The serial interface is up but the line protocol is down. This indicates that while the physical layer connection is up, the data link layer is not establishing properly. Common reasons for this include:
- Mismatched encapsulation types on either end (e.g. one side PPP other side HDLC)
- Authentication failure if using PPP (e.g. wrong username/password)
- Layer 1 issues like clock rate mismatch if using HDLC
So in summary, the interface is physically up but the data link layer is failing to establish due to a configuration mismatch between the two directly connected routers.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Questions
1 . How to assign an IP address to the Router and configure it?
o Router(config)interface e 0 / s 0
Router(config-if)ip address <IP addr> <SNM>
Router(config-if)no shutdown
We assign our default-gateway as the IP address to the ethernet port.
When the router is switched ON, by default all the interfaces are administratively
down. To make the interfaces up we give no shutdown
2 . Why and where we use the clock rate?
o The serial line has two ends DTE and DCE. This line goes up and down when IP address
and no shutdown is configured on both sides and will be in asynchronous state always. To
synchronize the link clock rate should be configured at DCE end.
3 . How to find out the DCE end?
o Router#sh controllers s 0
4 . Difference between
Request timed out
Destination host unreachable
Reply from <ip add> : <byte= > time<xms TTL=xxx
o Request timed out
When the packet is lost in transition, we will get “request timed out” message.
o Destination host unreachable
If the host doesn’t know the route to the destination - “Destination unreachable”
message is displayed i.e., the specified address is not present in the routing table
o Reply from <ip add> : <byte= > time<xms TTL=xxx
Reply from the destination indicates that the connection exists
Time To Live (TTL) – a field in an IP header that indicates the no. of routers (hops) the
packet can cross. TTL for systems is 128 and for routers it is 255. If the destination is
not reached before the TTL expires, then the packet is dropped. This stops IP packets
from continuously circling around in the network looking for a home.

Questions
1. Difference between Static Routing & Dynamic Routing?
o In static routing, we are manually adding the destination network to our Routing table.
o In Dynamic Routing, the protocols build the routing table automatically.
2. Difference between RIP and IGRP?

Uses autonomous number system. Does not use autonomous number system.
Works only on Cisco routers. Works on multi-vendor routers.
Sends updates for every 90secs. Sends updates for every 30secs.

3 . What is Routing loop and when it occurs?
Distance-vector routing protocols sends routing table updates at regular intervals to keep
track of any changes in the Internetwork. Routing loops can occur when a network outage happens
and no router is updated with the change in routing table.
Ra Rb Rc Re
n/w 3 n/w 4 n/w 5
Rd
o Assume that the first update has been received by every router and now they are in the due
of 29sec.
o Now, the interface to Network 5 is down and also all routers know about Network 5.
Then Re prompts Rc to stop routing to Network 5 through it. But Ra, Rb and Rd don’t
know about Network 5 yet, so they keep sending the updates.
o Rc will be sending its update and cause Rb to stop routing to Network 5, but Ra and Rd
are not updated. To them, it appears that Network 5 is still available through Rb.
o Ra will continue to send its updates for every 30secs and unfortunately Rb and Rd
receives a message that Network 5 can be reached from Ra. So Rb and Rd sends the
information that Network 5 is available.
o Any packet destined for Network 5 will go from Ra to Rb and then back to Ra. This leads
to a routing loop.
3. Methods to avoid Routing loop?
Maximum hop count:
When the routing loop occurs, the hop count increases indefinitely each time a packet
passes through a router. To resolve this maximum hop count was defined. RIP permits hop count
up to 15, so anything that requires 16th hop will be considered as unreachable.
Split horizon:
Split horizon defines that the routing information cannot be sent back in the direction from
which it was received i.e., the routing protocol determines which interface a network route was
learned on and it won’t advertise the route back to that same interface.
20. Lab manual
Route poisoning:
This helps to avoid routing loops in a meshed structure even if split horizon works out. E.g.
when Network 5 goes down, Re initiates route poisoning by advertising Network 5 as 16 hops or
unreachable, this poisoning of the route to Network 5 keeps Rc from being susceptible to
incorrect updates about the route to Network 5. When Rc receives a route poisoning from Re; it
sends an update, called “Poison reverse” back to Re. This ensures all routes on the segment have
received the poisoned route information.
4. Define Hold down timer
o This sets the amount of time for which the routing information is suppressed. Routes will
enter into the hold down state, when an update packet is received indicating the route as
unreachable. This continues, either till it receives an update packet with a better metric or
till the hold down timer is expired. By default Hold down timer is for 180 seconds.
5. You type “debug ip rip” on your router console and see that 172.16.10.0 is being
advertised to you with a metric of 16. What does this mean?
o The route is inaccessible.
6. What command is used to stop RIP routing updates from exiting out an interface but still
receive RIP route updates?
o Router(config-router)#passive-interface s0
7. A network that is advertised by both RIP and IGRP appears in the routing table flagged
as an IGRP route. Why is the RIP route to this network not used in the routing table?
o IGRP has a lower administrative distance
8. Which parameters does IGRP use to find out the best path to a remote network?
o Bandwidth and Delay.
9. Which command displays RIP routing updates?
o Router#debug ip rip

