Common Media Types
Layer one hardware and topology can vary.
Many different types of media can carry data.
Layer 2 (Data Link) has the task of making it all work.
Data Link layer is a Universal Key to MediaMany Media for Ethernet. To layer Three, it all looks the same.
Ethernet Layer 2 and 1 Specifications Ethernet – The oldest, DEC, Intel & Xerox 802.3 – 10BaseT 802.3u (Fast Ethernet) 802.3z (Gigabit Ethernet over Fiber) 802.3ab (Gigabit Ethernet over UTP).
Note: The image in 5.1.3 scrolls right to left.
Here at Ulster
Each classroom workstation is wired with 100BaseT to a switch. (1-2 rooms per switch).
The switches connect to the backbone which is 1000Base-LX(single mode?) fiber.
Routers provide security at critical network junctions and connectivity to servers and to the internet.
Cable Types - Straight
All 8 pins connect to the same pins on each end of the cable
Used for most Ethernet connections
EIA 568A or 568B, same on both ends
Crossover
A special cable cable used to connect two devices of the same type. Workstation to workstation Sometimes between other devices
EIA 568A on one end, EIA 568B on other Transmit and receive pairs are swapped
Rollover
Used to connect a workstation serial port to the console port on a router or programmable switch
Also called a console cable All pins swap end to end (1-8, 2-7, etc)
Which Cable to Use?
Every connection between computers or routers must have an odd number of swaps between the transmit and receive pairs. (Green-Green/White and Orange-Orange/White).
If a device has a plain port number [1,2,8], the device does NOT swap the pairs.
If a device has an X after the port number [1x, 2x, 24x], the device DOES swap the pairs.
Which Cable to Use?
Every connection between computers or routers must have an odd number of swaps between the transmit and receive pairs.
An even number of swaps brings the pairs back to a straight through condition.
Generally: Switches and hubs swap pairs and Routers do not.
The Usual, Bartender
Crossover Cable Required: Switch to Switch, Switch to Hub or Hub to Hub Router to Router PC to PC Router to PC
Straight Through Cable Required: Switch to Router Switch to PC or Server Hub to PC or Server
Ports on A Cisco 1900 Switch
Are these crossover or straight ports? What kind of cable connects a workstation to
these ports? What kind of cable would be used to connect this
switch to another 1900 series switch?
Repeaters and Hubs
Already covered in chapter three Types of Hubs:
Passive – Physical Connection Only. Does not require power to work.
Active – Retimes and cleans up the signal. Requires a power source.
Smart - Include a microprocessor chip and diagnostic capabilities.
Wireless
Infrared – Line of sight RF – passes obstructions (300-500 feet) Spread Spectrum for reliability and security
The frequency of the RF carrier wave varies. Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS). Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS). Technical details not required here.
Switch Functions
Build Switching Tables Which MAC address(es) are on each port?
Switching data to the single proper port. This may occur simultaneously for several
conversations. 10 or 100 Base T (Most hubs run at only
10BaseT) VirtualLANS – Security Direct Plug and play replacement for Hub
Peer to Peer
• Everyone is equal
• Each node controls its own resources
• No centralized administration
Client Server Network
Centralized resources Centralized Administration Central backup location Services:
Authentication Print Server File Server Application Server Mail Server Web Server
ISDN BRI
Uses existing Copper Wire. Dial on Demand Dial on demand backup lines for faster links. Typically uses two 64k bps data channels
plus one 16k channel for overhead. May use only one 64k data channel and the
other channel for voice telephone. Uses PPP encoding for the data channels.
DSL and Cable
Digital Subscriber Line Uses existing phone lines WITHIN 18,000
feet of the Central Office. Data rates up to about T1 speed (1.5Mbps)
Cable uses existing coaxial lines. Speed similar to DSL but may be faster. Shared bandwidth.
Cisco Serial Connectors and Cables 60 Pin standard. 4 rows of 15 pins each. Smart Serial (mini) connector. Cables are labeled DTE or DCE DCE cable includes a clock signal to control
the speed of the link DTE cable does not include the clock signal Common carriers ALWAYS want to control
the clock. WHY? In our labs one router on each link will
provide a clock signal to the other.
CSU/DSU
channel/data service unit
Similar to a modem but for serial digital links. This unit will control the clock in most
installations. The router will not provide a clock signal to the CSU/DSU
It might provide a clock to another router on a different link.
Two Hub LAN with Router for connectivity, security and isolation
Two Broadcast domains. A router filters traffic by destination and by rules
A two router network with a serial link
Note: The serial link may be a leased line several miles long.
Similar to Campus to BRC link.
Router Port Names
10BASE-T = Ethernet 0 or E0 AUI = Ethernet 1 or E1
Fast Ethernet = Fastethernet 0 or F0
Serial Ports = Serial 0/0 and Serial 0/1 or S0/0 and S0/1
S0/0 Means interface card #0 and port #0. The WIC can have 1 or 2 ports
ISDN Router Connections There are two types of router jacks for ISDN
connections. These are S/T and U. A U interface has an integrated NT1* An S/T interface requires an external NT1*
* ”Network terminator” - Used to connect four-wire subscriber wiring to the conventional two-wire “local loop”.
In North America, the customer typically provides the NT1, while in the rest of the world the service provider provides the NT1 device.
ISDN Cables
Caution: It is important to insert the cable running from an ISDN BRI port only to an ISDN jack or an ISDN switch.
ISDN BRI uses voltages that can seriously damage non-ISDN devices.
You cannot connect two ISDN routers back to back unless you go through a telephone company type ISDN switch.
DSL and Cable Routers
To connect a router for DSL service, use a phone cable with RJ-11 connectors. DSL works over standard telephone lines using pins 3 and 4 on a standard RJ-11 connector.
Cable Modems connect to ethernet ports on a router using a standard straight through cable.
Cisco says the modem uses a BNC jack to connect to cable. Many use standard F59 cable TV connectors.
Some routers have built in cable modems.
Programming Cisco Devices
Talk to the device through the console connection using an 8 pin rollover cable (NOT crossover), a workstation and a terminal emulator program.
Settings are 9600 Baud, No Parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.
Do not use the AUX port. It is for a modem connection only. It will not work unless first turned on via the console port.
Hyperterminal
Is pre configured on our lab workstatons. You can find it on any Windows computer
through START, Programs, Accessories, Communications.
Other terminal emulators such as “CRT” are available.
