Unit Practice and Quiz

What Did I Learn In This Unit?


• After a Cisco switch is powered on, it goes through a five-step boot sequence.
• The BOOT environment variable is set using the boot system global configuration mode command.
• Use the switch LEDs to monitor switch activity and performance: SYST, RPS, STAT, DUPLX, SPEED, and PoE.
• The boot loader provides access into the switch if the operating system cannot be used because of missing or damaged
system files.
• To prepare a switch for remote management access, the switch must be configured with an IP address and a subnet mask.
• To manage the switch from a remote network, the switch must be configured with a default gateway.
• Full-duplex communication increases effective bandwidth by allowing both ends of a connection to transmit and receive data
simultaneously.
• Switch ports can be manually configured with specific duplex and speed settings.
• Use autonegotiation when the speed and duplex settings of the device connecting to the port are unknown or may change.
• When auto-MDIX is enabled, the interface automatically detects the required cable connection type (straight-through or
crossover) and configures the connection appropriately.
Unit Practice and Quiz

What Did I Learn In This Unit? (Cont.)


• There are several show commands to use when verifying switch configurations.
• Telnet (using TCP port 23) is an older protocol that uses unsecure plaintext transmission of both the login authentication
(username and password) and the data transmitted between the communicating devices.
• SSH (using TCP port 22) provides security for remote connections by providing strong encryption when a device is
authenticated (username and password) and also for the transmitted data between the communicating devices.
• An IOS filename that includes the combination “k9” supports cryptographic features and capabilities.
• To configure SSH you must verify that the switch supports it, configure the IP domain, generate RSA key pairs, configure
use authentication, configure the VTY lines, and enable SSH version 2.
• To verify that SSH is operational, use the show ip ssh command to display the version and configuration data for SSH on
the device.
• The following initial configuration tasks should always be performed: name the device to distinguish it from other routers
and configure passwords, configure a banner to provide legal notification of unauthorized access, and save the changes
on a router.
Unit Practice and Quiz

What Did I Learn In This Unit? (Cont.)


• One distinguishing feature between switches and routers is the type of interfaces supported by each.
• Routers support LANs and WANs and can interconnect different types of networks; therefore, they support many
types of interfaces.
• The IPv4 loopback interface is a logical interface that is internal to the router. It is not assigned to a physical port
and can never be connected to any other device.
• Use the following commands to quickly identify the status of an interface: 
• show ip interface brief and show ipv6 interface brief to see summary all interfaces (IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and
operational status), 
• show running-config interface interface-id to see the commands applied to a specified interface, and 
• show ip route and show ipv6 route to see the contents of the IPv4 or IPv6 routing table stored in RAM.
• Filter show command output using the pipe (|) character. Use filter expressions: section, include, exclude, and
begin.
• By default, command history is enabled, and the system captures the last 10 command lines in its history buffer.
• Use the show history privileged EXEC command to display the contents of the buffer.

Frame Forwarding

• Ingress is the entry port, egress is the exit port.

• The switch builds a MAC address table to forward frames on the LAN.

• The switch can use either the store-and-forward or cut-through method of switch forwarding.

Switching Domains

• Ethernet ports in half-duplex will be a part of a collision domain.

• Full-duplex will eliminate collision domains.

• A switch will flood out all interfaces except the ingress port if the frame is a broadcast or if the unicast
destination MAC is unknown.

• Broadcast domains may be broken up by a layer 3 device, like a router.

• Switches extend broadcast domains, but can eliminate collision domains and relieve congestion.
