**WARNING - THE VERBOSITY BIT IS SET - THIS MESSAGE IS DISCARD 
ELIGIBLE IF YOUR BUFFERS ARE FULL**

Hi,

I think there may be a degree of misunderstanding about the use 
of the no exec command.  If you have seen this command used 
in an access server that provides dialin access to corporate 
users, or you have configured an access server for a typical 
ISP, that is probably an appropriate place for this command.  
When you place no exec under a given line, it will preclude 
any use of an executive process (user or privileged).  Dont 
take my word on it.  Lets all do a little test on our home 
routers.

First, do not do this test in a production network, period.  
Second, it you are a little weak on the IOS, you may want to 
brush up on your password recovery procedures; you will need it 
later.  Here goes.  I will show you three different ways to 
test this. First, go to the console port of your router  **DO 
NOT TELNET IN**  Next, configure your router as follows:

router#
router(config)#
router(config)#lin vty 0 4
router(config-line)#no exec
router(config-line)#exit
router(config)#int loopback 77
router(config-int)#ip add 1.0.0.1 255.0.0.0
router(config-int)#end
router#

Now attempt to telnet into your own router using any accepted 
telnet command, such as:

router#telnet 1.0.0.1

or,

router#connect 1.0.0.1

or,

router#1.0.0.1

You should get the following output:

2503#telnet 1.0.0.1
Trying 1.0.0.1 ... Open

[Connection to 1.0.0.1 closed by foreign host]

The connection will not open.  Since we did not have any access 
class commands applied, the only other explanation is that a 
vty line is dedicated for one purpose, namely to run an 
executive process.  You can either telnet into the vty to do 
user exec commands, or privileged exec commands.  When the line 
has been restricted so that no exec is in place, then the vty 
line is effectively shut down and no connection is allowed.  
Remove the "no exec" command under the vty lines and reattempt 
it.  You will note it works.

Lets try it a second way.  This time, we will implement the 
following commands on any cisco router that has both an AUX 
port and a console line.  We will change the AUX port into a 
line configuration and we will issue the no exec command on 
the AUX line.  Before you start, make sure your configuration 
is clear under the AUX line and console lines.  It should 
similar to this:

line con 0
 transport input all
line aux 0
 transport input all

Go ahead and verify you get a command prompt in both AUX and 
console lines. Verify you have interactivity by starting a ping 
to 1.0.0.1 on each (physically plug into both ports).  Then 
execute the following additional commands while plugged into 
the AUX line:

router#conf t
router(config)#lin aux 0
router(config-line)#no exec
router(config-line)#end
router#

Try a ping again.  It will work.  Now save your configuration 
with the following command and execute a reload while still 
plugged into the AUX line:

router#copy run start
router#reload
Proceed with reload? [confirm]y
07:35:36: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested

The last line is the last entry you will see.  When the router 
reboots, you will not be able to see any output.  You may be 
asking yourself why the command did not take place immediately 
as most commands do.  It did take place immediately however, 
you were still on a connected line.  Once the connection is 
severed (via a reload), then the AUX line will have no exec 
process when the system reboots.  This can be further verified 
once the system boots by attempting to get a router prompt from 
the AUX line.  When you are unsuccessful, plug into the console 
line and go into line configuration mode and restore the exec 
process with the following commands:

router#conf t
router(config)#lin aux 0
router(config-line)#exec
router(config-line)#end
router#

Log back into the AUX line and verify it now works properly. On 
some routers you may have to reboot to get this to take 
effect.  The final check on this is to do the same test with 
the console line.  

WARNING - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE VERY 
FAMILIAR WITH PASSWORD RECOVERY!!!  

Plug into the console line and type the following:

router#conf t
router(config)#lin con 0
router(config-line)#no exec
router(config-line)#end
router#

Run the same test and verify all functionality is still there, 
e.g. execute a ping and get a response.  Everything should work 
just fine.   Save your config and do a reload as before:

router#copy run start
router#reload
Proceed with reload? [confirm]y
07:35:36: %SYS-5-RELOAD: Reload requested

This time you are going to notice something really strange and 
different.  You will note that you can watch the router reload 
and go through its POST and execute its startup-config.  The 
only problem is that you cannot tell the router to do anything 
because you guessed it, you have no exec on the console 
line. You will see output go by one the screen, but you cannot

VLAN's and Routers [7:2534]

2001-04-29 Thread Sammi

Still struggling with VLAN's and a basic question escapes me.
If I create:
 VLAN1 as 10.200.1.x/16 
VLAN2 as  10.200.2.x/16 or /24
I get "VLAN's overlap", which I assume is a bad thing (at least at my
skill level, I understand you could use overlapped VLAN's).

So, I'm confused how I can assign scopes to each VLAN, what the exact
rules are. I'm starting to come to the conclusion I cannot use VLAN's
without a router. Is that a correct assumption?

Any help, tips, leads appreciated.

Re: IRB and CRB [7:2476]

2001-04-29 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Katson Yeung)

CRB is less used today since switches can do the job very well.

IRB is more commonly used. At least some of the IXes is using this
ISPs connect to IX using ATM VC but not willing to put router there.
As a result, the connection to IX end is an ATM sub-Interface. Since
the IX is doing L2 job to switch Ethernet traffic between ISPs (of
course, doing BGP route exchange), the ATM subinterface should be
bridged to the L2 Ethernet switch to do traffic exchange... and
therefore they deploy IRB.

