Logical and physical workspaces

The logical workspace allows student to get a global view of the network through realtime or simulaton mode. The devices are added, linked, and configured on this workspace.

The physical workspace gives a physical dimension to the logical network topology. This workspace is particulary important for wireless labs, where the distance parameter is one of the factors that determine if a device is able to connect or not connect to another device. The physical workspace is divided into four layers to reflect the physical scale of real life environments:

• Intercity,
• City,
• Building,
• Wiring Closet.

What’s the news?

PT 5.0 is CCNA-level simulation, visualization, and collaboration software free for all students, instructors, and alumni of the Cisco Networking Academy. Here we talk to its inventor, Dennis Frezzo, and find out all about the latest version.

Hi Dennis, Can you tell us why there was a need for a new version?

In a learning community as large as Cisco Networking Academy, there are many different requests to make PT support more protocols; devices; and curriculum, assessment, activity authoring, multiuser, and gaming features. We try to support the Discovery and Exploration courses, as well as a wide variety of related CCNA teaching and learning tasks.

How did you develop it?

PT 5.0 is based on prior versions of PT. It consists of over 400,000 lines of C++ code. It is not using real Cisco IOS; it is rather a medium-fidelity pedagogically-oriented model of the key features of networking protocols, networking devices, and the Cisco IOS. A small team based in San Jose, CA, consisting of interaction designers, educational psychologists, networking subject matter experts, and of course software engineers and programmers develops PT, though we are looking forward to more extensive community involvement in this development process in the years ahead.

as it trialled in the field and in academies before you took it to market?

Yes, a Beta Test on PT 5.0 was conducted from February to June 2008, and was well received.

What are the principal changes this time?

The new version greatly surpasses the learning benefits of previous editions, providing new opportunities for creativity and interactivity in the classroom. New features include:

* Additional support for an expanded list of platforms which now includes Windows (Windows XP, Windows 2000, Vista Home Basic and Vista Home Premium) and Linux (Ubuntu and Fedora).
* Additional support for an expanded list of protocols, including IP version 6, multi-area Open Shortest Path First, route redistribution, Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, Secure Shell and multilayer switching.

Multi-user functionality supporting collaboration, competition, remote instructor-student interaction, social networking and gaming.
How often will you continue to update Packet Tracer moving forward?

We plan on major releases once a year; maintenance releases at the 6 month intervals in between.
What is the benefit of a simulator?

Simulators are not meant to replace experience with real equipment; however they have several key benefits.

First, every student can have access not just to their own device, but to their own entire network on which to practice–simulators are inherently student-centric in allowing students nearly unlimited access to virtual devices.

Second, since PT simulates with good fidelity the “physics of CCNA-level protocols and devices”, every student can build their own “microworld” as customized or complex as their curiosity dictates and pursue their own lines of inquiry and “what if” questions.

Third, in a simulator, you can add many visualization features, such as the animated packet “envelopes”, which can then be opened and the PDU processing and protocol details explored in further depth.

Finally, simulation software running on multiple machines can been interconnected with multiuser features for practice, cooperative and competitive activities, and of course games.

packet tracer 5.3.1

Packet Tracer Version 5.3.1 Software Downloads

Packet Tracer version 5.3.1 is a maintenance release that fixes functional and technical issues in previous versions. It replaces Packet Tracer version 5.3

Packet Tracer 5.3.1 supports activities authored in Packet Tracer 4.0, 4.1, 4.11, 5.0, 5.1, 5.2.x and 5.3. Please note that the last two courses of the CCNA Discovery and CCNA Exploration curricula require Packet Tracer version 4.11 at a minimum, CCNA Security requires version 5.2 at a minimum, and the beta Packet Tracer Skills Based Assessments require version 5.2.1 at a minimum. The curricula are fully compatible with Packet Tracer 5.3.1

You can download both the Packet Tracer application and tutorial files in one download package. However, due to the large file size it is faster to download the application by itself, if that is all you need. Choose the download option appropriate for your needs.
