a trunking/irb/bvi/hsrp design to chew on...
Hi all, I have come up with a design and would appreciate some feedback, tips, or pointers etc. 2 routers connected to 3 switches. 2x3660 w/4 x F/Ethernet 1x4006 w/1 GBIC 3524XL w/1 GBIC 3524XL Routers are connected to each switch, trunked. Switches are connected as such: [4006 GBIC] [GBIC 3524XL F/EtherChannel] == [F/Etherchannel 3524XL] The routers are also directly connected back to back via F/Ethernet. Therefore, each router has 4 trunks. One to each switch, and one to the other router. I have configured dot1q trunking, with Vlan 1 the native Vlan. Each Vlan on the router appears four times, on a subinterface on each f/ethernet interface. Each Vlan has its own bridge group. IRB is configured and a BVI created to route between the Vlans (no layer 3 on the fast ethernet trunks or subinterface). A sample config of a router... interface fastethernet 0/1 no ip address speed 100 duplex full interface fastethernet 0/0.1 encapsulation dot1q 1 native bridge-group 1 interface fastethernet 0/0.10 encapsulation dot1q 10 bridge-group 10 interface fastethernet 0/1.1 encapsulation dot1q 1 native bridge-group 1 interface fastethernet 0/1.10 encapsulation dot1q 10 bridge-group 10 interface BVI1 ip address 10.1.0.1 255.255.0.0 interface BVI10 ip address 10.10.0.1 255.255.0.0 bridge 1 protocol ieee bridge 1 route ip bridge 10 protocol ieee bridge 10 route ip ... and so on ... (about 15 vlans in total). (this was typed in from memory so please excuse any typos) One issue I have is that the switches complain regularly about mac-addresses appearing on multiple trunks (flapping). Perhaps this is just a warning, as only really one interface should be providing connectivity for any given Vlan thanks to spanning tree. Will dot1Q spanning tree have problems with the ieee spanning tree on the router. (or should I configure PVST?) Just to add spice, I've actually got HSRP running on each BVI so that both routers share the default gateway address for each Vlan.

Re: Which IOS do you run in your lab?

RE: Speed performance!!
If you are using a Cisco router what type of switching is it using of the interfaces in question, process-switch, fast-switch, etc. ? Take a look at the interface and processor utilization as well, and the number of broadcast and errors on those segments.

Re: Speed performance!!
JW, be more specific about your network topology. Where are the users in reference to the server? What type of network hardware are you using (hubs, switches, etc.) and with is the type and speed of your WAN links if any?? If you network does not have the adequate horse power and bandwidth to handle the load needed to access the server, summarization will not help much. Granted it helps in optimizing routing but if 600 users are trying to access a server on a hub, you are still going to suffer. jeongwoo park wrote: Hi all My file server is on 140.222.20.1/24 Clients are on these four subnets. 140.222.150.0/24 140.222.181.0/24 140.222.237.0/24 140.222.200.0/24 There is such a slow data transfer rate going from any of these 4 subnets to the subnet where the server is.

Patch panel and LAN distance
Well, I am learning lot through the books on network configuration and network topologies and technologies. They do cover very little about wiring in the real world. If a ethernet LAN segment has a physical distance limitation, then is it possible to extend this distance using patch panel. Are patch panels used only to change the LAN landscape without physically moving the equipement? What are the other uses/functions of having patch panels?

Re: Study group format info wanted
Hi Dave - I'm starting up a study group in the Boston area, and although we haven't officially met yet, here's some ideas that we're looking at: First, our focus is on actual configuration on working routers, not just on theory. Therefore, every member is a router owner and brings it to each meeting. However, as a trainer I agree that the best way to learn something is to be put in a position where you have to teach someone else. So we'll be using a whiteboard and teaching another whatever we know - where one has a question, someone else will jump in and answer it. But again, the focus is centered around actual configuration, not just spending our Saturdays whiteboarding a bunch of topics for one another. Our group is a CCNP/CCIE group, so all attendees have their CCNA certifications already. We're starting off with Doyle's book and going through chapter-by-chapter, and from there we're not sure where we're going to go. Maybe Halabi and Thomas, or some other book for one of the other CCNP exams. We will be meeting every Saturday at 3 pm, and working until we all collapse from exhaustion. I'm not sure how much material we'll be able to get through; maybe a good benchmark will be to stick to a topic until everyone in the group is able to explain it to others in their own words. I'll keep you posted on how this format works out - like I said, we haven't started meeting yet. :-) If anyone else reading this message is interested in joining the group, shoot me an email.

