1 0.0.0.0 area 0 2811A(config-router)#network 172.16.30.1 0.0.0.0 area 0 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z

The show ip ospf command is used to display OSPF information for one or all OSPF processes running on the router. Information contained therein includes the Router ID, area information, SPF statistics, and LSA timer information.

The show ip ospf interface command displays all interface-related OSPF information. Data is displayed about OSPF information for all interfaces or for specified interfaces. Information includes the interface IP address, area assignment, Process ID, Router ID, network type, cost, priority, DR/BDR (if applicable), timer intervals, and adjacent neighbor information. Here is a sample output: 2621A#show ip ospf interface Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet Address 172.16.20.2/24, Area 0 Process ID 100, Router ID 172.16.20.2, Network Type POINT_TO_POINT, Cost: 64 Transmit Delay is 1 sec, State POINT_TO_POINT, No designated router on this network No backup designated router on this network Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5 Hello due in 00:00:08 Index 1/1, flood queue length 0 Next 0x0(0)/0x0(0) Last flood scan length is 0, maximum is 0 Last flood scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msec Neighbor Count is 1, Adjacent neighbor count is 1 Adjacent with neighbor 172.16.30.1 Suppress hello for 0 neighbor(s) 2621A#


621

Notice in the above output that the hello timer is set to 10 seconds and the dead timer is set to 40. If two or more routers are connected together, the timers must be set exactly the same. 10. The show ip ospf neighbor command is very useful. It summarizes the pertinent

OSPF information regarding neighbors and the adjacency state. If a DR or BDR exists, that information is also displayed. Here is an output from 2621 Router A: 2621A#show ip ospf neighbor Neighbor ID Pri State 172.16.30.1 1 FULL/DROTHER 2621A#

Dead Time 00:00:36

11. The show ip protocols command is useful whether you’re running OSPF, EIGRP,

IGRP, RIP, BGP, ISIS, or any other routing protocol you can configure on your router. It provides an excellent overview of the actual operation of all currently running protocols. 2621A#show ip protocols Routing Protocol is "ospf 100" Outgoing update filter list for all interfaces is not set Incoming update filter list for all interfaces is not set Router ID 172.16.20.2 Number of areas in this router is 1. 1 normal 0 stub 0 nssa Maximum path: 4 Routing for networks: 172.16.20.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 area 0 Routing information sources: Gateway Distance Last Update 172.16.30.1 110 00:00:09 172.16.30.2 110 00:00:09 Distance: 2621A#

12. Based upon this output, you can determine the OSPF Process ID, OSPF Router ID,

type of OSPF area, networks and areas configured for OSPF, and OSPF Router IDs of neighbors.

Individual Lab: OSPF DR and BDR Elections You need to fully understand the terms neighbors and adjacencies because they’re really crucial to the DR and BDR election process. The election process happens when a broadcast or nonbroadcast multi-access network is connected together. (Think Ethernet or Frame Relay.) Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Neighbors Routers that share a common segment become neighbors on that segment. These neighbors are elected via the Hello protocol. Hello packets are sent periodically out of each interface using IP multicast. Two routers won’t become neighbors unless they agree on the following: Area-ID The idea here is that the two routers interfaces have to belong to the same area on a particular segment. And of course, those interfaces have to belong to the same subnet. Authentication OSPF allows for the configuration of a password for a specific area. Although authentication between routers isn’t required, you have the option to set it if you need to do so. Also, keep in mind that in order for routers to become neighbors, they need to have the same password on a segment if you’re using authentication. Hello and Dead Intervals OSPF exchanges Hello packets on each segment. This is a keepalive system used by routers to acknowledge their existence on a segment and for electing a designated router (DR) on both broadcast and nonbroadcast multi-access segments. The Hello interval specifies the amount of seconds between Hello packets. The Dead interval is the number of seconds that a router’s Hello packets can go without being seen before its neighbors declare the OSPF router dead (down). OSPF requires these intervals to be exactly the same between two neighbors. If any of these intervals are different, the routers won’t become neighbors on that segment. You can see these timers with the show ip ospf interface command. Adjacencies In the election process, adjacency is the next step after the neighboring process. Adjacent routers are routers that go beyond the simple Hello exchange and proceed into the database exchange process. In order to minimize the amount of information exchanged on a particular segment, OSPF elects one router to be a designated router (DR) and one router to be a backup designated router (BDR) on each multi-access segment. The BDR is elected as a backup router in case the DR goes down. The idea behind this is that routers have a central point of contact for information exchange. Instead of each router exchanging updates with every other router on the segment, every router exchanges information with the DR and BDR. The DR and BDR then relay the information to everybody else. DR and BDR Elections DR and BDR election is accomplished via the Hello protocol. Hello packets are exchanged via IP multicast packets on each segment. However, only segments that are broadcast and nonbroadcast multi-access networks (examples are Ethernet and Frame Relay) will perform DR and BDR elections. Point-topoint links, like a serial WAN for example, will not have a DR election process. On a broadcast or nonbroadcast multi-access network, the router with the highest OSPF priority on a segment will become the DR for that segment. This priority is shown with the show ip ospf interface command. The default priority for a router interface is one. If all routers have the default priority set, the router with the highest Router ID (RID) will win. The RID is determined by the highest IP address on any interface at the moment of OSPF startup. This can be overridden with a loopback (logical) interface. If you set a router’s interface to a priority value of zero, that router won’t participate in the DR or BDR election on that interface. The state of the interface with priority zero will then be DROTHER.

17. In 2621 Router A verify the RID of your router. Use the show ip ospf command on

the router to gather this information. 2621A#show ip ospf Routing Process "ospf 1" with ID 10.10.10.1 Supports only single TOS(TOS0) routes SPF schedule delay 5 secs, Hold time between two SPFs 10 secs

19. By looking at the show ip ospf interface fa0/0 output, which router is the DR?

Which router is the BDR? 20. Verify the network type of your router. Since the connection is on an Ethernet LAN,

the Network Type is BROADCAST. What would the Network Type be if you were viewing a serial connection? Answer: point-to-point. 21. The priority of all routers, by default, is 1. If you were to change the priority to 0, then

the router would never participate in the election process for the LAN (remember that elections do not occur on serial point-to-point links). 22. Change the priority of a router that you choose to become the new DR. Choose any

router that is not the DR at this moment. 23. Enable the debugging process that allows you to see the DR and BDR election take place. Use the command debug ip ospf adjacency on the router that will become the DR. 24. For the router that was chosen to become the new DR, set your priority of the

FastEthernet 0/0 interface to 3. Here is how you do that: config t int fa0/0 ip ospf priority 3

25. Now shut down all the Fa0/0 interfaces of all four routers. 26. Now enable all four routers’ fa0/0 interfaces with the no shut command. 27. The election should take place and the router you have chosen with the highest priority

should now be the DR. 28. Type show ip ospf interface fa0/0 to verify the DR and BDR information.

Hopefully you also noticed the debug output of the election process. The priority of a router’s interface can be set all the way up to 255.

Configuring VLANs is the easy part of the job. It is trying to understand which users you want in each VLAN that is time consuming. Once you have decided the number of VLANs you want to create and the users that will be members of each VLAN, you can create your VLAN. We will set up VLANs on 3550 Switch A and 3560 Switch A. We will test intraVLAN routing and then use router 2811 A to create interVLAN routing.

Network Layout On the Network Visualizer screen, click on the Labs menu and then choose Individual, VLANS and then VLANS and InterVLAN.


631

Lab Steps Setting Up VLANS 1.

Double-click 3550 Switch A to bring up the console screen. Switch>enable Switch#config t Switch#hostname 3550A 3550A#exit

2.

To configure VLANs on the 3550 series switch, you can configure the VLANs from the VLAN database. You do this from privileged mode, not configuration mode. Type vlan database: 3550A#vlan database

3.

To configure VLANs on the 3550 switch, use the vlan # name name command. The following shows an example of creating three VLANs. 3550A(vlan)#vlan 2 name Sales VLAN 2 added: Name: Sales 3550A(vlan)#vlan 4 name Marketing VLAN 4 added: Name: Marketing 3550A(vlan)#vlan 7 name Research VLAN 7 added: Name: Research 3550A(vlan)#exit APPLY completed. Exiting.... 3550A#

4.

You must apply your changes to the switch. You can either use the apply command or use the exit command which will then apply the changes.

5.

After you create the VLANs that you want, you can use the show vlan command to see the configured VLANs. However, notice that by default all ports on the switch are in VLAN 1. To change the VLAN associated with a port you need to go to each interface and tell it what VLAN to be a member of.

632

6.


Once the VLANs are created, verify your configuration with the show vlan command. 3550A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/1, Fa0/2, Fa0/4, Fa0/5 Fa0/6, Fa0/7, Fa0/8, Fa0/9 Fa0/10 2 Sales active 4 Marketing active 7 Research active 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active [output cut]

7.

You can configure each port to be in a VLAN by using the switchport access vlan # command. You can only configure VLANs one port at a time. In the following example, we configure interface 1 to VLAN 2, interface 5 to VLAN 7, and interface 10 to VLAN 4. 3550A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. 3550A(config)#int fa0/1 3550A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 2 3550A(config)#int fa0/5 3550A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 7 3550A(config-if)#int fa0/10 3550A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 4 3550A(config-if)#exit

8.

