This document discusses VLANs (virtual local area networks). VLANs logically separate network users and resources connected to switch ports, creating smaller broadcast domains. VLANs simplify network management, provide security over flat networks, and allow flexibility and scalability. VLANs reduce broadcast traffic by containing it within virtual broadcast domains. They allow users to be added to VLANs regardless of physical location and enable adding new VLANs as network growth requires more bandwidth. The document also covers VLAN trunking, identification, membership configuration, and VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) which centrally manages VLAN configurations across switches to maintain consistency.

Vlan
VLANs logically segment LANs into broadcast domains by using switches to assign ports and their attached devices to VLAN groups based on their MAC address, IP subnet, or switch port. This allows devices that are physically located on different floors or buildings to belong to the same logical LAN segment while preventing Layer 2 broadcasts from crossing VLAN boundaries. VLAN trunk links between switches allow multiple VLANs to be transmitted over the same physical link.

Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)
This document provides an overview of virtual local area networks (VLANs). It defines VLANs and discusses why they are used to logically segment physical networks. VLAN trunking is described as using a trunk port to interconnect VLAN switches. VLAN tagging is explained as a method to identify packets traversing trunk links by adding a tag to frames. Different types of VLANs are outlined such as static, dynamic, data, management, default and native. Finally, advantages like increased performance and disadvantages like management complexity are highlighted.
Vlan
Virtual LANs (VLANs) logically segment a network into broadcast domains to restrict communication between devices. VLANs group devices by function, department, application or other criteria without regard to physical location. Routers provide connectivity between VLAN segments. Implementing VLANs on a switch creates separate bridging tables for each VLAN so frames are only switched between ports in the same VLAN. VLANs improve security, flexibility and management of the network compared to relying solely on physical segmentation.

This document provides a summary of a presentation on CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate). It was trained by Ravinder Kumar from Gurukul Technical Institute and submitted by Tarun Khaneja with roll number 2110045 and contact number 09034406598. The presentation introduces CCNA and discusses networking types and applications. It also covers networking devices, subnetting, routing protocols like RIP, EIGRP, OSPF, ACLs, VLANs, and inter-VLAN routing. Configuration examples are provided for EIGRP and RIP routing on the same network.
Ip address and subnetting
IP addressing and subnetting allows networks to be logically organized and divided. The key objectives covered include explaining IP address classes, configuring addresses, subnetting networks, and advanced concepts like CIDR, summarization, and VLSM. Transitioning to IPv6 is also discussed as a way to address the depletion of IPv4 addresses and improve security.
VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP)
VTP allows for synchronization of VLAN information between switches to reduce administration. It uses advertisements sent over trunk links to exchange VLAN configuration details. A switch can be configured as a VTP server to manage VLANs for a domain, as a client to receive updates, or as transparent to only use local VLAN data. VTP pruning helps optimize traffic flow by restricting broadcasts only to necessary trunks.
WLAN
A wireless local area network (WLAN) uses radio frequency technology to transmit and receive data over the air, providing mobility and flexibility as an extension or alternative to wired networks. Key advantages of WLANs include productivity, convenience, lower installation costs and mobility. However, WLANs also have disadvantages such as higher costs for wireless network cards and access points, susceptibility to environmental interference, and lower bandwidth capacity compared to wired networks. Common applications of WLANs include use in corporate, education, medical and temporary settings.

