Data Link Sublayers
• Logical Link Control (LLC) 802.2:- – Manages communications between devices over a single link
on a network– Uses Service Access Points (SAPs) to help lower layers talk to
the Network Layer.
• Media Access Control (MAC) 802.3:- – Builds frames from the 1’s and 0’s that the Physical Layer
(address = 6-byte/48 bit) picks up from the wire as a digital signal
– Runs a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) to assure no bits were lost or corrupted.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 11

ICMP
• ICMP– Supports packets containing error, control and
informational messages.– Ping uses ICMP to test network connectivity.
• ARP– Used to map an IP address to a physical (MAC)
address.• A host wishing to obtain a physical address
broadcasts an ARP request onto the TCP/IP network.• The host replies with its physical address.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 24
DNS• Resolves hostnames to IP addresses (not the
other way around).• To configure the router to use a host on the
network use the command:– ROUTER(config)#ip nameserver 4.2.2.2
• To configure DNS the command: ‘ip Name-server’ is usually already turned on for the router config by default.
• If you want hosts on the network to use the router as a proxy DNS server put this command onto the router:– ROUTER(config)#ip dns server
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 25
DHCP
• Involves a central server or device which relays TCP information to hosts on a network.
• You can configure a router to be a DHCP server with the below config
• Must have hosts on the same LAN as the router interface:
ROUTER(config)#ip dhcp pool E00_DHCP_Pool
ROUTER(dhcp-config)#network 10.10.10.0 255.255.255.0

Two types of crosstalk can occur on twisted pair
cables:• Near end crosstalk (NEXT)• Far end crosstalk (FEXT)
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 40
Router Management
• Console port:– A PC is connected to the console port via a rollover
cable.– Used for initial configuration or disaster recovery.
• Auxiliary port:– Normally a modem connected to this port.
• Virtual Terminals:– Normally accessed by telnetting to the router.– Five lines available numbered [vty] 0-4
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 41
Router Management
• TFTP server:– The router can get its configs or IOS from a server (PC
for example) running TFTP software and holding the necessary files.
• NMS:– Network management station– Uses SNMP to manage the router normally via a Web
style interface.

A LAN switch has three primary functions:
• 1. Address Learning– Maintains a table (CAM – Content Addressable Memory)
of addresses and which port they can be reached on.
• 2. Forward/filter decision– Forwards frames only out of the relevant port.
• 3. Loop avoidance– STP
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 47
Transmitting Frames Through a Switch
• Store-and-Forward– Switch copies the entire frame into its buffer and
computes the CRC– Frame is discarded if there is an error.– High latency.
• Cut-through– Reads only the destination address (first 6 bytes after
preamble), looks up address and forwards frame.– Lower latency.
• Fragment free– Switch reads first 64 bytes before forwarding the frame.– (Collisions normally occur within the first 64 bytes.)

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) IEEE 802.1d
• A link management protocol that provides path redundancy whilst preventing undesirable loops in the network
• For communication to work correctly on an ethernet network there can only be one path between two destinations.
• STP uses Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDU) received by all switches to determine the spanning-tree topology.
• A port on a switch is either in forwarding or blocking state.– Forwarding ports provide the lowest cost path to the root
bridge– A port will remain in blocking state from start up if spanning
tree determines there is a better path.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 49
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) IEEE 802.1w
• Spanning tree takes up to 50 seconds to converge to a stable network whereas RSTP takes 2 seconds.
• RSTP port roles are:– Root Port– Designated Port– Backup Port– Alternate Port– Disabled
• Most implementations of RSTP use PVST+ (Per VLAN Spanning Tree+):– Multiple instances of Spanning Tree are running so the load on
the CPU is higher but we can load share over the links.
• To enable RSTP for each VLAN in our switched network we use the following command:– Switch(config)#spanning-tree mode rapid-pvst
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 50
Bridging & Switching
• Switching– LAN Switches are primarily hardware based.– Many spanning-tree instances per switch and
up to 100 ports.
• Bridging– Bridges are primarily software based and have
one spanning-tree instance per bridge.– Normally 16 ports per bridge.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 51
Virtual LAN (VLAN)
• A VLAN is a switched network that consists of logically segmented communities without regard to physical location.
• Each port on a switch can belong to a VLAN.• VLAN ports share broadcasts.• A router is needed to route traffic between VLANs
because layer 2 devices do not use IP addresses.• Reduces admin costs, tighter security and better
control of broadcasts.

