Tutorial 2

1. What is a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)?

2. List the benefit of using VLANs.

3. Introduce a default VLAN.

4. Explain the following types of VLANs.


(i) Data VLAN

(ii) Native VLAN

(iii) Management VLAN

5. Fill in the blank.

6. Compare a Normal range VLAN to an Extended VLAN.

7. During the configuration of a fixed form factor switch with 24 Fast Ethernet and 2 Gigabit
Ethernet ports, you noticed the VLAN table of this switch shows the following listing.

Illustrate TWO (2) possible conclusions that you can obtain from the listing of the VLAN
table shown in Figure 1-2. (6 marks)

8. A switch port has been configured as with commands as shown in Figure 1-3. How to reset a
trunk port to default state?

Switch(config-if)#int f0/3
Where is f0/1 and g0/1?
Switch(config-if)#switchport mode trunk
F0/1 and g0/1 is missing.trunk native vlan 88
Switch(config-if)#switchport
Switch(config-if)#switchport trunk allowed vlan 88,100,110,120
Switch(config-if)#end

9. Based on the following topology and configuration files, identify the reason why PC1 cannot
ping to the server.

10. As a network associate, you have been assigned to troubleshoot a misconfigured VLAN
network. The topology and the configurations of the VLAN network are shown in Figure 2-1
and Table 2-1 respectively. Your objectives are to locate and correct errors in the
configurations and establish end-to-end connectivity between PCA and PCB which are in
VLAN 10.  Document the problems discovered and potential solutions using the template
shown in Table 2-2.
