I noticed that too
(R1)-----------(SW1)----------(R2)
the topology shows that R1 and R2 are directly connected to SW1, but infact physically its not (based on the cabling posted by IE).
does that make any difference??
no it doesn't! i practiced the same lab on real rack from IE, and i practiced the same lab on Dynamips, i did not see any difference what so ever.
it does not matter how is the physical cabling is, what is matter is how to modify the topology to meet the requirements without touching the cables, sure thing one of the solution to accomplish this will be via the use of VLANs.
my 2cents