Subnetting
Subnets divide a network into smaller sub-networks or subnets. Each subnet is treated as a separate network and can be further divided. When a packet enters a network with subnets, routers will route based on the subnet ID which is a combination of the network ID and subnet portion of the IP address. Subnets are only relevant for routing within an organization and are transparent outside the organization.
Unicasting , Broadcasting And Multicasting New
This document summarizes three different types of network transmission methods: unicasting, multicasting, and broadcasting. Unicasting involves sending messages to a single destination host and requires a direct connection between client and server. Multicasting allows sending of data to multiple clients simultaneously by registering interest in the data stream. Broadcasting sends information from one source to all connected sources on a network segment.
VirtuaL area network (VLAN)
This document discusses virtual local area networks (VLANs). It defines VLANs as logically segmenting switched networks based on functions, project teams, or applications, regardless of physical location or network connections. VLANs divide stations into logical groups through software instead of physical segments, allowing easy movement of stations between groups without changing physical configurations. Common VLAN types include port-based, MAC address-based, and protocol-based. Benefits of VLANs include logical organization of networks, easy moves and additions of workstations, flexible configuration changes, traffic control, and improved security.
IPv4
- The document discusses Internet Protocol (IP) which is the principal communications protocol for relaying datagrams across network boundaries. There are two major versions - IPv4 which is the dominant protocol, and IPv6 which is its successor.
- IPv4 uses 32-bit addresses divided into five classes (A, B, C, D, E). It allows for over 4 billion addresses but deficiencies in the classful addressing system led to address depletion.
- Classless addressing was introduced to overcome depletion by granting variable length address blocks defined by an IP address and network mask. This provides a hierarchical addressing structure and greater flexibility.
Ip Addressing Basics
The document discusses IP addressing basics including MAC addresses, IP addresses, private and public IP addresses, and subnetting. It provides examples of MAC addresses, ifconfig output showing MAC and IP addresses, private IP address ranges, and how to break up a Class C network into multiple subnets using subnet masks.
Multiple access protocol
This document discusses multiple access protocols used to coordinate access to shared broadcast channels. It describes various channel partitioning protocols like TDMA and FDMA that divide channels by time or frequency. Random access protocols like ALOHA and CSMA are also covered, which allow nodes to transmit randomly and detect collisions. CSMA/CD improves on CSMA by allowing nodes to detect collisions quickly and abort transmissions. Taking-turns protocols pass control of the channel between nodes either through polling or token passing. The document provides examples and compares the efficiency of different multiple access protocols.
Unicast multicast & broadcast
Unicast involves sending data from one computer to another, with one sender and one receiver. Multicast sends data to a group of devices that have joined the multicast group, with one sender but multiple potential receivers. Broadcast sends data from one computer that is then forwarded to all connected devices, with one sender and all devices receiving the broadcast traffic.
Basic switching concepts and configuration
This chapter examines some of the basic switch configuration settings required to maintain a secure, available, switched LAN environment.
CCNA Network Devices
This document summarizes network devices and concepts from a CCNA guide. It describes how repeaters, hubs, wireless access points, bridges, switches and routers segment networks and control traffic. It also defines Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet standards, and explains half and full-duplex communication modes. The summary provides an overview of common network devices and technologies for local area networks.
Virtual LAN
This document discusses VLANs (virtual local area networks). It defines LANs and VLANs, explaining that VLANs logically segment networks based on functions or teams rather than physical connections. It describes static and dynamic VLAN implementation methods and port-based, MAC address-based, and protocol-based VLAN types. Finally, it outlines benefits of VLANs such as easy network changes, traffic control, and improved security.
VIRTUAL LANS (VLANS).pptx
VLANs logically segment networks into broadcast domains based on organizational functions rather than physical connections. Switches maintain separate bridging tables for each VLAN to restrict communication between ports in different VLANs. Routers provide security and traffic management between VLANs. Common ways to assign devices to VLANs include by port, MAC address, or protocol.
CCNA Basic Switching and Switch Configuration
This document provides an overview of basic switching concepts and Cisco switch configuration. It explains Ethernet and how switches work to segment networks and reduce collisions. Switches operate at the data link layer and learn MAC addresses to forward frames efficiently. The document discusses switch configuration using commands like hostname, interface, duplex, and port security. It compares switching methods like store-and-forward and cut-through forwarding. The summary reiterates how switches divide collision domains to improve performance over shared-medium Ethernet.
Computer networking devices
This document discusses various networking devices used to connect electronic devices and share resources in a computer network. It describes network interface cards (NICs) that provide the physical interface between a computer and cabling. It also covers repeaters that regenerate signals to extend distances, modems that modulate and demodulate signals for internet connections, hubs and switches that connect multiple devices either by broadcasting or selectively forwarding, bridges that segment networks while filtering traffic, and routers that intelligently connect different network types and choose optimal paths between them. The document provides details on the function and layer (physical, data link, network) of operation for each type of networking device.
Dynamic routing protocols (CCNA)
Dynamic routing protocols are used to automatically discover remote networks, maintain up-to-date routing information, and choose the best path to destination networks. There are two main types - interior gateway protocols (IGPs) like RIP, OSPF, and EIGRP that are used within an autonomous system, and exterior protocols like BGP that route between autonomous systems. IGPs use metrics like hop count or bandwidth to determine the best path. OSPF is a link-state protocol that floods link information, while EIGRP uses DUAL algorithm and maintains topology tables for fast convergence.
Network topologies
There are three main network topologies: bus, ring, and star. The bus topology broadcasts messages to all connected computers but performance decreases as more computers are added. Ring topologies arrange computers in a circular path and use token passing to control access. Star topologies connect all computers to a central hub or switch device, avoiding single point failures but losing connectivity if the central device fails.
Network topologies
This document discusses LAN physical topologies including bus, ring, and star. It describes the characteristics of each: bus uses a single cable to connect all nodes; ring connects each node to the two nearest in a circle; and star connects each node to a central hub. The document also discusses hybrid topologies and backbone structures used to connect multiple networks. It provides advantages and disadvantages of each physical topology for considerations like scalability, fault tolerance, and costs.

