Thanks Adam, Priscilla, Karen, Don and others who gave me input on this.
It's nice to know that I've not gone completely mad (yet), so I'll continue
my journey through the rest of the book.
Have a great weekend,
Ole

Subject: RE: TEI & SAPI
Ole,
Both you and Priscilla are correct. The TEI and SAPI are part
of the layer two addressing for LAPD. This means that for question
14 (Chapter 7, page 247) the correct answer is B. Good catch on your
part. Sorry to have taken you off track.
I had just recently identified this error as part of the corrections
for the second printing of the book. I am working to get a list of
errata ready for publication on the ccprep website. When the information
goes up, I will post the URL to GroupStudy.
I appreciate the discussion and feedback here and welcome any other
comments or questions you have as you work your way through.
Glad the book is working out for you despite the error. Hope it continues
to prove helpful.
