details)
- 4 PCs
● Network device configurations
a. Switch configuration:
- set hostname as your name
- set system clock to May 2017 10:00 am
- display the name of the file and version of IOS
- display the name of the interfaces
- display 6 IOS modes
b. Router configuration
- set hostname as your family name
- set system clock to Jun 2017 1:00pm

● Network device configurations
a. Switch configuration:
- Set IP addresses on PC and switch
- Create VLAN
- Ping each other
- Set VTP domain with your first name
- Set VTP password with your family name
