heys,
just passed the ccda exam today (ccna prior). looking to get some hands-on
experience on a contract, part-time basis. any thoughts on how/where to start
(dc area)?
thanks.

one tip is to issue the no debug all command prior to issuing debug all. that way when
the router display begins spewing debug info you can issue an up arrow and enter
command
sequence to get out of debug mode.

mirable dictu!
secret is in the standby track command. lost 9 pings and then picked
up just like nothing happened. can pull any of the 4 links now an it
works just like in the movies.

i can only comment in a limited way and only based on what i have

you make an a priori argument that lower is better. is a lower number
cpa better than a higher numbered one? actually, probably the inverse
is true as the more recent the certification the more recent the

what kind of circuit is it and is the success rate the same regardless
of the destination address pinged?

this technically isn't a cisco question, but i've been a long-time reader and
this is a puzzle eluding solution thus far so i thought i would try. i also
find it somewhat intriguing.

possibilities and it forces one to think about all the many things that can
go wrong.

not sure there is an absolute answer as it would depend on actual cable
distance travelled (not as the crow flies), number of hops, policies
enforced, congestion, etc. as a rule of thumb i would use estimated
distance in kilometers / (400kilometers per second * .6). it is usually in
the ballpark.
for those tired of studying ospf, now you can sing it. i'm unaffiliated with

and on a lighter note "i never let school interfere with my education."
having done the management thing for 20 years i can say from a pragmatic
standpoint that a degree's value is primarily getting in the door. having
passed that hurdle comes the real test - do you know what you profess to
know.
just passed bcran 605 w/888 (706 minimum). fairly straightforward. between
routing, switching and remote access (the 3 ccnp exams i've taken thus far)
this
has had the most direct relevant use. (we're a software/hardware integrator

as a rule of thumb 10mbps ethernet to the user end station is fine for
typical user applications in businesses where the network plant is
switched - exchange, file sharing, etc. servers on 100mbps. i'm told that
more data intensive applications may require 100mbps ethernet to the
desktop, but i
depends on how you define the "uber" layers. here's mine:

layer 9 - politics
layer 10 - economics.
