How can a VLAN help to improve voice traffic?
A Vlan can be used to reduced the amount of background chatter on the network from other devices not used by VOIP.
What is the purpose of the vlan database?
Vlan database is vlan.bat file which is stored in flash memory and earlier in NVRAM. It is used to store vlan information. we can take back up of this file.
How do you create VLAN step-by-step?
AnswerVLANs are created on Layer 2 switches to control broadcasts and enforce the use of a Layer 3 device for communications. Each VLAN is created in the local switch's database for use. If a VLAN is not known to a switch, that switch cannot transfer traffic across any of its ports for that VLAN. VLANs are created by number, and there are two ranges of usable VLAN numbers (normal range 1-1000 and extended range 1025-4096). When a VLAN is created, you can also give it certain attributes such as a VLAN name, VLAN type, and its operational state. To create a VLAN, use the following steps.1) Configure VTP. VTP is a protocol used by Cisco switches to maintain a consistent database between switches for trunking purposes. VTP is not required to create VLANs; however, Cisco has set it up to act as a conduit for VLAN configuration between switches as a default to make administration of VLANs easier. Because of this, you must first either configure VTP with a domain name or disable VTP on the switch.2) Create the VLAN. VLANs are created by number. The two ranges of VLANs are as follows: The standard range consists of VLANs 1 to 1000. The extended range consists of VLANs 1025 to 4096. Extended VLANs are currently supported only on switches running COS software version 6.1 or greater. When you create a VLAN, you have many options to consider. Many options are valid only for FDDI and Token Ring VLANs. Some of the items configured deal with options, such as private VLANs, which are discussed in other sections in this book. VLANs are created using the set vlan command for COS devices or with the vlan command in vlan database mode for IOS switches.
The network administrator needs to remove the east-hosts vlan and use the switch port from that vlan in one of the existing vlans what two commands should be used when completely removing vlan 2 from?
no vlan XXX copy run star
What protocols are used to configure trunking on a switch?
VLAN
What does VLAN stand for?
A VLAN is a virtual LAN. In technical terms, a VLAN is a broadcast domain created by switches. Normally, it is a router creating that broadcast domain. With VLANs, a switch can create the broadcast domain. This works by, you, the administrator, putting some switch ports in a VLAN other than 1, the default VLAN. All ports in a single VLAN are in a single broadcast domain. Because switches can talk to each other, some ports on switch A can be in VLAN 10 and other ports on switch B can be in VLAN 10. Broadcasts between these devices will not be seen on any other port in any other VLAN, other than 10. However, these devices can all communicate because they are on the same VLAN. Without additional configuration, they would not be able to communicate with any other devices, not in their VLAN.
What do switches create when they group a number of ports into broadcast domain?
this would be called virtual local area connection or a vlan
What switch features are typically used with Voice Over Internet Protocol?
VLAN and PoE are used
What is the purpose of the switch command switch port access vlan 99?
the switchport access vlan 99 command is used to designate a specific VLAN for a switch port, allowing you to control how traffic on that port is treated and segregated from traffic on other ports and VLANs in the network. This is a fundamental configuration step in building and managing VLANs within a network infrastructure.
How do you connect computers on separate VLAN?
Since VLAN's cannot communicate with other VLAN's directly, I believe you would have to set up a router to do that. I would check out how to set up a bridge between two VLAN's.
how are packets assigned to the VLAN?
VLAN: How are packets distributed with respect to the different classifications?
What is the command used to assign switch user port?
switchport access vlan vlanID
