Answer all question required based on this report only a$)$ Ethernet Cables There are three types of Ethernet cables. $1)$ Straight$-$through cable$\mathrm{.}2)$ Crossover cable$\mathrm{.}3)$ Rolled cable. $1)$ Straight$-$Through Cables: used to connect. i$.$Host to switch or hub. ii$.$Router to switch or hub. Four wires are used in straight$-$through cable to connect Ethernet devices. It is relatively simple to create. The figure below shows the four wires used in a straight$-$through Ethernet cable. $2)$ Crossover Cable: used to connect. i$.$Switch to switch ii$.$Hub to hub iii.Host to host iv$.$Hub to switch v$.$Router direct to host The same four wires are used in this cable as in the straight$-$through cable; we just connect different pins together. The figure below shows how the four wires are used in a crossover Ethernet cable. $3)$ Rolled Cable: used to connect a host to a router console serial communication.Eight wires are used to send information. The figure below shows the eight wires used in a rolled cable. Identify the three types of cables in the lab. What does each wire in the Ethernet cable do$?$ Procedure $1.$Add local laptop, remote laptop, cisco $2960$ switches and cisco $2811$ routers. $2.$Rename each network component according to Fig. $1$ by selecting the default name of each component through a right$-$click. $3.$Establish a connection between the RS $232$ port on the local laptop and the console port on the switch using the proper cable. $4.$Establish a connection between FastEthernet$0/1$ port on the switch and the FastEthernet$0/0$ port on router using the proper cable. $5.$Establish a connection between FastEthernet$0/1$ port on the router and the FastEthernet$0$ port on remote laptop using the proper cable. $6.$Assign IP address to remote laptop from class B$.$ IP Address Range Class Address Range $1.$A $0\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0$ to $127\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}2552.$B $128\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0$ to $191\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}2553.$C $192\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0\mathrm{.}0$ to $223\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}255\mathrm{.}2557.$ Configure switch through local laptop.

Explain the process of creating a network connection between two devices using a switch and network cables. Mention the different types of network switches available in Cisco Packet Tracer. At what network layer are switches used? How many types of cables are used in these experiments, and what are they? How many Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces does the switch have? What event would make an interface go up$?$ How can you configure a router to support VLANs and enable communication between different VLANs in Packet Tracer? Explain the rationale behind the step Test telnet connectivity from the Remote Laptop using the telnet client. Why should you configure the vty password for the switch? What is LAN and VLAN? What are common uses for Telnet? Is Telnet secure$?$
