Step 2: Assign host addresses to devices.
What is the subnet address for subnet 0? ______________________________
What is the subnet address for subnet 1? ______________________________
Assign subnet 0 to LAN-A, and assign subnet 1 to LAN-B.
What is the first address in subnet 0? ______________________________
This address is assigned the FastEthernet0/0 interface on Customer Router.
What is the first address in subnet 1? ______________________________
This address is assigned the FastEthernet0/1 interface on Customer Router.
What is the last address in subnet 0? ______________________________
This address is assigned to HostA.
What is the last address in subnet 1? ______________________________
This address is assigned to HostB.
What is the default gateway for HostA? ______________________________
What is the default gateway for HostB? ______________________________
Step 3: Configure devices with IP addressing.
Configure HostA and HostB with IP addressing, including the subnet mask and default gateway.
a. Click HostA. On the Desktop tab, choose IP Configuration. Enter the correct addressing for HostA
according to your answers in Step 1 and Step 2.
b. Click HostB. On the Desktop tab, choose IP Configuration. Enter the correct addressing for HostB
according to your answers in Step 1 and Step 2.
c. Check results. On the Assessment Items tab, your configurations for HostA and HostB should have
green checkmarks. If not, read the provided feedback for a hint on how to correct the problem.
Note: If you cannot see all the feedback, place your mouse pointer over the right side of the Activity
Results window. When the cursor turns into a double-headed arrow, click and drag to resize the
window until you can see all the feedback text.)
Configure the LAN interfaces on Customer Router with IP addresses and a subnet mask.
a. Click Customer Router. Click the Config tab.
b. On the left side under Interface, click FastEthernet0/0. Enter the IP address and subnet mask, and then
set the Port Status to On.
c. On the left side under Interface, click FastEthernet0/1. Enter the IP address and subnet mask, and then
set the Port Status to On.
d. Notice in the Equivalent IOS Commands window that your actions produced actual commands. You
can scroll through the command window. In the next chapter, you will learn how to enter these
commands directly into the router instead of using the Config tab.
For a better view of the commands, you can increase the size of the window. To resize the window,
place your mouse pointer over the bottom border of the window. When the cursor turns into a double-
headed arrow, click and drag.
