RE: IOS version [7:71225]

2003-06-25 Thread Jonathan V Hays
Hi,

It looks like the IOS has given you the answer: Command rejected: One
or more ports is already configured as a trunk port.

And the documentation confirms that you cannot configure multi-VLAN and
trunk ports on the same 2900XL/3500XL switch. See:

 Invariably they all say the same thing, which is that while networks are

True, fairness is a must.  CCIEs without much experience are rare in the
field percentage-wise in comparison, as no-nothing frat boys who drank
through college are aplenty.  These chaps sure played good paintball, but
they were not good techs.

CCIEs with some experience are considered to have college equivalent
experience and training as it pertains to technical know-how, knowledge
that has proven to be crucial in the survival of a few companies that I have
worked in.  The companies did not care very much whether the CCIE had any
soft skills when it came time to salvage a disaster of a network.

You're saying that a CCIE (with experience, although you left that part

will ever be considered for a lead position, regardless of other

FR Backup Over ISDN [7:71332]

2003-06-25 Thread Srivathsan Ananthachari
Hi Group,

This is pertaining to FR Backup over ISDN

http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/125/12.html#topic21

It may not help much to back up the main interface because you could
lose permanent virtual circuits (PVCs) without the main interface going
down. Remember, the protocol is being exchanged with the local Frame
Relay switch, not the remote router. 

I quote this from the aforesaid Cisco link.

Can somebody explain as to why it doesn't help much to back up the main
interface and how does it lead to the loss of PVCs without the main
interface going down. ??

Regards,
Srivathsan A

you do a  sh frame-relay pvc your DLCI shows INACTIVE. Hence why the ISDN
backup interface command does not take effect since the interface is still
up.. even though your frame-relay is not working. This can be caused to

Switch cluster managment problem. [7:71336]

2003-06-25 Thread Stuart Pittwood
Hi all,

We have a 3550-12T which is connected to 3 2950G-48-EI's via the GBIC ports.

When I access the cluster managment software on the 3550 is shows the 2950s
as unknown devices, if I access the CMS on one of the 2950s it shows me the
correct switch (but only the one) and I'm able to manage it.

Is there anyway I can get the CMS on the 3550 to pick up the model of the
switches it's connected to correctly.

Thanks

But then what are we really talking about here - is it the CCIE or is it the

a live network until and unless that lab-rat gets experience.   A much more
fair comparison would be the CCIE with some experience vs. the college
graduate with equal experience.

And I would wonder whether there really are enough network disasters around
that one could really make a reliable living off them merely with strong
technical skills but no soft-skills.  I would contend probably not.  The
fact is, if nobody in the company likes you, then you either better be an

these days simply don't have a lot of room anymore for guys who may be

6509 MSFC [7:71340]

2003-06-25 Thread Dave C.
I have a MSFC on a 6509 that I am firing up for the first time.  The 6509 is
running CAT-OS (Hybrid Mode).

I have defined several VLAN interfaces on the MSFC, and now must create a
specific access-list to limit only a certain source and port address to
reach each of these VLAN's.  This access-list will not allow Telnet
connectivity.

My question is, if I create this access list and bind it to all VLANs, will
I be able to SESSION over from the switch to the MSFC?  Does the SESSION
command actually use Telnet to get to the MSFC?  Will I need to assign a
loopback address and then allow access to the loopback address specifically
in my access-list?

I just want to make sure that I do not block all access to the MSFC.

Any clarification on this would be helpful.

Thanks.

What's 'wrong' is that you apparently expect them to do so.  The employer is

crypto maps and IPSEC tunnels [7:71341]

Hi

I have just setup a IPSEC tunnel between to routers and tunneling a source
address of 192.168.50.1 going to a host on router B
172.x.x.x./24
Everything works with the current configs given below. But I want to change
the acl 101 on router B from using a class A mask
to something like a class C mask or even a host address. I have changed the
ACL 101 and even added a deny ip any any log
to the end to see what is being dropped.
The VPN tunnel doesnt come up unless I use a class A mask like showen below.
I know this is an ACL but is being used for matching traffic, do they work
differently and dont support host address ??

RE: CCDA Study material [7:71111]

2003-06-25 Thread Lopez, Robert
Group,

To answer the question regarding Knowledgenet from thread below...I've
recently purchased a few courses from Knowledgenet - cvoice, dqos and evodd.
It's basically 6 weeks of self/web-based study with hands on lab scenarios
and sample exam questions for each class.  My first course was cvoice.  I
went through the coursework just about everyday for six weeks.  At the end
of the six weeks I sat the cvoice exam and passed - the only material used
was from knowledgenet and the cisco website - a little hand-on experience
helped as well.  I'm in the process of sitting the exam for dqos - this
upcoming Friday...

