137 - 238 CCNA 2: Routers and Routing Basics v3.1 Instructor Guide – Case Study Copyright © 2004, Cisco Systems, Inc.
Case Study Deliverables The key lesson of this case study is the importance of thorough and clear documentation.
There should be two types of documentation completed.
General Documentation:
• A complete narrative of the project should be typed using word processing
software. Since the scenarios break up the entire task into pieces, take care to
address each scenario task so that any layperson could understand that particular
task.
• Microsoft Excel or another spreadsheet program could be used to simply list the
equipment and serial numbers.
• Cisco Network Designer (CND), Microsoft Visio, or any paint program could be
used to draw the network.
• Provide documentation that specifies how the security was tested. A plan for
monitoring the network should also be included.
Technical Documentation:
The technical documentation should include details of the network topology. Use CND, Visio,
or any paint program to draw the network.
Use the tables in the working copy of the case study as a reference, and enter all table
information into a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel. The spreadsheet should
include the following details:
• IP addressing of all interfaces
• DCE/DTE information
• Router passwords
• Interface descriptions
• IP addressing and gateway assignments for all PCs
The actual access control lists, or router commands sequence, should be included in this
documentation using a word processing program. Be sure to include the router interface the
list is applied to and the direction.
Document the use of a routing protocol.
Router output from the following commands should be captured and placed into this
documentation:
• show cdp neighbors
• show ip route
• show ip protocol
