I've been running into Pine Mountain Group for many years and slightly know the founder Bill Alderson. They do good work and they do know their stuff. I doubt they actually made this mistake, but if they did, then it's just a mistake of overgeneralizing. Perhaps they only have 2 categories, broadcast and unicast, and don't consider multicasts. I know I'm normally the one to get all outraged by stupid mistakes, but until we can actually see a URL that points to a mistake made by Pine Mountain Group, we should reserve judgement. I can't find anything on their Web site that says that BPDUs, CDP, or HSRP hellos go to a broadcast rather than a multicast. In fact, I can't find anything on their site at all that doesn't require a login! ;-) Priscilla >I don't want to be mean and harsh.