I don't have bad feeling about IRB (neither good feeling). It should
work. However, I encountered lot of silly troubles on lot of IOS
implementations such as:

1. 50% packet discard (not due to the load. It just happened normally)
from FE to ATM BVI. (12.0.7T)
2. After reconfig other ATM VC, the whole PA-A3 is down and require
reload. Even at 12.0.10GD on a 7507.
3. I need to place my PA-A3 to a ealier firmware version in order to
make it work probably.
4. Due to STP, I cannot really do multipath load balancing (old
bridged network problem).

In most case, I think IRB should be avoided. This is my 0.02.

Re: retransmission of packets in WAN [7:2525]

2001-04-29 Thread Karen E Young

Kuldip,

For most of these, a quick look at the purpose of the protocol will answer
your question. However, don't assume that error control is required,
sometimes there isn't any error control at all. However, even when a
protocol has error control functionality, don't assume that it will do
anything beyond discarding corrupted packets/frames.  A good way to check if
a protocol does some form of error control is to look at the header or frame
format. If a CRC or FCS is included then it does at least minimal error
control (as in the case of SDLC). A closer look at how the protocol operates
is needed to determine what sort of error control is performed.

a. X.25 --> Guarantees data integrity by using HDLC to handle error control.
X.25 itself handles the call setup/teardown procedure, not error control
(uses the following packet types: Call Accept, Call Request, Clear
Confirmation, Clear Request, Data Packet, Diagnostic, Interrupt
Confirmation, Interrupt Request, Reject, Reset Confirmation, Reset Request,
Receive Not Ready, Receive Ready, Restart Confirmation, Restart Request,
Registration Request, Registration Confirmation).

b. HDLC --> The job of HDLC is to ensure that data passed up to the next
layer has been received exactly as transmitted (i.e error free, without loss
and in the correct order).

c. SDLC --> Less error control than HDLC in that it only provides link
integrity. Frames received correctly are acknowledged by the receiver while
erroneous frames are ignored.

d. Frame-relay --> There is no guarantee of data integrity at all. Error
control is sacrificed in the interest of speed. Its assumed that higher
layer protocols will handle all necessary error control. The network
delivers frames, whether the CRC check matches or not. It does not even
necessarily deliver all frames, discarding frames whenever there is network
congestion.

e. DLSw+ --> Error control is provided by SNA, not DLSw. DLSw only handles
link control. Most bridging protocols (as far as I know anyway) deal
strictly with getting the data from point A to point B and let the layer 3/4
protocols handle error control/correction.

f. ATM --> ATM does not have error control functionality (think about what
goes into an ATM cell - and what doesn't). Any error control has to be
performed by the protocols that are encapsulated in the ATM cells.

g. T1, E1 --> These are layer 1 protocols. T1 and E1 deals with signaling
and encoding. At this level, its just bits, not frames or packets. Error
control is generally handled at layers 2 through 4 (when its done at all).

Hope this helps,
Karen

Random Randomness [7:2530]

2001-04-29 Thread Kris Jacobs

This seems a good one for someone to sink their teeth into. Any
takers?

OK, here's the problem:

Our Engineers are working on a drives application that uses Cisco
Switches.
I've attached a .tif file that contains 3 pages - a System
Diagram, a
Logical Diagram and a diagram showing some troubleshooting steps
they've
done.

System Diagram:
They've got a PLC with two 10BT copper ethernet cards in it.  One
card does
10BT half-duplex TX data flow of 1700 UDP Frames per second.  The
other does
RX same type & rate.  (There are no collisions.)  These are
plugged into one
of two Cisco 2900 XL fiber switches (the 2 switches are connected
via 100FX)
through a copper expansion card.  The 2 2900XLs are connected via
100FX
(autoneg, I believe, for full/half dup) to 17 Digital Drives.
Each of the
100FX lines to the drives has data flow of 100 UDP Frames per
second for
both TX & RX.

Logical Diagram:
Logically, the PLC talks to each Drive at 100 UDP Frames per
second.
There's a Protection Timer on each Drive that tracks the max time
between
UDPs Received.  Typical time = 10 milliseconds.  Worst case = 30
millisecs.
Fail = 1 second +/- 10 milliseconds.

Problem:
On 1-2 drives randomly every 24 hours we see a loss of PLC to
Drive UDP
Frames for *exactly* 1 second +/- 10 milliseconds  BUT *no* loss
of Drive to
PLC UDP Frames.

Troubleshooting steps thus far:
1.  Each drive has 2 LEDs, one for TX Activity and one for RX
Activity.
They connected the LEDs (or maybe the thing that lights the
LEDs?) to a
Recorder to monitor the TX & RX.  They saw a loss of RX Activity
for 1
second and *no* loss of TX Activity.
2.  Via diagnostic configuration of the switch, they took Drives
#1-4 and
sent the Frames they were sending to a Sniffer (which was using
custom
software that the Engineer in charge wrote).  This test was
unsuccessful
because *even though it's a switch & not a hub* they didn't get
data unique
to Drives #1-4, but ocassionally got stuff from the other Drives,
too.  This
really stumped them because a switch is not shared media, but
switched (duh)
& they don't think that they should see anything other than
traffic to/from
Drives 1-4 since they're each on their own port.

