hi to all,
I have started preparing for CCNA and got many doubts will reading ... few are....
1. Say Two routers connect each other with a ethernet interface
At one router , i have enable rip , network 172.16.20.0
another one , i have enable igrp 100, network 172.16.20.0
Will the routing take place?
what is the 100(autonomous no) mean in igrp
2. What is auto config IP means(169.x.x.x)
I found that if there is no DHCP server or a static address set on an adapter , the adapter provides the auto config IP address
Does it mean that the adapter works fine?
If i connect two computer with a cross-over cable and each of them gets an auto config IP address - will it able to ping the other computer with the auto config IP address? i dont think so
In this case - i feel the whole 169 subnet is wasted.Isn't it?
3. What is 1394 NET adapter that gets loaded in WinXP? i found that it's something to do with firewire - but is it physical connector found on the back of the computer?
4. WAN MIN port - Gets installed when we install a Network adapter? what does this mean?( i seached on the web - but didn't understand)

1. Say Two routers connect each other with a ethernet interface
Two routers can be connected VIA Ethernet, if directly to each other, cross over cable would be needed.

If I understand this correctly, interface on Router 1 = 172.16.20.x, and Router 2 = 172.16.20.x, and are directly connected, same network (depending on mask used, ((not given)) ) no routing. Routing would take place between interfaces on the same router differnt networks, example, Router 1 Ethernet Interface 127.16.20.x/16, and between Router 1, Serial Interface 192.168.1.x/24.
I will make myself more clear -
Interface e0 of router1 and interface e1 on router 2 are connected to each other.
e0 - 172.16.20.1 / 24
e1 - 172.16.20.2 / 24
router 1
#config terminal
# router rip
#network 172.16.20.0
router2
#config terminal
# router igrp
# network 172.16.20.0 100
what will happen now ? will the routing tables gets updated on both the routers?

100 would be the routing process ID#

Most NIC’s are setup for Autoconfig, meaning if no static IP entered, or no DHCP server found, the NIC will auto configure with a 169.254.x.x address. Basically if two or more machines are connected together in a network, they should be able to communicate with each other. The chance of two machines getting the same address are slim.

1394 indicates a Firewire port/adapter
