Need help!!!

Hello guys.I'm new here and newborn in cisco but got kind of project which i have to complete even so it's still hard for me.I hope can get some help here.

Having 1 router with 3 interfaces (Fe2 for WAN,Fe1 and Fe3 will be used for vlans,don't need router on stick),2 switches.Switch1:total 8 ports Fe0-Fe7;port fe0 and fe1 belong to vlan1,ports fe2 and fe3 belong to vlan2;port fe4 used for trunk with switch2,port fe5 connect to router on fe1.
Switch2:8 ports fe0-fe7,port fe1 belong to vlan 1,ports fe0,fe2 and fe3 belong to vlan2;port fe7 used to trunk with switch1,on the port6 there is web server with 2 NIC(so i guess each one can belong to differnt vlan?)

The hosts from both vlans should access web server,also need redundancy and fault tolerance.Address of network is 192.168.2.0/27

Please help,very confused how to start configuration from trunks or creating vlans,when to assign default gateway???

I would check out Cisco's website, they have ample config examples available with explanations so you can also get the gist of it.

I would start with the VLANs and work your way up.

You asked for full configuration....
well, try this....

so i created vlans on both switches and assigned ports to vlans,then configured trunk between switches,next should i create first trunks between switches and router's interfaces or first assign default gateway for vlans?
SWITCH 1:
Fe0 – Fe1 –> VLAN 2 (Red)
Fe2 – Fe3 –> VLAN 4 (Blue)
Fe4 –> Trunk Port
SWITCH 2:
Fe0, Fe2, Fe3, Fe5 –> VLAN 4 (Blue)
Fe1, Fe6 –> VLAN 2 (Red)
Fe7 –> Trunk Port
Switch 1 Configuration:
Create VLANs 2 and 4 in the switch database
Switch1# configure terminal
Switch1(config)# vlan 2
Switch1(config-vlan)# name Red
Switch1(config-vlan)# end
Switch1(config)# vlan 4
Switch1(config-vlan)# name Blue
Switch1(config-vlan)# end
Assign Ports Fe0 and Fe1 in VLAN 2
Switch1(config)# interface fastethernet0
Switch1(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch1(config-if)# end
Switch1(config)# interface fastethernet1
Switch1(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch1(config-if)# end
Assign Ports Fe2 and Fe03 in VLAN 4
Switch1(config)# interface fastethernet2
Switch1(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 4
Switch1(config-if)# end
Switch1(config)# interface fastethernet3
Switch1(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch1(config-if)# switchport access vlan 4
Switch1(config-if)# end
Create Trunk Port Fe4
Switch1(config)# interface fastethernet4
Switch1(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
Switch1(config-if)# switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
Switch1(config-if)# switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,4

Switch 2 Configuration:
Create VLANs 2 and 4 in the switch database
Switch2# configure terminal
Switch2(config)# vlan 2
Switch2(config-vlan)# name Red
Switch2(config-vlan)# end
Switch2(config)# vlan 4
Switch2(config-vlan)# name Blue
Switch2(config-vlan)# end
Assign Ports Fe1 and Fe6 in VLAN 2
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet1
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch2(config-if)# end
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet6
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
Switch2(config-if)# end
Assign Ports Fe0, Fe2, Fe3 and Fe5 in VLAN 4
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet0
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 4
Switch2(config-if)# end
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet2
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 4
Switch2(config-if)# end
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet3
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 4
Switch2(config-if)# end
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet5
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch2(config-if)# switchport access vlan 4
Switch2(config-if)# end
Create Trunk Port Fe7
Switch2(config)# interface fastethernet7
Switch2(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
Switch2(config-if)# switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

please any comments if configuration above correct?

SteveO86

Your preference really it all needs to be configured anyway.

also when configuring multiple interfaces with the same configuration I would use the interface range commands. It's easier.

don't forget about native vlan, obviously you can use default vlan 1 however it's better to use different vlan as a native.

on what simulator have you done this?
if it is packet tracer send the file to zee_naz@rediff.com
I'll try to help you.
