Exercise 5.1.1 * The 802.1 standard defines the 802 family of standards, describes the local area network, and defines the LAN address format.
Exercise 5.1.2 * The 802.3af standard originally defined PoE functionality. The standard was enhanced in the year 2009, the name of it is 802.3at.
Exercise 5.1.3 * 500 meters * 185 meters * 100 meters * Fiber Optic * UTP, 100 Meters * UTP, 100 Meters * Multi-Mode-Fiber Optic, 550 Meters * Single Mode- Fiber Optic * UTP 4 Pairs, 100 Meters
Exercise 5.1.4 * The numeric prefix before BASE means the speed in Mbps. The inclusion of a postfix of -T means that the cable is a twisted pair standard.
Lab 5.1 Review 1. The maximum speed of traffic would be between 10Mbps, and 100Mbps because they would have to negotiate the amount of bandwidth to send the node in between the two different network standards. 2. It is possible by also using a negotiation to uphold the maximum speed of the lesser UTP wire for example if Cat3 and Cat5e had to negotiate the Cat5e would have to meet Cat3’s standard maximum speed.

Exercise 5.2.1 * A MAC address must be unique for every NIC card produced because they are being compared to all other unicast MAC addresses in the same LAN. The effect would be that the MAC address would be duplicated.
Exercise 5.2.2 * It gives information on the connection its physical address and DHCP status.

Exercise 5.2.3 * The physical address for this connection is 00-0C-29-45-A4-2E.
Exercise 5.2.4 * The manufacturer for my NIC is VMware. The information given is the address of the manufacturer.
Exercise 5.2.5 * The IP address of my NIC card is 192.168.80.147. The address listed for the default gateway is 192.168.80.2.

Exercise 5.2.6 * The steps involved are checking if the source devices wants to
