Which command will show the MAC addresses of stations connected to switch ports?


Which command will show the MAC addresses of stations connected to switch ports?

A. show mac-address
B. show arp
C. show table
D. show switchport

Answer : A

Explanation:

One of the three main functions of a switch is to learn which devices—that is, MAC addresses—are associated with which interfaces or ports.
This information is stored in a port address, or content addressable memory (CAM) table. You can view the CAM table by using the show mac-address-table command.

The command show mac-address is short form of show mac-address-table.



Topology

In this simple topology there were four hosts connected to Sw-Host switch. Each of its IP address and MAC address are shown below the Host icons. The switch Sw-Hosts has been assigned IP address of 192.168.1.254. After some transactions of data between all hosts. Each and every MAC address of hosts will be stored in CAM table. Below is the output of show mac-address command used in Sw-Hosts:

Also below is the output of show arp command. But you cant find the interface used to connect to the hosts.

CCNA EIGRP Simulation (NEW)

After adding Interior router, no routing updates are being exchanged between Perimeter and the new location. All other inter connectivity and Internet access for the existing locations of the company are working properly. The Task is to identify the fault(s) and correct the router configurations to provide full connectivity between the routers. Access to the router CLI can be gained by clicking on the appropriate host. All passwords on all routers are cisco. IP Address are listed in the chart below Steps Remove invalid Autonomous System Number and add the correct Autonomous System Number Interior router. The Autonomous System Number is found in the topology: Add the network address of Fa0/0 interface of Perimeter router in EIGRP configuration. Because EIGRP neighbor relationship is not possible without the configuring connected interfaces. Answer Commands First we shou...

CCNA Access List Control (ACL) Simulation

  A network associate is adding security to the configuration of the Corp1 router. The user on host C should be able to use a web browser to access financial information from the Finance Web Server. No other hosts from the LAN nor the Core should be able to use a web browser to access this server. Since there are multiple resources for the corporation at this location including other resources on the Finance Web Server, all other traffic should be allowed. The task is to create and apply a numbered access-list with no more than three statements that will allow ONLY host C web access to the Finance Web Server. No other hosts will have web access to the Finance Web Server. All other traffic is permitted. Access to the router CLI can be gained by clicking on the appropriate host. All passwords have been temporarily set to “cisco”. The Core connection uses an IP address of 198.18.196.65 The computers in the Hosts LAN have been assigned addr...
