Cabling...

I know it is not the right newsgroup but please...
....an urgent answer...
the cable (UTP CAT5) between Router and Switch must be Streight or Cross?

All cable in a LAN must be Streight, isn't it?

Thanks

Bye

All straight-through.

X-over is only needed for hub/switch -> hub/switch or node -> node.

even then many switches are auto-switching now on the ports.
