Log in to the the devices
In GNS3 topology right click on each network device and select Console. It will open your device console screen on a putty.
Initial Configurations
Before configuring the devices for the network setup. Let's configure some initial settings in the Core Network Devices.
Press the Enter key to go to the user mode of the FAC1 switch. Prompt will look as follows.
FAC1#
In this privileged mode, you can check the router configuration by the following command. The configuration you see will be the default configuration
FAC1#show run
To add configurations you have to go configuration mode. Type config terminal. Note the prompt change.
FAC1(config)#
note: If you get following error,
%Error opening tftp://255.255.255.255/AccessRt-confg (Timed out)
Give the following command in the config mode,
no service config
You can now start making configurations.
- The first thing you have to add is the hostname of the device. The hostname is the device's identification. In this Lab, device name or the hostname is automatically configured based on the GUI edits we did previously. If you want to change it you may use
hostname <device name>
- Then let's give a enable secret. Which is a password you set when you go to the privileged mode from the user mode? We will use the <class password> as the enable secret
enable secret <class password>
- Add the DNS server
ip name-server 192.248.1.161
In your production environment you may use your internal DNS resolver if needed.
- Next, you can add a banner to your device. This will display every time you log in to the device
banner motd @ Unauthorized Access is Prohibited! @
- Add more security by encrypting passwords in your config file
service password-encryption
- Then lets's configure the line console which are the console port settings
- Go to line console config mode
line console 0
- Enable login authentication. Make sure not to save or exit the router after this command without executing the next command.
login
- Set the password
password <class password>
- Go to line console config mode
- Finally let's enable ssh (version 2) in the device. Type exit to go back to previous mode (config mode) from line console config mode
- Configure a domain name. Use instXY.ac.lk for this lab where XY is your group id.
ip domain name instXY.ac.lk
- Create an ssh user with a password. In here we will use the username admin with the class password
username admin secret <class password>
- Create a certificate which will use for encryption
crypto key generate rsa
- Give the size of key as 768 (minimum size needed to activate ssh version 2)
- Then Configure the line vty
line vty 0 4 login local transport input ssh
- Configure a domain name. Use instXY.ac.lk for this lab where XY is your group id.
- Now save the configurations. you have to Go to privileged mode and give the following command
#copy running-config startup-config
- Check the configuration by show run command.
Apply these settings in FAC2 and FAC1-BLD1-FL2 as well
Core Network Layer
Let's start Configuring the connectivity between the core network (FAC1 and Fac2). We will start with Fac1.
- Remember, the core network runs on routed ports. Get the IP from the table
- Link to Firewall
FAC1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/1 FAC1(config-if)# description Link to Firewall FAC1(config-if)# ip address 10.XY.0.1 255.255.255.252 FAC1(config-if)#ipv6 address 2401:dd00:20XY:1::fffe/128 FAC1(config-if)#no shutdown FAC1(config-if)#exit
- Link to FAC2
FAC1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/0 FAC1(config-if)# description Link to FAC2 FAC1(config-if)# ip address 10.XY.0.6 255.255.255.252 FAC1(config-if)#ipv6 address 2401:dd00:20XY:2::ffff/128 FAC1(config-if)#no shutdown FAC1(config-if)#exit
- On switch FAC2 we have only one routed port. Get the IP from the table
- Link to FAC1
FAC2(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/1 FAC2(config-if)# description Link to FAC1 FAC2(config-if)# ip address 10.XY.0.5 255.255.255.252 FAC2(config-if)#ipv6 address 2401:dd00:20XY:2::fffe/128 FAC2(config-if)#no shutdown FAC2(config-if)#exit
- Next, we need to configure routing among Core devices. We will configure dynamic routing / OSPF to distribute routing.
- On FAC1, Define OSPF process and Process ID. In this lab use process ID as 1
FAC1(config)#ip routing FAC1(config)#router ospf 1
- Give the router ID
FAC1(config-router)#router-id 10.XY.2.1
- You are announcing to the default route via FAC1. Use this command for this
FAC1config-router)#default-information originate FAC1(config-router)#exit
- Now you have enable OSPF on FAC1 Switch. Now lets add the default Route.
FAC1(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.XY.0.2
- On FAC1, Define OSPF process and Process ID. In this lab use process ID as 1
- Now let's enable routing for IPv6.