End with CNTL/Z

You must also set the port to be in access mode, which means that the interface will only be a member of one VLAN. 3550A(config)#int fa0/1 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3550A(config)#int fa0/5 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3550A(config-if)#int fa0/10 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#exit 3550A#copy run start


633

Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration... [OK] 3550A#

9.

Now, type show vlan again to see the ports assigned to each VLAN. 3550A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/2, Fa0/4, Fa0/6, Fa0/7 Fa0/8, Fa0/9 2 Sales active Fa0/1 4 Marketing active Fa0/10 7 Research active Fa0/5 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active [output cut]

Interface fa0/1 is a member of VLAN 2, interface fa0/05 a member of VLAN 5, and interface fa0/10 is a member of VLAN 4. 10. Another command you can use to see the ports assigned to a VLAN is show running-config. 3550A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/1 switchport access vlan 2 switchport mode access ! interface FastEthernet0/5 switchport access vlan 7 switchport mode access ! interface FastEthernet0/10 switchport access vlan 4 switchport mode access ! [output cut] 3550A#

634


11. Now let us move on to 3560 Switch A. By using the console menu, change to the 3560

Switch A console screen.

12. Add a hostname to 3560 Switch A. switch>enable switch#config t switch#hostname 3560A 3560A#exit

13. Initially, let us issue the show vlan command to verify that there are no VLANs

associated with 3560 Switch A. 3560A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/1, Fa0/2, Fa0/4, Fa0/5 Fa0/6, Fa0/7, Fa0/8, Gi0/1 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active [output cut]

No VLANs! 14. We now need to configure two ports, one for each VLAN by using the switchport access vlan # command. You can only configure VLANs one port at a time. In the

following example, we configure interface 2 to VLAN 2 and interface 8 to VLAN 4. 3560A(config)#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line.

End with CNTL/Z


635

3560A(config)#int fa0/2 3560A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 2 3560A(config-if)#int fa0/8 3560A(config-if)#switchport access vlan 4

15. You must also set the port to be in access mode, which means that the interface will

only be a member of one VLAN. 3560A(config)#int fa0/2 3560A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3560A(config-if)#int fa0/8 3560A(config-if)#switchport mode access 3560A(config-if)#exit 3560A(config)#exit 3560A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration... [OK] 3560A#

16. We can verify what we did with the two ports with the show run command. 3560A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/2 switchport access vlan 2 switchport mode access ! interface FastEthernet0/8 switchport access vlan 4 switchport mode access ! [output cut] 3560A#

Setting Up Trunk Ports Now that we have set up VLANs on both switches, we will now set up trunking, first starting with 3550 Switch A. Trunk links are 100 or 1000 Mbps point-to-point links between two switches, between a switch and router, or between a switch and server. Trunked links carry the traffic of multiple VLANs, from 1 to 1005 at a time. You cannot run trunked links on 10Mbps links, nor would you want to. Remember that an access link is a port on a switch that is a member of only one VLAN.

636


In this network 3560 Switch A is connected to 3550 Switch A via interface Fa0/3 on each device. That is what we are going to use to set our trunk port between the two switches. 17. Move to 3550 Switch A through the console menu.

18. To configure trunking on a 3550 port, use the interface command switchport mode trunk command. In this lab we will set it up for interface Fa0/3. 3550A#config t 3550A(config)#int fa0/3 3550A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation ? dot1q Interface uses only 802.1q trunking encapsulation when trunking isl Interface uses only ISL trunking encapsulation when trunking negotiate Device will negotiate trunking encapsulation with peer on interface 3550A(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q 3550A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk

19. By default, traffic from all VLANs is sent over a trunk link. To change the VLANs permitted to send traffic on a trunk link, use the switchport trunk allowed vlan except # command. The command allows traffic from all VLANs except the VLANs listed.

Earlier we set up VLAN 7; for now we do not want to allow VLAN 7 to send traffic across the trunk link. 3550A(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan except 7

20. The above command sets the trunking interface to allow traffic from all VLANs except

for VLAN 7.


637

21. To verify your trunk ports, use the show running-config command. 3550A(config-if)#exit 3550A(config)#exit 3550A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/3 switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-6,8-1005 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q ! [output cut]

22. Notice in the above output that all VLANs are allowed except for VLAN 7. 23. Move to 3560 Switch A through the console menu. 24. To configure trunking on a 3560 port, use the interface command switchport mode trunk command. In this lab we will configure interface fa0/3. 3560A#config t 3560A(config)#int fa0/3 3560A(config)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q 3560A(config-if)#switchport mode trunk

25. To verify your trunk port, use the show running-config command. 3560A(config-if)#exit 3560A(config)#exit 3560A#show run [output cut] ! interface FastEthernet0/3 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q ! [output cut]

Configuring VTP Domain Every Catalyst switch is configured by default to be a VTP server. To configure VTP, first configure the domain name you want to use, as discussed in the next section. Once you configure the VTP information on a switch, you need to verify the configuration.

638


26. Move to 3550 Switch A through the console menu. 27. Use the vtp global configuration mode command to set this information. In the following example, we explicitly set 3550 Switch A to be a VTP server, which it already is, and then set the VTP domain to routersim. 3550A(config)#vtp mode server Device mode already VTP SERVER. 3550A(config)#vtp domain routersim Changing VTP domain name from NULL to routersim 3550A(config)#

28. After you configure the VTP information, you can verify it with the show vtp status

command. 3550A#show vtp status VTP Version : 2 Configuration Revision : 4 Maximum VLANs supported locally : 64 Number of existing VLANs : 8 VTP Operating Mode : Server VTP Domain Name : routersim VTP Pruning Mode : Disabled VTP V2 Mode : Disabled VTP Traps Generation : Disabled MD5 digest : 0x70 0x01 0xF2 0x72 0x97 0xA1 0x35 0xEB Configuration last modified by: 172.16.10.17 at 11-29-93 20:39:24 Local updater ID is 172.16.10.17 on interface Vl1 (lowest numbered VLAN interface found) 3550A#

The preceding switch output shows the VTP domain and the switch’s mode. 29. Move to 3560 Switch A through the console menu. 30. Set the switch to a VTP client and then set the VTP domain to routersim. 3560A(config)#config t 3560A(config)#vtp mode client Device mode already VTP CLIENT 3560A(config)#vtp domain routersim Changing VTP domain name from NULL to routersim 3560A(config)#exit


639

31. After you configure the VTP information, you can verify it with the show vtp command. 3560A#show vtp status VTP Version Configuration Revision Maximum VLANs supported locally Number of existing VLANs VTP Operating Mode VTP Domain Name VTP Pruning Mode VTP V2 Mode VTP Traps Generation MD5 digest Configuration last modified by: Local updater ID is 172.16.10.3 interface found) 3560A#

: 2 : 3 : 64 : 7 : Client : routersim : Disabled : Disabled : Disabled : 0x70 0x01 0xF2 0x72 0x97 0xA1 0x35 0xEB 172.16.10.3 at 11-29-93 20:39:24 on interface Vl1 (lowest numbered VLAN

The preceding switch output shows the VTP domain and the switch’s mode. 32. VLAN information should now be propagated from 3550 Switch A to 3560 Switch A. Confirm this with the show vlan command. 3560A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports ---- -------------------------------- --------- ------------------------------1 default active Fa0/1, Fa0/4, Fa0/5, Fa0/6, Fa0/7 Gi0/1 2 Sales active Fa0/2 4 Marketing active Fa0/8 7 Research active 1002 fddi-default active 1003 token-ring-default active 1004 fddinet-default active 1005 trnet-default active VLAN 7 will not be allowed to pass any traffic on the trunk link because we issued the command switchport trunk allowed vlan except 7 in step 18.

IntraVLAN and InterVLAN Routing In previous labs we have set up VLANs 2 and 4 for the 3550 and 3560 switches. We will first set up the proper subnetting so that we can place Hosts A and C in VLAN 2 and Hosts B and D in VLAN 4. We will then have you test this by communicating with the VLANs. Then we will set up interVLAN routing so that Hosts from VLANs 2 and 4 can communicate with each other. Network devices in different VLANs cannot communicate with each other without sending traffic through a router. In this lab we will use 2811 A router to perform the 802.1q routing so that we can route traffic between the two VLANs. Two new subnets will be needed. We will use subnets 172.16.20.0/24 and 172.16.30.0/24. Router 2811 A FastEthernet 0/0 interface will stay at 172.16.10.1/24; however, the IP address needs to be moved to a subinterface, which we’ll do in a minute. 33. We should now configure our hosts. VLAN 2 will have a subnet of 172.16.20.0/24

and VLAN 4 will have a subnet of 172.16.30.0/24. We will now change the current IP addresses of the hosts so they are in their proper VLAN. Change the IP addresses and default gateways of the four hosts. Host

IP address unique identification number for a device that is located on a network. An IP address is equivalent to the address of your home. The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be zero to 255. For example, 172.16.10.6 could be an IP address. subnet mask when you split up an IP network it is used to determine what section or subnet the IP address of the networked device belongs to. An IP address has two parts, the network address and the host address. Let us examine IP address 172.16.10.6. Assuming this is part of a Class B network, the first two numbers (172.16) represent the Class B network address, and the second two numbers (10.6) identify a particular host on this network. default gateway IP address configured on a networked device that allows that device to communicate outside of its own subnet. A default gateway is usually a layer 3 device like a router. When a network device wants to get to the Internet, it uses a default gateway. A default gateway IP address is equivalent to the on ramp of a highway. IP Address: 172.16.20.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 172.16.20.1

Once you can ping, you know you have configured both VLANs correctly. At this time, Host B and Host D cannot ping anything else in the network except each other. 45. To have the hosts ping outside their own VLAN, you must setup some type of routing. You

also need to setup a trunk link between the switch and the router. Use the 2811 Router A FastEthernet 0/0 interface and create 802.1q routing. Create three subinterfaces, one for each VLAN. To establish a trunk link between 3550 Switch A and the 2811 router, configure FastEthernet 0/4, on 3550 Switch A as a trunk port with 802.1q encapsulation. 2811A>enable 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#int fa0/0.1 2811A(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 1 2811A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-subif)#int fa0/0.2 2811A(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 2 2811A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.20.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-subif)# int fa0/0.3 2811A(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1q 4 2811A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.30.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-subif)#exit 2811A(config)#exit 2811A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?

