RE: Rumor Alert - Lab Changes - WAS: Flame bait.

2000-11-18 Thread Chuck Larrieu

The Security Blueprint is explicit in the following topics ( and many
more ):

1) security protocols such as RADIUS, TACACS+, Kerberos, IPSec, and a bunch
more

2) operating systems, i.e. Unix and NT

3) security technologies, including PKI and VPN

4) Cisco Security applications,  including Cisco Secure Unix, Cisco Secure
NT, Cisco secure policy manager, Cisco secure intrusion detection, and Cisco
secure VPN bundle

All these things together are what lead me to speculate that the Security
Lab will include work on servers for the various Cisco Secure products, and
on PC's for the client side of VPN. Which makes perfect sense, because
security is far more than configuring access lists on routers and policies
on firewalls.

What do you mean when you say "end user equipment"?  If what you
say is true, it makes perfect sense to me, and seems reasonable.
The CCIE Security isn't (shouldn't be?) about routers and friends,
per se, but more about the Cisco Secure product line, which includes
some software products.  ACS is an application, not an appliance
but it is an important part of the offering.  Configuring a
NetRanger is more about the Director software than it is about
the sensor, for sure.  Then we have the PIX and the VPN stuff, which
I would expect to be more hands on hardware type events, but nowhere
in my expectation do I see what could be considered "end user" stuff.

Can you clarify what you meant?

Marc Russel's Practice Labs

2000-11-18 Thread Darren Ward


Hi All,
A lot of discussion is made about Marc Russel's Lab Scenarios and I
have one simple question before buying them.
How similar (without breaking NDA) are the Lab scenarios to the real
format of the CCIE Lab?
You'll notice I didn't ask if these Lab Questions are the same just
about the format.
While I'm getting reasonably confident in my ability to have a good
go at the Lab IOS and CatOS wise,  I'd like to familiarise myself
in the way they present the Lab or ask questions (rather than the questions
themselves).
All I know so far, is the technologies, hardware and rough overview
of the format of the two days but nothing about how the questions are presented.
Look forward to some responses.
Darren


Re: Scripts for IOS upgrades

2000-11-18 Thread Justin Marcus



a relativly simple way could be to use a program called
'autoexpect' its for *nix though :P (apologies if you said you were
running NT or something, didnt read original message thoroughly) 
what it pretty much does is log commands you type in, and make them into a
script. basicaly you can do those same commands next time by just running
the script, thus saving time :P

It sounds like you didn't have it setup properly.  If you have the most
recent version (Cisco Campus 2000 3.x), and have the devices properly
loaded in RME *with* the login creditials correctly set for
all fields (not just SNMP communities, but also passwords and TACACS
creditials if you are using them), it works amazingly well.

We have updated images on 150+ Cat29nnXL switches in under half an hour,
and uploaded configuration fragments (such as setting access lists on
telnet/SNMP) in half that time using CWSI.  

It can only work as well as the data you supply it.  While it does a
good job of autodiscovery and topology, you do at some point have to
supply telnet/TACACS information to let it directly manipulate the
images.

I love the product, although I did have some bad experiences before
getting everything "right" with RME.  Don't give up yet.

Re: question : ethernet collision rule of thumb...

2000-11-18 Thread Jeff Kell

It depends on what type of collisions, and whether or not your device
can report the various cases (or finding out what they are called).

Collisions aren't that horrible.  They get requeued for transmission.
Deferred transmits occur when a packet is read to be transmitted but
  the media is 'busy'.
Excessive collisions are 8 or 16 successive collisions on the same 
  packet (depending on who is reporting them).
Deferred transmits can lead to input buffer shorage and consequently
   input drops.

The latter case is a more true metric of media congestion.

To CiscoStudy Group,
 
I think any help in whatever form is necessary 
whatever the content in networking or telecommunications, be it old or 
new.
I am certified in atm , and that may be a big deal 
to some.
But I will tell you from 17 YEARS of experience in 
the electronic engineering field that only experience, people willing to help 
you learn, and the ability of a "KIND-HEARTED" Individual may will get you 
through the tough times, anywhere,anytime, and under any circumstances!!!. I 
personnally would enjoy recieving the book in my e-mail. Also would like to send 
documentaion of my own to the group when needed. Any comments welcome. Any 
disagreements all I have to say is this-you are going to have to learn to share 
knowledge and work together as a team or professional individuals to stay in the 
networking field where-ever you go.

