    1. The document describes configuring Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) on a network topology with two core switches (Core-1 and Core-2) connected to two access switches (Access-1 and Access-2). 2. The tasks involve assigning PCs to VLANs 711 and 712, configuring trunk ports between the core and access switches, verifying the RSTP configuration, and identifying the root bridge and path costs. 3. Key steps include allowing VLANs 711-712 on trunk ports, identifying the root bridge and designated ports, and noting the path costs between switches on the topology diagram.

    Lab 5.1: Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
    ===================================================================================
    ===========================

    =======================================================
    Task 1: Assign PCs to VLAN 711
    =======================================================

    ===================
    PC-1
    ===================

    1. Access PC-1.
    2. Open Putty and open a SSH session to Core-1 (10.251.0.1) and login with
    cxf7/aruba123

    ===================
    Core-1 (via PC-1)
    ===================
    10.251.7.1

    Core-1# page 40

    4. Confirm STP is active.


    Core-1# configure terminal
    Core-1(config)# show spanning-tree

    ===================
    PC-1
    ===================
    5. Open Putty and open a SSH session to Core-2 (10.251.0.2), and login with:
    cxf7/aruba123

    ===================
    Core-2 (via PC-1)
    ===================
    6. Confirm STP is active.
    Core-2(config)# show spanning-tree | include Spanning

    ===================
    Access-1 and Access-2
    ===================
    7. Repeat step 6 on Access-1 and Access-2.

    T11-Access-1# show spanning-tree | include Spanning

    T11-Access-2# show spanning-tree | include Spanning

    ===================
    Access-1
    ===================
    8. Move back to Access-1.
    9. Allow VLANs 711 and 712 on interface 1/1/22 and enable the port.

    T11-Access-1# configure terminal


    T11-Access-1(config)# interface 1/1/22
    T11-Access-1(config-if)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712
    T11-Access-1(config-if)# no shutdown
    T11-Access-2(config-if)# show lldp neighbor-info
    T11-Access-1(config-if)# description TO_CORE-2_PORT-Y

    ===================
    Access-2
    ===================
    12. Move to Access-2 and repeat steps 9 to 11. The remote port that interface
    1/1/22
    is connected to on the Core-2 side will be 1/1/Z.
    T11-Access-2# configure terminal
    T11-Access-2(config)# interface 1/1/22
    T11-Access-2(config-if)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712
    T11-Access-2(config-if)# no shutdown
    T11-Access-2(config-if)# show lldp neighbor-info
    T11-Access-2(config-if)# description TO_CORE-2_PORT-Z
    T11-Access-2(config-if)#

    ===================
    Core-1
    ===================
    13. Use LLDP to discover the ports used for the connection to Core-2. Use a
    filtered
    version of this command to display relevant output only.
    Core-1# show lldp neighbor-info | exclude 1/21

    14. Move to ports 1/1/43 and 1/1/44 and make each port a trunk interface that
    allows
    VLANs 711 and 712.
    NOTE: Replace the highlighted “7” for your table number.
    Core-1(config)# interface 1/1/43-1/1/44
    Core-1(config-if-<1/1/43-1/1/44>)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712
    Core-1(config-if-<1/1/43-1/1/44>)# exit
    Core-1(config)#

    ===================
    Core-2
    ===================
    15. Open the SSH session of Core-2.
    16. Define the height of the page to 40 lines.
    Core-2# page 40

    17. Create VLAN 711 and name it T7-EMPLOYEE.


    Core-2# configure terminal
    Core-2(config)# vlan 711
    Core-2(config-vlan-1111)# name T7_EMPLOYEES
    Core-2(config-vlan-1111)# exit

    18. Create VLAN 712 and name it T7_MANAGERS.


    Core-2# configure terminal
    Core-2(config)# vlan 712
    Core-2(config-vlan-1112)# name T7_MANAGERS
    Core-2(config-vlan-1112)# exit

    19. Access port 1/1/Y. Make the description TO_T7-ACCESS-1_PORT-22 and make
    the interface a trunk interface that allows VLANs 711 and 712.

    Core-2(config)# interface 1/1/Y


    Core-2(config-if)# description TO_T7-ACCESS-1_PORT-22
    Core-2(config-if)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712

    Core-2(config)# interface 1/1/Z


    Core-2(config-if)# description TO_T7-ACCESS-2_PORT-22
    Core-2(config-if)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712

    21. Access ports 1/1/43 and 1/1/44, make the port a trunk interface that allows
    VLANs
    711 and 712.
    Core-2(config-if)# exit
    Core-2(config)# interface 1/1/43-1/1/44
    Core-2(config-if-<1/1/43-1/1/44>)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712
    Core-2(config-if-<1/1/43-1/1/44>)# exit

    Core-2(config)# interface lag 10


    Core-2(config-lag-if)# vlan trunk allowed 711-712
    Core-2(config-lag-if)# exit
    Core-2(config)#

    Task 2: Verify the Topology
    =======================================================
    Access-1
    1. Access the terminal session to Access-1.
    2. Show a filtered version of the “show spanning-tree” to get the switch MAC
    address
    and switch priority only.
    T11-Access-1# show spanning-tree | begin 1 Bridge

    Core-1, Core-2 and Access-2


    4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 with Core-1, Core-2 and Access-2.
    T11-Access-2# show spanning-tree | begin 1 Bridge

    Core-1# show spanning-tree | begin 1 Bridge


    Core-2# show spanning-tree | begin 1 Bridge

    5. On figure 5.1-2 put a start by the switch that you have identified as Root
    Bridge.
    Other fields you will fill out in later steps
    ===================
    Access-1
    ===================
    6. Move back to Access-1 and run “show spanning-tree” command. What are the
    path costs of the ports?
    T11-Access-1# show spanning-tree | begin 30 Port

    7. All ports in this topology should have the same cost. Write down the path costs
    of all links on figure 5.1-2

    8. Issue the “show spanning-tree detail” command. The output will be very long.

    9. Now try now a filtered version of the “show spanning-tree detail” command in
    order to find the Designated bridge on each uplink.
    T11-Access-1(config)# show spanning-tree detail | begin 12 "Port 1/1/21"

    ===================
    Access-2
    ===================

    11. Move to Access-2 and repeat step 9.


    T11-Access-2# show spanning-tree detail | begin 12 "Port 1/1/21"

    12. Write down the Designated Bridge of these links on figure 5.1-2.

    ===================
    Core-2
    ===================

    13. Move to Core-2 and repeat step 9 for ports 1/1/43 and 1/1/44.

    Core-2# show spanning-tree detail | begin 12 "Port 1/1/43"
