I figured it out, the Cisco 1005 is not capable of being a DCE, so I just
switched the cable around and it works now..thanks for your help!

Re: Back to Back config

2001-02-17 Thread John Neiberger

I believe the cause of your problem is that you are using the bandwidth
statement instead of the clock rate statement.  The bandwidth statement has
no effect on physical layer clocking, it only makes adjustments to routing
protocol metric calculations.

To make this behave correctly, add "clockrate 64000" to the DCE side.  If
that doesn't work, let us know.

Re: Does a PIX Route (was Re: Firewalls and VPNs)

Is there any good reason why the PIX doesn't route?
Why it doesn't run OSPF? A Checkpoint firewall running

question about frame

2001-02-17 Thread Fred Danson

Hey guys, I just got a quick question about Frame Relay.

 I've been reading the BCRAN book published by Sybex, and I'm finding 
the frame relay chapter a bit confusing. A few paragraphs from the Sybex 
book state the following:
 "Committed burst size and excess burst size are the two types of burst 
sizes. Each of these sizes is measured over a specific time interval called 
the committed rate measurement interval. Committed burst size is the maximum 
amount of data that the network can guarantee will be delivered during the 
committed time interval. The excess burst size is the amount of traffic 
which the user may exceed the committed burst size.
 For example, take a user who buys a Frame Relay circuit with the 
following characteristics: 1544Kbs access rate, 256K CIR, 4 second committed 
time interval.
 The user is guaranteed a CIR of 256Kbps over a four-second period. The 
user could transmit 256Kbps for four seconds, and the network would ensure 
delivery. The user could alternately send 1024Kbps for one second, 
representing the committed burst. However for the remaining three seconds, 
there would be no guarantee of delivery for the excess burst traffic."

 When the author says "The user could alternately send 1024Kbps for one 
second, representing the committed burst.", is he defining the committed 
burst as any speed above the CIR that does not exceed the total amount of 
information (256Kbps * 4 second interval = 1024K, total info) allowed to be 
sent during the time interval ? I always thought of the committed burst rate 
as a rate of information agreed upon with the Telco. For example, I thought 
you could get a CIR of 256Kbps and a burst up to 512Kbps, or a CIR of 
256Kbps with a burst up to 1.544 Mbps.
 Could anyone do me the favor of defining committed burst rate and
excess burst rate, and while you're at it differentiate between the two? :)

Thanks,
Fred Danson

 The user is guaranteed a CIR of 256Kbps over a four-second period. The 
user could transmit 256Kbps for four seconds, and the network would ensure 
delivery. The user could alternately send 1024Kbps for one second, 
representing the committed burst. However for the remaining three seconds, 
there would be no guarantee of delivery for the excess burst traffic."

 When the author says "The user could alternately send 1024Kbps for one 
second, representing the committed burst.", is he defining the committed 
burst as any speed above the CIR that does not exceed the total amount of 
information (256Kbps * 4 second interval = 1024K, total info) allowed to be 
sent during the time interval ? I always thought of the committed burst rate 
as a rate of information agreed upon with the Telco. For example, I thought 
you could get a CIR of 256Kbps and a burst up to 512Kbps, or a CIR of 
256Kbps with a burst up to 1.544 Mbps.
 Could anyone do me the favor of defining committed burst rate and 
excess burst rate, and while you're at it differentiate between the two? :)

Thanks,
Fred Danson

RE: NAT & HSRP Problem

2001-02-17 Thread Bob Johnson

Currently the IOS does not support NAT & HSRP operating together
It's not a bug as they do mention it somewhere on CCO (possibly in the NAT
FAQ)

There is both the problem with the standby router not knowing the NAT
translation table of the active router and the fact that NAT won't use the
virtual MAC address but uses the actual physical address

I've heard that they are working on a enhancement that should address both
issues. Hopefully it will be out in 12.2x.

Re: Ghost Server and clients using multicast

2001-02-17 Thread Adam Burgess

Jeff,

My understanding of the Ghost multicast clients is that they use the OSI
Packet Driver, and support layer 2 multicast only (ie. cannot be routerd
through VLANs).

You may need to put a multicast server in any VLAN where there are clients
(remember that the server does very little and could just be an ordinary
PC).  Another option would be to purchase an Intel Server Pro (or similar)
card that supports VLAN trunking at the server, so the one multicast server
system could be logically connected to all VLANs.

