Description
There is a “CCNA and above” level lab on my Github to practice configuring EtherChannel, HSRP and OSPF.
On the Github link you will find the lab by name “20211124 L2 EtherChannel, HSRP, OSPF”, it is the second one in the Lab list, and with this lab are associated 2 .pkt files, one with the suffix “empty” – that’s the initial state with default configurations, you can try solving the lab for yourself but if you get stuck you can check-out my solution – with “finished” it’s name.
For in-between details not mentioned in the lab or shown in the .pkt, choose for yourself.
Additionally, use this topology to practice other networking concepts: HSRP interface tracking, use of ACLs, NATting, spanning-tree protocol standard and priority change, PAgP EtherChannel, port security, etc.
IMPORTANT: Install the latest version (at the moment of writing, version 8.0.1.0064) of Packet Tracer to be able to open these .pkt files.
Let me know if you’d like to see a specific CCNA concept covered with a Packet Tracer lab from me. Have fun, gain skills!
