Each routing protocol selects the best route using its own metric comparison procedure. If there are more than one candidate routes from different protocols, then administrative distances are compared and only one protocol installs its route into...
Many Cisco APs can operate in either autonomous or lightweight mode, depending on which code image is loaded and run. From the WLC, you can also configure a lightweight AP to operate in one of the following special-purpose modes:
Cisco Wireless Architecture and AP modes connect a wireless network to a wired network to safely transfer data. A Cisco Access Point (AP) is configured to operate in either Lightweight mode or Autonomous mode. A Cisco LAP is part of the Cisco...
Routers route IPv4 packets. That simple statement actually carries a lot of hidden meaning. For routers to route packets, routers follow a routing process. That routing process relies on information called IP routes. Each IP route lists a...
Let’s dive into how to configure STP on switch. We will also look into how STP topology change occurs, what happens when link failure happens and how to protect STP. STP Topology Changes An STP topology change will occur under two...
Two neighboring switches can treat multiple parallel links between each other as a single logical link called an Ether Channel. Without Ether Channel, a switch treats each physical port as an independent port, applying MAC learning, forwarding, and...
Ether Channel is a port link aggregation technology developed by Cisco, which provides fault-tolerant high-speed links between Switches, Routers, and Servers. Ether Channel technology allows multiple physical Ethernet links (Fast Ethernet or Gigabit...
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is a Cisco proprietary protocol for network discovery on the data link layer. It can share information such as device names and IOS versions, with other physically connected Cisco devices. Link Layer Discovery Protocol...
