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
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
Question 16
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

Questio n 23
What command would you use to determine the address of your partners computer? Nslookup my partners address
Questi on 24
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

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