Packet Tracer – Network Representation
Objectives
 The network model in this activity incorporates many of the technologies that you
will master in your CCNA studies. It represents a simplified version of how a small to
medium-sized business network might look. Feel free to explore the network on your
own. When you are ready, proceed through the following steps and answer the
questions.
 Note: It is not important that you understand everything you see and do in this
activity. Feel free to explore the network on your own. If you wish to proceed more
systematically, follow the steps below. Answer the questions to the best of your
ability.
Instructions
Step 1: Identify common components of a network as represented in Packet Tracer.
 The icon toolbar at the bottom left hand corner has various categories of networking
components. You should see categories that correspond to intermediary devices,
end devices, and media. The Connections category (with the lightning bolt icon)
represents the networking media supported by Packet Tracer. There is also an End
Devices category and two categories specific to Packet Tracer: Custom Made Devices
and Multiuser Connection.
 List the intermediary device categories.
( router,switches,hubs,wireless,security.wan emulation)
 Without entering into the internet cloud or intranet cloud, how many icons in the
topology represent endpoint devices (only one connection leading to them)?
( 15 )
 Without counting the two clouds, how many icons in the topology represent
intermediary devices (multiple connections leading to them)?
( home 2 central 6 branch 3 )
 How many end devices are not desktop computers?
( home 2 tablet dan home office branch 8 tablet smartphone home laptop ip
phome 0 op phone 1)
 How many different types of media connections are used in this network topology
Step 2: Explain the purpose of the devices.
a. In Packet Tracer, only the Server-PT device can act as a server. Desktop or Laptop
PCs cannot act as a server. Based on your studies so far, explain the client-server
model.
b. List at least two functions of intermediary devices.

( Jawaban anda )
c. List at least two criteria for choosing a network media type.
( Jawaban anda )
Step 3: Compare and contrast LANs and WANs.
a. Explain the difference between a LAN and a WAN. Give examples of each.
( Jawaban anda )
b. In the Packet Tracer network, how many WANs do you see?
(2)
c. How many LANs do you see?

( 3 lan home lan,brunch lan.central lan )
d. The internet in this Packet Tracer network is overly simplified and does not represent
the structure and form of the real internet. Briefly describe the internet.
( Jawaban anda )
e. What are some of the common ways a home user connects to the internet?
( Jawaban anda )
f. What are some common methods that businesses use to connect to the internet in
yourarea?
( Jawaban anda )
Challenge Question
 Now that you have had an opportunity to explore the network represented in this
Packet Tracer activity, you may have picked up a few skills that you would like to try
out. Or maybe you would like the opportunity to explore this network in more detail.
Realizing that most of what you see and experience in Packet Tracer is currently
beyond your skill level, here are some challenges you might want to attempt. Do not
worry if you cannot do them all. You will be a Packet Tracer master user and network
designer soon enough.
 Add an end device to the topology and connect it to one of the LANs with a media
connection. What else does this device need to send data to other end users? Can
you provide the information? Is there a way to verify that you correctly connected
the device?
 Add a new intermediary device to one of the networks and connect it to one of the
LANs or WANs with a media connection. What else does this device need to serve as
an intermediary to other devices in the network?
 Open a new instance of Packet Tracer. Create a new network with at least two LANs
connected by a WAN. Connect all the devices. Investigate the original Packet Tracer
activity to see what else you might need to do to make your new network functional.
Record your thoughts and save your Packet Tracer file. You may want to revisit your
network later after you have mastered a few more skills.
