These are my study notes for CCDE based on “CCIE Routing and Switching v5.0 Official Cert Guide, Volume 1, Fifth Edition” and “Designing Cisco Network Service Architectures (ARCH) Foundation Learning Guide: (CCDP ARCH 642-874), Third Edition“, “INE – Understanding MSTP”
STP session up @ CLN
Hi, I’m done with the two Spanning Tree Protocol webinars at the Cisco Learning Network. You can find them here. They are located under the Routing&Switching section. Now on to CCDE studies!
