In this tutorial I will demonstrate that how can you
  • Configure Access or Trunk links
  • Create VLAN
  • Assign VLAN membership
  • Configure Intra VLAN routing
  • Configure VTP Server
  • Make VTP Clients
  • Show STP Static
  • Configure DTP port
To complete these lab either create a topology as shown in figure or download this file and load it in packet tracer

Task

You are the administrator at ComputerNetworkingNotes.com. company have two department sales and management. You have given three pc for sales and three pc in management. You created two VLAN. VLAN 10 for sales and VLAN20 for management. For backup purpose you have interconnected switch with one extra connection. You have one router for intera VLAN communications.
Let's start configuration first assign IP address to all pc's
To assign IP address double click on pc and select ip configurations from desktop tab and give ip address as shown in table given above

VLAN Trunking Protocol

Configure VTP Server

We will first create a VTP Server so it can automatically propagate VLAN information to other switch. Double click on Switch1 and select CLI. Set hostname to S1 and create VTP domain name example and set password to vinita ( Remember password is case sensitive ).
Switch 1
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#hostname S1
S1(config)#vtp mode server
Device mode already VTP SERVER.
S1(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from NULL to example
S1(config)#vtp password vinita
Setting device VLAN database password to vinita

Configure VTP clients

Once you have created a VTP domain. Configure remaining Switch to Client mode.
Switch 2
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#hostname S2
S2(config)#vtp mode client
Setting device to VTP CLIENT mode.
S2(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from NULL to example
S2(config)#vtp password vinita
Setting device VLAN database password to vinita
S2(config)#
Switch 3
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#hostname S3
S3(config)#vtp mode client
Setting device to VTP CLIENT mode.
S3(config)#vtp domain example
Changing VTP domain name from NULL to example
S3(config)#vtp password vinita
Setting device VLAN database password to vinita
S3(config)#

Dynamic Trunking Protocol

Configure DTP port

All Switch ports remain by default in access mode. Access port can not transfer the trunk frame. Change mode to trunk on all the port those are used to interconnect the switches
Switch 1
S1(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/24
S1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/24,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/24,
changed state to up
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
S1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/2
S1(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/2,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/2,
changed state to up
S1(config-if)#exit
S1(config)#
Switch 2
S2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/1,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet1/1,
changed state to up
S2(config-if)#exit
S2(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/2
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S2(config-if)#exit
S2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/23
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/23,
changed state to down
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0/23,
changed state to up
S2(config-if)#exit
S2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/24
S2(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S2(config-if)#exit
Switch 3
S3(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/24
S3(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S3(config-if)#exit
S3(config)#interface gigabitEthernet 1/1
S3(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
S3(config-if)#exit

Virtual LAN (VLAN)

Create VLAN

After VTP server configuration its time to organize VLAN. We need only to create VLAN on VTP server and reset will be done by VTP Server automatically.
Switch 1
S1(config)#vlan 10
S1(config-vlan)#exit
S1(config)#vlan 20
S1(config-vlan)#exit
S1(config)#
As we have already configure VTP server in our network so we don't need to create VLAN on S2 or S3. We need only to associate VLAN with port.

Assign VLAN membership

Switch 1
S1(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
S1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10
S1(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 0/2
S1(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
Switch 2
S2(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
S2(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10
S2(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 0/2
S2(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
Switch 3
S3(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
S3(config-if)#switchport access vlan 10
S3(config-if)#interface fastEthernet 0/2
S3(config-if)#switchport access vlan 20
Now we have two working vlan. To test connectivity do ping form 10.0.0.2 to 10.0.0.3 and 10.0.0.4. if you get successfully replay then you have successfully created VLAN and VTP server.

Spanning-Tree Protocol

In this configuration STP will block these ports F0/24 of S1 , F0/23 and F0/24 of S2 and F0/24 of S3 to avoid loop at layer to two. Verify those ports blocked due to STP functions

Verify STP ports

Switch 2

S2#
You can test STP protocols status on S1 and S3 also with
show spanning-tree active command

Router on Stick

At this point of configuration you have two successfully running VLAN but they will not connect each other. To make intra VLAN communications we need to configure router . To do this double click on router and select CLI.

Configure intra VLAN

Router
Router>enable
Router#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#no ip address
Router(config-if)#no shutdown
Router(config-if)#exit
Router(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0.10
Router(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1Q 10
Router(config-subif)#ip address 10.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-subif)#exit
Router(config)#interface fastEthernet 0/0.20
Router(config-subif)#encapsulation dot1Q 20
Router(config-subif)#ip address 20.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
Router(config-subif)#exit
To test connectivity between different vlan do ping form any pc to all reaming pc. it should be ping successfully. If you have error download this configured topology and cross check that where you have committed mistake.
