- Q1. What is LAN & WAN ?
- Ans.
LAN stands for Local Area Network, which connects devices within a limited area. WAN stands for Wide Area Network, which connects devices over a large geographical area.
LAN is typically used in homes, schools, or small businesses.
LAN has high data transfer speeds and low latency.
Examples of LAN technologies include Ethernet and Wi-Fi.
WAN connects devices across cities, countries, or continents.
WAN has slower data trans...
- Q2. What is switch, router and modem?
- Ans.
Switch, router, and modem are networking devices used to connect devices and facilitate communication over a network.
Switch: Connects devices within a local area network (LAN) and forwards data packets between them. Example: Cisco Catalyst switch.
Router: Connects multiple networks together and routes data packets between them. Example: Cisco ISR router.
Modem: Converts digital data from a computer into analog signals fo...
- Q3. Switch: A switch is used to provide additional port, ex-panding the capability of the router. A network switch learns the association between the MAC addresses of connected devices and its switched ports. ...
- Ans.
A switch expands the number of ports on a network, a router directs traffic, and a modem provides internet access.
Switches learn MAC addresses to direct traffic efficiently
Routers manage traffic between devices on a network
Modems connect a network to the internet
Some ISPs provide hybrid modem/router devices

- Q1. What's the Switch? And which layer do work?
- Ans.
A switch is a networking device that operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model, handling data at the data link layer.
Switches forward data based on MAC addresses
Operate at Layer 2 of the OSI model
Used to create LANs and connect devices within a network
Helps reduce network congestion by only sending data to the intended recipient
- Q2. OSI layer what happens and what do you do
- Ans.
In the OSI model, each layer has specific functions and responsibilities in the communication process.
The OSI model consists of 7 layers, each with its own specific functions and responsibilities.
Each layer communicates with the adjacent layers to ensure data is properly transmitted.
For example, in the OSI model, Layer 1 (Physical layer) deals with the physical connection between devices, while Layer 2 (Data Link layer
- Q3. What is the difference between a Router and a Switch
- Ans.
Routers operate at Layer 3 of the OSI model and make decisions based on IP addresses, while switches operate at Layer 2 and make decisions based on MAC addresses.
Routers operate at Layer 3 of the OSI model, while switches operate at Layer 2.
Routers make decisions based on IP addresses, while switches make decisions based on MAC addresses.
Routers connect different networks together, while switches connect devices within...
- Q4. VLAN what is happening
- Q5. What's the DNS ?
- Ans.
DNS stands for Domain Name System, which translates domain names to IP addresses.
DNS is like a phone book for the internet, translating human-readable domain names (like google.com) into IP addresses (like 172.217.3.206).
It helps users access websites by translating domain names into IP addresses that computers can understand.
DNS also helps with email delivery by translating domain names into IP addresses for mail serv...

- Q1. How does a packet flow over the internet
- Ans.
A packet flows over the internet by being encapsulated in various network layers and routed through different devices.
Packet is created at the application layer with data and destination IP address
Packet is then encapsulated in a frame at the data link layer with source and destination MAC addresses
Frame is transmitted over physical medium to the next hop based on routing table
At each hop, the frame is decapsulated and...

- Q1. Technical Tricky questions
- Q2. Whay BGP is important in respect of OSPF
- Ans.
BGP and OSPF are both routing protocols, but BGP is used for inter-domain routing while OSPF is used for intra-domain routing.
BGP is important in respect of OSPF because it allows for communication between different autonomous systems (AS)
BGP is used to exchange routing information between different AS, while OSPF is used within a single AS
BGP is used to determine the best path for traffic to take between different AS,...
- Q3. What are differences betweeen BGP and IBGP
- Ans.
BGP is used for routing between different autonomous systems, while IBGP is used for routing within the same autonomous system.
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) is an exterior gateway protocol used for routing between different autonomous systems.
IBGP (Internal Border Gateway Protocol) is used for routing within the same autonomous system.
BGP is used to exchange routing information between different autonomous systems (ASe...
- Q4. Can we create SVI in L2 switch? IF not why
- Ans.
No, SVIs cannot be created in L2 switches.
SVI stands for Switched Virtual Interface.
It is a virtual interface that represents a VLAN on a Layer 3 switch.
L2 switches operate at Layer 2 of the OSI model and do not support routing or Layer 3 functionality.
SVIs are used for routing between VLANs, which is a Layer 3 function.
L2 switches can only create VLANs and assign ports to them for Layer 2 switching.
To enable Layer 3 f...
- Q5. What is best link of OMP route Internet or MPLS?
- Ans.
The best link of OMP route depends on the specific needs and requirements of the network.
Internet may be a better option for cost-effectiveness and flexibility, but MPLS may offer better reliability and security.
Consider factors such as bandwidth, latency, traffic volume, and application requirements.
Evaluate the pros and cons of each option before making a decision.
For example, if the network requires low latency and ...
- Q6. What is TLOC is Viptela SDWAN, why it is used
- Ans.
TLOC in Viptela SDWAN stands for Transport Locator and is used to identify the physical or virtual location of a device in the network.
TLOC is a unique identifier assigned to each device in the SDWAN network.
It helps in determining the optimal path for traffic routing.
TLOCs can be based on various parameters such as interface, IP address, or VPN.
They are used to define the connectivity between different sites in the ne...

- Q2. Vlan and vtp difference
- Ans.
VLAN and VTP are both networking concepts, but they serve different purposes.
VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is used to logically divide a single physical network into multiple virtual networks.
VTP (VLAN Trunking Protocol) is a Cisco proprietary protocol used to manage VLAN configurations across a network of switches.
VLANs provide segmentation, security, and broadcast control, while VTP simplifies VLAN management by ...
