RE: Connecting Switches, hubs..

2000-07-27 Thread Phill Jolliffe

STP has nothing to do with hubs but if a switch sees it's own BDPU's coming
from one port into another through the hub it's going to suss there is a
loop pretty quick.

Actaully, I did another test in the lab and the STP has nothing to do with
hubs, so BOTH switch ports were able to plug into both hub ports, no
problem. Now my next question is: Do I now have an aggregate bandwidth of
20mbs?

TIA!

Correct, so long as you have STP enabled you are ok.

Virtual Network Academy's

2000-07-27 Thread Phill Jolliffe

The below comment's reflect nothing but my own fanciful dreams and
ramblings.

Wouldn't it be cool if cisco was to setup virtual Network Academies. Racks
of equipment for people to perform labs on.

People going for their CCIE or CCNx could for free log onto to a console
server and play as if physical at the box's.  The equipment at cost would be
nothing to cisco and scripts could clean the boxes easily between sessions.
It's easily done, I've set similar things up so I could study from home.

Surly this would be good for cisco, more people with cisco skills means more
cisco kit being sold.

Or if cisco weren't up for it what about some people getting together and
forming a none profit org to do the same thing. 20 dollars per year member
ship fee. Even if you only got a 1000 people interested that'd be 2 to
get the basic kit / co-locations done. All we need is enough bandwidth for a
clean telnet session.


Anyway back to reality... must cut back on the caffeine

Re: CCDA 2.0 ?

2000-07-27 Thread keith wood

John,

Any cert you get is valid untill you have to recertify (rumoured to be 2
years - no official evidence yet).  Also the numbering is just so Cisco can
tell if you learned from the 'revised' material - it is not an indication of
a better or a higher level of qualification.

My advice to you is to study now and pass the exam.  If you are continuing
to CCDP then the CID exam is donkeys years out of date anyway - but there is
STILL not even a whisper of a beta exam to replace it, so it will probably
be at least another 12 months...

There have been posts on this group about the 'official' Cisco viewpoint on
the difference between the 1.0 and 2.0 qualifications so try and search the
archives (you have to do this from www.groupstudy.com).

As far as an employer is concerned they simply need a CCNA/CCDA/CCNP/CCDP
(sometimes only to fullfil their Cisco partner requirements).  Cisco do not
stipulate that they have to be either a 1.0 or a 2.0 (it doesnt matter).  As
such it should make no difference to Salary either...

Re: Last week for ACRC - Need Help

2000-07-27 Thread keith wood

Hey, dont stress about the exam.

If you have failed it twice then you already know what to expect as far as
difficulty level is concerned.  My advice to you (I failed twice also -
passed third time) is to RELAX.  Review carefully your exam failure reports
and see what areas you were weak in on both exams you failed.  Look at these
areas closer than the others.  Do not ignore the other sections all together
though as you will find you will simply score better in your weaker areas at
the expense of your better areas in the previous exams (I did this on my 2nd
exam).

Here are some pointers for you (perhaps teaching you what you already know -
sorry) -

1.  Get to the exam early so you can review your cram sheet
2.  Do NOT abbreviate any type in commands (ie: sh instead of show)
3.  If you genuinely dont know the correct answer then eliminate the
obviously wrong answers and guess from what is left.  Never leave a question
blank (I suspect the exam wont actually allow you to do that anyway - I have
never tried)
4.  Learn OSPF, EIGRP, Bridging and Access-lists well.  These should be the
'giveaway' marks as they are simply a matter of factual recall (not actually
applying your understanding of a topic).
5.  Dont stress...

I used the coriolis ACRC exam cram book for the 3rd attempt. Personally I
felt this was a brilliant book (the cram sheet especially helped as it is so
concise).  This exam is hard, treat it with the respect it deserves and you
will bag it.  Half of my problem was that after failing it twice my
self-confidence level was way down and this affected my attitude towards the
exam.  Recover your self esteem and anything is possible.

Good luck.

RE: Connecting Switches, hubs..

2000-07-27 Thread McCallum, Robert

So all in all what is trying to be said (I reckon) is NO you will not have
aggregated bandwidth as spanning tree will absolutely definitely shut down
one port.  If you say that spanning tree is off then lets take an example.
A pc sends out a unicast onto the hub.  That packet is then copied to every
port on that hub.  The switch is then left with two identical packets from
that pc.  What should it do with them forward both packets to the
destination (behave), hence spanning tree.

If you do as suggested have portfast on then you WILL create a loop.
(UNWISE)

You can do "set span" with catalyst 5k. Catalyst 2924 has different
command.. You have to insert following command to the interface, which
your monitor is connected to.

interface fastethernet 0/1
  port monitor FastEthernet 0/2

FastEthernet 0/2 is the monitored interface

SPAN Problem

2000-07-27 Thread Paul H

Hi Robert

2924s don't use set commands, they need to be put into global configuration  
mode (conf t), and then interface configuration mode (int fa0/X) to apply 
changes.  Its not too dissimilar to router interface command sets. ctrl-z 
exits config mode, and wr writes it away to nvram.

