New CCNA 1.0 how I did it.
I am proud to say that as of Friday I am now a CCNA. This is my first post to the list since I now feel I have at least a little something to share. I have worked in the computer field for over 13 years mostly in PC hardware and software for federal government contract and the like, most recently I have been doing technical sales engineering work. Three months ago I decided to start my quest for a few industry certifications and decided that the CompTia A+ would be a good way to get my feet wet with the whole self study and Sylvan exam routine. After three weeks of studying for the A+ I sat for both Exams on the same day and scored a 93% and 100% respectively on the two exams. A+ was really just a good starting point to get me in the habit of read, study, practice test, study some more, practice test and then the Exam. After I passed my A+ exam I decided that the Cisco certifications I had heard about would be a good route for me to take since I was looking now for something where I felt that not only would I get a certification but I would learn something that I could use and build on. After only a little research I figured out that the CCNA certification was the best first step for me. I purchased the Cisco CCNA Training Kit (100% CD-ROM based). I know now that many people rave about Todd's CCNA book but two things kept me from getting it, one I had yet to discover GroupStudy.Com and two I wanted to start my foundation of learning with reading how Cisco says things should be done since CCNA is not my last Cisco certification I plan on getting. After starting to slowly plow through the Cisco CCNA Training Kit and reading some of the great things about Todd's CCNA study materials I decided to use his CCNA Exam Notes for my "Ok here's what you have to know" part of my self study. Three quarters of the way through the Cisco materials I realized I was going to require some sort of router or at a minimum a simulator if I was going to be able to understand and remember the IOS commands. I purchased the Sybex Virtual Lab e-trainer to fill that need since a Router was not in my budget just yet. After three weeks of reading through the entire Cisco CCNA Training Kit and insuring that I understood the OSI Model, IP Subnet's, IP IPX Access list etc I moved on to a quick read through of the CCNA Exam Notes and drilling through the Virtual Lab to make sure I was ready. I used the final exam feature from the CCNA Training Kit and took those tests about five times and was scoring in the high 80's with a low 90 for my last run through. The next day I scheduled my exam for Friday on which I scored a 844. I know this message is long but I hope that some of the people that subscribe to this list that do not already have their CCNA will realize some benefit from knowing what I did and the materials I used to study for the exam. In summary I used: Cisco CCNA Training Kit (ISBN# 0735708797) highly recommend if you really want to get it from the horses mouth. Has very good chapter tests, flash card and final exam. Todd Lammle CCNA Exam Notes (ISBN# 0782125352) Very good as a quick run through for most of you need to know for the exam though you wont pass just reading this book. Sybex Virtual Lab e-trainer. (ISBN # 0782127282 )For me this was a great program, it helped me learn the commands that were needed for the CCNA exam by using them for the labs. Its not router but for $65 what do you expect. I also realize that I took the 1.0 exam and not the 2.0 exam and that unless you are a quick study of in a hurry this will be old news in two months. I am onto studying for my CCNP next. Thanks to everyone on this list for your great posts , advice and links. (especially the links to free books and t-shirts!!) John Hoeft A+, CCNA winmail.dat

Re: Very interesting RIP issue
Not sure what the nature of the problem is here, but here are a couple of points to note: 1. The TTL field is in the IP header and not the UDP header. 2. The TTL is only decremented after the packet crosses a router hop ( a switch hop does NOT count). 3. The inital TTL=15, and it gets decremented after that as it crosses routers. This makes it surprising that you're seeing TTL=1 or 2. It implies alot of router hops. Cormac Cormac Long, CCSI#21600 http://www.cormaclong.com --- Lance Simon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi group!

Passed MCNS 2.0 (640-442)
Just a quick note to say that I passed MCNS 2.0 yesterday - 848/1000, passing mark is 708. This had 60 questions in 90 minutes because I did the test here in Papua New Guinea (you get extra time if you do an exam outside a "Western" country to get over any language difficulties). However I finished it in 60 minutes. Wasn't too difficult but as usual, pay attention to the exam objectives. I was also fortunate that I work with PIXs, Firewall Feature Set (and ACLs), NASs and CiscoSecure on a daily basis which really helped. I am also in the process of implementing a failover for our PIX at work so I spent some time playing with the commands on that before blowing the config away and putting it into production. I was fortunate enough to do the training course with Global Knowledge (ex Geotrain guys) in Sydney (Aust). Due to the lack of seats (3 only) at the one testing centre here in PNG I did the exam 6 weeks after attending the course. For the exam I reviewed the course notes and read Mireke Kaeo's "Designing Network Security". I think this book, along with Priscilla's "Top-Down Network Design" are 2 must-have tomes for anyone setting out to learn about network design. In line with most of the previous comments about MCNS on this list take your time and and work out the tricky ones logically. I've gone a bit arse-about with the order of my exams so unfortunately I can't use the "+ Security" designation after my CCNA and CCDA but hopefully this will only be a matter of another few weeks.

