  • Hop count is used as the metric. Maximum of 15 hops
  • Can maintain up to 6 multiple paths to a network, only if the costs are the same. Support for 4 equal-cost routes is the default.
  • Routers automatically share routing info with other routers.
  • Less administration required.
  • For small-medium networks

Q

Access Link

A

One VLAN

49
Q

Trunk Links

A

Multiple VLANs

50
Q

VLAN

A
  • Broadcast domains defined by switch port, not network address
  • Switches come with default VLANs
  • All ports are members of VLAN 1 by default
  • Switches compared to Routers: are cheaper, easier to administer, and offer higher performance
  • Routers are still needed to: Filter WAN traffic, route between separate networks, and rote packets between VLANs
  • In a VLAN switched network, use 802.1q ,OR use devices of the same vendor
51
Q

A

Q

Trunking

A
  • Connecting two switches together

- Trunk ports usually use Gigabit ports but can use any ports

56
Q

ISL

A

(Inter-Switch Link)

  • Cisco proprietary trunking protocol
  • ISL tags each frame with the VLAN ID
57
Q

802.1q

A
  • IEEE standard for trunking, therefore is accepted by a wide range of devices
  • VLAN 1 frames are NOT tagged. All OTHER frames are tagged.
58
Q

DTP

A

(Dynamic Trunking Protocol)

- Allow switches to automatically detect and configure trunk ports

59
Q

Show interface trunking info

A

show interface trunk / show interface trunk

60
Q

switchport mode access

A
  • Disables trunking configuration on the port

- the Port acts as a single VLAN interface that sends/receives non-tagged frames

61
Q

switchport mode dynamic desirable

A
  • If switch is connected, the desired trunking protocol will be attempted to be used
  • If switch is NOT connected, it will act as a normal port
62
Q

switchport mode dynamic auto

A
  • Enables automatic trunking discovery and configuration

- The switch uses DTP to configure trunking

63
Q

switchport mode trunk

A
  • Enables unconditional trunking on the interface

- DTP will NOT be used

64
Q

switchport trunk native vlan

A
  • Configures the VLAN that is sending and receiving untagged traffic on the trunk port when the interface is in 802.1q trunking mode
  • Both interfaces need to have the same Native VLAN or traffic can’t be transmitted correctly on the trunk
65
Q

switchport trunk allowed vlan all
trunk allowed vlan add
trunk allowed vlan remove

A

Set which VLANs are allowed to communicate over the trunk.

66
Q

VTP

A

(VLAN Trunking Protocol)

- Propagates configuration changes to other switches in a multi-switch network

67
Q

The 3 Types of Routing Protocols

A
  1. Distance Vector
  2. Link State
  3. Hybrid
68
Q

Distance Vector

A
  • Peer-to-peer structure
  • Entire routing tables sent at regular intervals
  • Updates only sent to neighboring routers
  • Susceptible to routing loops
  • Long convergence time
  • Split horizon, route poisoning, hold down timers, and static routes prevent routing loops
69
Q

Distance Vector Method: Split Horizon

A
  • Remembers where information comes from and does not report route information back to routers on that path
70
Q

Distance Vector Method: Poison Reverse

A
  • Routers advertise an unreachable path when sending route info back to the path they heard it from
71
Q

Distance Vector Method: Triggered Updates

A

(also known as Flash Updates)
- Routers that receive updated information broadcast those changes immediately, instead of waiting for next reporting interval

72
Q

Distance Vector Method: Hold-downs

A
  • Routers hold an update that reinstates an expired link for a period of time
73
Q

Link State

A
  • Hierarchical structure
  • No routing loops and Less convergence
  • Flooding (routers broadcast LSPs to all routers)
  • LSPs are sent in regular intervals when there’s a new neighbor, when a neighbor has gone down, or the cost to a neighbor has changed
  • Routers send route info only about their own links
  • “Hello” packets are sent to discover new neighbors
  • Constructs a SPF tree logical topology of the network
  • Uses areas, time stamps, sequence numbers, aging timers, and designated routers
74
Q

Hop Count

A

The number of routers between a source network and the destination network.

75
Q

Passive Interface

A

Prevents routing update messages from being sent through the interface.

76