 Great write up.  Thanks.
 
 So what is the current exam number?

 Is it just one exam that I have to take?

Yes, It's just one exam to get CCDA. Lots of exams to get CCDP.

 
 Do you know what the new exam number will be or is?

I think it's the same answer as the one above. It just came out but I don't
think you can still take the old one, as I implied before.

Cisco shouldn't change the exam for a while. It took them years to do the
development on this class and test. And they did a great job, from what I
can tell.

 
 
 I was looking at taking the following course, what do
 you think:
 
 http://www.knowledgenet.com/courselibrary/cisco/courses/desgn_pf.jsp
 

An advantage to taking the class is that you will get the 1,000s of pages
that Cisco wrote for the course manual.

I don't know much about Knowledgenet. It appears to not be a real,
carbon-based classroom where you go in person to the site and can easily
interract with the instructor and other people taking the class, which is a
major benefit in a design class. In fact, the exercises for DESGN are
designed to be done with a team. Can you do that with this Web-based
training?

It's possible that they do a good job with their Web-based training and
simulate the real world well. I just don't know.

Cisco recommends that DESGN be taught with a simulator that will let you do
some design tasks. They recommend OPNET. Does Knowledgenet let you use
OPNET? I would ask a few questions before shelling out a lot of money for
the Knowlegenet course. Has anyone else here on GroupStudy used them?

If you do use them, let us know how it goes. Thanks and good luck with your
CCDA.

Priscilla

  organizational) goals,
  technical goals, topologies, architectures, modular
  design, addressing

  management, and security.
  
  One focus is on the SAFE architecture, so look that
  up on Cisco's site and
  learn it. There's also some AVVID stuff
  
  Many of the course modules are partially based on my
  book Top-Down Network
  Design. Many of the modules say that Top-Down
  Network Design is recommended
  reading. Top-Down Network Design doesn't cover some
  newer topics, though,
  such as SAFE and AVVID, although it did cover voice
  in a limited fashion,
  since Cisco has been harping on that for years now.
  DESGN covers voice in
  gory detail, however. It seems to have all of the
  old CVOICE course in it.
  
  Each module in DESGN has many chapters, each of
  which is literally hundreds
  of pages long. The person turning it into a book
  (not me unfortunately) is
  going to have a heyday. :-)
  
  I haven't taken the new test, but if it really tests
  all that's in the
  course, it's going to be one of the hardest tests
  out there (and that's a
  good thing. It's about time design got some respect.
  :-)
  
  Anyway, bottom line: if you can take the older
  version of the test, then
  there's lots of study materials. If you have to take
  the newer version, then
  you should take the instructor-led DESGN class or
  wait a few months for
  study material.

You can 'session' to the MSFC without previously configuring anything (like 
IP address) on it, right? So it can't be telnet... :)

I have defined several VLAN interfaces on the MSFC, and now must create a

My question is, if I create this access list and bind it to all VLANs, will
I be able to SESSION over from the switch to the MSFC?  Does the SESSION
command actually use Telnet to get to the MSFC?  Will I need to assign a

I just want to make sure that I do not block all access to the MSFC.

Any clarification on this would be helpful.

 This is probably a very simple concept question, but I've asked a 
 couple
 people and haven't gotten a solid answer.
 
 If I've got two frame relay spoke sites connected point to point with a
 hub site and a server in one spoke site copies a file to a server in 
 the
 other spoke site, does all the traffic pass through the hub site, or is
 it switched within the frame cloud?
 
 I guess what I'm wondering is does a frame cloud act somewhat like a
 lan, where initially packets will go through the default gateway and be
 routed and then the following packets will be switched?
 
 thanks.

RE: BGP on 1720 ? [7:70960]

2003-06-25 Thread Herold Heiko
Everybody - thank you. Sorry for this late answer, got stuck with a problem
in a remote site for some time.

From what you said I'd think one provider is planning to give us a full BGP
feed (but doesn't charge very much), while the other requires a smaller
router because they want to filter most routes and charge a lot, I suppose
for the (supposed?) continuous tweaking of the routes (what else?).


