What is a VLAN?
An administratively defined subset of switch ports that are in the same broadcast domain. By creating multiple VLANs, the switches create multiple broadcast domains.
134
What is the best practice for VLANs and IPs?
Best practices dictate a one-to-one relationship between VLANs and IP subnets. It is possible to put multiple subnets in one VLAN, and use secondary IP addresses on routers to route between the VLANs and subnets. Also, although not typically done, you can design a network to use one subnet on multiple VLANs, and use routers with proxy ARP enabled to forward traffic between hosts in those VLANs.

vlan database
140
What are the commands to create a VLAN in configuration mode?
(config)# vlan

191
What is PPPoE?
Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. A convention often used as the data link protocol over Cable in which Ethernet is used as the data link protocol, but with PPP being encapsulated inside Ethernet. The combination gives the data link features of both Ethernet and PPP, in particular, the ability to forward the layer 2 Ethernet frames to the correct router, plus PPP authentication function of CHAP.

Defined in IEEE 802.1d, a protocol used on LAN bridges and switches to dynamically define a logical network topology that allows all devices to be reached, but prevents the formation of loops
195
Which STP setting determines how long a nonroot switch waits before trying to choose a new Root Port?
Maxage timer setting on the Root
196
Assume that a nonroot 802.1d switch receives a Hello BPDU with the TCN flag set. Which STP setting determines how long the nonroot switch waits before timing out CAM entries?
When receiving a Hello with TCN set, the non-root switch uses an aggressive time-out value for CAM entries based on the advertised Forward Delay timer on the Root
197
Assume that nonroot SW1 is blocking on a 802.1Q trunk connected to SW2. Both switches are in the same MST region. SW1 ceases to receive Hellos from SW2. What timers have an impact on how long SW1 takes to both become the Designated Port on that link and reach forwarding state?
Hello timer and Forward Delay timer settings on the Root. MST uses RSTP; RSTP waits three times the Hello time, as advertised in the Hello BPDU, before deciding to act.
199
by sending a TCN BPDU. Why the notification is needed?
To trigger the process that causes all switches to use a short timer to help flush the CAM.
