POP quiz! What was/is the largest production network (in number of end nodes) that used/uses RIP as the IGP? What was/is the largest production network (in number of end nodes) that used/uses static routing as the IGP? ---------------------------------------------------------
That was last month's issue. I chuckled too. But, for a small end-point LAN, it's not bad. Consider it appropriate tech, applied in appropriate places. Even fully static routes aren't bad, on small enough networks.-----Original Message----- From: John M .

I almost fell down on that. Oh, wait, I do know a couple of exchange points that wanted to or are running RIP. No REALLY!! jmbrown
