Because of the very nature of the CCIE written there is going to a huge
amount of overlap with other Cisco tests.  I just thought the question
was more CCNP-level than CCIE-level.  I suppose, though, that if you're
going for CCIE it would be good to know this.  ;-)

What if I told you I saw that question recently on my CCIE written
test......then would it still be a CCNP question??? But of course I
wouldn't
due that because of the NDA....:-)

                I think this is actually more of a CCNP troubleshooting
question.  Think
                about the type of media you're dealing with. 
Collisions
happen on media
                that allow multiple devices to speak at the same time. 
If
the media or
                topology does not allow multiple access then you cannot
have
                collisions.

                On most serial links, you are running full duplex with
only
two
                devices.  This makes it impossible to have collisions. 
They
just don't
                apply in this situation.  Heck, even in situations where
you
can run
                half-duplex serial I don't know what happens when both
stations transmit
                at the same time.  I've never personally experienced a
half-duplex
                serial link, I've just heard that they exist.

                HTH,
                John

                Can you have collisions on a serial link?   Thanks
again.
