For EIGRP (Pre 12.x where you can use the wildcard mask), you should passive out any interfaces you're not running EIGRP/IGRP/RIP. But in OSPF, you can specify which interfaces should run OSPF. So I would not passive them out. hsb Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=24902&t=24902 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
