Encapsulation is the process of adding headers and trailers to data at each layer of the OSI model as the data moves from the application layer to the physical layer. Decapsulation is the reverse process when data is received. These processes are critical in implementing network communication, ensuring the proper function of protocols, and assisting in locating faults during data transmission. They do not, however, shorten packet length​

Comprehensive Explanation: When a switch port receives an untagged frame, the port adds the default VLAN ID, known as the PVID (Port VLAN ID), to the frame. This ensures that the frame is associated with a specific VLAN before it is forwarded. The PVID represents the VLAN to which the port belongs and is used when the port receives untagged traffic. This behavior is typical for access and hybrid ports in a VLAN-enabled switch configuration.

Eth-Trunk Functionality:An Eth-Trunk interface can operate as both a Layer 2 and Layer 3 interface depending on the configuration. For example:

As a Layer 2 interface, it can aggregate Ethernet links for switching.

As a Layer 3 interface, it can aggregate links for routing​.

Correct Answer:FALSE. Eth-Trunk interfaces can function as both Layer 2 and Layer 3 interfaces.

Comprehensive Explanation: An ACL (Access Control List) is used to define rules for permitting or denying packets based on criteria such as IP addresses, protocols, or ports. However, the ACL only takes effect when it is applied to a service module, such as an interface or a firewall rule. This ensures that traffic is filtered according to the ACL rules as it passes through the device. Without being applied, the ACL rules are inactive and do not influence traffic.
