Practice #1 Vlans & VTP

Weve selected two switches 2950 and both connected in mode trunk, and later we connected the end-devices on different ports of the switch. The three VLANs weve named were:Management as VLAN 99, Sales as VLAN 10, and Manufacturing as VLAN 20. Weve changed the Switch configuration: Switch>enable Switch#configure terminal Switch(config)#hostname Switch1 Switch1 (config)#enable password CISCO Switch1 enable secret CISCO Switch1 (config)#line console 0 Switch1 (config-line)#login Switch1 (config-line)#password CISCO Switch1 (config)#line vty 0 4 Switch1 (config-line)#login Switch1 (config-line)#password CISCO SW1 (config)#interface vlan 99 SW1config-vlan)#ip address 172.16.1.253 255.255.255.0 SW1(config-vlan)#no shutdown SW1 (config)#ip default-gateway 172.16.1.254 Weve do the same configuration from each switch. Each port was configured on the switch and configured the VLANs. Another configuration could be with: SW1#vlan database SW1#vlan 99 Management SW1#vlan(exit)

Later on weve associate each end device with a different VLAN, PC11 and PC21 were configured on VLAN 10 and PC12 and PC 22 with VLAN 20. Finally weve made ping between PC11 and PC21, and when weve done ping between PC12 and PC21 they cant made ping, because different VLANs cant communicate each other. The second part of the practice was to set up a link between these switches VTP (one server and one as a client). You must configure the Virtual Trunking Protocol (VTP) on both switches. VTP is the protocol that communicates information about which VLANs exist from one switch to another. If VTP does not provide this information, the VLAN should be created on all switches individually. Configure a VTP domain named Connectivity.SW1 was configured as Server and SW2 as Client Configure VLAN 30 Marketing in the VTP Server and verify that it is properly configured (automatically) in the Client Switch, then we Configured SW2 as Transparent and VLAN 50 Accounting into the Server Switch, and verify that it doesnt get configured into SW2 SW1#vlan database SW1 (vlan) #vtp server SW1 (vlan) #vtp domain Connectivity SW1 (vlan) #exit SW1 (vlan) #sh vtp status SW1 (config) #int range f0/1-2 SW1 (config-if-range) #sw SW1 (config-if-range) #switchport mode trunk SW1#vlan database SW2 (vlan) #vtp client SW2 (vlan) #vtp domain Connectivity SW2 (vlan) #exit SW2 (config) #int range f0/1 SW2 (config-if) #sw SW2 (config-if) #switchport mode trunk SW1#vlan database SW2 (vlan) #vtp Transparent SW2 (vlan) #vtp domain Connectivity SW2 (vlan) #exit SW2 (config) #int range f0/1

SW2 (config-if) #sw SW2 (config-if) #switchport mode trunk

Then, we configured another VLANs like Marketing and Accounting, with this step we confirmed that this VLAN configured, in the Server switch or into the Client switch, doesnt show in the other switch. Conclusions The acknowledge that we learned and the knowledge acquired were about the VTP and the VLANS. 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. You need to consider using VLANs in any of the following situations: You have more than 200 devices on your LAN You have a lot of broadcast traffic on your LAN Groups of users need more security or are being slowed down by too many broadcasts? Groups of users need to be on the same broadcast domain because they are running the same applications. An example would be a company that has VoIP phones. The users using the phone could be on a different VLAN, not with the regular users. Or, just to make a single switch into multiple virtual switches.

Also we learned that the VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) is the protocol that propagates the information about which VLANs exist from one switch to another switch. If VTP did not provide this information, VLANs would have to be created on all switches individually in the network. VTP is a Cisco proprietary protocol. Some of the challenges thate had doing this practice was to know how to configure ports in access mode and trunk mode, after that, we realized that it was with the command #switchport mode. #switchport mode access is associated with VLANs. #switchport mode trunk mode connects switches.