Distance Vector (1)• Distance Vector protocols understand the direction and
distance to any given network connections.• Algorithms calculate the cost to reach the connection
and pass this information to every neighbour router.• Examples are RIP and IGRP.• Problems:
– Routing loops– Counting to infinity
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 65
Distance Vector Solutions:• Defining a maximum number of hops:
– RIP = 15– IGRP = 255
• Split Horizon– If the router learns a route on an interface do not advertise it out of the
same interface.
• Route Poisoning– Information passed out of an interface is marked as unreachable by
setting the hop count to 16 (for RIP).
• Hold Down Timers– Ignores new routing updates until a determined time has passed.
• Triggered Updates– Instead of routing updates being sent at the default intervals; a
triggered update is sent every time to indicate a change in the routing table.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 66
Link state (1)• These have a picture of the entire network from
link state advertisements (LSA) and link State packets (LSP). Once these have all been passed only changes to the network are sent out reducing network traffic.
• Req a lot of CPU time & b/width when LSAs are flooded eg:– OSPF– IS-IS
• Routers use administrative distances to determine how believable the route learned is depending upon the protocol it learns the router from:– Routers prefer lowest distance eg:– Direct connection (0) >> OSPF (110) >> RIP (120)– Install this protocol in routing table
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 67
Link state (2)
• Routing Protocols– Maintain table of hosts– Which i/face they can be reached by– Eg: RIP, OSPF
• Routed Protocols– Used to transport traffic from source to destination– Eg: IP, IPX, AppleTalk
• When a packet traverses a n/work from device to device (hop to hop):– IP address = constant– MAC address changes
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 68
Source - Default Distance:
• Directly Connected Interface = 0• Static hop to next router = 1• EIGRP Summary = 5• External BGP = 20• EIGRP (Internal) = 90• OSPF = 110• IS-IS = 115• RIP = 120• Exterior Gateway Protocol (EGP) = 140• External EIGRP = 170• Internal BGP = 200• Unknown = 255

authentication
• Update timer 30 seconds
• Invalid 90 seconds• Hold down 180
seconds• Flush 270 seconds
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 71
EIGRP
• Uses IP protocol 88• Classless• Hybrid of distance vector and link state• Multicasts updates to 224.0.0.10• Uses feasible successors to determine alternative
routes to networks.• The feasible successor is a backup route based
upon the topology table.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 72
OSPF
• Uses IP protocol 89• Classless• Uses Dijkstras shortest
path algorithm (SFP)• Router ID is the
highest IP address but loopback address used if present
• Backbone area is area 0
• All non backbone areas must connect directly to area 0
• Areas can be numbered from 0 to 65535
• Multicasts on 224.0.0.5
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 73
OSPF Interface / Cost:• OSPF uses cost as a metric (see below - *
indicates the most common) [Cost (10^8/Bandwidth)] – ATM, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, FDDI (> 100
Mbps) = 1– HSSI (45Mbps) = 2– 16 Mbps Token Ring = 6– 10 Mbps Ethernet = 10– 4 Mbps Token Ring = 25– T1 (1.544 Mbps)* = 64– DS-0 (64k)* = 1562– 56k = 1785

