I like your community spirit.

Are you a member of the NANOG community because:

a) You want to educate yourself
b) You want to educate others
c) You want to participate in flame wars
d) You want to read flame wars
e) You want to denigrate those seeking to educate themselves or others

You cant have your cake and eat it too.

Thanks but no thanks, I am going to avoid the pissing contest.

Joe

Does anyone have a best practice list of things to
disable/filter/turn off on ethernet ports l2 connected to
other AS's

cdp
stp
switchport negotiate
vtp
if trunking, limit vlans, no vlan1

So on so forth.

Switches do so many darn things all by themselves, as any
packet capture shows.

Thanks,

Joe
