LAB A 50 PTSCOMMAND PROMPT &INSTALLING WIN 7Several screenshots are required for grading. No points will be given without screenshots so READthe entire Lab prior to completing ! You might want to put post-it notes in your lab manual overeach step where you need to create a screenshot or there are additional steps so that you do not miss it.

I recommend that you use the Snipping Tool that comes with Windows 7 to create the screenshots.Click on Start , Snipping Tool , click and drag a square on the screen around the area you want to take ascreenshot of. (Screenshots are sometimes called printscreens too.) Click on the Copy button. Go intoyour answer document in Word and paste in the screenshot. To get the next screenshot, click on New .

If you have any issues inserting screenshots such as only a small portion of the capture appears, followthe instructions below to clear the document formatting:

Select the visible portion of the screen shot that you want to clear the formatting from. On the Home tab, in the Font group, do one of the following :

In Word 2007, click Clear Formatting .Be sure to read all of the submission requirements in each Activity before completing the activity.

Note: It is highly recommended that you upgrade your home computer to the version of VMwareWorkstation that is installed in the computer lab for compatibility reasons. See current product keyand download information in Blackboard in the announcements.The steps in this exercise are NOT in the textbook or in the Lab manual.

Exercise A Navigating in the Command Prompt (8 pts)Overview In this exercise, you will learn some of the basics of navigating in a command

prompt. You will learn to create, delete and modify directories and viewinformation about files and directories.The command prompt can be a powerful way of managing and using the filestructure in a computer. You can use directory commands to manage and see thesame information that you do with the Windows Explorer.

Complete this activity on the HOSTin the classroom. (It can also be completed on a windowscomputer at home)


2/27

Completion time 50 minutesThe steps in this lab are NOT in the textbook or in the Lab manual.

VocabularyFile Block of information stored on a computer. It must have a unique name within a

folder.Folder A collection of related files used to help organize the file systemDirectory Same as folderSubdirectory A folder (directory) inside of another folder (directory)

Click on Start, in the search box, type in cmd and press . A window will open like theprintscreen below.

Take a look at what you see on the screen currently. On the lab computer, the default directory isC:\Users\ student (your computer may have a different default directory. )

cd The cd command allows you to change directories. When you are using the command prompt everything must be spelled correctly or a command will

not work. Spaces are important too. If you have extra spaces or are missing spaces, you may notget the results that you are looking for.

Type cd\windows\system32 and press . This will change your current directory to thec:\windows\system32 directory.

You can traverse to a folder inside of the current directory by typing cd folder . This willchange to a subdirectory immediately inside of the current directory. Try this by typing cd speech and press . Notice how the current directory displayed is now thec:\windows\system32\speech directory.

Now type in cd\ and press

This changes you to the root directory. The root directory is very important for you to be familiarwith. The root is considered to be the beginning of the drive.

You can change to a directory 1 folder at a time OR you can change to directories with 1 command. Type in cd windows and press Type in cd system32 and press Type in cd speech and press

Steps when you start at the root of the drive, steps a-c above are the same as d below. To make the directory change with 1 command, type in

cd\windows\system32\speech and press


3/27

Try both of the above directory changes. After changing to the c:\windows\system32\speech directory, to move back 1 folder, type in cd ..

and press (see the picture below)

dir Now we will look at the files within a directory.

Type in cd\users\student and press . Then type in dir and press ( My resultsare below, your results may be different than mine. Also, this assumes that you are on thecomputers on campus. If you are in another location, type cd\users then type dir to see theusernames listed and then type cd yourusername .)

This is showing us the files and folders that are in the current directory of C:\Users\ student You can see the same files and folder information with the Windows Explorer. Click on Start , then

Computer , Double click on the C drive, Double click on the Users folder, then double click on student


4/27

You can see the same folders in the command prompt that you can see in the Windows Explorer.

(NOTE: the AppData folder. The HOST computer is configured to seehidden files, so they are displayed in the Windows explorer.)

help screens for command line utilities The dir command can do more than just display a list of files and folders. There are switches that

you can use with the command to see the information in a different way. To get help for mostcommand line utilities, type in the command, then /? after the command. In the command prompt,

type in dir /? and press , then read the help screen.Ex AQuestion1

List 3 ways you can sort a directory listing? By name, by extension, or by size.

Change to the c:\windows\system32 directory and then compare the next 2 directory listings.(NOTE: you will have to use the information from the directions above to figure out how to change tothis directory, this is not listed as an exact command )

Type dir /o:d and press Type dir /o:-d and press

Ex AQuestion

2

Explain how the 2 directory listings are different? d shows the earliest files on the bottomof CMD, and d shows the newest files on the bottom of the CMD.

Ex AQuestion3

What are the results when you do a directory listing with the /p switch? Places files inalphabetical order.

Ex AQuestion4

What are the results when you do a directory listing with the /s switch? Shows each filewithin its own directories.


