Re: CCIE Lab Setup [7:73612]

2003-08-14 Thread Brad Ellis
I'd get an ISDN simulator, and something to use as a frame-relay switch
(2520, 2521, 2522, or 2523).  Those would be my recommendations for what to
purchase next.  After that, add a 2511 (or equiv for access-serv), and then
add a 3550 on.

thanks,

I know that having two 2610s... you could not train on 802.1q or ISL.  Well,
actually you can perform 802.1q but you must have IOS 12.2T series IOS.  I
know that is one drawback because I have concerns for having a couple of
2610s but I also have a 3640 too.

Since you don't have any access to the ATM switch on the exam it follows
that you don't need to know how to configure it.  There are things such
as ILMI/QSAAL with auto pvc discovery that may not function the same on
a point to point link versus having a switch in the middle.  Just a
thought.

On this same thread...
What are the recommendations for ATM lab hardware? 
Can ATM be practiced with ATM ports connected back-to-back or is it
necessary to get an ATM switch also? 
Thanks.

JMHO, what you should be looking for is sufficient ports to run complex
practice scenarios and routers capable of running the IOS version that
is current in the Lab. \specific models may or may not be of importance.

( as an aside, I laugh my ass off every time I read a post from someone
expressing worry about the announced changes in IOS and addition of a
3725 to the Lab. At least when the 3550 switch was introduced there was
reason for some apprehension, ans nono of the rental racks had a 3550 in
them ). after all, a router is a router, and the routing protocol
commands will work exactly the same on a 25xx, 26xx, 36xx, etc.

I'm currently focusing on 12.2.something.Tsomething 12.2.15(T5) maybe
-everything is off at the moment.

I don't know about the 2610, but the 2611 is capable of running dot1q
and ISL trunks, plus if you use the enterprise basic image you can do
IS-IS, BGP, and MPLS.

I honestly do not know what you are referring to.  A plug on one side and a
jack on the other?  I am probably missing something simple but nothing rings
a bell!!!  Of course, I am a girl from Thailand and maybe my "slang" English
is not up to par.  Hee hee

Can you please explain what that is about?

2003-08-14 Thread Reimer, Fred
I think he is referring to a RJ45 jack on one end, and a RJ45 connector on
the other, so that you can turn a normal patch cable into a cross-over
cable.

I'd actually suggest plugging all of the router Ethernet ports into a switch
so that you can create VLANs and match two routers up in an ad-hoc kind of
way remotely...

2003-08-14 Thread Daniel Cotts
You have a great start. Let's consider what you have. The 2500s are great.
In time, you will want to load an Enterprise version of IOS. That requires
16 MB Flash and 16 MB DRAM. There are many sources of third party DRAM and
Flash - check the archives.
You didn't say if the 2600s had any WIC cards. Two WIC-1Ts in each would be
great. I recently bought several at an average price of $50 each. Just be
patient.
Again, verify how much Flash and DRAM you need for all your routers to run
the images you want.
Back-to-back serial cables. Again several sources. I have purchased from Bob
Lowery, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Good prices and great service. Length depends on
how you group your routers. Three foot (one meter) is handy if the routers
are close together. Six foot or ten foot might also be useful.
Ethernet cables. You'll want some crossover cables. May I suggest making
some very short ones with a plug on one end and a jack on the other. Then
add a regular patch cord of the desired length to meet your needs.
Consider racking your equipment. Besides the full height racks you may have
at work, there are short portable racks made for musicians. The rack is part
of a shipping container. The discussions about these on groupstudy indicated
they were quite reasonably priced.
If you start with Routing, I would think that you have everything you need.
I'll assume, without checking, that the 8 A/S module has DB-60 interfaces.
Later when you do Remote Access an ISDN simulator would be a great addition.
CCO has many resources. There are many great books. Consider some of those
mentioned often on the list. Doyle "Routing TCP/IP" Vols I and II, "Cisco
LAN Switching" by Clark and Hamilton, the Cisco Press books for the
Networking Academy courses, etc.
Good luck and have fun.

