What would you need to do if you added new networks or deleted/modified existing

networks?
-

Make sure you update all 3 routers with the new networks.

List all possible advantages and disadvantages of Static Routing.


Advantages

Easy to implement in a small network.


Very secure. No advertisements are sent, unlike with dynamic routing

protocols.
It is very predictable, as the route to the destination is always the same.
No routing algorithm or update mechanisms are required. Therefore, extra
resources (CPU and memory) are not required

Disadvantages

Suitable for simple topologies or for special purposes such as a default static
route.
Configuration complexity increases dramatically as the network grows.
Managing the static configurations in large networks can become time
consuming.
If a link fails, a static route cannot reroute traffic. Therefore, manual
intervention is required to re-route traffic.

Given the Network Topology, configure each router and use static routes to
communicate all computers in a different network.

List all possible advantages and disadvantages of Dynamic Routing.

Advantages

Disadvantages

Suitable in all topologies


where multiple routers are
required.

Can be more complex to initially implement.

Generally independent of
the network size.

Less secure due to the broadcast and multicast routing updates.


Additional configuration settings such as passive interfaces and
routing protocol authentication are required to increase
security.

Automatically adapts
topology to reroute traffic
if possible.

Route depends on the current topology.

Requires additional resources such as CPU, memory, and link


bandwidth.

Differentiate Dynamic Routing and Static Routing.


-

Static routing is easy to implement in a small network. Static routes stay the
same, which makes them fairly easy to troubleshoot. Static routes do not

send update messages and, therefore, require very little overhead.


Dynamic routing protocols work well in any type of network consisting of
several routers. They are scalable and automatically determine better routes
if there is a change in the topology. Although there is more to the
configuration of dynamic routing protocols, they are simpler to configure in a
large network.

What network protocol, SSH or Telnet, is more preferred to use? Why?


-

SSH because SSH is more secure compared to Telnet. SSH encrypts the data
while Telnet sends data in plain text. SSH uses a public key for authentication while
Telnet does not use any authentication. SSH adds a bit more overhead to the bandwidth
compared to Telnet

It is possible to login to SSH server without password? How?


- Yes. Step 1: Create public and private keys using ssh-key-gen on local-host
Step 2: Copy the public key to remote-host using ssh-copy-id. Note: ssh-copy-id
appends the keys to the remote-hosts .ssh/authorized_key.
Step 3: Login to remote-host without entering the password

Given the command line vty 0 6, how many clients can remotely access a router?

What are VoIP phones and how do they work?

Voice over Internet Protocol, is a method for taking analog audio signals,
like the kind you hear when you talk on the phone, and turning them into

digital data that can be transmitted over the Internet.


With VoIP, analog voice calls are converted into packets of data. The packets
travel like any other type of data, such as e-mail, over the public Internet
and/or any private Internet Protocol (IP) network.

What is/are the significance of using VoIP?


The reason for the prevalence of VoIP is that it gives significant benefits compared
to legacy phone systems. The key benefits are as follows:

Cost savings.
Rich media service
Phone portability
Service mobility
Integration and collaboration with other applications.
User control interface
No geographical boundary.
Rich features

Give the disadvantages to the customer of using VoIP?


-

No service during a power outage


Emergency calls
Reliability
Security
