Chuck, Thanks for the useful info.
Question for you: Why does Cisco does this? Is it just to screw us, seriously? :-> If you have checked out Cisco's web site for the CCDP exam topics, IPX, AT, Windows Networking, X.25, SNA and Stratacom switches are NOT mentioned at all. But someone else who took the same exam on 12/2002 just pointed out that everything else but SNA and Stratacom switches were covered on the exam. I wonder if Cisco just published a new exam topics on their web-site. They do mention HSRP, IRB, Spanning-Tree, Vlans, BPDU's etc. etc which I don't see being covered in the CID book.?? I am confused!! All I am using in the CID book by M. Birkerner. I wonder if this will suffice.