I *assume* (we all know what that means) they think about using a small
router at our site, just for redundancy and link switching in case one ISP
does lose connectivity, but really  won't use BGP at our site for the best
path selection a lot. This could make sense if both ISP are connected to
the rest of internet through the same node at some point, so there wouldn't
be any big difference in using one path or the other except for connections
to those ISPs itself. However I think although all local ISP do have a
interconnection at a node named MIX-IT (Milan, Italy) these major ones all
have different long range carriers (to the rest of Europe, to USA and some
parts of ASIA if I remember correctly), so I'm still convinced something
somewhere stinks, a strategy of that kind would be at best suboptimal.

 Hi,
 
 Just a few thoughts:
 
 1. You can use something small like a 1720 to run BGP but the 
 trick here is
 to filter all/some routes that you are receiving. The current 
 recommendation
 from Cisco is 128MB for full BGP routing tables (I think the 
 tables stand on
 110 000 routes now). The second part would be to advertise 
 your registered
 range to your two ISPs.
 
 2. If you want to run full BGP tables you will need a router 
 with more punch
 than the 1720. I did a proposal once with a 2650XM and the 
 2691 is also a
 good option. Next in line would be your 3640. Of course all 
 of these models
 will need at least 128MB DRAM.
 
 As I say, just a few thoughts on a lazy Friday afternoon.
 
 Cheers,

Re: FR Backup Over ISDN [7:71332]

2003-06-25 Thread MADMAN
Yes you are correct that backing up the main interface will not help 
if the remote side of the frame connection goes down, you will still be 
up up to your local switch.  since I think 10.2 or 3 you can backup the 
subinterface, it recognizes the PVC being down and will initiate you 
backup though I prefer triggering backups on loss of routes personally.

Yes, It's just one exam to get CCDA. Lots of exams to get CCDP.


 Do you know what the new exam number will be or is?

I think it's the same answer as the one above. It just came out but I don't
think you can still take the old one, as I implied before.

Cisco shouldn't change the exam for a while. It took them years to do the
development on this class and test. And they did a great job, from what I
can tell.



 I was looking at taking the following course, what do
 you think:

 http://www.knowledgenet.com/courselibrary/cisco/courses/desgn_pf.jsp


An advantage to taking the class is that you will get the 1,000s of pages
that Cisco wrote for the course manual.

I don't know much about Knowledgenet. It appears to not be a real,
carbon-based classroom where you go in person to the site and can easily
interract with the instructor and other people taking the class, which is a
major benefit in a design class. In fact, the exercises for DESGN are
designed to be done with a team. Can you do that with this Web-based
training?

It's possible that they do a good job with their Web-based training and
simulate the real world well. I just don't know.

Cisco recommends that DESGN be taught with a simulator that will let you do
some design tasks. They recommend OPNET. Does Knowledgenet let you use
OPNET? I would ask a few questions before shelling out a lot of money for
the Knowlegenet course. Has anyone else here on GroupStudy used them?

If you do use them, let us know how it goes. Thanks and good luck with your
CCDA.

my problem is the following: 
with this configuration the MSFC can reach all ip of our backbone, while the

first step).
If i configure the defualt manually into MSFC, with the command ip route

Make sure that whatever is on the other side of the outside interface is

Subject: Internet is very slow behind Pix 515E UR [7:70783]


Whenever I access the web site which is behind the Pix firewalls, the speed
is really slow.

I bypassed the firewall and accessed the same site and it's fast!

I checked my settings and made sure all the connected devices are running at
100 and full duplex, they all are!

I mean why this is happening ... is it because the pix have to inspect each
packet!

The Bandwidth from the service provider is 64k.

Any Idea Please.


Any ideas?


The Pix version is 6.1 besides this is satellite connection

The internal Address range is 191.1.1.0-191.1.1.254 255.255.0.0

RE: 6509 MSFC [7:71340]

2003-06-25 Thread Kaminski, Shawn G
According to Cisco's website, using the session command is what they call
accessing the MSFC from the switch CLI using a Telnet session. However,
you can access the MSFC from the console port using the switch console
command, which Cisco describes as accessing the MSFC from the switch CLI
directly connected to the supervisor engine console port. See the following
link for more information (watch for wrap):

Subject: 6509 MSFC [7:71340]

I have a MSFC on a 6509 that I am firing up for the first time.  The 6509 is
running CAT-OS (Hybrid Mode).

I have defined several VLAN interfaces on the MSFC, and now must create a
specific access-list to limit only a certain source and port address to
reach each of these VLAN's.  This access-list will not allow Telnet
connectivity.

My question is, if I create this access list and bind it to all VLANs, will
I be able to SESSION over from the switch to the MSFC?  Does the SESSION
command actually use Telnet to get to the MSFC?  Will I need to assign a
loopback address and then allow access to the loopback address specifically
in my access-list?

