Re: Switching question [7:16284]
The ISP will screw you down to one IP address so you will have to NAT that adress to 2 or more different addresses using a router. Regards, Phil. --- newbie newbie wrote: Hello all.

Re: Switching question. [7:32]
Darryn, Please refer to the link below: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/lan-switch-cisco.shtml The answer to your question is there. Good luck. From: "Darryn Levitt" Reply-To: "Darryn Levitt" To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Switching question. [7:32] Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2001 03:35:42 -0400 Can someone please help me with the following question? On page 90 of Todd Lammle's CCNA study guide, it asks the question: What is used to determine the designated port on a bridge? A. Priority B. Cost of the links attached to the switch C. MAC Address D. IP Address According to the answer at the end of the chapter, is says the answer is B. For switches to determine the designated ports, the cost of the links attached to each switch is used. But on page 84, it reads: To determine the designated ports on the switches, the bridge ID is used. On page 80 it reads: The bridge ID is 8 bytes long and includes the priority and the MAC address of the device. So , as far as I can see, the answer should be A. Or does it mean that when determining the designated port, you must first look at the cost to the root bridge, and then at the bridge ID? Am I missing something here?

Re: Switching question. [7:32]
Wow- I would say MAC if we were talking VLAN's (to from port decisions), but I'm guessing the "Cost Of The Attached Link," must be driving you toward a protocol answer. I didn't think STP worked exactly in this way (maybe I need to refresh). Anywho- don't spend your morning on this question. It's a brain teaser @ best. Bits data will continue to pass whether you know this or not. The question is way too specific up for grabs (IMHO) to be a test question, but I will research it too :o) Phil - Original Message - From: Dropped Packet To: Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2001 4:33 AM Subject: Re: Switching question.

Re: Switching Question
Please be aware (even though I am in my Christmas drinks) the not all switches behave the same. Some switch ports will only handle one (1) MAC address. These will only ever talk to the first port that comes up on them. Merry Christmas and or festive season to all.

If no port security is set, it learns the additional MACs. If you have a 'network port' unknown MACs are sent there. Else packets with strange MACs are flooded.