5/27

Repeat commands The computer remembers several of the previous commands. To see the previous command, you

can press the . Each time you press the , you can see the previouscommand. To change the command, you can then press the and insert or delete textfrom the command.

Try pressing the now. You should see the dir /o:-d command.

Redirect output to a file Sometimes it is helpful to get a directory listing into a document. You can take the output that is

displayed on the screen and redirect it into a file on your computer. Then you could copy and pastethat information to a document.

Start in the c:\users\student directory. ( NOTE: if you are on a different computer, you need tochange this to the directory for the user that you are currently logged in as. If you are unsure,change to the users folder first, then do a directory listing, then change to the directory thatcorresponds with the name you are logged in as. )

Type dir and press to view the contents of this folder on the computer screen. To redirect the output from the computer screen to, use the greater than symbol. Type

dir > list.txt and press . This will create a file called list.txt. The file will belocated in the current directory which is c:\Users\student. ( See the printscreen below for help )

Now run a directory listing again. You should see a new file, list.txt, in your directory listing. To view the file, type in notepad list.txt and press The notepad program should open up a text document that contains the results of the list.txt

document. Take a screen shot of the notepad program with the list.txt file open, and then paste it below by

pressing Ctrl+V.


6/27

Close out of the notepad program. You can redirect any output from other commands in the command prompt by using the redirect.

Copy or paste text inside of a command prompt Sometimes you want to copy and paste text, such as a filename from inside of a command prompt . On the far left of the command prompt windows title bar, click the Command Prompt icon. (See

the red circle in the picture below)

From the menu, click on Edit and then Mark . A blinking cursor then appears at the top of thecommand prompt window.

Click and drag the cursor over the text you would like to copy to the clipboard; the information willbe highlighted. For this lab, I would like you to highlight the line that contains the list.txt file thatyou created in the redirect portion of this lab. See the printscreen below. (If you cant see it at thistime, from the c:\users\student folder run a directory listing again. )


7/27

After you have highlighted all the information you want to copy, press This will place the

highlighted text into the clipboard.Ex AQuestion7

Paste the text you copied above in this box? C:\Users\student>dir > list.txt

Creating, deleting and copying directories and files From the command prompt, type cd\ and press . This should change us to the root of the

drive. To make a new directory called new , type md new and press ( NOTE: this will create the

new directory in the current directory which is the root of the drive ) Create these other directories using the md command.

c:\new\software c:\new\stuff c:\new\class c:\new\class\assignments c:\new\class\letters

Change to the c:\new directory Use the cd command to change directories and see what you have created. If you make a mistake, you can delete a directory by using the rd command. For example, to delete the c:\new\class\letters directory, you can type

rd c:\new\class\letters and press ( NOTE: this will keep the folder, c:\new\classand remove only the letters folder. The folder must be empty in order to delete it .)

If you deleted the c:\new\class\letters folder, please create the folder again now. Change to the c:\new\class\assignments directory Type notepad lab.txt and press . Click Yes to create a new file. Type in any text in the

file then close and save the notepad program. Type copy lab.txt c:\new\stuff and press ( this should keep the lab.txt file in the

c:\new\class\assignments AND put another copy of the same file in c:\new\stuff ) Change to the c:\new folder, then type dir /s > new.txt and press Type notepad new.txt and press Copy the entire contents of the new.txt file from notepad and paste it into this document here: Volume in drive C has no label.

pressing Ctrl+V.

Ex 7.3Question

7

How does the Ipconfig display differ from the first time you ran the ipconfig /allcommand?Except for the IP address, the TCP/IP settings are the same as they were in the firstinstance, but the display now shows that DHCP is not enabled and does not specify a DHCPserver address.

Exercise 7.4 Testing Network ConnectionsComplete this on the VM you created NYC-CLa, NYC-CLb. You will need the server VM(RWDC01_WinServer2008 ) running too.

Completion time 10 minutes

Ex 7.4Question

8

What is the result?The computer successfully pings the specified address.

Ex 7.4Question

9

What does this result prove about the computers network connectivity? it proves nothing. Pinging the loopback address (127.0.0.1) proves only that thecomputers TCP/IP client is configured correctly.


16/27

Ex 7.4Question

10

What would be the result if you u nplugged your computers network cable beforeexecuting the ping 127.0.0.1 command?The ping test would still be successful because pinging the loopback address only tests thevalidity of the computers TCP/IP configuration. No packets actually leave the c omputerduring the loopback test.

Ex 7.4

Question11

What is the result of the ping test, and what does it prove?---

Ex 7.4Question

12

What is the IP address of RWDC01?169.254.34.155

Ex 7.4Question

13

How was the computer able to resolve the name RWDC01 into its IP address?The computer sent a name resolution request to the DNS server it is configured to use.

