Q:

Why are multiple protocols used, such as a package, addressing, delivery, and transportation, instead of using one protocol defining everything?

Answer

Using multiple protocols is modular and allows changes to one protocol without affecting the others. For example, if the addressing protocol is dependent on the delivery protocol, changes to one would imply changes need to be made to the other.

Q:

Describe the difference between routing and switching.

Answer

Routing moves a letter or telephone call to the access layer (as in a street or telephone exchange). Switching makes the final delivery. A switching decision is made on the part of the address that is not used in routing (as in the street number or last four digits of a phone number).

Which three IP addresses can be assigned to hosts if the subnet mask is /27 and subnet zero is usable?

A. 10.15.32.17
B. 17.15.66.128
C. 66.55.128.1
D. 135.1.64.34
E. 129.33.192.192
F. 192.168.5.63

Answer

Answer : A C D


 


 


 


Explanation: If you follow the cram table,  /27 is mask 255.255.255.224. 3 bits were borrowed with value of 32. Follow the fourth octets of the addresses:
A is a usable host address.
B is classified as a network address
C is a usable host address form the subnet 0
D is a usable host address
E is a network address
F is a broadcast address

C. The hosts will be able to communicate with hosts outsides their own network
D. The hosts will only be able to communicate with other hosts by IP address not by host name

Answer

Q:

If one of the host connected to Sw-AC3 wants to send message to ip 190.0.2.5 (or any ip on a different subnet) what will be the destination MAC address ?

Answer

Answer and Explanation:


Because the destination address is on a different subnet from the switch, the packet will be forwarded to its default gateway. To verify the default gateway of this switch, use the show running-config command



From the output above, we can see that its default-gateway is 192.168.1.254. Which can be said to be a layer 3 device (router); in this case, the VLAN-R1 router. You can use the show cdp neighbor detail command verify further.



From the output above, you can confirm that the switch's default gateway is VLAN-R1 router (with the IP address of 192.168.1.254).The interface FastEthernet0/3 shows that the switch is directly connected to VLAN-R1 router through the switchport Fa0/3. To verify the MAC address associated this interface is interface, you use the show mac-address-table command:



Looking closely at the table above, you will discorver that the corresponding MAC address is 000a.b7e9.8360. Although there are some entries on port Fa0/3 with different Vlans ,but they have the same MAC address.
