2001-07-31 Thread Mohammed Saro

i have acase and i want some1 to help me to solve it a company has two sites
they want to have dedicated line with 128 kbps on site 1 and to make an ISDN
dial backup to the ISP then site 2 is connected to site 1 with dedicated line
of 128kbps and they have ISDN line their but they face sometimes problems
with
their line in site 1 so they need in case of failure of the ddicated liune
betwenn their site 1 and the ISP and the failure of site 1 ISDN backup to
dial
the ISP they want the ISDN line of site 2 to dial to the ISP and will be in
this case the gateway of two sites


the question now how can i trigger dial on ISDN line in site 2 in case of
failure of dedicated then failure of ISDNline of site 1 with the caution that
the bri interface always up up spoofing

RE: Foundation Exam Opinion [7:14353]

2001-07-31 Thread Johan Hjalmarsson

When I wrote for my CCNP I took the Foundation Exam plus the CIT Exam.

The Foundation Exam was divided into four sections!?
One section for each one of the "normal" single tests and one with mixed
questions. You don't get any referens to which section your in, but I
thought this was pretty clear just reading the first question.
The test is longer and has more questions than one individual test, but on
the other hand, it's shorter and has fewer questions than the three tests
alltogether.

VoIP Traffic Shaping Config [7:14451]

2001-07-31 Thread Oletu Hosea Godswill CCNA, CCDA, CCNP.

Hi folks,

Hope this newsgroup does not make me lazy!!!
hehehehehe

I have a problem guys.  I have a Cisco 3640 configured
with an FXS voice module (2 voice ports).  I am
contending with a 28.8k link to my head office.  I do
voice and data on that link.  However, i need to
restrict my voice calls to one at a time.  I have done
some QOS on that link. In addition, i want the two
voice ports on the FXS VIC to be operational.  Is
there a command which i can use to disable one voice
port automatically when i am using the second port?
What i really mean is to have one port disabled as
soon as i pick up the handset attached to the other
port.  You get what i mean?  Well the reason behind
this is that i don't want my colleagues (who think
28.8k is a heaven)to use more than one handset at a
time to call the head office.  But i want port 3/1/0
and port 3/1/1 to be active so that any can be used at
any time (not simultaenously).

Regards!!!
Oletu

Two CPA2503 questions... [7:14445]

2001-07-31 Thread James Willard

Hello,

I recently convinced my employer to give me a Cisco CPA2503 (the white box
CiscoPro router) whose power supply died. I have two questions.

First of all, before I check into finding a replacement power supply, I read
on this list a long way back (probably 1999ish) about someone who had made
an outboard 2500 series power supply from a PC power supply. Unfortunately,
I can't get a search of the archives to turn up that post that I remembered.
Does anyone happen to have that link, or perhaps is the original poster
still lurking?

Secondly, is it true that you can order a replacement boot ROM for the
CPA2500 series and make them able to load standard 2500 series images? If
so, does Cisco charge for these boot ROMs, or are they like the other
routers where you pay for shipping only?

Thanks,

James Willard, CCNA

RE: 32MB flash for 2620, 2621 ? True or false? [7:14357]

2001-07-31 Thread Baker, Jason

what is the purpose for 32 meg flash in 2600 ? The largest IOS i have seen
fits easily on 16.

I mean the enterprise + with FW et al feature set is only 12 Meg, plenty of
space left.

the only reason that comes to mind is so store multiple IOS images in flash,
which seems pointless anyway
because if the flash chip has problems you loose both of them anyway seeing
they are on one chip, not like the 2500
and 3600 series.

RE: GRE and routing protocols [7:14432]

post your configs.

in the abstract what is happening is that the tunnel endpoints are
referencing an address that can only be known via the dynamic routing
protocol. works fine with statics because the static destination is always
"there"

if you do a debug ip routing you will see the reports of what exactly is
happening.

RE: Frame-Relay Switch intf-type DCE/DTE [7:14434]

common misunderstanding. clock rate should be configured on the router where
the DCE end of the cable resides. this can be different than the port that
is the frame relay interface-type DCE

a frame switch is a DCE device with respect to a router. It can be a DTE
type with regard to another frame switch.