NAT & HSRP Problem

2001-02-17 Thread Simon Watson

Hi Guys
 
I've got 2 dual ethernet Cisco 1605 routers connected to each other via 2 
cascaded hubs.Both sets of interfaces are set up for HSRP.(eth0 of both routers 
are in one HSRP group & eth1 are in another HSRP group). Both routers have 
also been set up to staically NAT a device(which will be called Test PC) on the 
local network which is connected to eth 1 of the routers.Also tracking is set on both 
of the primary router's interfaces to monitor the other interface.
 
Eth0 on both routers are connected to a Core router via a hub. In normal 
operation, if  the test PC  sent continous PING's to a device 
hanging on the Core router, it's local IP address is translated by the HSRP Primary 
router & routed towards the core router & all is well. On inspection of the 
Core routers ARP cache shows the translated IP address of test PC and the virtual 
MAC- address of the primary (int eth0) HSRP router as expected.
 
However if the cable on eth1 of the Primary router is plugged out to invoke the 
Standby router to become  active the PING's seemed to be not getting through. On 
inspection of the 2 1600 routers the changover of the Standby router from standby to 
active has taken place, with the Primary router now in a standby state.
 
However on inspecting the ARP cache of the core router, instead of seeing the 
translated IP address of the test PC with the virtual MAC address, the translated IP 
address was seen with the REAL hardware address of the now standby interface on the 
primary router, thus causing the PING's not to work.
 
I've tried this with another set of routers & the same thing happened. Has 
Cisco got a bug with HSRP being configured with a router when NAT is also configued. 
Plase let me know your thoughts on this matter.

Does a PIX Route (was Re: Firewalls and VPNs)

2001-02-17 Thread anthony kim

Does your pix have a default route?
Does your pix forward packets between subnets?
Logically, then, the pix routes. Call it what you will, when forwarding
between disparate networks, you route. I suppose cisco misunderstands the
term "route" too.

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/iaabu/pix/pix_v42/pix42cfg/pix42apa.htm#xtocid88422

Here's from Cisco:

route Command

The following are the extensions to the route command:

 The routing table has been improved to let you specify the IP address
of a PIX Firewall interface in the route command. If the route
 command statement uses the IP address from one of the PIX Firewall
unit's interfaces as the gateway IP address, PIX Firewall will
 ARP for the destination IP address in the packet instead of ARPing
for the gateway IP address.

 PIX Firewall also does not accept duplicate routes with different
metrics for the same gateway.

 In version 5.1(1), the CONNECT route entry is supported. (This
identifier appears when you use the show route command.) The
 CONNECT identifier is assigned to an interface's local network and
the interface IP address, which is in the IP local subnet. PIX
 Firewall will use ARP for the destination address. The CONNECT
identifier cannot be removed, but changes when you change the
 IP address on the interface.

 You can now enter duplicate route command statements with different
gateways and metrics.

 You can now enter static route command statements with virtual
subnets; for example:

route outside 10.2.2.8 255.255.255.248 192.168.1.3
route outside 10.2.2.8 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.1

Re: LoopBack

2001-02-17 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer

Cisco routers on an Ethernet interface send a keepalive frame to themselves 
every 10 seconds by default. Sniffers call the packets loopbacks. They are 
no big deal. They just appear to be a lot of traffic when you first see it 
with a sniffer. They use very little bandwidth and are not sent as 
broadcast, so it's not a problem.

Re: Cat 3548 not seeing vlans

2001-02-17 Thread Jason Fletcher

Hmm, certainly a trunking problem I would say, might want to check that both
trunk ports (the 5500 and 3548) are not set to auto as they will never trunk
(and auto is the Cisco default).  You should set the trunk port on the 5500
to desirable.  BUT, I think this is the problemYOU GOT LUCKY!  I think
that you probably initially set all the VTP AND VLAN information on the 3548
didn't you?  It doesn't matter that the switch was set to VTP client.  If
the VTP domain configuration revision is set higher on the 3548 then on the
5500 that you plugged it into then the 5500's are pulling their VTP and VLAN
info from the 3548.  That is to say that if you had not configured the
VLAN's on the 3548 prior to trunking it to the 5500 then your entire network
would have gone down as the VLAN configs on all the other switches would
have taken their config from the new "client".  Well, I would first check to
see that the revision is indeed greater on the new switch than on your VTP
server (use the show vtp domain command)  If it is greater, then I would
reset the revision by changing he domain name on the new switch to some
dummy domain...like set vtp domain reset then change it back to the correct
domain.  This reset's the revision back to 0 and everything should start
working properly.  Well, it may just be a shot in the dark, but I think one
of the above two items is the issue.

