[NFBCS] Accessibility of PacketTracer

[Brian Buhrow]

	hello Robert.  Yes, in general, routers and switches can be controlled via a terminal
interface, either via a serial port or via an ssh terminal connection.  Some of the lower end
equipment, i.e. Net Gear, D-link etc. must be configured through a browser, but all of the
enterprise equipment I'm aware of can be fully controlled through a terminal.

I'm not familiar with packet tracer, but I wonder if tcpdump, a command line packet capture
tool, can be used instead of packet tracer to complete the course work?  Tcpdump is fully
accessible via command line.

-thanks
