There are TWO parts to this paper: attempt BOTH of them and follow
carefully the instructions in each.
Part 1
60% of the examination marks.
This part contains EIGHT questions and you should attempt ALL of
them. You are advised to spend about 1 hour 50 minutes on this part.
Part 2
40% of the examination marks.
This part contains THREE questions, of which you should attempt TWO.
You are advised to spend about 1 hour 10 minutes on this part.
At the end of the examination
Check that you have written your personal identifier and examination
number on each answer book used. Failure to do so will mean that
your work cannot be identified.
Put all your used answer books and your question paper together, with
your signed desk record on top. Fix them all together with the paper
fastener provided.

PART 1
This part carries 60% of the total examination marks. You should attempt
ALL the questions. Each question carries a different mark as shown.
You are advised to spend about 1 hour 50 minutes on this part.
Question 1
(8 marks)
Question 2
(6 marks)
Create a suitable aggregate address and subnet mask for the following
routes:
196.199.65.0
196.199.66.0
196.199.67.0
196.199.68.0
Be sure to show all your working.

Question 3
(9 marks)
Frame relay, ADSL and ISDN are all WAN technologies. For each, state
its:
bandwidth
connection type
typical use.
(9 marks)
Question 4
(9 marks)
Write a plan for an extended access control list (ACL) to meet the
requirements listed below. Explain each line in your list.
(a) Block traffic coming from the third subnet (use subnet 0) of
196.18.12.0/27 from accessing HTTP.
(4 marks)
(b) All hosts should be prevented from accessing 177.0.0.1 for any
purpose.
(3 marks)
(c)
Question 5
(6 marks)
Given the Class A network 10.0.0.0, create a subnet mask for the 600
subnets. Identify the 100th and VLSM for a further 25 subnets. Assume
subnet 0 is used. Show all your working.

PART 2
This part carries 40% of the total examination marks. You should attempt
TWO questions from this part. Each question carries 20 marks.
You are advised to spend about 1 hour 10 minutes on this part.
Question 9
(20 marks)
(ii)
Fragment free
Explain the principles that underlie the operation of the STP (spanning
tree protocol) and the consequences of not using such a protocol.

Part 1
Question 1
(a) CHAP is used at the start-up of a link and periodically to verify the
identity of the remote node.
(b) Three-way handshake:
Challenge a message is sent.
Response a hash is applied to the message and its returned.
Accept/reject the response is checked against the expected
hash value.

Question 4
(a) access-list 101 deny tcp 196.18.12.64 0.0.0.31 any eq 80 (or www)
Only a source address is required as traffic is blocked to any address
using the HTTP protocol.
(b) access-list 101 deny ip any host 177.0.0.1
The destination address is specified with the term host as it is a
specific address.
(c)
Question 5
10 bits allows a maximum of 1024 subnets, so for 600 subnets the mask is
255.255.192.0 or /18.
The binary value for 99 (which is the 100th when you count from 0) has to

Question 9
(a) Store and forward switching has the highest latency as it starts
forwarding only after the entire frame is received. This method
ensures that all errors are detected.
Fragment free switching starts forwarding after receiving 64 bytes.
This value is significant as it will include all collision fragments, which
can then be discarded.
Fast forward switching has the lowest latency. Forwarding begins as
soon as the destination address has been received. Any frames with
errors will still be forwarded, which can lead to high traffic levels.
(b) A VLAN is a logical broadcast domain that can cover multiple physical
LAN segments. The benefits include easy administration, improved
security and flexibility.
(c)
Question 10
STP ensures that there is only one logical path between all
destinations on the network by intentionally blocking redundant paths
that could cause a loop. A port is considered blocked when network
traffic is prevented from entering or leaving that port. This does not
include bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) frames that are used by STP
to prevent loops. Blocking the redundant paths is critical to preventing
loops on the network. The physical paths still exist to provide
redundancy, but these paths are disabled to prevent the loops from
occurring. If the path is ever needed to compensate for a network
cable or switch failure, STP recalculates the paths and unblocks the
necessary ports to allow the redundant path to become active.
(a) Routing is the process that a router uses to forward packets toward
the destination network. Routing decisions are made by comparing
destination IP addresses with a routing table and forwarding the packet
on the designated interface. To make the correct decisions, routers must
learn how to reach remote networks by sharing information with other
routers. Routing protocols (such as EIGRP) are used to learn about
other networks. Routes can be determined dynamically or statically.
(b) Characteristics of OSPF:
The shortest path first algorithm is used to find the lowest cost path.
Characteristics of EIGRP:
