This activity was centered around verifying the connectivity of the network. I didn't really have to do anything for this lab, but I felt it was important that I attempted to follow the directions so I could see exactly how a non-convergence command can be used in networking. The first thing I had to do in the lab was ping the FastEthernet ports of routers R1 and R3. After analyzing the results, I was instructed to ping other addresses on other routers from R1 and R3. After that, I had to enter the debug ip rip command in order to see how the RIP was working. Then, I entered Simulation Mode on Packet Tracer and used the ping 172.30.1.1 command from router 2 and clicked the Auto Capture/ Play button in order to see whether or not the ping worked. All in all, this lab wasn't made to present any sort of a challenge to the user, but to give the user a good sense of how these non-convergence commands work.
