No because you do not need a routing protocol to run cdp.  cdp runs at the
data-link layer and learns about other cisco devices running cdp as
neighbors on the same wan or lan segment with multicasting.

Can you use rip to route cdp. Why?

this is a common misconception.  A routing protocol is a protocol like
eigrp, igrp, is-is,ospf, etc.  A routed protocol is like ipx/spx, tcp/ip,
vines, decnet, etc.  A routed protocol must have a layer 3 address so
netbios or cdp cannot be routed by themselves.

Couple issues there wilson.
First the csu-dsu issue, someone is spoofing my e-mail address check the
header it says SR not JR.
Second my response was to mohamed not parky, I thought his definition was a
little off. Also I thought the response should have made the person
(Mohamed) think, not just recite the cisco routED routING line.
Let me reinterate the question

>>Ask yourself can a router route without a protocol.
Maybe you can trace a packet from the time it leaves the source and arrives
at the destination for us Wilson.

I did think it was a good question to ask someone who answered Parky's
question with that response.

Although I didn't answer the csu/dsu question I don't mind someone using my
e-mail address cause if they told them to get a book that is a good answer.
Lets get a roll call of all you CCIE's that didn't do their own research.
