Cisco Network Configuration and Services

This assignment details the configuration of a basic Cisco network using routers (Router1 and Router2) connected to PCs. Tasks include tracing PC routes, setting up DHCP servers, configuring a web server, DNS, and implementing firewall rules for blocking TCP traffic. The solution provides step-by-step instructions and screenshots demonstrating each configuration process.

Configuration on Server
To set the IP address for server by using the below steps.
Click server. Select the Desktop and click the IP configuration.
After enter the IP address is 192.168.1.9
Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
Default gateway is 192.168.1.1

2. Routing Configuration
In Router1
Enter the IP route as ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.0 (Network basics, 2014).
10

In Router2
Enter the IP route as ip route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.0.

3. Ping
To Ping the client by using the below command in the command prompt.
12

Here pinging the Server PC - 1 by enter the below command.
13

14

4. Trace route command
The trace route command using the tracert utility to identify the network problems.
The trace command is shown below.
It tracing the route to 192.168.1.3. It is shown below (Lewis, n.d.).
15

16

Here tracing the PC to 192.168.2.4. It is shown below.
Task – 2 Network Services
1. DHCP configuration
In Router1,
To configure the DHCP by typing the below command (NETworking, 2013).

2. Web server
The web server configuration is shown below.
3. DNS Configuration
To configure the DNS server by right click the server, Click the services and choose the
DNS.
In DNS wizard,
Click the DNS service on.
Enter the DNS name as Sandeep.csu.edu.au
Address as 192.168.1.1
Finally, the save the DNS server.