When you have finished with this lab ... You can check your work by clicking the Grade Me button in the upper right hand corner of the Network Visualizer screen.

Network Layout On the Network Visualizer screen, click on the Labs menu then choose Individual, 1900 Switch VLANs.


647

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click switch 1900 A to bring up the console screen.

2.

To configure VLANs on the 1900 series switch, choose “k” from the initial user interface menu to get into IOS configuration. Press “k” to enter the CLI mode, and enter global configuration mode using the enable command and then config t. 1 user(s) now active on Management Console. User Interface Menu [M] Menus [K] Command Line Enter Selection: k CLI session with the switch is open. To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].

3.

Use the vtp global configuration mode command to set this information. In the following example, we set the switch to a VTP server and the VTP domain to routersim. A Catalyst is configured by default to be a VTP server, as are all switches. To configure VTP, first configure the domain name you want to use, as discussed in the next section. Once you configure the VTP information on a switch, you need to verify the configuration. Vtp is a protocol used between switches to simplify the management of VLANs. You can make configuration changes on one switch and have those changes automatically communicated to all the other switches in the network. You can designate one switch as the VTP Server and the others as VTP clients. The VTP Server then communicates changes to the VTP clients. 1900A(config)#config t 1900A(config)#vtp ? client VTP client domain Set VTP domain name password Set VTP password pruning VTP pruning server VTP server transparent VTP transparent trap VTP trap 1900A(config)#vtp server 1900A(config)#vtp domain routersim

4.

After you configure the VTP information, you can verify it with the show vtp command. 1900A(config)#exit 1900A#show vtp VTP version: 1

648


Configuration revision: 3 Maximum VLANs supported locally: 1005 Number of existing VLANs: 7 VTP domain name : routersim VTP password : VTP operating mode : Server VTP pruning mode : Disabled VTP traps generation : Enabled Configuration last modified by: 172.16.10.16 at 00-00-0000 00:00:00 1900A#

The preceding switch output shows the VTP domain and the switch’s mode. 5.

To configure VLANs on an IOS-based switch, use the vlan [vlan#] name [vlan name] command. The following will demonstrate how to configure VLANs on the switch by creating three VLANs for three different departments. >en #config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. (config)#hostname 1900A 1900A(config)#vlan 2 name sales 1900A(config)#vlan 3 name marketing 1900A(config)#vlan 4 name mis 1900A(config)#exit

6.

End with CNTL/Z

After you create the VLANs that you want, you can use the show vlan command to see the configured VLANs. However, notice that by default all ports on the switch are in VLAN 1. To change the VLAN associated with a port you need to go to each interface and tell it what VLAN to be a member of. Once the VLANs are created, verify your configuration with the show vlan command. 1900A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports -------------------------------------1 default Enabled 1-12,A,B,AUI 2 sales Enabled 3 marketing Enabled 4 mis Enabled 1002 fddi-default Suspended 1003 token-ring-defau Suspended 1004 fddinet-default Suspended 1005 trnet-default Suspended -------------------------------------[output cut]


7.

649

You can configure each port to be in a VLAN by using the vlan-membership command. You can only configure VLANs one port at a time. In the following example, we configure interface 2 to VLAN 2, interface 4 to VLAN 3, and interface 5 to VLAN 4. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z 1900A(config)#int e0/2 1900A(config-if)#vlan-membership ? dynamic Set VLAN membership type as dynamic static Set VLAN membership type as static 1900A(config-if)#vlan-membership static ? <1-1005> ISL VLAN index 1900A(config-if)#vlan-membership static 2 1900A(config-if)#int e0/4 1900A(config-if)#vlan-membership static 3 1900A(config-if)#int e0/5 1900A(config-if)#vlan-membership static 4 1900A(config-if)#exit 1900A(config)#exit

8.

Now, type show vlan again to see the ports assigned to each VLAN. 1900A#show vlan VLAN Name Status Ports -------------------------------------1 default Enabled 1,3,6-12,A,B,AUI 2 sales Enabled 2 3 marketing Enabled 4 4 mis Enabled 5 1002 fddi-default Suspended 1003 token-ring-defau Suspended 1004 fddinet-default Suspended 1005 trnet-default Suspended -------------------------------------[output cut]

9.

Another command you can use to see the ports assigned to a VLAN is show vlanmembership. Notice that this command shows each port on the switch, which VLAN the port is a member of, and the membership type (static or dynamic). 1900A#show vlan-membership Port VLAN Membership Type ----------------------------1 1 Static 2 2 Static

Configuring Trunk Ports Trunk links are 100 or 1000 Mbps point-to-point links between two switches, between a switch and router, or between a switch and server. Trunked links carry the traffic of multiple VLANs, from 1 to 1005 at a time. You cannot run trunked links on 10Mbps links. trunk port assigned to a port, allowing that port to carry traffic for any or all of the VLANs accessible by a particular switch. It marks frames with special identifying tags (i.e. 802.1Q) as they pass between switches, so each frame can be routed to its intended VLAN. 10. To configure trunking on a FastEthernet port, use the interface command trunk [parameter]. The following switch output shows the trunk configuration on interface

26 to trunk on. 1900A#config t Enter configuration commands, 1900A(config)#int fa0/26 1900A(config-if)#trunk ? auto Set DISL state desirable Set DISL state nonegotiate Set DISL state off Set DISL state on Set DISL state 1900A(config-if)#trunk on

11. The following list describes the different options available when setting a trunk

interface. NN

The interface will become trunk only if the connected device is set to on or desirable


NN

651

If a connected device is either on, desirable, or auto, it will negotiate to become a trunk port. The interface becomes a permanent ISL trunk port and will not negotiate with any attached device. The interface is disabled from running trunking and tries to convert any attached device to be on-trunk as well. The interface becomes a permanent ISL trunk port. It can negotiate with a connected device to convert the link to trunk mode.

12. To verify your trunk ports, use the show trunk command. If you have more than one port trunking and want to see statistics on only one trunk port, you can use the show trunk [port_number] command.

FastEthernet port 0/26 is identified by trunk A and port 0/27 is identified by trunk B. Below we demonstrate how to view the trunk port on interface 26: 1900A#show trunk ? A Trunk A B Trunk B 1900A#show trunk a DISL state: On, Trunking: On, Encapsulation type: ISL

Notice in this output that DISL is on, trunking is on, and ISL is the VLANencapsulation type on trunk links.

Configuring Inter-Switch Link (ISL) Routing To support ISL routing on one FastEthernet 2600 interface, the router’s interface is divided into logical interfaces, one for each VLAN. These are called subinterfaces and Cisco also calls this router-on-a-stick. isl routing in a switched network, it allows you to identify VLAN membership of a frame as it travels between switches. Each of the hosts in their VLAN must use the same subnet addressing. To configure the router-on-a-stick for inter-VLAN routing, you need to complete three steps: NN

Enable ISL trunking on the switch port the router connects to

NN

Enable ISL encapsulation on the router’s subinterface

NN

Assign an IP address to the subinterface and other logical addressing if applicable (IP, for example)

13. To create a subinterface from global configuration mode, choose the FastEthernet interface, a period, and then a number. You will now be in the (config-subif) prompt

for the interface. We will use a 2621 router in this lab. 14. Move to the console screen for 2621 Router A.

652


15. Before we work with a subinterface we need to make sure the main interface of f 0/0 is

up. Then let us go to the subinterface fa0/0.1. Router>enable Router#config t 2621A#hostname 2621A 2621A#(config-if)int fa0/0 2621A(config-if)#no shut 16:27:04 %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet0/0, changed state to up 16:27:04 %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/0, changed state to up 2621A(config-if)#int fa0/0.1 2621A(config-subif)#

16. To configure ISL routing on a subinterface, use the encapsulation isl [vlan-number]

command. You can then assign an IP address to the subinterface. This is a unique subnet and all the hosts on that VLAN should be in that same subnet. 2621A(config-subif)#encapsulation isl 1 2621A(config-subif)#ip address 172.16.10.1 255.255.255.0

Grade Me Before you remove VTP, you might want to click the Grade Me button to check your work. 18. To delete the VTP information configured on a 1900 switch, you must use the delete vtp command. The following switch output shows how to delete the VTP NVRAM

database. 1900A#delete ? nvram NVRAM configuration vtp Reset VTP configuration to defaults 1900A#delete vtp

This command resets the switch with VTP parameters set to factory defaults. All other parameters will be unchanged. Reset system with VTP parameters set to factory defaults, [Y]es or [N]o? Yes Once you type in the command, you will be prompted to set the VTP information back to the factory default configuration.

