Re: Goal to CCIE by Self-Study
Passed 350-014 (CCIE-Design Qualification) today, 100 choice problems, passing score is 60%, some problems are very hard, some easy. Not got a very high score, however, I passed it. Although want to try 350-004 very much, but the Cisco gears in my lab drained all my money. Very happy and easy now, want to share my joy and experience with all of you. Takes more than 6 hours, 6 days, 6 weeks, even more than 6 months, I finished the written certification, here is my test history. 640-407 (CCNA 1.0) Nov 1999 CCNA 640-441 (DCN 1.0) Dec 1999 CCDA 640-405 (CMTD 8.0) Jan 2000 640-403 (ACRC 11.3)Feb 2000 640-025 (CID 3.0) Mar 2000 640-404 (CLSC 1.0) Apr 2000 CCDP 351-014 (CCIE Design Beta) Apr 2000 failure 640-440 (CIT 4.0) May 2000 CCNP 641-647 (Voice 2.0 Beta) Jul 2000 640-447 (Voice 1.0)Aug 2000 CCNP+Voice 640-442 (MCNS 2.0) Aug 2000 CCNP+Security 640-446 (ATM 2.1) Sep 2000 CCNP+ATM 350-001 (CCIE R/S Written) Sep 2000 350-014 (CCIE Design Written) Passed all tests at the first try except 351-014, it's not easy. And all I have done is to study the books, find complement material in Internet, in Cisco Documentation CDROM, no extra simulated problems need, just like someone said, if known the answer already, who cares the questions. It good for me to have something to do, especially reserch the internetwork technology. I make it, and you can make too, not too hard. Best Regards for everyone. See you Networkers 2000 Beijing.

BSCN OSPF multi-area...summarized from Eric McMasters
I finally got it. It helps if you draw a picture of what is happening. Below is a message from Eric McMasters author of Routing Exam Cram. He summarized it for me. I hope this helps someone. BTW, 100% positive some part of this will show on the test. Thanks again Eric!!! Look at it as a big picture. First you have your AS. Within this AS you have multiple areas. Your intra-area routes are routes that are only passed within a single area. Intra-area routes (LSA's 1 and 2) are the only routes that are allowed in a totally stubby area. To gain access outside of the area in a totally stubby setup routers have to use a default route from the ABR. Intra-area routes do not go beyond the boundaries of the area itself. Inter-area routes (LSA's 3 and 4) advertise routes outside of the area. This allows a router in area 1 to know about a route in area 4. These inter-area routes do not go beyond the boundaries of the AS. Now your external routes (LSA 5) are routes that come from an external AS or another protocol that is being redistributed into OSPF. These routes are propagated across the entire network unless a stub, totally stub, or nssa are configured. If this is the case the type 5 LSA's are stopped at the ABR. Even by creating a "redistribute static subnets" or a "redistribute connected" command under the OSPF process these routes will be treated as External routes (Type 5 LSA's) and will be propagated across the entire network. Now for a brief breakdown of the stub, totally stubby, and nssa areas and how they operate. With a stub area you are allowing inter and intra area routes (Type 1-4 LSA's). This will allow a router to know of a specific route in another area along with specific routes in his own area. These are good because it blocks Type 5 LSA's at the ABR, which are always flooded across a network. For a router to gain access to route via another process or a route that is being redistributed it will need to use a default route that is provided by the ABR. With a totally stubby area you are limiting the types of routes that are propagating the area. In this case you are only allowing intra-area routes (Types 1-2 LSA's). This is means that routers only know of routes within their specific area. If they need to get to another area they will have to use the default route that is provided by the ABR. Now the most confusing is the NSSA or Not-So-Stubby-Area. According to the rules of OSPF an area can not be a stub or totally stub area if a router in that area is an ASBR (Autonomous System Boundary Router). An ASBR is a router that connects two different AS's or a router that is "redistributing" anything under the OSPF process. You have the option of creating a NSSA, which is similar in function to a stub area in that it allows Type 1-4 LSA's, but it converts the Type 5 LSA's that are being created by the ASBR into Type 7 LSA's. The Type 7 LSA's are converted back to Type 5's at the ABR. The other option is to create a totally NSSA which is similar to the totally stubby area, but only allows Type 1-2, and 7 LSA's. I know that this is probably more that what you were looking for as far as an answer to your question, but knowing which LSA's are used for what makes the whole OSPF process easier to understand. For more on LSA's and OSPF in general I would recommend that you go to the Cisco website and do a search on "OSPF Design Guide". This design guide has some very useful information and can help in understanding OSPF operation. You can also do a search on "OSPF LSA types" and find out more on the OSPF LSA operation and functions. Hope that I didn't overload you and that you found some of this information useful. Thanks. **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.

Re: Layer3 switching - More Clarification
first of alla switch will always switch faster than a router since the router has a processor and a switch has a ASIC specific for switching. now a router not only switches the packets but will process it for access restrictions and queueing. thus slowing things down compared switches that perform none of this. sure remove all these aspects and you come closer to a switch, but remember the router still has more overhead to deal within keeping routing tables up to date.
