In Cisco exams, they test you on two things:

• Theoretical knowledge: you need to understand how certain networking protocols work.
• Practical knowledge: they ask questions about configurations, commands, and the output of
commands.

This means you have to do two things:

• Study theory: we need to learn about different networking protocols that we use on routers and
switches.
• Labs: we need to configure routers and switches. Learn the different commands and outputs.

Basics of Networking:
What is a network?

• A network is a collection of devices and end systems connected to each other and able to
communicate with each other. These could be computers, servers, smartphones, routers etc.
• A network could be as large as the internet or as small as your two computers at home like
sharing files and a printer.
• When the devices which are connected together share data and resources is known as network.

Some of the components that make up a network:

• Personal Computers (PC): These are the endpoint of your network, sending and receiving data.
• Network Cards: they translate data from your computer in a readable format for the network.it
is also known as NIC (Network interface card).

• Media Cables and connectors: network cables, perhaps wireless, Connectors: the plug you plug
in your network card, RJ 45 is common for Ethernet cable.

• Routers: Routers interconnect networks and choose the best path to each network Destination.

Some Command Prompt for CCNA :

• ping :- packet internet gopher it uses icmp ( internet control message protocol) protocol
• For verification the other device is reachable to me or not ??
• ipconfig :- to check the IP address of a computer
• ipconfig /all :- to check the IP address + mac address
• getmac :- to check the mac address of a computer
• arp -a :- to check arp table
• arp –d :- to delete arp table ( run as administrator)
• To check public IP

Visit: - www.whatismyipaddress.com to check your public IP or type in google what is my IP we will get.

How To assign address to your PC ?

• windows button + R
• type ncpa.cpl to go to your network connections
• choose your lan adapter and go to properties and click on IPV4
• Assign Ip address

Hub:

• Known as Dummy Device.

• Always do broadcast.
• Layer 1 device.
• Shared bandwidth.
• Less no of ports.
• Doesn’t learn mac address.

SWITCH

• Which connects two or more computers together?

• Many no of ports.
• Learn mac address.
• Two types of switch Manageable switch and unmanageable switch.
• It is a Layer 2 Device.

In this course we are going to use the following software as given below:

1. Packet Tracer.
2. GNS3.
3. EVE ng.

Packet Tracer:

• Packet Tracer is a cross-platform visual simulation tool designed by Cisco Systems that allows
users to create network topologies and imitate modern computer networks.
• The software allows users to simulate the configuration of Cisco routers and switches using a
simulated command line interface.

• The software allows users to simulate the configuration of Cisco routers and switches using a
simulated command line interface.
• Packet Tracer makes use of a drag and drop user interface, allowing users to add and remove
simulated network devices as they see fit.
• The software is mainly focused towards Certified Cisco Network Associate Academy students as
an educational tool for helping them learn fundamental CCNA concepts.

GNS3:-

• Graphical Network Simulator-3 is a network software emulator first released in 2008.

• It allows the combination of virtual and real devices, used to simulate complex networks.
• It uses Dynamips emulation software to simulate Cisco IOS.
• GNS3 is used by many large companies including Exxon, Walmart, AT&T and NASA, and is also
popular for preparation of network professional certification exams
