Cisco mc3810 [7:35269]
hey all. I just bought an mc 3810. What's the going rate for one of these without any modules except the 2 serials and 1 ethernet that it comes with. I'd like to be able to use this in a home lab to do VOIP testing. Can I buy the FXS personality modules or do I need some sort of NM to put those cards into it. Thanks group!

Re: VPN 3000 Auth. with W2k ActiveDirectory? [7:35270]
Yes, it can be done. I've set up AD with RADIUS for authentication of dial-in users. I found a doc on cisco.com for the VPN5000 concentrator, it will probably tell you enough to figure it out. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/471/vpn5k-msias.shtml Good luck.

Re: Flash upgrade disaster [7:35184]
what switch did you use for xmodem ??? - Original Message - From: Wilson, Christian To: Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2002 7:26 PM Subject: Flash upgrade disaster [7:35184] Begging for help once again . . . I have upgraded the flash in a 3640 from the 8 Mb chip to a 16 Mb chip. I did this by installing the second, 16 Mb chip into slot 1 of the motherboard, leaving the original 8 Mb in slot 1, for a total of 24 Mb of flash memory. I then installed 12.1, which was the reason I needed to upgrade the flash. 12.1 went on without a hitch, but when the router was reloaded, it would run for about 30 minutes and then go into rommon mode. It did this repeatedly, so I removed the 8 Mb chip, installed the 16 Mb chip into slot 0, and then used xmodem to transfer 12.1 through the console, a painstaking two hour task. Now the file is on flash, but at reload the file is unable to decompress, returning these errors: Error: Uncompression of the image failed. invalid compressed data-format violated Error: zip decompress failed ***System received a software forced crash *** signal = 0x17, code = 0x7, context = 0x0 PC = 0x80008094, cause = 0x20, Status Reg = 0x3041f003 The crc checks are the same as displayed on the software centers web page. I have downloaded a new copy of the file and it still did not work. I put the original 8 Mb chip in slot 0 and removed the 16 Mb chip, reloaded a fresh 11.3 image, and received the same errors. What have I done??

Re: 6000 Hybrid vs Native [7:35216]
Sorry to spoil the party but I've had a problem with IOS on 6Ks. With version 12.1(3a)E4, using the console port would put the switch into rommon mode, the switch would keep running but you couldn't config it, it's a recognised bug I think. Apart from that though I think it simplifies things by having just the one set of commands and will be upgrading the Cat OS 6Ks to IOS Cheers Pat Michelle Loechel wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Can anyone comment on having used the native mode IOS feature on the 6000 series switches? Like/dislikes? Stability? Supportability, etc? Preference of hybrid or native?

Took the lab today at RTP. 4th time was the charm. I don't know where to begin. Might as well start with the thank you's. Thanks to Bruce, Val, and Fred at NetMasterClass. Thanks also to those on the list that I've either studied with or have helped me out in the past with problems. Thanks also to Paul for putting this great list together. As far as how I prepared, I might as well give the whole story. Started working on Cisco about 2 1/2 years ago after going though the Novell and MS Certs. After getting NA, DA, NP, and DP, I passed the CCIE written in October 2000. Without really knowing how to study or what to prepare for, I got my butt handed to me in January at RTP. Didn't know much more than your average CCNP would. Tried again in April, but BGP killed me, and again I didn't make it to day 2. After that, I found a study partner (Thanks Boris) and we worked pretty hard last summer. Did all the bootcamp labs, thought I knew everything I needed to. November 4 of 2001, figured I'd breeze through the lab. I don't know if it's true, but I heard the first couple of months with the new 1 day format had a very low pass rate. I know I could have used a couple more hours to finish. If anyone took the lab in Oct or Nov of last year and failed, don't be discouraged. I think they've scaled it back a little nowadays. Fast forwarding to today. After spending a week with Val, Bruce, and Fred at the NMC-1 course, and doing nothing but working on my speed, I felt pretty prepared. Everything in the Doyle Volume 1 and Bruce/Val's book made sense. Though running a little low on sleep, I felt good this morning. Roughly 4.5 hours into the test, we got lunch. At that point I was done with the IGP's and almost done with the EGP's. In other words about 2/3 of the way done, by my estimate. At 1:30 I was done, but needed to go back and work on 3 things I couldn't figure out. A little discussing with the proctor, and 2 of them were fixed. But then I think I read too much. I had solved a problem one way, but realized the wording of the question might change what they were looking for. Checking with the proctor, I got the impression that he really didn't like my solution. So there I am, 1.5 hours to go, and I'm making a somewhat major change :( Looked OK, but with 1/2 an hour to go, I noticed a 'neighborship' bouncing up and down :o 10 minutes to go, got it all working, but didn't get a chance to completely double check all my other work as time expired. I know I left 1 thing unconfigured (a 2 pointer), but started wondering if I'd made other mistakes. They said to expect the results tomorrow afternoon. A plane flight back to New York, and there's the email waiting. 8776! If anyone's wondering what I used to study, here's the short list: Groupstudy! Paul's done a great job. There are certain people on this list that should be flagged as must-reads. I won't mention any last names, but there are a couple guys named 'Brian' (both long-time CCIEs) that are a huge asset to this list. Thanks guys. Doyle - Volumes 1 and 2 - Everything you ever wanted to know about IP, but were afraid to ask. Bridges, Routers, and Switches for CCIEs - Bruce Caslow and Val Pavlichenko - Used edition 2, but I understand 3 is coming out soon. This book covers most everything. I expect the new edition will cover more multicast and QOS, and drop Appletalk and DECnet. But still the most useful book I've found. Halabi - Used 1st edition, but everything I was asked to do with BGP is in that book. Bootcamp labs - Worked though these with a partner, because his company was cool enough to buy them for him, and my company wasn't! Great preparation and simulation for the test.

