All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential §4.1 •Discuss the components of converged networks. •Provide examples of two-tier and three-tier network design. Evaluate your own organization’s design. Invite your IT department to present to the class. •Visit a network wiring closet to identify distribution and access layer switches. §4.2 •Create a simple switched network in Packet Tracer and demonstrate how a switch builds it’s MAC addresses table. •Recommend that students watch the video on page 4.2.1.2 to reinforce their understanding. •Emphasize that switches build their tables based on the source addresses of incoming frames. • • § § § § § Chapter 4: Best Practices (Cont.) ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.

Create a topology with a hub and several PCs, send a ping from one PC to another and show how messages are handled. Replace the hub with a switch, repeat the simulation and note the differences. •Discuss how switches prevent collisions but do forward broadcasts. •Draw various network topologies and have students identify the collision domains and the broadcast domains. •Recommend that students do the interactive activity 4.2.2.4 to reinforce their understanding. • • • • § § § § § Chapter 4: Best Practices (Cont.) ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.

Cisco Confidential Converged Networks Access, Distribution, and Core Layers §Access Layer – provides network access to the user. §Distribution Layer - interfaces between the access layer and the core layer. Provides functions such as: •aggregating Layer 2 broadcast domains and Layer 3 routing boundaries. •providing intelligent switching, routing, and network access policy functions to access the rest of the network. §Core Layer - is the network backbone. It provides fault isolation and high-speed backbone connectivity. • • • • • • • • • Routing and Switching Essentials - Mozilla Firefox Smaller networks that do not need a separate distribution and core layer often use a two-tier campus or collapsed core network design. 4.1 – LAN Design 4.1.1 – Converged Networks 4.1.1.5 – Access, Distribution, and Core Layers ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.

Cisco Confidential Frame Forwarding Switching as a General Concept in Networking and Telecommunications §A LAN switch makes decisions based on two criteria: •Ingress port - where a frame enters the device •Destination address §A LAN switch maintains a table that it uses to determine how to forward traffic. §In the diagram, If a message enters switch port 1 with a destination address of EA, then the switch forwards the traffic out port 4. §Layer 2 Ethernet switches forward frames based on the destination MAC address. • • • • • • • • Routing and Switching Essentials - Mozilla Firefox 4.2 – The Switched Environment 4.2.1 – Frame Forwarding 4.2.1.1 – Switching as a General Concept in Networking and Telecommunications ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.

All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential Frame Forwarding Store-and-Forward Switching §Features of Store-and-Forward Switching: •Error Checking– After receiving the entire frame, the switch compares the frame-check-sequence (FCS) value in the last field against its own FCS calculations. Only error-free frames are forwarded •Automatic Buffering– ingress port buffering provides the flexibility to support any mix of Ethernet speeds. §Store-and-Forward is Cisco’s primary LAN switching method. • Routing and Switching Essentials - Mozilla Firefox 4.2 – The Switched Environment 4.2.1 – Frame Forwarding 4.2.1.4 – Store-and-Forward Switching ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential Frame Forwarding Cut-Through Switching §Rapid Frame Forwarding - The switch can make a forwarding decision as soon as it has looked up the destination MAC address. •Frames with errors are forwarded. §Fragment Free - modified form of cut-through switching. The switch waits for the collision window (64 bytes) to pass before forwarding the frame. •Provides better error checking than cut-through, with practically no increase in latency. • • Routing and Switching Essentials - Mozilla Firefox 4.2 – The Switched Environment 4.2.1 – Frame Forwarding 4.2.1.5 – Cut-Through Switching ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.

Cisco Confidential Switching Domains Collision Domains §In hub-based Ethernet segments, network devices compete for the medium, therefore collisions will occur. §Ethernet switch ports operating in full duplex eliminate collisions. §Ethernet switch ports will autonegotiate full-duplex if connected to full-duplex device. §If connected to a half-duplex device then the switch port will operate in half duplex and be part of a collision domain. § • • Routing and Switching Essentials - Mozilla Firefox 4.2 – The Switched Environment 4.2.2 – Switching Domains 4.2.2.1 – Collision Domains ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential Switching Domains Broadcast Domains §One switch or multiple interconnected switches form a single broadcast domain. §When a switch receives a broadcast frame, it forwards the frame out each of its ports, except the ingress port where the broadcast frame was received. §When two switches or more switches are connected together, the broadcast domain is increased because the broadcast is propagated from switch to switch. §Too many broadcasts can cause network congestion. • • Routing and Switching Essentials - Mozilla Firefox 4.2 – The Switched Environment 4.2.2 – Switching Domains 4.2.2.2 – Broadcast Domains ‹#› © 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.