I have a hub and spoke combination going without any problems.  But the only
weird thing happening is that on my Frame-Relay switch (2522), I have to set
the "frame-relay intf-type" to DCE for all the serial interfaces I'm using,
otherwise the layer 2 connections won't come up on the hub and spoke
routers.

Should this be happening?

I have 3 DTE ends and 1 DCE end of cables plugging into my switch.  I
thought
if I had the DTE side of the cable plugged into my S0 of my frame relay
switch, then on the interface configuration mode for "S0", I would specify
the
intf-type to be DTE.  And vice versa if the DCE side of the cable is plugged
into my switch.

(WS-X5506) that isnt a cisco part.  Ive had the worst time looking for
this RAM.  I dont see any on ebay and I have actually found it elsewhere
for about $350-just too much.  Im hoping I can use some other typical
SIMM.  Thanks for any help.

I have two issues with your e-mail.

First, your company wants ME to pay $250.00 to beta test your product.  I
think not!!!  I am not saying it has to be free, but $250.00 is WAY to
MUCH!!!  Maybe $50.00 to $75.00.  Basically, you expect me to provide you
with VALUABLE feedback on your product and you want to charge me "an arm and
a leg" for providing with VALUABLE beta testing feedback.  I normally charge
customers for the service you expect ME to pay for.

Second, the e-mail did not have an e-mail address in the To: field.  I

Frame-Relay Switch intf-type DCE/DTE [7:14434]

2001-07-31 Thread Roger Sohn

I have a hub and spoke combination going without any problems.  But the only
weird thing happening is that on my Frame-Relay switch (2522), I have to set
the "frame-relay intf-type" to DCE for all the serial interfaces I'm using,
otherwise the layer 2 connections won't come up on the hub and spoke routers.

Should this be happening?

I have 3 DTE ends and 1 DCE end of cables plugging into my switch.  I thought
if I had the DTE side of the cable plugged into my S0 of my frame relay
switch, then on the interface configuration mode for "S0", I would specify
the
intf-type to be DTE.  And vice versa if the DCE side of the cable is plugged
into my switch.

I've configured a point-to-point GRE tunnel between two routers.  Works fine
with static routes, however, once I turn on RIP I get the following in about
30 seconds.

%TUN-5-RECURDOWN: Tunnel0 temporarily disabled due to recursive routing
1d01h: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Tunnel0, changed
state to

I've read about the recursive routing problem with IP in IP, can someone

Jason is ABSOLUTELY correct!  I went into the BIOS specifically the CMOS
setup and just under the video card option, there is a halt option.  I
set it to "halt on: no errors".  After that, I unplugged both the
keyboard and mouse on my x86 clone.  Guess what, the Unix box boot up
just fine. 

On a side note, how did Jason know how to do this?  Man, he is good.

Ah, good point.  Now why would it not care which OS?  The bios.  Crapola 
bios which give you very little flexibility (enter most commercial packaged 
PCs with their crap bios) have this problem.  If you get a good Asus 
Motherboard (actually a LOT of vendors give you this flexibility), their 
bios have this option called

Halt On Error:  All Error

Change it to "No Errors"
Your PC will easy POST without the need for a keyboard after this 
change.  For FreeBSD, you probably want to modify the kernel to "always 
force on" the keyboard.  You can also recompile the kernel to enable a 
serial console so it works like the bad-boy Unix Workstations.  (need a 
null serial modem cable and you are ready to rock and console  :)  )

Reason why you want FreeBSD to "always force on" the keyboard.  If you do 
not plug in the keyboard, let the box boot, and then plug the keyboard back 
in, you cannot type anything in.  With "always force on", it will work 
afterwards.  Of course, this is only the case if you really messed up the 
box (kernel panic, ip misconfiguration, firewall rules that kick you off) 
and your boss forgot to buy that access console server.

Linux also has a serial console capability IIRC.  If anyone here learns 
basic FreeBSD on their own and needs help for doing some of these more 
advanced features, I will easily lend a hand.