ACCESS CONTROL LISTS (ACL)
In Out

LAN1 LAN2
30.0.0.0 10.0.0.0
An access list is a list of conditions that classify the packets (or) the packet definition).
Unauthorized access can be blocked by using access list. These lists can be used to
control the traffic passing through the router. Following are different types of access lists.
• Standard ACL - Access-list No.1-99
Action, ACL number, Source IP, SWCM (Source Wild Card Mask) are the parameters to
be considered while configuring standard ACL which considers only the source address when rules
are defined and to be checked.
Syntax:
R1(config)#Access-list <Al No> <Action> <SIP> <SWCM>
R1(config)#Access-list 5 deny 30.0.0.10 0.0.0.0
R1(config)#Access-list 5 permit 30.0.0.15 0.0.0.0 - Here it considers the source address only
Once you have defined the access-list, binding should be done at the interface
required (E0 or S0).
For an interface at any time there are maximum of two binding (in and out).
R1(config)#int e 0 / s0
R1(config-if)#ip Access-group 5 in/out
For binding we consider two directions: In & Out. This specifies the direction in which the
data packets are moving with respect to the Router.
• Extended ACL - Access-list No. 100-199
Action, ACL number, Source IP, SWCM (Source Wild Card Mask), Destination IP, DWCM,
Protocol, interface and the destination port number are the parameters considered while
configuring Extended ACL.

Questions
1 . Different types of Access lists?
o Standard Access Lists - Standard access list considers only the source address.
Deny/Permit actions are applied on the source address. Once the access list is defined,
binding can be done at any one of the interface (Ethernet or serial).
o Extended Access Lists - This considers source address, Destination address, protocol,
destination ports etc .In Extended access list we can specify the applications that are to be
permitted or denied from the source to destination.
o Named Access Lists - As the name suggests, we can define an access list using a
name instead of number wherein we can modify (or delete) the list by individual
conditions which is not possible in the numbered lists.
2 . Difference between numbered access lists and named access lists?
o In numbered access lists, if we try to delete an individual statement from the access list,
the whole list will be deleted. In named access lists, we can edit the list by individual
statement.
3 . what are the benefits provided by access control lists (ACLs)?
o ACL helps to define the packet parameters
o ACLs classify and organize network traffic
o ACLs provide IP route filtering
4 . Which command is required to apply an access list on a virtual terminal line of a
router?
o Router(config-line)# access-class 10 in
5 . Which single access list statement will combine all four of these statements into a
single statements that will have exactly the same effect?

