Review Question N.19

[pinguino001]

Hi Todd/all,
I've a doubt about question n.19 on page 321. The right answers for you are B,D,E.
The answer C :
"The Ethernet cable connecting to laptop directly into the router's Ethernet port must be a straight-through cable"
I think also should be correct because i tried to give copy flash tftp on my laptop connected with a straight-through cable to a SOHO 97 router (4 Eth ports, 1 Serial port and 1 port for the telephone line) and it works!
So even the answer C should be right, shouldn't it ?

Thank you very much

Marco, what you are seeing is auto-detecting ports, which is how most new equipment works....doesn't matter if you have a cross-over or straight through, should work as you describe.

I'll be clear and to the point:
Cisco's objectives do NOT cover auto-detecting ports...
