2. How does a WLC hand off a client's association to another WLC?
Using a mobility exchange message
4
On ports where you never expect to find a root bridge for a VLAN
RADIUS
3. What are the characteristics of the access layer?
Based on priority (0-255). Default is 100. Highest IP is tie breaker
Low cost - high density ports - multiple scalable uplinks - vlans - traffic and protocol filtering and QoS
When a wireless station transmits a frame - the receiving one must send an ack
With portfast
4. How does uplinkfast handle changes in topology?
Can hear only BDPUs
0-255
Notifies upstream neighbors by sending multicasts on behalf of hosts at the interval of the max update rate parameter.

The master router can share the VIP
Lowest cumulative cost to root
A group of wireless devices that share a common SSID
23. What are the 2 choices for VLANs with IPT?
Effectively stops STP on filtered ports
They must be carried over a voice VLAN (VVID) or over a regular data VLAN (ie. The native VLAN or the PVID)
MST attributes must be manually entereed on each switch in the region. They don' t propagate like VTP.
1- inferior BDPU on blocked-considered alternative - 2-inferior on root-all blocked ports considered alternate - 3-if inferior arrives on root and no blocked ports - assumes loss of connectivity to root
24. What duplex setting does 802.11 use and why?
The RP listens to a flow's 1st packet for the dest. The SE listens to the packet and dest and puts a shortcut in the MSL cache. Netflow switching - route once - switch many
Differentiated services
802.1D
Half because transmitting and receiving stations use the same frequency
25. When are RSTP bdpus sent?
Every hello interval regardless of whether BDPUs are received from root - allowing any switch to take an active role maintaining the topology
Only a single host connects . If one BDPU is received - it is no longer an edge port
Etherchannel ports have inconsistent config
A MAC is seen on a different port
26. What is GLBP weight?
Should be used on access switches - can't be used on root - keeps enabled switch from becoming root by raising priority of switch and all ports - making them undesirable
5 (0-4 with 4 being the highest)
By default weight is 100. Can be made dynamic per interface
Cisco proprietary. 1 instance of STP/VLAN. Requires ISL instead of dot1q
27. What is a community secondary VLAN?
The priority is a 2 byte value followed by the MAC that decides which ports are actively participating in Etherchannel (lower=higher priority)
Sends a test tone on the transmit pair. If a device is detected - CDP is used to narrow down the power class.
Hosts within a secondary can communicate with each other and with the primary - but not with another secondary vlan
A host port goes up or down
28. What is a root link query (RLQ)?
7 switches from root bridge
Can hear only BDPUs
Backbonefast uses RLQ to determine if upstream switches have stable connections to root bridge
Collision domain
29. How is a QoS trust bondary configured?
2-8 FE - GE - or 10GE are bundled.
Every switch and router in a network must be configured with appropriate QoS features and policies
After another forwarding delay - the port can send and receive data frames - collect MAC addresses - and send and receove BDPUs
The frame tag includes a 3 bit COS value from 0 (low) to 7 (high). Native vlans are untagged so no COS
30. How do you configure LACP standby links?
The station can transmit immediately and wait for an ack
Port with best root path cost
LACP port priority
The point at which a switch decides to trust incoming Qos. Usually at boundary with ISP
31. What does Root Guard do?
Switch(config-if)# vrrp xx where xx= group number
The port is forced to always authorize any connected client with no authentication necessary (default)
Controls where candidate root bridges can be connected and found on a network
Data and voice over native vlan - no QOS but still uses 802.1p trunk
32. What are the RSTP port states?
Routers at the distribution layer become the bottlenecks or broadcast or multicast traffic slows the switches in the switch block
The topology is pre-populated by downloading the topology DB into the FIB and dynamically updated. Called Cisco Express Forwarding
Discarding - learning - forwarding
Interim solution - uses same hardware as WEP - but uses TKIP encryption
33. How far chould a VLAN extend?
The port uses 802.1x exchange to move from unauthorized to authorized. Requires app on client
It's a router that maintains routes (static or dynamic) - and populates the FIB
Distribution layer
Controls where candidate root bridges can be connected and found on a network
34. What is differentiated services model QOS?
When each AP stands alone within the larger network.
Sends a voltage across the receive pairs to detect a 25k ohm resistance
1- enable MST - 2-enter MST config mode - 3-assign region name and region configuration rev - 4-map vlans to an MSTI - 5-show pending changes - 6- commit by exiting
Each network device handles packets individually with no advance reservations
35. WEP encryption
Weak key rotation
A MAC is seen on a different port

37. On what scope is DAI enabled?
Per VLAN
1-LAP gets a DHCP address - 2-LAP learns IP of available WLC - 3-LAP sends a join request to WLC and receives join reply - 4-WLC sends code image - if necessary - 5-Tunnels are created
5 classes with 3 drop precedences
On the left as you face the connector
38. RSTP uses which standard?
Source IP and MAC must match those addresses learned by DHCP snooping or a static entry
Trusted or untrusted
802.1w
Globally
39. RSTP edge port
Only a single host connects . If one BDPU is received - it is no longer an edge port
Protects STP when a physical malfunction only allows traffic in 1 direction - even though the link shows as up (cisco proprietary)
Automatically by duplex mode in use. Full duplex are point ot point. Half duplex ports use traditional 802.1D convergence is used.
Variation in delay
40. How does an LAP bind with a WLC?
All user ports that have portfast enabled
When the size of a cell is intentionally reduced
By brining up a tunnel between them to carry 802.11 related messages and client data.
For hosts that doesn't understand routing - the DGW is configured to reply with its own mac
41. What does the rewrite engine do?
An ac adaptor that plugs into a wall outlet.
It updates the L2 headers with the proper src and dst MAC - L3 TTL - L3 checksum - and L2 checksum information

Effectively stops STP on filtered ports
44. How is Root Guard used?
Data goes over native vlan - voice goes over specified VLAN - voice QOS is 802.1p
Access or trunk
On ports where you never expect to find a root bridge for a VLAN
Prevents the dhcp binding DB from being checked.
45. EAP encryption
The port is forced to always authorize any connected client with no authentication necessary (default)
Dynamic WEP keys that change periodically
