In this packet to trace a lab you need to configure both as a slug and NDP or network time protocol.

This lab consists of a Cisco router and a Cisco switch as well as a source log server A.P. server and

P.C. slug allows us to centralize log messages as well as store a historical backup of various log of

messages rather than just logging messages to the console of a router or switch or logging it to a limited

buffer.

We can centralize log messages on assist log server hard drive capacities in servers are much greater

than the memory or flash available in routers and switches so we can collate centralize and store log

messages on a six log server.

So that's what you're going to configure in this lab.

You're also going to make sure that your log messages have the correct time by setting up an A.P. Server

Network Time Protocol allows us to ensure that the devices throughout our network have the correct time

which is important when you're logging messages.

If you have a log message that says that an interface went down that it doesn't really help you if you

don't know when that event occurred did it happen yesterday.

Did it happen a year ago.

Did it happen five years ago.

It's important that you have timestamps on your log messages and that's why you need to configure a

network time protocol server or A.P. server.

What you need to firstly do is configure the source log server to accept assist log messages and then

configure wrote a one and switch one to log messages to the source log server to test this great day

loop back interface on Route 1 and verify that source log messages are displayed on the source log server

do various tests such as shutting down the loop back interface on the router and then re enabling the

loop back interface and make sure that to the source log messages are displayed on the source log server

shut as this interface on the switch and then re enable it.

And once again verify that to the source log messages are shown on the slug server setting up a source

log survey is very easy in package tracer.

Select your source log server go to services source log and enable the source log server once you've

configured your source log server you need to configure the A.P. server so ensure that ATP is enabled

on your server go to services A.P. and enable the A.P. service before you configure your devices to

get time from the A.P. server check what the time is on your devices as an example on the router show

clock shows us that this writer believes that it's the first of March 1993 that's obviously incorrect

also configured right to one and switch one to set timestamps in the source log messages sent to the

source log server and then configure right 1 and switch one to get to that time from the A.P. server

once you've done that verify that the clocks are properly set and then shut down the loop back interface

and re enable it on Route 1 and verify that your source logs server is receiving the source log messages

but in addition verify that the timestamps on the source log messages are set to correctly do the same

on the switch shut it down and no shut this interface and verify that the source log messages have the

correct timestamp applied it's important for you to know both so slug and A.P. for the CCMA exam as

well as for the real world so make sure that you know how to configure both source log and A.P. by downloading

the packet trace a file and configuring the network so can you complete the slab download the packet

trace a file and see if you can complete the lab yourself otherwise watch the next video where I complete

the lab.
