Love the 6500 .. I think some of these banks might ask you a lot
on multicast as well. If you attend a little of security interviews you
might also get question about your experience of having worked financial
related protocols.
Shouldn't this question be combined and redundant? Shared seems to be
different meaning altogether.
What is the different between shared and redundant power in the 6509-E
chassis?
Also I guess this doesn't really involve any "CCIE" questions, these
questions are more practical in nature and that's why Cisco needs to get a
Datacentre CCIE out.. but I guess it would be too expensive for them to
build these labs.