Re: full meshed ip unnumbered network
I don't think the second solution would work to well if you tried to put all of the interfaces in the same network space, but 1 and 3 should be ok. I'm not too sure where the worry about load balancing comes in since each router only has one direct hop to the other. There should only be one link to a destination at a time in this design. If a link goes down, it will take the two-hop route. The meshed frame-relay solution is how we do it where I work, but PTP versus FR is mostly a matter of cost and what you need the circuit to do. here is the design: ETHERNET | 1XXX /\ / \ 2XXX 3XXX - / \ ETHERNET ETHERNET the three routers are seperated by point to point wan links, my questions involve the pros/cons of addressing the wan links using various techniques. 1. make each p2p link its own /30 network 2. make all p2p links use addresses out of the same pool (i.e. 10.0.0.1, .2, .3, .4, .5, .6) 3. ip unnumbered e0 i think that solutions 2 3 would cause problems if one link came down, because only a portion of the subnet is down if you were doing per packet load balanceing, then every other packet would drop... as a variation, you colud take the link down between routers 2 3, and make the other p2p's frame relay links, then have a logical full mesh using pvc's...

RE: Very interesting RIP issue
Actually Lance was referring to a RIP packet, and it would make sense that a RIP packet would begin with an extremely low TTL field (of either 1 or 2) so that it would only be propagated to neighboring routers. You wouldn't want a routing update to go any further than that.

Runts and Giants
I didn't see an adequate answer to this question so here is my take, Runts are most often seen after a switch when the switch is doing cut-thru and detects a bad packet. It will truncate the packet, ( however since the first part of the packet is on the wire already you now have a runt)and then is supposed to back send a jam-burst out the incoming port if the coruption was due to a colision detection, to alert affected transmitters of the detected colision. Often times I also see late colisions somewhere on the network. If this is true then determine where the ethernet rules may be broken (I know a switch is a violation just being there) and causing your problems to show up. Happens most in over extended 100MHz. networks. A giant has more possibilities, usually a colision, or mismatch of allowable packet length or setting, or an allowable long packet hitting a device unable to handle long packets, or a jabbering NIC. Checking for these combination of problems will generally lead to the true source of the problem which probably isn't the new Novell server.

Common solution 2. make all p2p links use addresses out of the same pool (i.e. 10.0.0.1, .2, .3, .4, .5, .6) CL: with point to point links this would be difficult to achieve. You would have one link per serial interface. Essentially, you would have to give each interface a 32 bit mask, meaning that in effect all the serial ports would be on different networks as far as the routing table is concerned. If, on the other hand, you had a frame relay partial mesh ( hub and spoke ), this would indeed be one way of doing things. Each pvc would be associated with a single IP, all of which could be on the same network. If you had a frame relay full mesh, with two pvc's per site, and you are not using subinterfaces, then you should be able to do this. I won't state that emphatically, because I have never tested this, instead choosing to go the subinterface route in a full mesh. ( I worked in small companies. What can I say? ) 2. ip unnumbered e0 CL: another common way of doing things. Very clean, and saves on IP addresses. i think that solutions 2 3 would cause problems if one link came down, because only a portion of the subnet is down if you were doing per packet load balanceing, then every other packet would drop... CL: except that if a link is down, your routing protocol should discover that, and send all packets out the only good interface. You are using something other than RIP, are you not? :- as a variation, you colud take the link down between routers 2 3, and make the other p2p's frame relay links, then have a logical full mesh using pvc's...

There are some cases where ISIS may have less overhead on the router than OSPF.