Next Troubleshooting steps:
1.  Set the Switch to Drive 100FX runs to Full Duplex only
2.  Put a 10BT hub between the Switch and the PLC & sniff to see
what
traffic is happening there.

Questions:
1.  Why were they seeing stuff from other ports when they did
Troubleshooting step #2?
2.  Is this a known issue with these switches?  It's intermittent
in that it
doesn't happen with any seeming regularity to any one port, but
happens to
each port at random intervals.  Some ports never do it.  Some do
it more
often than others.  Haven't seen any pattern to it.

Caveat:
They have NOT ruled out the possibility that it's a problem with
the PLC.
Next Troubleshooting Step #2 is designed to determine if the
error is in the
switch or the PLC.  ie. is the PLC sending the data or is *it*
stopping for
1 sec randomly - maybe due to buffer overrun?

Any help that anyone can provide - whether it be additional
troubleshooting
steps or KB articles for the Cisco switches etc. - would be
greatly
appreciated!

RE: retransmission of packets in WAN [7:2525]

2001-04-29 Thread Chuck Larrieu

Hh

TCP = connection oriented = reliable
IP = connectionless = unreliable
( yes I know that neither of these equality chains are absolute )

Based on this, what might you surmise? For each of the protocols you
mention? Are they reliable or unreliable? Take it from there.

Re: IS-IS: Default route for L1 router [7:2485]

2001-04-29 Thread aaa aaa

The adjancencies are formed, here clns routing is
automatically enabled when you enter routing isis, but
actually clns routing is not enabled at any interface,
so it will not try to build clns routing table.

According to Doyle's book, you need to do something to
let L1 knows the default route, for example, have clns
routing command *on* interface level.  Or have L1L2
router generate a default route, but I have neither
one configured here.

Probably it's a new enhancement after 11.2.  I don't
know.

Re: is it possible to mix and match flash cards? [7:2518]

2001-04-29 Thread Tony Medeiros

There are a few places where you can mix flash but mostly you have to do it
by trial and error.  7200 and 6500 flash cards are totally interoperable.
Sometimes you can use a flash card from a different platform and reformat in
the target platform and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.  Flash
SIMs are another story.  I have gotten 3600 flash sims to work in a 2600 but
only after a reformat.  2500 and AS5200 flash SIMs are the same.

There are basicly 3 types of flash systems in Cisco routers: A, B, and C.
If you look on the Doc CD under: IOS configuration, configuration
fundamentals, File system commands,  you will find all the differences and
some platform interoperabliity.

Thanks to all that responded to this original thread...it is now over.  What

broken - that's it, plain and simple.  I have since purchased another 2511

Re: Question .. CCIE lab and scheduling! [7:2461]

2001-04-29 Thread Jason

Guess it's nice to be called "stupid" by someone who asked for advises.
Teach all of us not to response in future to stupid questions in the first
place.
Why did you bother to take the written in the first place, why not be
prepared for the lab and then take the written ? Sure as hell save all your
headaches !!
Between waiting 6 months and doing the lab at the nearest possible time, I'm
sure there are enough people "smart enough" to tell you that it might just
be worth it.

Hi Albert,
The book by Laura Chappell is good, But the book from Cisco press that nails 
the test directly is the book by Amir S. Ranjbar, Titled CCNP Support Exam 
Cert Guide.
The book is very well written. the authour is an incredable writer and human 
being.
Know Frame Relay and ISDN debugging commands til you dream of them.

good luck,

Re: IS-IS: Default route for L1 router [7:2485]

2001-04-29 Thread andyh

I'm not convinced that you have L1-L2 adjancencies as you think - you have a
fairly random mix of circuit-types on the interfaces and is-types on the
isis processes.  Might want to do a "sh clns neighbors" on each router to
see that the adjancencies are as you think they are.  Don't recall quite how
default/unspecified circuit-types will behave, but prolly worth checking

Also, you *do* have clns routing enabled on all the routers.

As far as loopbacks go, I would always run link-state protocols off Lo
interfaces, even in the lab - gives you a few extra routes in the table to
play with, nice to have non-direct-link routes in there to check your
connectivity.

This may well be a bug - as per Control Program, but good to be certain of
what we're actually looking at first-off

Re: Differences between TACACS+ and Cisco ACS [7:2245]

2001-04-29 Thread Sean Young

"You can access it using a browser anywhere".  This is what I am worried
about.  When you are talking about controlling ACS via the web browser
interface, does it use standard "http" or "https".  If it uses the
standard http, then everything can be captured by a sniffer.

Can anyone confirm this?  Thanks.

Sean

Re: Question .. CCIE lab and scheduling! [7:2461]

2001-04-29 Thread Tony

I was pretty sure that was the case ... With the long lead times to get into
the lab I just figured by now Cisco would have
wised up and realized that the standard process would be to pass the written
THEN work on lab prep for at least 6 months
before FORKING up $1250 to schedule a lab rather then pass the written then
sign up for the lab knowing good and well that you will not pass it with
paper preparation only!!  I'd rather feel good about the lab FIRST then
schedule it and owe Cisco the money
whether I am ready or not in 6 months.