RE: CCNP and future CCIE lab setup [7:73696]

2003-08-14 Thread R. Benjamin Kessler
I think they're suggesting that you make a short cross-over male to female
cable (instead of the standard male to male patch cable).

The idea being that you could still use your standard patch cables and where
a cross-over cable was required and simply connect the short cross-over to
one end.

Does this clear it up for you or are you more confused?

Can you please explain what that is about?

Actually, that is not true.  A 2611 can do 802.1Q inter-vlan routing but
cannot do ISL trunking.  Of course, I am getting this information from the
Cisco website... but if you know differently... please inform me.

Which track are you studying for?

If you need a PIX and like most of us cant afford to buy everything you need
for your lab, i would suggest building your own. I dont know how this stands
legally, but from a technical aspect it is possible to build your own PIX
clone. You can find detailed documentation on the net on how to do this.

CCNP and future CCIE lab setup [7:73696]

2003-08-07 Thread Natchaya Radhikulkaralak
Like the other person previously... I am trying to build a lab.

I am personally starting my Cisco track but I have recieved some routers
from my work.

I personally have 2-2501, 3-2503, 1-2504, 1-as2511-rj(which I dont know how
to use), 1-2611, 1-2612, 1-3640 w/ 8 a/s module: 2ME-2W module: 4-port ISDN
Bri module (dont know module name), 2-2912, 1-2950.

Can you also give me any suggestions?  Larus has mentioned a backbone router
but isnt the 3640 sufficient?  Overall... is there anything else that i need
to improve this other than 3550 switches which are way out of my budget!!!?

Re: CCIE Lab Setup [7:73612]

2003-08-07 Thread Thomas Larus
With $1,000 dollars, I would first buy a 4 port frame switch router, perhaps
a 2520.  I say 2520, not 2521 (Token ring), because the ethernet port on the
2520 allows it to serve as an additional router-- perhaps a "backbone"
router that you would connect to using ethernet. $200-$300, if you are
lucky.

A 4500 with a NP-4T might be even better (but loud!!)  This will take
perhaps 300 dollars or so.  You could add another 4 serial ints and/or a
bunch of ethernet ints, and this could definitely serve as a full-fledged
lab router as well as a frame switch.

If you can find a cheap ISDN simulator (vConsole or Euro ISDN PBX gizmo that
only does Basic-Net3 and no spids) for $400-500, you probably ought to buy
it, since you already have two ISDN capable routers.  Then a 1900 or 2820
switch for $100 to $200 so you have a VLAN-capable switch.  If you have
enough money left over, you could pick up one more 2501. (Always buy a 2503
or 2514 if you can get it for a little more than a 2501, of course.)

It's not a first-rate lab, but it is enough of you to learn a lot of the
most difficult lessons. You could go for more routers and no ISDN sim, but
ISDN can be such a tricky technology it is worth spending a lot of time on.
This is a close call, though.

RE: CCIE Lab experience! [7:73263]

2003-08-01 Thread Joel Satterley
ALL lab books will help - I've been working in Networking for nearly ten
years, with Cisco products for 6-7 years - mainly in the field.  I only
attempted the lab to get extra time to do it & used 1 LAB Study Guide
(Hutnik/Satterlee) & some old sample labs.

They ask you to do so much with a small lab (6 or 7 devices) it's difficult
to comprehend before you see it.

Just practice getting all your L2 stuff done quickly, get IP working with no
fuss, your IGP's done with no reference manuals - this will leave you with
enough time to ponder over which way to do all the tricky bits.  There's
always 3 ways to skin the Cisco cat & they want you to know the reasons why
you should use all of them.

I will be going for it again soon - when I have time & I intend to pass.

Well, I guess it's not like they also add "and I don't even want to try the
lab", is it?

Once I saw a resume though that said something like "Passed CCIE written
test, which is half way of achieving CCIE certification." The passage "half
way" made me chuckle, too.

