DTP Dynamic Trunking Protocol
Trunk negotiation is managed by the Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP), which is a Cisco proprietary Point-to-Point Protocol.
These various modes are configured using the switchport mode interface command
Switch trunk interfaces support different trunking modes.

Access
Dynamic desirable (default mode on Catalyst 2950 and 3550)
Dynamic auto
Trunk
Non-negotiate
dotq-tunnel (Not an option on the Catalyst 2950.)

CSMA/CD – Only used with half-duplex (hubs).
Full-duplex switches do not use CSMA/CD.
Ethernet signals are sent to every host in the LAN.
Carrier Sense: 
All devices must listen before transmitting.
If signal detected (CS), wait before transmitting.
If no tfc detected, can transmit.
While transmitting – must listen for collisions.

The Hierarchical Network Model: 
CCNA focuses on networks for SMBs (small, medium businesses).
A hierarchical design model is recommended.
Easier to manage and expand.
Problems are solved more quickly.
Hierarchical design divides the network into 3 layers.
Core, (CL).
Distribrution, (DL).
Access, (AL). 
Each layer provides specific functions.
This “modularity” facilitates scalability and performance.
Access Layer, (AL): lowest

INTERVLAN ROUTING
A VLAN is a broadcast domain and unique ip subnet
Switches operate at layer2 (Data link Layer)
VLANS cannot communicate without L3 (Network Layer)
The L3 communication is called inter-vlan routing
Inter-vlan routing is a process of forwarding network traffic from one vlan to another using a router

Trunking is Point to point link from a switch to a router or a switch. A trunk link can carry traffic from multiple vlans over a single link allowing vlans to span internetworks.
