You'd get a link but lots of collisions, eh? The half-duplex side would receive while it was sending, because the full-duplex side would send whenever it wanted. In other words, the 2500 side would report collisions, assuming there was enough simultanesous traffic. I think the best answer is that the 2500 routers pre-date the full-duplex standard. I bet they don't do full-duplex. > > seriously, I believe all routers in the 25xx line are 10/half. > > there is no report on speed and duplex on routers that I can > find. That's annoying. I guess show run would show you a non-default setting, but that's not too helpful.
