Configuring and Testing Network Devices

The provided content is related to configuring a router using Cisco Packet Tracer and performing various network services configuration tasks, including DHCP, WEB Server, DNS, and Firewall. The assignment involves setting up the router's IP address and routing table, as well as pinging local and remote interfaces and performing a traceroute command to the server. Additionally, the content provides references to several research papers and articles on topics such as Cisco Virtual Internet Routing Lab, packet tracing, and computer networking education.

TCP/IP NETWORKING
Executive Summary
The assignment is related with the development of a network and two routers are used for the
configuration. The configuration is made on cisco packet tracer and two routers are used for simulation
of the software. The routers are configured in the network with the appropriate protocol for meeting
the requirement of the assignment. Multiple network interface are used for configuring the network and
client PC and the server are connected with the different interface of the router. The screenshots of the
configuration of the router is given in the report. The DNS and the Web server is configured with the
student name and the router 0 is configures with access control list for blocking a client to access the
web server. The connectivity of network is checked by pinging to the different interface of the router.