2003-07-31 Thread Daniel Cotts
With the assumption this will be your first attempt, let me counter with
another question. How much is the experience worth to you of sitting a lab
to experience the situation and see the difficulty of the questions? It will
demonstrate the topics that need improvement. Would the same money be better
spent attending some training or purchasing some equipment? Further
assumption is that you can afford either.
Good luck in whatever you decide.

I'd take the lab the experience will help you a lot - less pressure for
the next 'real' attempt.  But then, I wasn't paying.

Team,
Your opinion is always accepted as a good advice...Question if you are at a
point where
you are running out of time for the lab, what will be more efficient, take
the lab (spend $2000[traveling and the lab fees]) or let your written
qualifications expired and take it again[spend $300]...
Thanks,

Juan

As far as I understand, the lab is not 2 days anymore.  It is only one day.
And they don't break things and have you find and fix them.  You just have
to configure the network correctly and answer some questions.  You could
pass the lab by just reading books, but you'd have to have a pretty special
ability to understand things without actually configuring them on a real
router.

Hi there,

I have finished my CCNP exam.

Well, I live in Sydney, Australia and I still could not find job. I wish to
carry on with CCIE. I do not have problem with passing writing CCIE exam,
but
what about practical exam of 2 days duration. I have found some programs on
the net. But is it enough to pass without practice. I have passed my CCNP by
only reading books and downloading simulation programs.

Can somebody give me advice whether I could carry on without real hand on
experince?

Is there some way to volonteer to work for free?

Is there some way to get free CCIE Lab experience?


Thanks in advance

Depends on confidence, preparation, and budget - if I were not confident in
my ability to pass, and I couldn't afford to blow $2K, I'd likely get a
fresh 18 months and re-do the written. If, on the other hand, I could afford
it, I'd get that initial attempt out of the way, since first-time passers
are so rare, and then concentrate on the weak points.

RE: CCIE Lab experience! [7:73263]

2003-07-31 Thread Kaminski, Shawn G
I just can't see it happening (pass the CCIE lab with only reading books).
I'm a CCNP/CCDP with a good, solid three years of hands-on Cisco experience
under my belt and can't believe what I've learned by being able to actually
configure and troubleshoot the equipment. There's no way that I could get
that from just reading books. And I still don't feel prepared to tackle the
CCIE lab yet! 

If you can't afford your own equipment, see if you can find a study group in
your area. Most times, many members of the group already have all the
equipment and you can work on scenarios together.

Or, you can actually rent rack time very cheaply now if you want some
hands-on practice.

HTH,
Shawn K.

I don't know. Superman became a skilled surgeon just by readng the medical

RE: CCIE Lab experience! [7:73263]

2003-07-31 Thread Creighton, Bill, NSPM
Alex,
Congratulations on passing your NP exam(s). The lab exam is no longer the 2
day format. Details can be found at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/learning/le3/le11/learning_ccie_lab_exam.html

You must have more than just knowledge, but also speed - the ability to type
very fast is even beneficial due to the length and quantity of
configurations you will need to create and manipulate. There are several
companies that offer lab simulations and remote access to their racks - this
might be helpful since you say you've already got the understanding - just
need the practical...

   Yes I would think you'd have to have a "very" special ability to be 
able to pass the lab by reading only books, no hands on experience!!!

As far as I understand, the lab is not 2 days anymore.  It is only one day.
And they don't break things and have you find and fix them.  You just have
to configure the network correctly and answer some questions.  You could
pass the lab by just reading books, but you'd have to have a pretty special
ability to understand things without actually configuring them on a real
router.

what about practical exam of 2 days duration. I have found some programs on

Can somebody give me advice whether I could carry on without real hand on

I couldn't agree more, buy from Ebay! Also if you already have purchased a
lab book, buy equipment that fits its topology or look at the available lab
books on the market that you may purchase and construct a lab that would
accommodate any of their topologies. Like IPExpert, CCBootCamp, or
NetmasterClass's new lab book.

For sure you should know a lot about redistribution.

A statement I heard from a Cisco guy responsable for the test in my country:


-Certainly it will be asked one topic that you never have heard about; this
is to test your capacity to look the CD documentation and find an answer.