RE: Intermittent connectivity loss [7:14416]

2001-07-31 Thread Daniel Cotts

I understand you to say that there are two 5505s on each floor. Half of the
users on each floor connect to each 5505 through a single vlan. Each 5505
connects to a 6509.
Has anyone changed the config of any of the switches lately? Any hardware
changes?
Thinking intermittant hardware failure.
Do all the users on a floor who loose connectivity connect to the same 5505?
Does the aggregate of all users on all floors who loose connectivity connect
to the 6509 through the same blade via their 5505s? Any error messages on
the 6509? What's the uptime? What does a show log provide?
What is the bandwidth of the links between the 5505s and the 6509?
If gig, do you have any spare GBICs? I have heard reports of failing units.
Any construction in the building? How about lots of dust in the wiring
closets?
Any commonality to the electrical feeds for the switches? UPS or not?
Can you log error messages to a syslog server?

Great! Unfortunately my Linux box has an Intel AL440LX motherboard and I
can't find any
place in the BIOS to disable the keyboard (or "halt on error, except
keyboard" which is
another popular BIOS option). Disabling the keyboard is simply not possible
on EVERY x86
clone.

Re: LMI question [7:14206]

2001-07-31 Thread Michael L. Williams

With Frame Relay, even though you can configure sub interfaces to help with
routing protocol issues and bandwidth allotment, there is still only one
physical connection between your router and your frame provider.  The LMI is
configured only for that physical connection, not sub-interfaces.

2001-07-31 Thread Baker, Jason

nothing to do with the operating system on intel boxes.

If you set your BIOS to stop on all errors if no keyboard is plugged in your
box will not boot whether it is NT or linux.

If you set BIOS to ignore these errors the system will boot.

Re: Doubt... [7:14233]

2001-07-31 Thread Michael L. Williams

I'm totally speculating here  Please let me wrong if this doesn't
jive...  it seems to me that  the number of packets in the queue
(outgoing) wouldn't be anymore for 50% or 99% until there are more packets
attempting to go over the wire than is allowed (i.e. there won't be any
use for the queue except in passing as the packets are sent out as fast as
they are coming to the interface to be sent out)...

I read Jenny's post and I agree with her that utilization is = packets/some
amount of time..and that things tend to get bursty, etc.  so if
depends on if you're looking at a 1 sec avg. or a 1 minute avg. utilization
as to whether a ping at any given moment would actually go through as fast
as any other time.

Re: HSRP for a switch [7:14164]

2001-07-31 Thread Michael L. Williams

This is possible with 2 sups in the same chassis, however, if you have two
separate chassis with their own Sups, then I don't think it's possible to
have one act as a "mirror" for the other.  You could configure the RSMs
(MSFC's, whatever) with HSRP, but that wouldn't do what you said you wanted.
Even with HSRP, the "other" interfaces on each RSM would need to be
configured with their own IPs, etc, thus not satisfying your requirement to
have "a second switch with a copy of the primary's configuration".  Unless
you have the end devices connected to both switches, your screwed anyway if
a sup dies (unless you have a redundant sup installed in which case you're
not utilizing the "other" switch).

I do not believe that what you're looking for is possible with to completely
separate switches like that.

You will need to do troubleshooting at two levels here(Network and Datalink.
When these users loose connectivity, what is the furthest that they can
reach (traceroute out to the NET, see how far they got, from the
workstation).  You can also do some datalink layer troubleshooting by having
a console logging one of the 5505's for example.  This could be spanning
tree pruning.  Has any new equipment been added, any new ports turned up in
the past 3 days ?

Can the users ping one another, can they ping the switch.  Can you reach the
switch?

I didn't write it...I think I know who did, but I'm not certain -- I 
don't pick the challenge questions. If it's the author I think, he's 
very well qualified but not a regular on this list.

As Priscilla points out, writing good questions is not simple. The 
CertZone questions have a slightly different slant than the CCIE 
written exam, as many people have pointed out that they sometimes 
seem harder than the actual exam.  Our questions are meant to be part 
of an overall CCIE preparation experience, not just for the written 
but for the lab as well, and to be used along with the practice 
scenarios and the white papers.   In my experience, the hardest part 
of writing good CertZone questions is writing the explanation, which 
is meant to teach.  The actual CCIE written questions don't have the 
requirement to coordinate with an explanation.

Intermittent connectivity loss [7:14416]

2001-07-31 Thread Don Oxman

I must admit this is my first question posted to the group, though I've been 
a lurker for a long time.  Here it is:

We have workstations on 10 different floors (each floor divided in half, 
each half a different subnet), all connected to 5505's (20 in total).  From 
the 5505's fiber goes to a 6509, then ultimately to the WAN via ATM.  The 
servers all plug into the 6509.  So far, so good.

