Answers:

1. 32768:aa-bb-cc-11-22-33.

 

2. "B, C." The listening and learning stages' duration is determined by the Forward Delay timer.

 

3. Portfast allows a port to skip the listening and learning stages, and should only be used on ports leading to a single host device.

 

4. "E". The switch will create the VLAN for you!

 

5. Router-on-a-stick allows inter-VLAN communication, which a Layer 2 switch can't do on its own.

 

6. "D". Only those hosts in the same VLAN will receive a copy of that broadcast.

 

7. The tag identifies the VLAN to which the frame is intended.