RE: Dampening or damping

I'm not sure if there are regional variations.  I haven't seen much outside of the 
world of cisco that uses the term dampening.  I looked at Ripe, arin, merit etc.  All 
use damping.  I'm still sure this is Cisco's tremendous ability to drive de facto 
standards and terminology.  

For the record, my oxford has the same definitions.  I think those dictionary people 
plagiarize anyway.

Re: HEATED RESPONSE - WAS RE: Lab exam

2000-11-18 Thread Brian Lodwick

Chuck,
  You need a beer, a vacation, some excercise, some kind of stress reliever. 
I do feel your cry from the trenches. I think part of the problem is, this 
field gets bigger every day. The IT industry promises so much, even for the 
really lazy people. If you listen to adds from some of the courses you hear 
get Microsoft or Cisco certified in 2 days of classes. This cries out to the 
lazy bum on the couch that networking stuff is easy. Get rich quick. And 
which certification is the grand-daddy puba of them all? -CCIE. Lazy man 
says if MCSE makes $50,000 after 2 days of classes, maybe I can go to a 4 
day class and get CCIE, and then just think of all the cash I'll be making.
  I do understand what you are saying. I have read and read and read and 
read and read the big fat books, not just the skinny cert preps. I am on the 
track looking for CCIE in my future. I read, and fight to understand 
sometimes. I read these listings to see what kinds of stuff other poeple are 
encountering, but I know I still have alot more studying to go before I have 
any chance of being successfull on the lab. I took the CCNP track to give me 
some stepping stones on my way there, and for something to validate my word, 
saying I know something about networking. The fact of the matter is that 
CCIE is alot of work true, but I disagree with bashing on people.
  Sometimes it takes a failure on a test to help figure out that this is 
going to take alot more work. Also just think about this. Every unprepared 
person who tosses that $1000 Cisco's way is kindof helping you become more 
valueable. Cisco gets more money to research, advertise, purchase small 
companies bottom line get a better stronghold on the market, and if you are 
planning to put that much work into that Cisco certification, you're going 
to want Cisco to stay on top for a long time most likely. You are going to 
almost going to be a part of Cisco it's going to be your advertiser, your 
research team. If Cisco sells alot of routers and switches = the market will 
needs alot of people who know how to work on that equipment.
  My brother gets all upset because one of his friends sort of expects my 
brother to hand feed him his MCSE. He says hey Jeff can you come over and 
help me out with this TCP/IP? The guy is just plain lazy he basicly doesn't 
want to have to read the material. When my brother gets all worked up I just 
say don't worry about it bro, he'll never put the effort into learning the 
material and he won't ever get that certification -he's just making you look 
good.

excessive collisions

2000-11-18 Thread Rayappa Mayakunthala

Folks

These messages appear on my router (Cisco 4700M) at a point of time
everyday. This is very strange because it happens between 2pm and 3pm
everyday. We tried replacing the patch cable, changing interface, etc.

%DEC21140-5-COLL: Unit 0, excessive collisions
%DEC21140-5-COLL: Unit 0, excessive collisions

What does DEC21140 refer to? Also what is "Unit 0"?

Any clues?

I can only speak for myself, and as someone just starting out from the 
standpoint of alot of you guys, that response will make me think before asking 
what i would consider a valid question.  And is validity assessed by what you 
all connsider valid, or what I consider valid based on the knowledge I have 
acquired so far???  We all learn at different rates and all have different 
knowledge and I personally read the reply and what prompted the reply.  Is it 
up to anyone to judge the seriousness or the study habits of another and 
actually criticize???  Being an e-mail group and filled with people trying 
from all levels to suceed, I feel all questions are valid.  Granted, some of 
his questions were a little pointed and needed more research on his part, 
butI refuse to put myself in the position of causing a failure or success 
of any individual based on what type of day I am having.  I think there are 
probably plenty of people who fail and all based on their own merits, without 
anyone else's help to push them in that direction.  But on the other side of 
that coin, to encourage someone and to help them succeed and by offering 
genuine help, would also refresh every ones memory in basic concepts which 
harms noone, and hurts noone's feelings.  And that is a very important factor.
 And the last thing, I enjoy reading all responses and all questions, as this 
in itself is usually a learning experience which I consider beneficial.  
Heated responses dampen then.  Absolutely no benefit is served.