The set command from privileged exec will run an initial setup routine on 
the switch.

Hope that helps,

Paul

RE: Connecting Switches, hubs..

2000-07-27 Thread Paul H

The answer to this question as many have said is no.  The reason for this is 
that to aggregate the bandwidth the ports need to be in a channel, and this 
cannot be done across multiple blades in a 5509.  Ports to be channelled 
together need to be next to each other on the 55's, but on a 6500, they CAN 
be on seperate blades.

To judge by the offline and online replies this thread has gotten, far ore

The aforementioned individual though, prefers to huff and puff about how he

take any classes or that he doesn't have any cisco experience?] that he
passed the tests - thereby 'earning' the 'respected industry certifications'
of Cisco Certified Networking Associate and Cisco Certified Design
Associate. Did I mention that he didn't have any cisco experience?

HELL!!!

Routing Exam (640-503) with ACRC Course Attendance

Hi everyone,

My name is Thomas, I am a network engineer working for a consulting company
in Switzerland. After having read only for a couple of days, I would like to
start using the list actively.

I have failed my ACRC exam last Friday and because I was rather busy this
week, I have no chance of taking the test a second time before 1st August.
Now it is obviously going to be the version 2 Exams. Has anyone any
experience about taking the Routing Exam (640-503), after having attended
ACRC instead of BCSN. Which areas should I particularly focus on that
weren't covered that deeply in ACRC? Any books suggested?

Thanks very much for your help.

Re: Connecting Switches, hubs..

2000-07-27 Thread Marc Quibell

STP does not work with hubs. It only works in a completly switched network. 
Hubs do not run STP, hence the switch does not get BDPU's from the hub and 
does not recognize the non-STP connected ports in order to put the port into 
to a mode such as blocking mode.

That said, let's say you do have 2 switch ports (12) connected to a same 
hub. A broadcast occurs, which comes in on ports 12, but since a switched 
port does not return traffic to the source port, the broadcasts coming in on 
ports 12 will not get re-broadcasted back onto themselves...

Actually STP is important in your example.

if you have a switch with two ports connected to a hub, say ports 1 and
5.  A broadcast sent to port 5, will come back into the switch on port
1.  Since switches forward broadcasts, it will go back out port 5, and
back in port 1, and this will continue infinitly if STP is not enabled.

In multilayer switching networks, you can actually have your broadcasts
magnified, and things can get REAL ugly.

Just took this test today.  I heard from everyone that the switching exams
are incredibly difficult so I studied the hell out of the material, after
that the actual exam was a LOT easier than I expected.  I found the
routing 2.0 exam to be pretty diffucult and scored an 873, found switching
to be still difficult, but not really as bad as I thought, 846 score.  The
Boson tests are a lot harder than the actual exam, I highly recommend
using them as study material.  

My sole source of studying was the Cisco Press "Building Cisco Multilayer
Switched Networks", a lot of CCO online documentation, and a Cisco 2924XL
switch.  The Cisco Press book covers the entire exam pretty well.  

BCRAN is next for me, then CIT to follow shortly..

CCDA question-512 bit times

2000-07-27 Thread Randy Witt

I have a question regarding the round-trip propagation delay on an Ethernet network.

Page 123 of the Cisco Press "Designing Cisco Networks" book states:

"The most significant design rule for Ethernet is that the round-trip propagation 
delay in one collision domain must not exceed 512 bit times, which is a requirement 
for collision detection to work correctly."

With 100Mbps Ethernet, the maximum round-trip delay would be 5.12 seconds, resulting 
in a distance limitation of 205 meters.

I currently oversee a large flat network covering several miles in diameter.  All of 
the links between buildings are single-mode fiber links.  No routing is involved, 
everything is switched - one large broadcast domain.

How does the 512 bit time rule apply to fiber optic cabling?  I see on page 127 of the 
same book that the Round trip delay in bit times per meter for Cat5 cable is 1.112, 
whereas Fiber-optic cable it's 1.0.

I guess I'm having difficulty understanding how fiber can overcome the 512 bit-time 
rule and can have a much longer distance.

I do realize that this is not exactly a Cisco question, though covered on the DCN/CCDA 
material.  If someone could kindly refer me to any material that covers this topic, 
I'd appreciate it.

RE: Integrator wanted!