For instance, I know that some groups read a chapter from a book, then meet to discuss that particular chapter and ask each other questions. An idea that I had was to come up with topics that were of interest to the group, have a person volunteer to take a topic and become an expert on that particular subject. In the beginning there could be a large list of topics, people would volunteer, and meetings would be scheduled to discuss a particular topic on a particular night. Topics could be added as necessary. The subject expert would lecture (informally speaking) and during the explanation of the subject questions could be asked by the group members. If there were questions that could not be answered, the lecturer would write them down and get back to the group at the next meeting. My rationale is that you must really learn a subject if you have to explain it clearly to others. The person doing the explaining will have to really understand what he is talking about, as well as be able to explain it to others. Sharing this load among the members of the group should help everyone and, assuming everyone that lectures is clear and thorough, will minimize the amount of time for the group as a whole to gain proficiency in topics. Are there any other groups doing this? Are there other formats that existing groups are using with success? I welcome feedback on the format, as well as any other suggestions to make efficient use of time.

CCIE Security Written Beta Report
Well, that was a lot of fun. The Sylvan test center had major system problems. Mine was the only one of five test takers whose computer was operational. The noise from the troubleshooting was distracting, as well as annoying. But that's ok. How many real life situations have I been in where the conditions required concentration and there was no help from around me? :- That said, I thought the test was ok. There were a couple of outstanding questions. Required some intelligence and some thought. There were a number of questions which required thorough understanding of protocol behavior. I'm looking through the blueprint as I write, so as not to violate the NAD. Let's see.. OK. There were a fair number of questions that were not really security related. I suppose they fall under the blueprint category "general networking" So in this respect, preparation would be similar as for the RS exam. The rest was, as others have said, faithful to the blueprint. The blueprint calls for knowledge of Unix and NT operating systems. I saw related questions. The blueprint details security protocols such as Kerberos, RADIUS, TACACS+ Believe the blueprint. When the blueprint states there will be questions regarding application protocols, and names them, they ain't lying! All in all, a good test. One which I believe can be passed with more book knowledge than practical experience. Same as the RS exam, in fact. As we all know, at the CCIE level, it is the Lab which separates the contenders from the pretenders. I wondered a bit what might be on any security lab exam, and I keep coming back to having to do things on servers and workstations, as well as routers. And that makes sense to me. Good security is, after all, implemented end to end. I for one am happy to see this certification coming into being. I do believe I will earnestly pursue this one after attaining my RS Chuck -- Know the difference between most 50 year old men and Bill Clinton? Well, for one thing, most of them actually did inhale.

Perhaps this is just a warning, as only really one interface should be providing connectivity for any given Vlan thanks to spanning tree. Will dot1Q spanning tree have problems with the ieee spanning tree on the router. (or should I configure PVST?) Just to add spice, I've actually got HSRP running on each BVI so that both routers share the default gateway address for each Vlan.

Re: urgent help needed: rommon 1
K !!! I had that happen last week, when I upgraded an out of the box 3640. There was a bug in the IOS that allowed the router to see it's Fast Ethernet modules as Async. ones. Unlike the 2500 series boot mode, you have very little command structure. I believe you do have a restart or reboot (if you accidentally interrupted the boot sequence- falling into RMON), but my guess is that you are destined for Xmodem download (if you Ethernets are invisible).

Re: Cisco memory
Alright- new twist to this question... when installing two 4 Meg sticks, normally you want to spoof the router into thinking it's one 8 Meg stick. If you see two sticks- you either have 2 Megs, 8 Megs, or 16 Megs ( we know we can confirmed the total size, within the IOS). The only thing I can tell you about having two 4 Meg sticks in a 2500, is when you erase them (or install new) they default to 2 partitions of 4 Megs (needing the no partition command to make them one). If we cannot get the IOS to confirm (which just might make sense), if you don't want to pull the case, then erase the FLASH ( watch for it's default)... .02 Phil - Original Message - From: "Chuck Larrieu" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "Sasa Milic" [EMAIL PROTECTED]; "Brian" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, November 04, 2000 1:33 PM Subject: RE: Cisco memory So, Sasa, what can you tell me from this output? :- Chuck Router#sh flash chips 16384K bytes of processor board System flash (Read ONLY) ChipBankCode Size Name 1 1 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 2 1 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 3 1 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 4 1 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 1 2 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 2 2 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 3 2 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 4 2 01AD 2048KBAMD 29F016 Executing current image from System flash Router# -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Sasa Milic Sent: Saturday, November 04, 2000 5:54 AM To: Brian Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Cisco memory Brian wrote: Lets say you have a router with 8MB flash in it. 2 slots for flash (like a 2500 series).