I think most people would consider someone asking a question about how
something works, or why you do such and such, a valid question.  Asking
someone to tell you what to study and what not to study is not a valid
question as far as I'm concerned.

Which is why from what I have heard/read (and visiting the web site) that

They have been argued as the best lab prep material for the very reason that
they do get into the "large" scenarios.

I haven't bought them yet but I will be in the early new year.

RE: Off Topic - Apologies for my HEATED RESPONSE

2000-11-18 Thread Louie Belt

Chuck,

Don't worry about it.  Anyone who is truly in prep mode for the CCIE lab
knows exactly how you feel.  After spending months using every spare moment
preparing for my lab, I can guarantee you I've snapped at people for a lot
less.  Only those who are in true prep mode (or those who have been through
it  - and been successful) can possibly understand the amount of work it
takes to get through it.  I agree with your sentiments, it's not for
slackers, and those who are not willing to spend the time to get the answers
for themselves should not even consider wasting their time (or Cisco's) in
pursuit of the CCIE cert.  Just keep in mind that the number of CCIE
wanna-be's outnumber CCIE's 10-1.

Keep struggling forward!!

Chuck,
  You need a beer, a vacation, some excercise, some kind of stress reliever.
I do feel your cry from the trenches. I think part of the problem is, this
field gets bigger every day. The IT industry promises so much, even for the
really lazy people. If you listen to adds from some of the courses you hear
get Microsoft or Cisco certified in 2 days of classes. This cries out to the
lazy bum on the couch that networking stuff is easy. Get rich quick. And
which certification is the grand-daddy puba of them all? -CCIE. Lazy man
says if MCSE makes $50,000 after 2 days of classes, maybe I can go to a 4
day class and get CCIE, and then just think of all the cash I'll be making.
  I do understand what you are saying. I have read and read and read and
read and read the big fat books, not just the skinny cert preps. I am on the
track looking for CCIE in my future. I read, and fight to understand
sometimes. I read these listings to see what kinds of stuff other poeple are
encountering, but I know I still have alot more studying to go before I have
any chance of being successfull on the lab. I took the CCNP track to give me
some stepping stones on my way there, and for something to validate my word,
saying I know something about networking. The fact of the matter is that
CCIE is alot of work true, but I disagree with bashing on people.
  Sometimes it takes a failure on a test to help figure out that this is
going to take alot more work. Also just think about this. Every unprepared
person who tosses that $1000 Cisco's way is kindof helping you become more
valueable. Cisco gets more money to research, advertise, purchase small
companies bottom line get a better stronghold on the market, and if you are
planning to put that much work into that Cisco certification, you're going
to want Cisco to stay on top for a long time most likely. You are going to
almost going to be a part of Cisco it's going to be your advertiser, your
research team. If Cisco sells alot of routers and switches = the market will
needs alot of people who know how to work on that equipment.
  My brother gets all upset because one of his friends sort of expects my
brother to hand feed him his MCSE. He says hey Jeff can you come over and
help me out with this TCP/IP? The guy is just plain lazy he basicly doesn't
want to have to read the material. When my brother gets all worked up I just
say don't worry about it bro, he'll never put the effort into learning the
material and he won't ever get that certification -he's just making you look
good.

I don't have a problem with people telling us about books. That's a good thing.

Regarding my book having a copyright of 1999, so? It teaches a network 
design methodology that is timeless. I know of only a couple minor 
anachronisms in it.

Sorry I caused such an uproar! Puh-Leez do NOT respond to this message.