2000-07-27 Thread TKager

Respectfully,

I agree. When I first saw this post and the signiature I was in disbelief? A CCNA and 
a CCDA should know this material. It irked me because I worked hard to become 
certified and prefer not to see my certifications turn into paper. I also felt that 
this was Edgar's chance to cut his teeth and really learn something. This is an ideal 
situation, but he will learn very little having someone tell him how to do it. Play 
with it first. If then, you still have a problem, then post. I decided not to flame 
because I didn't want a backlash, or to make Edgar feel bad.

I really don't like to see people's signiature's read like a resume, especially after 
such a question. I am CCNP, CCDP, MCSE, MasterCNE, A+, Solaris 2.3, Firewall-1 
Administrator, Lucent Ctech cabling specialist. I don't want to put these in the 
signiature of every mail I send, as I don't want to come across as arrogant. I even 
feel uncomfortable mentioning them now, but feel the need, as my comments could 
otherwise be dismissed. Humbly, I have to say, although I passed the tests, I don't 
feel that I could reasonably wear all of these hats at the same time :). That's just 
another good reason not to put them in my signiature.

Food for thought,

Connections and states (was Re: a ccna question-help)

2000-07-27 Thread Howard C. Berkowitz

Dear group,

I find a confused question on an exam guide which is:
select the connect-oriented protocols:
1.ATM
2.TOKEN RING
3.FDDI
4.Ethernet
5.FrameRelay

anyone can help me select the correct answer?

thanks

dean


I'll try to do as you ask, help you select the answer, rather than 
give you the answer.

There is a subtle difference, which most exams don't observe, between 
connection orientation and statefulness.  In connection orientation, 
there is a distinct setup phase, after which the receiver has 
awareness of the sender. Resources are committed to that connection.

Stateful communications also describe a situation where the receiver 
has prior knowledge of the sender, but don't necessarily have an 
explicit setup function and don't necessarily commit resources.  In 
other words, all connection-oriented communications are stateful, but 
not all stateful protocols are connection-oriented.

Which of the protocols you list will work if the sender decides to 
send to a receiver that doesn't know about its existence?  Hint:  ATM 
was developed by the telephone industry, and Frame Relay was a 
specific ATM access protocol.  Can you simply pick up the telephone 
and start talking, or must you dial first?

You can just start sending on a LAN. There are a couple of subtle 
points that involve Token Ring and FDDI. Ethernet receivers 
definitely don't have prior awareness of the sender.  Some people 
might suggest, however, that a TR or FDDI receiver marking token bits 
is connection-oriented, because there is a receiver action.

No, I don't argue that.  What I will argue is that TR and FDDI 
_senders_ are stateful but not connection-oriented, as they need to 
be aware they have sent a frame in order to remove it from the ring. 
They also need to maintain state about whether they have or do not 
have the token.

Confusing things further, Logical Link Control type 2 (LLC2), which 
is most commonly seen over TR, definitely is connection-oriented. 
But "token ring" refers to the MAC and PHY protocols, not LLC.

 Or if cisco weren't up for it what about some people getting together and

RAS connection problems

2000-07-27 Thread Puckett, Larry

We use a PRI, Cisco Secure, and a Cisco 3620 for RAS connections. We have an
unusual problem in that only users in Bell South region have problems
dialing in. Many others have no problems getting connected around the
country on other local carriers. The symptoms are variable but most
consistent is that during the hand shake the line will get disconnected and
a recorded message from telco will say check the number and dial again. Has
anybody else experienced this? Did you find a resolution?

correct.

 
 That said, let's say you do have 2 switch ports (12) connected to a same 
 hub. A broadcast occurs, which comes in on ports 12, but since a switched 
 port does not return traffic to the source port, the broadcasts coming in on 
 ports 12 will not get re-broadcasted back onto themselves...
 

but broadcasts going out port 1 will still goto port 2 (which isn't
itself), and vice versa.  With no STP, this would create looping.

 Actually STP is important in your example.
 
 if you have a switch with two ports connected to a hub, say ports 1 and
 5.  A broadcast sent to port 5, will come back into the switch on port
 1.  Since switches forward broadcasts, it will go back out port 5, and
 back in port 1, and this will continue infinitly if STP is not enabled.
 
 In multilayer switching networks, you can actually have your broadcasts
 magnified, and things can get REAL ugly.

Bandwidth reservation

2000-07-27 Thread Piatnitchi Cristian

Hi all

I am faced with the following request:

I have to setup a proxy/cahe server behind a firewall. I have to set-up
bandwidth limitations for users. Let's say 40% for common users and 60% for
IT and Management. All users will go through proxy machine for ftp, http,
socks. Proxy has 2 IP addresses and each of them having assigned a class of
users. (Proxy runs 2 instances with different ports, IPs and access lists
for each of them). The traffic goes out through the PIX using two different
external IPs. The problem is the Proxy can't make bandwidth
allocation/reservation. I will try to do that on an external Cisco router
(2600). How do I do that ?

