Q1.pkt simulates
the switched network
of
USQ College.
Assuming all links ar
e of the same cost, answer the questions in part A and fill in the
table
in
part B
.
Submit all your answers as Q1_ans.pdf.
Part A
Why are links L1 and L2 are both active? Will there
be any loops in this case?
Part B
Determine the status of the links, and role of the ports.
Fill in the table. Mark all entries as NA if they are not used in determining the status of a link
or the role of a port. L9 and L10 has been done for you.

Question 3
(3
5
marks)
Part A
Bill Gateway
proposed EtherRouter which uses an EtherChannel to connect to
routers
participating in
FHRP
such as
GLBP to provide load
balanci
ng
and increase the efficiency of
the traffic flow
.
He claimed that
EtherChannel can use all links
(Link1, Link 2 in LAN 1)
to reach all FHRP gateway
routers
(R1 and R2 for LAN 1)
at
the same time;
All FHRP gateway routers
(R1 and R2 for LAN 1)
will forward traffic if load balancing is
enabled;
A LAN
(LAN 1)
which attached to the Internet uses EtherRouter may increase the
volume of data in transition by using more links and routers.
Wi
th two links in the EtherChannel and two FHRP routers, the increase in traffic volume
can be up to almost two times.
In less than 500 words, explain why EtherRouter is feasible or not.
If it is feasible, implement the network shown above using Packet Trace
r
and submit the file
as Q3_ans.pkt.
If not, suggest another way to replace EtherRouter.
Put all your answers in Q3_ans.pdf.
Part B
DHCP for IPv6 has a SLAAC mode.
Explain
whether w
e can
achieve SLAAC mode for
IPv4
DHCP or not.
Put all your answers in
Q3_ans.pdf.
