The Logical Workspace: Customizing Icons and Backgrounds (BG)

Using Custom Icons

Icons that represent devices in Packet Tracer in both Logical and Physical mode can now be customized to an individual users taste. The images used for Physical and Logical mode can be differently customized or the default image can be used for either Logical or Physical with the other being customized. A customized icon must be created by an external painting type of program and saved as either a .PNG or .JPG file. The recommend size of a custom icon is 45 x 31 pixels. If the graphic is of a different size, Packet Tracer will automatically resize the image to fit. So to maintain the best graphic control of the icons it is best to follow the recommended size.

To change an icon for a device, click on the device, which brings up the device configuration pop-up window. On the Physical Configuration Tab below the device image there are two buttons. One changes the icon in Logical Workspace, the other changes the icon in Physical Workspace. To change an icon image in the Logical Workspace follow these steps:

• Click on the device to be customized.
• Click on the Customize Icon in Logical View button.
• Select the image you want by clicking on it or use the browse button to navigate to a new directory and select the image.
• Click on the OK button.

The new icon image is used in place of the default on the Logical Workspace. To change the image back to the default, follow these steps.

• Click on the device to be customized.
• Click on the Customize Image in Logical View button.
• Click on the Reset button.

Configuring Clouds on Packet Tracer

The Config tab offers three general levels of configuration: global, connections, and interface. To configure at the global level, press the GLOBAL button to expand the Settings button (if it has not already been expanded). To configure connections, press the CONNECTIONS button to expand the list of connections, and then choose the connection. To configure an interface, press the INTERFACE button to expand the list of interfaces, and then choose the interface.

Global Settings
The only global setting available for a cloud is its display name.

Connection Settings
You can use the Frame Relay sub-panel to establish Frame Relay connections between sub-links on the ports of the cloud. Configure DLCIs on the serial interfaces first. Then, from the left side, choose a port and one of its sub-links. Then from the right side, choose another port and one of its sub-links. Press the Add button to make a connection between those two sub-links. The connection will now appear on the list. You can remove a connection from the list with the Remove button.
You can also use the DSL or Cable sub-panel to establish connections between modem ports (for DSL) or coaxial ports (for Cable) on the cloud to the Ethernet ports on the cloud. To establish a DSL connection, choose the appropriate modem port on the left-side drop down menu and on the right-side drop down menu choose an Ethernet port which has its Provider Network set to DSL. Press the Add button to make the connection. You can remove a connection from the list with the Remove button. To establish a Cable connection, choose the appropriate coaxial port on the left-side drop down menu and on the right-side choose an Ethernet port which has its Provider Network set to Cable.

Interface Configuration
Clouds can support four interface types: modem, Ethernet, coaxial, and serial. For a modem port, you can set a Phone Number which another device with a modem port can dial. For an Ethernet port, you can set the Provider Network to either DSL or Cable. For a coaxial port, there are no settings to configure. For a serial port, you can toggle its Port Status, choose an LMI (ANSI, Cisco, or Q933a), and assign DLCIs to the interface. To add a DLCI, enter an identifying number and a name for it, and then press the Add button to add it to the list. You can remove a DLCI from the port with the Remove button.
