Chapter 12: Initial Switch Configuration
EXERCISE 12-2
CAM Tables
The following sections deal with the CAM table and port security. This exercise
will help you become more familiar with the CAM table on a 2950 switch. You'll
perform this lab using Boson's NetSim simulator. You can find a picture of the
network diagram for the simulator in the Introduction of this book.
10. At the top of the simulator in the menu bar, click the eStations icon and
11. Verify the MAC address on Host-2.
1. Start up the simulator and click the Lab Navigator button.
2. Double-click Exercise 12-2 and click the Load Lab button. This will load the
lab configuration based on Exercise 12-1.
3. On the 2950-1 switch, access Privilege EXEC mode and examine the CAM
table. If any entries appear, clear them.
4. At the top of the simulator in the menu bar, click the eSwitches icon and
choose 2950-1.

typing show mac-address-table.
6. Clear the CAM table by typing clear mac-address-table dynamic.
7. On the 2950-1, ping Host-1: type ping 192.168.1.10. Examine the
CAM table: show mac-address-table. What is the MAC address
of Host-1? The MAC address will be different for each computer on
which NetSim is installed. With what interface is it associated (should be
fastethernet0/3)?
8. On the 2950-1, ping Host-2: type ping 192.168.1.11. Examine
the CAM table: show mac-address-table. What is the MAC
address of Host-2? With what interface is it associated (should be
fastethernet0/4)?
9. Verify the MAC address on Host-1.
choose Host-1. Enter ipconfig /all and compare the MAC address of
the PC to that learned by the 2950-1 switch on fastethernet0/3.