Certainly you should know all you can, because there is no time to search on

you are responsible for anything that can be done with the particular IOS on
the particular equipment. with the exception of those things which
specifically are not covered.

you really need to dig deeper on the CCIE site. it's all there.

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/625/ccie/exam_preparation/preparation.html

practice labs abound. a simple google search for "CCIE practice lab" will
result in quite a few hits.

RE: CCIE Lab - Boson Router Simulator [7:66367]

2003-04-06 Thread Dave C.
I just wanted to let you know that I purchased the Boson Router Simulator
when I was preparing for my CCNP exams.  Looking back, I feel it was
certainly not worth the investment.  I thought that this may save me some
money over buying a couple of routers on eBay, but I would have been better
off with the routers.

I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what was wrong with the
simulator.  Things as simple as configuring a P-P Frame Relay circuit.  I
was never able to get frame-relay to activate.  Some IP routes would not
refresh correctly until a different routing protocol was loaded and
unloaded.  I could go into more detail, but I do not think it is necessary. 
Then I would have to document these issues and send them on to tech support
and wait a day or so for a response.  It seemed to slow me down in my
progress.

Do not get me wrong, the simulator is a good idea (I think if you are trying
to get your CCNA).  For the complex scenarios we have to learn for the CCNP
or CCIE, there is no replacement other than a network of actual routers.

Hope this helps!

CCIP...Then I am going to head back to study for the CCIE Lab which I
will take once Mr. Solie comes out with his PSV II ..

When Mr. Solie ??   :-)

I have 2 study guides from Cisco for the MPLS: one that says MPLS
Concepts and the other that says MPLS/VPNDo I need to study both of
these for the MPLS exam or just the first one will suffice?

 If both, then do I need any additional books from Cisco Press to
supplement what I have?

Like Advanced VPN by Allwyn or MPLS Traffic Engineering book??

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

CN

RE: CCIE Lab - Boson Router Simulator [7:66367]

2003-03-28 Thread Mike Lucas
I looked into the simulator... but there were not a great deal of CCIE labs
AT ALL... but that was the demo I was looking at and they are constantly
updating the software... but for instance

BGP was unsupported need I say more? LOL... again... they may support it
now and it would be nice of them to do so.. because its not a BAD
product... you can TOTALLY design a lab how you want it 11 routers
(whichever series u want) and whatever kinda switches u want... but limited
on the protocol support side... if they've fixed that it would be
great. the version I saw just wasn't THERE yet.

are you looking into for the written also or just the lab?

just my 2cents.

I am in the process of putting together a CCIE practice lab. I have a bunch
of 2500 routers with varying memory. I know the lab uses 12.1 but my
question is what feature set do I need? Will IP do what I need or do I need
IP Plus, or even Enterprise. Since IPX is gone will just the basic IP image
do all I need?

ah, the perfect opportunity to throw in my own few bucks worth.

no offense to any of the producers of CCIE practice labs. The vendors with
whom I am familiar have all done an excellent job in mimicking the Real
Thing. IP Expert, Hello Computers, Bootcamp are all first rate products.

However, buyers should be aware that each of these vendors have crafted
their labs around an equipment rack which they maintain, and hope to make
money renting to you. The real lab has a few routers and a couple of
switches. Not the dozen or so that these vendors require for their labs. OK.
I exaggerate a bit. But not much.
I believe I am accurate when I state that it can be difficult to simulate
these vendor pods with your home rack.

Nor do I think you need to, but that's another story.

Buyers and sekkers of practice materials should also do a google search on
"CCIE practice labs" and see what you can find. There are LOTS of materials
out there.

My own opinion, to be taken with the appropriate measure of salt: with all
due respect to the vendors of practice labs, it really doesn't make much
difference whose you use. They all sport lists of successful candidates who
used their materials and offer testamonials. Obviously, all of the vendors
are doing something right. There are people who use their materials and
succeed.

