Cisco Packet Tracer VLAN Configuration Example

Packet Tracer VLAN Configuration

As an example, you can see a VLAN topology below. In this topology, 2 Cisco Catalyst 2950-24 switches and 6 PCs are used.

You can DOWNLOAD the Cisco Packet Tracer example with .pkt format at the end of the lesson.

For all Packet Tracer Examples and Files, you can check Packet Tracer Labs Page.

PC Configurations

PC 1 –> 192.168.1.2 VLAN 2
PC 2 –> 192.168.1.3 VLAN 2
PC 3 –> 192.168.1.4 VLAN 3
PC 4 –> 192.168.1.6 VLAN 3
PC 5 –> 192.168.1.7 VLAN 3
PC 6 –> 192.168.1.8 VLAN 2

VLAN Configuration on Switch 1

Switch 1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/2  
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport mode access  
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch 1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/3 
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport mode access  
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch 1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/4 
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport mode access 
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 3
Switch 1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/1 
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport mode trunk 
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport nonegotiate  
Switch 1(config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan 2-4 
Switch 1# copy running-config startup-config

VLAN Configuration on Switch 2

Switch 2(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/2 
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport mode access  
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 3

Switch 2(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/3 
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport mode access  
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch 2(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/4 
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport mode access  
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch 2(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/1 
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport mode trunk 
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport nonegotiate  
Switch 2(config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan 2-4 
Switch 2# copy running-config startup-config
