TCP/IP Networking Project - Network Configuration and Service Setup

This project report details the configuration and implementation of a TCP/IP network using Cisco Packet Tracer. The project is divided into two main tasks: setting up the network and configuring network services. Task 1 focuses on configuring PCs, servers (including DNS and Web servers), and routers. Screenshots illustrate IP address allocation, routing configurations, and ping tests to verify connectivity across the network. Task 2 covers the configuration of DHCP for automatic IP assignment, the setup of a Web and DNS server, and the implementation of a firewall using access control lists to restrict access to the web server. The report includes commands, screenshots, and a bibliography of relevant sources.

The above screenshot demonstrates the configuration of the serial interface port in Router 1
with the IP address and its interface is connected with the Router 0.
The above screenshot demonstrates the configuration of the fast Ethernet port in Router 1
with the IP address and its interface is connected with the Switch 1.
Commands of routing configuration on both the routers
Router 0
Router>enable
Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#ip route 10.20.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.0.2
Router(config)#exit
Router 1

Router>enable
Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.0.1
Router(config)#exit
Screenshot of Pinging own network interface from the client PC
The ping command is used in the PC0 for testing the connectivity in the network. Here the
own interface of the PC is tested for sending data packets in the network.

Screenshot of Pinging local router gateway interface
In the above screenshot the PC0 pings with IP address used for the configuration of the fast
Ethernet port on the local router for testing the connectivity of the link.
Screenshot of Pinging remote router interface from the client PC
In the above screenshot the PC0 pings with IP address used for the configuration of the serial
interface of Router 1 for testing the connectivity of the link.

TCP/IP NETWORKING
In the above screenshot the PC0 pings with IP address used for the configuration of the fast
Ethernet interface of Router 1 for testing the connectivity of the link.
Screenshot of pinging to server
In the above screenshot the PC0 pings with IP address used for the configuration of the
DHCP servers connected with the switch 1 for testing the connectivity of the link.

TCP/IP NETWORKING
In the above screenshot the PC0 pings with IP address used for the configuration of the DNS
and WEB server connected with the switch 1 for testing the connectivity of the link.
Screenshot of Traceroute from client to Server
The above screenshot demonstrates the number of hop address used in the network to reach
the destination address in the network.

Task 2 –Network Service Configuration
1. DHCP
The above screenshot demonstrates the configuration of the DHCP server with a range of IP
address used for automatically assigning the IP address to the host connected in the network.
