Worksheet to Complete for Group Hands-on Lab 5.5.1 Basic Spanning Tree Protocol Page 7. Step 2:
Answer the following questions based on the output. 1. What is the bridge ID priority for switches S1, S2, and S3 on VLAN 1? a. S1 _______ b. S2 _______ c. S3 _______ 2. Which switch is the root for the VLAN 1 spanning tree? ________________ 3. Which spanning tree ports are in the blocking state on the root switch? _________________ 4. Do either of the non-root switches have a blocking port? _________Which switch and port is in the blocking state? _________ 5. How does STP elect the root switch? _________________________ 6. Since the bridge priorities are all the same, what else does the switch use to determine the root? ________________________

Page 7, Step 3:
Based on the output from this example, when the link from S2 that is connected to the root switch goes down, what is its initial conclusion about the spanning tree root?______________________ Once S2 receives new information on Fa0/2, what new conclusion does it draw?____________________ Port Fa0/2 on S3 was previously in a blocking state before the link between S2 and S1 went down. What states does it go through as a result of the topology change? __________________________________

Page 8, Step 4:
Answer the following questions based on the output. 1. What has changed about the way that S2 forwards traffic? __________________________________ 2. What has changed about the way that S3 forwards traffic?__________________________________

Task 7: Clean Up
Erase the configurations and reload the default configurations for the switches. Return the PCs to their original state (DHCP, cabled to small desk switch, firewall)