I just want to make sure that I do not block all access to the MSFC.

Any clarification on this would be helpful.

Thanks.

Technology, Certification, Skill Sets, and Altruiism in the [7:71358]

2003-06-25 Thread Evans, Timothy R (BearingPoint)
Good Morning!
Statement 1:
In general - businesses are not well known for being altruistic in their
hiring  compensation practices.

Statement 2:
Any good manager would be rather foolish to not appreciate, and compensate
accordingly, a hard-working and presumably valued employee.  (S)He would
also be rather foolish to pay more than needed ... there is a delicate
balancing act, with a very precipitous fall into bankruptcy being one of the
major indications of failure!

Caveats:NOTE - I said the following -incredibly- subjective things:
good manager  
foolish   
accordingly
hard working 
valued employee   
needed

.. furthermore the valued employee part may be invoking a bit of circular
login, since the value may be seen as directly related to the
compensation.  Alternatively - your level of compensation may also be more
indicative of what you WERE worth to the company AT ONE TIME, and if it
exceeds certain levels may actually decrease your overall value to the
company.(the highest paid are the first to go)

.. let's get back to networking before I decide to go sell real estate ...

RE: Unable to copy from Sup-Slot0 [7:71038]

2003-06-25 Thread Kaminski, Shawn G
Well, this issue has been resolved with the help of Cisco! Here's a quick
run-down of what happened:

The MSFC2 on the 6509 switch was booting into boot mode because there was
only one image in bootflash (the boot image). I couldn't copy a main image
to bootflash using the copy sup-slot0: bootflash: command and I couldn't
get any connectivity between the switch and the MSFC2. After working with
Cisco, they said that there is a bug in the 12.1 MSFC2 code that causes
problems using the copy sup-slot0: bootflash: command with the main image.
The boot image can be copied using the copy sup-slot0: bootflash: command
because it is small, but the main image is apparently too big to be handled.


As for the connectivity between the 6509 switch and the MSFC2, Cisco told me
that since the MSFC2 is booting into boot mode, the boot image is very
limited in what it can do. In fact, you need to use VLAN1 to set up
connectivity (I was using VLAN120).  So, after changing everything over to
VLAN1 on the switch and on the MSFC2, I was able to gain connectivity
between the switch and the MSFC2. From there, I connected my laptop to a
port on the switch and TFTP could then be used to dump the main image into
bootflash!

That idea was great.  I am afraid I would have a problem because the number

Bridging on ppp seems to have a problem: just one Vlan (bridge-group) per

Two links on Cisco explains EoMPLS. It seems to solve the problem but I can
not find an example with PoS interface. I am not sure if it is supported.
The links is:

2003-06-25 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer
Srivathsan Ananthachari wrote:
 
 Hi,
 
 This might have something to do with the protocol design . I was
 wondering whether all the connection-oriented / reliable
 protocols use 
 Windowing  .

No, a lot of connection-oriented protocols and a lot of reliable protocols
don't use windowing. There are three separate issues here:
connection-oriented, reliability, and flow control. Those characteristics
can be combined in many ways, as in a protocol that is reliable, not
connection-oriented, and doesn't use flow control (such as TFTP); or a
protocol that is connection-oriented and reliable and doesn't use flow
control (like NetWare Core Protocol with no burst mode); or a protocol that
is connection-oriented but not reliable and doesn't do windowing, such as
Frame Relay. Wow, how many other combinations could I come up with? :-)

Connection-oriented means that there's some sort of formal establishment of
the connection. Examples are Frame Relay, ATM, TCP. Dare I bring up NetBIOS
again? :-) In a TCP/IP environment, NetBIOS depends on TCP for connection
establishment (and reliability and windowing flow control). In a NetBEUI
environment, NetBIOS handles reliability and connection establishment. It
also relies on LLC type 2 for those 2 things (it's pretty inefficient) and
windowing flow control. With NWLink (NetBIOS on IPX), NetBIOS does
connection establishment and realibility on its own, and has no windowing
flow control.

Reliable means that data delivery is guaranteed. This usualy requires
sequence numbers and ACKs. There are protocols that are reliable but not
connection-oriented and that don't use flow control. An example is OSPF when
it exchanges database description messages. This is a reliable protocol with
sequence numbers, but there's no formal connection establishment first.
Neighbors discover each other with hellos, but they don't establish a
connection. They don't use windowing either.

Many command/reply protocols, such as DNS, are reliable. The client
retransmits if it doesn't get an asnwer. But they aren't connection-oriented
and they don't use flow control.

