Appendix A shows two different frames, one a PPP frame and 5 Marks
the other an Ethernet frame. Discuss the differences
between them and describe how they are used on a network.
In the Appendix A 2 frames PPP frame and Ethernet frame
are shown. PPP assists to transmit data packets between
p2p links. It encapsulated several data link layer protocols. It
uses link control protocol to connect 2 point to point links.
Also it supports 3 authentication protocol PAP, CHAP and
EAP to verify security levels.
On the other hand Ethernet II frame contains hexadecimal
value. The value indicates higher layer protocol type. Several
upper layer protocols are supported by Ethernet II. It contains
the following data source and destination address, source

Routers are more secured but Layer-3 switches are used for
VLAN purpose. VLAN can increase the security of the local
network.

Explanation
The new proposed design is 3 layer hierarchical designs
where layer 3 switches, layer 2 switch, router and firewall
are used. For redundancy and disaster recovery backup
network devices are used. In this proposed network the
layer 2 switches will be acting as access layer devices. The
layer 3 switch will act as the layer distribution layer device. In
the distribution layer (layer 3 switch) the VLAN will be
configured.