For the past 3 days we have had workstations (not all, but about 50%)on 
every floor lose connectivity to the network, whereby all of our NT and 
NetWare servers are unavailable and web browsing is gone.  This has happened 
a total of 6 times, and there doesn't appear to be a pattern to the time or 
network utilization.  Most times the users have to reboot, though sometimes 
they can reconnect without a reboot.

Can anyone help steer me in the right direction?  Our WAN guys can't help, 
and I have a feeling that it's going to be up to me to figure this one out.

Thanks a lot.

No keyboard? It depends.

While it's true that native UNIX workstations (Sun, HP, etc.) will run

Intel x86 boxes I have encountered require you to plug in a keyboard or the

Congratulations on passing the CCIE Written!

I guess you might be out of luck.  Here are some of your options

a)  continue searching for a free version of TACACS+ for Windows.
b)  Buy Cisco Secure ACS.
c)  Get an old machine and install Linux, Solaris x86, FreeBSD, NetBSD, or
OpenBSD and grab tacacs+ from
http://www.gazi.edu.tr/tacacs/
d)  Port the code yourself from Unix to Windows.

Obviously there is a certain time host inherent to the last three
options.  You should certainly weigh out the costs, as ALL of the options
have an inherent cost to it, even a).  Personally, I think learning Unix is
not so bad (maybe I am biased after all of these years) and may only take
perhaps a week of your time (if you are a fast learner, one day) if you
want to just get TACACS+ on it.  You can consider multi-booting, but then
you will have to take out more time to make sure you do not fry your
machine.  I hope you do know a lot about partitioning on x86
hardware.  :)  It honestly is not that bad, win2k's bootloader is quite
friendly with booting the unices.  On the side, I do not think TACACS+ is a
requirement for the lab.  Not that it is a good reason to not learn
TACACS+.  Every CCIE should learn that eventually, on at least one platform.

If you install FreeBSD, you may run into issues compiling the code, I
patched it so it can work on it.  (not as hard as it sounds, only a small
line change).  If you choose that route, I can help you patch the code so
it will compile on FreeBSD.  Good luck!

Actually, Spanning Tree Protocol can give a worst-possible-case path
depending on the design of the network.  All Spanning Tree Protocol does in
terms of best path selection is determines the best path to the root bridge,
not to any layer 2 end-host.

Question
Spanning Tree protocol was designed to:

a) Simulate a layer 3 (link-state) routing protocol, efficiently forwarding
packets between layer two devices.

b) Dynamically determine best path selection for layer 2 devices.

c) Provide capability for SNA gateways to use duplicate MAC addresses,
enabling network redundancy.

d) Trunk multiple pathways effectively increasing inter-segment bandwidth by
multiples of the trunk paths.

e) Provide load balancing between redundant network connections.

2001-07-31 Thread Donald B Johnson jr

Yeah I thought loop-free would be a better selection of words than best.
My thinking is why would you set a bridge priority if it was done best and
dynamically.
I think either Doyle or Caslow or both ( can't remember ) illustrates
nicely why you would want to get involved in determining root bridge for
optimum path selection.
Maybe the author from cert zone could give us his thinking, he may be here.

Seriously, remember that you are picking the BEST answer. All answers but B 
are clearly made up. Remember that the author has to come up with 4 or 5 
feasible wrong answers. This is the hardest part of writing an exam. As an 
exam-taker, you can sometimes see this process at work and easily recognize 
which answers are the made-up wrong ones, as we can with this example.

As far as B being absolutely right, I'm thinking aloud here STP is 
definitely dynamic. It helps a switch or bridge dynamically work around 
loops in a network topology by creating a spanning tree. Perhaps that's 
what they meant by "best path." Also, path selection is based on cost, 
which is based on the bandwidth of a link, isn't it?

I would prefer that the answer was phrased a little differently. 
Perhaps something like "Dynamically enforces a loop-free topology for
layer 2 devices."  This would be a little more accurate, since STP
doesn't provide the best path between any two devices, it just tries to
guarantee a loop-free path.