Individual Lab: Standard IP Access-Lists

653

Individual Lab: Standard IP Access-Lists Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

This lab will have you block access to network 172.16.40.0 from Host F. Access-lists can be tricky because if you do not create your lists correctly, you can bring the network down. In this lab we will need to configure routers, hosts, and switches before we set up access-lists. standard IP access lists uses source addresses for filtering packets. A collection of permit and deny conditions is applied to IP addresses. When you have finished with this lab ...

Clock Rate You do not have to set a clock rate if the DCE side of your connection is a 2811 router. The clock rate for the serial interface is set by default to 2000000. However, you still need to explicitly set the clock rate. In our lab the DCE side of the connection is interface serial 0/1/1 and serial 0/0/1.

Configuring Switches We now need to configure 2950 Switch A and 2960 Switch A. 13. Bring up the console for switch 2950 A.

659

660


14. To set the IP configuration on a 2950 switch, use the ip address command. However,

this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. switch>enable switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z switch(config)#hostname 2950A 2950A(config)#int vlan 1 2950A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.40.2 255.255.255.0 2950A(config-if)#exit 2950A(config)#

15. The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command.

However, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 2950A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.40.1 2950A(config)#exit 2950A#

IP Default-Gateway This is used on devices where no routing information is provided by the router that tells you how to get to the next, directly connected device. It tells us what pathway to use to send packets to the next, directly connected device. In the previous set of commands the ip default-gateway is 172.16.40.1 because that is the IP address of interface f0/0 on A.


661

To change the IP address and default-gateway on the switch, you can either type in new addresses or remove the IP information with the no ip address and no ip defaultgateway commands, at the appropriate configuration prompt. 16. Change to the console so you can work with 2960 Switch A. 17. Configure 2960 Switch A with an IP address and default-gateway. switch>enable switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z switch(config)#hostname 2960A 2960A(config)#int vlan 1 2960A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.50.2 255.255.255.0 2960A(config-if)#exit 2960A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.50.1 2960A(config)#exit 2960A#

18. Close the console screen. 19. Double-click Host F on the network.

662


20. Verify that you can ping to 2950 Switch A and that you can ping Host E from Host F.

663

21. From the Host F menu, bring up the console for A.

22. Create an access-list that blocks access from host F trying to get to network

172.16.40.0. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#access-list 10 deny host 172.16.50.3 2621A(config)#access-list 10 permit any

That’s all were going to do for the list. Remember that IP standard access-lists should be created closest to the destination network, which is why we built that access-list on 2621 Router A. It is directly connected to network 172.16.40.0.

664


23. After creating an access-list for 2621 Router A, we now need to add the access-list to

the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A.

2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#ip access-group 10 in

This applied the access-list 10 to the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A and filtered any incoming packets. 24. Check to see that Host F can no longer ping to 172.16.40.2 and 172.16.40.3. C:\>ping 172.16.40.2 Pinging 172.16.40.2 with 32 bytes of data: Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out. Request timed out.

665

25. If the access-list is correct, all other devices should still be able to reach network

172.16.40.0. Ping from 2621 Router B and verify that you can reach 172.16.40.2 and 172.16.40.3. 2621B#ping 172.16.40.2 Type escape sequence to abort.

Verifying Standard IP Access-Lists Pinging and telneting through the internetwork is a really good way to verify the network and access-lists. However, using the Cisco IOS commands is also a good way to verify the lists. 26. Bring up the console for 2621 Router A and type show access-list to see the list

configured on the router. 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2621A#show access-list Standard IP access list 10 deny 172.16.50.3 permit any 2621A#

27. You can also type either show ip access-list or show access-list 10 to gather specific list

configurations. 2621A#show access-list 10 Standard IP access list 10 deny 172.16.50.3 permit any 2621A#

28. To see which interface has access-lists applied, use the show ip interface command. 2621A#show ip interface [output cut] Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up

666


Internet address is 172.16.20.2/24 Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255 Address determined by setup command MTU is 1514 bytes Helper address is not set Directed broadcast forwarding is disabled Outgoing access list is not set Inbound access list is 10 [output cut]

29. The show running-config is useful to see both the access-list and to verify the inter-

face where the access-list is applied. 2621A#show run [output cut] ! interface Serial0/0 description connection to 2811A ip address 172.16.20.2 255.255.255.0 no ip directed-broadcast ip access-group 10 in ! [output cut]

Applying an Access-List to a VTY Line You will have a difficult time trying to stop users from telnetting into a router because any active port on a router is fair game for VTY access. However, you can use a standard IP access list to control access by placing the access-list on the VTY lines themselves. To perform this function: 30. Create a standard IP access list that permits only the host or hosts you want to be able

to telnet into the routers. 31. Apply the access list to the VTY line with the access-class command.

This lab will have you stop Host F from telnetting into 2621 Router A. 32. Remove the access-list on 2621 Router A. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no access-list 10

33. Remove the access-list on the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A. 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#no ip access-group 10 in


667

You can just type no access-list 10 on to remove the access-list, but you must type the whole command from the interface to remove the list from the interface on the router.

34. Verify that Host F can telnet into 2621 Router A. C:\>telnet 172.16.20.2 Connecting To 172.16.20.2 ... This is 2621 Router A User Access Verification Password: 2621A>

35. Exit from your telnet session. 2621A>exit Connection to host lost. C:\>

36. Connect to 2621 Router A and block Telnet access for Host F, but allow all other

devices to telnet to 2621 Router A. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#access-list 20 deny host 172.16.50.3 2621A(config)#access-list 20 permit any

37. Apply the access-list directly to the VTY lines and not to an interface. 2621A(config)#line vty 0 4 2621A(config-line)#access-class 20 in 2621A(config-line)#ctrl+z 2621A#

38. Verify that Host F can no longer telnet into 2621 Router A. C:\>telnet 172.16.20.2 Connecting To 172.16.20.2 ...Could not open a connection to host: Connect failed C:\>

Clock Rate You do not have to set a clock rate if the DCE side of your connection is a 2811 router. The clock rate for the serial interface is set by default to 2000000. However, on 2621 router you still need to explicitly set the clock rate. In our lab the DCE side of the connection is interface serial 0/1/1 and serial 0/0/1.

Configuring Switches We now need to configure 2950 Switch A and 2960 Switch A. 13. Bring up the console for 2950 Switch A. 14. To set the IP configuration on a 2950 switch, use the ip address command. However,

this is set under the VLAN1 interface, not at global configuration mode like on a 1900 switch. Remember that by default all interfaces are members of VLAN1, which is why the VLAN1 interface is configured by default. switch>enable switch#config t

676


Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z switch(config)#hostname 2950A 2950A(config)#int vlan 1 2950A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.40.2 255.255.255.0 2950A(config-if)#exit 2950A(config)#

15. The default gateway should also be set using the ip default-gateway command. How-

ever, unlike the IP address, this is completed at global configuration mode. 2950A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.40.1 2950A(config)#exit 2950A#

IP Default-Gateway This is used on devices where no routing information is provided by the router that tells you how to get to the next, directly connected device. It tells us what pathway to use to send packets to the next, directly connected device. In the previous set of commands the ip default-gateway is 172.16.40.1 because that is the IP address of interface f0/0 on 2621 Router A.


16. Change to the console so you can work with 2960 Switch A. 17. Configure 2960 Switch A with an IP address and default-gateway. switch>enable switch#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z switch(config)#hostname 2960A 2960A(config)#int vlan 1 2960A(config-if)#ip address 172.16.50.2 255.255.255.0 2960A(config-if)#exit 2960A(config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.50.1 2960A(config)#exit 2960A#

18. Close the console screen and bring up the Host F console. 19. Verify that Host F can now ping 172.16.40.2 and 172.16.40.3. C:\ping 172.16.40.2 Pinging 172.16.40.2 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 172.16.40.2 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Reply from 172.16.40.2 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Reply from 172.16.40.2 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Reply from 172.16.40.2 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Ping Statistics for 172.16.40.2: Packets Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 22ms, Maximum = 23ms, Average = 22ms C:\>ping 172.16.40.3 Pinging 172.16.40.3 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 172.16.40.3 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Reply from 172.16.40.3 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Reply from 172.16.40.3 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Reply from 172.16.40.3 ;bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=254 Ping Statistics for 172.16.40.3: Packets Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 22ms, Maximum = 23ms, Average = 22ms C:\>

20. Create an access-list on 2621 Router A to block telnet access into the 172.16.40.0 net-

work, but still allow Host F to ping Host E. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#access-list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet 2621A(config)#access-list 110 permit ip any any This access-list blocked source address 172.16.50.3 from telneting into 172.16.40.0.