RE: issues with HSRP
Nonsense, the routers do not look in each others config to get HSRP working. When HSRP is working, it checks to see if the primary router is online, in your case it checks to see if the primary is up and running. When the primairy fails it takes over the "shared" address.nothing more (nothing less). So when you virtual ip adres changes to the other blade, the other config is used. Oh when VLAN 1 was shutdown, HSRP will never use that interface.in fact...HSRP will not be running on that interface. Be aware that in a 6006 with MSFC's both MSFC's are online (also when 1 supervisor engine is switched off) so when you are bridging VLANS.take care of the spanning tree.

Re: Cisco Certified Salaries
I agree with Brad the your best bet is to "Keep chugging along", get some more experience under belt. However, Brad, I don't think Chad was wanting to be told that he "deserves" $150K/yr for his certs. Although I also agree with another person that responded, that it depends on where you are, I still think $29K/yr is low for MSCE/CCNA/CCDA *anywhere*. Just to give you an idea, I live in a college town of around 65,000 (100,000 with students included), and someone with MSCE could easily get a job around here for $40K/yr or more. I know a MSCE in the St. Louis area will pull in at least $45K/yr. My brother-in-law in St. Louis with only about 6 months of PC/Network Support experience, who got his CCNA about a month ago (he also has MCSE) just landed a job with a Fortune 500 company @ $60K/yr. If you have MSCE/CCNA/CCDA, and you're only getting $29K/yr, find a new employer. If no one in your area is willing to pay more, move to a new city! IMHO, Cisco certs are virtually worthless in small towns (100,000 or less) because the demand is so low (i.e. there may only be 5-10 positions in the whole town for someone Cisco Certified) compared to larger cities (500,000 or above). MSCE/CNE are definitely helpful in those same small towns (100,000 or less), but are almost a dime a dozen in larger cities (500,00 or above). My 2 cents =) Mike W.

RE: VLAN Trunk traffic question
I don't think so. A trunk type is just a tag type and has nothing to do with the traffic inside it. When you configure VLAN's, you split up your network into broadcast domains. So I think that you will have less traffic on a trunk than you have without the trunks. Beware that when you (in the router) bridge between the VLAN's, the amount of traffic will be increased because a broadcast on VLAN 1 will also appear in VLAN 2.so this broadcast will be twice inside the trunk.

Re: Cisco Certified Salaries
I think you are a perfect example of the difference between having certs, having experience and having certs and experience. I started out in the Unix track 12 years ago, I don't have any Unix certs. Before that I had about 8 years on PCs. Then I moved into the Banyan world and got all their certs. (CBS, CBI, CBE). Although I was quite the Banyan Bigot, I wasn't blind. I got my MCSE 5 years ago and I was employed in jobs that used Unix/Banyan/NT. Two years ago I saw that MCSE was getting to be a paper cert, I didn't like that and started to study Cisco. Last year I got the CCNA/CCDA. I was extremely lucky to land a contract where I used Cisco equipment 5 days a week eight hours a day for appx 5 months. Not just getting a little hands on but I had a rack of 6 routers and a couple of switches where I did configuration verification and design. Not bad for a CCNA/CCDA. In the last 2 months I have taken and passed CLSC/CMTD/ACRC (I woke one day and put myself on a schedule). I am now 1 exam away from CCNP and one exam away from CCDP. So, you have a bunch of certs, I have a bunch of certs - what's the difference? About 20 years in the industry. In your case you did not mention if you take leadership roles or if you perform junior tasks. Changing tapes with a PhD doesn't mean you get paid big bucks, you're still changing tapes. However, if you are doing the leadership roles like planning a migration of a large company (with the paper work that entails) and then leading the team that does it then no matter what your age or length of time in the industry, you should be getting paid for it if you do it. I'm not trying to put you down at all, once you get the time in and get the leadership type of roles, the money will follow. Another factor of course is location. Someone in a big city is going to make more than the guy in a small town. But then again, the big city guy will have higher cost of living expenses too. Get more experience, in that experience try to get more senior roles. If necessary move to a larger market. Everything will follow after that. Kevin Wigle - Original Message - From: "Chad A.

