Guys, I am studying about TokenRing, RIFs, etc, and I have a question. Let's get Rossi's paper, per example, using the ilustration o question 20.
Host A - Ring 25 - Bridge 11 - VRing 10 - Bridge 14 - Ring 35 - Host B Assuming that Host A is sending a packet to Host B, the RIF should look something like this: 0630.019b.00ae.0230 That's okay, already got it. However, there is a question after that asking if Host B was to send a packt to Host A, how would the RD field look like. It's said to be: 019b.00ae.0230 which I agree that is right, if we consider the previous question. This is because Host A searched for Host B before Host B searched Host A. My question is, does Host B keep this RIF for Host A always? What if Host B has already a RIF with RD 023e.00ab.0190 ? Which one would it use? What if I have both alternatives (hypothetically) on a CCIE test? Maybe I am missing something.... :) Regards, Persio Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=42655&t=42655 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
