1. Basic Configuration tasks on Switch
For performing the basic switch configuration the hostname of the switch is needed to be
renamed and the DNS lookup is needed to be disabled. The EXEC mode is needed to be entered
and a password is needed to be set for increasing the security of the network device. A password
is also needed to be configured for the console connection and vty connection such that the
configuration cannot be accessed by unauthorized personnel and the configurations are secured.

2. Configuration of Ethernet interfaces on PC1, PC2, PC3, PC4, PC5 and PC6 with
IP address and default gateway
The Ethernet interface of the PC are configured following the IP addressing plan and they
are connected with the right port such they can communicate with the VLAN and send and
receive data packets within the network.

3. Configuration of VTP on the switches
The VTP server is configured on the switch and it have the ability of creation,
modification and deletion of VLANs. The other switch is configured as client such that it can
receive update from the server and the switch S3 is configured as transparent such that the VTP
advertisements can be ignored and modification can be made in the server switch with different
commands such as vtp mode server, vtp domain test and vtp password testpassword.

4. Configuration of VLAN
VLAN is used in a switched network for subnetting the IP address and assign switched
module interface to the VLANs with the use of method. The VLANs are identified by the
number range between 1 to 4094. Among them the ID 1002 to 1005 is reserved for the token ring

5. Configuration of trunk and management interface address on the switches
The trunk port can be used for allowing the switch to negotiate the trunk mode. The port
of the switch configured with trunk converts the link into trunk if the neighbor interface is also
configured with trunk mode. By default all the VLANs are allowed access to the trunk port and
the command “switchport mode trunk” gives control for allowing certain VLAN to access the
trunk port.
5.1. Configuration of trunk and native VLAN on trunk ports
For Switch S1
S1(config)#interface range fa0/1-5
S1(config-if-range)#switchport mode trunk

S1(config-if-range)#no shutdown
S1(config-if-range)#end
For Switch S2

6. Prove of hosts on same VLAN are able to ping each other.
Ping test is performed and it has been found that the PCs connected in the same VLAN
are allowed to successfully ping between each other and the ping between the other VLAN is not
working. This is due to the fact that the inter VAN routing is not enabled in the switch. The
switches can be configured for allowing inter VLAN data packet transmission if the switch port
is configured as trunk. The VLAN trunk allows the switch to communicate between all the
VLANs with the same of the other switches.
