Hi Mike, > Off the subject, but if you are a major operator then you are most certainly using cisco in your core,
You might be surprised. That might have been true at one point, but probably is not now. :-) > and eigrp is standard in cisco enviroments and makes sense if it's available to you. Then it's not a standard, but a proprietary protocol. Actually, Cisco generally recommends BGP at this point and not EIGRP. > Like 802.1q and ISL - you could do 802.1q and interoperate, or just ISL and have the benefits of better across the board management and configuration flexibillity, at the cost of interoperabillity with non cisco gear. > Personally I would go with cisco for everything if I could, but last time I checked, they don't have anything I can comfortablly install and run off solar power in low temprature enviroments....