21. Apply this access-list to the serial interface 0/0 of 2621 Router A to filter the packets

coming into the router. 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#ip access-group 110 in 2621A(config-if)#ctrl+z 2621A#

22. Test the access-list by trying to telnet 172.16.40.2 From Host F (remember, you cannot

telnet to a host). All other devices should be able to telnet to 172.16.40.2. C:\>telnet 172.16.40.2 Connecting To 172.16.40.2 ...Could not open a connection to host: Connect failed C:\>

Verifying Extended IP Access-lists We will use the same command as we did to verify the IP Standard Access-lists. Go to 2621 Router A (if you created the list on 2621 Router A) and verify your access list. Remember that ping and telnet are really good tools to verify your network as well. 23. From 2621 Router A, type the show access-list command to see the configured list. 2621A#show access-list Extended IP access list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet permit ip any any 2621A#

24. Use the show access-list 110 command to see only list 110. 2621A#show access-list 110 Extended IP access list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet


679

permit ip any any 2621A#

25. You can also use show ip access-list to see only the IP access-list configured on

your router. 2621A#show ip access-list Extended IP access list 110 deny tcp host 172.16.50.3 172.16.40.0 0.0.0.255 eq telnet permit ip any any 2621A#

26. Verify which interface has an access-list set by using the show ip interface command

on 2621 Router A. 2621A#show ip interface Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up Internet address is 172.16.20.2/24 Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255 Address determined by setup command MTU is 1514 bytes Helper address is not set Directed broadcast forwarding is disabled Outgoing access list is not set Inbound access list is 110 [output cut] 2621A#

Removing Extended IP Access-lists 27. Remove the access-list on 2621 Router A. 2621A#config t 2621A(config)#no access-list 110

28. Remove the access-list on the serial 0/0 interface of 2621 Router A. 2621A(config)#int s0/0 2621A(config-if)#no ip access-group 110 in You can just type no access-list 110 to remove the access-list, but you must type the whole command from the interface to remove the list from the interface on the router.

29. Verify that you have removed the extended IP access-list. 2621A(config)#show run [output cut] ! interface Serial0/0 description connection to 2811A ip address 172.16.20.2 255.255.255.0 no ip directed-broadcast ! [output cut]

Individual Lab: Network Address Translation (NAT) and Port Address Translation When Do You Use NAT? At times NAT decreases the overwhelming amount of Public IP addresses required in your networking environment. And NAT comes in really handy when two companies that have duplicate internal addressing schemes merge. NAT is also great to have around when an organization changes its Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the networking manager doesn’t want to hassle with changing the internal address scheme. Here’s a list of situations when it’s best to have NAT on your side: NN

You need to connect to the Internet and your hosts do not have globally unique IP addresses.

NN

You change to a new ISP that requires you to renumber your network.

NN

You require two Intranets with duplicate addresses to merge. Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Implementing NAT Advantages

Disadvantages

Conserves legally registered addresses

Lab Steps 1.

Double-click 2811 Router A in order to bring up the console screen. Configure Router. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2811A 2811A(config-if)#int s0/0/0 2811A(config-if)#ip address 171.16.10.1 255.255.255.0 2811A(config-if)#no shutdown 2811A(config-if)#exit 2811A(config)#router eigrp 15 2811A(config-router)#network 171.16.0.0 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811A#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]?

Configure 2811 Router B. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2811B 2811B(config-if)#int s0/0/0 2811B(config-if)#ip address 171.16.10.2 255.255.255.0 2811B(config-if)#no shutdown 2811B(config-if)#int fa0/0 2811B(config-if)#ip address 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0 2811B(config-if)#no shutdown 2811B(config-if)#exit 2811B(config)#router eigrp 15 2811B(config-router)#network 171.16.0.0 2811B(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811B(config-router)#no auto-summary 2811B(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811B#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? [enter] Building configuration... [OK] 2811B#


Auto-summary The process of taking subnets like 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 and summarizing them down to their base network class. In the case of 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 the networks are summarized to their Class C base network address of 192.168.10.0/24. Summarization occurs at classful network boundaries. Classful network boundaries occur when one class of networks meet a different class of networks, thus a network boundary. If subnet 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 were crossing over to another router connected by the 10.1.1.0/24 network, the classful network boundary is between the 10.0.0.0/8 and 192.168.10.0/24 networks.

No Auto-summary The process of taking the subnets 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29 and not summarizing them down to their base network class. In the case of 192.168.10.4/30 or 192.168.10.56/29, the networks are never summarized to their Class C base network address of 192.168.10./24 when classful network boundaries are encountered.

6.

Use the console menu to bring up the console screen for 2811 Router D.

7.

Configure 2811 Router D. Router>enable Router#config t Router(config)#hostname 2811D 2811D(config-if)#int fa0/1 2811D(config-if)#ip address 192.168.20.2 255.255.255.0 2811D(config-if)#no shutdown 2811D(config-if)#exit 2811D(config)#router eigrp 15 2811D(config-router)#network 192.168.20.0 2811D(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811D#copy run start Destination filename [startup-config]? [enter] Building configuration... [OK] 2811D#

8.

After you configure Routers, you should be able to ping from router to router. Verify that you can ping from 2811 Router A to 2811 Router D and from 2811 Router D router to 2811 Router A. If you cannot, STOP!, troubleshoot your network. 2811A#ping 192.168.20.2 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.20.2, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/4 ms 2811A# 2811D#ping 171.16.10.1 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 171.16.10.1, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 4/4/4 ms 2811D#

9.

You can also verify your EIGRP routes with the show ip route command. 2811A#show ip route [output cut] 171.16.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets C 171.16.10.0 is directly connected, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.20.0 [90/2172416] via 171.16.10.2, 00:06:07, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.0 [90/2172416] via 171.16.10.2, 00:06:07, Serial0/0/0

Dynamic NAT We will now show you how to configure NAT to translate from real ISP assigned addresses to private addresses so that the inside network can communicate to the Internet. 10. In this step, you’ll configure a dynamic NAT pool on 2811 Router B. Create a pool

of addresses called RouterSim on 2811 Router B. The pool should contain a range of addresses of 171.16.10.50 through 171.16.10.55. 2811B(config)#ip nat pool RouterSim 171.16.10.50 171.16.10.55 net 255.255.255.0

11. Create access-list 1. This list permits traffic from the 192.168.20.0 and 192.168.10.0

network to be translated. 2811B(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 2811B(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255

12. Map the access list to the pool that was created. 2811B(config)#ip nat inside source list 1 pool RouterSim

688


13. Configure f0/0 as an inside NAT interface. 2811B(config)#int f0/0 2811B(config-if)#ip nat inside

14. Configure serial 0/0/0 as an outside NAT interface. 2811B(config-if)#int s0/0/0 2811B(config-if)#ip nat outside

15. Bring up the console for 2811 Router D. Telnet from 2811 Router D to 2811

Router A—do not disconnect. 2811D#telnet 171.16.10.1 Trying 171.16.10.1 ... Open Password required, but none set [Connection to 171.16.10.1 closed by foreign host] 2811D#

We received this message because we did not set up a telnet password on 2811 Router A. 16. Go to 2811 Router A and set up a telnet password. 2811A#config t 2811ARouter(config)#line vty 0 1180 2811ARouter(config-line)#password todd2

Try step 15 again and if you are successful, move on to step 18. 17. Bring up the console for 2811 Router C. Telnet from 2811 Router C to 2811

Router A—do not disconnect. 2811C#telnet 171.16.10.1

18. Go back to 2811 Router A and execute the command show users. (This shows who is

accessing the VTY lines). 2811A#show users Line 0 con 0 2 vty 0 * 3 vty 1 Interface 2811A#

Notice that there is a one-to-one translation. Which means you must have a real IP address for every host that wants to get to the Internet, which is not always possible.


689

19. Leave the session open on 2811 Router A and connect back to 2811 Router B. 20. Bring up the console for 2811 Router B and view your current translations by entering

the show ip nat translation command. You should see something like this: 2811B#show ip nat translations Pro Inside global Inside local --- 171.16.10.50 192.168.20.2 --- 171.16.10.51 192.168.10.2 2811B#

Outside local -----

Outside global -----

Oh my gosh, this really works! Remember that the “inside local is before translation” and the “inside global is after translation”, and how you are known on the Internet. 21. Exit out of the telnet session from 2811 Router D. 22. If you turn on debug ip nat on 2811 Router B and then ping through Router from

2811 Router D, you will see the actual NAT process take place, which will look something like this: 2811B#debug ip nat 2811D#ping 171.16.10.1 2811B# Feb 27 17:16:18.256: NAT*: s=192.168.20.2->171.16.10.52, d=171.16.10.1 [1] Feb 27 17:16:18.260: NAT*: s=171.16.10.1->171.16.10.52, d=192.168.20.2 [1] Do not exit out of the telnet sessions for 2811 Router C and 2811 Router D.

