LAB 2

CONFIGURING NETWORK CONNECTIONS

THIS LAB CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING EXERCISES AND ACTIVITIES:


Exercise 2.1 Exercise 2.2 Exercise 2.3 Exercise 2.4 Lab Challenge Troubleshooting Network Connectivity Configuring IPv6 Troubleshooting Name Resolution Problems Looking at Network Statistics and Port Usage Configure Network Card Settings

Exercise 2.1
Overview

Troubleshooting Network Connectivity


Because the lab network you are constructing for Contoso Ltd. must be isolated from the production network, you do not want the lab computers to obtain their TCP/IP settings from the DHCP servers on the production network. Therefore, you must configure the TCP/IP client to use static IP addresses. In addition, you will be working with a partner where one of you is assigned a student number that is an odd number while the other is assigned a student number that is an even number. 20 minutes

Completion time

Table 2-3
TCP/IP Setting IPv4 address192.168.154.236ipconfig Subnet mask255.255.255.0 Default gateway192.168.154.1 DNS servers192.168.154.10 / 192.168.154.12 Value

Question 1

How did the computer obtain these settings? How can you determine this? Manually

Questio n2

If you have an address handed out by a DHCP server and it appears to be the wrong IP configuration, what are the two things you should check? Connections and the DHCP Server.

17. Take a screen shot of the Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties sheet by pressing Alt+Prt Scr, and then paste the resulting image into the lab02_worksheet file in the page provided by pressing Ctrl+V.

Question 3

When troubleshooting any network connectivity problem, what command should you execute first in determining the problem? ipconfig

Questio n4

What command should you use to verify that your TCP/IP stack is running properly? ipconfig /all

Questio n5

What command would you use to test network connectivity with your partners computer? Ping

Questio n6

If you ping your partners computer by IP address, what does this tell you about your network connectivity and what does it

not tell you about your network connectivity? It Tells you if your partner is connected to the network and not yours.

Questio n7

Were you able to ping your partners computer? If not, why could you not ping the computer? Yes.

Questio n8

Were you able to ping your partners computer? If not, why could you not ping the computer? Yes

Questio n9

Can you ping your DNS server? If not, why could you not ping the DNS server? Yes

Questio n 10

So if you could not access a DNS server, how were you able to resolve your partners computer address when you pinged it by name? DHCP

Questio n 11

If you are trying to verify network connectivity with a computer on a remote host what is the next logical command to test network connectivity that you should execute? Ping the name

Questio n 12

Can you ping your partners computer? If not, why not? Yes

Questio n 13

Can you ping any other computers in the classroom? Yes

Questio n 14

What information does the ipconfig show? The computers configuration, ip address, default gateway, subnetmask, and DNS.

Questio n 15

Your network card most likely has two LEDs. What does each LED show? Intel PRO/1000 MT

Exercise 2.2
Overview Completion time

Configuring IPv6
Because IPv6 will grow in popularity and eventually replace IPv4, you need to know how to configure IPv6 settings. 10 minutes

What is the IPv6 and Link-local IPv6 address?

Question 16

IPv6: 2001:db8::2aa:ff:f328:9c01 Link-Local IPv6: fe80::e85b:7f79:f2e7:d786%11

Question 17

What is the IPv6 and Link-local IPv6 address of your partners computer in the lab? IPv6: Link-Local IPv6:

Question 18

Now that IPv4 and IPv6 are running on the same computer, what option do you need to add to the ping command to ping your partners computer using IPv4? Subnet mask

Exercise 2.3
Overview Completion time

Troubleshooting Name Resolution Problems


During this part of the lesson, you will be troubleshooting name resolution problems. 10 minutes

Questio n 19

What is the address of your computer? 192.168.154.180

Questio n 20

What is the address of the DNS server? 192.168.154.13

Questio n 21

What is the address of the DNS server? 192.168.154.13

Questio n 22

What is the name of the computer at 10.10.0.2? Sever01.engineering.local

Questio n 23

What command would you use to determine the address of your partners computer? Nslookup my partners address

Questi on 24

What address was used for rwdc01? 192.168.154.13

Questi on 25

So why did the nslookup not use the host file? Its not programmed to find host files.

Questi on 26

If someone makes a change on the DNS server and you need to clear the DNS cache so that it can get the new setting, what command would you use? DNS clear cache

Questi on 27

If you change an IP address, what command would you use to register the new IP address with the DNS server? Ipconfig /registerdns

Exercise 2.4
Overview

Looking at Network Statistics and Port Usage


When troubleshooting IP connectivity problems, there are several powerful commands that can show you what is going on with a computer connected to the network. 10 minutes

Completion time

Questi on 28

What command would you use to display all connections and ports used? Ipconfig /all

Questi

What option would you use with the netstat command to

on 29

display all executables and the listening port associated with those executables? netstat -b

Questi on 30

Is there an advantage to running either of these commands? Yes, it tells you every detail about the computer.

LAB CHALLENGE: CONFIGURE NETWORK CARD SETTINGS


Completion time 10 minutes

From time to time, a network connection does not connect correctly and you have to force the network adapter to use either full duplex or half duplex, or you may need to force it to run at a certain speed such as 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps. Therefore, what are the exact steps you would have to perform to make these changes?
