abc,
OK... one text says that EIGRP is hybrid, the other says advanced
distance vector.. which one of us is right. I don't care about which one
of us is right, what I do care about is getting information. All I'm
saying is you could have suggested your comments without the other stuff
after all I could swear that the original post was in the form of a
question.
Anyway, maybe there's something here for all of us to learn. That's the
reason for the list isn't it....:->
Nigel..
