Packet Tracer Lab 3.2.5.2 Reflection

This lab was about convergence. The lab was extremely lengthy but maybe it was because the directions were very detailed. In this activity, the objective was to view how a converged network operates and how to add a LAN topology to a converged network. The first thing I had to do in this lab was add a switch and host to one of the routers and then I had to configure the connections to the specified ports. After configuring all that, I had to confirm that the network was converged and in order to do that, I checked the IP routing table of router 2 and the network was converged according to it. Finally, I had to turn debugging on in both routers and to do that, I entered the "debug ip rip" command in the CLI for the routers. All in all, it was a good lab and once I got through the difficult part of the lab which was configuring everything to be converged, the lab was easy.