RE: Off Topic - Apologies for my HEATED RESPONSE

2000-11-18 Thread Craig Johnson

Man, you hit the nail on the head with that one.  I take my lab December
13 and I get more irritable everyday.  Maybe it's because my coworkers
don't understand or care why I'm doing it, or don't see the difficulty
in it.  It's especially hard when you get no support from your job in
studying.  When coworkers have no qualms in taking routers out of your
lab just because yours are setup and its convenient to do so.  That's
why this list is so invaluable, you have to have someone that can relate
to you.  Hopefully, my stress will die down soon enough. :)

Chuck,

Don't worry about it.  Anyone who is truly in prep mode for the
CCIE lab
knows exactly how you feel.  After spending months using every spare
moment
preparing for my lab, I can guarantee you I've snapped at people for a
lot
less.  Only those who are in true prep mode (or those who have been
through
it  - and been successful) can possibly understand the amount of work it
takes to get through it.  I agree with your sentiments, it's not for
slackers, and those who are not willing to spend the time to get the
answers
for themselves should not even consider wasting their time (or Cisco's)
in
pursuit of the CCIE cert.  Just keep in mind that the number of CCIE
wanna-be's outnumber CCIE's 10-1.

Keep struggling forward!!

Re: Layer3 switching--Follow Up Question

2000-11-18 Thread Jason Roysdon

Let's look at what each one does:
Router: Routes protocols (IP, IPX, AppleTalk, etc.).  If it doesn't know the
procotol, it can't route it.
Bridge: Works at layer 2 and only deals with MAC addresses and could care
less about the protocol at layer 3.
Brouter: Routes protocols it knows, bridges protocols it doesn't know/that
are unroutable (no layer 3 addressing).

Layer 3 switch example:
VLAN1: Ports 1-2  10.0.1.0/24
VLAN2: Ports 3-4  10.0.2.0/24
VLAN1 + 2: Ports 5-6  10.0.1.0/24 + 10.0.2.0/24

It can route packets between the VLANs.
It can switch/bridge at layer 2 between ports in the same VLAN.
For multi-VLAN ports it can switch/bridge between ports and also do
essentially "local" routing between ports, but you losing the advantages of
having a VLAN (security, separate broadcast domains, etc.) when you have
multi-VLAN ports.  You also lose control of what you want don't want
bridged/switched (stuff you're not routing, but also have no way to block at
layer 2 if you bridge/switch).

I'm also not clear on what switches can handle multi-VLANs for the same port
(not trunking, mind you).  I don't believe most can.

Anyway, just some thoughts on the whole thing.

Re: Multiple default gateways, same result?

2000-11-18 Thread Jason Roysdon

I believe the biggest reason for routing to a named interface is for ip
unnumbered, which would not have a directly connected interface on the same
subnet (thus no possibility of a route statement including an ip address
would work as it doesn't know how to get there):

Router A
int e0
 ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
int s0
 ip unnumbered ethernet0
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 s0

Router B
int e0
 ip address 10.2.1.1 255.255.255.0
int s0
 ip unnumbered ethernet0
ip route 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 s0

Conside if instead they had the following route statements:
Router A
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.2.1.1  (what routes does the router know?  only
directly connected 10.1.1.0/24, so it has no way to know how to get to
10.2.1.0/24)

Router B
ip route 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 10.1.1.1  (this one is clearly nonsense)

Re: packets out of order due to load-balancing

2000-11-18 Thread Jason Roysdon

ppp multilink is a way of packet load balancing (which is what I believe he
meant).  Both sides must be configured for ppp multilink and it handles the
packet splitting and reassembly.  Otherwise, you're just sending whole
packets through two or more paths of the same weight and the router doesn't
care about sequencing, only the sending and receiving nodes.

rotary
To define a group of lines consisting of one of more lines, use the rotary
line configuration command. Use the no form of this command to remove a line
or group of lines from a rotary group.

rotary group
no rotary


Syntax Description
  group
 Integer between 1 and 100 that you choose to identify the rotary group.




Default
None

Command Mode
Line configuration

Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0.

Typically, rotary groups are used on devices with multiple modem connections
to allow connections to the next free line in a hunt group.

Connections to a rotary group can take advantage of the following features:


  a.. Clear To Send (CTS)-If a line in a rotary group is configured to
require CTS, the Cisco IOS software skips that line if CTS from the attached
device is low. This feature enables the software to avoid inactive host
ports automatically. To enable this feature, use the modem bad line
configuration command.


  b.. RS-232 handshaking-Rotary groups are often associated with large
terminal switches that require an RS-232 handshake before forming a
connection. In this case, use the modem callout line configuration command
to configure the lines in the group. If the RS-232 handshake fails on a
line, the Cisco IOS software steps to the next free line in the rotary group
and restarts the negotiation.


  c.. Access control-You can use access lists for groups of virtual terminal
lines.


  d.. Session timeout-Use the session-timeout line configuration command to
set an interval for a line so that if no activity occurs on a remotely
initiated connection for that interval the Cisco IOS software closes the
connection. The software assumes that the host has crashed or is otherwise
inaccessible.

