If you're taking the CCIE written exam in order to make yourself more marketable, then you're taking it for the wrong reason. > Say if i never appear for the LAB, for any reason, would the written exam be > any worth of mention, like say on my resume or as a credential. In what manner would you mention this on your resume? Under a list of other certifications you've attained? Passing the CCIE written exam does not earn you a certification, so this would be inappropriate. Let's be brutally honest here: the reason people are tempted to put "CCIE Written" on their resume is so that their resume pops up whenever a headhunter or hiring manager does a search for the term "CCIE." Since passing the CCIE written exam is not an official indicator of any tangible talent for installing and programming Cisco routers and switches, listing "CCIE Written" on one's resume is tantamount to deceiving the headhunter (and yourself!). If you're going to put "CCIE Written" on your resume, you may as well also put a PhD in Computer Science from MIT - hey, if you're going to pull the wool over someone's eyes, why not go all the way? ;-) The CCIE certification exists in order to recognize those who have *proven* their expert-level skills. Putting "CCIE Written" on one's resume cheapens the certification and minimizes the inherent benefits of achieving it. Say it once, say it twice, say it a thousand times: passing the CCIE written exam is not a certification and should not be indicated on one's resume. (Again, sorry to be so dogmatic about this, but it's one of my hot buttons. Pancakes are another one, so let's not even go there.)

Re: Frame Relay Definition [7:57439]
Good timing - we just had this conversation a couple of weeks ago. :-) There's a difference between a protocol being "connection-oriented" and it being "reliable." The two are not related. Frame Relay is "connection-oriented" in that it establishes a connection between endpoints *before* any data is sent. However, Frame Relay is "unreliable" in that it does not perform any checks to make sure that every frame sent is received by the other end. Frame Relay relies on upper-layer protocols (eg TCP) to perform this function.

"Classification" vs. "Marking" [7:56792]
Hey Proximo - I'm sitting here looking over the outline of the DQOS test, and one of the bullets says to "Explain the difference between classification and marking." I'm looking over the QoS Config Guide, and can't seem to find any clear distinction between the two - the Guide seems to be using the terms interchangeably. Anyone have any insight into this?

> Just about the last phrase 'The "priority" > command is not used with CBWFQ', > considering that I call LLQ within CBWFQ, is > it correct ? Well...you calling it "LLQ within CBWFQ" isn't Cisco canon, but your config below is a fine LLQ configuration. I've noticed (especially in my studies of QoS) that the only differentiator between acronym-based technologies (like LLQ and CBWFQ) is just the addition of one little command in an otherwise "old" config.

Keep in mind the "evolution" of queuing mechanisms: after WFQ came CBWFQ and PQ simultaneously (I think - someone correct my history if I'm mistaken). PQ is *too* strict, and not granular enough. CBWFQ is too loose, and cannot guarantee that a certain type of traffic will *always* get through. Enter IP RTP Priority, which states that RTP packets (usually voice) will *always* go through, and any other traffic type will be handled in a WFQ fashion. LLQ opens up the possibility of giving priority to other traffic types (not necessarily voice traffic), and then handling everything else in a bandwidth-based WFQ fashion. > (2) is it once again, a case of one queue > having a higher weight which means > more data gets sent, (but not all data), at > each pass.

You can put the same configuration (ip address and interface-dlci) on the major interface. The physical interface will then default to being a point-to-point link.

RE: VoIP Clarification. [7:55682]
This all makes a lot of sense, but I have one remaining nit-picky issue. Going back to the original example of the remote user: when the user is in the office, they are connected to the network via their Ethernet port which certainly has a MAC address. However, when they're dialed in from home, they might be using a modem which certainly does not have a MAC address. Is the H.323 application (whatever it may be, SoftPhone or whatever) smart enough to send the Ethernet port's MAC address even though it's not being used in a dial-in situation? If not, how does CallManager learn the user's MAC address? Thanks, BJ On Thu, 17 Oct 2002 11:20:39 GMT Vitaliy Vishnevskiy wrote: > Yes, call manager cares a great deal about mac > addresses.

Re: VoIP Clarification. [7:55682]
Hi Vance - I too am studying All Things VoIP, and I'm curious how this would work. Say you have User A trying to call User B. User B is currently in the office. So User A dials '' which is User B's phone number (or "route pattern" if you want to be specific). CallManager picks up the route pattern, looks up User B's location, and forwards the call on. All is good. Now, say User B is telecommuting. How does CallManager know this? How does your RAS (remote access) server notify CM that User B's geographical location has moved? Is there something in User B's RAS (Registration, Admission and Status) setup that alerts CM to the fact that they're dialing in from home?

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]
Well, I tend to look at things from a "global" or "Layer 1 through 7" perspective: does Frame Relay perform the same functions that TCP does? In other words, does it perform a check to make sure every single IP packet (or Frame Relay frame) makes it from the ingress point of the Frame cloud to the egress point? I don't believe it does, and therefore I consider it connectionless. Now, from a *test* perspective (g...), I suppose the "correct" answer is "connection-oriented" due to the reasons that Peter specified.

Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-oriented? [7:54706]
Dear Silent Bob: Okay lunchbox, my co-workers and I are trying to figure out if Frame Relay is connectionless or connection-oriented. A lot of documentation I'm reading says it *is*, but somewhere in the chasms of my memory banks I can't help but think that it is *not*, because a) it would be redundant given TCP's function and b) it would add latency to the Frame cloud, which is supposedly optimized for speed (one of the improvements Frame made to X.25). Am I right, or have I been hitting the pipe a little too hard lately?