The real key is practice, practice, practice, and then read up on why the
answer is what it is, then practice some more.  It is incredibly important
to understand alternatives. And how to attain reachability. And how to
research something you've never heard of on the doc CD, and what to do when
your routing table is a disaster, and when you see route flapping, and
default routes pointing to the wrong router, or your routing protocol does
not communicate with another router the way that it should.

Oh - BTW - never underestimate the value of the free stuff on CCO. The
config guides, the design guides, the stuff in the TAC section, if you have
access to that. Or www.fatkid.com, for that matter.

Best wishes.

RE: CCIE Lab - I have seen he future and it is.... [7:62776]

2003-02-11 Thread Logan, Harold
I disagree, it sounds to me like Chuck is pursuing the IE for the right
reasons. If his goal was to learn enough to pass the lab, and he has learned
most of what he set out to learn, I can't really fault him for being
discouraged. It's very frustrating having spent months or even years
learning how to do 4-way IGP redistribution with no routing loops and all
those other difficult but possible scenarios we subject ourself to, only to
fail the lab because in a low-time high-stress environment you couldn't
think of which OSPF over frame config would meet the bassackwards
requirements on the lab.

It's Cisco's program, and they can do whatever they want with it. But my
learning curve has drastically changed since I started studying for the lab,
and there are other pursuits that I'd like to go after once I'm done with
the lab. Really my primary motivation at this point is that I'm not a
quitter, and I want to finish what I started. I'm not pursuing the IE so I
can get a better job or so I can get promoted at my current one. I teach
CCNA and CCNP classes, and when I pass the lab I'll still be teaching CCNA
and CCNP classes. Having studied for the lab helps me do a much better job
as an instructor, but having a number behind my name won't make a lick of
difference to anyone but me.

Glad you're not depressed and are continuing your quest. You should consider
being a writer. Your writing is really good, although the dipping dots ice
cream analogy is just not working for me. I just can't imagine freeze-dried
ice cream for one thing. Does it use dotted-decimal notation? ;-)

Thanks to all who wrote in.  My Kafkaseque post yesterday apparently touched
a chord (or nerve) with several folks.  I was hoping to start an OT
discussion on those Dippin' Dots ice cream, and draw analogies to
networking.  Heck, I would even settle for Howard asking a variation of his
favorite question:  "what is the ice cream you are trying to eat?"

In all seriousness, I haven't abandoned all hope yet, it has just lessened
in importance and intensity for me. In response to CN's question,  I have
attempted the lab at least once, Brussels, way back when the lab was a two
day lab, and the numbers were still quad digits.Without violating the NDA,
let's just say that  I will never forgive ISDN for what it did to me.

As far as my motives for CCIE chasing, the main reason I am persisting is
that not only have I invested time, money, and freeze dried ice cream, but
the CCIE quest motivates me to study topics that I don't necessarily deal
with on a daily basis, and to practice exotic configurations with those that
I do.  OSPF through a GRE tunnel over an ISDN DBU to the Dippin' Dots
website, anyone?

Thanks,

Charles

actually, i think you have it backwardsthe CCNP of tomorrow will be the
CCIE of todayCCC tests are getting harder...the bar is being raised

if what you state is truly the way you truly feel, then you were in pursuit
of the CCIE for the wrong reason in the first place.

sorry you're so depressed.

They can still make CCIE much harder than CCNP and if it is much harder, it
will be more valued (probably).

They're just trying to save money, be more profitable. We are all trying to
do that in these awful economic times.

But we don't know if it will be that bad. They could do a good job with
this, even if it is somewhat automated. They've got some really smart people
working for them.

I would say, continue with your plans (as you said you were going to) and
don't get depressed! Watch for black/white thinking, over-reacting,
generalizing etc. Those can lead to depression

Re: CCIE Lab - I have seen he future and it is.... [7:62776]

2003-02-10 Thread Charles Riley
Chuck,

Your post reminds me of those weird little ice cream stands that I sometimes
see at the mall and various carnivals.  It's called something like "Dipping
Dots - The Ice Cream of the Future".  The initial human instinct is much
like the Cro-Magnon humanoids encountering the monolith  at the beginning of
2001: A Space Odyssey (sp):  jump up and down with excitement until you
realize it's just freeze dried ice cream.

