The guy who was to be my boss wanted to hire me. There had to be unanimous agreement with all the people from the tech interview though. One guy said he didn't think I'd be good for the job. Then he offered me a job in his department instead. Which smellled funny to me. And the whole reason I'd been so psyched about the interview was because of my first meeting with my potential new boss, which went exceedingly well. We could communicate very rapidly, there was an instant rapport. BUT, at the end of the interview I explained to him how in my last interview the hiring manager had told me he would call me personally either way the next day and instead I got an email two days later from some office flunky. And how that had really bothered me. He assured me he'd call the next day, no bs. He didn't. People. Whatcha gonna do? I did eventually get a job.

Subnetting questions
Hi Friends In a subnetting scenario, say for example they say that "Configure the ethernet network so that it can support 16 hosts." Do they mean 16 hosts including all the IP's for the routers in the network, or does it mean 16 host IP's in addition to the router IP's.

Re: IDB
IDBs provide a central location in memory for storing information about network interface cards for use by the interface driver code. They are able to represent all knds of interfaces including subinterfaces.The IDB data stuctures also use alot of memory so Cisco has limited them to 300 per router. Each physical whether it is configured or not or if it is up or shut uses one IDB.It works the same for the subinterfaces, each subinterfaces gets one IDB. e.g one interface has 5 subinterfaces so there are 6 IDBs allocated. Subinterfaces use IDBs but FR PVCs don't.If a FR has 10 PVCs and does not use any subinterfaces it uses a single IDB. Another example:1 interface with 2 subinterfaces each having 3 PVCs only use 3 IDBs. Hope This helps >From: "John W. Redmond" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: "John W.

CCNP Question
Hello Friends, Hopefully this question won't be considered too basic for you folks, but I need some serious advice on hardware necessary to achieve my CCNP status by next winter. I have pretty much been given this time frame by my girlfriend as she has become very homesick and wishes to move back there no later than end of 2001. Problem is, I currently live in a very technically rich job market and will be moving to an area that is not. I feel that to at least maintain my current salary once I move, I will need to have my CCNP completed before anyone in my new home market would consider paying me what I currently make. What is the absolute minimum hardware requirement necessary not only to get past the exams but also to give me hands on experience to get a good salary offer? By the way, I'm not interested in just the money but would love to become more knowledgeable with networking so please don't think that I'm only looking to become a "paper CCNP".

Re: Connecting to Console port (How to issue a BREAK with minthyperterminal)
Oh dear, not the hyperterminal thread again, this was my first thought as i have read the original question. I agree, there are many execellent terminal emulators out there. But just imagine that you go to a customer and have to use one of their computers to rescue a router. Wanna ask the customer to download xxx-term that you can work with ? Chances are very good that hyperterminal is on the customers computer, so we should know how to use it ... To issue a break signal with genuine Hyperterminal you can use this method: Connect as usual to the router and set a very low baudrate in hyperterm. I use 110 as example. Now just press a few different keys repeatedly. Thies issued the break signal. Now switch back to 9600 bits per second and continue the usual procedure. hth Reinhold -- Reinhold Fischer [EMAIL PROTECTED] CCNP/SunCSA/HP Certified Consultant for Network Management TechRec wrote: >Hi > >I've heard that HyperTerminal is not good for connecting to the console port >on Cisco routers.

Re: Connecting to Console port - recover to factory settings?
Hey everyone, I've been having a problem with a 4000M. I was working on recovering a password and when I rebooted I just got screen garbage (diamonds, squares, squigglies, etc.). Now, while some people may find this more aesthetically pleasing than the Cisco IOS, it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I have a feeling that somehow I inadvertently changed the baud rate during my attempted password recovery. Unfortunately, this lab router was just write erased, so I can't connect to any network interfaces. So, I pose these three questions: 1) Is there any mildly easy way to reset a 4000M back to factory state (9600 8N1 or 8N2 - depending on documentation) 2) Am I going to have to sit and try all the possible terminalspeed/databits/parity/stopbits combos until I stumble upon it? 3) Does anyone have another suggestion?