Can anybody give some ideas ? I am confused by QoS docs. Any help docs or
links ? 

Thanks in advance
Cristian Piatnitchi

RE: CCDA question-512 bit times

2000-07-27 Thread Steve Brokaw

Well, I have a different question that kinda goes along here.  If you are in a 
switched environment, i.e. dedicated bandwidth per port, how can you have a collision 
at all?  To me it seems (and Radia Perlmann touches on this in her book but doesn't 
give any explanation) that if there is no chance for a collision (switched 
environment) then why a distance limitation?  I'm sure there are some other physics 
factors that would limit distance but would they be the same as the distance required 
to detect a collision?

Subject: CCDA question-512 bit times


I have a question regarding the round-trip propagation delay on an Ethernet network.

Page 123 of the Cisco Press "Designing Cisco Networks" book states:

"The most significant design rule for Ethernet is that the round-trip propagation 
delay in one collision domain must not exceed 512 bit times, which is a requirement 
for collision detection to work correctly."

With 100Mbps Ethernet, the maximum round-trip delay would be 5.12 seconds, resulting 
in a distance limitation of 205 meters.

I currently oversee a large flat network covering several miles in diameter.  All of 
the links between buildings are single-mode fiber links.  No routing is involved, 
everything is switched - one large broadcast domain.

How does the 512 bit time rule apply to fiber optic cabling?  I see on page 127 of the 
same book that the Round trip delay in bit times per meter for Cat5 cable is 1.112, 
whereas Fiber-optic cable it's 1.0.

I guess I'm having difficulty understanding how fiber can overcome the 512 bit-time 
rule and can have a much longer distance.

I do realize that this is not exactly a Cisco question, though covered on the DCN/CCDA 
material.  If someone could kindly refer me to any material that covers this topic, 
I'd appreciate it.

Re: CCDA question-512 bit times

2000-07-27 Thread Michael Fountain

Fibre doesn't actually break the 512 bit-time rule.  You still need to keep 
your network under 512 bit-times from worst-case station to station.

Fibre can have the longer lengths because it doesn't sucumb to attenuation 
as fast as copper.  The differences in propegation time between copper and 
fibre are very slight.  And, if you didn't have to worry about attenuation 
you could run 412 meters on fibre and 370 meters on copper.

Take a look at your network, find the two stations that are seperated by the 
most cable and devices, and then follow the fomula in the book, and see what 
sort of number you come up with.

If you think it is completely off, send a little ascii art picture showing 
what cable lengths and devices are in there.

RE: Virtual Network Academy's

2000-07-27 Thread Zolani Matebese

HI,

you may actually have hit on a pretty good idea, if we formed a vir-coop we
could all pitch in and get some cool equipment and share the costs and
access. How about giving it a go, if we got 20 people (or more perhaps)
involved and we all put in an initial lump sum of $500 say.., we could look
at a very nice lab setup. It would probably have to be based in someone's
house or garage in the u.s. (can't be anywhere else cos of shipping issues)
but I don't see a problem with that. I personally am really interested so
anyone can feel free to mail me on this and we can get something set up.

 It's easily done, I've set similar things up so I could study from home.
 
 Surly this would be good for cisco, more people with cisco skills means
more
 cisco kit being sold.
 
 Or if cisco weren't up for it what about some people getting together and
 forming a none profit org to do the same thing. 20 dollars per year member

 get the basic kit / co-locations done. All we need is enough bandwidth for

Re: 2 Connections between hub and switch

2000-07-27 Thread Marc Quibell

Bill, thanks for the insight. See comments below..

What you have stated above is not entirely true.  Yes a switch does not 
place traffic back on a port it just received it from, but the traffic on 
port 1 WILL be placed on port 2 and vice-versa.

Yes. I see your point and I agree. What we have here is a broadcast storm.

Also, with having 2 connections to  a hub, the switch will send BPDU's 
 down port 1 and port 2, BPDU's from port 1 will be returned to the 
 switch on port 2 and BPDU's from 2 returned on port 1.  Once the switch 
sees it's own BPDU's it will kick off STP and if you have default settings 
on the switch, port 2 will be blocked.

I think the only thing that will put a port into blocking mode is when it 
detects a loop with another bridge/switch. I have default settings and the 
switch does not block a port, so what you stated-did not happen. But it will 
block one when another switch is connected the same way. But, not with a 
hub. I think if a switch sees it's own BPDUs it drops or ignores them.

Your statement about a Hub not sending BPDU's is correct.  It is the 
 switch's BPDU's that you need to watch out for.

 Telnet requires layer4 to be up.  CDP requires a layer2 that uses SNAP.

 What sounds like whats going on, is a half-opened connection.  Does the

RE: 2 Connections between hub and switch

2000-07-27 Thread BillSwedberg

I would look to make sure that both connections are up and working.  Are the switch 
ports in the same VLAN?

