CCNP BSCI Notes – Understanding Simple Single-Area OSPF
Thursday, November 19th, 2009OSPF Fundamentals Link-state routing protocols utilize more internal resources in favor of reducing bandwidth consumption. All OSPF routers in an area share the same Link State Database (LSDB). Link State Advertisements (LSAs) are flooded to all neighboring routers.

CCNP BCMSN Notes – Cisco Unified Wireless Network
Tuesday, November 10th, 2009Autonomous APs can be burdensome to manage in large numbers; a lightweight solution is preferred. Lightweight Access Points (LAPs) communicate with a centralized Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) through Lightweight Wireless Access Point Protocol (LWAPP) tunnels. The division of layer two functions between a LAP and WLC is referred to as a split-MAC architecture. LWAPP tunnels: [...]
CCNP BCMSN Notes – Wireless Architecture and Design
Tuesday, November 10th, 2009Legacy Authentication Types Open Authentication No authentication is used; any client can associate to an AP. Pre-Shared Key (PSK) A pre-shared static Wired Equivalence Protocol (WEP) key authenticates the client to the AP. Sorry you have no rights to view this post!

CCNP BCMSN Notes – Wireless LAN Overview
Monday, November 9th, 2009Frame Transmission Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance (CSMA/CA) is used in 802.11 WLANs to avoid collisions. The Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) handles the transmission of frames. If one station is currently transmitting, a station wishing to transmit must wait for the current station to finish plus the length of the DCF Inter-frame Space (DIFS) and [...]
CCNP BCMSN Notes – Securing with VLANs
Monday, November 9th, 2009VLAN Access Lists (VACLs) VACLs can filter traffic within a VLAN and do not require a routed interface. A VACL can match traffic from a MAC, IP, or IPX access list.
