Q

What is the difference between VTP versions 1 and 2 vs. 3?

A
  • Versions 1 and 2 support VLANs 1 - 1005
  • Version 3 supports VLANs 1 - 4094
  • In VTP version 3 its not enough to be a VTP server, you also have to run the user exec command ‘vtp primary’

Q

What is a Client Request Advertisement?

A
  • Occurs when a switch with a lower revision number joins the domain and sees advertisements with higher revision numbers than it has
  • Client is asking for more detailed information.

Q

By default what operating mode do PAgP ports operate in?

A

Silent mode

22
Q

What does PAgP silent mode do?

A

It allows formation of an Etherchannel even though the other side might not be PAgP

23
Q

What does PAgP non-silent mode do?

A

Requires a port to receive a PAgP packet before adding it to an Etherchannel.

24
Q

Which PAgP mode forms an Etherchannel faster - silent or non-silent?

A

Non-silent mode

25
How often does standard LACP send out LACP packets?
Every 30 seconds.
26
How often does LACP Fast send out packets?
Once every second.
27
What state will an LACP port channel be in when the minimum number of links is not met?
Not in Use
28
When configuring an LACP port channel for minumum number of links does that configuration need to be made on both sides?
No, but it is recommended.
29
What is a reason for configuring a minimum number of links in an Etherchannel?
To accommodate load-balancing hashes
30
In LACP where does the maximum number of interfaces need to be configured?
Only on the master switch but best practices say on both switches
31
How does the Master switch determine which member interfaces to make active when there are more than the maximum interfaces available?
By examining the LACP Port Priority. Lower priority is preferred. If there is a tie then lower interface number is preferred.
32
In LACP what determines which switch is the Master Switch?
The master switch is the switch with the lowest LACP System Priority.
33
How is the LACP System Priority configured?
SW1#config t SW1(config)#lacp system-priority 1
34
What role does LACP Port Priority play?
It allows the Master LACP switch to determine which interfaces are active when there are more than the maximum number in the LACP port channel.
35
What 9 parameters must match in order for interfaces to be members of the same port channel?
* Load Interval * Storm Control * Speed * Duplex * Access/Trunk * Native VLAN * Allowed VLANs * L2 / L3 * MTU
36
When troubleshooting an Etherchannel what 5 things should be checked?
* Between 2 devices only * All member ports are up/up * Both ends are statically configured with LACP/PAgP active on at least one side * All member ports are configured exactly the same * LACP or PAgP packets are being exchanged
37
How is Load Balancing done on an Etherchannel?
Based on a Hash which runs on various packet header fields.
38
What 5 things can the load balancing Hash be based on to Load Balance on an Etherchannel?
* MAC * IP Address * TCP/UDP * IP Address and TCP/UDP * Source or Destination
39
Is the Load Balancing method specific to a port channel or to the system?
The system.
40
Why should Etherchannels be configured in multiples of 2?
To make Load Balancing more effective.
41
Which protocol allows you to specify the maximum number of links in an Etherchannel?
LACP