CCIE Written Passed
Hi, guys and gals! Miss me while I was gone? :-> I am quite pleased and very proud to announce that I passed my CCIE written this morning. I won't bore you with my score, let alone the number of questions on the test and the passing score. This sort of thing information is available elsewhere. My own score is irrelevant, except to say that it wasn't even close. ;-> All in all, this was a very good test, in my opinion. There were a couple of questions that might be considered ambiguous. There was certainly a bit of whimsy to be found. I nearly broke out laughing at a couple of the totally discongrous things I saw. I have to wonder how many test takers even realize the humor that is to be found in a couple of places? :-> In terms of preparation, let me state that in my experience, there is NO substitute for Jeff Doyle's TCP/IP Routing, nor Bassam Halabi's Internet Routing Architectures. I also used the CCIE Exam Cram book, with good effect. Heresy as it is to suggest this, I believe that in terms of pure test preparation, that with regards to Radia Perlman's Interconnections, one might find better ways to spend one's time. ( this is NOT to say there is no value to be found, NOR is it to say that one should NOT read the book. It is only to say that in terms of pure preparation for the CCIE written as I saw it, there are better sources available ) I also took advantage of a number of study materials freely available from CCO, CCPrep, and our own groupstudy web site. The latter two sites have some token ring / RIF information that was invaluable. I also spent a LOT of time with the materials one can obtain by subscribing to Certification Zone ( disclosure - I have been compensated for services rendered to Certification Zone ) If I were to tabulate, I would say that the plurality of questions involved OSPF and bridging of various kinds. There was far less BGP than I would have expected, given what the Blueprint describes. In terms of a couple of areas, such as router operation, protocol behavior fundamentals, and so on, that Exam Cram proved to be quite useful. One might consider investing in this one even at the CCNA level, and growing into it. Also, when you read my signature, your will understand that I am embarrassed to report that my worst score by far fell under the category of security Lastly, I wanted to mention that I saw several questions on my test that I have also seen posed here on Groupstudy - almost word for word, and right down to some very accurate representations of the diagrams. Some of you bad boys and girls have been violating the NDA. Shame on you ;-> I am aware that Nigel, Bernard, and the other Chuck will be taking their written's over the next couple of days. It is definitely looking like the class of 2001 is shaping up quite well. Hey, guys, I look forward to seeing your announcements of your own success Monday and Tuesday. There is no doubt in my mind. If I can do it, you certainly can. Just don't outsmart yourselves. Always THINK! :-> I kinda look at it this way. I began the climb to Everest at the shoreline of India. CCNA/CCDA = Delhi. CCNP/CCDP = Katmandu. CCIE Written = Base Camp 18,000 feet. The rest of the climb looks real steep, real tough. But I can look back along my route and see that I have come a long way. And like the Little Engine of lore, I Think I Can! There are too many of you who are entitled to and deserving of my thanks for your advice, your wisdom, your good humor, your knowledge. I can only say that it is indeed my privilege to know and associate with each and every one of you. See you all up on the top of Everest!