RE: OT: Does Cisco give away training for big $ purchases?
There are ways of making Cisco Gold partners pay for your training. I have a good working relationship with my Cisco Sales Manager and she suggested that after a large purchase is made, convince the Gold or Silver partner that if some training is not apart of the package you will use a different vendor. Get a couple quotes from different vendors to make sure you are not slitting your throat. What the company will do, like Federal Data Corp., they will contact Global Knowledge, and get a certificate for a week long course for which you can redeem for training. The Gold partners make an awful lot of money and an arrangement between companies (FDC and GK) is a lot different than arrangement between customer and Global Knowledge. Once you have your sales or marketing person convinced you will take your business elsewhere you are the winning customer. Just make sure you don't have critical time constraints because this could take some negotiation. Review: Finalize your quote with vendor. Then tack on training coupons, or threaten to go elsewhere.

Re: Bridging ?
not a real useful reply Gerwin... certain schenarios call for this technology - mainly for legacy IBM-type networking (in my experience) - SNA and the like. I don't have a whole lot of experience doing this in a LAN environment but have done a bunch of DLSw+ stuff. Also here is DECNet, LAT, NetBIOS and the like, so there is call for this stuff, perticularly in Banking-type places where there is a large amount of established mini/main-frame type investment where moving away from the bomb-proof data-processing framework is more expensive than doing a little clever networking... best of luck - if you learn this you'll most likely never have to use it, but if you don't then sooner or later it's going to come along and bite you in the arse;-) take care Andy - Original Message - From: Gerwin Boschloo [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Nathan Cruz' [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 04, 2000 10:18 PM Subject: RE: Bridging ? it is very important, I see it every day!!!

Re: How to make redundancy using BGP?
I work for a european ISP as a network engineer and get this kind of cr*p all the time If you are SERIOUS about redundancy the go get an AS# and some PI (Provider Independant) space from ARIN, etc - multi-home with two ISPs, take a full routing table, advertise your own routes, AS#, etc. ie take a transit agreement (as opposed to a peering agreement which is something else entirely) There is no way in the world that two providers are going to sync up private AS #s - in fact they couldn't do it as it would mean they would both be advertising the same address space as a part of their native AS# which you know can't be done. I'm a little hazy about DNS/bind but if you must have two PA (Provider Aggregate) address spaces from two providers then I believe that you can equally weight the two entries to resolve out alternately, although this is potentially a nightmare from the tracerouting/symetrical routing standpoint as DNS may well reolve ut differently each time.

Re: ask for help on DHCP
Yep, all you need is to configure the Helper address (ip helper-address [address]) command on Router1, and as long as Router1 has route to LAN3 (whether by static or routing protocol... and Router3 has route back to LAN1). See, Router1 will take the DHCP broadcasts and convert them into unicast packets and send them directed to LAN3. For the "address" argument in the command you can use the specific IP of the DHCP server or use the broadcast address for that network (192.168.100.255). garyf - Original Message - From: "Cai, Land" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "'Cisco (E-mail)'" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, June 04, 2000 8:52 PM Subject: ask for help on DHCP Dear gang, I have the following situation.

Fw: issues with HSRP
Don, what Cisco are telling you is rubbish - if you have the exact same configs on both MSFCs then nothing will work - you can't have the same IP addresses on the physical cards, same priorities, both with/without preempt, etc... I run 6509s with MSFCs with 100+ HSRP sessions per card with no problems - except when the backplane of a chassis blew up on me :-( It really doesn't matter what the configs are so long as the VLAN #s and group #s match, the priorities are different, and the cards can see the keepalives (enable the appropriate vlans on the uplinks if you're running HSRP between switches). Don't know what LU6.2 is but HSRP is an IP L3 thing so I don't quite get where bridging fits with that - maybe DLSW+-type thing? Failover at L2 needs to be STP-based... If you want to nominate a particular card as primary come what may, you need the preempt on the end of the priority statement, so that if the lower prio card is live and the primary comes back after a failure it will take it back from the secondary. Don't know of any tools for this - prefer doing it manually as the two-way syncing of the Sups throws me as I never know for sure which way it will go... let me know how you get on Andy - Original Message - From: Don Dettmore [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 01, 2000 2:26 PM Subject: issues with HSRP Greetings I implemented HSRP on my Catalyst 6006 w/ redundant Supervisor/MSFCs.

