Well, I have this program now that lets me use routers and switches from cisco. I want to be able to simulate a network that I have made that you can see via a screen shot. The problem is, I don?t know how to get everything to communicate. It could someone please take what I have ?the screen shot? and explain how to get it to communicate. What commands I may use via the terminal and be very specific with it. This would help me out a lot more than college at this point. Thanks

Use VMWare and Router simulaters. This will allow you to simulate the enviornment for tests.

First of all, you should decide, what you are going to achieve. What this network should do? What IP addresses are there? What WAN connection do you want to simulate?

The picture you have does not tell anything. Probably you should start with something simplier - create "2PCs - 1 Switch" scenario, and configure them to communicate to each other. Then try to connect 2 routers by ethernet, then by serial interface. And you will see that every time you will need different new commands. But creating the layout and then trying to create scenario will not give you anything.

If you have questions, do not hesitate to e-mail me.

Good luck,
