Practice Resolving a Router Fault on Your Network

It’s Your Turn

As we did in the exercise in the previous part, open the exercise file and try to resolve the faults shown below.

Reminder on How the Exercise Interface Works

If you need it, here’s a reminder of how the practical exercises work in Packet Tracer.

This exercise explores Packet Tracer’s feature that allows you to create practical exercises. Most of the network devices used in the exercise are password-protected with the following password: 1234-Metropolitan:1234 (case-sensitive, remember to use special characters).

When you start the exercise, you’ll have an assistant who will provide you with some information about the errors:

If you look at Completion in the bottom right-hand corner, you’ll see that the exercise isn't yet complete because your score is at 0%:

To successfully complete the exercise, you need the following score:

If you need help, click on Check Results at the bottom on the left, then on Assessment Items to check the marking scheme. This will help you find the solution to the exercise, but of course, don’t cheat! You should try to work it out for yourself.

Complete the Exercise

Here’s Samuel again, our network technician at the organization. Two new problems have been identified on the network:

  • The VPN router can no longer access the organization’s network.

  • No access from the workstation PC2-VPN to 192.168.10.2.

As you did in the exercise in the previous part, you need to troubleshoot the network. Try to get 100%. When you’ve finished, check the solution.

Good luck!
