Topology
Complete the assessment in Packet Tracer and document and fill in the blanks. Submit this file and the pka file in Week 8 Lab 13, Points will not be given for incomplete Steps.
Assessment Objectives
Part 1: Initialize Devices (2 points, 5 minutes)
Part 2: Configure Device Basic Settings (8 points, 20 minutes)
Part 3: Configure PPP Connections (7 points, 20 minutes)
Part 4: Configure NAT (4 points, 15 minutes)
Part 5: Monitor the Network (6 points, 15 minutes)
Part 6: Configure Frame Relay (7 points, 20 minutes)
Part 7: Configure a GRE VPN Tunnel (6 points, 20 minutes)
Scenario
In this Skills Assessment (SA) you will create a small network. You must connect the network devices and configure those devices to support various WAN protocols. This will require that you reload the routers before starting your configuration of the next WAN protocol. The assessment has you save your basic device configurations to flash prior to implementing a WAN protocol to allow you to restore these basic configurations after each reload.
The first WAN protocol you will configure is Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) with CHAP authentication. You will also configure Network Address Translation (NAT), and network monitoring protocols during this phase of the assessment. After your instructor has signed off on this phase, you will reload the routers and configure Frame Relay. After the Frame Relay part is complete, and has been signed off by your instructor, you will reload the routers and configure a GRE VPN tunnel. Network configurations and connectivity will be verified throughout the assessment by using common CLI commands.
