I have to get past Wide area network subject firstly to get past all problems before getting ready for the CCNA exam. I expect to get some help from you about it. Until Wide area network , especially on routing chapter, i knew that we had packets to transmit them to remote networks. Normally, we were doing it by using routers. In other words, every event came into play at third layer of OSI.

However, in this chapter related to WAN, we are all dealing with first and second layers not third. This seems
weird as i mentioned above.

Could you tell me a little bit just the mentality for clear ?

Personally m8, I think you're asking a bit much given your previous posts !

 

you can't be real

 

No you can't do that to me. I follow the answers you have given to me all time. I do not
tell lies.

 

The OSI model is just that, a *model*, it does not explain how things really work electronically. it is a guide and is worth knowing but there are many occations where you will find things dont quite fit.

 

Fair points, all.

I am, probably, less tolerant these days as I seem to reside in Grumpy Old Man territory !

I'd have no problem helping you more Kobem if you appeared to take note of what people said to you and at least tried to get to grips with the language. As Arroryn has said, maybe you would be better to find a forum in your native language - I wish you well with that.

 

What is important regarding routers is that they operate at the bottom three layers of the OSI model and not just layer 3. Similarly, switches operate at both layer 1 and 2.

 

tried that Ken apparently they don't sell basic networking books in Turkey.

Kobem a WAN is a network that covers a wide area like the lots places a LAN is a network that covers a local area like an office

I'm from down those thar there Wessern parts and 'earin' wha you sed makes me angry. I's is 35 and therefore not a "grumpy old man" as your puts it. I's a Grumpy, yet spritely, erm... man.


hmm... Luton's looking like it was a good move.

By "territory" I meant "agegroup" rather than geographic location

 

Actually, she can.

Actually, you haven't.

I wouldn't know if you do or not. In any case, that's irrelevant. You don't follow the advice that we give, and you often don't answer the questions we ask - you either let the threads die without a response or you've simply forgotten they're there. So why should anyone continue to give you MORE advice?

 

Kobem - you also have a really irritating habit of editing your original posts so that the answers/responses don't make sense.

If you need to clarify something, put it in a new post, don't just edit the original one.

It's driving me bonkers...
