Cisco Ipversity Lab 2 Writeup: Bamboozled by VoIP

Fix My Lab Challenge #2 (5-4-20)

Link to Lab: https://ipversity.com/fix-my-lab

I was so focused on the IP Phones I learned about them, and then realized they were bait. This video shows how to configure Cisco IP Phones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB4LiS2lIXo. You don't need to know, but its interesting anyway.

The Layer 3 Switch in Packet Tracer can't handle VoIP. A Router can. I looked on Youtube and found 0 vidoes on L3 Switches being the main source for VoIP. Its probably possible on GNS3 and physical equipment. Not so for Packet Tracer. The objectives never point out to fixing VoIP. The phones are just there to distract and trick you. Treat them like they are invisible. I never knew a connection could pass with a non-configured Cisco IP-Phone. I tried to enable "ip routing" on the L3 Switch and that did not turn the telephony option on. The initial config on the Switch ACTS as if VoIP will work, with DHCP set up for vlan 10 "DATA" and vlan 11 "VOICE". The creator is just trolling you lol.

Walk-through Spoilers

The first thing to do is ping 10.0.10.1 from PC0. No connection. Lets fix that first. Do a show run command on the Core L3 Switch.

The switchport allowed is a Security thing. That isn't required. We can allow vlan 10 and leave everything else off. We will do this for interfaces g1/0/1 and g1/0/2. Also create VLAN 10, name it DATA, and assign it an IP Address of 10.0.10.1

Now we will go over to Switch0 and see what the interfaces look like. Interface f0/1 also has a vlan10 issue. Lets allow that. Lets also put f0/2 on switchport mode access and switchport access vlan 10.

The next step is to fix Switch1 and PC1 on the other side. This side is also missing VLAN 10. Add vlan 10 to interface f0/2.

Yay now both PC0 and PC1 can ping each other. Lets fix DNS next. Both PC's are using Static IP Configuration. The DNS server is pointing to 10.0.12.11. It needs to point to 10.0.12.10.

Go into Core Switch and enable ip routing. This will allow inter-vlan communication to happen between MGMT 12 and DATA 10.

Since our DNS is pointing in the right direction and we can get to it, the webpage is now displayed.

Palo Alto for GNS3 CCDC Tutorial

Opening Hello fellow CCDC Competitors! Struggling to get a Palo-Alto VM? I know how you can get one! Email me at ASzampiasSWD@gmail.com. I'll tell you the steps to get a PA-VM for GNS3. Why am I giving this info to you? Wouldn't it make sense to hog the info to myself? Wouldn't my team have an advantage? There are have and have not universities when it comes to PaloAltos. I fell into the "have not" group. Our college didn't have access to PA-VMs and still doesn't. Even if PA Cybersecurity Academy is free, there is too much red tape. I can't change the outcome. I can only come up with this one solution. Another reason is Tri-C is a tryout team. I think its pretty unfair as a potential Firewall Admin I'm the only one with access. No one can challenge me unless they spend 2K for a PA-VM. It becomes a rich-person only position. I have a leftover PA-VM from 2018 I promised not to share. I couldn't share that with my challengers. But I f...

Trace Labs Global Missing Persons CTF V

Trace Labs CTF V TraceLabs hosted the Global Missing Persons CTF V event on July 11, 2020. My team //synergy got 64th place out of 190 teams. Introduction This was my first Trace Labs CTF. I captained a team. The good thing about being a captain is you can control who is on the team. My rules were: Must have sock puppet accounts ready. Must have a VPN. Writing out this is a competitive team where we work the entire 6 hours. I was worried about a future team member spamming submissions and disqualifying the team. I thought my requirements would eliminate people who weren't serious. The team hit 4 members Friday evening pretty quickly. Notes My laptop was too slow for this event. My virtual machine froze and I had to restart. Restarting means I have to login to my accounts again. I'll use my desktop next time. The team used Slack and Trello. Our strategy was to research a person and rotate every hour. This strategy broke after 1 rotation. Some missin...

Release of CCDC ISE Manager Website

I worked on the ISE (Inject Scoring Engine) website from 2017 to 2019. I made it to encourage teams to follow a merit-based, open admission tryout format. I identified a problem and made a solution for it. Problem: Call for Merit and Fairness on CCDC Rosters Solution: Github Project Solution: How to run a Team After Tri-C was finished with 2017 Midwest Wildcards I used httrack to grap the Inject PDF files. I didn't grap just the files, but the entire front-end code of the website. If you created the HTML and CSS of the original ISE website, tell me your name so I can give you credit! My goal was to make an almost-replica of the original. The database and back-end code is all guessing by me. I used a LAMP stack because I believe the original website is built on that. I did some fingerprinting and found the "ccdcadmin1" website was hosted on Apache and PHP. If you notice any bugs or errors let me know. If you want a feature added let me know. I will be working ...