Flow control coordinates the amount of data that can be sent to a receiver.
It can be handled in two different ways:

Stop-and-wait flow control: The sender waits for an ACK after every frame.
Examples of protocols that do this are Bysync (BSC), NetWare Core Protocol 
when burst mode isn't used, Network File System (NFS), Trivial File Transfer
Protocol (TFTP). Some of those (like NCP) are connection-oriented and
reliable, but they don't use windowing. Some of them (like TFTP) are
reliable, but not connection-oriented.

Sliding window flow control: The sender can transmit several frames before
needing an ACK. TCP uses this, as does X.25, LLC Type 2, HDLC (though not
Cisco's HDLC), SDLC. Those are all connection-oriented and reliable also.

There are quite a few protocols that aren't connection-oriented or reliable
and don't do flow control: Ethernet, Token Ring, Cisco's HDLC, IP, UDP, etc.

 Any thoughts...?

you are right :-) It does use a telnet-session. If you use an ACL on
your vty's, you can include/exclude the 127.0.0.x range to allow /
reject telnet-sessions from the switching-engine (if you telnet/ssh on
the sw-engine). As mentioned before, you can use the switch console
while you have access to the consle of the 65xx.

Yes, I agree that the session command uses an internal telnet session.
Cisco's documentation says using a Telnet session, but I believe they
didn't go into enough detail!

Not using a telnet session, rather from a telnet session. To appreciate 
the difference, consider what the 'switch console' command does: it directs 
the MSFC console to the console outlet that is visible on the supervisor 
card (FWIW, the MSFC module has its own hardware console port, it's just 
not wired into an RJ-45 outlet on the front panel of the card). So if you 
are *not* on the console, then 'switch console' doesn't help you. If you 
are telnetting to the box (ie. you want to access the MSFC from a telnet 
session), then you have to use the 'session' command.

Now it is possible that the 'session' command is in fact uses a telnet 
session internally. Even so I would be surprised if you could disable that 
using access lists. It is certainly not a normal telnet session as it 
doesn't require username/password and such.

However, to be sure: Dave, please try it out, and let us know! :)

. However,
you can access the MSFC from the console port using the switch console
command, which Cisco describes as accessing the MSFC from the switch CLI
directly connected to the supervisor engine console port. See the

I have a MSFC on a 6509 that I am firing up for the first time.  The 6509
is
running CAT-OS (Hybrid Mode).

I have defined several VLAN interfaces on the MSFC, and now must create a
specific access-list to limit only a certain source and port address to
reach each of these VLAN's.  This access-list will not allow Telnet
connectivity.

My question is, if I create this access list and bind it to all VLANs, will
I be able to SESSION over from the switch to the MSFC?  Does the SESSION
command actually use Telnet to get to the MSFC?  Will I need to assign a
loopback address and then allow access to the loopback address specifically
in my access-list?

I just want to make sure that I do not block all access to the MSFC.

Any clarification on this would be helpful.

Thanks.

You forgot to include something there.  To take advantage of that USAF
possibility you not only have to be willing to do it, but able to do it.  
The moment you start talking about a position that requires a Secret
clearence I would estimate that you slice 35-40 percent of those who are
technically qualified right out of the picture.  make it a TS and you
probably killed 75+ percent.  CCIE's trying to get ccna level jobs?  I
suppose some are.  But I have to say I only have 6 years in the computer
arena with just 2 years holding my CCNA.  (I'm sitting the BSCI exam next
week).  I was a contracted employee at my last job and the project ended.
The first thing I did was file for unemployment (since I paid for it) and
start job hunting. When I was down there filing there was a group of 11
Cisco/nortel people who were there together.  They had come from their
meeting at ATT where they had just found out that they were losing their
jobs.  They said there were another 20-30 in their group who were also about
to hit the skids.  I job hunted for 2 months before being offered an
acceptable position.  I took a cut but I got a job I love.
I was very intimidated when I found out that 30-40 qualified experienced
Cisco people were jumping in the job hunt at the same time as I was but I
bet I did better than at least half of them and in less time.  I just don't
believe that you can not find a job if you are experienced and certified. 
It might not be your dream job. it might not pay as much as you thought you
would be making now.  And it might require you to relocate.  But there are
jobs out there.

But if you start getting into NAT and load balancers, it's essential

I liked dre's comment about grouping them by category. My list is focused on
understanding protocol behavior for the fundamental protocols found on

One natural way to characterize the ones that aren't fully stable is 
to review the drafts and RFCs by the IETF Working Group: 
http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/wg-dir.html

Now, you won't find old and stable things there like basic IPv4.

