I ran across a curious occurence as I was 'playing' with ipv6 on my lab. Specifically, I noticed that, when using the 'ipv6 general-prefix' feature, deleted prefixes do not seem to disappear from 'other routers'. Example: On R1 I configured sever...

I know the whole wildcard mask odd/even matching thing has been discussed and the info is out there for the finding. But as I was digging a little deeper, I came up with a couple of questions I could not find satisfactory answers for. This is really ...

Just a curiosity. Is anyone else unable to abbreviate the 'eigrp router-id' command? Whether I'm configuring classic or named mode, I cannot abbreviate that command - even though there are literally *no* other matching commands! I should technically ...

As I understand it, VLAN pruning effectively prohibits the flooding of broadcast-type traffic (on a given VLAN) to switches without access ports in that given VLAN. so, my question is - given the topology depicted in the image I’ve included - if the ...

Can anyone point me to or tell me how the 'lifetime' works in a prefix announced via Router Advertisement? Is the default lifetime 30 days (that's what I seem to keep seeing)? Also, who (which device) tracks this (router or 'host')? What happens when...

“Since there are actually two paths, which path will the advertising router use to send the Type-5 LSA to the receiving router ?” That will depend on the metrics. In your case, it looks like both links have the same (OSPF) metrics. If that’s true,...

Its really not a matter of either-or or 'instead of'. In grossly over-simplified terms, VRF is to Layer 3 (kind-of) what VLANs are to Layer 2. VRF is there to logically divide L3 topologies - to provide a means to create multiple, autonomous routing ...

I thought I'd add a couple of points here to help clarify some things and hopefully answer some of your questions as well... "What is seed metric and default-metric? I know that If I want to redistribute EIGRP routes into ospf, I have to translate it...