Configuring PAT You will now configure Port Address Translation (PAT) on 2811 Router B. We will use PAT because we don’t want a one-to-one translation, but instead we want to just use one IP address for every user on the network. 23. Terminate the telnet sessions on 2811 Router C and 2811 Router D by using the exit

command. 24. On 2811 Router B, delete the translation table and remove the dynamic NAT pool. 2811B#clear ip nat translation * 2811B#config t 2811B(config)#no ip nat pool RouterSim 171.16.10.50 171.16.10.55 netmask 255.255.255.0 2811B(config)#no ip nat inside source list 1 pool RouterSim

690


25. On 2811 Router B, create a NAT pool with one address called Lammle. The pool

should contain a single address: 171.16.10.100. Enter the command below: 2811B(config)#ip nat pool Lammle 171.16.10.100 171.16.10.100 netmask 255.255.255.0

26. Create access-list 2. It should permit networks 192.168.20.0 and 192.168.10.0 to be

translated. 2811B(config)#access-list 2 permit 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 2811B(config)#access-list 2 permit 192.168.10.0 0.0.0.255

27. Map the access-list 2 to the new pool, allowing PAT to occur by using the overload

command. 2811B(config)#ip nat inside source list 2 pool Lammle overload

28. Bring up the console for 2811 Router D and telnet to 2811 Router A. Then bring up

2811 Router C and telnet to 2811 Router A. 29. From 2811 Router A use the show users command. The output should look something

like this: 2811A>show users Line User 0 con 0 2 vty 0 * 3 vty 1 Interface User 2811A>



Mode

30. From 2811 Router B use the show ip nat translations command. 2811B#show ip nat translations Pro Inside global Inside local tcp 171.16.10.100:1723 192.168.10.2:1723 tcp 171.16.10.100:1723 192.168.20.2:1723 2811B#

Outside global 171.16.10.1:23 171.16.10.1:23

Exit out of the telnet session from 2811 Router D. 31. Also make sure that the debug ip nat command is on 2811 Router B. If you ping from

2811 Router D to 2811 Router A, the output will look like this: 01:12:36: 01:12:36: 01:12:36: 01:12:36: 01:12:36:

Individual Lab: VLSM with Summarization The following lab will have you configure a medium size network into block sizes of 32 (/27) using the EIGRP routing protocol and summarizing the classless boundaries. The switches will not be configured in this lab and they will behave just like hubs. You will configure each router in the lab with the appropriate IP addressing. Enter all commands in lower case. The program’s grading feature expects lower case and may count an answer wrong if it is in upper case.

Routers 2811 A through 2811 E should be configured in the 192.168.10.32/27 network and routers 2811 F through 2811 J will be configured in the 192.168.10.64/27 network. In each network there are four block sizes of four (the WAN links) and two block sizes of eight (the LANs). To connect routers 2811 A and 2811 F across the backbone, we will use the 10.1.1.0/24 network. This is called discontiguous networking because we have one class of network


693

(192.168.10.0) connecting across to the same network address through the 10.0.0.0 network— and this will not work by default. RIPv1 and IGRP can never work in this type of network. In order to use VLSM with discontiguous networking in your network, you must use one the following routing protocols: RIPv2, EIGRP, OSPF or ISIS (these are considered classless routing protocols). This lab will have you use EIGRP as the classless routing protocol. Here is the IP addressing scheme used in this lab for routers 2811 A through 2811 E: (notice how the four block sizes of four, and two block sizes of eight fit in one block size of 32—VLSM network addressing).

Verify Configurations From each router and each host, ping the directly connected neighbor and make sure that it is successful. If not, troubleshoot each problem. Remember, you cannot ping past a directly

connected neighbor until a routing protocol is configured. In addition, use the command show ip route on each router to see the routing table. Only the directly connected networks will show in the routing tables until a routing protocol is configured. In this lab a representative sample of testing connectivity is performed, so not all possibilities are shown. 31.

Configuring EIGRP with Discontiguous Networking You will now configure the classless routing protocol EIGRP on each router. EIGRP is an advanced Distance Vector routing protocol that supports VLSM and discontiguous networks. In addition, it can be used to manually summarize contiguous network boundaries, which is what we have. Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) is a Cisco proprietary hybrid routing protocol. It uses the properties of both distance vector and link state and uses an administrative distance of 90, so it will automatically overwrite RIP (which has a default administrative distance of 120) routes in the routing table. Also, it uses autonomous systems (AS) to create groups of routers that share routing information. The major difference between IGRP and EIGRP is that EIGRP uses three different tables to create a stable routing environment and additionally EIGRP only sends updates when needed, whereas IGRP broadcasts routing table entries every 90 seconds. Remember that although EIGRP is considered a classless routing protocol (which means it sends subnet mask information with each route update), it is configured in a classful manner. What this means is that you turn off all subnet bits and host bits to add each network statement—which is why the network statement is 192.168.10.0, not 192.168.10.32, 192.168.10.36, etc. for each subnet. EIGRP will find the subnets; you don’t type subnets in with the network statement.

704


Router A is directly connected to the 192.168.10.0 network, but also the 10.1.1.0/24 network is directly connected off of F0/0. What is the network statement we will use? Remember, ALL subnet bits and host bits are off! Add EIGRP with AS 10 to each router, using the correct network statement. Also, add the network statement of network 192.168.10.0 under EIGRP 10 for each router, except for routers A and F, which will need the network 10.0.0.0 statement as well. 38. From each router global configuration prompt, add the routing protocol EIGRP

with an AS number of 10: 2811A>en 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#router eigrp 10 2811A(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811A(config-router)#network 10.0.0.0 2811A(config-router)# 2811B>en 2811B#config t 2811B(config)#router eigrp 10 2811B(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811B(config)#auto-summary 2811B(config-router)# 2811C>en 2811C#config t 2811C(config)#router eigrp 10 2811C(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811C(config)#auto-summary 2811C(config-router)# 2811D>en 2811D#config t 2811D(config)#router eigrp 10 2811D(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811D(config)#auto-summary 2811D(config-router)# 2811E>en 2811E#config t 2811E(config)#router eigrp 10 2811E(config-router)#network 192.168.10.0 2811E(config)#auto-summary 2811E(config-router)# 2811F>en 2811F#config t

39. Now that we have added our directly connected networks under EIGRP (remember,

add networks, not subnets!), we need to configure 2811 Router A and 2811 Router F to work using discontiguous networking. Take a look at the routing table of each router and notice that you can see the subnets in the routing table from each contiguous network only (routers A through E and routers F through J). This is because discontiguous networking does not work by default. 2811A(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811A#show ip route 2811F(config-router)#ctrl+z 2811F#show ip route

706


40. We need to add the no auto-summary command to routers 2811 A and 2811 F to have

this work. 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#router eigrp 10 2811A(config-router)#no auto-summary 2811F#config t 2811F(config)#router eigrp 10 2811F(config-router)#no auto-summary

41. Now, let’s take a look at the routing tables of each router and notice that ALL subnets

are now listed in each router’s routing table. 2811J#show ip route [output cut] 10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 1 subnets D 10.1.1.0 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 192.168.10.0/24 is variably subnetted, 12 subnets, 2 masks D 192.168.10.44/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.68/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.32/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 C 192.168.10.76/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/0 C 192.168.10.88/29 is directly connected, FastEthernet0/0 D 192.168.10.36/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.40/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.64/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.48/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.80/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.72/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.56/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.77, 00:12:01, Serial0/0/0

42. This is a small network and the routing tables are manageable.. However, if we had

more routers, our routing tables would be rather large, which takes up memory and router processing parsing the routing table. What can we do to make our routing table smaller, more efficient, yet still keep all our connectivity from end to end? You guessed it! Summarization baby!

Configuring Summarization Now that we have configured the internetwork from end to end using VLSM and discontiguous networking, and EIGRP with the no auto-summary command to support the discontiguous network, it is time to configure summarization.


707

Summarization would be done on the boundaries of each contiguous configured network (routers 2811 A and 2811 F). Summarization is used by EIGRP under the interface configuration using the ip summary-address eigrp 10 network mask command. Before we add the summary commands to routers 2811 A and 2811 F, we need to know what network and mask to add to the summary command. Remember, summary addresses are configured in block sizes, just like subnets. The summary address for 2811 Router A would be 192.168.10.32, since we are starting at subnet 32; however, what is our summary mask? Well, what is the block size of our contiguous networks? Thirty-two (32). What mask provides a block size of 32? A /27, which is 255.255.255.224; this is our summary mask. 43. For the 2811 F configuration, we would start at subnet 192.168.10.64, which is also a

summary mask of /27, since the contiguous networks fit in a block size of 32. Here is our configuration on both routers: 2811A#config t 2811A(config)#int fa0/0 2811A(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 10 192.168.10.32 255.255.255.224 2811F#config t 2811F(config)#int fa0/0 2811F(config-if)#ip summary-address eigrp 10 192.168.10.64 255.255.255.224

At this point, we have disabled automatic summarization under EIGRP since we need to support discontiguous networking. We then configured manual summarization at contiguous classful boundaries.

Verifying Summarization 44. If we take a look at the routing tables now, we can see that 2811 Router A is summa-

rizing the contiguous network with a 192.168.10.32/27 route into the 2811 Router F’s routing tables, which is then sent to the other routers connected to 2811 Router F. 2811F>en 2811F#show ip route [output cut] 192.168.10.0/24 is variably subnetted, 7 subnets, 3 masks C 192.168.10.64/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/1 D 192.168.10.80/29 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.66, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/1 C 192.168.10.68/30 is directly connected, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.72/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.66, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/1 D 192.168.10.76/30 [90/2172416] via 192.168.10.70, 00:05:49, Serial0/0/0 D 192.168.10.32/27 [90/2172416] via 10.1.1.1, 00:05:49, FastEthernet0/0

Our routing tables are smaller, more efficient, and easier for IP to parse.

