closes. Use this report template to answer all questions accurately, typed, and with computer
generated diagrams, if and where applicable.
Report Templates, including empty tables, must
remain unchanged with the exception of (1) an author’s name, (2) tables filled in and (3) answers to

Activity 1 (6 points) – Construct Basic Single Switch Network
1.
Record the MAC and IP address for each PC on the bench in the table below.
IP Address

Activity 3 – (6 points) - Exploring the Switch Source Address Table
2.
Record the SAT entries in the table below. Explain step by step how this SAT table was built
considering the messages (pings) that have been sent on your network. In other words, how
did the entries get added to the table?
Switch Port

PC Name (PC1, PC2,
PC3 etc.)

PC 6

PC 5
The SAT entries were populated when PC 4 and PC 6 pinged PC 5. When a device on the network
communicates with another device, the switch records the MAC address of the sending device along
with the corresponding switch port in its SAT.

Activity 4 (12 points) – Examining Switched Traffic Flow
3.
Use the table below to identify the ping results and explain why each ping is visible or not
on each segment. Be sure to reference the switch SAT in your answer.

Yes
PC 4 is pinging PC 5 on a switch therefore you will see the traffic
PC 2 /5
Yes
PC 5 is being pinged by PC 4 on a switch therefore you will see
the traffic
PC 3 /6
no
Information between two computers cannot be shared on the
third computer, because the computers are connected by a
switch not a hub.

Explain what is different from the previous experiment with only your single bench switch
and why. Consider what the switch may be doing as a result of the reconfiguration (see list

above). Are the entries for MAC addresses other than the PCs? If so, explain what devices
they are for and why they are needed.
The SAT entries were populated at the moment of both PC4 and PC6 pinging PC5. When a device
on the network communicates with another device, the switch records the MAC address of the
sending device along with the corresponding switch port in its SAT. Data has to go through the
port that the opposing switch is connected from, which is why the PCs on the opposite bench
have the same switch port as the port to the switch.
6.
Use the table below to identify each of the ping results and explain why each is visible or not
on each segment. Be sure to reference the switch SAT in your answer.

needed. Include all dynamic entries. Are there entries for MAC addresses other than the
PCs? If so, include them.

Explain
what is different
from the previous experiment with only your single bench switch
and
why
.
The differences from the previous experiment are due to the addition of a second switch and
the MAC addresses associated with the switches themselves. Switches maintain their own
MAC address tables to efficiently forward traffic, and these entries have been added. Data
has to go through the port that the opposing switch is connected from, which is why the PCs
on the opposite bench have the same switch port as the port to the switch.

each segment. Be sure to reference the switch SAT in your answer.

No, because it's not part of the connection between PC 2 and PC 6.

Yes, because it's part of the connection, and PC 2 pings PC 6.

Yes, because it's part of the connection, and PC 2 pings PC 6.

Record the SAT entries on both switches in the tables below. Use more or fewer lines as
needed. Include all dynamic entries. Are there entries for MAC addresses other than the
PCs? If so, include them.

Explain
what is different
from the previous experiment before PC5 moved
and why
.
In the previous experiment before moving PC 5, PC 5 was connected to Switch 2, and its
MAC address was associated with that switch. After moving PC 5 to Switch 1, the MAC
address of PC 5 is now associated with Switch 1. This change in the physical location of PC 5
has resulted in changes to the SAT entries in both switches.

Yes, because it's part of the connection, and PC 2 pings PC 6.

Yes, because it's part of the connection, and PC 2 pings PC 6.

Circuit Logic. Match each statement to the proper circuit. All circuits have been drawn with a light (L) to represent the load, whether it is a motor, bell, or any other kind of load. In addition, each switch is illustrated as a pushbutton whether it is a maintained switch, momentary switch, pushbutton, switch-on target, or any other type of switch.

An aircraft’s functional monitoring system.
A circuit is required to indicate the status of the landing gears prior to Take off. The plane has three landing gear: right, left and center. After the takeoff, the pilot will activate ‘gear up’ switch to retract the landing gear. Assume that has been done. A green LED will turn on in the cockpit only if all three landing (03) gear are properly retracted. A red LED will turn on if any of the three (03) landing gear fail to retract properly after takeoff. When landing gear is properly retracted, a corresponding sensor will provide High voltage to a logic circuit. When a landing gear has failed to retract properly, the sensor provides a Low voltage signal to the logic circuit. Design and implement the circuit of the system with the help of logic gate.
