Lab 3 The OSI Model

Objectives: In this lab we learn about the OSI model as a method of understanding modern computer networks.

Equipment list: Cisco Catalyst switch + two or more computers

Notes and Observations: We learn how to find our IP and MAC adresses using command prompt. We learned how to do basic commands on a Cisco Catalyst switch and we connected a small local network to look at how the MAC address table works.

Diagrams, flowcharts, and figures: n/a

References: n/a

Questions: n/a

Conclusions: The OSI model is usefull for understanding how modern networks work.
