Network Structure
08/02/13
Define Local Area Networks (LANs)
- A network serving a home, building or campus is
considered a Local Area Network (LAN)

Network Structure
08/02/13
Define Wide Area Networks (WANs)
- LANs separated by geographic distance are connected
by a network known as a Wide Area Network (WAN)

Host-to-Host Communications
Host-to-host communications requires a consistent
model. The model addresses hardware, software, and
data transmission
08/02/13

The OSI reference model provides a means of
describing how data is transmitted over a network.
The model addresses hardware, software, and data
transmission.
08/02/13

Peer-to-Peer Communication
So that data packets can travel from the source to the
destination, each layer of the OSI model at the source must
communicate with its peer layer at the destination. This topic
describes the process of peer-to-peer communication.
During the process of peer-to-peer communication, the
protocols at each layer exchange packets of information called
protocol data units (PDUs) between peer layers.
These data packets originate at a source on a network and then
travel to a destination. Each layer depends on the OSI layer
below it to provide a service. To perform its service function, the
lower layer uses encapsulation to put the protocol data unit
(PDU) from the upper layer into lower layer data field. Each
layer then adds whatever headers the layer needs to perform its
function. As the data moves down from Layer 7 through Layer 2
of the OSI model, additional headers are added.
08/02/13

The network layer provides a service to the transport layer,
and the transport layer presents data to the network
subsystem. The network layer moves the data through the
Internet by encapsulating the data and attaching a header
to create a packet (the Layer 3 PDU). The header contains
information required to complete the transfer, such as
source and destination logical addresses.
The data link layer provides a service to the network layer
by encapsulating the network layer packet in a frame (the
Layer 2 PDU). The frame header contains the physical
addresses required to complete the data link functions,
and the frame trailer contains the FCS.
The physical layer provides a service to the data link layer,
encoding the data-link frame into a pattern of 1s and 0s
(bits) for transmission on the medium (usually a wire) at
Layer 1.

Ethernet
The most common LAN technology
Different media (copper cable, optical fibre)
Different bandwidths (10, 100Mbps, Gbps, +)
Same addressing scheme
Same basic frame format
08/02/13

Ethernet history
First LAN was Ethernet, designed at Xerox
1980 Ethernet standard published by DIX (Digital, Intel, Xerox)
1985 IEEE modified Ethernet standard and published as 802.3
Ethernet802.3
802.2MAC
LLC

Advantages of Ethernet
Simplicity and ease of maintenance
Ability to incorporate new technologies (e.g. fibre
optic, higher bandwidths)
Reliability
Low cost of installation and upgrade

Hub and Switch
Shared medium
Shared bandwidth
Collisions
Point to point links
Dedicated bandwidth
Use full duplex – no collisions
Hub
Switch
08/02/13

Switching table
Switch builds a switching table
matching its port numbers to the
MAC addresses of devices connected
to them.
When a frame arrives, it reads the
destination MAC address, looks it
up in the table, finds the right port
and forwards the frame.
08/02/13

Flooding
If the switch does not find the destination address in
its table then it floods the frame through all ports
except the incoming port.
Broadcast messages are flooded.
08/02/13

Learning addresses
The switch learns addresses by looking at the source
MAC address of an incoming frame.
It then matches the address to the port where the
frame came in and puts the information in its table.
Entries are time stamped and removed from the table
when the time runs out.
They can be refreshed when another frame comes in
from the same host.
08/02/13

ARP table
A host wants to send a message.
It knows the destination IP address and puts it in the
packet header.
It looks in its ARP table and finds the corresponding
MAC address.
It puts the MAC address in the frame header.
08/02/13

Internetwork Operating System
Most Cisco devices use the Cisco IOS.
Details vary with the device and feature set.
Normal access through a command line.
Stored in flash memory and can be upgraded.
Usually copied into RAM when the device is powered
on, and run from RAM.

Router prompts
User EXEC mode
Privileged EXEC mode
Global Configuration mode
Specific Configuration modes
Router>
Router#
Router(config)#
Router(config-if)#
and others

EXEC modes
You log in to User EXEC mode
Router>
You can give basic monitoring commands but cannot
change the configuration
Enter enable to go to Privileged EXEC mode
Router#
Password may be used for security
You can give more commands and can go to
configuration modes

Configuration modes
Start in privileged EXEC mode and enter the
configure terminal (config t) command
Router# config t
Router(config)#
The prompt changes
This is global configuration mode
Additional commands take you to interface
configuration, router configuration etc.

Console password
Paris(config)#line con 0
Paris(config-line)#password cisco
Paris(config-line)#login
Paris(config-line)#exit
Restricts access via the console
Use cisco as the password in labs.
Use a proper strong password on production
networks

Vty password for Telnet
Paris(config)#line vty 0 4
Paris(config-line)#password cisco
Paris(config-line)#login
Paris(config-line)#exit
Allows and restricts access via 5 vty lines
Use cisco as the password in labs.
Use a proper strong, different password on
production networks

Enable and enable secret
Paris(config)#enable secret class
The password class is needed when you type enable
to enter privileged exec mode
This password is encrypted
Paris(config)#enable password cisco
Not encrypted, used on older routers
If you configure both, then only the enable secret is
used.

Back up to TFTP server
Start TFTP server software on host
Paris#copy running-config tftp
Remote host []? 172.16.1.1
Name of configuration file to write [Paris-config]?
Paris12Oct07
Write file Paris12Oct07 to 172.16.1.1? [confirm] y
Writing Paris12Oct07 ! ! ! ! ! ! [OK]

Erase startup configuration
Paris#erase NVRAM:startup-config
Paris#erase startup-config
Paris#erase start
If you reload, then the router starts up with the
default configuration. No passwords, no IP addresses
etc.
Caution if you get this command wrong then you
could erase something else, e.g. IOS

Restore file from TFTP server
Router#copy tftp running-config
You will be prompted for IP address and file name.
Configuration is copied into RAM and takes effect at
once.
Save to NVRAM.

Configure a router interface
Paris(config)#interface FastEthernet 0/0
Paris(config-if)#ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.0.0
Paris(config-if)#no shutdown
Paris(config-if)#exit
Interface names vary, depending on whether the
router is modular and on the bandwidth.
E.g. interface Ethernet 0 on an older router

Configure a router interface
Paris(config)#interface serial 0/0
Paris(config-if)#ip address 192.168.4.1 255.255.255.0
(Paris(config-if)#clock rate 64000)
Paris(config-if)#no shutdown
Paris(config-if)#exit DCE only

Switch IP address
The switch IP address goes on a virtual interface, not
a real one, normally VLAN1.
SwA(config)#interface VLAN1
SwA(config-if)#ip address 172.16.255.1 255.255.0.0
SwA(config-if)#no shutdown
SwA(config-if)#exit

Interface – show commands
show interfaces states whether up or down, gives
some protocol information and statistics about
interface use.
show ip interface gives IP addresses and much
more.
show ip interface brief gives summary of IP
addresses and whether up/down. Very useful
command.
