Ex 1.5

Ping from: Ping to: Connectivity Packets (PC1-Switch1 link) Packets (PC3-Switch1 link)
PC2 Switch1 No ARP N/A
PC2 PC3 No ARP N/A
PC2 192.168.1.34 No ARP N/A
PC3 Switch1 Yes N/A ARP, ICMP
PC3 PC2 No N/A ARP
PC3 192.168.1.34 No N/A ARP
Switch1 PC3 Yes N/A ICMP
Switch1 192.168.1.34 No N/A ARP

PCs from different vlans are unable to communicate since the switch is unable to make the connection between vlans. Neither PC1 nor PC2 can communicate with Switch1.

  • PC2 → Switch1
    • There's no connectivity because PC2's vlan has no configured IP;
  • PC2 → PC3
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans;
  • PC2 → 192.168.1.34
    • There's no connectivity because the IP doesn't exist;
  • PC3 → Switch1
    • There's connectivity because they are in the same vlan;
  • PC3 → PC2
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans;
  • PC3 → 192.168.1.34
    • There's no connectivity because the IP doesn't exist;
  • Switch1 → PC3
    • There's connectivity because they are in the same vlan;
  • Switch1 → 192.168.1.34
    • There's no connectivity because the IP doesn't exist;

ARP packets occur in every new communication in the same link. ICMP packets only occur when there is connectivity through the link.


Ex 2.2

Ping from: Ping to: Connectivity Filtered Packets
PC1 Switch1 Yes N/A
PC1 Switch2 Yes ARP, ICMP
PC1 PC2 No ARP
PC1 PC3 No ARP
PC2 Switch1 No ARP
PC2 Switch2 No ARP
PC2 PC2 Yes N/A
PC2 PC3 Yes ARP, ICMP
  • PC1 → Switch1
    • There's connectivity because they are in the same vlan;
  • PC1 → Switch2
    • There's connectivity because they are in the same vlan;
  • PC1 → PC2
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans;
  • PC1 → PC3
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans;
  • PC2 → Switch1
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans;
  • PC2 → Switch2
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans;
  • PC2 → PC2
    • There's connectivity because it's connecting with itself;
  • PC2 → PC3
    • There's connectivity because they are in the same vlan;

The appearances of packets in this case is similar to the ones in Ex 1.5.


Ex 3.5

Ping from: Ping to: Connectivity Filtered Packets
PC4 Switch4 No ARP
PC4 Router Yes ARP, ICMP
PC4 PC5 Yes ARP, ICMP
PC4 192.1.1.100 No ICMP
PC5 Switch4 No ARP, ICMP
PC5 Router Yes IMCP
PC5 PC4 Yes ICMP
PC5 192.1.1.100 No ICMP
  • PC4 → Switch4
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans and there are no valid routes between them;
  • PC4 → Router
    • There's connectivity because there's a valid route between them;
  • PC4 → PC5
    • There's connectivity because, even though they are in different vlans, there's a valid route through the router
  • PC4 → 192.1.1.100
    • There's no connectivity because the destination doesn't exist;
  • PC5 → Switch4
    • There's no connectivity because they are in different vlans and there are no valid paths between them;
  • PC5 → Router
    • There's connectivity because there's a valid route between them;
  • PC5 → PC4
    • There's connectivity because, even though they are in different vlans, there's a valid route through the router
  • PC5 → 192.1.1.100
    • There's no connectivity because the destination doesn't exist;
