Question: It's a Cisco Packet Tracer-based activity. Please open the downloaded file in packet tracer to see two windows-one window with the network diagram and the other with the instructions to complete the activity. As you successfully finish all the tasks, completion will show 100%. Please do not forget to save the file before closing it; otherwise, the completion percentage will revert to the Initial percentage value, and you will not get any marks.
Only submit the saved completed packet tracer file.
Task 1: Access to R1, R2, and R3 routers should only be permitted from PC-C, the management station. PC-C is also used for connectivity testing to PC-A, a server providing DNS, SMTP, FTP, and HTTPS services.
The standard operating procedure is to apply ACLs on edge routers to mitigate common threats based on source and destination IP addresses. In this lab activity, you will create ACLs on edge routers R1 and R3 to achieve this goal. You will then verify ACL functionality from internal and external hosts.

Task 2: ZPFs are the latest development in the evolution of Cisco firewall technologies. In this activity, you will configure a basic ZPF on an edge router R3 that allows internal hosts access to external resources and blocks external hosts from accessing internal resources. You will then verify firewall functionality from internal and external hosts.
Task 3: Your task is to enable IPS on R1 to scan traffic entering the 192.168.1.0 network.
The server labeled Syslog is used to log IPS messages. You must configure the router to identify the syslog server to receive logging messages. Displaying the correct time and date in syslog messages is vital when using syslog to monitor the network. Set the clock and configure the timestamp service for logging on the routers. Finally, enable IPS to produce an alert and drop ICMP echo reply packets inline.