Net Assessment

Lab 1.1: Introduction to Net Assessment Net Assessment allows you to test and evaluate your problem solving and troubleshooting network skills. We have created a powerful and flexible tool for all to use, including teachers, students, individuals, etc. There are six basic steps in fully utilizing Net Assessment: NN

Load Net Assessment

NN

Load a fully configured network (Master network)

NN

Create a template that allows you to specify the configurations you want to test

NN

Create and distribute test networks that have their configurations altered in some way

NN

Ask others to troubleshoot/problem-solve the network

NN

Evaluate Test network against Master network Net Assessment only works with CCNA networks.

Several options are available to assist you in determining what configurations will be placed in the Test network. It depends on the audience for which the Test network is being created. The following are some examples.

For Instructors Scenario 1 Provide an empty network to students with instructions only. With this program you can insert instructions into a network by importing a file like a Microsoft Word file. Click on the Insert icon on the toolbar. When the dialog box appears select a file that includes instructions. You can embed any file that you wish; however, the student must have the same program on their computer.

Lab 1.1: Introduction to Net Assessment

711

When students open the Test network they will see a document object on the Network Visualizer screen. They double-click the object and the instructions open up. When they create, configure, and save the Test network, they return it to the instructor for evaluation. This program can automatically evaluate the Test network. An instructor would then load the Master network and evaluate Test networks one at a time or all at once. An instructor can also view and/or print results one at a time or all at once. Scenario 2 Provide a partially configured network to students, along with instructions. In this situation, an instructor has manually removed part of the configurations and expects students to problem solve and finish creating a fully configured network. Scenario 3 Provide a fully configured network to students where the program has randomly changed some of the configurations. This is an ideal situation for troubleshooting. An instructor can provide a randomized Test network to students in two different ways: NN

NN

They can choose specific configurations they want the program to randomly change values. They can choose specific configurations they want the program to randomly remove when the Test network is generated.

712

Net Assessment

From the total pool of configurations, have the program randomly change and/or remove a specific number of values. For example, an instructor can indicate they want any five configurations (out of a total of 25 configurations) changed by the program.

For Individuals Individuals can also use Net Assessment to evaluate their skills. You have several options available to you. For example, you can load a Master network and have the program randomly change a specific number of configurations. You would then generate a Test network and try to restore the network with the same values found in the Master network. You can also have the program randomly remove values. You can make it more complex by designating a specific number of values to be randomly changed and a specific number of values to be randomly removed. You will not know what configurations have been altered until you open the Test network. At that point it will not be apparent as to what values have been changed or removed until you go through your Test network. Almost anything in the network that had been originally configured is fair game for being changed by our program. When you have gone through the Test network and corrected any problems, you can compare it with the Master network and evaluate your work. Our Report section will display expected answers and your answers.

Lab 1.2: Making Changes and Inserting Instructions Before you start working with Net Assessment there are two important things that need to be mentioned about making changes to the file. Changes to the Master File Once you have created a Net Assessment template and saved the Master network, you cannot make any changes to the network. So, be sure that you have the network configured the way you want. Making additional changes and saving the Master network will cause the templates to be removed. Inserting Instructions You can insert instructions into the Master network but this needs to be done before you create any Net Assessment templates. Instructions are not required for you to work with Net Assessment, but a convenient way to instruct others as to what to do with a Test network that you generate. Unlike the Master network, you have another

Lab 1.2: Making Changes and Inserting Instructions

713

option with instructions in that you can insert them into a Test network at any time and save the file.

Lab Steps 1.

Use a third-party program to create instructions. This can be a text editor, word processor, html editor, spread sheet program, etc. The important thing to keep in mind is that the person using the Test network must have the same program on their computer that was used to create the instructions. Save the file as you normally would do.

2.

Using this program, load your Master network. There is nothing special about this network and any one will do. Make sure you have fully configured the network and plan no changes.

3.

There are two ways to insert a document. NN

Using the menu, click Insert and then File.

Net Assessment

714

NN

4.

Click the Insert button on the button bar.

Find your instruction file on your computer and then click the Close button on the dialog box. An object will appear on the network with file name of your instruction file.

Lab 1.3: Loading Net Assessment

5.

715

When the user gets the Test network, the network topology will look the same as the Master network. It will also display the instructions object. If they double-click on that object, instructions will display within a few minutes.

Lab 1.3: Loading Net Assessment Net Assessment can be loaded three ways. NN

NN

On any Network Visualizer screen, click on the toolbar button that looks like a paper and pencil.

From any Network Visualizer screen you can click on Tools and then Net Assessment in the drop-down menu.

716

NN

Net Assessment

Right-mouse click on any Network Visualizer screen and select Net Assessment from the pop-up menu.

The Net Assessment screen will appear.

Lab 1.4: Creating a Net Assessment Template

717

Lab 1.4: Creating a Net Assessment Template A fully configured network can potentially have several dozen or hundreds of configurations. If you want to test others on a concept it makes sense to use a manageable number of configurations. You need a way to accomplish this and a template allows you to create a small list of configurations. Selecting items for a template does not change any configuration values in the Master network. It just creates a list of values that you will alter in a future step.

Lab Steps 1.

After the Net Assessment screen appears you will want to load a fully configured network or what we refer to as a Master network. There is nothing special about this network and any one will do. Click on the file folder on the menu or click File menu and then Open.

2.


3.

Click on the file Configured Network.rsm and click Open. You can confirm that you loaded this Master network because the title of the file will be at the top of the Net Assessment screen and also listed as Name of the Master network.

718

Net Assessment

4.

Click the Add button in the section Assessment Template, located in the upper left quadrant of the screen.

5.

The Assessment Template screen will appear. Put a name in for the template you are creating. For this example, enter Scenario1.


719

You can create several templates for the same Master network. Each template can refer to different logical segments of configurations in the network. For example, you could have different templates that test (among others) for:

6.

NN

Passwords

NN

IP addresses

NN

Routing Protocol

NN

Routing Protocol Network

On the Assessment Template screen you will see a list of devices that are in the Master network. In this example you will see an expandable tree for the: NN

2621 A router

NN

2621 B router

NN

2811 A router

NN

3550 A switch

7.

Let’s begin with 3550 Switch A. Eventually we will ping from 3550 Switch A to 2621 Router A. We want to change the ip-default gateway on 3550 Switch A so that you cannot successfully ping. Click on the plus sign (+) next to 3550 Switch A and an expanded list of current configurations for that device will display.

8.

Click on the box IP Default-Gateway so that there is a check mark present.

9.

Click on the plus sign next to 2621 Router B.

10. Click on the plus sign next to Protocols. 11. Click on the plus sign next to RIP.

720

Net Assessment

12. Click on the box Networks so that there is a check mark present. We will eventually

alter the RIP network so that you cannot successfully ping from 2621 Router B to 2621 Router A.

We have now selected configurations from two devices that we will alter so that we can generate a Test network. These configurations will have to be corrected in the Test network in order for a ping to successfully work between 3550 Switch A to 2621 Router A, and from 2621 Router B to 2621 Router A. 13. Click the Save Values button and the Assessment Template screen will close.

14. You will then see a new entry in the Assessment Template field (Scenario1).


721

15. This step is optional and is not required. You can password protect your Master

network. The password prevents others from loading a Master network and making changes. On the upper right hand side of the Net Assessment screen is a password field. Type in a password.

16. Save Your Network. When you click on the Save Values button, the newly created

template is only stored in memory. You will need to save the Master network to permanently store the new template. Click on the Diskette on the menu bar. Then click the Save button and overwrite your existing Master network.

722

Net Assessment

Lab 1.5: Net Assessment— Editing Values After you create a Net Assessment template, you are one step from generating a Test network. In Net Assessment lab 1.4 we create a template called Scenario1 in which a couple configuration types were chosen. Up to this point we have only decided as to the configuration types that will be tested for in the Lab network. We now need to alter some of the configurations. In this lab we will manually alter values; however, other labs in this section provide more sophisticated and automatic ways to alter configurations.

Lab Steps 1.

Make sure that the newly created template is still highligted.

Lab 1.5: Net Assessment—Editing Values

723

2.

Click on the Edit Value button on the top right side of the Net Assessment screen.

3.

On the Edit Values screen you will see a tree-like structure that lists all the devices you chose while creating a template. Actual configuration values (from the Master network) for each chosen configuration will be displayed. You can quickly see all values by the clicking the box at the bottom left position of the screen, titled Expand all values.

724

Net Assessment

Make sure that you only have values in the Edit Values section that you want to alter.

Do not select values for a template that are extraneous. These additional values will be used in the score calculation and skew an accurate assessment. For example, you want to test students on four passwords that will be altered. However, you also have an IP address, mask, and IP default-gateway listed in the Edit Values section. Let’s say that you do nothing to alter these values. When the Test network is evaluated you will receive credit for the correct IP address, mask, and ip default-gateway because these values will not have been altered and will match the Master network values. 4.

Change the RIP network value from 172.16.0.0 to 172.14.0.0.

5.

Change the IP Default-Gateway from 172.16.10.1 to 172.14.10.1 After you make a change in a file the background color changes from white to yellow. This provides feedback to you as to what fields have been altered.

Save Your Network. Click the Save Values button. When you click on the Save Values button, the altered values are only stored in memory. You will need to save the Master network to permanently save these changes. Click on the Diskette on the menu bar. Then click the Save button and overwrite your existing Master network.