Fast Switching confusion [7:54421]
Dear Joel - I read in the "Switching Services Configuration Guide," page XC-15, that "Fast switching is not supported on serial interfaces using encapsulations other than HDLC."

JohnZ was correct in his original post, that his list of subnets can be summarized 191.72.0.0/19, and Chuck's addendum (that he'll also be summarizing additional subnets other than the ones he mentioned) is also true.

*Really* easy ISDN problem [7:54276]
My Dearest Superman - I'm having what should be an easily-solvable problem with ISDN. I have a feeling the problem is with the mapping, but Caslow talks about a "dynamic mapping" function provided by PPP. I don't see it happening. Here's the gist of it: Goal: Have R2 (12.1(5)) be the dialer to R3 (12.1(5)T8). R3 may not initiate any calls. Result: R3 is receiving packets (RIP updates) from R2 once R2 initiates a call. However, R3 cannot send packets to R2, even with the call established. debug ip packet on R3: 01:28:51: IP: s=1.1.1.3 (local), d=1.1.1.2 (BRI0), len 100, sending 01:28:51: IP: s=1.1.1.3 (local), d=1.1.1.2 (BRI0), len 100, encapsulation failed. Configs: hostname r2 no ip domain-lookup isdn switch-type basic-ni ! interface Loopback0 ip address 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.0 ! interface BRI0 ip address 1.1.1.2 255.255.255.0 encapsulation ppp dialer idle-timeout 1 dialer map ip 1.1.1.3 8358683 dialer map ip 3.3.3.3 8358684 dialer-group 1 isdn switch-type basic-ni isdn spid1 0835868101 isdn spid2 0835868201 ! router rip network 1.0.0.0 network 2.0.0.0 neighbor 1.1.1.3 ! dialer-list 1 protocol ip permit ! end --- hostname r3 no ip domain-lookup isdn switch-type basic-ni ! interface Loopback0 ip address 3.3.3.3 255.255.255.0 ! interface BRI0 ip address 1.1.1.3 255.255.255.0 encapsulation ppp dialer idle-timeout 1 dialer-group 1 isdn switch-type basic-ni isdn spid1 0835868301 isdn spid2 0835868401 ! router rip network 1.0.0.0 network 3.0.0.0 neighbor 1.1.1.2 ! ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 1.1.1.2 ! dialer-list 1 protocol ip permit ! end Any ideas why R3 can't send packets to R2 even when the call is established?

Re: Looback as apposed to a secondary [7:54242]
Hi Randy - I'm not clear on what you're asking here. You've got an ethernet interface with two network addresses on it: 205.109.29.128/25 205.109.29.32/27 And a loopback with yet another subnet address on it: 205.109.29.24/29 Three different subnets, three different addresses...what are you trying to accomplish, again?

Re: Simple static route redistribution [7:54040]
I disagree - how does router B know to route traffic back to router A? Router B will need some static route back to Router A, or some other IGP needs to run between A and B. As it is now, traffic *can* get from router A to the OSPF cloud, but not back.

"expanded range" access lists? [7:53859]
Hey Spongebob fans - I've noticed a couple of "new" access-list ranges (1300-1999 and 2000-2699), which may not be all that "new," but they're ones I've never encountered before. After a cursory search on CCO, I can't find any documentation that really explains what they really do. Anyone have any insight?

Re: US Stock [7:19433]
Chuck brings up a good point, one that has been thought of before: back during the height of the arms race, it was theorized that it's a real bad idea to centralize all of your capital. It was thought that maybe all the factories should be spread out evenly, rather than concentrated in any one place - that way, there would be no one place that a nuclear weapon could be detonated that would cause a *major* amount of damage. (Kinda like a Borg spaceship, in a sense). I'm hoping that some of the result of this is that we de-centralize as much as possible - skyscrapers are great if you're hurting for land space, but they're also juicy targets. Hopefully we'll spread our resources out a bit in order to avoid another tragedy like this.

Re: Configure Nat with BGP [7:13265]
I don't think it really matters which routing protocol you use. The "inside" interface is the one with the address you want to keep private (like a 10.0.0.0 address). The "outside" interface is the one with a publically-routable address (anything other than 10.0.0.0, 172.16.0.0, or 192.168.0.0). - Original Message - From: "Justin Lofton" To: Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2001 3:02 PM Subject: Configure Nat with BGP [7:13265] > I'm trying to configure NAT on a router that is running BGP between 4 > internet circuits.

Re: what's wrong with CCIE today? [7:13151]
You're attributing a fault in "these guys" to a certification which doesn't test on UNIX skills. In other words, they're CCIEs - they know more than you or I do about routing and switching on Cisco routers (presumably). But the CCIE is the *beginning* of an overall understanding of how networks work - it's not the end-all-be-all certification which automatically elevates someone to godlike status, as much as you might want them to be networking gods. This is actually one thing I'm worried about, should I ever achieve the CCIE certification: I don't want some future employer to say "Oh, you're a CCIE, great - come over here and fix this NT server," only to be disappointed to learn that I know nothing about NT! The bottom line is: don't criticize a CCIE because they don't know how to use or manage a UNIX server. That's not what they've been trained to do, it's not what they're certified to do, and if you're smart, you won't hire someone to do UNIX stuff without making them prove that they *can* do it. In other words, quit your bellyaching. ;-) BJ - Original Message - From: "Sean Young" To: Sent: Friday, July 20, 2001 6:14 PM Subject: what's wrong with CCIE today?