You may also find exceptionally valuable drafts.  For example, the 
current draft 20 of the revision to the BGP specification, RFC 1771, 
is a far better picture of real-world BGP than is 1771.

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Paresh,

-Hi all,
-
-Appreciate if someone could clarify how the various Cisco
-OSPF modes for NBMA networks work.
-
-The command ip ospf network {broadcast | non-broadcast |
-{point-to-multipoint [non-broadcast] | point-to-point}}
-allows you to set an OSPF network mode.
-
-I would like to know:
-1.  How OSPF packets are transmitted on each of these modes -
-unicast, multicast etc ?


network \packet type |type 1 | type 2| type 3| type 4| type 5
-|---|---|---|---|--
p2p  |  M|   M   |   M   |   M   |  M
-|---|---|---|---|--
p2mp non-broadcast   |  U|   U   |   U   |   U   |  U
-|---|---|---|---|--
p2mp broadcast   |  M|   U   |   U   |   U   |  U
-|---|---|---|---|--
NBMA |  U|   U   |   U   |   U   |  U
-|---|---|---|---|--
Broadcast|  M|   U   |   U   |M /MD *|  M/MD *


U  : unicast ( neighbor IP address )
M  : Multicast AllSPFRouters (224.0.0.5)
MD : Multicast AllDRouters ( 224.0.0.4 )

* For broadcast network, if Interface FSM is DR /BDR type 4  5 are sent
to M ( 224.0.0.5) otherwise it is sent to MD ( 224.0.0.6 )


-2.  How are neighbors discovered ?

When the packet ( actually Hello ) is sent to unicast IP address a
manual configuration is required (except for VL which is found
dynamically once there is an intra-area path to the other end-point )

If Hello is sent to Multicast AllSPFRouters address and the link layer
has the broadcast capability ( or packet can be replicated to sent to
different VC ) then the neighbor discovery is dynamic

   This is probably a very simple concept question, but I've asked
   a couple people and haven't gotten a solid answer.
  
   If I've got two frame relay spoke sites connected point to
   point with a hub site and a server in one spoke site copies a
   file to a server in the other spoke site, does all the traffic
   pass through the hub site, or is it switched within the frame
   cloud?
 
 All the traffic passes through the hub site.
 
  
   I guess what I'm wondering is does a frame cloud act somewhat
   like a lan, where initially packets will go through the default
   gateway and be routed and then the following packets will be
   switched?
 
 A frame cloud does act like a LAN but a LAN without a router (and no
 broadcasting, but that's another story). You mixed metaphors by sticking
in
 the router, which is a layer up. The only reason a LAN switch can route
and
 then switch is because it's really a router (dare I say L3 switch!? :-)
Or
 it is in communication with a router, running Cisco's Multilayer
Switching
 Protcol (MLSP), and has an understanding of L3 addressing.
 
 A Frame Relay switch is just a L2 switch. It really does behave quite a
bit
 like a classic LAN L2 switch. It has a switching table that has a set of
 entries that say, if packet comes in on this DLCI, it goes out on that
 DLCI. This is similar to a L2 bridging/switching cam table, although
there
 are differences.

 The main differences being that

 a.) the FR switch typically doesn't learn the DLCI numbers dynamically,
 rather the service provider needs to configure it hop-by-hop, and

 b.) the DLCI is not a globally unique identifier, like the MAC address in
 the case of an Ethernet switch, rather has only local significance and it
 might change along the path (aka PVC) from switch to switch.


Actually, there is such a thing as a universal DLCI. PVO and I and a
couple of other folks researched this thoroughly one Saturday a couple of
years ago. It is an extension to the standard, and allows( going from memory
here )  for an extended DLCI field that supports a 15 bit identifier. This
means that a unique DLCI is assigned to every customer device in the cloud.

To my knowledge, no telco supports this, for a lot of reasons, not the least
of which is the complexity and the lack of capacity to support end to end
across several provider networks.

An enterprise running it's own frame network, say using Stratacom equipment,
for example, might find this of value.

I've done a couple of quick looks on CCO and have not found any links. My
recollection is that we researched outside of cisco to find the info, and
there may be some links on CCO but my phrasing is not turning them up

just another bit of pretty much useless information I've run across over the
years. :-



 Thanks,

 Zsombor



 The Frame Relay switch understands the virtual circuits that have been
 provisioned to the customer.
 
 With a hub and spoke topology, the spokes don't have a virtual circuit to
 each other. They just have a virtual circuit to the hub.
 
