QUESTION 3 [15 MARKS Catalyst 2930 Fat Faz Fa Fol Fas Fab Fa? Fol Fa Fa10 F11 F12 DA OC OD Hub OF Figure 1 Figure 1 shows the physical configuration of switch Catalyst 2950 and computers connected to it with the MAC address. a) The switch has the ability to forward the frame based on the MAC address. Explain FIVE (5) steps how the switch learns the MAC address of the computer connected to it and creates the MAC address table. Consider Source MAC address as 00-0d-88-c7-92-24 and destination MAC address as 00-od-56-09-fb-dl. [10 Marks b) In Figure 1, the computer connected to port Fa5 is sending the frame to the computer connected to Fal. What should be written in the source MAC address and Destination MAC address part of the frame in Table 2? [1 Mark] Preamble Source MAC address Table 2 Destination MAC Length Encapsulated End of Frame address Type Data c) Based on Question 3b), on the newly tumed on switch, the switch will send the packet to which list of ports? [2 marks] d) The computer connected to port Fa5 is sending the frame for ALL computers connected to the switch. What should be written in the destination MAC address of the frame? [1 Mark] e) Computers with MAC address OE want to send a frame to the computer with MAC address OF, Write all the port names that will be forwarded by packet and explain the [1 Mark] reason.