Networking Cables
Networking Cable is the medium through which information usually moves from one network device to
another. There are several types of cable which are commonly used with LANs. In some cases, a network
will utilize only one type of cable, other networks will use a variety of cable types. The type of cable
chosen for a network is related to the network's topology, protocol, and size. Understanding the
characteristics of different types of cable and how they relate to other aspects of a network is necessary
for the development of a successful network.
Network Cabling
Network cabling is the medium used to transmit information between network devices. There are several types of cable used in local area networks (LANs) including unshielded twisted pair (UTP), fiber optic, and wireless. UTP is the most common and comes in categories that support different transmission speeds. Fiber optic cable can transmit signals over much longer distances than copper cables. Wireless networks use radio signals, infrared, or lasers to transmit information without cables but have disadvantages related to security and interference. Proper installation of network cables follows guidelines such as leaving slack, testing connections, and labeling cables.
Network Cabling
This document discusses network cabling and making connections with Cat5 cable. It defines common cable types like coaxial, UTP and fiber optic cables. UTP cable characteristics and categories are described, with Cat5e listed as supporting data transfers up to 1000Mbps. The document outlines the tools and 8 steps to making a connection, including stripping, arranging wires according to the 568A or 568B standard, crimping an RJ45 connector onto the cable, and testing the connection.
Crimping and Testing
The document discusses cable crimping and testing for RJ45 cables. It explains the difference between straight and crossover cables and the different wiring schematics used for each. It provides steps for crimping an RJ45 connector onto a cable, including stripping the cable, inserting the wires into the connector, crimping it, and testing the connection.
Network cable
The document discusses different types of cables used for network transmission including coaxial cables, twisted pair cables, and fiber optic cables.

VLANs logically separate broadcast domains on a physical network by grouping ports on a switch. This reduces broadcast traffic and allows more flexible workgroup configurations than are possible through physical port locations alone. There are several types of VLANs including those defined by port, protocol, IP subnet, and MAC address. VLAN tagging allows switches to identify and enforce VLAN membership by adding a tag field to frames. This provides benefits like easier switching but introduces challenges around frame size and compatibility.

A VLAN allows computers on different physical LAN segments to communicate as if they were on the same LAN. VLANs logically segment LANs into different broadcast domains by using frame tagging to identify which VLAN a frame belongs to. There are two main types of VLAN configurations - static, where ports are manually assigned to VLANs, and dynamic, where assignments are made via network management software based on device MAC addresses.

A VLAN allows devices on different LAN segments to communicate as if they were on the same LAN. VLANs logically segment LANs into broadcast domains to limit broadcast traffic. Frame tagging and filtering methods are used to associate devices with VLANs and control broadcast domains. Common frame tagging protocols are IEEE 802.1Q and Cisco's ISL which add identifiers to frames to associate them with VLANs.

VLANs logically segment networks based on functions or project teams, regardless of physical connections. VLANs create broadcast domains by assigning switch ports to VLANs. Routers are used for communication between VLANs. Common VLAN types include port-based VLANs where a device assumes the VLAN of its connected port, and dynamic VLANs where software assigns VLANs based on MAC addresses. VLAN tagging allows a link to carry multiple VLANs by adding a tag to frames to designate VLAN membership.
VLAN (virtual local area network)
In computer networking, a single layer-2 network may be partitioned to create multiple distinct
broadcast domains, which are mutually isolated so that packets can only pass between them via one or
more routers; such a domain is referred to as a virtual local area network, virtual LAN or VLAN.
A virtual local area network (VLAN) is a logical group of workstations, servers and network devices that
appear to be on the same LAN despite their geographical distribution. A VLAN allows a network of
computers and users to communicate in a simulated environment as if they exist in a single LAN and are
sharing a single broadcast and multicast domain.
Benefits of vlan
VLANs logically separate broadcast domains to improve network efficiency and security. They allow easy administration by keeping devices on the same VLAN when moved. VLANs segment networks to restrict access between groups and isolate traffic like preventing YouTube at work. They provide security through authentication and wireless user assignment to VLANs regardless of location. VLAN tags allow traffic segregation within and between switches through trunk ports.
Network virtualization
Network virtualization allows sharing of physical network infrastructure between multiple virtual networks through abstraction and tunneling techniques. It provides benefits like increased infrastructure utilization, scalability, agility, and security. Common virtualization techniques include VLANs to divide switches into logical segments, DWDM to multiply fiber bandwidth, VRFs to partition routers, and tunneling protocols like GRE, VXLAN, and MPLS to encapsulate and transport traffic across physical networks. Overlay networks further abstract the physical underlay into virtual topologies to support multiple isolated tenant networks on shared infrastructure.
Network switch
A network switch receives incoming data packets and redirects them to their destination on a local area network (LAN) instead of broadcasting to all devices like a hub. There are two main types of switches - unmanaged switches which cannot be configured and are used for simple networks, and managed switches which provide advanced features like quality of service, remote management, and virtual LANs for larger networks. Layer 2 switches use MAC addresses to segment traffic while layer 3 switches can route between VLANs using IP addresses. Smart switches have some management capabilities but lack advanced features of full managed switches.

VLANs logically segment networks based on organizational functions rather than physical connections. This allows workstations and servers used by the same workgroup to communicate regardless of location. VLANs restrict communication between different VLAN groups and function by logically segmenting the network into broadcast domains so packets are only switched between ports in the same VLAN. Routers provide security, broadcast filtering, and traffic management between VLANs. VLANs address issues like scalability, security, and network management.

TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.
### Advantages of TDM
- **Efficient Use of Bandwidth**: TDM all
