Written Tomorrow..
Group, With my written getting closer every minute, (just over 25 hours away) I am starting to get a little nervous. Any last minute suggestions from others who have gone before me? Any tribal chants I should try? I am confident in my studies but this is the "big one".

Thanx, passed the written
Hey group, Just wanted to drop a quick thank you for all your help over the passed several months. I have gone from a CCNA all the way to the CCIE written. It's been quite a journey, and the fun has just begun. All the comments seen before in regards to the test are very accurate. It's actually more straightforward than I anticipated. Keep your focus, believe in yourself, and know you can accomplish anything you want to. There is no mystery to the CCIE, it takes dedication, determination, ambition, and a whole lot of hard work, (maybe a little bit of luck :))!!

RE: Ethernet switching
These are my thoughts, If the switch was right out of the box, the stations could ping each other no matter what subnet mask you were using. The reason being, they are located in the same broadcast domain, vlan1. This is the default vlan for all switched ports at this time. The first station would arp for the other, it would get a response because they are on the same layer 2 broadcast domain and they could speak directly using the switch. Switches by default with no mls, are layer two devices. They have no concept of IP. They make decision based on layer 2 MAC addresses and the ports they are connected to. If these stations were in different vlans, the situation would change. You then have created two broadcast domains and in order for the devices to talk, a router or mls entry would be needed. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. -Original Message- From: Fowler, Joey To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 1/31/01 10:52 AM Subject: RE: Ethernet switching Depends on the subnet mask you are using, for instance 142.102.3.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 142.102.2.1 also with a subnet of 255.255.0.0 The 2.1 and 3.1 would be on the same subnet, however if you have a different subnet mask I don't think it would work.

You assign address, for example, 142.102.2.1 to the first one and 142.102.3.1 to the second one.There is not any router in this small network.142.102.2.1 tries to ping 142.102.3.1.The question is: will 142.102.2.1 get a reply and why?

When we talk about "default" encapsulation, are we talking about an actual command? The "encapsulation" command can be entered in Ethernet interface mode, I think. (I'm not near a router now.) The only times I ever change the encapsulation is with the ipx network encap command. Thanks for the interesting conversation.

PIM and IPX---Off Topic
I don't have a lot of information on this problem but I thought I would throw it out there and see if anyone has run into this before. A client is running a multicast application for several of its sites. The multicast server is located in MA and they are running PIM-SM to NY and SF. The problem is on the WAN link to NY, the client machines are receiving errors that indicate lost packets. My question is: Has anyone run into a problem running IPX and IP multicast over the same network? I know this is strange but when they shut down IPX the machines stop generating errors. When they turn IPX back on the errors seem to come back..??? They are running CGMP on the switches in NY. I apologize for the lack of detail but I am not directly working on this, just trying to help out. I was just wondering if anyone has ever heard of this before?

RE: CID help
I have to agree.
