Enterprise Core ENCOR 350-401 book errors and doubts

giuseppepratola

Level 1

I am reading the new book, I would like to bring here doubts, errors or a simple exchange of ideas,

I start with the first error found

CHAPTER 2 SPT

page 43: The logic to calculate which ports should be blocked between two non-root switches is as
follows:


1. The interface is a designated port and must not be considered an RP.
2. The switch with the lower path cost to the root bridge forwards packets, and the one
with the higher path cost blocks. If they tie, they move on to the next step.
3. The system priority of the local switch is compared to the system priority of the
remote switch. The local port is moved to a blocking state if the remote system priority
is lower than that of the local switch. If they tie, they move on to the next step.
4. The system MAC address of the local switch is compared to the system priority of the
remote switch. The local designated port is moved to a blocking state if the remote
system MAC address is lower than that of the local switch. If the links are connected
to the same switch, they move on to the next step.


STEP 4 contains an error:

"The system MAC address of the local switch is compared to the system priority of the remote switch"

It should not be "The system MAC address of the local switch is compared to the system MAC address of the remote switch"

Figure 2-4 Convergence with Direct Link Failure Between SW1 and SW2

 

Phase 1. SW1 detects a link failure on its Gi1/0/1 interface. SW2 detects a link failure on
its Gi1/0/3 interface.
Phase 2. Normally SW1 would generate a TCN flag out its root port, but it is the root
bridge, so it does not. SW1 would advertise a TCN if it were not the root
bridge.


SW2 removes its best BPDU received from SW1 on its Gi1/0/1 interface
because it is now in a down state. At this point, SW2 would attempt to send a
TCN toward the root switch to notify it of a topology change; however, its root
port is down.
Phase 3. SW1 advertises a configuration BPDU with the Topology Change flag out of all
its ports. This BPDU is then received and relayed to SW3. SW3 cannot relay this
to SW2 as its Gi1/0/2 port is still in a blocking state.
SW2 assumes that it is now the root bridge and advertises configuration BPDUs
with itself as the root bridge.
Phase 4. SW3 receives the configuration BPDU with the Topology Change flag from
SW1. SW3 reduces the MAC address age timer to the forward delay timer to
flush out older MAC entries. SW3 receives SW2’s inferior BPDUs and discards
them as it is still receiving superior BPDUs from SW1.

 

It should be :  Phase 1. SW1 detects a link failure on its Gi1/0/2 interface. SW2 detects a link failure on
its Gi1/0/1 interface.

Hi

 

I found an error in Python code on Cisco Certified DevNet Associate DEVASC 200-901

 

Where I can submit this so that they could fix it?
