He says "necessary" when he means "sufficient." You may have to consider that substitution on the actual test questions.

Fuck you Pintsize. Math tastes like electricity...oh you are a robot.

Oh wait, that's not Pintsize. Pintsize has the potential to have HUGE THUMBS.
I've had insufficient sleep.

I could be wrong, but wasn't with the ratification of the 100Mb/s standard that the 4 byte VLAN tag was added to the Ethernet frame? I know, unrelated, that Jumbo Frames only exist at 1Gb/s and higher, but I seemed to recall something about VLANs as well ( ... )

I didn't take it to learn anything, I just needed it for work.

If you want some Cisco junk to play with, I've got a nice emulator if you just want to play. Email me if you're interested.

I have no idea when VLANs became part of the standard. I know we were doing it on 100M links in class.

Damn, I wish my Microsoft books were half as amusing.

OSPF can be ok if you're running it over a small segment (to make a poor-man's hardware failover, for instance).

I'm unclear on why voice VLANs are different from VLANs. I mean, yeah, all your Cisco gear can auto-negotiate it without you configuring it (ahem), but so what?
