Question
Can you help me draw this Ethernet Lan?

Transcribed Image Text:drawing of an Ethernet LAN that will use more than one version of the 802.3 standard and will
include some legacy equipment. Label each broadcast domain, collision domain and Ethernet type.
1. Add a Title.
Also include a Textbox with identifying information.
2. On the left side of your paper, draw a hub and label it "Hub A".
3. Draw lines connecting Hub A to three other workstation. Label the line "10Base-T".
4. Draw a switch (up and to the right of the hub) and label it "Switch A" Then draw a line connecting Hub A to Switch A. Label
the line "10Base-T".
5. In the middle of the page (up and to the right of the switch), draw a Router. Label it "Router A".
6. Draw a line connecting Switch A to Router A. Label the line "100Base-T".
7. Draw several clients-2 tower desktops, two printers, 4 laptops, and a server and connecting lines to Switch A.. Label the lines
"100Base-T".
8. Draw a second router to the right of Router A (not too far). Label this "Router B".
9. Draw a line connecting the 2 routers and label the line "1000Base-T".
10. On the right side of the page draw a mirror image of the LAN on the left-Replacing the As with Bs.
11. Make of copy of your LAN drawing and paste it on page 2 & 3 sheets before you proceed.
12. On your page 2 drawing, change the title: Ethernet LAN with Collision and Broadcast Domains.
Circle and label each
separate collision domain. How many are there? (Either label them or state it in a text box next to one of the collision
domains.).
13. On your drawing, circle and label each separate broadcast domain. How many are there? (Either label them or state it in a text
box next to one of the broadcast domains.)
14. Based on what you know about Ethernet and CSMA/CD and assuming all workstations and servers on the network are
generating approximately equal portions of traffic while printers generate less traffic, what portions of the network you've
drawn will likely experience the highest number of collisions? Which will experience the least? Answer these questions in a
text box on the drawing-label it #14
15. What type of backbone does this LAN use? Answer these questions in a text box on the drawing-label it #15.9
16. If you were designing a new LAN, what pieces of the network that you drew would you change or replace? What equipment
and wiring upgrades would your recommendations require? Answer these questions in a text box on the drawing-label it
#16. (This can be on either page 2 or page 3).

- Ethernet, for example, is a connectionless protocol that specifies the path taken by a packet between its source and destination addresses. However, a protocol that is connection-oriented, such as ATM, specifies the path taken by a cell using virtual connection IDs (VPIs and VCIs).
