Be advised that Smartphone0 and Fac_1 PC are set to static for demonstration
purpose, the rest still use DHCP as the Packet Tracer file is the one from Assignment 1.

c. Examining ARP Request

There are 2 copies of PDU sent by the Switch, MAC : 0002.16CD.C849

There are a total of 9 PDU replies.

There is no MAC address associated with ports since MAC address is bound
by network card.
The web server accepts incoming requests on port 80. Request made to the server
from devices varies depending on available ports.

2. Part 2: Reflection
-

Through this assignment, Ive learn how to configure CISCO routers and switches
using both GUI and CLI. Ive come to understand the fundamentals of computer
network better, on how subnetting works, how VLAN can be utilize to create an
elaborate system network. I believe that being able to design a good network with
minimal dependencies is the utmost important thing that Ive learned. I started of with
many prototype designs for the system, all of them works to certain degree. Like the
one that uses multiple router to subnet 2 different floors, or the one that uses 1 router
and a server for DHCP, but I realized the best solution was to use 1 router and
multiple switches. This allowed for arbitrary expansion, one that was required in the
first assignment. I ended up using one switch for each department, each with its own
IP addresses and subnet. This proved very useful when adding a web server/DNS
server.