As many of > you know and the others will one day learn, money does matter ! This is long, but trying to give good advice. Anyone can feel free to make corrections to what I am saying. I would suggest: AGS+ w/4 serials at least or 2520 (frame relay cloud) 2501 2502 2503 2504 NT-1 Actual ISDN Line or simulator (only 1 isdn line needed, each router can use 1 channel). Some good "reference" prices for best deals are: 2501$750 2502$400 2503$850 2504$450 you have to shop to find these, but it can be done. check ebay, search the "completed" auctions and see what the lowest some stuff has succesfully closed at. If your on a budget get a 2924xl/2912..if you can squeeze it, get a 2901 though (or 2926T). If your are considering CCIE seriously, personaly I would go for the 2901/2926T or 5000 series. A 5000/5002 with sup1/5212a (12ports) is a good choice if you want to attempt ATM later (see below). I got a 2901 for $1200.the deals are out there you just have to look. 2901/2926T have the same supervisor as a 5000, and run the same code. These are "set" based like you would see on the CCIE lab. On a budget, a 2924xl/2912 will still allow you to play with VLANs. Or if money is really tight a 1912/1924 I belive has a 100bT port that is ISL capible. 4 routers minimum is important, imho, so that you can do fully meshed FR scenerios. Token Ring is really not that important, but it is good to know and essential for CCIE down the road. Also TR routers are CHEAP so it works out well. The 2503/2504 allows you to do dial backup/ddr/etc. The above would allow you to do everything. Bridging/AT/DEC/IP/IPX...and importantly DDR (2502/2503) (and so much more). For CCNP I find IP/IPX/Frame Relay/ISDN/DDR/RIP/IGRP/OSPF/EIGRP/BGP/HSRP/Transparent bridging all very important core technologies. You can do all of that with the above, and so much more. What you can't do (but could add later): VLAN trunks (stage 2) === this would require a 100bT interface..to add ISL/802.1q to the mix, you would buy a 2620 probably which is the cheapest addition to get this done. This would add maybe $1500 (remember shop wisely). VLAN's and MLS are part of CCNP, but can be expensive for home lab (especially MLS). You can still make vlans (on your 2924/2901/etc) but can't trunk them to a router is all. Voice (stage 3) = This is more for the CCIE. But perhaps you would like voice specialization. Down the road, add a 2610 (like the 2620, it can use VIC's (voice cards) but is not as expensive since it has no fastethernet. So the 2620/2610 combination is a cheap way to do Voice AND get Vlan trunking at the same time ATM (stage 4) === Your 2600'x from above can do ATM. You can add this to the mix as well if you have the money. some tips: Don't overlook the 4000 series. This is by far one of the best lab values out there. Here are some typical prices you would see on ebay: 2501$750 4000$400 4000 np2t (2 serial)$120 4000 np2e (2 ether) $400 4000 np4t (4 serial)$400 so you can see that you can get a 4000 with 2 serial/2 ethernet for 920.00 not much more than a 2501...yet its modular, you can add Token ring, hssi, all kinds of stuff. The 4500/4700's can use FastEthernet as well..and are MLS capbible. Shop. Hit all the mailing lists and messages boards and ebay.be patient. establish a good price. If someone has a higher price, make an offer. Don't think you have to have it all. What you can't afford pay people like ccbootcamp.com, who have excellent equipment you can rent and use (voice and atm for example). > > Thanks in advance for the help ! > > Greg Cain > MTS Systems Engineer > Verizon Communications > > --- Brian Feeny, CCNP, CCDP [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Administrator ShreveNet Inc.

Re: Novell NLSP
The answer, no doubt, is Radia Perlman, who once upon a time, according to Internconnections, was employed by Novell, and who states in Interconnections that NLSP is an IPX-specific version of IS-IS, which she also designed.

Re: Bruce Caslow
I can attest to the equipment list that Fred mentioned. It is exactly as he says. As for people not being given adequate explanation... I would say it is clear that the course content and pace are defined as to prepare someone who has already spent some fairly decent period of time preparing. Think about it... The number of topic covered are staggering, but then so are the number of potential topics on the test. In fact I do not believe that Mentor's claim is to cover every coneivable variance, but to get people pointed in the right direction. I can assure you that no class, ranging a week will prepare someone who has not done the proper groundwork. If there is an area where there may be any grounds for problems it would be in the understanding and expectations that a student brings to the class. If someone is coming from a mentality that is instilled by the CCNA and CCNP types of read-a-book/pass-a-test mode, there is a radical difference.- Original Message - From: Fred Ingham Sent: Saturday, October 28, 2000 3:21 PM To: Dale Holmes; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Bruce Caslow In the ECP-1 course the number of routers in each rack is seven.