RE: transfer rate
At the risk of being anal retentive ( quiet, Rodgers :- ) we mustn't forget the MTU, window size, TCP and IP headers, and ack's. I believe we have done a couple of threads along these lines over time. Memory probably doesn't serve, but I believe one can count on a 10-15% overhead cost. Also, it looks to me like the calculation below lost a couple of zeros along the way. My fingers and toes tell me that 230 Mbytes=1840mbits, which divided by 1.54 mbits per second comes out to 1195 seconds, or close to 20 minutes.

If a circuit is transmitting at 1.544Mbps, you can break it down as follows: Convert to bytes 1544000 bits per second = 193000 bytes per second 193000 bytes per second / 1024 = 188.47656 kbytes per second 2300kbytes per second / 188.47656 = 12.203 seconds Assuming ideal conditions (full wire speed etc) Also realistically you need to back out the framing bits and recalculate at 1536000 since the framing bits are unusablebut its not going to move that figure much. With ISDN it would go like 128000 bites per second = 16000 bytes per second 16000 bytes per second / 1024 = 15.625 kbytes per second 2300kbytes per second / 15.625 = 147.2 seconds And this jives, since a T1 is 12 times faster than a 128k isdn line.

RE: CCIE Lab
1) CONGRATULATIONS!! 2) How you gonna book a lab within three months? Where you planning on taking it? 3) For voice, find someplace that has voice capable stuff, rent or borrow time, and practice. The most recent CCIE where I work said the voice part of his lab was only a couple of points. He just memorized configs and got by. 4) The blueprint on CCO has a security link that ends up here: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/index.shtml 5) I have heard, but don't really know for sure, that at present, there may be some simple IPSec tunnel stuff, worth just a couple of points. I am guessing that with the recent changes, that there will be more of these kinds of security related things on the RS lab, even with the appearance of the CCIE/Security. Hey, good luck in your studies. Hope to see those four numbers after your name!

You're right about the 0's, I was too tired from studying, here it is again, hopefully correct this time: T1 Convert to bytes 1544000 bits per second = 193000 bytes per second 193000 bytes per second / 1024 = 188.47656 kbytes per second 23 KB / 188.47656 = 1220.3108 seconds (20.3 min) Assuming ideal conditions (full wire speed etc) ISDN 128000 bites per second = 16000 bytes per second 16000 bytes per second / 1024 = 15.625 kbytes per second 23 KB / 15.625= 14720 seconds (245min) (~4hours) That would bring the actual file transfer speed come to about 164 seconds, if everything works the way it is supposed to. no not likely. 10Mbps ethernet couldn't even transfer 230MB in 164 seconds..think about it.

For instance, if we have a T1 circuit (full 1.544MB) or a 128KB link, how long will it take to transfer a 230MB file and how fast does it transfer per second, minute, etc. I can't seem to find anything that deals with calculating this sort of thing on Cisco's site. Thanks. Its just basic mathmatics really. If a circuit is transmitting at 1.544Mbps, you can break it down as follows: Convert to bytes 1544000 bits per second = 193000 bytes per second 193000 bytes per second / 1024 = 188.47656 kbytes per second 2300kbytes per second / 188.47656 = 12.203 seconds Assuming ideal conditions (full wire speed etc) Also realistically you need to back out the framing bits and recalculate at 1536000 since the framing bits are unusablebut its not going to move that figure much. With ISDN it would go like 128000 bites per second = 16000 bytes per second 16000 bytes per second / 1024 = 15.625 kbytes per second 2300kbytes per second / 15.625= 147.2 seconds And this jives, since a T1 is 12 times faster than a 128k isdn line.

Re: Terminal server not able to Reverse Telnet
You probably still have a session connected to that router. To check that, use "show session" command. It lists all active sessions. If you see a session connected to the router you want to telenet to, just type the number, for example 2, then return. It will take you to that particular router or switch. Hope it helps.
