VTP/DTP/Etherchannel/Trunk services Flashcards

1
Q

What is DTP

A

**Manages trunk connections. Dynamic Trunking Protocol - negotiates interfaces as trunk or access port. Link-Layer protocol. Negotiates trunking on a link between two-VLAN aware switches. Dynamically forms trunk links.

Q

Tagged and untagged

A

Remember, an access interface does not understand tagged traffic. Trunk interfaces do, however.

Q

How does DTP work?

A

Based on the remote port, it automatically updates the configuration of the local trunk port. It uses DTP messages to identify the remote port.

Q

On or Trunk mode

A

it always assumes the remote port is a trunk port. This is bad, because if it is an access port, traffic will be dropped.

Q

Desirable

A

It starts the local port in access mode. It generates DTP messages and sends them to the remote port. If it receives DTP messages (reply) back, it assumes the remote port is a trunk port and changes the local port to trunk status.

Q

Auto

A

Starts local port in access mode and passively listens for DTP messages from the remote site. If it receives DTP messages from the remote port, it assumes it is a trunk port and changes its own local port to trunk.

Q

What is a trunk link?

A

Carries traffic from multiple VLANs. It transports the traffic with VLAN information.

Q

What is an access link?

A

Carries the traffic of only one VLAN. Transports traffic with no VLAN information.

Q

Tidbits of info on Access links

A

Removes all VLAN information from frames before forwarding them…unlike trunk frames. By default, all switchports are access ports.

Q

What are the fields of the 802.1q header?

A

TPID (Tag Protocol identifier) and TCI (Tag Control Information)

20
Q

What are the sub-fields of TCI?

A

PCP, DEI and VID

21
Q

What is the TPID field do?

A

Always set to 0x8100 - this indicates dot1q tagged

22
Q

What is the PCP sub field for TCI?

A

Priority Code Point, 3 bits, used for class of service which prioritizes traffic in congested network

23
Q

What is the DEI sub field for TCI?

A

1 bit, used to indicates frames that can be dropped if the network is congested

24
Q

What is the VID sub field for TCI?

A

12 bits, indicates the VLAN the frame belongs to

26
Q

VTP

A

Vlan Trunking Protocol

27
Q

What is VTP and why is it important

A

It allows you to manage VLANs from a centralized switch.

28
Q

What are the three modes?

A

Server, client and transparent

29
Q

What is a VTP domain?

A

A VTP domain is a group of switches that share VTP information.

30
Q

What is sever mode?

A

Allows you to add, modify, and delete VLANs. Uses the configuration revision number to compare changes, make changes. It uses the configuration revision number, and advertise it via VTP messages to other switches. Can save VLAN to NVRAM

31
Q

What is client mode?

A

Depends on VTP server for VLAN information. It can not make any changes in VLAN information itself. Does not generate VTP messages.

32
Q

What is transparent mode?

A

Locally significant, therefore it can add, modify, and delete VLANs. Propagates VTP messages, and saves VLANs to NVRAM.

33
Q

What are the three protocols?

A

PAgP, LACP, Static Etherchannel

35
Q

Etherchannel - what is it

A

Algorithm used for load-balancing. Selection criteria based on: source mac, destination mac, source IP, destination IP, source and destination MAC/IP.

36
Q

What is PAgP?

A

dynamically negotiates the creation/maintenance of the EtherChannel

37
Q

What is LACP?

A

Same thing as PAgP

38
Q

What is static?

A

Interfaces are statically configured to form an etherchannel

39
Q

What are the five modes to determine which protocol is used?

A

On, auto, passive, active and desirable

40
Q

Easy one first - on mode?

A

Enables etherchannel only

41
Q

Active mode?

A

enable LACP unconditionally

42
Q

Auto mode?

A

enable PAgP only if PAgP is detected

43
Q

Desirable mode?

A

enables PAgP unconditionally

44
Q

Passive mode?

A

enables LACP only is LACP device is detected

45
Q

PAgP: desirable vs desirable/ auto vs auto / auto vs desirable

A

auto + auto = no , auto + desirable = yes, desirable + desirable = yes

46
Q

LACP: active + active, active + passive, passive + passive

A

active + active = yes, active + passive = yes, passive + passive = no