FAC1(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing
- Create a OSPF v3 instance, Define OSPF process and Process ID. In this lab use process ID as 1
FAC1(config)#ipv6 router ospf 1
- Give the router ID, this will be the same as ipv4 ospf router ID for simplicity
FAC1(config-rtr)#router-id 10.XY.2.1
- You are going to originate the default route too. Use this command for that,
FAC1(config-rtr)#default-information originate FAC1(config-rtr)#exit
- Create the default route
FAC1(config)ipv6 route ::/0 2401:DD00:20XY:1::FFFF
- Create a OSPF v3 instance, Define OSPF process and Process ID. In this lab use process ID as 1
- Assign ospf to Ports on FAC1
FAC1(config)#int fa 0/0 FAC1(config-if)#ip ospf 1 area 2 FAC1(config-if)#ipv6 ospf 1 area 2 FAC1(config-if)#exit
- Configure routing on FAC2
FAC2(config)#ip routing FAC2(config)#router ospf 1 FAC2(config-router)#router-id 10.XY.3.1 FAC2(config-router)#exit FAC2(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.0.6 FAC1(config)# ipv6 unicast-routing FAC1(config)#ipv6 router ospf 1 FAC2(config-rtr)#router-id 10.XY.3.1 FAC2(config-rtr)#exit FAC2(config)#int fa 0/1 FAC2(config-if)#ip ospf 1 area 2 FAC2(config-if)#ipv6 ospf 1 area 2 FAC2(config-if)#exit
VLAN Structure
Now we need to create VLANs in each L3 device and configure inter-VLAN routing. We will start with FAC1.
VLANs for FAC1
| FAC1 | VLAN Name | IPv4 | IPv6 |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLAN02 | FAC1_MGT | 10.XY.02.1 | - |
| VLAN05 | Servers | 10.XY.05.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:5::FFFF/64 |
| VLAN10 | Dept1 | 10.XY.10.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:1110::FFFF/64 |
| VLAN20 | Dept2 | 10.XY.20.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:1120::FFFF/64 |
| VLAN30 | Dept3 | 10.XY.30.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:1230::FFFF/64 |
- First Create VLANs and provide a suitable description.
Fac1(config)# vlan 2 Fac1(config-vlan)# name FAC1_MGT Fac1(config-vlan)# exit
Repeat the same for other VLAN's as well.
- Then we need to create vlan interfaces and assign routing.
Fac1(config)# interface vlan 2 Fac1(config-if)# ip address 10.XY.2.1 255.255.255.0 Fac1(config-if)# ip ospf 1 area 2 Fac1(config-if)# exit
Following illustrates the dual stack connectivity.
Fac1(config)# interface vlan 5 Fac1(config-if)# ip address 10.XY.5.254 255.255.255.0 Fac1(config-if)# ip ospf 1 area 2 Fac1(config-if)# ipv6 address 2401:DD00:20XY:5::FFFF/64 Fac1(config-if)# ipv6 ospf 1 area 2 Fac1(config-if)# exit
- Continue same for the VLAN 10, 20 and 30.
VLANs for FAC2
- Configure above same configurations on FAC2 switch for the following VLAN data
| FAC2 | VLAN Name | IPv4 | IPv6 |
|---|---|---|---|
| VLAN03 | FAC2_MGT | 10.XY.03.1 | - |
| VLAN60 | Dept4 | 10.XY.60.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:2160::FFFF/64 |
| VLAN70 | Dept5 | 10.XY.70.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:2270::FFFF/64 |
| VLAN80 | Dept6 | 10.XY.80.254 | 2401:DD00:20XY:2280::FFFF/64 |
Assign Interfaces
On L3 devices we can have three types of links,
- L3 routed ports
- Trunk ports
- L2 Access Ports
We have already configured routed ports and now we need to assign ports to our VLAN's created above.
- Create Trunk Ports,
- First make the interface a trunk port. This is for the link between FAC1 and Building 1
FAC1(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/0 FAC1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
- Define the encapsulation
FAC1(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
- Give the Description of the interface
FAC1(config-if)#description link to Building 1 FAC1(config-if)#exit
- Allow the VLAN's that we only need.
