RE: Help me on my CCNA Design Project [7:48715]

2002-07-15 Thread Chris Charlebois

First of all, if you feel you need routing at gigabit-speeds, you probably
need layer 3 switching.  A Cat 4000 or 6500 with an RSM would do nicely.  Of
course, if this is anything but on paper, you've probably priced yourself
out of the market.

As for the GBIC question... Are you talking about the 2 connectors on a
fiber GBIC?  If so, you need both for one connection.  One is transmit and
the over is receive and they need to cross; Tx to Rx, Rx to Tx.

Can you please past the part number of your GBIC module?

Well what is your uplink to your ISP ?
if your uplink is only ISDN 64 Kbps, it is useless to use a router that
supports gigabit interface.
