Packet Tracer Cheat Sheet by carter.fendley

How to use this cheat sheet
In order to use the commands you MUST be in the mode that that command is listed under. The sections are listed in order progre­ssion. "User EXEC Mode" is the default mode and thus has no command to enter it.

Example: In order to use the

hostname

command I must be in "­Global Config Mode" so I look one section before to look up the command to enter "­Global Config Mode". I then see that in order to use the

configure terminal

command I must be in "­Pri­vileged EXEC Mode" and to enter "­Pri­vileged EXEC Mode" I must use the command

enable

in "User EXEC Mode". This would give this string of commands:

enable

>

configure terminal

>

hostname <ho­stn­ame>

When in doubt google
If you are asked to do something that is not on this cheat sheet google it. For example if you are asked to deny all incoming inform­ation from a IP google "How to deny incoming IP cisco packet tracer­"

Command conven­tions
When you see a command like

ip address <ip> <su­bne­t>

, the

<ip>

and

<su­bne­t>

part mean that in order to use this command you need to substitute inform­ation into those places.

Example: If I wanted to set the IP to

192.16­8.1.1

with a subnet mask of

255.25­5.255.0

I would fully replace both the

<ip>

and

<su­bne­t>

sections with that inform­ation. I would end up with a command that looks like:

ip address 192.16­8.1.1 255.25­5.255.0

Overview
Desktops do not have a router or switch like CLI. In order to configure settings on desktops you must click on them and then navigate to the "­Des­kto­p" tab. Here you can use the different apps to preform different operat­ions. See below for specific operations help.

Setting an IP
Click on the "­Con­figure IP" desktop app. Here you can input IPv4 and IPv6 addresses as well as other networking inform­ation. When you are done you can simply exit out and it will be saved.

Navigating to a web page
Use the "Web Browse­r" app as you would a normal web brouser

Pinging IPs
Use the "­Command Prompt­" app and use the command

ping <ip>

in order to see if a host is up.
