5.1.1
 Most
widely used LAN technology
 What
2 layers does it operate at?

Data link & physical
 What

are the 2 sublayers of the data link?
LLC & MAC
 IEEE
802.2
 Helps communicate with network layer
 Adds control info
 Performs it in software
 Encapsulates


Adds MAC addresses
Adds error detection to frame
 Media

Access Control
Placing the frames on the media
 Ethernet



the data
is a logical bus; physical star
Signal passes to all
Can send whenever
Can be collisions

Ethernet is contention-based/non-deterministic
Data contends or shares for a spot on the media
 Doesn’t know when it’ll get access to it


Listens for signal on media
No signal = transmit data
 Transmit at same time= collision


Devices do not keep track of whose turn it is

More collisions= less throughput

SOLUTION: CSMA/CD & CSMA/CA
 Listens

 If

for silence
Silence= transmit data
devices transmit at same time, collision
Backoff random time, listen for silence,
retransmit
 Collision
detection not a problem much
anymore

Using switches & full-duplex, this is not a
problem anymore
 Wireless
 Listen
for silence
 Sends Ready to Send message to AP
 Gets a Clear to Send message from AP
 Sends data
 Used
to identify frame
 Each host has a unique address

0xA4
with a 0x
 One

 One
to all in a network
 Dest. MAC address will be all F’s
 DHCP & ARP use broadcasts
 One
to a group in a network
 Remote gaming or video conference
 Dest. IP will be 224.0.0.0 -239.255.255.255
 Dest. MAC will begin with 01-00-5E
 5.1.3.6
 What
kind of message gets sent from one PC
to a group within a network?

Multicast
 Identify
each as unicast, multicast, or
broadcast:
5.1.4

MAC address
 Burned into NIC (DOES NOT CHANGE)
 Similar to the name of a person
 Physical address

IP address
 Similar to the address of a person
 Based on where the host is actually located
 Logical address

Both the physical MAC & logical IP addresses are
required for a computer to communicate just
like both the name and address of a person are
required to send a letter
 Destination
IP NEVER changes!
 Source & Destination MAC changes at each
router interface
 5.1.4.3
Wireshark
 How

do you change your MAC address?
Get a new NIC
T
or F. The destination IP address changes
during transmission.

False
 What
happens to the source & destination
MAC addresses as you go from router to
router across the Internet?

They change (router port substituted)
 What

LLC sublayer
 What

is a layer 2 address?
MAC address
 What

is IEEE 802.3?
Ethernet/MAC sublayer
 What

is IEEE 802.2?
is a layer 3 address?
IP address
5.2.1
 ARP


table of IP/MACs
Added from communication
Added from ARP requests
 You
have the dest. IP, not the MAC
 ARP request is all F’s where?

Destination MAC
 How

Broadcast
 Who

is an ARP request sent?
replies to the ARP request?
Only one with matching dest. IP
 Windows
Arp –a
 Cisco

router
Router# show ip arp
 If
you want to access a remote server, and
you don’t have the destination MAC, what
gets substituted for it?

The default gateway’s MAC address
A
router has ports with MAC addresses. How
do you view the router’s ARP table?

Router#sh ip arp
 What

does ARP find? What do you know?
Finds the dest. MAC; you know the dest. IP
5.2.2
 Broadcasts

It’s a broadcast. If many devices started at same
time, there’d be a flood of ARP requests which
would cause a reduction in performance for a
short period of time.
 Security


ARP poisoning (or spoofing)
Attacker forges MAC address to have frames
delivered to different computer
 Solution:
Use a switch
 Segments
network into smaller collision
domains
 Replies go to one device only
 Implement security too
5.3.1
 Full


duplex, Half duplex, Auto
Must match setting of device
Half duplex uses CSMA/CD to avoid collisions
 Cisco
uses cut-through switching

As soon as destination MAC is read, it forwards
the frame

Fast-forward


Lowest latency; in and out
Fragment-free



Store first 64 bytes before forwarding
Most errors & collision happen there (runts)
If it makes it through, should be error-free
 Complete

100Mbps and the other is 1000Mbps. What
speed will that connection operate at?


together?

computers on it. How many MAC addresses
will be in the table for that port?

5.3.2

Fixed Configuration Switch



Modular


Connected by special cable to act as one switch
Fixed may be stackable
PoE (Power over Ethernet)



Add-in cards/ports
Stackable



As is; no add-ons or changing
A 24 port switch will always be 24 ports
Delivers power to a device, like an IP phone
We use this in school
More $$, faster forwarding rate
 Which
type of switch can you add a card to
add more Ethernet ports or add fiber ports?

Modular
 You
bought a 24 port switch and cannot add
more ports to it. What kind of switch did you
buy?

Fixed
 You
have the switch above and need more
ports. You then buy more 24 port switches
and connect them with a special cable. What
kind of switch do you now have?

Fixed & stackable
5.3.3
 Looks

Combined with router functions
 Adds


like a switch
in router functions
Knows which IP addresses are out each port too
Fast
 Make


an Ethernet port a routed port
To connect to the ISP
Configure a port
 What
have we configured with an IP on a
switch?


address(es) does a layer 2 switch read?
address(es) does a layer 3 switch read?
IP & MAC
 You
want to connect your Layer 3 switch to
your ISP instead of using a regular router.

review
In this chapter, you learned:
 Ethernet is the most widely used LAN technology
used today.
 Ethernet standards define both the Layer 2
protocols and the Layer 1 technologies.
 The Ethernet frame structure adds headers and
trailers around the Layer 3 PDU to encapsulate
the message being sent.
 As an implementation of the IEEE 802.2/3
standards, the Ethernet frame provides MAC
addressing and error checking.
 Using switches in the local network has reduced
the probability of frame collisions in half-duplex
links.
The Layer 2 addressing provided by Ethernet
supports unicast, multicast, and broadcast
communications.
 Ethernet uses the ARP to determine the MAC
addresses of destinations and map them against
known IP addresses.
 Each node on a network has both a MAC address
and an IP address.
 The ARP protocol resolves IPv4 addresses to MAC
addresses and maintains a table of mappings.
 A Layer 2 switch builds a MAC address table that
it uses to make forwarding decisions.

 Layer
3 switches are also capable of
performing Layer 3 routing functions,
reducing the need for dedicated routers on a
LAN.
 Layer 3 switches have specialized switching
hardware so they can typically route data as
quickly as they can switch.
