SWITCHES AND ROUTERS

For this lab we set up a basic network with a pair of switches, a crossover cable, and enough ethernet cable for all of us!  Started off by getting power to the switches, making the physical connections from the desktops to the switches, then from switch to switch with the crossover cable.  Next we all had to configure are desktops with static ip addresses with the correct subnet of Brads choosing!









After that it was time to ping till our fingers bled!  J/K.

Time to switch to wireless router mode.  No joke.




Your basic D Link router here.  To configure just type in the devices IP address into a web browser, then you  will need to log on to the device.  (Make sure you are using a wired connection to configure.)
Once logged in setting up a DHCP server is simple enough, if you know were to look.
