A Simple Network Using RIP Protocol vLab (15 points)
Write a paragraph (minimum five college-level sentences) below that summarizes what was accomplished in this lab, what you learned by performing it, how it relates to this week’s TCO’s and other course material; and just as important, how you feel it will benefit you in your academic and professional career. (7 points)
In this lab I was able to set up hostnames and passwords for 3 routers. I learned about Administrative Routing and how the router with the best path routes information. I was able to send some static routes aswell. I learned about how clockwork affects the amount of data that is able to be sent and received. This was the first lab where I felt comfortable not reading all of the instructions and was able to input more than half of the information on my own!

Copy and Paste the following screenshots from your A Simple Network Using RIP Protocol lab below.
Task 2, Step 3: Paste a screenshot showing the sequence of commands that you used to configure the interfaces on the NYEDGE1 router. (1 point)

Question: Which interface has a clock rate configured on it? Why does that particular interface need a clock and none of the others do?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)

10.33.0.2 has the clockrate configured to it. It depends on the router and the interface. Some routers need it while others do not. This is a data generating capability of a device. The higher the clockrate, (128000) the slower the process is.

Task 2, Step 4: Paste a screenshot showing the sequence of commands that you used to configure rip routing on the NYEDGE1 router. (1 point)

Question: What networks are directly connected to the NYEDGE1 router? It appears that there are three directly connected networks, so why is there only one “network” command used when configuring routing on this router?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)
There is a host network that is linked with the other routers. This means that commands inputted on the host router connect to the other ones.
Task 4, Step 1: Paste a screenshot showing all of the commands that you used to configure the host name and passwords on the router. (1 point)

Question: What access is being password protected by the three passwords that were defined within the command sequence?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)
Task 5, Step 1: Paste a screenshot showing the route table on NYEDGE1. (1 point)

Question: Which network can be accessed by two paths? Why?

Floating Static Routes for Network Redundancy vLab (15 points)
Write a paragraph (minimum five college-level sentences) below that summarizes what was accomplished in this lab, what you learned by performing it, how it relates to this week’s TCO’s and other course material; and just as important, how you feel it will benefit you in your academic and professional career. (7 points)
Copy and Paste the following screenshots from your Floating Static Routes for Network Redundancy lab below.
Task 4, Step 1: Paste a screenshot AFTER you enter all of the static routes on the NYEDGE1 router. (1 point)

Question: What is the significance of the “250” at the end of the one static route?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)

Screenshot: Task 4, Step 2: Paste a screenshot AFTER you enter all of the static routes on the NYEDGE2 router. (1 point)

Question: You now have two default routes. What keeps the router from installing both of them into the route table? Under what condition will the 192.168.5.1 path be installed in the route table?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)
One is the primary host and is the one that will be put into the routing table. The only way 192.168.5.1 would be installed into the route table is if it is added via static route.

Task 4 Step 3: Paste a screenshot AFTER you enter all of the static routes on the NYWAN1 router. (1 point)

Question: What is the definition of “Administrative Distance” and how is it used in routing? What is the administrative distance for the two routes that you just entered?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)
Administrative Distance is what is used when there are two routers. The router with the best / closest path is chosen.

Task 5 step 1: Paste a screenshot after you have executed the “show ip route” command on NYEDGE1. (1 point)

Question: You configured three static routes on NYEDGE1. However, there are only two listed in the route table. Why?
*Hint* Read and study the explanations within the lab for assistance. (1 point)