If you have two ports connected to the same hub you will create a loop and the switch 
SHOULD put one port in blocking.  If you do "sho spantree VLAN#" one of the ports 
should be blocked.

Your first inline comment states that "WE have a LOOP".  If a switch were to ignore 
it's own BPDU's that it sees on a different port, then it would be ignoring the fact 
that there is a loop in the architecture and break all STP rules.  It is the switches 
job to detect this and break the loop.  I would double check your set up and make sure 
things are really connected the way you think.

Please, somebody tell me I am wrong, but it goes against everything I have learned.

Bill, thanks for the insight. See comments below..

What you have stated above is not entirely true.  Yes a switch does not
place traffic back on a port it just received it from, but the traffic on
port 1 WILL be placed on port 2 and vice-versa.

Yes. I see your point and I agree. What we have here is a broadcast storm.

Also, with having 2 connections to  a hub, the switch will send BPDU's
 down port 1 and port 2, BPDU's from port 1 will be returned to the
 switch on port 2 and BPDU's from 2 returned on port 1.  Once the switch
sees it's own BPDU's it will kick off STP and if you have default settings
on the switch, port 2 will be blocked.

I think the only thing that will put a port into blocking mode is when it
detects a loop with another bridge/switch. I have default settings and the
switch does not block a port, so what you stated-did not happen. But it will
block one when another switch is connected the same way. But, not with a
hub. I think if a switch sees it's own BPDUs it drops or ignores them.

Your statement about a Hub not sending BPDU's is correct.  It is the
 switch's BPDU's that you need to watch out for.

 Subject: CCDA question-512 bit times
 
 
 I have a question regarding the round-trip
 propagation delay on an Ethernet network.
 
 Page 123 of the Cisco Press "Designing Cisco
 Networks" book states:
 
 "The most significant design rule for Ethernet is
 that the round-trip propagation delay in one
 collision domain must not exceed 512 bit times,
 which is a requirement for collision detection to
 work correctly."
 
 With 100Mbps Ethernet, the maximum round-trip delay
 would be 5.12 seconds, resulting in a distance
 limitation of 205 meters.
 
 I currently oversee a large flat network covering
 several miles in diameter.  All of the links between
 buildings are single-mode fiber links.  No routing
 is involved, everything is switched - one large
 broadcast domain.
 
 How does the 512 bit time rule apply to fiber optic
 cabling?  I see on page 127 of the same book that
 the Round trip delay in bit times per meter for Cat5
 cable is 1.112, whereas Fiber-optic cable it's 1.0.
 
 I guess I'm having difficulty understanding how
 fiber can overcome the 512 bit-time rule and can
 have a much longer distance.
 
 I do realize that this is not exactly a Cisco
 question, though covered on the DCN/CCDA material. 
 If someone could kindly refer me to any material
 that covers this topic, I'd appreciate it.

not

subject/protocol/scenario is on the lab, can you discuss it freely?

I tried some lab speculation and reprinting from a boot camp when I first 
became a list member 7-8 months ago. After calls of NDA defiance
and "Cisco proctors read this list" type stuff, I backed off. I'm ready for 
another go if you guys are. When you think you have it figured out their

Re: Connecting Switches, hubs..

Yes, I think what you're trying to suggest is EtherChannel. Easily done on
two Cisco switches that support it, but not on the subject of hub-to-switch
connectivity. The question was to go over any reasons why the hub scenario
does not work. The answer is: Broadcast storms. THanks

Marc


""Paul H"" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message
[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
 The answer to this question as many have said is no.  The reason for this
is
 that to aggregate the bandwidth the ports need to be in a channel, and
this
 cannot be done across multiple blades in a 5509.  Ports to be channelled
 together need to be next to each other on the 55's, but on a 6500, they
CAN
 be on seperate blades.

 Paul



 I have a simple question, and one which I cannot readily answer at this
 time. Can I safely connect TWO switch ports from a Cisco 5509 (two
different
 switch blades) to a hub to increase the hub's crossconnection bandwidth,
 without having a looping problem? The hub is actually a DEC multi-blade,
 with a swithced backplane. The hub is also connect on two different
blades,
 but the same backplane. TIA!

 btw, I have already done this and I figured if spanning tree found a
looping
 problem, it wouldv'e set one of the ports to a non-forwarding state..

you may actually have hit on a pretty good idea, if we formed a vir-coop we
could all pitch in and get some cool equipment and share the costs and
access. How about giving it a go, if we got 20 people (or more perhaps)
involved and we all put in an initial lump sum of $500 say.., we could look
at a very nice lab setup. It would probably have to be based in someone's
house or garage in the u.s. (can't be anywhere else cos of shipping issues)
but I don't see a problem with that. I personally am really interested so
anyone can feel free to mail me on this and we can get something set up.