Lab 1.6: Net Assessment—Creating A Test Network

725

Lab 1.6: Net Assessment—Creating A Test Network Creating a Test Network is relatively straight forward. If you have first selected an assessment template, you can click the Create Test Network button on the Net Assessment screen. The assumption is that you have already determined how you want to alter values in the creation of a Test network, so you do not have to view the Edit Values screen.

Lab Steps 1.

Make sure that the newly created template is still highlighted.

2.

On the Net Assessment Screen, click the button that says Create Test Network.

726

Net Assessment

A dialog box will appear with a suggested name for the Test network. It will be the name of the Master network plus “_test.rsm”. In the example we have been using, the name of the master file is Configured Network. The suggested file name would be “Configured Network _test.rsm”. However, you can name the Test network anything you wish. 3.

In this case, name it Scenario1 so that the full file name is Scenario1_test.rsm. If you are an instructor you might want to have each student save their Test network with some type of unique identifier when they finishing working on it. For example, you create a Test network called Scenario1_test.rsm. When Bill T. finishes working with his Test network, you have him save it as Billt_Scenario1_test.rsm or perhaps Scenario1_test_Billt.rsm.

Lab 1.7: Net Assessment—Assessing A Test Network One or more Test networks can be evaluated at the same time, against the same Master network.

Lab Steps 1.

Bring up the Net Assessment screen.

2.

After the Net Assessment screen appears, load the Master network. Click on the file folder on the menu or click the File menu and then Open.

Lab 1.7: Net Assessment—Assessing A Test Network

727

3.


4.

Click on the file Configured Network.rsm and click OK. You can confirm that you loaded this Master network because the title of the file will be at the top of the Net Assessment screen and also listed as Name of the Master network.

Click the View button to view a detailed report. You will see a column labelled Expected Answer. Those configurations are derived from the Master network. The column Your Answer are the configurations entered and saved in the Test network. In this example we did not make any changes in the Test network.

Lab 1.8: Advanced Values Editing

729

Lab 1.8: Advanced Values Editing In Net Assessment lab 1.5 we used a straightforward process in editing values so that a Test network could be generated. We had you manually change a couple values. We did that so we could provide a quick and easy to understand method in changing values. However, Net Assessment provides you with more sophisticated and powerful methods in altering values. There are five ways to affect values:

730

Net Assessment

NN

Change a selected value

NN

Randomize a selected value

NN

Remove a selected value

NN

Auto-select and randomize any value(s)

NN

Auto-select and remove any value(s)

The first three options can be performed by the user. The last two options are performed by the program after you select the number of values to be affected. Options Can Be Used Together These options can be used in any combination and are not mutually exclusive. For example, you can manually change a couple values, select a couple other values to be randomly changed by the program, and a couple other values to be removed by the program. The auto-select options can also be used with other options. The following are some examples. Scenario 1 You manually change two values and select three other values to be randomly changed by the program. There will be a total of five values affected when a Test network is created. Scenario 2 You manually change two values, select one value to be randomly changed, and select four other values to be removed when the Test network is generated. There will be a total of seven values affected. Scenario 3 You choose three specific values to be randomly changed by the program. You also use the auto-select option to randomly select and randomly change two additional values. There will be a total of five values affected when a Test network is created. Scenario 4 You use the auto-select options to randomly select and change five values and randomly select and remove five additional values. There will be a total of ten values affected when a Test network is created.

Lab 1.9: Edit Values—Changing A Selected Value You can manually change values so that they appear differently in the Test network. Place your cursor in a field and type in a new value. Fields that you change will display a yellow background. There are also drop down fields that you can change values. For example, you

731

may want to change the VTP Operating mode from Server to Client. Click on the down arrow next to the word Server and a drop down list will appear. Select Client. This option would typically be used by an instructor because if you are an individual testing yourself, you would know what values have been changed.

The following are some examples of how to use this option: Scenario 1 For example, you have an IP address 192.168.1.1 and you want it to appear as 192.168.11.2 in the Test network when it is created. Find the IP Address configuration, place your cursor in the corresponding field containing this value and make the change. Scenario 2 Another use is entering bogus information that you expect the user to remove in the Test network. For example, you have two OSPF networks that the student should enter into the Test network but you don’t want to display them. You can simply manually remove these values. However, in place of these two values you could place two network values that should be removed by the student. Let’s say you have two values from the Master network: OSPF network 192.168.20.4 0.0.0.3 area 0 OSPF network 192.168.40.8 0.0.0.3 area 0

You want two bogus network values in place of these. In those two fields you could substitute the following values: OSPF network 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 area 1 OSPF network 192.168.40.9 0.0.0.4 area 0

The last two values from above will display in the Test network. However, remember that when you compare the Master network with the Test network, it will still have the values of: OSPF network 192.168.20.4 0.0.0.3 area 0 OSPF network 192.168.40.8 0.0.0.3 area 0

If those are not found in the Test network, these are marked as incorrect answers.

During any of these processes the configuration values in the Master network are never changed. Changes are only reflected in the Test network.

Lab 1.10: Edit Values—Randomizing A Selected Value You can select specific values that you want the program to randomly change when the Test network is created. Find the values that you want to randomly change and click the Randomize check box that is to the right of the value. If you are an instructor you may have values that you do not want to manually change every time you create a Test network from a Master network’s Assessment Template. You may prefer, instead, to have the program randomly change specific values every time you create a Test network. In the following example, IP Default-Gateway and VTP Password have been selected to be randomized. The IP Default Gateway may display a value like 192.168.10.15 and the VTP Password might display a value like Cisco when the Test network is generated.

Lab 1.11: Edit Values—Removing A Selected Value

733

This option provides security in the Test networks that you generate for a class. Instead of giving every student the same test, every student can be tested on the same specified configurations but receive a different and random value for each one. You can manually change some values and have the program randomly change others; these two options are not mutually exclusive. During any of these processes the configuration values in the Master network are never changed. Changes are only reflected in the Test network.

If you are testing yourself, you can use this option but you will know beforehand which values are being randomized.

Lab 1.11: Edit Values—Removing A Selected Value You can select specific values that you want the program to remove when the Test network is created. Find the values that you want to remove and click the Remove check box that is to the right of the value. If you are an instructor you may want to test problem solving skills of your students. For example, an access list needs to be created by students in a Test network. You have access list 10 fully configured in the Master network but want to remove some elements like the IP Access Group In and IP Access Group Out configurations. As you see below the Remove checkbox has been selected for these two values. When the Test network is generated these two values will not appear.

You can manually change some values, have the program randomly change others, and select specific values to be removed; these three options are not mutually exclusive and can be used in combination together. During any of these processes the configuration values in the Master network are never changed. Changes are only reflected in the Test network. If you are testing yourself, you can use this option but you will know beforehand which values are being removed.

Lab 1.12: Edit Values—Auto-Selecting and Randomizing Any Value You can have the program randomly select and randomly change any value that displays in the Edit Values screen. Decide how many values you want to randomize and increment the counter to match that number. For example, you may have 20 values that appear in the Values Editor. You can set the counter between 1 and 20. A number of one means that only one of the 20 values will be randomly selected and changed to a random value, by the program. In the following example the counter has been changed to 5. This option is ideal if you are testing yourself. You can set the counter to a specific number and create a Test network. You will not know what values have been altered until you open the Test network. At that point it will not be apparent as to what has changed until you go through your Test network. Almost anything in the network that had been originally configured is fair game for being changed by our program.

You can manually select, randomize, and remove values and still use this auto-select option.

These options are not mutually exclusive and can be used in combination with each other. However, keep in mind that if you use other options such as selecting a few values to be randomly removed, those values will not be in the pool of possible values that will be

changed by this option. During this process the configuration values in the Master network are never changed. Changes are only reflected in the Test network.

Exceeding the Number of Configurations If you set the counter(s) to a number that exceeds the possible number of configurations on the Edit Value screen, the program will not affect more than the total number of configurations on the screen.

Lab 1.13: Edit Values—Auto-Selecting and Removing Any Value You can have the program randomly select and randomly remove any value that displays in the Edit Values screen.

Create Your Own Custom Labs

Lab 1.1: Creating a Custom Lab You can create your own labs. You can then make your labs available for others to use. This involves a three step process: NN

Create and configure a network

NN

Insert instructions

NN

Save your network into the folder Custom Networks and make it available to others

Lab Steps 1.

Open a Network Visualizer screen.

2.

Place the desired devices on the screen.

3.

Connect the devices.

4.

Configure the devices.

5.

Use a third-party program to create instructions. This can be a text editor, word processor, html editor, spread sheet program, etc. The important thing to keep in mind is that the person using labs/networks that you create must have the same program on their computer that was used to create the instructions. Save the file as you normally would do.

You can save your files alphabetically - If you save your files alphabetically, that is how they will be sorted and displayed when presented on the Custom Labs menu. You can save your files with a numbering scheme. You can number your files which will allow you to specify the order of display, regardless of the alphabetical spelling of the file name. For example, let us say you have four network files that are being saved to the custom networks folder. You assign a number to the title of these files in this manner: 10_Cisco IOS 20_Defining and describing a network 30_CLI (command line interface) 40_Configuring an ISR router
