From the FAQ on this site:
802.1Q encapsulation is now available on the built-in 10BaseT Ethernet interfaces of the Cisco 2610, 2611, and 2612 with Cisco IOS software 12.2(2)T and subsequent releases.
Whoa! Does this apply to the CCNA exam?
If I get question which types of interfaces support qtag/router-on-a-stick, I should now include 10BaseT?

Quiet you! At last my dream of a fully converged network with a single AUI-port 2500 at its core will become reality!
Now, if I could only find a one of those cheesy AUI->10BaseT adapters the world will be mine. -

You're using the term converged incorrectly, converged network typically refer to data&voice running together, dot1q doesn't imply this, another meaning refers to a network where all nodes can reach one another, again dot1q is not required for this.
Also, as the link above talks about; the 10BaseT with dot1q support only apply to certain 2600 and 3600 routers, there is no way at all to do dot1q on a 2500 series router.creamy_stew wrote:Now, if I could only find a one of those cheesy AUI->10BaseT adapters the world will be mine.

Layer 2 or layer 3? I'm using MST for multiple 10Gig switchports and OSPF equal-cost multipathing for multiple 10Gig routed ports, I found in either case, it works much better than etherchannel.Jack of all trades, master of none -

The "party line" back in the old Cisco CCNA Network Academy courseware was that you needed at least a 100Mb Ethernet Interface to support 802.1q.
The IOS change for the 261x 10mb interface was a "nice exception" for those of us building cheap home labs.
The other exception is that the 1720 doesn't support 802.1q (or support router on a stick) on it's 100Mb Ethernet interface.
Unless someone has seen something more official recently, I'd stick with the "old" rule.:mike: Cisco Certifications -- Collect the Entire Set! -

Layer 2. The individual links are actually fairly close in their load distribution, but it wouldn't matter much in this case as the utilization is below 5%. I plan on MST in the future, but I've got a ton of higher priority projects to worry about. The Spanning Tree implementation needs a complete overhaul, but it is not in a "critical" state so it will have to wait....