The remote host must specify a particular TCP port on the router to connect
to a rotary group with connections to an individual line. The available
services are the same, but the TCP port numbers are different. Table 7 lists
the services and port numbers for both rotary groups and individual lines.


  Table 7: Services and Port Numbers for Rotary Groups and Lines  Services
Provided  Base TCP Port for Rotaries  Base TCP Port for
  Individual Lines
  Telnet protocol
 3000
 2000

  Raw TCP protocol (no
  Telnet protocol)
 5000
 4000

  Telnet protocol, binary mode
 7000
 6000

  XRemote protocol
 1
 9000




For example, if Telnet protocols are required, the remote host connects to
the TCP port numbered 3000 (decimal) plus the rotary group number. If the
rotary group identifier is 13, the corresponding TCP port is 3013.

If a raw TCP stream is required, the port is 5000 (decimal) plus the rotary
group number. If rotary group 5 includes a raw TCP (printer) line, the user
connects to port 5005 and is connected to one of the raw printers in the
group.

If Telnet binary mode is required, the port is 7000 (decimal) plus the
rotary group number.

Example
The following example establishes a rotary group consisting of virtual
terminal lines 2 through 4 and defines a password on those lines. By using
Telnet to connect to TCP port 3001, the user gets the next free line in the
rotary group. The user does not have to remember the range of line numbers
associated with the password.

line vty 2 4
rotary 1
password letmein
login


I just tried it for line vty 4 on my 1605R (specifying rotary 1) and I was
about to telnet to 3001.
Regarding ACL's on a CON port: You clearly can't filter incoming serial
connections, but you could apply an ACL outgoing (in other words, isolate
CON to that router only, or telnet to a single host, etc.)

Re: Traffic Shaping

2000-11-18 Thread Jason Roysdon

txload & rxload gives it to you based on a max of 255 if you've set your
bandwidth for an interface.  Not a percentage, and probably just as easy to
calculate the average compared to max.  The best solution to me is MRTG.
Here's an example of what it can give you:

Re: excessive collisions

2000-11-18 Thread Hans Damen (studygroup)

DEC21140 is a FastEthernet controller, Unit 0 means  FastEthernet0 being in
slot 0 of your 4700M, Excessive collisions mean that a packet was dropped
after trying to get on the medium for 15 times. The cause of this could be a
full segment, or a faulty device. It also is important to know whether you
use a hub or a switch. However according to your statement that it only
happens between 2 and 3 pm I assume that the cause is to be found in a
heavily loaded segment. Check your load during this time and try to decrease
it if so. It could also be worthwhile to check the status of your interface
(output errors, deferreds etc.)

Regards,

Hans

On CCO:
DEC21140 Fast Ethernet controller error messages


Error Message
%DEC21140-5-COLL: [chars] excessive collisions

Explanation   A Fast Ethernet packet was dropped because too many attempts
to transmit it were stopped by collisions. This
can be caused by a Fast Ethernet segment that is full to capacity or by
other equipment on the LAN malfunctioning.

Recommended Action   No action is required.

804 problems after 'erase startup' and reload

2000-11-18 Thread Jason Roysdon

Was going to let a friend reconfigure an 804 from scratch.  We were
telnetted to a router and going out the AUX port with reverse telnet to the
804.  I copied my current config off to my tftp server, then did an 'erase
startup', 'show startup' (came back unconfigured), 'reload,' and said no to
save current config and confirmed reload.  Next thing we knew we got
jibberish (like we had the wrong baud rates).  AUX was set for 9600
(default) and was working fine before the reboot...  When I got physical
access to the 804, I tried with direct console access from my laptop.  Same
thing, 9600,8,n,1 just gave me jibberish.  I tried all other baud rates Tera
Term Pro (my favorite free telnet/serial terminal program) supports
(100-115200) , as well as 7,e,1 at a random number of baud rates, etc.  Even
went to try from Hyperterminal, no luck there either at 9600 or 115200 (same
results).  Actually, the only thing that didn't give me jibberish was 115200
which just flashed the cursor but never moved it.  I tried issuing ESC,
CTRL+C & BREAK after power off/on with 9600 & 115200, no luck and same
results.

