I agree!  I am confused on the issue.  I ordered the GBIC-SX for the 6509 
but was worried about the difference between it and the WS-X5484.  What is 
the difference??  I can't find any information saying concretely that 
there is a difference.

on a completely different topic, are the GBIC-SX and the WS-X5484 
different
names for the same identical piece of equipment?
If so, where on CCO does it say so? If not, then why not use a single part
number?

I ask because there seems to be a difference of opinion, with some folks 
at
Cisco saying absolutely they are different and not interchangeable, and 
some
folks not at Cisco, but with beau coup field experience saying there is no
difference whatsoever and the parts are exchangeable problem free.

just wondering where a guy goes to get The Truth ;-

 Hi,

 I know that this may have come up many times.  But since I'm about to
start
 preparing for the CCIE lab, it would be great if anyone could give me 
some
 suggestions on this. I'm planning to continue to build up my lab.

 Currently, I have the following:

 2 x 1603R

 3 x 2501

 2 x 2503

 2 x 2511

 1 x Cat 5000

 I'm thinking whether I should get the below:-

 2 x Token routers - maybe 2 x 2502?? MAU?? What else do I need for 
Token??
I
 really don't know what else I need...

 1 x Frame switch - 

 1 x ISDN Simulator (do u know which one is good?)

 And I probably need to upgrade RAM / Flash on my routers... since most 
of
 them only had 4MB Flash on the moment...

 Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

 Thanks

Have a look at the link from Cisco. They will be removing Token Ring and the
3920 Switch and replacing the 5500's with 3550's which can do layer 3 and
other new advanced features.

2002-06-13 Thread Dennis Laganiere

There's a couple of threads running about it right now on the group.
Basically Cisco has announced Token Ring, IPX and a few other things are
gone from the lab in October.  Like I say, review some of the other current
threads and you'll see more detail...

2002-06-13 Thread Byron Bean

from CCO:

Lab Exam Content and Equipment Changes

CCIE candidates should note changes to the technical content and equipment 
in the lab exam. Effective October 1st, 2002, candidates will no longer be 
tested in the areas of IGRP, Token Ring, Token Ring Switching, or IPX. Note: 
DLSW+ will remain as a protocol that can be tested in the lab. The Catalyst 
5500 switch will be replaced with the Catalyst 3550.

If you are going to be doing that LAB after Oct 1, then heed the news that
Cisco has posted and don't bother with the TR as it will be gone from the
LAB altogether.  And so will the Cat5000 that you have.
Instead sell the Catalyst and with the money you would've spent on the TR
routers, and the money from the Catalyst 5K, buy a 3550 switch (which will
be in the LAB after Oct 1), and maybe tyhe ISDN and a router to use as a
Frame Switch like you mentioned.

Take it for what it's worth.  If you are going to do your LAB before then,
then justy continue on

Good Luck!
