Study Notes

  • To return to User EXEC mode from privileged EXEC mode issue the command disable
  • show interfaces displays configurable parameters and statistics for communication interfaces on a Cisco router
  • Routers connect different networks
  • Type enable to switch from user EXEC mode to privileged EXEC mode
  • Prompt displayed is > in user EXEC mode
  • Network layer addressing is hierarchical
  • When no VLANs are created on a new switch, the show vlan brief command will show one VLAN
  • Trunk ports can carry multiple VLAN traffic
  • The IP addressing, Layer 1, and Layer 2 status of an interface in a router shows using:
    • show ip interface
    • show protocols
    • show interfaces

User Exec Mode

  • Symbol > means you are in User EXEC mode
  • In User EXEC mode you can send a ping request to a remote IP host

VLANs

  • Switches are used to segment a LAN for better efficiency
  • Identified on network switches by a VLAN number

Interface Configuration

  • To configure the IP address on a router’s serial 0/0 interface, use the command within interface configuration mode

Router Bootup

  • The banner motd command sets informative messages displayed when a router boots up

Private IP address ranges are:

  • 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
  • Ethernet switches forward data based on the destination address
  • Bridges and switches function at the data link layer of the OSI model

Routing Failure

  • When a specific match isn't made, the router forwards the packet to a default route if one is present or drops the packet

At layer two:

  • Physical addressing and media access control occur

Routing vs Switching:

  • Switching sends IP packets across networks using the best path
  • Routers connect IP networks, act as a traffic cop to filter traffic based on destination IP address
  • Routers create multiple collision domains and broadcast domains

Hardware

  • The network functions at the router work at the layer of electricity

Commands to Disable CDP on an Interface

  • Router(config-if)#no cdp enable disables CDP on an interface
