Chapter 6 Switch Lab

In this lab we set up a network with switches.  The switches are pretty simple to set up but require you to manually figure out a subnet and its subnet mask, then each computers IP address.  First things first, you have to physically connect the computers to the switch with an Ethernet cable.  Next we changed the IP address to a static address and manual set it and the subnet mask.  Once we were done with that, we tried pinging each other to test our connections.