Re: Cat 3548 not seeing vlans

errata...didn't mean to say the revision was greater than the 5500 that you
plugged the 3548 into.  The revision would be greater than your VTP domain
server, could be either of your 5500's.

Re: Good study guide for CCNP?

2001-02-17 Thread Arthur Stewart

There are four tests (or equivalent) for CCNP, each of which have separate
materials, take a look at:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/10/wwtraining/certprog/lan/programs/ccnp.ht
ml
and
http://www.ciscopress.com/series.cfm?series=2&news=0
and/or the CCNP study guides by Todd Lammle.  Cisco course materials are
also excellent.
If you plan to go beyond CCNP or get seriously into the topics, you'll want
to get the standard references - Comer, Doyle, Clark, Halabi or equivalents.
Enjoy.

RE: Cat 3548 not seeing vlans

2001-02-17 Thread Chris Supino

Jonathan,

A few things you can check:

1) Double check that switches are in same VTP domain, and 3500 are set as
clients and not transparent

2) check the date and time on the new switches. I have seen this prevent VTP
clients from being updated before, if they think the update is coming from
the future.

3) Double check your trunking encapsulation and channeling(if there is any)

Tough to call without the configs. Capture the Vlan config VLAN DATABASE.

Well if that price is very, very good, buy them, use them, and then sell

Re: CCIE and 2500 series issue

2001-02-17 Thread Kevin Wigle

The 2501 is still very useful for most of the lab scenarios you have to
master.

The 2600 does open up the Voice issues.

ATM is expensive no matter what so it may be better to rent rack time for
ATM studies and if you do that it might be a great time to do Voice studies
too instead of buying Voice capable stuff for the lab.

Just recently I found a configuration for using 2 x 2501s tunneled together
on their ethernet ports to make a 4 port frame relay switch.  Damn if I
can't find it just at this moment

But the point is, don't write off the 2501s yet for a study tool.

I have a 1005 and a 3002 which do great to add an interface or two at the
stubs of a network.

2501s for a good price?  GO for it.

Re: CCIE and 2500 series issue

2001-02-17 Thread John Hardman

Hi

I think your co workers are off the mark a little bit. For the R/S lab you
need routers and switches. To be more specific you need routers and switches
that mirror the lab functionality, not necessarily the exact model.

So from a functionality point of view what does a 2600 give that a 2500 can
not.

1) VoIP, VoFR, and VoATM. But keep in mind that the 2600 series require a NV
to use a VIC which are expensive, $1000+ and you still need a couple of VICs
at about $300 each. Better to get a couple of 1750s with a built-in VIC
slot.

2) ATM. Again there are other options, e.g. 4500 or 4700

3) FE for ISL trunking. Here the 2600 is dead on, unless somewhere down the
line Cisco adds ISL capability to the 1700s.

So get the 2500s and be happy that you have a valid router for your lab
work.

BTW, when you get labs, don't look at the router model, look at the
functionality that it is providing, a 2600 as a FR switch is a laugh!

http://www.nanog.org.  The presentations will be available on the 
NANOG site, but I'm not sure if they are yet (I just finished the 
second one and sent it to the secretariat).

While they aren't specifically certification focused, and indeed 
intended for an ISP audience, they may be useful in understanding BGP 
and the broader problem of multihoming.  Lots of other interesting 
ISP-oriented programs on Monday and Tuesday. These are often 
available live on the net, and presentations are usually viewable or

Re: Firewalls and VPNs

2001-02-17 Thread Howard C. Berkowitz

This is a less marketing-speak and more technically driven 
terminology problem than router versus switch, but, again, I fall 
back on there being no such thing as a router.  There are L3 route 
determination and L3 packet forwarding functions.

In the case of the PIX, we have what the IETF is loosely calling a 
"midbox".  It does not have route determination, but it does have 
packet forwarding. It also has NAT with higher-layer awareness, 
stateful packet screening, etc.

I honestly don't know if the PIX decrements the TTL field when it 
rewrites a packet header. It has to recompute the IP header checksum 
(and, indeed, TCP/UDP checksums) if it is NAT'ing, not just 
inspecting.

