two questions...thx in advance! 1. is the "source-bridge transparent" command required on the token ring router when one dlsw peer is ethernet only & the other dlsw peer is token ring only (i.e., bet/ r1-e1 & r2-to1)?
2. why is the virtual ring (500) required on the ethernet router in the config below? finally, i understand that in the following config, the "source-bridge transparent" command is required bec/ ethernet & token ring is off the same router !ethernet router: source-bridge ring-group 500 dlsw local-peer peer-id 1.1.1.1 dlsw remote-peer 0 tcp 2.2.2.2 lf 1500 dlsw bridge-group 5 bridge-group 5 protocol ieee ! int e0 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 bridge-group 5 !ethernet/token ring router: source-bridge ring-group 500 source-bridge transparent 500 1000 1 5 dlsw local-peer peer-id 2.2.2.2 dlsw remote-peer 0 tcp 1.1.1.1 lf 1500 dlsw bridge-group 5 bridge-group 5 protocol ieee ! int e1/2 ip address 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.0 bridge-group 5 ! int to0 ring-speed 16 source-bridge 7 1 500 source-bridge spanning Timur Mirza Principal Network Engineer Network Planning & Engineering, West Region 15505-B Sand Canyon Avenue Irvine, California 92618 Verizon Wireless 949.286.6623 (o) 949.697.7964 (c) Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=46896&t=46896 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