A couple of things are a little lacking in the book, but they cover those very well in the class. Be prepared to work your a** off that week though. 8:30AM to 11PM is the norm that week.

Whew! CCIE 8776! [7:35257]
All, I think the title says it all. Took the lab today at RTP. 4th time was the charm. I don't know where to begin. Might as well start with the thank you's. Thanks to Bruce, Val, and Fred at NetMasterClass. Thanks also to those on the list that I've either studied with or have helped me out in the past with problems. Thanks also to Paul for putting this great list together. As far as how I prepared, I might as well give the whole story. Started working on Cisco about 2 1/2 years ago after going though the Novell and MS Certs. After getting NA, DA, NP, and DP, I passed the CCIE written in October 2000. Without really knowing how to study or what to prepare for, I got my butt handed to me in January at RTP. Didn't know much more than your average CCNP would. Tried again in April, but BGP killed me, and again I didn't make it to day 2. After that, I found a study partner (Thanks Boris) and we worked pretty hard last summer. Did all the bootcamp labs, thought I knew everything I needed to. November 4 of 2001, figured I'd breeze through the lab. I don't know if it's true, but I heard the first couple of months with the new 1 day format had a very low pass rate. I know I could have used a couple more hours to finish. If anyone took the lab in Oct or Nov of last year and failed, don't be discouraged. I think they've scaled it back a little nowadays. Fast forwarding to today. After spending a week with Val, Bruce, and Fred at the NMC-1 course, and doing nothing but working on my speed, I felt pretty prepared. Everything in the Doyle Volume 1 and Bruce/Val's book made sense. Though running a little low on sleep, I felt good this morning. Roughly 4.5 hours into the test, we got lunch. At that point I was done with the IGP's and almost done with the EGP's. In other words about 2/3 of the way done, by my estimate. At 1:30 I was done, but needed to go back and work on 3 things I couldn't figure out. A little discussing with the proctor, and 2 of them were fixed. But then I think I read too much. I had solved a problem one way, but realized the wording of the question might change what they were looking for. Checking with the proctor, I got the impression that he really didn't like my solution. So there I am, 1.5 hours to go, and I'm making a somewhat major change :( Looked OK, but with 1/2 an hour to go, I noticed a 'neighborship' bouncing up and down :o 10 minutes to go, got it all working, but didn't get a chance to completely double check all my other work as time expired. I know I left 1 thing unconfigured (a 2 pointer), but started wondering if I'd made other mistakes. They said to expect the results tomorrow afternoon.

I think you hit that one on the head. Even today, I don't think I could have passed that test I had in November. In fact, when our proctor arrived back in November, we were all waiting for him. His exact words were: Wow, you guys are in a hurry to fail. True story.