Rounding out that analogy, the CCIE of the future will probably be reduced
to being the CCNP of today.  Regardless, I have spent too much time and
money to abandon the quest for CCIE now, but frankly, if I hadn't invested
as much as I have, I would most likely abandon the quest in favor of
broadening into other areas.  I really don't see much market value for the
CCIE anymore, especially with Cisco hellbent on making it a meatgrinding
cash cow. Your java console and "one way only to configure" experience kind
of bears this out.

Sorry for the depressing post, just wanted to share.

Charles

CCIE Lab - I have seen he future and it is..... we [7:62756]

2003-02-10 Thread The Long and Winding Road
Been spending this weekend on what was once the Cisco Advanced SE Training
( ASET ) set of labs. These are available for those whose Cisco account team
approves - there are a few conditions which can be found in the wee places
of certification training.

The program is run by Lab Gear ( the only link I have is www.labgear.net,
but
this is a login page ) There are a number of labs of CCIE level, look, and
feel.

Supposed to be real equipment, but the access is via java script windows,
not terminal emulation. This makes for some interesting situations. The
windows show or provide output only when they are active. So if you had two
router sessions open, and you made changes on one router that would generate
systems messages of one sort or another you would not see those messages on
the other. also, I have yet to find a way to generate output from debugging
commands. Things like term mon and logging of one kind or another have not
been successful. so no debug ip routing and debug ip ospf adj.

As with the real lab, there are a series of tasks to be completed. Grading
is done via a script.  This is the point of most interest. Actually, I
suspect a lot of the current CCIE Lab grading is done using scripting tools.
I believe the proctors still physically examine equipment configurations for
some things, but I could be wrong.

It is of interest because to judge from the script outputs I am seeing,
there appears to be an assumption that there is one and only one way to do
things. I'm not sure this is always true. I am not sure that this results in
an entirely accurate grade.

But more importantly, given my experience with the java consoles and the
manner in which these labs must be done, I am not sure I like where this is
headed. Something Brian Dennis and Brad Ellis and some other people started
talking about back when the CCIE Lab went from two days to one - something
about the longer term goal being to do the test remotely, and having people
show up at Sylvan or some other testing center and log in remotely.

If the Lab Gear approach is any indication, this is not ready for real live
testing. I experienced far too many problems with terminal ( javascript )
sessions disconnecting mysteriously. With 8 open windows, it sometimes got
to be very hard to find the session ( router ) I was looking for. Cut and
paste is a real pain. You have to open a "scratchpad" window, which is
associated with the javascript console window. cutting and pasting is done
to this wind. there are scratchpad windows associated with each java wind,
so if you had a scratchpad open for every router session, that makes for a
LOT of junk to fight your way through looking for what you want. then there
is the problem of actually moving what you want to copy and paste. highlight
and control c control v or alt e paste don't work. you have to click on
buttons on the java consoles to copy to and from routers.

beyond that, there is the problems of whether or not the "script" answer is
the right answer. For example, in one lab, a particular instruction requires
that the rip routers on a particular segment have to use the neighbor
statement to see eachother ( and prevent other routers on that segment from
joining into the RIP domain ) well, the problem is, one of those routers is
connected to another RIP router via a different interface. need a neighbor
statement there too, but the script does not cover this, nor does the answer
configuration show this.

anyway, I have seen the future, and the CCIE Lab future looks like it may be
heading to these kinds of remote lab settings.

But this command is only to ignore MOSPF.

The only commercial implementation I knew of was Proteon's, although 
it might be in some versions of GateD. The only place I ever saw it 
used was in some relatively small NASA control center applications.

on a more serious note, suppose you were asked to connect one of the routers
in your pod to a DVMRP source. Do you know where you would look to find the
commands?

this gets back to having spent some time reading the documentation - the
config guides and command references, just to get a feel for what's there
and where to find it.