  Trunking allows you to advertise Vlans in the same switch block to other
  switches. Switch blocks could have port densities into the thousands and
  these could be broken down into more vlans than you have ports on a
single
  switch, so that is why you have more vlans supported than ports on a

 I am trying to understand how a Catalyst 1912 or a 1924 can
support
 64
 VLAN's. If each port in a switch is configured for only 1 VLAN,
then
  the
 maximum number of VLAN's should be determined by the number of
 ports,
 right??
 Also, how does a Catalyst 5500 switch support 1005 VLAN's? Does it
  have
 10005 ports at the back of the switch?
 Please advise.
 Thank you.
 Kind regards,

RE: Cisco VPN Client (off topic question)

2000-07-27 Thread dfoss

With IPSec being a relatively immature standard there is a chance that it
will work that way but a better chance that it won't until the next PIX
software upgrade comes out.  I believe you'd have a better chance making it
work with L2PTPP.  It's an interesting experiment thoughlet us know if
it works!

I haven't tried to install the VPN client on 2000... but the reason for that
is because 2000 supports IPSec already.  No need for the client, just set it
up on the box, no additional software should be required.

I've tried installed it on Windows 2000 , even though the system
requirements say it has to be Win9x or WinNT 4.0. I was just curious has
anyone got IPsec to work with Windows 2000 connecting to a Cisco PIX
Firewall? Any feedback would be appreciated.

Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2000 18:10:19 +0400

Hi all

I am faced with the following request:

I have to setup a proxy/cahe server behind a firewall. I have to set-up
bandwidth limitations for users. Let's say 40% for common users and 60% for
IT and Management. All users will go through proxy machine for ftp, http,
socks. Proxy has 2 IP addresses and each of them having assigned a class of
users. (Proxy runs 2 instances with different ports, IPs and access lists
for each of them). The traffic goes out through the PIX using two different
external IPs. The problem is the Proxy can't make bandwidth
allocation/reservation. I will try to do that on an external Cisco router
(2600). How do I do that ?

Can anybody give some ideas ? I am confused by QoS docs. Any help docs or
links ?

Thanks in advance
Cristian Piatnitchi

I think what you need is queing. Not sure whether it would be weighted fair, 
priority, or custom, but I'm only a CCNA. Good question for me to know.

How do I Set the ARP timer on a Cisco 675

2000-07-27 Thread Peace, Jeremiah J (Jeremiah)

Hello all,
Just a quick question.

I have a Cisco 675 clam-shell style DSL "Modem"/nat/dhcp/router
and just for sheits and giggles I decided to run a packet grouper
on my local Ethernet side of this DSL modem.  I noticed
that the 675 will send a ARP request every Second, and 
my machines will respond back every 4-5 seconds. Now, this is not
a huge thing, but I was wondering if anyone knew how to set
the arp timers in that crazy broadband operations system.

Thanx

 HI,

 you may actually have hit on a pretty good idea, if we formed a vir-coop
we
 could all pitch in and get some cool equipment and share the costs and
 access. How about giving it a go, if we got 20 people (or more perhaps)
 involved and we all put in an initial lump sum of $500 say.., we could
look
 at a very nice lab setup. It would probably have to be based in someone's
 house or garage in the u.s. (can't be anywhere else cos of shipping
issues)
 but I don't see a problem with that. I personally am really interested so
 anyone can feel free to mail me on this and we can get something set up.

Re: Integrator wanted!

2000-07-27 Thread Donald B Johnson Jr

Could not agree more, as someone who holds numerous certs and is in a
position of hiring people a feel that certification is a major part of my
descision process. But this is not a job interview it is a discussion group,
with much phenomenal talent and many certs. So why do we advertise them when
we sign, who cares!!! I told edgar that he should connect the cables and
turn the equipment on. That was the best advice or direction you can give a
budding NE, play with it, You know!! For that advice edgar sent me a Flame
E-mail,  Edgar told me he worked with people like me, I didn't know what
that means. No problem!!! I don't work with people like Edgar either,
because if someone told me they were a CCNA/CCDA and then they wanted to be
spoon feed work I taught my 6 year old son to do, I'd have to let him go.
But if someone told me he was a CCNA/CCDA and had worked at connecting those
three devices till midnight without success, I would work along with that
person the next night to midnight, cause ya gotta love it. See the
difference edgar. Most people here don't have a personal router to play with
and all they get is time at work to use equipment.
So let me give you this advice again in open group, Plug it in and turn it
on and start to play, when you hit a snag, everyone and anyone in the group
will help.

