Hi All,

  I was working through ospfv2 experience with the BB routers connectivity
in the real lab.During that course ,one of the question arised to me
is,during the real lab if the switchport(assuming it is connected to a
switchport in the switch rather than directly connected to another router)
connected to BB router negotaited to 10 mbps *half-duplex* by default*,* and
layer 3 stuff like routing protocol updates,BGP peering(also getting
upates) works fine and even ping to the BB router ip address works without
any drop,In that case,is it recommended to attempt to make it as full-duplex
or leave as it is.In real life ,normally we make it as full-duplex to avoid
collisions/drop packets but assuming its CCIE lab do we have to look into
this perspective.

Kindly let me know your suggestion and thoughts.

Thanks for the great assistance
