Training Overview
The primary focus of this Training is on LAN switching . The goal is to develop an understanding of
how a switch communicates with other switches and routers in a small- or medium-sized business
network to implement VLAN segmentation.
This Training focuses on Layer 2 switching protocols and concepts used to improve redundancy,
propagate VLAN information, and secure the portion of the network where most users access
network services.

Content Of Training
Chapter 1 LAN Design the fundamental aspects of designing local area networks. In particular,
hierarchical network design utilizing the core-distribution-access layer model is introduced and
referenced throughout the remainder of the course.
Chapter 2 Basic Switch Concepts and Configuration introduces switch forwarding methods,
symmetric and asymmetric switching, memory buffering, and Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching. An
integral role of a switch administrator is maintain a secure network; to this end, you learn to
configure various passwords on the switch to mitigate common security attacks.
Chapter 3 VLANs Chapter 3 presents the types of VLANs used in modern switched networks. It is
important to understand the role of the default VLAN, user/data VLANs, native VLANs, the
management VLAN, and voice VLANs. VLAN trunks with IEEE 802.1Q tagging facilitate inter-switch
communication with multiple VLANs. You learn to configure, verify, and troubleshoot VLANs and
trunks using the Procurve IOS CLI.

Chapter 4 VTP VTP is used to exchange VLAN information across trunk links, reducing VLAN
administration and configuration errors.
Chapter 5 STP STP makes it possible to implement redundant physical links in a switched LAN by
creating a logical loop-free Layer 2 topology. By default Procurve switches implement STP in a perVLAN fashion. IEEE 802.1D defined the original implementation of spanning-tree protocol. IEEE
802.1w defined an improved implementation of spanning tree called rapid spanning tree protocol.
RSTP convergence time is approximately five times faster than convergence with 802.1D. RSTP
introduces several new concepts, such as link types, edge ports, alternate ports, backup ports, and
the discarding state.
Chapter 6 Inter-VLAN Routing Inter-VLAN routing is the process of routing traffic between
different VLANs. You learn the various methods of inter-VLAN routing. You learn to implement
inter-VLAN routing in the router-on-a-stick topology, where a trunk link connects a Layer 2 switch
to a router configured with logical subinterfaces paired in a one-to-one fashion with VLANs.

Step 4: IP configuration
a unique IP address is usually defined in one VLAN for
management purpose only and a default gateway is
configured for access from remote subnets.
Cisco ( Config ) # interface vlan1
# ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.0
# no shutdown
# ip default-gateway 10.1.1.1
In this sample, for testing connectivity, one IP
address has been defined in each VLAN.
Cisco ( Config ) # interface vlan10
# ip address 10.1.10.2 255.255.255.0
# no shutdown
Cisco ( Config ) # interface vlan20
# ip address 10.1.20.2 255.255.255.0

VTP GVRP
Cisco supports the proprietary protocol VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) that allows propagation of
created, deleted or modified VLANs through multiple Cisco switches. ProCurve switches do not
support it.
On the other hand, HP supports the IEEE GVRP standard (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol)
which combines automatic creation of VLANs and automatic tagging of uplinks. GVRP is
supported on some Cisco switches running the CatOS software and interacts properly with
ProCurve switches. But its that GVRP support as been removed in the IOS for Catalyst switches

STP Algorithm
When the STA has determined which paths
are to be left available, it configures the
switch ports into distinct port roles. The port
roles describe their relation in the network
to the root bridge and whether they are
Non - Design Ports
allowed to forward traffic.
Root ports - Switch ports closest to the root
bridge. In the example, the root port on switch
S2 is F0/1 configured for the trunk link
between switch S2 and switch S1. The root
port on switch S3 is F0/1, configured for the
trunk link between switch S3 and switch S1.
Designated ports - All non-root ports that are
still permitted to forward traffic on the
network. In the example, switch ports F0/1
and F0/2 on switch S1 are designated ports.
Switch S2 also has its port F0/2 configured as a
designated port.

Glossary
STP is Spanning-Tree Protocol , The IEEE standard implementation of STP is 802.1D.
RSTP is Rapid Spanning-Tree Protocol defined by the 802.1w IEEE standard.
MSTP is Multiple Spanning-Tree Protocol defined by the 802.1s IEEE standard.
PVST is Per VLAN Spanning-tree proprietary implementation of STP on Cisco equipment
PVST+ is the implementation of PVST on 802.1q links.
Spanning-Tree on HP ProCurve Switches
802.1D and 802.1w (RSTP)
All HP ProCurve switches implement both of these STP standards.
On HP ProCurve, Spanning-Tree has to be activated, the default mode is then Rapid STP.
MSTP 802.1s
It is supported on most manageable switches except 2500 and 4100 switches Please refer to
switch documentation.
Procurve ( Config ) # Spanning-tree priority [ 0 15 ]

What Spanning-Tree mode should you choose between Cisco and ProCurve
Switches?
MSTP is obviously the ideal choice because it is standard based and supported by both
vendors, it converges quickly and allows load-balancing of traffic on uplinks with appropriate
configuration.
If not all your devices support MSTP yet, a progressive migration to MSTP can be put in place
as it interoperates with Standard, Rapid Spanning Tree modes and with PVST via the Native
Vlan.
Note that all STP modes interoperate via the standard spanning-tree mode also named the
Common Spanning-Tree (CST). So whatever is your choice, you should always carefully define
the root and secondary root of the CST. On Cisco look after priority of STP in the Native Vlan
(vlan 1 by default), on ProCurve look after the global priority of STP.
It default on MSTP on the latest ProCurve switches: 3500yl, 5400zl and 4200vl

Each router interface can then accept traffic from the VLAN associated with the switch interface that

When configuring inter-VLAN routing using the router-ona-stick model, the physical interface of the router must be
connected to a trunk link on the adjacent switch.
Subinterfaces are created for each unique VLAN/subnet
on the network. Each subinterface is assigned an IP
address specific to the subnet that it will be part of and
configured to VLAN tag frames for the VLAN that the
interface is to interact with. That way, the router can keep
the traffic from each subinterface separated as it
traverses the trunk link back to the switch.
Functionally, the router-on-a-stick model for inter-VLAN
routing is the same as using the traditional routing model,
but instead of using the physical interfaces to perform the
routing, subinterfaces of a single interface are used.

LACP is the Link Aggregation Control Protocol defined by the 802.3ad standard. Similarly to
FEC, it provides a way for both parts to negotiate a port aggregation. With LACP, one or more
additional links can operate as standby links that will activate only if another active link goes
down
Static and Dynamic trunks/channels
A Static trunks becomes an active trunk unconditionally and independently of the
configuration of the other side. A static trunk does not need any protocol to be created.
Dynamic trunks will be created if both sides agree to it. To do so, they exchange messages,
either PAgP or LACP, to negotiate their status. One side is said active (LACP) or desirable
(PAgP), meaning that it initiates the negotiation. The other side is said passive (LACP) or
auto (PAgP) and forms a link aggregation automatically.

RIP Version
On HP ProCurve switches, RIP is in version 2 on all interfaces. On Cisco RIP is sent in
Version 1 and can be received in version 1 and 2.
On HP ProCurve, changing version is done is the IP interface (vlan) level:
ProCurve1(config) #Vlan 110
#ip rip v1-only
#ip rip v2-only
#ip rip v1-compatible-v2
On Cisco, changing version is done in protocol level or in IP interface level:
Cisco1(config)
# router rip
# version 2
# int vlan 100
# ip rip send version 2
# ip rip receive version 1 2