I can guarantee that you will see at least one task in your lab that you
have never heard of before, at least not if you haven't spend some time
familiarizing yourself with what is in the docs.

focus on the core topics - you know what they are. And also become familiar
with the doc CD. You can pick up a couple of easy points if you have an idea
where to look. I did. For all the good it did me :- Sincerely,

I knew somebody was going to come back with that.

To reiterate, the ability to ignore MOSPF LSA's is clearly not the same as
actually supporting MOSPF.   Supporting MOSPF means, well, the ability to
actually run MOSPF - i.e. the ability to actually build an mroute table from
type6 LSA's.

I'm just dying to talk about some things I did NOT see in the Lab my last

Having said that, I'm sure the proctors or their spies will make sure I get

I think I can answer this one without violating NDA.  MOSPF is not covered
in the lab because Cisco has chosen not to support MOSPF in IOS.  Surely you
would agree that it is not easy to test something in the lab that is not
actually supported within Cisco gear.To digress, I am not aware of a
single mainstream vendor that currently supports MOSPF (if anybody knows of
one, I would like to hear it).

Other than that, anything within Cisco gear that is actually supported is
fair game.

Ooops!! It should be my pant ;->

I did not mean anyone to violate the dreaded NDA.

My question should have read: is DVMRP a  part of the CCIE topics for the 
Lab?

The reason is that I see a lot of DVMRP material in the cmd. and config. 
guide but not on other topics MOSPF etc.

I guess, then I will have to cover it in my studies for the Lab.

Probably the most you'll get out of anyone is that it is possible that DVMRP
is covered in the new CCIE lab because anything is fair game. Since the
Cisco IOS software supports PIM-to-DVMRP interaction, there is a chance
you'll see it depending on the lab you get.

Since both are allowed in 5.2, you should be able to use either set of
commands if asked.

Having said that, the trend is definitely toward access-lists rather
than the conduit format in the real world.  IIRC, the new FWSM module
doesn't allow conduits at all.

Hello,

I checked the cisco web site and find only 2600,3600 routers and 3550
Switches for the R&S Practical Exam. I want to know how many wud I need, say
to set up atleast 50% lab of the one in the Cisco exam. Anyone who has
attended the CCIE lab  cud pls help me in this. My intension in setting up
lab is to have clear understanding and practical implementation of
technologies tested in this lab.

Also what all stimulators from exam point of view may be needed.

Can we emulate ATM cloud using any of the routers like we can with a frame
relay by using a cisco 4000 series router? If yes which router and what card
wud be needed.

I currently have one 2600 with 8 port A/S card and one 3550 switch and can
get one 3600 with WIC-1T from a friend of mine for a couple of days, along
with one back to back cable .

What all do u think I shud add on? 
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

CCIE Lab Study Materials - including 3550 labs [7:59683]

2002-12-21 Thread The Long and Winding Road
Appears to be freely available. At least, I found the link after a google
search on "Bruce Caslow", found a link to the study site, and was able to
download these with no problems. Authored by the good folks at netmasters /
netcraftsmen, some of whom we know as Caslow, Pavlichenko, and Inghram, good
folks all.

http://www.netmasterclass.net/site/lib.php

Also - don't forget the for-profit folks - NLI / b.o.o.t.c.a.m.p, Lamer
Networks, various auctions on you know where, IP Expert, Hello Computers,
Gett Labs, and of course Cert Zone, where my own materials for which I was
paid are available.

Don't forget to take some time for yourselves and for your families and
friends these next couple of weeks!

What Terminal Emulator is used in the CCIE lab? [7:59267]

2002-12-15 Thread McAllister Paul
What Terminal Emulator is used in the CCIE lab?
Can you have multiple sessions (screens) open?
Also, I assume it's a workstation with a keyboard, not a nasty laptop.

Any info?

Thanks
Paul

I have heard there are two, but then again if you ask the ccie team they
won't tell you directly, at least they wouldn't tell me a week ago what the
exact number of each peice of equipment was.

Re: CCIE Lab Test in Canada? [7:59145]

Don't know where the closest lab is but Halifax was closed down some time
ago.

I don't think there are any labs in Canada anymore.