Didn't know much more than your average CCNP would. Tried again in April, but BGP killed me, and again I didn't make it to day 2. After that, I found a study partner (Thanks Boris) and we worked pretty hard last summer. Did all the bootcamp labs, thought I knew everything I needed to. November 4 of 2001, figured I'd breeze through the lab. I don't know if it's true, but I heard the first couple of months with the new 1 day format had a very low pass rate. I know I could have used a couple more hours to finish. If anyone took the lab in Oct or Nov of last year and failed, don't be discouraged. I think they've scaled it back a little nowadays. Fast forwarding to today. After spending a week with Val, Bruce, and Fred at the NMC-1 course, and doing nothing but working on my speed, I felt pretty prepared. Everything in the Doyle Volume 1 and Bruce/Val's book made sense. Though running a little low on sleep, I felt good this morning. Roughly 4.5 hours into the test, we got lunch. At that point I was done with the IGP's and almost done with the EGP's. In other words about 2/3 of the way done, by my estimate. At 1:30 I was done, but needed to go back and work on 3 things I couldn't figure out. A little discussing with the proctor, and 2 of them were fixed. But then I think I read too much. I had solved a problem one way, but realized the wording of the question might change what they were looking for. Checking with the proctor, I got the impression that he really didn't like my solution.

RE: Whew! CCIE 8776! [7:35288]
Joe, I practiced mostly on speed. Plus some crack and methanphetamines as well. Just kidding. I've got 8 routers at home. The last couple of weeks, I've practiced just blasting in the various frame maps as fast as possible, and then configuring the most bizarre IGP configurations. Multiple mutual redistribution points, and crazy netmasks all over the place. Eventually I got the hang of it, and found the 'distance' command with it's options after the metric most useful. I did a little studying of the 'little' things, but focused mostly on the 'meat and potatoes' of the lab - IGPs.

RE: Whew! CCIE 8776! [7:35288]
Joe, I practiced mostly on speed. Plus some crack and methanphetamines as well. Just kidding. I've got 8 routers at home. The last couple of weeks, I've practiced just blasting in the various frame maps as fast as possible, and then configuring the most bizarre IGP configurations. Multiple mutual redistribution points, and crazy netmasks all over the place. Eventually I got the hang of it, and found the 'distance' command with it's options after the metric most useful. I did a little studying of the 'little' things, but focused mostly on the 'meat and potatoes' of the lab - IGPs.

Understanding BGP (was: Any advice for first attempt at JNCIE [7:35305]
Let me share what made the light dawn for me about BGP: first understanding the problem it was meant to solve, not how the protocol proper works or how to configure it on Cisco or Juniper. It's a reasonable simplification to say that BGP is policy controlled. Therefore, it makes sense to understand what those policies are. I started with the now-obsolete RIPE-181 document, but there now is a Routing Policy Specification Language and a fair bit of tutorials about it. See http://www.radb.net/ and for a wide range of sources, and also browse the archives of http://www.nanog.org. Look for both RPSL and BGP at NANOG. Another tutorial is at http://ncne.nlanr.net/training/techs/2001/0128/presentations/200101-prior2/. In my new service provider book, due out in April, I found it a very different approach to Halabi: start with the customer (or provider) problem definition, map it to RPSL (at least informally), and then configure based on RPSL. There is a freeware conversion program called RtConfig (part of the RAtoolset) that will take RPSL and produce about 80% of the BGP code for an actual router. You can download the RAToolset and get other information at http://www.isi.edu/ra. RtConfig best supports Cisco command language, but will also generate GateD, Bay RS, and RsD configurations. I don't know if there is a version specific to Juniper, but GateD configuration language is quite close to Juniper. The RAtoolset runs on most *NIX boxes.

ISDN line drops at the same time [7:35306]
Hey guys and gals this one is very weird. I have a PRI than connects to a AS5200. All is fine except 1 client. This persons connection gets dropped everyday at 9:26.

RE: Ethernet or FastEthernet [7:35245]
I had read (and understood) that you needed FastEthernet for ISL trunking. I'm not for sure about Dot1Q though. It appears from the post from MADMAN, that you can indeed perform Dot1Q on Ethernet ports. But I still think FastEthernet I read a post in this thread that on a 2900 switch someone set it for 10-half and didn't receive an error when setting up ISL trunking. However, it appears from that post that he's using a 2900(XL) switch (because of the 'switchport trunk' IOS command). If that's the case, then regardless of speed/duplex settings, that port is still (technically) a FastEthernet port, and therefore capable of ISL trunking. That's my take on it.. Mike W.