The 2500 have a basic IOS stored on Boot ROMs.  If no IOS is present in
flash, then the router will boot to Config Helper mode (or boot helper,
or something like that) and you can use TFTP to transfer an image to
flash.  You said your routers have *no* flash.  I thought 2500s had some
built-in flash, but if they don't and you really don't have any flash
then you're hosed.   

Fortunately, 2500 flash probably isn't too expensive nowdays.

Good luck!

Can you ping the syslog server from the Cat?

If not, you may need to add a route so that the console knows how to get to

Re: MTU on the Internet [7:14380]

2001-07-31 Thread Peter Van Oene

There was actually some recent debate on this issue within the ISIS wg in
the IETF from some notable folks including Tony Li from Procket (ex
Juniper/Cisco).  In reality, there isn't a standard IP MTU in use which can
create some problems.  Some of the key issues include the use of private
addressing which breaks path MTU discovery and the ever more frequent use of
encapsulation strategies (IPSec/MPLS etc).  Some harmonization of this value
would certainly seem valuable.  Most major router vendors support MTU's up
to 9180 in size however, you see a lot of the following in the internet:
10/100 Ethernet devices at 1518, POS at 4470, FDDI at 4470 (less and less
FDDI) and GigE at  >4469, Greetings,

Looping up remote csu !! [7:14384]

2001-07-31 Thread Jeongwoo Park

Hi all

3600A--csu-private
line-csu--3600B

In this environment, I am at 3600A router. I was wondering if I could loop
up remote csu(3600B side) by configuring 3600A router instead of having
telco do that for me.
I remember that I have done this before between 7200 router and 3600 router.
I was also wondering if I could do  with even lower model of routers, such
as 2600s and 2500s.

Would it be possible?

Thanks

Re: Is loading IOS into 2500 with no Flash possible? [7:14375]

So how do you put the ios on them? (just curious) I've never had to
troubleshoot a 2500.  The only 2500 we have ever had, just sits there and
routes no problem...

The 2500 series can not do XMODEM.  Also, these are not run-from-RAM

I have 3 2500's that have 16meg RAM but no Flash memory. I had read

transfered to the box. There is also a option to load it into RAM and

Sounded good but when I boot to ROMMON, the xmodem command is not

RE: DNL Blackhole list for GroupStudy [7:14082]

2001-07-31 Thread James Wilson

Aloha Paul,

The double opt-in or confirmed opt-in is where you send a subscribe message
to the list, the list sends a response to the address being subscribed, and
the user has to modify and reply to that message before the subscription is
processed.  Done properly this defeats any automated subscription mechanisms
used by spam-ware.

Being able to read the mail via the web is great.  It is the posting from
websites than can be a can of worms to manage, depending on how it is
implemented.  The main thing is to keep it from being something that can be
scripted and abused by spam-ware in combination with auto-enrolling scripts.

Spammers are by nature lazy, greedy, and unethical.  They believe that
whatever is the easiest and cheapest for *them* is what is ok to do.  Make
it hard for them to spam this site and they will move along to someone elses
site which is not as well protected.

Making the first post by a new user have to be approved is easy to do with
Majordomo.  I'm not sure what software you are using, though.  An
alternative would be a five-day delay of posting permissions.  Since
spammers tend to have their accounts terminated fairly quickly for abuse, if
you require them to do a confirmed subscription and then delay them for a
week from posting, the odds are that their account will have been closed
down and they won't be able to post.  For the 99.9% good people who
subscribe, it will basically have them do what is very often recommended by
listmanagers: read the list traffic for a few days before you post - get a
feel for the audience and typical dialogue and what is appropriate for
discussion and what will likely get you flamed.

As for the various *BL type lists they have varying levels of success; the
MAPS list is no longer an option for those who don't want to pay for it
though, as MAPS now requires paid subscriptions.  The good ones to use are
the ones that block people doing direct MX posting from dialups.  These are
almost always someone using spamware, and more and more ISP's are actually
blocking outbound port 25 from their dialup pools because of it.

I'm really glad you are looking at this - of the various lists I'm on, with
the exception of the few spam messages sent here yours has the highest SNR
and some of the brightest minds in the industry.  It does say a lot for our
industry that the likes of Priscilla O, Howard B, et al freely give of their
time day in and day out.  (That includes the many other brilliant CCIE's and
CCIE's to be as well.)