For all that responded with the "go to an international test site" ... come
on guys .. get real .. Pay thousands for travel or take another $200 (or now
300) test.  Anyone smart enough to be pursuing their CCIE knows the answer
to that question!


Thanks,

Tony

Re: IRB and CRB [7:2476]

2001-04-29 Thread andyh

CRB - route OR bridge on a per-protocol basis

IRB - route and bridge in whatever combination you wish

these technologies are (I would imagine) rarely used these days, anyone use
much real bridging out there still (aside from SR/TLB maybe)?  I would think
that most bridging is done with switches these days, and the IRB is done
with ISL-attached routers or L3 cards (RSP/MSM/MSFC)

is it possible to mix and match flash cards? [7:2518]

2001-04-29 Thread xc

For flash cards (i.e. Cat5000, 1750, 7000 series, etc.), can you just mix
and match (for example, the a flash for a Cat5000 can be used on a 1750,
etc.)?

How about flash SIMM's (I don't think this is possible, but I have to ask)?

Re: CCIE written test questions [7:2497]

2001-04-29 Thread Trey Webb

1) In short Fast Link Pulse (FLP) is used to perform autonegotiation on
twisted pair
media. For details see:

See:
http://cisco.com/warp/public/473/46.html

2) TCP slow start is flow control mechanism employed by the sender. This
allows the
sender to probe the maximum window size it may use for transmisson without
significantly
impacting throughput. It starts by transmitting data in one window chunks of
a size
specified by the lowest MSS advertised by each host. The transmitter calls
this window
the congestion window (cwnd). For each ACK received the congestion window is
increase by
one. Only cwnd segments may be outstanding at any one time. This increases
until packets
begin to be dropped. This results in an exponential growth of the number of
segments
that will be transmitted before recieving an ACK.

See:
- TCP/IP illustrated by W. Richard Stevens
- "Congestion Avoidance and Control," V. Jacobson, ACM SIGCOMM-88, August
1988.


3) The CSU/DSU should go into loopback mode and instead of passing data
through its
framer and on to the DTE it should send the data back to the network. This
is useful for
circuit testing.

Switching Exam 504 [7:2513]

2001-04-29 Thread John Andrews

Hello,

I am getting ready to test on this exam in a couple of weeks.  Would someone 
please tell me or give me some information please.

Right now to prepare, I am using the Boson switching tests and the Sybex
book.
 I have also read the CLSC book by Cisco Press.  I know it is outdated, but
it
still have alot of very very good info.

Will this be enough in anyones opinion?

Thanks,

Re: IS-IS: Default route for L1 router [7:2485]

2001-04-29 Thread Jerry Seven

Actually I have 1 L1/L2 which is in 12.1, and two L1 routers, one is in
11.3, another is also in 12.1 same as L1/L2, same result, no luck.

Here is the topology, the links are all ethernet:

   E0/1  F2/3 G1/2
G1/2
-- NSX(L1) --- Corvette(L1/L2) --
Boxster(L1) --

Here is related config(trimmed):
For NSX:

version 11.3
clns routing
interface Ethernet0/1
 ip address 192.20.20.2 255.255.255.0
 ip router isis
router isis
 net 01.0050.731d.1941.00
 is-type level-1
NSX#show ip ro
i*L1 0.0.0.0/0 [115/10] via 192.20.20.1, Ethernet0/1
NSX#

For Corvette:
version 12.1
clns routing
interface GigabitEthernet1/2
 ip address 118.60.0.2 255.255.0.0
 ip router isis
 isis circuit-type level-1
interface FastEthernet2/3
 ip address 192.20.20.1 255.255.255.0
 ip router isis
 isis circuit-type level-1
router isis
 net 01.0030.b636.fe61.00

For Boxster:
version 12.1
clns routing
interface GigabitEthernet1/2
 ip address 118.60.0.1 255.255.0.0
 ip router isis
router isis
 net 01.00d0.97f2.8c8c.00
 is-type level-1
Boxster#sh ip ro
i*L1 0.0.0.0/0 [115/10] via 118.60.0.2, GigabitEthernet1/2
Boxster#

I have loopback if defined in each router, but I don't think it's related to
this.

Thanks,
Jerry

I have 8 2500's, two 2600's and a 4500M, all with Kingston Flash and DRAM
and I have never had a problem with any of them.

I need to upgrade some of my lab routers to handle 12.0 and 12.1.  These
IOS's are resource hogs, so apparently I need to pump up the DRAM and flash.
So, has anybody tried out some of those non-Cisco approved DRAM and flash
units?  Don't worry, none of my routers are going to be used in a production
environment.  But I won't do it if these units completely blow some circuit

Yes I have and no there have been no blatant problems. I buy from
memoryx.com There are several other sources as well.

In a production environment, al that happens is that your Smartnet is
rendered null and void. If Cisco finds out.

Subject:CCIE written test questions [7:2497]

Hello all,

I have three questions that I cannot seem to find the answer to. ANy of you
learned people out there would be very much appreciated if you could give me
your best shot at these. I have my written tommorow and these questions are
stuck in my craw;

What is Fast Link Pulse?