- Change the Native VLAN
- First make the interface a trunk port. This is for the link between FAC1 and Building 1
Do the same for the other trunk link
FAC1(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/1 FAC1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk FAC1(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q FAC1(config-if)#description link to Building 2 FAC1(config-if)# FAC1(config-if)# FAC1(config-if)#exit
- Create Access ports.
- Assign interface to be in Access Mode
FAC1(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/15 FAC1(config-if)#switchport mode access
- Assign the VLAN
FAC1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
- Assign a suitable description
FAC1(config-if)#description link to Monitoring Server FAC1(config-if)#exit
- Assign interface to be in Access Mode
Temp Data
- Next configure fast ethernet interface which connects to the Core device and give a description
Dept1Sw(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/15 Dept1Sw(config-if)#switchport mode trunk Dept1Sw(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q Dept1Sw(config-if)#description link to FacACore Dept1Sw(config-if)#exit
- Configure fast ethernet interface, which connects to the User PC to an access port of VLAN 10 and give a description
Dept1Sw(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/0 Dept1Sw(config-if)#switchport mode access Dept1Sw(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10 Dept1Sw(config-if)#description link to Dept1PC Dept1Sw(config-if)#exit
- Follow the same steps for Dept2Sw
Dept2Sw(config)# vlan 20 Dept2Sw(config-vlan)# name Dept2 Dept2Sw(config-vlan)# exit Dept2Sw(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/15 Dept2Sw(config-if)#switchport mode trunk Dept2Sw(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q Dept2Sw(config-if)#description link to FacBCore Dept2Sw(config-if)#exit Dept2Sw(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/0 Dept2Sw(config-if)#switchport mode access Dept2Sw(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20 Dept2Sw(config-if)#description link to Dept2PC Dept2Sw(config-if)#exit
- You have configured your distribution layer. Check and verify the connectivity
- Go to Dept1PC and try ping the gateway (VLAN 10 Interface IP of FacACore)
ping 10.0.10.254
- You should get a reply
- Try the same in Dept2PC
- Go to Dept1PC and try ping the gateway (VLAN 10 Interface IP of FacACore)
Connecting LAN to the Router
Your Campus LAN is connecting to the outside through a border router. Your CampusCore switch connects to this border router. In this link router's fast ethernet interface IP connects with the Core switch's vlan interface IP. Let's start configuring this link starting from the CampusCore.
- Login to CampusCore switch and switch to config mode
- Create VLAN 255 and name it Public
CampusCore(config)# vlan 255 CampusCore(config-vlan)# name Public CampusCore(config-vlan)# exit
- Then assign the IP Address to the VLAN interface. Get the IP from the table. In the real situation this VLAN could be a public IP range which is assign to your Institute. In this Lab we are using a private IP block.
CampusCore(config)#interface vlan 255 CampusCore(config-if)# ip address 10.0.255.253 255.255.255.0 CampusCore(config-if)# exit
- Next configure fast ethernet interface which connects to the Core device and give a description.You can find then from the table
CampusCore(config)#interface FastEthernet 1/15 CampusCore(config-if)#switchport mode access CampusCore(config-if)#switchport access vlan 255 CampusCore(config-if)#description link to Border Router CampusCore(config-if)#speed 100 CampusCore(config-if)#duplex full CampusCore(config-if)#exit
Note: In the real environment you might not need Duplex and Speed. It will be negotiate automatically
- Now you have done CampusCore configuration. Let's start routers Configuration.
- Login to BorderRt Router and switch to config mode
- Router's IP allocation is as follows. You can get your Router's IP address from here
| Interface Name | IP Address |
|---|---|
| Fast Ethernet 0/0 | 10.0.255.254/24 |
| Fast Ethernet 0/1 | <Your Routers WAN IP> |
- Let's configure the LAN port (fa 0/0)
BorderRt(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0 BorderRt(config-if)#ip address 10.0.255.254 255.255.255.0 BorderRt(config-if)#description LAN Port connects to CampusCore BorderRt(config-if)#no shutdown BorderRt(config-if)#speed 100 BorderRt(config-if)#duplex full BorderRt(config-if)#exit
- Configure the WAN port (fa 0/1)
BorderRt(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1 BorderRt(config-if)#ip address x.x.x.x 255.255.255.0 BorderRt(config-if)#description WAN Port Bridged with CampusLAN host BorderRt(config-if)#no shutdown BorderRt(config-if)#exit
- You have successfully finished connecting CampusCore to the BorderRt router. Let's verify the connectivity using the ping command.