NAT Facts
• Converts internal address to external address commonly:– Convert non-routable address to routable address
• For all configs you must specify internal & external i/faces– Router(config-if)#ip nat inside/outside
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 76
Static NAT
• Maps one address to another address such as 192.168.1.1 to 200.1.1.1Router(config)#ip nat inside source static 192.168.1.1 200.1.1.1
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 77
Dynamic NAT• Maps a number of internal addresses to a pool of
external addresses.• Example config:
– 1. Creates a pool of 10 addresses with a mask (prefix length) of 255.255.255.0 and the name ‘ad_team.’
– 2. The hosts to be NATted are on the 192.168.1.0 network.
– 3. The Access list (source list) tells the router which addresses to NAT.
Router(config)#ip nat pool ad_team 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.10 prefix-length 24
Router(config)#ip nat inside source list 1 pool ad_team out
Router(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 78
Overload NAT (PAT)• Maps private internal addresses to one or more
external addresses using port nos• Example config:
– Creates a pool of ten addresses (it could be more)– The command ‘overload’ tells the router to use port
address translation.Router(config)#ip nat pool ad_team 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.10 prefix-length 24
Router(config)#ip nat inside source list 1 pool ad_team out overload
Router(config)#access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255

Protecting the Network
• Firewalls– Divide your network into three zones:
• Trusted• Semi-Trusted• Un-Trusted
• VPN– Allows information to be sent securely over an insecure
medium (eg Internet)– Can be:
• Site-to-Site (eg WAN)• Access (eg homeworker)

Security Device Manager (SDM)
• A GUI web based tool• Allows you to configure and manage your Cisco
routers• Can be installed on your router or your PC• (Huge amount of parameters and screens to
navigate)

19. Wan Protocols and Services
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 99
HDLC
• Cisco default on serial WAN connections• No authentication available
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 100
PPP• Data link• Authentication is optional:
– PAP (clear text)– CHAP (secure hash)
• Use PPP if connecting a Cisco router to a non-cisco router.
• Router(config)#hostname paul password cisco <<- case sensitive
• Router(config)#interface serial 0• Router(config-if)#encapsulation ppp• Router(config-if)# ppp authentication chap

Frame Relay (1)
• Based upon x.25 protocol• Less error checking = quicker• 56K to 2Mb
– Ideal for SMEs
• Works at the physical & data link layers.• DLCI’s are used to identify the circuit
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 102
Frame Relay (2)
• Each router uses LMIs for keepalives on the line between the router & the frame relay switch:– LMI type is Cisco by default.– You must use another type such as ansi if connecting to a
non-cisco router.• Router(config-if)#encapsulation frame-relay
Router(config-if)#frame-relay map ip 2.2.2.2 100– Router is told to get to ip address 2.2.2.2 use dlci 100
• Use frame relay sub-interfaces if point-to-point or multipoint connection is needed– IP address applied to sub-interfaces for these and NOT the
main interface
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 103
Frame relay uses:
• Backwards Explicit Congestion Notification (BECN)– On returning frames to warn of congestion
• Forward Explicit Congestion Notification (FECN)– Is set by the DCE end to warn of congestion from the
sending end.

Frame Relay Problems include:
• Incorrect LMI setting• Incorrect DCLI• Split horizon preventing routing updates leaving
interface

Show ip interface brief
• First command to issue to establish if the interfaces are up or down
• (There are only a handful of ways to break any network in the exam.)

Layer 1
• Ensure that there is a clock rate on the DCE interface
• Show controllers serial X– To check what type of cable is attached– X = serial i/face no
• Ensure that the ‘no shut’ command has been applied to the interface.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 108
Layer 2
• Ensure that the correct encapsulation type is on the interface i.e. HDLC, PPP etc
• Show interface serial X• If it is not then go into interface configuration
mode and change it.
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 109
Layer 3
• Ensure that the correct IP address AND subnet mask is applied to the interface.
• Ensure that the correct networks are being advertised by the routing protocol
• Show ip protocols
Created by Faruk Mamaniat – Based on Paul Browning’s CCNA Cram Guide 110
Warning!
• Always ensure that you can ping across directly connected router interfaces BEFORE applying routing protocols and access lists.
