Well, this can go both ways. Again, something you should probably try to clear with Proctor. But, technically, R1 is advertising itself as RP in both cases. The only difference is - to whom? You can advertise yourself as RP to MAs or to all other Auto-RP routers. If you do the first thing, you're just an RP candidate. If you are advertising yourself to everyone else, you're both RP candidate and MA. Personally, I'd make sure that R1 is both. > Then I read the solution and it says that we can pick the MA.

I love these questions you know that :-). Especially since I get to answer them with a question... What happens in Auto-RP network if you have more than one MA "competing" for same groups? -- Marko Milivojevic - CCIE #18427 Senior Technical Instructor - IPexpert Mailto: [email protected] Telephone: +1.810.326.1444 Fax: +1.810.454.0130 Web: http://www.ipexpert.com/ _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com