 So imagine a hub and spoke topology with Chicago being the Hub. Make Los
 Angeles and Miami the spokes.
 
 Chicago has two virtual circuits:
 
 DLCI 100 goes to Los Angeles
 DLCI 200 goes to Miami
 
 Los Angeles has just one virtual circuit:
 DLCI 777 goes to Chicago
 
 Miami has just one virtual circuit
 DLCI 888 goes to Chicago
 
 
 A switch in Chicago has two entries in its switching table:
 
 incoming = 100, outgoing = 777
 incoming = 200, outoing = 888
 
 
 A switch in Los Angeles has the following entry in its switching table
 
 incoming = 777, outgoing = 100
 
 
 A switch in Miam has the following entry in its switching table
 
 incoming = 888, outgoing = 200
 
 
 If you can get your hands on enough routers, set up one of them to be a
 Frame Relay switch in a hub-and-spoke topology. Just a switch, no
routing.
 It's truly an eye opener to manually configure its switching table (and
it
 is generally done manually, unlike a LAN switch.)
 
 Actually, from what I understand, there can be intermediate DLCIs in the
 cloud too, but that's a high-level view. Someone can correct me if I'm
wrong
 about it. I'm a bit tired after the NetBIOS biopsy or was it a lobotomy.
:-)

I never cease to be amazed at how less-than-well-informed-customers 
demand crazy protocol changes.  One of my favorites was to introduce 
something along the lines of detailed NetFlow in a price-sensitive 
DSL ISP, so they could look for (blocked by policy) HTTP servers. 
They couldn't understand why I suggested they simply filter on TCP 
port 80.

But as to your customer, some people like write-only memory.

You made me try it... :)

I configured this on the MSFC:

access-list 100 deny   ip any any log

line vty 0 4
  access-class 100 in

and I was still able to use 'session' to get to it. Does anyone have 
different experience?

FWIW, I also checked the TCP connections on the MSFC, and when a 'session' 
is open, it does show a TCP connection between 127.0.0.12:23 (local) and 
127.0.0.11:1025 (local). And when I configured a password on the vty's, I 
was subsequently required to enter that password for a 'session'. So it 
looks like telnet, walks like telnet, ... :)

OK, now back to work... ;(

The consensus among all corporate managers that I have dealt with is that
CCIEs cannot obtain their status with at least some real experience.  That
is the consensus.  Don't shoot me for it.

But then what are we really talking about here - is it the CCIE or is it the

experience - the prototype lab-rat- is not one to be trusted with running
a live network until and unless that lab-rat gets experience.   A much more
fair comparison would be the CCIE with some experience vs. the college
graduate with equal experience.

And I would wonder whether there really are enough network disasters around
that one could really make a reliable living off them merely with strong
technical skills but no soft-skills.  I would contend probably not.  The
fact is, if nobody in the company likes you, then you either better be an
absolutely awesome firefighter, or you're going to get canned.  Companies
these days simply don't have a lot of room anymore for guys who may be
technically brilliant but socially inept.

507 and 560 Content Engine Issues [7:71374]

2003-06-25 Thread Bolton, Travis D [ITS]
Team,

Is anybody having issues with their Content Engines having a lot of hard
drive failures?  If you don't and you are using 507 and 560 series CE's
then can you provide me with what IOS you are currently using.  We are
having tons of issues with these hard drives but Cisco at the moment
can't provide us with a reason why until they get some EFA results back.
I want to make sure this isn't a IOS issue by chance.  Thanks for your
help in advance.

RFC 1855, was RE: Quoting in Replies [7:71366]

2003-06-25 Thread John Neiberger
While we're on this topic, I just now found out there was an RFC that deals
with these issues.  Here is a snippet from that RFC:

 - If you are sending a reply to a message or a posting be sure you
  summarize the original at the top of the message, or include just
  enough text of the original to give a context.  This will make
  sure readers understand when they start to read your response.
  Since NetNews, especially, is proliferated by distributing the
  postings from one host to another, it is possible to see a
  response to a message before seeing the original.  Giving context
  helps everyone.  But do not include the entire original!

Of course, by top-posting I'm breaking this rule, but Shawn did it first!

Cisco 640-100 MCNS exam [7:71388]

2003-06-25 Thread John Holp
PIX People,

I am currently studying for Cisco's 640-100 MCNS exam and current study
material seems a bit thin.  I have the Boson package, pretty good, a good
reference book that I have read about 3 time.

I am looking for good study scenarios where one has to step through setting
up a router, firewall etc.

