IFT 166 Introduction to Internet Networking Lab 7 Peer-to-Peer, Hub & Switch based LANs After you complete each step, put a ‘√’ or ‘x’ in the completed box Build a Peer-to-Peer Network Objectives: create a simple peer-to-peer network. Identify the proper cable to connect the two PCs. Configure workstation IP address information. Test connectivity using the Ping command. 1. Setup the following topology What type of cable did you use for the connection and why? I used copper cross-over, which is used to connect two devices of the same type (like two computers). 2. Configure the PCs with the following IP address information 3. 4. All machines on the same LAN should share the same network portion 5. You do not need the default gateway IP address as these computers are directly connected. You only need the default gateway on LANs that are connected to a router 6. Confirm your TCP/IP network settings via ipconfig command 7. Verify that the PCs can communicate via the ping command
Build a Hub Based Network Objectives: create a simple network with 2 PCs using a hub. Identify the proper cable to connect the two PCs to the hub. Configure workstation IP address information. Test connectivity using the Ping command. 1. Setup the following topology What type of cable did you use for the connections and why? I used copper straight throughs, which are used to connect two devices that operate at different layers of a network model. These cables ensure that the correct signals are transmitted and received between the devices. 2. Configure the PCs with the following IP address information 3. 4. Confirm your TCP/IP network settings via ipconfig command 5. Verify that the PCs can communicate via the ping command
Build a Switch Based Network Objectives: create a simple network with 2 PCs using a switch. Identify the proper cable to connect the two PCs to the Switch. Configure workstation IP address information. Test connectivity using the Ping command. 1. Setup the following topology What type of cable did you use for the connections and why? I used the copper straight through cables. Similar to using a hub, the straight through cables allow the different devices to communicate seamlessly since they operate on different layers. 2. Configure the PCs with the following IP address information 3. 4. Confirm your TCP/IP network settings via ipconfig command 5. Verify that the PCs can communicate via the ping command

Final Scenario 1. Setup the following star topology network. PC0: 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 PC1: 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0 PC2: 192.168.0.3 255.255.255.0 PC3: 192.168.0.4 255.255.255.0 2. Run simulation to show how the packet travels from PC0 to PC3.
