Switching Types [7:10569]

2001-07-01 Thread Swart Douwe
When we consider switching ie process, fast, silicon, optimum, distributed and netflow, I believe that there is a default type for each protocol. From the one book, the Cisco CIT Training guide, it says that Fast switching is the default for all protocols except IP. It says that optimum

Ethernet Encapsulation on Cisco Routers [7:10582]

2001-07-01 Thread Swart Douwe
With IPX, the default encapsulation for cisco routers is novel_ether. As there are also varying frame types and encapsulations that can be used in straight ethernet, what would be the default encapsulation on a standard Ethernet Segment connected to a cisco router? You have your ethernet frame

True Throughput on ISDN and Frame Relay [7:8445]

On a 64K dedicated ISDN line, copying a file across, we receive a throughput of around 10kbps. I assume that the fact that we are getting 10K rather than closer to 64K is due to encapsulation and latency etc etc. Is there anyway to calculate the exact throughput you should be getting on a

Im pretty sure that the colour coding may vary depending on the type of cable/adapter that you are using. Probably best to look at the pins on the adapter or connector, and try and determine it from what you have in front of you. I have seen all kinds of wierd cabling/adapters etc HTH Douwe