on-hook, off-hook, etc.? Just wondering. I'm a data person, not voice,

 Could not agree more, as someone who holds numerous certs and is in a
 position of hiring people a feel that certification is a major part of my
 descision process. But this is not a job interview it is a discussion
group,
 with much phenomenal talent and many certs. So why do we advertise them
when
 we sign, who cares!!! I told edgar that he should connect the cables and
 turn the equipment on. That was the best advice or direction you can give
a
 budding NE, play with it, You know!! For that advice edgar sent me a Flame
 E-mail,  Edgar told me he worked with people like me, I didn't know what
 that means. No problem!!! I don't work with people like Edgar either,
 because if someone told me they were a CCNA/CCDA and then they wanted to
be
 spoon feed work I taught my 6 year old son to do, I'd have to let him go.
 But if someone told me he was a CCNA/CCDA and had worked at connecting
those
 three devices till midnight without success, I would work along with that
 person the next night to midnight, cause ya gotta love it. See the
 difference edgar. Most people here don't have a personal router to play
with
 and all they get is time at work to use equipment.
 So let me give you this advice again in open group, Plug it in and turn it
 on and start to play, when you hit a snag, everyone and anyone in the
group
 will help.

Reverse Telnet

2000-07-27 Thread Cesar D'Suze Scott


Hi guys..

I have a problem with a 2511 using reverse telnet.

When I want to access the console of some routers, one of them (the one in 
line 1) gets connected, but the other ones not.

I always get a Connection Refused by remote host message. I've swapped the 
cables in two of the routers console, and I can still conect just through 
the 2001 port but not in 2002.

Has anybody had any similar problem?. I've tried to clear line several 
times but it doesn't help.

I'm sending the 2511 config. It's fairly simple.

Thanks a lot.

TEI SAPI

2000-07-27 Thread Ole Drews Jensen

I had a question in my study guide about what the combination of TEI  SAPI
gives you.

My answer was 'A unique datalink layer address', but the answer in the book
said 'A unique network layer address'.

I had the understanding that this was info in the address field of the LAPD
protocol (Q.921) which is operating on the ISDN D-channel in the Datalink
layer.

Who's right, and if I'm wrong - could someone please explain why?

I hope this is a typo in the book, because just when you think you know what
the  it's all about, you get thrown a "No, you're wrong" in the face...

Thanks in advance,

Ole

P.S. Besides the few typo's I've seen, so far this BCRAN book (from McGraw
Hill) is excellent

Re: Clear channel question? -- A much more confusing explanation.....grin

2000-07-27 Thread Peace, Jeremiah J (Jeremiah)

Conceptually ESF or SF looks like this:

The ESF or SF "Frame" is 193 bits, with (8bits*24channels)192 bits of DS0
channels
and 1 frame bit.
   [ 1bit frame(for esf/sf)][8bit DS0-1][8bit DS0-2].[8bit DS0-24]

Keep in mind that a DS1/T1 is synchronies, and as such there is no
start/stop bits.
So, the clock uses the Framing bit and a specific repeating pattern 
(001011 in the case of ESF) to keep it's clock in sync, and to make sure
it is looking at the correct 193bit frame.  It turns out that there are so
many 
bits available, ((193bit frame)/(T1 rate of 1.544Mbps) = 8Kbps Frame bits)),
that you
can provide much more than just clock sync.  So, ATT updated supper frame, 
to ESF(extended super frame) to include a CRC check, Error count, And
maintenance 
channel all in this 8kbps frame/sync channel.  

Hope this helps.

Oh, one last thing. If you purchase a Clear channel/common channel/ or
Robbed bit
DS1/T1 from your provider you will still need choose framing and Line
coding.

The choices for framing are: D4(or SF),  ESF. The best choice being ESF.
now line coding choices are AMI/ZCS or B8ZS (chose B8ZS for ISDN-PRI or
Data!)

These have to do with how the Physical T1 places bits on the wire. AMI
stands
for Alternate Mark Inversion with Zero Code Substitution, and B8ZS stands
for
Bypolar 8bits with Zero Substitution.  Basically, most digital signals are
DCvlts to
begin with, DC is extremely susceptible to noise. So what happens is you
must 
alternate the way you express a Bit onto the wire. So that the first "1" bit
is +15vlts(for
instance) with the second "1"bit is -15vlts, and every "0"bit is 0vlts
relative to carrier.

Now, in a synchronies environment two many 0's in a row, will cause the
clock to "Slip",
and so something must be done. AMI/ZCS, just places a 1 in there somewhere.
This 
could cause CRC  failures in TCP/IP as data is "changed" in-transit.  B8ZS
on the 
other hand changes the way that the Bits are expressed, replacing 8 0's in a
row with
a +15 1bit, -15 1bit, a 0vlt 0bit, -15 1bit, and +15 1bit. Causing a
"Bipolar error" that
the end point recognizes and re-places with 8 0's. There is of-course more
to it than
that but that is the general concept.

Hope this helps.