Any ideas out there?

Install them and then the add drivers to each

Re: Master Clock Source

2000-11-18 Thread Jason Roysdon

Do you have a Unix box you can host NTP from?  Might try that as a source.
Also, if this box is losing time, don't set it as an ntp master (it
shouldn't be serving out bogus time).  Oh, think I may have found your
problem, try assigning a stratum to your master:
ntp master 15

I'd set 15 as it's the lowest (especially since you have no true contact
with an accurate source), and hopefully that'll let you get time to your
misbehaving box.  I tested a bit on some routers I have, and whenever I set
bogus times, checked that it did get set bogus, and rebooted, they always
got the right time when they came back up from the ntp master they were
configured to poll.

The shortest possible abbreviation for "show run" would be "sh ru". If you
need to do this often you could also up the up arrow or ctrl-p. When typing
in commands you need only type enough letters so that IOS no longer finds

Hello friends

Is there any way that I can reduce repetitive typing of the same command buy
specifying a shorter word.

For example instead of typing
"sho run", can I just type "sr"
Is there any way of doing this in the CLI

Please let me know

Thanks
Sam

What's command for the following tasks?
Task 1. using a special IOS image from FLASH
Task 2. using a special IOS image from TFTP Server
Task 3. using a special Configuration File from FLASH 
Task 4. using a special Configuration File from TFTP Server
Task 5. Combine 1&3
Task 6. Combine 1&4
Task 7. Combine 2&3
Task 8. Combine 2&4

RE: CLI help

2000-11-18 Thread Ehab Mohamad Abdullah

Hi,

You can use the command :
Host(Config)#alias


alias
To create a command alias, use the alias global configuration command. Use
the no form of this command to delete all aliases in a command mode or to
delete a specific alias, and to revert to the original command syntax.

alias mode alias-name alias-command-line

no alias mode [alias-name]


Syntax Description  mode
 Command mode of the original and alias commands. See Table 94 for a list of
options for this argument.
 
alias-name
 Command alias.
 
alias-command-line
 Original command syntax.
 
Regards 

Ehab

Re: Off Topic - Apologies for my HEATED RESPONSE

2000-11-18 Thread Austin

Chuck,

This is a great gesture from you. My post is not directed to you at all. It
is a general post.
I am of the notion that none of us have any right whatsoever to go off on
another.
If one cannot answer the question, do not reply.
If one is miserable or upset or cannot handle the pressure of training for
the CCIE, take five, think about what you are doing, because guess what, the
real life pressure in Network down situations can be much worse ... is it at
this point that you will be snapping at your colleagues?
Just because you are frustrated and tired of training, does not mean the
next person is.
So, to Mr. Pun that asked the question, contact your CCIE Lab Proctor, or
Cisco Channel SE with your questions, and you also might want to check out:
http://www.ccbootcamp.com/ccielab.htm
Hope this answers your questions Mr. Pun and good luck on your journey
towards the coveted CCIE!!!

Re: IS-IS use??

2000-11-18 Thread Jack Walker

Hi Group,

Could you please light me up on the following comments:

"OSPF allows use of ATM VCmux encapsulation (so TCP acks fit in one ATM
cell);
IS-IS requires ATM SNAP encapsulation, forcing two-cell TCP acks (but Henk
Smit's NLPID hack fixes this)."


I have no clue what this means, please help here.

Thanks

Jack

RE: CLI help

2000-11-18 Thread Louie Belt

You can take it one step further by using alias commands. For instance
entering the following command in config mode:

alias exec sr show running

would result in sr being used at the command prompt to perform a "show
running" command.

The shortest possible abbreviation for "show run" would be "sh ru". If you
need to do this often you could also up the up arrow or ctrl-p. When typing
in commands you need only type enough letters so that IOS no longer finds
the command to be ambiguous... like copy run star for copy
running-configuration startup-configuration or sh ru for show run. If you
are unsure about how many letters you need to type so that the command is no
longer ambiguous, type out part of the command and then a question
mark...like co?  for copy.
