Network Switches
"Switching" Roles
VLANs
Routing Concepts
Static Routing
100
The type of network that a school would most likely use
What is a Local Area Network (LAN)
100
A switch goes through this when it is first turned on, as do most computers
What is Power on Self Test (POST)
100
VLAN is the acronym that stands for this
What is Virtual Local Area Network
100
A router forwards these between computer networks
What is data packets
100
This is the opposite of static routing, where networking routers are not configured manually
What is dynamic routing
200
The network layer that represents the edge of a network, allowing traffic to enter and exit at regular intervals
What is the Access Layer
200
This type of cable is used to connect a PC to the console port of a switch for configuration
What is a console cable
200
VLANs allow Network Administrators to group these together even if they are not on the same switch
What is Hosts
200
This is used to exchange information about destination addresses among routers
What is a dynamic routing protocol
200
Within static routing, if a link fails, the static route can not do this to traffic
What is reroute
300
A switch that does not support features or options beyond those that originally came with the switch
What is a Fixed Configuration Switch
300
An IP address as well as this is configured on the management SVI of the switch from VLAN interface configuration mode
What is subnet mask
300
Daily Double! These are software-based virtual interfaces that are assigned to physical interfaces
What is Subinterfaces
300
In order to configure a specific interface, change to interface configuration mode from this mode
What is Global Configuration mode
300
An advantage of static routing is that these annoying displays are not sent, unlike in dynamic routing
What is advertisements
400
Although switches filter most frames based on MAC addresses, they do not filter these
What is Broadcast frames
400
This type of communication allows connected devices to send and receive at the same time
What is Full-Duplex
400
Regardless of the device used, the process of forwarding network traffic from one VLAN to another VLAN using routing is known as this
What is Inter-VLAN routing
400
Network devices can use the router as a this to access the devices connected to the other VLANs.
What is Gateway
400
Static routing can be used to define an exit point from a router when no other routes are available or necessary called this
What is a default route
500
Cisco LAN switches forward ethernet frames based on this
What is Destination MAC Address
500
The command dir flash: is used to determine this
What is directory of the flash memory
500
A VLAN is this, so that computers on separate VLANs are unable to communicate without the intervention of a routing device
What is Broadcast Domain
500
This is a type of router configuration in which a single physical interface routes traffic between multiple VLANs on a network
What is "Router-on-a-stick"
500
These are used by an network administrator to manually configure static routes
What is a routing table
