Continuing with my series of Packet Tracer, this time I’ll describe the basics to build topologies and get them to work, getting to know the different working spaces and modes of operation of PT. Enjoy.

How to use Packet Tracer? I Features
Recently I’ve realized how PT is very little explored and, sometimes, it’s power underestimated: Its ability to help develop activities of the CCNA courses and the didactic value that it has (a student can experiment all the alternatives of a technology to complete her/his understanding). So from this post on I will begin a series of posts on the subject, that will serve to students as to instructors. Today I will comment the characteristics that make of PT a great tool, not only because the power of simulation but its ease of use. Enjoy it.

Easy VLSM excercise
Subnetting is an always-in topic, additionally, when speaking of VLSM -Variable Length Subnet Masks- the technique a little more complex and their consequences make the topic even hotter. So, I leave you a simple excercise to understand more about it and practice the technique. This is an “easy” task and later on I’ll post another a litle harder. Hope you find this useful. (more…)

¿How to design networks using VLSM -variable lenght subnet masks?
This post describes the technique used nowadays to create subnets in IP networks, called VLSM. I’ll assume that the reader already knows the basics of IP addressing, specially IP address classes and the relation between IP address and Subnet masks, there are some posts on that subject in this blog but I’ve not translated them, Compartir una conexión I: Enrutador inalámbrico and ¿Cómo crear una red punto a punto en Win XP? Paso a paso. (more…)
