What is the primary purpose of a VLAN? - To create a broadcast domain; enable
segmentation or isolation of broadcast traffic
Unassigned Cisco switch ports remain in which VLAN? - VLAN 1
Do VLANs prevent broadcast storms? - No, they minimize the size and effect of the broadcast
storm on neighbor switches and hosts
What are four advantages to using VLANs? - 1. Enable access to network services based on
logical requirements
2. Network security is optimized with VLANs that enable managing and filtering sensitive traffic
from other network traffic
3. Bandwidth efficiency is accomplished through segmenting traffic into smaller broadcast
domains
4. Easier add/move/delete administration of endpoints on a network and scalability for larger
enterprise deployments

What command lists all VLANs configured on a switch? - show vlan or show vlan brief
What command is used to display the switch ports assigned to a single VLAN? - show vlan id

is on a different subnet than the endpoint
Does the Cisco default switch configuration have an IP default gateway? - No
What command is used to create an IP default gateway? - ip default-gateway <ip_address>
What is the primary purpose of a switch? - To make forwarding decisions based on
destination MAC address
