Thanks Drew, John and Tim! That has been great. Sorry for the simple questions, but I have not had access to a lab before, and have just got a new job where I will have, so I am trying to increase my conceptual knowledge to more physical hands-on knowledge. I am really looking forward to getting to have a play (in a non-production environment!) without the threat of bringing anything important down.
The routers I have worked with in my previous job pretty much involved telnet and that was it. Thanks heaps again! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Drew - Home" To: "Sam Deckert" Sent: Friday, October 26, 2001 3:28 AM Subject: Re: DTE/DCE explanation please [7:24071] > > > > So, a special db60-db60 cable can be used for back-to-back connections, > and > > will work as long as one router is set to be the DCE and provide a > > clockrate. > > Correct. > > > Does this cable have any special pinouts or anything? > > It is DCE on one end and DTE on the other. > > > Is there > > a diagram somewhere?
