Small Organization Set Up in CISCO Packet Tracer
Small Organization Set Up in CISCO Packet Tracer
Theory:
Cisco Packet Tracer is a tool built by Cisco and it provides network simulation to practice simple
and complex networks. The main purpose of the Cisco Packet Tracer is to help students learn the
principles of networking and demonstrate the networking concepts.
Step 2.: After opening the Cisco Packet tracer, add a router, 4 switches, 6 PCs, and a server to
build a network for a small organization.
Router 1
Switch 4
Server 1
PC 6

4. Database section.
1. 192.168.1.0/24
2. 192.168.2.0/24
3. 192.168.3.0/24
4. 192.168.4.0/24.
Step 3: Connect the router with 4 switches, 3 switches are connected with 2PCs each, and 1
switch is connected with the server using a cable. There are four different networks in this
organization:- 192.168.1.0/24, 192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.3.0/24, and 192.168.4.0/24.
Step 4: Give IP, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server to each PC and server in this
network. To assign IP to each PC and server, click on each PC, go to Desktop, and then click on
IP configuration.
Default
Components IP Address Subnet Mask DNS server
Gateway
Step 5: Now, configure the router according to the details given below and then turn on the port
status.
Step 6: Now, we’ve to maintain the DNS server. For this click on the server, go to the services
section, and then click on DNS. Turn on the DNS server, Enter any domain in the ‘Name’ section
For eg: “www.google.com” enter the IP address of the server in the ‘Address section’, and then
click on save.
Step 7: Again click on the server, go to services, and then click on HTTP. Turn on the HTTP and
HTTPS services. You can also edit the index.html file which will show when you search the
domain you entered in DNS in the web browser.
Step 8: To check the connection between PCs present in different networks in this organization,
you can use the ping command. Click on any PC, go to Desktop, and then click on the command
prompt, enter the ping command, and check if they’re able to communicate with each other.
Step 9: Click on any PC, go to the Desktop section, and then open the web browser. Enter the
domain or address you’ve given in the DNS server and it will show the index.html file from
HTTP services.
