This document contains instructions and configuration steps for configuring Cisco routers and switches. It discusses configuring global settings like hostname and MOTD banners on routers. It also provides steps for configuring router passwords, interfaces with IP addresses, and saving configurations. The document contains tasks for configuring a switch interface description and saving the RAM configuration to NVRAM.

IP Config:
Displays all current TCP/IP network configuration values and
refreshes Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain
Name System (DNS) settings.
IP Config/all:
Displays all current TCP/IP network configuration values and
refreshes Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain
Name System (DNS) settings.

3. Ping <IP>:
The ping command is a Command Prompt command used to test the
ability of the source computer to reach a specified destination
computer. The ping command operates by sending Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) Echo Request messages to the destination
computer and waiting for a response.

4. Arp -a:
Using the arp command allows you to display and modify the
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache. Each time a computer's
TCP/IP stack uses ARP to determine the Media Access Control
(MAC) address for an IP address, it records the mapping in the ARP
cache so that future ARP lookups go faster.
Netstat-a:
The netstat command generates displays that show network status
and protocol statistics. You can display the status of TCP and UDP
endpoints in table format, routing table information, and interface
information.

6. :

7. Net View:
To view computers on your network: Open a command
prompt.
Tracert <hostname>:
Traceroute is a network diagnostic tool used to track in real-time
the pathway taken by a packet on an IP network from source to
destination, reporting the IP addresses of all the routers it pinged in
between. Traceroute also records the time taken for each hop the
packet makes during its route to the destination.

8. Netstat -r:
The network statistics ( netstat ) command is a networking
tool used for troubleshooting and configuration, that can also serve
as a monitoring tool for connections over the network.
Nslookup:

9. nslookup (from name server lookup) is a network
administration command-line tool for querying the Domain Name
System (DNS) to obtain domain name or IP address mapping, or
other DNS records.
Nbtstat -n:
Nbtstat is a Windows command-line tool that displays NetBIOS
over TCP/IP statistics.

hostname argument followed by the new hostname.
Step 4: Configure the MOTD banner.
Create a suitable MOTD banner. Only system administrators of the
ABC Company are authorized access, unauthorized access will be
prosecuted, and all connection information will be logged.
 MOTD banner: When users connect to the router, the
"Message Of The Day (MOTD)" banner is presented.
 Login banner: The login banner is displayed right before the
authentication prompt.
 Exec banner: The Exec banner appears before the user sees
the exec prompt.
 Incoming banner: These banners are displayed for users who
connect through reverse telnet.