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/46.html
one of four documents that came up when searching CCO.
Auto negotiation for 10/100 ports - technical details

What is meant by TCP "Slow Start"?

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/759/ipj_3-3/ipj_3-3_futureTCP.html
one of 150 documents returned when searching CCO
"part of the recovery process when acks are not received for packets sent.
. In this mode the sender immediately retransmits the lost packet and then
halves its sending rate, continuing to send additional data as permitted by
the current TCP sending window. "
probably a bit more complex.


What is the result of sending a loop up signal to the CSU/DSU?

CL: CSU goes into a loop state - i.e. depending upon who is doing the
looping, data received by the CSU is sent back to the originator, rather
than passed on to the network. One of the telco  ( and router side )
troubleshooting techniques used to determine where carrier network problems
( if any ) may exist. Can also indicate if the CSU itself is bad.

There are probably other things that happen as well.

HTH

Best wishes on your exam.

I eagerly await any input.

Thanks,
Scott

Re: IS-IS: Default route for L1 router [7:2485]

2001-04-29 Thread andyh

I would go with what works in your lab!!

seriously - try putting 11.3 on both routers, then 12.1 on both, and then
reverse the 11.3/12.1 (so 12.1 on L1 and 11.3 on L2) and see what happens.
I would imagine that you can get away with not enabling CLNS if you have
IS-IS on just a P2P link - maybe not in a multi-router environment - are you
running off loopback interfaces, or just the physicals?

I have had trouble with this in the past - albeit in a lab environment.  I
am always dubious about adding default-originates to Link-State protocols,
especially in an ISP enviroment where you want a default-free environment -
messing with outbound route-maps is a pain in the arse .

I will set this up in the lab again and see if I can nail it down once and
for all.

Re: BGP Communities [7:2486]

2001-04-29 Thread andyh

communities are a nice way to add an additional attribute to a route,
independant of the "routing" attributes if you like - I like to think of it
as "colouring" a route.

what I have done in the past is use different communities for different
types of route - I map communities to different "types" of route - for
example, routes learned from:

* downstream transit customers

* upstream transit providers

* per-geographical location

* per-"preferance" - for instance if you multi-home a customer and wish to
have a "customer-preferred" route and a "customer-backup" route

the nice thing is that you can create internal policies based on the source
or type of route - for instance if you multi-home to two transit providers,
you can route-map a local-preference to each provider's routes, and that
will propagate thru you iBGP network without having to mess with AS_PATHs or
prefixes, etc.

hope that makes sense

check out:

http://www.as3257.net/html/communities.htm

for an example of how communites are implemented in the real world - some
sample Cisco comfigs also

Re: How to study for CIT [7:2463]

2001-04-29 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer

Chapter 2 of the Cisco Press CIT book started life as an edited version of 
the Internetworking Technology Overview. If you know your technology, you 
don't need that chapter. It is not taught in the CIT class, though it is 
included as an appendix to the student manual.

You should concentrate on the other chapters, especially ISDN. The test has 
a bunch of ISDN questions, including quite a few things you'll never see, 
at least not in the US. ISDN troubleshooting can be different in other 
countries, I realize. You probably already know about my flash cards, but 
just in case you don't, see this URL:

http://www.priscilla.com/cit/toc.html

Good luck!

DoS Attacks come in many shapes and sizes, all TCP Intercept Lists would do 
is stop "SYN" Floods, which is indeed one valid type of DoS, but it is not 
the same as ICMP floods.  There are also UDP floods as well.

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/22.html

This should help you out on understanding some more DoS types.  There are 
also DDoSes yes, the "script kiddies" strike back using distributed 
systems.  Yeah!  ;)

Re: OT- Another cool thing about Cisco (Re: Cisco fire staff) [7:2487]

2001-04-29 Thread xc

I agree that there may be other reasons to what Chambers is doing.  Appease
shareholders by forgoing his salary?  Perhaps.

But, again, I would go back to my argument from before - that it's all
relative.  Companies always get sued when their stock price crashes.
Exhibit #1 - all thosedotcoms, which crashed and burned faster than Mir.
But you hardly ever see any of those execs giving up any salary willingly.
Whenever execs lose any kind of compensation, it is almost always due to a
mandate from the Board of Directors,  and the execs fight it tooth and nail.
Chambers and company gave it up voluntarily.  Regardless or whether he may
have done it to appease ticked-off-shareholders, he still did what very few
other company execs are willing to do, and for that I can say that he is a
relatively good guy.

IS-IS: Default route for L1 router [7:2485]

2001-04-29 Thread Jerry Seven

Hi,

I have a question on case study on Doyle P.655.  It says that in order to
have a default route for IS-IS L1 router, the L1/L2 can have CLNS routing
enabled, or have the following command:

default-information originate

My question is after tried this in my lab, I found even WITHOUT this command
L1 router still got the L1 0.0.0.0/0 created, after I checked with IS-IS
database, L1/L2 router actually doesn't have it included in LSP, so it seems
that L1 router is able to parse that ATT bit and automatically create it in
routing table.  I don't have CLNS routing enabled either.  The IOS version
on L1 router is 11.3 and on L1/L2 is 12.1.

