LAB 17: IMPLEMENTING FIREWALL USING PACKET TRACER 

 

QUESTION: IMPLEMENT FIREWALL USING PACKET TRACER. ALSO USE THE SAME SERVER AS DHCP SERVER TO AUTOMATICALLY ASSIGN IP ADDRESS TO ALL PC AND ALSO USE THE SAME SERVER AS WEB SERVER. YOUR FIREWALL SHOULD DENY ALL ICMP/PING AND ALLOW ALL IP.


 

 

SERVER 0:

CLICK ON SERVER

  1. GOTO IP CONFIGURATION

  1. GOTO SERVICES 

// making the server as DHCP server

CLICK ON DHCP

SELECT SERVICE AS ON 

// making the server as web server

CLICK ON HTTP 

HTTP SHOULD BE ON

CLICK index.html and click edit

Now, change the header portion according to your wish 

 

CLICK ON SAVE


 

// making the server as FIREWALL

 

CLICK ON SERVER

GOTO DESKTOP

CLICK ON IPV4 FIREWALL

SERVICE ON 

CONFIGURE AS FOLLOWING 

// we are allowing all IP and denying all ICMP/PING , hence we will not be able to ping from PC to server but we will be able to open the web server in PC.

 

PC0:

GOTO DESKTOP

GOTO COMMAND PROMPT

PING 1.0.0.1

 

We will not be able to ping as the firewall has blocked the packet.

 

NOW GOTO DESKTOP 

GOTO WEB BROWSER 

TYPE 1.0.0.1

YOUR WEBPAGE WILL OPEN 

 

Hence we are able to use IP in web browsers  as FIREWALL has allowed IP.
