Security PP2 Switch Fun<wbr>ctionality :

Tick all the Correct Switch Functionalities :

Switches uses hardware Based processing by processing application specific integrated circuits called ASCIs

STORE AND FORWARD – default mode on modern switches

A cut through switch starts the forwarding decision immediately after the destination address is received.

Layer 2 Switch have the functionalities of a Router

� Layer 2 switches does not process data faster than routers because they do not take up more time to look up the layer 3 header information

Forward/filter Decisions - the process by which the switch decides to send to forward the frame out of the correct destination port: The frame is forwarded by looking up the mac address table and check the associated switch Interface then forwards the frame throughout this interface.(Give a Suitable example of this scenario)

Tick the Correct Ones :

� ARP - ARP is the protocol that can be used to discover the MAC address of the destination host

� ARP = Address Resolution Protocol

The Switch Learning Protocols discovers the MAC addresses associated with a give IP Address

The ARP learning process discovers the MAC addresses that are accessible via a given switch port

The switch learning process discovers the MAC addresses that are accessible via a given switch port

The ARP protocol discovers the MAC addresses associated with a give IP Address

Give a Comparison OF a Layer 2 Switch with a Router in how they handle headers and their Processing Speed and Compare the Processing Speeds between :

Give a Detailed Comparison between Cut through and Store And Forward , (construct a descriptive statement which is the best to use )

What Happens in a switch when Communication between the host and the switch takes too long to commuinicate?