RE: Ethernet or FastEthernet [7:35245]
I also belive that it is possible to run isl/802.1Q over ethernet. I seem to remember reading that the limiting factor was the age of the ethernet hardware. The originally ethernet chips used in cisco network modules only supported a fixed frame size. When ISL/802.1Q came along, the hardware needed to support some additional space to accomadate the VLAN info. This was a problem with older ethernet chips sets however the newer hardware supports this. The chip sets used on the FE board did not have this problem because they were already designed to allow for a larger frame. Can anyone verify my recollection??? Oleg Oz..

I have upgraded the flash in a 3640 from the 8 Mb chip to a 16 Mb chip. I did this by installing the second, 16 Mb chip into slot 1 of the motherboard, leaving the original 8 Mb in slot 1, for a total of 24 Mb of flash memory. I then installed 12.1, which was the reason I needed to upgrade the flash. 12.1 went on without a hitch, but when the router was reloaded, it would run for about 30 minutes and then go into rommon mode. It did this repeatedly, so I removed the 8 Mb chip, installed the 16 Mb chip into slot 0, and then used xmodem to transfer 12.1 through the console, a painstaking two hour task.

Re: Whew! CCIE 8776! [7:35296]
Chuck, Congratulations! Thanks for the good word on NMC-1 because I'll be taking that class the week of February 25th. Todd Carswell - Original Message - From: Chuck Church To: ; Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 12:43 AM Subject: Whew! CCIE 8776! All, I think the title says it all. Took the lab today at RTP. 4th time was the charm. I don't know where to begin. Might as well start with the thank you's. Thanks to Bruce, Val, and Fred at NetMasterClass. Thanks also to those on the list that I've either studied with or have helped me out in the past with problems. Thanks also to Paul for putting this great list together. As far as how I prepared, I might as well give the whole story. Started working on Cisco about 2 1/2 years ago after going though the Novell and MS Certs. After getting NA, DA, NP, and DP, I passed the CCIE written in October 2000. Without really knowing how to study or what to prepare for, I got my butt handed to me in January at RTP. Didn't know much more than your average CCNP would. Tried again in April, but BGP killed me, and again I didn't make it to day 2. After that, I found a study partner (Thanks Boris) and we worked pretty hard last summer. Did all the bootcamp labs, thought I knew everything I needed to. November 4 of 2001, figured I'd breeze through the lab. I don't know if it's true, but I heard the first couple of months with the new 1 day format had a very low pass rate. I know I could have used a couple more hours to finish. If anyone took the lab in Oct or Nov of last year and failed, don't be discouraged. I think they've scaled it back a little nowadays. Fast forwarding to today. After spending a week with Val, Bruce, and Fred at the NMC-1 course, and doing nothing but working on my speed, I felt pretty prepared. Everything in the Doyle Volume 1 and Bruce/Val's book made sense. Though running a little low on sleep, I felt good this morning. Roughly 4.5 hours into the test, we got lunch. At that point I was done with the IGP's and almost done with the EGP's. In other words about 2/3 of the way done, by my estimate. At 1:30 I was done, but needed to go back and work on 3 things I couldn't figure out. A little discussing with the proctor, and 2 of them were fixed. But then I think I read too much. I had solved a problem one way, but realized the wording of the question might change what they were looking for. Checking with the proctor, I got the impression that he really didn't like my solution. So there I am, 1.5 hours to go, and I'm making a somewhat major change :( Looked OK, but with 1/2 an hour to go, I noticed a 'neighborship' bouncing up and down :o 10 minutes to go, got it all working, but didn't get a chance to completely double check all my other work as time expired. I know I left 1 thing unconfigured (a 2 pointer), but started wondering if I'd made other mistakes. They said to expect the results tomorrow afternoon. A plane flight back to New York, and there's the email waiting. 8776! If anyone's wondering what I used to study, here's the short list: Groupstudy! Paul's done a great job. There are certain people on this list that should be flagged as must-reads. I won't mention any last names, but there are a couple guys named 'Brian' (both long-time CCIEs) that are a huge asset to this list. Thanks guys. Doyle - Volumes 1 and 2 - Everything you ever wanted to know about IP, but were afraid to ask. Bridges, Routers, and Switches for CCIEs - Bruce Caslow and Val Pavlichenko - Used edition 2, but I understand 3 is coming out soon. This book covers most everything. I expect the new edition will cover more multicast and QOS, and drop Appletalk and DECnet. But still the most useful book I've found. Halabi - Used 1st edition, but everything I was asked to do with BGP is in that book. Bootcamp labs - Worked though these with a partner, because his company was cool enough to buy them for him, and my company wasn't! Great preparation and simulation for the test. Various docs from CCO - Might as well go to the source! Most importantly - NMC-1 http://www.netmasterclass.net/nmc/ Bruce and Val explain the most difficult subjects very well. A couple of things are a little lacking in the book, but they cover those very well in the class. Be prepared to work your a** off that week though. 8:30AM to 11PM is the norm that week.

