is that 80 local 20 non-local? with Cisco revising the number to 70 local
and 30 non-local?

I refer to Priscilla Oppenheimer's Top Down Network Design ( don't argue
design without it :-> ) pp 20-21, the CID book written by Robert Padjen, pp
26-27, and Howard Berkowitz's Designing routing and Switching Architecture
 wow! ), pages 35 and 575.

Yes by all means learn the Cisco answer for the tests. Just remember that
Cisco tests in certain respects are not particularly reflective of the real
world, as at least three eminent real world experts indicate.

The current theory is 80/20. However, to pass CCNA exam, the answer is
70/30. ;-)

much as I hate to pass this one, because every response will hit the
moderator's queue (braindump is a forbidden word), I thought this an honest
question and that you were entitled to an answer.

80/20 or 70/30 what?

are you referring to the old "80 percent of your LAN traffic should be
local, and 20 percent should be non-local" rule of good design?

I haven't seen the recent Cisco study materials, but from other reading, I
believe that current theory is that you can't go by this rule any longer.
Internet access, shared services, centralized server farms, intranets, all
have kinda blown all this local traffic versus non-local traffic percentages
by the wayside.

to transform a phrase of Brian Eno's - the one Scott McNealy probably stole.
I know I sure did - the world is now the LAN.

Chuck

Eno: the recording studio is my synthesizer ( circa 1980 )
McNealy: the network is the computer ( circa 1996 )
Me: the telco network is the central office ( circa 1990 )
