- Zero-configuration networking (zeroconf) is a set of technologies that automatically creates a usable computer network based on the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) when computers or network peripherals are interconnected. It does not require manual operator intervention or special configuration servers.

Self-Evaluation
- At this point in the semester, you should be confident in your understanding of Cisco IOS, routing protocols, etc., to complete this Lab-04 (OSPF, Serial, DHCP), using only the network diagram as your guide, with 100% accuracy, in less than 30 minutes.
- If that’s not the case, then you must practice, practice, practice, to gain the necessary skills and confidence.
- Practice makes improvement.
OSPF Hello and Dead Interval
OSPF uses hello packets and two timers to check if a neighbor is still alive or not:
- Hello Interval: defines how often we send the hello packet.
- Dead Interval: defines how long we should wait for hello packets before we declare the neighbor dead.
Set the hello and dead intervals on interfaces which communicate with neighboring routers.
(config)# interface FastEthernet 0/0 (config-if)# ip ospf hello-interval <seconds> (config-if)# ip ospf dead-interval <seconds> [ Defaults to four times the value of the hello interval ]
Show the Router ID, Hello, and Dead Intervals on an Interface

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network)
- VLAN 1 is the default Ethernet VLAN
- VLANs 1002 through 1005 are automatically created and cannot be deleted
- What are the maximum number of VLANs, including the reserved VLANs?
- Trunking
- What is the purpose of a Trunk port?
- IEEE 802.1Q Encapsulation
InterVLAN Routing
- A Stub router, One-armed router or Router on a Stick (RonS) is a router configured to route traffic between virtual local area networks (VLANs).
- It has only a single Ethernet NIC that is part of two or more Virtual LANs, enabling them to be joined.
- The physical interface is divided into logical interfaces (known as sub-interfaces), one for each VLAN, configured as trunk interfaces.
- Search: Router on a Stick
SVI (Switched Virtual Interface)
- A Switch Virtual Interfaces (SVI) represents a logical Layer 3 interface on a switch.
- VLANs divide broadcast domains in a LAN environment. Whenever hosts in one VLAN need to communicate with hosts in another VLAN, the traffic must be routed between them. This is known as inter-VLAN routing. On Layer 3 switches it is accomplished by the creation of Layer 3 interfaces (SVIs).
VLAN Diagnostic Commands
- S1# show vlan
- S1# show vlan brief
- S1# show interface trunk
- S1# show interfaces switchport
- S1# show interface fa0/15 switchport
- S1# show running-config
- S1# show arp
- S1# clear arp