Questions
33. Lab manual
1. What is NAT?
• Network Address Translation involves re-writing the source and destination address
of packets as they pass through a router. NAT is done in order to enable multiple hosts on
a private network to access the Internet using a single public IP address.
2. What does the Inside Global address represent in the configuration of NAT?
• A registered address that represents an inside host to an outside network
3. Why we use access-list in NAT?
• Access-list defines the range of the hosts that can access the global address.
4. A network technician at Mohans would like to implement NAT in the network shown

changes.
Types of network using OSPF
Broadcast (multi-access) networks provide a broadcast ability in which every single
broadcast is delivered to all nodes on the network. This can be avoided in OSPF by electing a DR
and BDR for each broadcast multi-access networks.
LSA LSA
LSA
Non-broadcast multi-access network allows for multi-access, but have no broadcast
ability. So, NBMA networks require special OSPF configuration to function properly and neighbor
relationships must be defined.

Point-to-point refers to a type of network topology consisting of a direct connection
between two routers that provides a single communication path. This type of configuration
eliminates the need for DRs or BDRs, but neighbors are discovered automatically.

• OSPF is designed to have a hierarchical structure as large networks are a bit difficult to
manage. This allows to decrease routing overhead and to confine n/w instability to single
area of n/w.
• OSPF must have an area 0 (backbone area) and all routers should connect to this area. But
routers (i.e., ABRs) that connect other areas to backbone area should have at least one
interface connecting to area 0.

Frame-relay switch
Y Y
Frame-relay is an example of a Packet Switched Network. This network enables
end-stations to dynamically share the existing connection
Frame relay connections are often given a Committed Information Rate (CIR) and an allowance
of burstable bandwidth known as the Extended Information Rate (EIR). The provider guarantees
that the connection will always support the CIR rate, and sometimes the EIR rate. Frames that are
sent in excess of the CIR are marked as "discard eligible" (DE) which means they can be dropped
when congestion occurs within the frame relay network. Frames sent in excess of the EIR are
dropped immediately.
Congestions in the network are reported by
1. FECN=Forward Explicit Congestion Notification bit
2. BECN=Backward Explicit Congestion Notification bit
3. DE=Discard Eligibility bit provides the network with a signal to determine which
frames to be discarded, when there is a congestion on the line. The Frame-relay
switch will discard frames with a DE value of 1 before discarding other frames.

Once Encapsulation Frame-relay is given, serial interface requests the Frame-relay switch for
the LMI type it uses and accordingly it changes. Then a DLCI is allocated to the link by the
Frame Relay Switch. Then inverse arp maps destination ip address to the link’s DLCI No.

Questions
1 . What is frame-relay?
56. Lab manual
o Frame-relay is an example of a Packet Switched Network. This network enables end-
stations to dynamically use the available bandwidth and share the connection. Frame relay
connections are often given a Committed Information Rate (CIR) and an allowance of
burst able bandwidth known as the Extended Information Rate (EIR). Frames that are sent
in excess of the CIR are marked as discard eligible(DE) which means they can be dropped
when congestion occur in the network
2 . What is Link Management Interface (LMI)?
o LMI manages the link between frame switch and the router WAN port. Once the line is
encapsulated to frame-relay, it requests frame switch which LMI it is using and accordingly
WAN port also changes.
3 . Difference between Inverse ARP, ARP & RARP
o Inverse ARP helps to map destination IP address to local DLCI number at the frame Switch
o ARP helps to get the MAC address from the corresponding IP address.
o RARP helps to get the IP address from the corresponding MAC address
4 . What is DLCI (Data Link Connection Identifier)?
o The DLCI serves to identify the virtual connection so that the receiving end knows which
information connection a frame belongs to.(Range=16 to 1007). This helps in Layer 2
identification.

