For this question you will be submitting two files together in a zip format, one packet tracer file and another pdf file.

1. Setup a network of three PCs using Packet Tracer Program as follows:

Connect PC0 to fa0/11, PC1 to fa0/12 of Switch 1(SW1) and PC2 to fa0/11 of Switch 2(SW2).

Connect fa0/24 of SW1 to fa0/24 SW2. That means your network will have two switches and three PCs.

You should use the switch Cisco 2960.

Assign the IP Address as follows:

PC0: 192.168.50.1xy subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (xy are the last two digits of your ID; eg, if your ID is 20121234, then IP is 192.168.50.134)

PC1: 192.168.50.1(xy+1) subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (xy are the last two digits of your ID; eg, if your ID is 20121234, then IP is 192.168.50.135)

PC2: 192.168.50.1(xy+2) subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (xy are the last two digits of your ID; eg, if your ID is 20121234, then IP is 192.168.50.136)