 From my point of view, I'd like the midbox to decrement TTL, to give 
any chance of a traceroute being meaningful. Of course, if the PIX 
does NAT, a traceroute is useless.

Re: CCIE and 2500 series issue

2001-02-17 Thread Circusnuts

I would ask your friends what they believe major differences between the
2600 & the 2500's are.  The 2600 is modular & offers a few more advancements
(FE modules, etc.).  The 2600 is pretty much the same chassis (blue instead
of black) & that same slow processor we've all grown to love ;-)  I would
say your friends are missing the mark here.  If they have lab dates already,
they'll surly see 2500 @ the testing center.  It's widely advertised that
2511's are the method of access in the Cisco lab racks.  If you can get
2500's for a reasonable price, I'd jump.  As far as using a 2600 as a frame
switch, I cannot think of a more expensive method (maybe using a 3640).
This is a layer 2 process & the commands you need to support Frame-Relay
Switching started in 10.X(X).  Most CCIE study-ers are using AGS+'s & MGS's,
which both have a max of 11.0(22) IOS.  I use a 4500, which I consider the
Cadillac of Frame Clouds & maybe a waist of money for such a small job (but
my ears like the quite fans :-)

All the best in your decision, but again your friends are not demonstrating
a great understanding of available hardware in this instance ...

I have 2 guys at work that have passed the ccie written and are going to

2501 and a 2503 along with a cisco 804. I have a chance to buy 3 more 2500
at a very very good price, Our job is replacing them with 2600. But these
guys said its not a good idea to buy all that equipment because the 2500
will not help you anymore that it would be better to go to the 2600 modular
series. We have a very nice lab that they have setup at work, and they have
went out and purchased some CCIE labs paid like 700 bucks for them. And one
of the labs basically required a 2600 be setup as a frame switch.
I guess now you all can see the dilemma I am in, do I buy these 2500's.
Everyone that is building labs at home to try and conquer this beast with
2500's are we missing the mark here. I mean I wonder how many have labs at

Cat 3548 not seeing vlans

2001-02-17 Thread alex campbell

hello all.
I have a switched network of 2 cat 5500s and 1 3548
the cat 5500s have rsms, and there are 10 vlans in use which are seen by all 
three switches. one of the 5500s is the vtp server. the switches are 
connected via gigabit ethernet
now last week i bought another 3548 and gigabit connectors, with the 
intention of connecting to the other 3548 and seeing all the vlans. Now 
there is a connection (show cdp neigh) and i have copied al the relevant vtp 
info and set it to a client.
Yet it refuses to see the other vlans...the original 3 switches can see them 
fine.
encapsulation seems ok, so can anyone please give me some pointers ?

LoopBack

Hi,

Recently, I done a snffing in my network and it showed a warning -same 
source destination which I happen to found out is the cisco router doing a 
loopback every 10 min to itself (router 1720).
However I have check the fasteth interface, no loopback been set and no 
debug on.
Is this a common sign?
Can someone enlighten me on this?

thank you

Re: The Juniper Networks Certified Internet Specialist (CIS)JN0-301

2001-02-17 Thread Kevin_Cullimore


I can discern 2 indirect relationships:

1. For people who are bored after achieving CCIE status in 2 or more of the
possible tracks AND are desparately seeking to differentiate themselves
from all the other CCIEs out there (since it's presumably a little less
exclusive each time a new # is doled out), this might be the next
certification they pursue.

2. Some of the advanced, non-vendor specific IGP & EGP content comprising
the CCIE exams might also be found in the Juniper exams.

It would probably be amusing to see how much initial demand there would be
if groupstudy or some other capable entity were to set up an analagous
mailing list for juniper certification.

Re: Firewalls and VPNs

Actually, Jason, a PIX will route. The only problem is that it is not
designed to do it (there are no WAN interfaces available for it.) And as
such is not very scalable. How do you plan on moving traffic if you have 6
to 10 interfaces with 6 to 10  different networks in a PIX? You use STATIC
routes.

Re: Problems?

2001-02-17 Thread dre


Yes, Cisco cancelled the CCIE and all certification programs
after Juniper announced they are going to open source their
CLI software.   (Hey, Juniper: *HINT*)

I just changed my shell to `junosh' on my FreeBSD box.  Now
only if I could run `tin' inside it.  I guess I will just have to stick
with telneting to port 119 and reading groupstudy that way ;<
