Steps:
1. Connect the 2 devices together with a crossover cable
2. Give PC 1 an Ip address of 192.168.1.2
Give PC2 an IP address of 192.168.1.3
3. Open up the command prompt from PC1 and Ping 192.168.1.3
4. There should be 4 outputs that display.

Task 1: Complete the Topology
Add a PC to the workspace. Configure it the following parameters: IP Address 172.16.1.2, Subnet Mask 255.255.0.0, Default Gateway 172.16.255.254, DNS Server 192.168.254.254, Display Name "1B" (do not include the quotation marks). Connect PC 1B to the Fa0/2 port of the S1-Central Switch and check your work with the Check Results button to see that the topology is complete.
Task 2: Add Simple PDUs in Realtime Mode
Wait until the switch link lights are green. Using the Add Simple PDU, send a test message between PC 1B and Eagle Server. Note that this packet will appear in the lower right as a user created PDU that can be manipulated for testing purposes. The first time you issue this one-shot ping message, it will show as Failed--this is because of the ARP process, which will be explained later. Double clicking the "Fire" button in the PDU List Window, send this single test ping a second time. This time it will be successful. Please do this prior to the next task.
Task 3: Analyze PDUs in Simulation Mode (Packet Tracing)
Switch to simulation mode. Use the Capture / Forward button to move the packet through the network. Click on the packet envelope, or on the colored square in the Info column of the Event List, to examine the packet at each step in its journey.
Task 4: Experiment with the model of the standard lab setup
The standard lab setup will consist of two routers, one switch, one server, and two PCs. Each of these devices is pre-configured. Try creating different combinations of test packets and analyzing their journey through the network.