After searching on CCO, the explaination of "default-information originate"
command made me more confused, it says the default is only advertised in L2
LSPs if without a route-map, but in Doyle's case study router Brussels uses
this command and send it to Amsterdam which is a L1 route, which one is
correct ...

Any help is appreciated,

Jerry

RE: OFF TOPIC -Job Offer without Interview?? [7:2369]

2001-04-29 Thread Howard C. Berkowitz

Unfortunately, you are running into something endemic to the DC area, 
especially the Federal government. Agencies have head count 
restrictions, but still need staffing.  So, there have evolved a 
class of brokers that rent out people to the using organizations. 
The brokers often mark up your rate by 100% or more, although they do 
have to float receivables for 60 days or more.

Becoming a Cisco partner just needs the right certificated people, 
which, at the lower level, could be the principals.  As I remember, 
though, continued partner status also means a certain level of sales. 
A pure body shop won't have equipment sales.  Unfortunately again, 
it's often easier for government agencies to deal with a small 
business reseller, perhaps under minority business 8(a) setasides -- 
they can just go make small purchases without complex procurement.

Don't expect any real support from your direct employer, but keep an 
open mind about the client.  I spent three good solid years at the US 
Labor Department as an ostensibly "temporary contractor," which is 
where I really broke into system programming and networking. Some 
clients exploit the system, but others recognize that it's really 
their job to motivate the contractors and can be quite decent to 
them.  Good clients may find loopholes for such things as training -- 
they can't pay your salary to attend an offsite class, but they may 
have in-house classes and let you "drop in" -- even with credit.

Re: X21 interconnectivity issue with MUX [7:2398]

2001-04-29 Thread Gareth Hinton

My last e-mail was one of those mouth engaged before brain e-mails. I'm
travelling at the moment, but hopefully will be able to post this before too
many people shoot me down in flames.

If you're using X21, then at the physical layer there will be no DCD, CTS
etc. I had gone off on a tangent. Forgive me there was a lot more RS232
around when I last used MUX's.
As far as I am aware the only handshaking for X21 will be Control and
Indicate. If the MUX is not providing the correct signalling for this, the
answer may be to loop control to indicate (back towards the router - May
mean you have to make an additional female to male cable unless there is
already an additional patch).
Obviously you should have to do this for both routers.

I am struggling to remember the pin-outs, but what you need to do is wire:
Control A - Indicate A
Control B - Indicate B

Remember I'm talking about a loop back to the router just to fool it into
thinking it's seeing the other end, not any type of cross.

For some reason the following sticks in my mind, but I would definitely do a
search for X21 pin-outs before making a cable:

3 - 5
10 - 12

An X21 breakout box would make things easier if you can get hold of one. If
you can get the MUX's to pass Control and Indicate it would be even better.

Anybody else - Feel free to chip in. I know the above works, but I would be
interested if anybody knows whether there could be side effects (loss of
hardware flow control cause any problems?)

Regards,

Gaz

If you had to select just one answer I would say DTE as there are also

If you want to be really picky you could say there are routers acting as DCE
also, but
this usually requires some additional configuration and is not usally the

Perhaps not the books themselves, or not in so many words, but ISTR that
the NDA, or perhaps another agreement that you "sign" online, says that
cisco may strip you of your right to use the CC.. title if you're

Switch command questions [7:2477]

2001-04-29 Thread Hunt Lee

I tried to practice some switching commands on the BCMSN book with my
switch (2924XL), but I found I lot of commands is completely different
from the BCMSN book.

   
BCMSN   My switch

e.g.1.  To assign ports to a VLAN:   interface ethernet
0/1  interface ethernet 0/3  
   
vlan-membership static 3switchport access vlan 3

e.g.2   To enable PortFastspantree
start-forwardingspantree portfast
 

Is this because of the different IOS version?  Or what do I have to do
so that I can make my switch to use the same commands as the BCMSN
book.  Can anyone please shed some light on this?

IRB and CRB [7:2476]

2001-04-29 Thread Dennis Laganiere

I'm trying to make sure I've got these two straight.  Here are my notes, and
I appreciate any feedback on these two bridging techniques:


Concurrent Routing and Bridging (CRB)

Normally, a networking device either bridges or routes protocols across all
of its interfaces.  With CRB you can bridge protocols on some interfaces and
route different protocols on other interfaces.  You cannot route and bridge
the same protocol on a router.  

The major limitation to CRB is that you cannot receive a bridgeable frame
and route it, or inversely, receive a routed packet and bridge the frame.
The two are separate and cannot be forwarded to each other.


Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB)

IRB allows the router to bridge and route the same protocol on a router.  In
order to use IRB you create a Bridged Virtual Interface (BVI).  After the
BVI is configured, the router can send routable protocols that were bridged
to the BVI to be routed.  For example, an IP packet arrives on a routers
interface as a bridged protocol.  The destination is out another interface
that is not configured for bridging.  The router then sends the packet to
the appropriate interface to be routed.  With IRB you must configure the
protocols that you want the BVI to be able to route. 

IRB can be especially useful as a means of connecting bridged and routed
networks during network migrations when the two types of networks must
communicate.  It provides a border checkpoint for the two networks to pass
through.