Priscilla,


As you mentioned that the robbed bits in the super
frames are only for voice signals, does this mean, if
I am only transfering data, I should tell me carrier
not use the robbed bits?

Yes.

Still a bit confused about
the clear channels, does this mean, there is not bits
robbed in this channel?

Yes

are they still using ESF?

Sort of. I think technically the term "ESF" defines more than just the 
robbed bits, but in real-world practice ESF tends to refer to a channel 
where bits are being robbed. You'd have to read the small print in the 
documentation of the device you're configuring and/or talk to your carrier 
to be sure about how the term is used.

if
it is esf, by default every 6, 12, 18 and 24 bit are
robbed, if these bit are part of 64k and they are
robbed, how can we still have 64k?


You don't get 64 Kbps if you're configured for robbed-bit signalling.

If you're only sending data, and no voice, tell your carrier not to rob 
bits. Ask for a "clear channel" or "transparent channel." In this case, 
each DS0 is a full 64 Kbps. The least significant bit of each DS0 in frames 
6, 12, 18, and 24 is no longer robbed.

You will still use the framing bit that is specified by either the ESF or 
SF format, however. But this framing bit is the 193rd bit of each frame and 
is not part of any of the DS0s, so there's no robbing going on.

ESF says to look at the 193rd bit in frames 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20 and 24 for 
the framing pattern of 001011. This same bit is also used for diagnostics 
and a block check field. The diagnostic function looks at the 193rd bit in 
every other frame, and the block check field looks at the 193rd bit in the 
2nd, 6th, 10th, 14th, 18th, and 22nd fields.

It's all very ugly and hard to explain without a white board and some 
actual product or carrier service documentation to look at. ;-)

Re: Reverse Telnet

2000-07-27 Thread William Swedberg

I suggest placing the command "no exec" on the lines
connected to the other routers.  This tells the port
that if it sees a charactor to not try and execute it.
 This will cause a port to go off into the ozone.  As
for the port, if you do a show line, is there an "*"
next to the line in question?  Make sure you are
clearing the correct line. Also try a "disconnect".

Re: 64 VLAN's on a Cat 1912 switch?

2000-07-27 Thread Karen . Young


The big reason that the switch needs to be able to _support_ 64 VLANs is
VTP.

If you have a number of 1912's acting as VTP clients to, say, a Cat 4006
with 35 VLANs configured then the client switches need to be able to
support information for at least 35 VLANs. This is irrespective of whether
the smaller switch actually has enough ports to host all those VLANs. Even
if all of the switch's ports are assigned to a single VLAN, it will still
carry the config info for _all_ the VLANs in the VTP domain.

Hi,
I am trying to understand whether the Catalyst 1912 switch supports upto 64

VLAN's(meaning connected to other vlan's) or you can create upto 64 VLAN's
on this switch. It has only 12 ports. If 1 port can only belong to 1 vlan
at
one time and each port is mapped to 1 mac address, then how come I can
create upto 64 vlan's on this switch.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Kind regards,

Re: Connecting Switches, hubs..

2000-07-27 Thread Karen . Young


Since we seen to be doing the Spanning Tree simulations today... Imagine
what happens when you have two instances of STP running, one per VLAN on
VLAN 100 and VLAN 200, and then hook both VLAN 100 and VLAN 200 to the same
hub. :-)

Have fun!  evil grin

 Hubs do not run STP, hence the switch does not get BDPU's from the hub

into
 to a mode such as blocking mode.

correct.


 That said, let's say you do have 2 switch ports (12) connected to a same

 hub. A broadcast occurs, which comes in on ports 12, but since a
switched
 port does not return traffic to the source port, the broadcasts coming in
on
 ports 12 will not get re-broadcasted back onto themselves...


but broadcasts going out port 1 will still goto port 2 (which isn't
itself), and vice versa.  With no STP, this would create looping.

 Actually STP is important in your example.
 
 if you have a switch with two ports connected to a hub, say ports 1 and
 5.  A broadcast sent to port 5, will come back into the switch on port
 1.  Since switches forward broadcasts, it will go back out port 5, and
 back in port 1, and this will continue infinitly if STP is not enabled.
 
 In multilayer switching networks, you can actually have your broadcasts
 magnified, and things can get REAL ugly.

CCDA is a tough exam!!!!

2000-07-27 Thread Lori S Carter

Took the CCDA exam today and passed! I only used two sources, Top Down Network Design 
and study guides from www.ccxxproductions.bigstep.com. Study hard for this exam, 
you'll need it! Lots of weird questions and three case studies. There were 72 
questions and I had two hours to complete it.

Re: console password?

2000-07-27 Thread Michael Fountain

You almost got it.  Once you define the password, you have to tell the 
router to request it.  Try this -
  line con 0
 password pwd
 login

that should do it.