I'm afraid that my woes continue - the link is working fine, authenticated, can reach anything I want to, resolve to the DNS servers at the ISP, use the ISP's proxy but occasionally for a few minutes the workstations using the link cant access anything. I can still ping the ISP from the router but not from the workstations. I'm not really sure if this is a router problem or a result of using the remote proxy but here is the meat of my config: ip subnet-zero ip nat pool XX x.x.x.x x.x.x.x netmask x.x.x.x ip nat inside source list 1 pool xx overload no ip domain-lookup isdn switch-type basic-net3 ! interface Ethernet0 ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x ip nat inside ! interface BRI0 description connected to Internet no ip address ip nat outside encapsulation ppp dialer rotary-group 1 dialer-group 1 no cdp enable ! interface Dialer1 description connected to Internet ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x ip nat outside encapsulation ppp no ip split-horizon dialer in-band dialer string x dialer hold-queue 10 dialer-group 1 no cdp enable ! ip classless ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Dialer1 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 x.x.x.x access-list 1 permit x.x.x.0 0.0.0.255 All details that might identify the customer or compromise security should be gone.

Re: Cisco Certified Salaries
NOTE: I am not a CCIE yet. I'm 26, work as a Level 2 WAN admin (out of 4 levels, and getting promoted to a 3 shortly), and make a base of $60k (and a $3k sign on bonus when I started) + $12k added to my salary for being on call 24x7x365. This is in Las Vegas which is typically considerd a very low-end of the marketplace (because the Casinos are cheap as hell! Never work in one! I did and it sucked! Besides, they are ALL Token Ring because of the sheel number of IBM/AS400 dominance. I now work 10 miles away from the strip). I only get called once or twice a week, usually I can resolve the issue from home. Prior to this job I had my MCSE and CCNA (Jan 1999, worked at the Tropicana Hotel as a Network Admin), although I now realize more than ever that hands on is the only true measure of ones abilities. When I completed my MCSE I knew right away I had wasted 10 weeks of my time taking 6 exams in relation to my career, but I did learn alot about NT and was glad for my own sake of knowledge, but nothing I would want to brag about to other "System admins". In 99% of the REAL network jobs, the Network Administrator is not responsible for Servers or operating systems. The only concern should be packets, cells, circuits, troublshooting, and monitoring, among a few others. Forget Exchange, SQL Server, NT Domains, and all that other crap. Don't get me wrong, it's good to know, but only for your own knowledge and troubleshooting purposes, don't let your employer make your responsible for that crap. A Senior Level Network Administrator should never have to worry about the work of System Administrators and an Operations department. BTW, I heard Sprint Long Distance (not Sprint the loca carrier or Paranet/ENS) is offering CCIEs $120k + $30k sign on bonus. This came straight from one of their enigneers. - Original Message - From: Kevin S.

You still need to "prove" yourself. No offense, but the certs you have aren't very hard to get. If you get overtime, that is a pretty cool...a lot of places won't pay OT these days. Give yourself a year or two in the business. After that experience, plus a CCNP you should be closer to $60-$70k /yr. Keep chugging along! -Brad ""Chad A.

Need Help!
Dear Fellows! I need a help. I'm working on 2503 Router and I have to configure it for DDR. Since it doesn't have any async port i had to configure the auxillary port to use as async and attache it with the modem. Can anyone of you guide me to configure that auxilary port for DDR i.e. to configure it as async one. I have already configured DDR on the async port but having problem in connecting my modem with the auxilary port as the TR signal is not lit on the modem. Please help me in configuring the auxilary port. thanks Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 ___ UPDATED Posting Guidelines: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/guide.html FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: VLAN Trunk traffic question
Thank you! I've been trying to find the answer to that for a while now. I don't have a way to test it on our production network or I would have simply set it up and watched what happened. My bosses get a little upset when I start playing with our corporate backbone switches just for the fun of it. :-) silly people... It's not like I'd hurt something...well, there was that one time when I made the 7513 reboot...during business hourstwiceoops... Thanks again! John Neiberger To answer your question, I believe the switch ports, whether trunked or not, still forward based on the table of learned MAC-addresses. Meaning that a VLANx packet, assuming the destination MAC address is already learned, will only traverse the trunk port towards the valid destination. -- Fred Nielsen [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- John Neiberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 24049784.959891399421.JavaMail.imail@tiptoe">news:24049784.959891399421.JavaMail.imail@tiptoe... : In this case, though, both switches B and C are in the same VLAN, but I : wouldn't want traffic destined for C going down the trunk connected to B. : This would be a waste of time and bandwidth.