Can you configure two 2600 T1CSU/DSU back-to-back direct [7:2473]

2001-04-29 Thread Ruihai An

Cisco web site has a "Using the Cisco 2524-2525 Back-to-Back".   I am trying
to test the same configuration on two 2600 with internal T1 CSU/DSU.   With
the special cable, the interface is up/up, but I can not PING any IP
addresses, even the IP address on the local interface. Anyone knows why ?

Re: 500-CS...HELP!! [7:2414]......here is my 500-CS config [7:2472]

2001-04-29 Thread Fred Danson

I don't think your problem has anything to do with the "no exec" command in 
your config. I also use the "no exec" command for my async ports and it 
works great.

I think the problem lies within these commands.

ip host R1 2003 1.1.1.1
line 1
no exec
monitor
transport input telnet
transport output telnet

Notice that the port you specified was 2003. Port 2003 maps to line 3, not 
line 1. You don't have anything configured for line 3, so the reverse telnet 
session will not work for it. I would either try changing the port to 2001 
or change the "line 1" command to "line 1 3"

Let me know if this does any good.

Fred

Bill, it was like this in 2000 still , then they went EIGRP. I don't know
about the core but it makes one scary EIGRP network no areas !!. But the
EIGRP seems very stable touch wood.
Mind you, I remember Luc De Ghein in the Cisco TAC saying that none of the
ISP's he works with have more than one ISIS area. I am hoping this has
changed.

One IOS to find them.
One IOS to summarize them all
And in the routing table bind them.

Hi

You have one year from the day you passed the written to make your first
attpemt at the lab. You then have a total of three years from the time you
passed the written to pass the lab. You might want to schedule the lab on
the east coast as their wait times seem to be less. Also write
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and ask them for advice/help.

BTW, the written has a $300 price now...

As a general comment, you may want to remove or "" all 
passwords prior to submitting them to the list.  It is a best 
practice to do in general and you will need to do this whenever 
you submit anything to TAC.  Cisco's TAC developed a macro that 
will list a series of troubleshooting friendly commands such 
as "show run", "show start", "show interfaces", etc.  This 
command will also strip out all incriminating information, such 
as passwords.  The command is "show tech".  Unfortunately, your 
version of IOS does not support this command.

> !
> interface Loopback 0
> ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255

As a good practice, you may want to put a different (non-
publicly routable) IP address here.  Try something from the RFC 
1918 series, such as 192.168.254.254 /32 .  There is no other 
reason than it is a good practice.  Besides, if you ever needed 
to get to the host on the Internet that owns IP addr 1.1.1.1, 
you will only go as far as your loopback address:-)

> !
> ip name-server 255.255.255.255
> ip host R1 2003 1.1.1.1

Is the host table entry above the one you are trying to use?  
If so, does it correspond to the port on the CS-500 that you 
have R1 plugged into?  Based upon the layout of my CS-516, I 
would say that if you attempted to type "R1" at the term server 
command line, router R1 better be plugged into the 3rd port. 


> snmp-server community
> !

Why don't you just set the console line to "transport input 
all"?

> line 1
> no exec
> monitor
> transport input telnet
> transport output telnet

If you notice above and below, you will see the command, "no 
exec".  This is what is precluding you from doing anything 
useful on this box.  With "no exec" enabled, you will not get 
executive mode at the line.  At this point, it might just be 
easier to get rid of the "no exec" from each of the lines.  
Also, if you set "transport input all" and "transport output 
all", you will see the other lines on transport disappear as 
well.  In order to fix this problem, you will need to go to 
line configration mode for each line and type, "exec".  While 
you are there, type "transport input all" and "transport output 
all"

How to study for CIT [7:2463]

2001-04-29 Thread Albert Lu

Hello Group,

I'm currently starting on my final CCNP exam, which is CIT. This seems like
quite a strange beast to study for, compared to the other exams which
focused on configuration.

It seems like it mainly concentrates on show and debug commands. If that is
true, how in depth do I need to know the show and debug outputs?

I'm using CIT book by Laura Chappell, and Chapter 2 is one big chapter
(100pages). It seems like it's missing from the actual CIT course. Am I
correct?

Thanks

Albert

Question .. CCIE lab and scheduling! [7:2461]

2001-04-29 Thread Tony

I've got a question that someone here will know the answer to.

I took my CCIE written  last August and due to a busy work schedule and lots
of other certification requirements (AVVID, WLAN and other vendors) I have
not been able to schedule my lab.  Now I'm getting ready to change jobs and
will immediately be looking to
schedule my lab at the new company.  If the written test is only good for a
year ... when does this expiration kick in ? Is it based on
the day you TAKE the lab or when you sign up to take the lab?  With the long
wait to get into the lab will I be required to spend another $200 if my lab
can't happen before August? I'm sure someone who has taken the lab has been
through this same scenario
already.

Thanks for your input ..