Switch
65. Lab manual
1. Difference between Switch and Hub?
Switch Hub
Switch is a layer-2 component Hub is a layer-1 component
Switch learn MAC address Hub doesn’t learn MAC address
Has one Broadcast Domain Has one Broadcast domain
Has multiple collision domain Has only one collision domain
2 . Different forwarding trends in switch?
o Store & forward-- stores the frame, checks for the errors and forwards only the error
free frames.
o Cut-through – No error checking; just receives and forwards the frames.
o Fragment free – is also called as Modified Cut-through. The minimum ip packet size
is of 64 bytes. The 1st
64 bytes of frame is checked for errors, where this 64 bytes
include the frame header, Destination MAC add (DMAC), Source MAC add (SMAC)
and some data. So, if these 64 bytes seem to be a good frame set then it is forwarded or
else it dumps the packets.
3 . Facts of Vlans
o Vlan is created to avoid unnecessary broadcasts
o Vlans are created without changing the physical set up
o By default each switch is in vlan 1
o Only systems in same vlan will communicate
o For inter-vlan communication we need Router/Layer 3 Switch
o VLAN setup is controlled by VTP(VLAN Trunk Protocol)
4 . Difference between Access link and Trunk link?
o Systems are connected to the switch through the access link and the switches are
connected each other through the trunk links.
5 . Different Operating modes in switch?
66. Lab manual
o Server — By default, all switches are in Server mode.Vlans can configured in created in
this mode.
o Clients — No changes can be made in client mode.
o Transparent — will not take any condition; it just forwards the conditions to the other
switches.
6. Why spanning-tree Protocol is used?
o Spanning-tree Protocol is been run to avoid the routing loops in a switched network. It
elects the Root Bridge and the Non-Root Bridge with the help of bpdu. The one with the
lesser bpdu will be elected as the Root Bridge. Root Bridge will be having every port in
forwarding mode of a frame on interface.
7 . What does a switch do when it receives a frame on interface and destination address is
unknown?
o It floods the network with the frame looking for the device
8 . How to manually elect a switch as root bridge?
o We could manually elect a switch as root bridge by changing the priority as
Switch(config)#spanning-tree vlan1 priority<value>
8 . Different Spanning-tree port states?
o Blocking: It won’t forward frames, prevent looping and by defaults all ports are blocked.
o Listening: Listens no loop has formed on N/W before passing frame.
o Learning: Listens and learns all paths in the N/W and updates MAC table.
o Forwarding: Sends and receives frames.
o Disabled: Does not participate in forwarding frame.
9 . What are the different functions of Switch?
o Address Learning: Learns the source hardware/Mac address of each frame received and
stores it in MAC address table.
o Forwarding/Filtering Decision: When received a frame on an interface, switch looks the
destination hardware address and finds the exit interface in the MAC table.
o Loop Avoidance: When more connection are made on switch for redundancy, BC loops
occur. Spanning-tree Protocol is used to stop BC loops.
10 . What is the result of segmenting a network with a switch?
67. Lab manual
o It increases the number of collision domains and will be smaller collision domains
11 . What will occur if two Cisco LAN switches are connected with a single crossover cable?
o The switch port link lights will be green, indicating normal operation.
12 . What are the three distinct functions of layer 2 switching that increase available
bandwidth on the network?
• Address learning
• Forwarding and filtering
• Loop avoidance
o A
13 . What technology is used by Catalyst switches to resolve topology loops and ensure that
data flows properly through a single network path?
o Spanning Tree Protocol (STP )
14 . Your core switch needs to be set as the root bridge of your network. What will make our
core switch the root bridge?
o Setting the bridge priority to less than 32,768
15 . What purpose in a switched LAN does STP perform?
o Prevent switching loops in a network with redundant switched paths.
16 . Which LAN switch type waits for the collision window to pass before looking up the
destination hardware address in the MAC filter table and forwarding the frame?
o Fragment Free looks at the first 64 bytes of a frame to make sure a collision does not
occur. It is sometimes referred to as modified cut-through.
17 . When a new trunk link is configured on an IOS-based switch, which VLANs are allowed
over the link?
o By default, all Vlans are allowed on the trunk.
18 . What VTP mode allows you to change VLAN information on the switch?
o Server
19 . These two switches are not sharing VLAN information. From the output below,
68. Lab manual

VIRTUAL PRIVATE NETWORK (VPN)
69. Lab manual
A virtual private network (VPN) allows the creation of private networks across the
Internet. VPNs are used daily to give remote users and disjointed networks connectivity over a
public medium like the Internet instead of using more expensive permanent means.
Virtual private network is a method of encrypting point-to-point logical connections across a
public network, such as the Internet. This allows secure communications across a public network.

