When policing or shaping, is the average rate variable akin to frame relay's CIR? That's the way it seems to me, but i still get confused by some of the terminology.Also, why does policing use bytes for the burst and excess while shaping uses bits?
mode access is usually for end devices attached to the port. there's no reason really to trunk unless you are connecting another switch or a vlan-routing router to that port. the port-security command only allows that specific mac-address to connect ...
not that I know of. If we're talking a new device, you could use 802.1X or mac-security on the switch port. As for devices already on the vlan, use an OS that can lock out users from the network settings.As for the affect, it would be gradual unless ...
guess I'm wrong, That's what i get for not double-checking something. the RFC says "There are four possible types of paths used to route traffic to the destination, listed here in decreasing order of preference: intra-area, inter-area, ...
what are the port counters showing? Any other config differences between the two ports?Did the mac address age out?what sup? Could there be congestion on 6's backplane access?
no, LSA type isn't figured in. Assumig prefix length is the same, only cost matters. alter the metric at the redistribution point to setup which one you want to be preferred.
