S1 to R1: Straight-through, R2 to R3 (underground): Fiber Optic, R1 to R2: Crossover, S3 to Server0: Straight-through. These follow Cisco standard wiring rules-straight-through for switch-to-router/server, crossover for router-to-router. Pretty sure that's it but let me know if you spot something off.
S1 to R1: Straight-through, R2 to R3 via conduit: Fiber, R1 to R2: Crossover, S3 to Server0: Straight-through. Usually folks mix up crossover and straight-through here.
Switch S1 to Router R1: Straight-through UTP, R2 to R3 (underground): Fiber Optic, R1 to R2: Crossover UTP, S3 to Server0: Straight-through UTP. That's standard cabling logic for these setups, I think-unless they're hinting at something tricky. Agree?
Connects Switch S1 to Router R1: Straight-through UTP, R2 to R3 via underground: Fiber Optic, R1 to R2: Crossover UTP, Switch S3 to Server0: Straight-through UTP. This matches standard cabling practice, pretty sure this is right. Anyone else seeing different pairings?
Switch S1 to Router R1 = Straight-through UTP, Router R2 to R3 via underground = Fiber Optic, Router R1 to R2 = Crossover UTP, Switch S3 to Server0 = Straight-through UTP. That's the usual setup for these devices, but if anyone thinks there's a twist here let me know. Not 100% if they're trying to trip us up with device types.
Connects Switch S1 to Router R1: Straight-through UTP, Router R2 to R3 (underground): Fiber Optic, Router R1 to R2: Crossover UTP, Switch S3 to Server0: Straight-through UTP. I don't think crossover would be used anywhere else, sometimes folks mix up straight-through/crossover here.
If any port was actually an uplink with auto MDI/MDI-X, then a straight-through could work even for router-to-router, but since this is exam-style, I'd keep it classic: Switch S1 to Router R1 = Straight-through, R2 to R3 (underground) = Fiber Optic, R1 to R2 = Crossover, S3 to Server0 = Straight-through. Makes sense?