Ex 7.4Question

14

What was the result of the test, and what does this result prove?The computer successfully pings the specified computer. The results prove that bothcomputers are connected to the network and can communicate with each other. If thisdoesnt work, try turning off the firewall to see if it works.

Ex 7.4Question

15

What was the result of the test, and what does this result prove?The computer successfully pings the specified computer. The results prove that bothcomputers are connected to the network and can communicate with each other. If thisdoesnt work, try turn ing off the firewall to see if it works.

Ex 7.4Question

16

Was it necessary to perform this last test? Why or why not?The textbook answer: No, a successful result indicates that both computers cancommunicate already. No, one ping checks both networks. My answer: Yes, because youmay have a firewall issue that can keep one computer from displaying the response, so it isa good idea to check.

MORE COMMANDPROMPT AND BATCHFILES - 21 PTSExercise B Networking Command Line UtilitiesOverview In this exercise, you will explore the use networking and other useful utilities to

expand your knowledge using the command prompt.Complete this activity on the HOST machine in the classroom (Your VM does not have internetconnectivity at this time.The steps in this exercise are NOT in the textbook or in the Lab manual.Completion time 40 minutes

The steps in this lab are NOT in the textbook or in the Lab manual.

Run command prompt as administrator Several of the utilities used for networking in the command prompt require administrative privileges

to use the utility. Click on Start, in the search box, type incmd

. When the command prompt is listedunder programs, then Right Click on the command prompt and click on Run as administrator .


18/27

ipconfig You used the ipconfig command already this semester to display IP address information. The utility

gathers information from the network interface card(s) on your computer. It also gathers someinformation from the host machine that your computer connects with.

At the command prompt, enter ipconfig and press . The screen will show the return IPaddress information. (NOTE: you may have to use the scroll bar on the right of the commandprompt window to scroll up and see some pertinent information.

To get more detailed IP address information, type in ipconfig /all and press You can see additional information about whether the address is obtained automatically (from

DHCP), the lease dates, Physical Address (MAC address) information and DNS servers.Ex BQuestion

1

What computer are you using? My home computer. Is the address on your computerobtained from DHCP? Yes.

To get help for the ipconfig command, type in ipconfig /? and press . Review the helpscreens.

NOTE: The next few steps will only work on a network that is configured with DHCP. If you are at homeor somewhere else where the address is statically assigned, you will need to skip this section and comeback to campus to complete it. To terminate an IP address, type in ipconfig /release and press .


19/27

NOTE: If you get the message above. You need to open your command prompt with administrative

privileges. Follow the steps to Run command prompt as administrator, then repeat step 8 . You should see that all DHCP IP addresses are cleared out or blank. To re-establish your IP address, type ipconfig /renew and press . When you renew,

sometimes you get the same IP address and sometimes you get a different IP address.Ex BQuestion2

What is your default gateway? 192.168.1.1

ping The ping utility uses an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) ECHO request/reply feature to see

if the device is reachable on the IP network. It sends packets across the network to a destinationdevice that you specify. It will measure the time that it takes for a request to and back from thedevice. Administrators use it as a quick way to determine if the connection to the other piece ofequipment that they are trying to connect to is reachable.

Sometimes you can connect to a device, but you cannot ping the device. For this lab, if you get theresponse Request timed out , just try another site. If you get it for all sites you try, then make surethat you have an IP address assigned using the ipconfig command.

Type ping www.madisoncollege.edu and press There are 2 different ways that you can type in the device that you are trying to ping. Ping IPaddress

OR ping hostname. For the hostname, you can use some sites such as: www.goo gle.com,www.yahoo.com, www.madisoncollege .edu. To use the IP Address, type in the IP address that youare trying to ping.

Use ping to measure the round-trip times to the default gateway of your computer and to 2 otherdevices/sites.

tracert Now you will run a tracert (traceroute) to see the route that the IP packets take from your computer

to a destination on the internet. You can run a tracert on either an IPaddress OR hostname. Type tracert www.madisoncollege.edu and press Use tracert to measure the number of hops for the 2 other devices/sites that you tested in the ping

section of this lab.Device/site to tracert Number of hops1) www.google.com 11 2) www.yahoo.com 14 Ex BQuestion5

Compare the average round trip times for ping and the number of hops for tracert for the3 devices that are not your gateway. Do you see a relationship between longer delay andhigher hop count? TypeAnswerHere

nslookup Now you will run a nslookup command to get the IP Address(es) of a hostname. Type nslookup www.madisoncollege.edu and press . This will give you the IP

Address of the www.madisoncollege .edu host. The first 2 lines are about the name server that is giving the response. The next 2 lines are about the

host machine that you are looking up. Use nslookup to obtain the IP Addresses for the 2 other devices/sites that you tested in the ping

section of this lab.Site/domain IP Address (there may be more than 1 address listed)1) www.google.com 198.105.244.114
