CISCO Network Fundamentals Packet Tracer Help?
Question by JoeSS87: CISCO network fundamentals packet tracer help?
‘m not asking for the answers, but I’m stuck on the part that states”For PCs 1A and 1B, in addiction to IP configuration, configure them to use DNS services”. What I’m stuck on is how to configure PCs in the packet tracer to use DNS services. I just plain out confused how to do this part. I have completed everything else except this.
Task 1: IP Subnet Planning
You have been given an IP address block of 192.168.23.0 /24. You must provide for existing networks as well as future growth.
Subnet assignments are:
•1st subnet, existing student LAN (off of router R2-Central), up to 60 hosts;
•2nd subnet, future student LAN, up to 28 hosts;
•3rd subnet, existing ISP LAN, up to 12 hosts;
•4th subnet, future ISP LAN, up to 8 hosts;
•5th subnet, existing WAN, point-to-point link;
•6th subnet, future WAN, point-to-point link;
•7th subnet, future WAN, point-to-point link.
Interface IP addresses:
•For the server, configure the second highest usable IP address on the existing ISP LAN subnet.
•For R1-ISP’s Fa0/0 interface, configure the highest usable IP address on the existing ISP LAN subnet.
•For R1-ISP’s S0/0/0 interface, configure the highest usable address on the existing WAN subnet.
•For R2-Central’s S0/0/0 interface, use the lowest usable address on the existing WAN subnet.
•For R2-Central’s Fa0/0 interface, use the highest usable address on the existing student LAN subnet.
•For hosts 1A and 1B, use the first 2 IP addresses (two lowest usable addresses) on the existing student LAN subnet.
Additional configurations:
•For PCs 1A and 1B, in addition to IP configuration, configure them to use DNS services. ** Here is where I’m stuck *****
•For the server, enable DNS services, use the domain name eagle-server.example.com, and enable HTTP services.
•For R1-ISP router serial interface, you will need to set the clock rate (a timing mechanism required on the DCE end of serial links) to 64000.
No clock rate is needed on the DTE side, in this case R2-Central’s serial interface
I would think that the dns server would be 192.168.254.254. But when I input it into the packet tracer under the server, it isn’t correct.

Answer by Andrew S
Double click on each PC, go to the desktop tab and click on IP configuration. Enter the IP of the server in the DNS box.
Update: if your subnets are correct the server should be at 192.168.23.62. Remember your initial block is only 192.168.23.0 – 192.168.23.255 so nothing in your network should be outside that range. The first subnet should be 192.168.23.0 – 192.168.23.63.