F. SDM (Security Device Manager)
o B and E
2. What are the 3 typical categories of VPNs?
Remote access VPNs
Site-to-site VPNs
Extranet VPNs
Remote access VPNs allow remote users like telecommuters to securely access the corporate
network wherever and whenever they need to.
Site-to-site VPNs or intranet VPNs, allow a company to connect its remote sites to the
corporate backbone securely over a public medium like the Internet instead of requiring more
expensive WAN connections like Frame Relay.
Extranet VPNs allow an organization’s suppliers, partners, and customers to be connected
to the corporate network in a limited way for business-to-business (B2B) communications.
3. To provide security in your VPN tunnel, what protocol suite would you use?

Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)
71. Lab manual
Ipv4 is a 32 bit addressing scheme, whereas IPv6 is a 128 bit hexa decimal addressing
scheme, represented in 8 combinations of 4 hexa decimal numbers each separated by a colon.
Hence IPV6 is called a 16-bit Hexadecimal Colon-delimited Block.
Representation:
An IPV6 address is represented as shown below:
2003:1234:ABCD:0001:5678:DCBA:4321:EFGH
Global Interface ID
Unicast
Subnet
Global Prefix
1. Global Unicast recognizes the particular Region or Zone. It is a publicly routable address.
2. Global Prefix is provided by ISP, it’s of 48 bits.
3. Subnet tells you to which particular organization it belongs.
4. Interface id is of 64 bits, where the 48 bit MAC address is padded with FFFE which is of 16
bits and is placed exactly in the middle of the MAC address to make it a 64 bit interface id.
Ex: 2000:12ab:34cd:00ef:1234:4295:0000:00cd
In the above expression ‘00ef ‘ can be represented as ‘ef ‘ and the continuous zeros can be
replaced by double colons( :: ).It can be re-written as
2000:12ab:34cd:ef:1234:4295::cd
Ex : 2000:0000:0000:00ef:1234:kf34:eef0:cd4e
=>
2000::ef: 1234:kf34:eef0:cd4e
Ex : 2001:0000:0000:0012:0000:0000:1234:56ab
And you can’t do this:
72. Lab manual
2001::12::1234:56ab
Instead, the best way you can do is
2001::12:0:0:1234:56ab
Difference between IPv4 & IPv6:
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0
This is the equivalent of IPv4’s 0.0.0.0
0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1
The equivalent of 127.0.0.1 in IPv4
2000::/3
The global Unicast address range.
FC00::/7
The unique local Unicast range.
FE80::/10
The link-local Unicast range.
FF00::/8
The multicast range.
3FFF:FFFF::/32
Reserved for examples and documentation.
2001:0DB8::/32
Also reserved for examples and documentation.
Extended Uniform Identification (eui-64):
You can specify the entire 128-bit global IPv6 address or you can use the eui-64 option.
The eui-64 format allows the device to use its MAC address and pad it to make the interface ID.
Router(config-if)#ipv6 address 2001:db8:3c4d:1::/64 eui-64
The Globe is divided into 5 Zones and each zone will be assigned a number range to identify them.
Here the ‘/64’ represents the identification of the Zone and the IP of the company in that zone.Eui-
64 will pad an extra FFFE to the MAC address exactly to its center.
E.g. MAC address 0060.d673.1987 after padding would look like – 0260.d6ff.fe73.1987
73. Lab manual
In the above e.g.
0 0 6 0 D 6 7 3 1 9 8 7
0000 0000
7th
bit is 0 then the address is locally unique.
0 2 6 0 D 6 F F F E 7 3 1 9 8 7
0000 0010
After padding the 7th
bit changes to 1, now the address is Link local address. It is globally unique
address.
This padding process is called as EUI-64 i.e. Extended Uniform Identifier. EUI-64 is an IEEE
standard that is given to the MAC address of any particular system where every system’s MAC
address will be automatically assigned. MAC address is the part of IPV6 address which makes it a
unique address.