Book Review - CCIE Exam Cram
Quick and dirty book review. CCIE Routing and Switching Exam Cram, by Tom Thomas and Henry Benjamin http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1576104338/qid=972768223/sr=1-3/104-3 810111-6781503 I truly wanted to hate this book. The very title Exam Cram rubs me the wrong way for some reason. But my Design Engineer, the woman who reviews my work and provides me with plenty of good advice in my job, had good things to say, so I bought it. And I have to say, this one turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The chapters on bridging and switching, networking theory, TCP/IP networking, and Cisco device operations are excellent. The coverage of RSRP, DLSw+, and RIF calculation, are excellent. I was disappointed in the Routing chapter. With the exception of OSPF ( I wonder why? ) the routing protocols were not very well covered. Doyle is a far better source for routing protocol behavior. Definitely one to add to one's study repertoire, particularly as a review in those last days prior to actually taking the test. In fact, I became absolutely positive I would pass after racking up the points on the practice test at the back of the book. Furthermore, now that I have seen the actual written, I can say that in terms of content and style, the Exam Cram practice test is most realistic I have seen. Will this book alone prepare you to pass? No way! Is it a good source of information that appears on the exam but is difficult to find elsewhere? You bet! I recommend that one invest in the CCIE Exam Cram book as early as one can in one's certification career. There is a lot of good stuff there, and what you don't understand early in your career you will most definitely grow into as you progress. Chuck -- I am Locutus, a CCIE Lab Proctor.

Re: BECN s on Frame-Relay
What do you mean "eliminate them"?? If you are receiving BECNs from your network that means that PVC is experiencing congestion. It's not a router problem, it's a traffic problem. If your traffic pattern is bursty then implement traffic shaping. If your traffic pattern is sustained, such as constant file transfers, then get more CIR or consider a point-to-point circuit instead of frame relay.

total bit rate for BRI
In Cisco internetworking Technology Overview it states... "BRI also provides for framing control and other overhead, brining its total bit rate to 192 kbps." In Cisco Internetwork Design it states... "The D channel signaling protocol comprises Layers 1 through 3 of the OSI reference model, brining its total bit rate to 144 kbps."

Is it 144 kbps or 192 kbps?

RE: CCIE Written - Preparation Materials - addendum
I should add that I found some very useful material in a rather unexpected place. CCNP Exam Notes: Cisco LAN Switch Configuration ( exam 640-404 - now obsolete ) by Lammle and Padjen Had some very good chapters on ATM LANE, as well as VLANs and Token Ring VLANs. I found this one while cleaning up my office/lab a few weeks ago. I bought it before I found out I had been awarded a passing score on the switching beta I took last January. So I just threw it in the pile, to be looked at later. In retrospect, I am very glad I kept it.

It went to press to fast. I can't say I was impressed by the OSPF though. Does this statement impress you: Ch.6,p208 "OSPF type 1 routes are always preferred over type 2 routes for the same dstination, because the cost will always be lower." Ch.5 p162 A section titled "Transport Control Protocol (TCP)"other places in the book call it "Transmission Control Protocol"...it just flip flops back and forth. I think the RIF stuff had some errors..I am just scanning the book and trying to remember. The BGP routing decision isn't exactly complete or accurate. p297 shows a config for tacacs yet is setting the "radius-server host" instead of "tacacs-server host" > > Definitely one to add to one's study repertoire, particularly as a review in > those last days prior to actually taking the test.

Re: Guidelines for Deploying OSPF: Some structure to the designprocess?
(snipped for brevity) The virtual vs. real Charles predates the OSI model, therefore can not be fit into any of layers. BTW, thanks for reply; I am trying to derive a formula for that will build the optimal OSPF design for whatever situation; such as (X routers) x (Y networks) + (Available CPU Power) + (Available Mem) = (This number of routers in an Area) then (X Routers) /(This number of routers in an Area) = Number of areas Voila! and other French words I don't know the meaning of. All that product and logarithm math scared me (calculus flashback!) ; but I think I can get a formula from your posting as follows: (X is the number of each type of route). 1. The product of the number of intra-area routes in Area K and the logarithm of the number of routers in Area K 2. The number of summarized or explicit inter-area routes seen in Area K 3. The number of routes external to the routing domain seen in Area K > > The first term is the actual Dijkstra computation. > Summarization affects the second term. > Stubbiness and external aggregation affects the third term. Area Database Size = ((intra-area routes)* X )+ (Summarized Routes) + ((Inter-area routes)*X) + ((Inter-AS routes)*X) The above formula would give me the size of the database for an area. I could then figure out if what routers can handle it, and how many areas the available resources (CPU) on each router would allow it to handle. Many thanks! I think I am either gettting an education here, or am deluding myself...it's about the same feeling! At the very least, I am thinking about the resource requirements of OSPF as part of the design process;) Thank you, Charles _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Fwd: total bit rate for BRI
There are a couple Cisco documents that talk about 192-kbps for ISDN BRI, but I think the authors of these documents confused the specifics of Layer 1 signalling on the S-Bus with overall BRI ISDN. Here's what I found by doing some quick research outside Cisco's site. I hope it's from reputable sources: In the case where S and T are coincident, NT1 is connected to a TE1 or TA by means of a passive bus called the S-Bus. The Layer 1 protocol on this bus uses frames that comprise 16 bits from the B1 channel (transmitted at a rate of 64 kbps), 16 bits from the B2 channel (transmitted at a rate of 64 kbps), 4 bits from the D channel, (transmitted at a rate of 16 kbps) and 12 framing bits (transmitted at a rate of 48 kbps). This is equivalent to a total throughput of 192 kbps. In the US, we use the U interface, not the S/T interface. Once again, if the sources I found are reputable, then the transfer rate when the U interface is used is 160 kbps. Anyway, if you get a question with both the 192 and 144 answers, you're screwed, but I don't think you will. I think the tests are written such that the right answer for the transmission rate of BRI is 144 kbps.

