You'll never see collisions on a full duplex link if there is a duplex mismatch. What you will see on the side that is set for full duplex are CRC's, undersized packets, fragments etc. that are the result of malformed packets being on the network as the other side stops transmitting when it senses a collision. Remember in this scenario the other side is set for half duplex.

Lets take just one port of a switch or one collision domain since that's what switches do. If we run 10 or 100 Half Duplex to a switch ... Is there a chance of a collision occuring? If we then run 10 or 100 Full Duplex to a switch ... Is there a chance of a collision occuring, besides late collisions, etc. Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=48897&t=48830 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