Re: cef vs fast switching [7:35183]
CEF was designed to improve performance on core, backbone routers, that handle a lot of dynamic traffic to a variety of destinations. It also has major benefits for load sharing. It wasn't designed for an edge router with only one egress like you're talking about. Nonetheless, I think it would still speed things up. The main advantage of CEF is that it never has to do any process switching. It can immediately use the FIB and adjacency table. Compare CEF to fast switching. With fast switching, the first packet to a Layer-3 destination must be process switched. If you have lots of Layer-3 destinations, this is especially bad. In that case, CEF would definitely help. Packet Magazine did a nice article on CEF here: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/784/packet/oct00/p94-cover.html And here's an even better article from TAC: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/105/20.html Priscilla bergenpeak wrote: Suppose you have an edge router that has 10 or so connected subnets and a default egress route. This box is not running a dynamic routing protocol. If one was to enable CEF on this box (over fast switching), would one expect to see any/much performance improvement? This box does not support dCEF (72xx chassis).

RE: Ip subnet Zero Ip classess [7:35340]
Well, From http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/np1_r /1rprt2/1ripadr.htm#xtocid12 : ip classless At times the router might receive packets destined for a subnet of a network that has no network default route. To have the Cisco IOS software forward such packets to the best supernet route possible, use the ip classless global configuration command. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command. Regarding subnet zero, the IOS didn't used to let you assign an address that was part of subnet zero. It wasn't allowed because it could create an address that was the same as the subnet address.

Re: Ip subnet Zero Ip classess [7:35340]
subnet zero lets you do this: ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.252 ip classless lets you do this ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.0.0 and probably more importantly it will allow a router to forward a packet via a default route even though router is connected to a subnet of the major network your trying to reach, i.e. discontiguous.

Injecting a default route to an IGRP stub router-HOW?? [7:35347]
Hello, I can't seem to figure out how to inject a default route to an IGRP stub router from another router without actually typing in the default route cmd.(ip route 0.0) on the stub router itself? Basically, I have stub router RTA connected to RTB on netw 8. RTB is connected to RTC and RTD on netw 6 and 7 respectively. on RTB typed: #ip default-network 8.0.0.0 on RTA:#sh ip route No default route injected on RTB: #ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 s0 #redistribute static under igrp or #network 0.0.0.0 on RTA:#sh ip route No default route still.. :-( No problem with RIP, OSPF, EIGRP or BGP(obviously with the reqd. cmds. for them except RIP). Unless, I type in the #ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 e0 cmd. on RTA, it cannot ping any networks past RTB. Why is this so? I thought IGRP does not understand the 0.0.0.0 default route(as per Cisco doc.) and thus needs the ip default-network cmd. (BTW setting this cmd. on the stub router RTA still does not work). Then am I missing something important here?? Please advise.

Re: Serial (X.21) X-over cables [7:35212]
Joel, Have a look at www.kg2.com Kelly Griffin used to post to the group. Not heard of him for a while. I've noticed he's doing some DB60 to RJ45 converters from March 2002 for around 20 dollars, so one of each DCE/DTE for 40 dollars and you're away - whatever length you want, and I believe the full crossover cables were around 25 dollars. I must add I have no links with Kelly or the company and not enough knowledge of them to recommend, but prices look decent and I know he's been around a while now. I keep meaning to buy the same but never got round to it. Gaz Joel Satterley wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

I have upgraded the flash in a 3640 from the 8 Mb chip to a 16 Mb chip. I did this by installing the second, 16 Mb chip into slot 1 of the motherboard, leaving the original 8 Mb in slot 1, for a total of 24 Mb of flash memory. I then installed 12.1, which was the reason I needed to upgrade the flash. 12.1 went on without a hitch, but when the router was reloaded, it would run for about 30 minutes and then go into rommon mode. It did this repeatedly, so I removed the 8 Mb chip, installed the 16 Mb chip into slot 0, and then used xmodem to transfer 12.1 through the console, a painstaking two hour task.