- Go to BorderRt and ping to CampusCore switch's VLAN 255 Interface IP
ping 10.0.255.253
- Now Check the routers connectivity in WAN port. Ping to the WAN Gateway
ping 192.248.6.254
- Both these ping commands should give you a reply
Routing
If You go to the Dept1PC and try a Ping to Dept2PC (10.0.20.1) and BorderRt router LAN port(10.0.255.254), you will not get a reply. That is because you don't have inter VLAN routing yet. In this Lab we will enable OSPF in all the Layer 3 devices and we will add default routes as following table.
- Following are the default routes of the devices
| Device | Default Route Destination IP | Default Route Destination Description |
|---|---|---|
| BorderRt | 192.248.6.254 | This is Configured in the router in the Lab |
| CampusCore | 10.0.255.254 | BorderRt routers LAN interface IP |
| FacACore | 10.0.2.1 | CampusCore Switches VLAN2 Interface IP |
| FacBCore | 10.0.2.1 | CampusCore Switches VLAN2 Interface IP |
| Dept1PC | none | This is a L2 device |
| Dept2PC | none | This is a L2 device |
| Dept1PC | 10.0.10.254 | FacACore Switches VLAN10 Interface IP |
| Dept2PC | 10.0.20.254 | FacBCore Switches VLAN20 Interface IP |
- Now let's enable OSPF on Core devices. Starting from CampusCore
- Login to CampusCore switch and switch to config mode
- Define OSPF process and Process ID. In this lab use process ID as 1
CampusCore(config)#router ospf 1
- Give the router ID
CampusCore(config-router)#router-id 10.0.2.1
- You are going to announce the subnets which are directly connects to you. Use this command for that
CampusCore(config-router)#redistribute connected subnets
- You are announcing to the core network (10.0.2.0/24) in area 2. Use this command for this
CampusCore(config-router)#network 10.0.2.0 0.0.0.255 area 2 CampusCore(config-router)#exit
- You are enabling OSPF on VLAN 2. Use this command for that.
CampusCore(config)#interface vlan 2 CampusCore(config-if)# ip ospf 1 area 2 CampusCore(config-if)# exit
- Now you have enable OSPF on CampusCore Switch. Now lets add the default Route.
CampusCore(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.255.254
- Follow the same steps in FacACore and FacBCore
- FacACore
FacACore(config)#router ospf 1 FacACore(config-router)#router-id 10.0.2.2 FacACore(config-router)#redistribute connected subnets FacACore(config-router)#network 10.0.2.0 0.0.0.255 area 2 FacACore(config-router)#exit FacACore(config)#interface vlan 2 FacACore(config-if)# ip ospf 1 area 2 FacACore(config-if)# exit FacACore(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.2.1
- FacBCore
FacBCore(config)#router ospf 1 FacBCore(config-router)#router-id 10.0.2.3 FacBCore(config-router)#redistribute connected subnets FacBCore(config-router)#network 10.0.2.0 0.0.0.255 area 2 FacBCore(config-router)#exit FacBCore(config)#interface vlan 2 FacBCore(config-if)# ip ospf 1 area 2 FacBCore(config-if)# exit FacBCore(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.0.2.1
- FacACore
- Now you have enable Routing in your Core network. Let's verify whether it is working.
- Go to Dept1PC and try a Ping to Dept2PC
ping 10.0.20.1
- It should give you a reply
- Go to Dept1PC and try a Ping to Dept2PC
- add the BorderRt Routers default gateway
- Go to BorderRt and switch to config mode
- Add the default route
BorderRt(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.248.6.254
- Verify the route by ping a known host from the BorderRt router
ping 192.248.1.161 ping www.google.com
- Both should give you a reply
- Some troubleshooting commands
- You can get the routing table by following
Router#show ip route
- To get OSPF routes
Router#show ip route ospf
- To get ospf neighbors
Router#show ip ospf neighbor
- To reset OSPF process
clear ip ospf process
- You can get the routing table by following