Hey James,

Those are some good idea, but they have a few problems.  First, the majority
of the users of this list are on a newsfeed or read through the website.
These are very popular options I do not want to eliminate.

The CCIELAB list does require registered users before allowing the posting.
While this has eliminated spam, it has also caused about 10 legitimate
messages/day to be rejected - along with the one or two spam messages.

I think the solutions is approve all first-time posters.  After you have
posted a few messages, you will be allowed to post without approval.  Of
course, this will require substantial rewriting of the software.  I also
like the idea of hiding the e-mail address from the webfeed.  I hate to do
it, but it seems to be necessary.

What do you mean by "double opt-in" registration?

Take care,

Paul

I don't know what *should* happen, however I can confirm (from personal
experience) it is possible to have a somewhat working link with
mismatched lmi type.
If all the remote sites have cisco and HQ is ANSI I'd change HQ to cisco
for a start, although I think I remember ANSI has less overhead, at last
at lo! speed I think there's a significant difference; anyone can
confirm this ? I can't reach my stuff just now :(, but I remember a case
with IP terminals (like serial terminals but with ethernet, just capable
of doing telnet and print with reverse telnet) at 9600, screen refresh
was MUCH better with ansi (not counting compression).

I got laid off in April, and was considering a CCNP boot camp.  To make a
long story short, they guaranteed that I would get a CCNP for about $5,000
(half off).  Talking to recruiters, they said that they had candidates with
CCNPs with no experience that they just could not place.  Salary surveys and
word of mouth say that someone like myself with 3 years of hands on router
experience is worth about $10,000 a year more with a CCNP.  But that assumes
you are going to leave your present company and get a new job.  Unless your
present company rewards certs, you will have to look for another job to get
a pay increase.

Also, consider that classes may be at inconvient times and places.  You may
have to wait for a class to come to your town, or pay for travel and hotel
to get the time you want.

Lastly, you may need a big chunk of prep time.  The one I was considering
shipped you a big boadload of books to read, and you had to take delivery of
the books something like 8 weeks before the class or sign a waiver on the
guarantee.

So the CCNP is icing on the cake, but you have to have the cake (experience)
first.

If you look at the stats for CCIEs, they virtually all have 5 or more years
of hands on experience.  The moral of the story is get the experience.

Bummer! 
Reading that manpage I realized I did remember that "fact" wrong :(
The lower speed ecc. was a "encapsulation frame-relay" vs.
"encapsulation frame-relay IETF" issue, so please ignore my comments.
Now I'll return to my regulary scheduled foot-in-mouth.

I second that last part wholeheartedly!  Paul does not get thanked
enough for this service.  Think of the huge numbers of people worldwide
who have received certifications and some excellent free education
thanks to this list.  Of course, the participants should be thanked as
well, but without Paul, the list wouldn't even exist in the first
place.

Thanks,
John

No matter what you do, there will always be someone that's not happy
with
what you've done.  The more you try to accommodate, the more work you
undertake--and Rule #1 applies again.  Someone out there will not be
happy

Just let it go...  save yourself the headaches.  If people are that
unhappy,
let them unsubscribe.  It's that simple--and it requires very little
work on
your part.  You do too much already, keeping this going for how many
years

Re: ccnp bootcamp [7:14356]

2001-07-31 Thread Guy Russell

Typically, I would not advocate any Boot camp... They are good to help you
get to pass a test, but then you only have a paper... Not too useful in a
technical interview... Yes, companies dont trust paper anymore, you have to
prove it now!!!

But I can say I did attend a 2 day CCNA bootcamp. My company was going to
send me for training, but it had to be on a weekend... thus the boot camp. I
basically was going to see what kind of routers I should get for my own lab,
and to play with them first hand. Now I was going to give the guy a chance,
but wasnt really optimistic on the idea

Well, Was I surprised. The knowledge from the instructor was great, and
answered alot of questions, he also stayed late each day to let us play on
the routers etc...and ask questions as much as we wanted... He also showed
up early in case we had more questions after going over everything that
night before... I would have to say I would give this guy 2 thumbs up!!!

The company was IT Mentor

www.itmentor.com

now they do have a CCNP bootcamp, but its only held in California, but you
have access all day and night to their extensive lab!!! So big bonuses!!

Daniel Altbaum was the instructor, (sorry if I butchered the name) he also
does tech editing for Cisco press...