Tony

Re: OFF TOPIC -Job Offer without Interview?? [7:2375]

2001-04-29 Thread Tony

Yep .. It's basically a SCAM ... It will be contract .. it will be short
term .. and it probably will be to fulfill some contractual
requirement to have a CCNP onsite (at the real customers site). This could
end up bad in a few ways .. Since you will be working
for this fool that called you, he is the one that is obligated to pay you
(not the customer site you will be working at). The next problem
is that you have no idea what they want you to do! This guy and the customer
could be assuming that a CCNP means you can do some things that you CAN'T do
(nothing against your skill set, but I see more GREEN network guys out there
today than I did 5 years ago and exponentially worst as you go back
further). You could show up and have someone tell you that your job will be
installing and configuring 20 DSLAMs and integrating them into their
existing Newbridge ATM switch (now how much experience would you have doing
that?? maybe you do .. but I'm thinking probably not). If your not working
now and don't have a job lined up that would
be in jeopardy if you take this one then by all means try it !! It could be
a nice reality check or a lesson in what NOT to do next time!

RE: Cisco to Ravlin IPSEC Card [7:1868]

2001-04-29 Thread Clare, Charles

Thanks Matt for your reply.

The card I am using is the http://www.redcreek.com/products/ipsec_card.html

It is a network card that handles IPSEC.  Currently clients attach to this
card via Ravlin Soft (http://www.redcreek.com/products/ipsec_card.html) want
I want to do it to replace Ravlin soft clients with Cisco routers running
IPSEC.

What model Ravlin are you using?  I have never heard of a Ravlin having a
IPSEC card.  The most common way of having Ravlins communicate is Ravlin to
Ravlin through a secure VPN between the two.  The router just forwards the
packets to the proper destination.  (IE packets sent from the Ravlin use the
Ravlins remote IP address in the header and thats what the router uses to
determine where to send the packet.)  I need some more information to know
what exactly you want done.

RE: OFF TOPIC -Job Offer without Interview?? [7:2369]

2001-04-29 Thread Greg Macaulay

Hey Group,

Thanks for all the input -- I really do appreciate it.

Just to add a few facts to this -- the company that called me -- is a Cisco
SILVER partner -- not simply a pure unadulterated head-hunter -- sort of a
hybrid (like EIGRP!! ).

Of course it goes without saying that -- as one person said -- it's an
on-the-job-interview. If I -- or any of the others who report on day 1
aren't acceptable -- then we simply are not there on Day 2.  But what does
it say about the Silver Partner?? Is this guy honest?? If he fails to
properly screen the people he sends to the client -- isn't he -- at the very
least -- intellectually dishonest?? And if that's true -- how would he treat
his employees?? Would he promise the moon (e.g. oh yeah, paychecks every two
weeks) and then not come through??

Who is our loyalty to go towars?? The client -- who we know is being given
less than bargained for -- or the guy who's paying for our salary?? I
already know the practical answer -- but somewhere in those Cisco books we
all study -- I'm sure it also says that we are to have honesty and integrity
in our dealings with clients. Doesn't it?? Oh well. . . .

Thanks again to all of you for your time in answering.

CPE seems a bit general to fit the description.

Even using a DCE cable the router still needs a Clock rate before becoming a
DCE, so surely it's going to be (a) - DTE.

Re: X21 interconnectivity issue with MUX [7:2398]

2001-04-29 Thread Gareth Hinton

Long time since I've messed with the Mux's, but thought I'd have a go as
replies seem to be a little scarce.
At the very worst you can console yourself with the fact that you're not the
only one who hasn't got a clue.

Not sure whether you were aware that both CTS and DCD are both originated by
the DCE, and depending on the flow control set up, are reliant on the
distand end MUX. Do you have a good circuit to the distant mux?
Or, do you have a X21 breakout box so you can force DCD and CTS to see if
this brings the circuit up.
Failing that you could connect DTR to DCD and CTS at the router to see if
that brings it up.

So in answer to your question, CTS being low, probably isn't the reason for
DCD being low. It is more likely that there is a problem with the MUX config
or the link which is causing both to be low.

Regrds,

Gareth

2001-04-29 Thread xc

When I mentioned all those other companies like Sun and HP, I hope I didn't
come off as trying to bash them and implying that Cisco was somehow better
than they were.  Those companies may well have chosen to respond to the
economic downturn by taking care of their employees in their own way.

But I think it is safe to say that Cisco has acted in a much more humane
manner than places like Marchfirst and the dead dotcoms.   I tell you, not
only denying severance benefits (or providing severance checks that bounce),
but also refusing to pay workers their backwages and expenses, it doesn't
get much more dishonorable than that.

2001-04-29 Thread xc

Stunt, maybe.  But still better than nothing.  For example, off the top of
my head, I can't recall the CEO of any other company which has undergone
major layoffs do anything comparable.  Craig Barrett - Intel, Scott
McNealy - Sun, Carly Fiorina - HP, Mike Armstrong - AT&T, Jurgen Schrempp -
Daimler Chrysler, Bernie Ebbers - MCIWorldcom  --- I haven't heard any of
them do anything comparable.   This group of companies is probably
responsible for more than 75,000 layoffs.

Like I said, I don't begrudge execs making it big when times are good.  What
I am sick and tired of is when the pointy-haired bosses continue to live it
up when times are bad and headcount is being slashed left and right.

So is Chamber's move symbolic?  Yeah, probably so.  Sure, he can easily
afford to give up his salary.  But he didn't have to do it, nobody put a gun
to his head.  And like I said, I don't see any other company exec's doing
the same thing, and just like so many other things in life, it's all
relative.  So you could say that Cisco is a cool company, relatively
speaking.
