You have been hired as an assistant to the head network administrator in an ISP (Internet service provider). He wants you to disable the STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) in the demarc port of one of the clients in order to prevent the ISP's WAN topology from mixing with the corporate network's topology. Which of the following will you use in this scenario to complete the task at hand?

In the topology, Laptop 1 (Please assign an IP address from your design) sends a packet to Laptop 3 (Please assign an IP address from your design). Show the contents of the packets and frames at the network and data link layer respectively for each hop interface. You may assign any MAC address contains 12 Haxa Decimal Character at each hop interfaces between source and destination. A Sample MAC address is given in the topology.
Suppose you are the network security administrator of a well-known company. Your boss has established a deal with another company in another city and now a VPN is setup between the headquarters of two companies for secure communication. Your boss requires you to guarantee a minimum download and uploading speed. Answer the following questions: Do you think it is feasible to implement a VPN between the two companies having multiple sites? Which layer VPN would you prefer to implement? Why? Which type of VPN would you prefer to implement? Why? Which protocol would you use to implement the VPN? Why?
The SEU has deployed Routing Information Protocol (RIP) as their routing protocol. Recently, a User from Male Branch reports that he cannot access and retrieve files from the Remote Server located in central office. As the main administrator for the SEU, you receive news from another administrator in your team that the problem is with the RIP setup, and that he has given you routing tables for all routers on the network. Hint: Routing Information Protocol Tutorial: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst2960xr/software/15-2_5_e/configuration_guide/b_1525e_consolidated_2960xr_cg/routing_information_protocol.pdf Identify the error and suggest the necessary measures so that the user can access the remote server of the central office.
A router receives a packet from another network for device in the local network that the router serves. However, it does not know the MAC address the intended recipient, it only knows the device's current IP address. What protocol would be used by the router to identify the intended recipient's MAC address -- which is needed to complete Destination MAC field of the Ethernet frame that would be used to deliver the packet to the recipient? (the format of an Ethernet frame is illustrated below). Ethernet II Destination MAC Source MAC Туре 2 Bytes Data Frame Check Sequence 6 Bytes 6 Bytes 46 - 1500 Bytes 4 Bytes
Suppose there are two ISPS providing WiFi access in a particular café, with each ISP operating its own AP and having its own IP address block. A. Further suppose that by accident, each ISP has configured its AP to operate over channel 11. Will the 802.11 protocol completely break down in this situation? Discuss what happens when two stations, each associated with a different ISP, attempt to transmit at the same time. B. Now suppose that one AP operates over channel 1 and the other over channel 11. How do your answers change?

Host A sends a UDP datagram containing 8880 bytes of user data to host B over an Ethernet LAN. Ethernet frames may carry data up to 1500 bytes (i.e. MTU = 1500 bytes). Size of UDP header is 8 bytes and size of IP header is 20 bytes. There is no option field in IP header. How many total number of IP fragments will be transmitted and what will be the contents of offset field in the last fragment?
Let's say you're checking your inbox first thing on a Monday morning at BMCC and your messages get there. Assuming the website at BMCC does not know the MAC address of the machine where these emails are being read. Specifically, walk me through the steps used by the ARP protocol to determine which machine on the local area network will be receiving the incoming Internet data. After 22 years, IPv6 Addressing change for around 30% of Internet traffic is complete. If you look carefully at the TCP and IP headers for IPv4 to IPv6 addressing, you'll see that the Ethernet frames' Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) presents a problem for the transition.
At university, we have many international students, who when at university communicates with their parents in their home country via university's IP based network. Students nowadays typ- ically use Whattsapp for their communication needs. By just focusing on the main Router at university, map this Router's functionality to OSI layers. Remember that incorrect mapping means deduction of the points.
A simple CIDR routing table is shown in Figure 1. For each of the destination IP addresses below, indicate which entry in the table it matches. Indicating none if no routing entry can be matched (hint: given an IP packet, the router will check whether there is a routing entry which can be used to route this packet, by checking the destination IP address in the packet with each routing entry: based on the subnet mask of each routing entry, it can extract the network ID and compare it with each routing entry; if there are a few routing entries which can match, the entry with the longest subnet mask wins). Address Mask Output Port 10.19.0.0/16 1 10.19.128/17 2 10.19.192/18 3 10.19.192/19 4 0.0.0.0/1 5 141.219.2.10 10.10.10.10 10.19.86.141 10.19.193.6 10.19.255.86 10.19.192.18
Imagine you are the network administrator of University X having 10 campuses in Towson, Maryland. You want to build a connected network of servers (each server is either a regular or a routing one), one at each campus, and want to choose some of them to be the designated routing servers. A routing server will serve regular servers who connect directly to it via high speed cables, and every regular server must connect to at least one routing server. Your goal is to minimize the total length of high speed cable that you must purchase. Given the locations of the 10 campuses, design a plan that requires (1) the shortest length of cable and (2) the least number of routing servers.
Suppose you are retrieving your email at the start of a new day at the College and your mail first reaches the BMCC’s web server. Assuming the BMCC webserver does not have the MAC Address of the workstation receiving these mail messages. Explain in detail how the ARP protocol is used in locating the final destination of the internal network computer that will be receiving this Internet traffic. The conversion from IPv4 to IPv6 Addressing has been completed for about 30% of Internet traffic after 22 years. Explain in detail why the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) of Ethernet frames is an obstacle in this conversion (hint: look closely at the TCP and IP headers for IPv4 to IPv6 Addressing).