A unbelieveable experence!!!!
Hi, Yesterday , I went to replace a Catalyst 3524 with a Catalyst 3548 in a bank. I promised them I won't power off the switch until they finish their work. But I want to check the config file in the running 3524 switch, I connect the console to my notebook. When I press the "Enter" key in my hyperterm window, I expected to see the enter passwrod prompt. But I saw the switch was rebooting. All the ports were turn green!!! Then I got a lot of serious complains Is this possible happened? Or somebody issued a "reload" command without enter and left the console ? Could anyone can tell me the possible answers? Thanks!!

Frame Switch
I have a 2523 in my lab configured as a Frame Relay Switch. All the serial ports are acting as DCE providing clocking to the routers. Initially, all clock rates were set to 64000 but I changed it to 100 ... for some reason, only serial0 and serial1 accepted the new clockrate speed f 100 ... when i tried to enter the clock rate command on the others it says ... %Error: Unsupported clock rate for this interface . When I do a show interfaces the output for serial0 and serial 1 ... the second line of the output says Hardware is HD64570 . for all the other serial interfaces . the second line of the output says Hardware is CD2430 in sync mode . The keywords being "in sync mode" ... I am guessing that this might be a reason I cannot set the clock rate on the other serial interfaces at 100 Any ideas from anyone as to what is happening and why it is like that?

RE: Subnetting questions
It would include the routers IP address. The trick to the question is that number of hosts are a power of two. Within the range of addresses the first address refers to the subnet and the last address is the broadcast address of the subnet. So a 255.255.255.240 mask will only yield 14 host addresses. You have to go to a 255.255.255.224 mask that gives 32 addresses with 30 usable for hosts. > -Original Message- > From: .

High speed usually means that it can goto 4Mbps I believe. Cisco usually denotes a modular high speed interface with "T", as in like a NP-2T, or a NM-4T. Low speed usually means that it can goto 64kps. Low speed interfaces are denoted with an "S", like CSC-4S on a AGS+ is 4 low speed ports. Don't fret though, in a home lab this is fine usually. Even 4 low speed interfaces would allow you to do everything.

If you run point to multipoint on a subinterface, you can map more than one dlci/destination pair. If you had 5 remotes and 5 interfaces, then you would no doubt have 5 networks, and would probably want to run point-to-point. Unless you had more than one remote on a network, then you would run point-to-multipointall I am saying is the only reason you would run point to multipoint in the first place is if you had more than one destination off a subinterface.

RE: Not receiving ICMP messages
All, I am facing a similar issue and did some preliminary research. Hope you have already tried this!? 1. PMTU Black hole detection on the NT Server 2. Upgrade the NT server to latest Service Pack 3. Verifying that ICMP unreachable are reaching back to the NT Server 4. Decreasing the MTU size on NT server 5. Increasing the MTU size on the Routers Out of the above option 4 and 5 depends/impacts the other system an LAN and WAN. But option 1, 2 and 3 can be tried. The following links provide sufficient information to implement the same.
