Do Labs

Depending on your chosen lab tool, here are some suggestions for what to do in lab:

Pearson Network Simulator: If you use the full Pearson ICND1 or CCNA simulator, focus more on the configuration scenario and troubleshooting scenario labs associated with the topics in this part of the book. These types of labs include a larger set of topics and work well as Part Review activities. (See the Introduction for some details about how to find which labs are about topics in this part of the book.)

Blog: Config Labs: The author’s blog includes a series of configuration-focused labs that you can do on paper, each in 10–15 minutes. Review and perform the labs for this part of the book, as found at http://blog.certskills.com. Then navigate to the Hands-on Config labs.

Other: If using other lab tools, here are a few suggestions: Make sure to experiment heavily with VLAN configuration and VLAN trunking configuration.