I am a CCNA, CCNP, and CCIE (written) --- a 98% correct score on that exam,
so feel pretty good about things,  BUT I can tell when study materail is not
so good.  I have purchase some study notes that are really bad, lots of
mistakes.

I recently purchased a nice new PIX 501 firewall with 3DES and am having
fun.  I need any and all good study sources that are also pertinent to what
one is apt to see on the actual exam

The mission is to understand, not figure out how to cheat on the exam, can
anyone help?

Thanks,

John

Re: FR concept question [7:71263]

2003-06-25 Thread Howard C. Berkowitz
At 8:29 PM + 6/25/03, Hemingway wrote:
   The main differences being that

  a.) the FR switch typically doesn't learn the DLCI numbers dynamically,
  rather the service provider needs to configure it hop-by-hop, and

  b.) the DLCI is not a globally unique identifier, like the MAC address in
  the case of an Ethernet switch, rather has only local significance and it
  might change along the path (aka PVC) from switch to switch.


Actually, there is such a thing as a universal DLCI. PVO and I and a
couple of other folks researched this thoroughly one Saturday a couple of
years ago. It is an extension to the standard, and allows( going from memory
here )  for an extended DLCI field that supports a 15 bit identifier. This
means that a unique DLCI is assigned to every customer device in the cloud.

The DLCI field is actually infinitely recursively extensible, not 
just to 15 bits. But there's a reasonable question -- why try to make 
a connection-oriented L2 service do what IP or MPLS can do more 
flexibly?


To my knowledge, no telco supports this, for a lot of reasons, not the least
of which is the complexity and the lack of capacity to support end to end
across several provider networks.



An enterprise running it's own frame network, say using Stratacom equipment,
for example, might find this of value.

How would this be superior to simply routing, where you have IP 
addresses?  I suppose that if you had the Stratacoms and couldn't 
afford to get rid of them...


I've done a couple of quick looks on CCO and have not found any links. My
recollection is that we researched outside of cisco to find the info, and
there may be some links on CCO but my phrasing is not turning them up

just another bit of pretty much useless information I've run across over the
years. :-

The standards-speak is recursive extensibility, but I doubt Cisco 
supports it -- it doesn't solve problems for which there isn't a 
better solution.

People forget the origin of Frame Relay: it was intended as a 
low-speed access service to ATM.  The Gang of Four popularized it as 
a general interface, just as the ATM Forum popularized UNI.

Re: Cisco 640-100 MCNS exam [7:71388]

2003-06-25 Thread annlee
FWIW--

The 640-100 is being retired 30 Sep 2003, so you may want to consider taking
the new SECUR exam (642-501), which just went active 17 Jun. Granted, there
aren't a lot of materials published for it, but the published material for
MCNS is poor. My opinion of the exam is shared by a more experienced old
hand locally, who took the same exam not too long before I did.

The exam was really quite poor -- lots of questions about configuration
options in AAA (which options in authenticate vs. authorize, for instance).
I recall very few -- if any -- questions about the PIX. Much of the
information was, frankly, old, which is why I recommend the newer exam.
Also, I had a handful of questions which were word-for-word the same as a
commercial practice exam. That practice test was of very little use -- it
did not reflect the exam content (and I am very unhappy with the
explanations behind the answers).

For more information, feel free to contact me offline, understanding I will
not violate the NDA.

serial interface and pinging [7:71391]

2003-06-25 Thread p b
Found this a bit unusual... have a feel for why it works
this way, but figured I'd float this to the list for
thoughts...

Got two routers connected via a serial interface. 

R1 is assigned 192.168.2.1/30 on its serial
R2 is assigned 192.168.2.2/30 on its serial

On R1, do a debug ip icmp

And then from R1, do a ping 192.168.2.1 (the IP on
it's local serial interface).

Interestingly we see the following:

r2511#ping 192.168.2.1

Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.2.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 68/73/84 ms
r2511#
01:35:35: ICMP: redirect rcvd from 192.168.2.2 -- for 192.168.2.1 use gw
192.168.2.1
01:35:35: ICMP: echo reply sent, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:35: ICMP: echo reply rcvd, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:35: ICMP: echo reply sent, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:35: ICMP: echo reply rcvd, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:36: ICMP: echo reply sent, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:36: ICMP: echo reply rcvd, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:36: ICMP: echo reply sent, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:36: ICMP: echo reply rcvd, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:36: ICMP: echo reply sent, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1
01:35:36: ICMP: echo reply rcvd, src 192.168.2.1, dst 192.168.2.1

Two items of interest:

1) The router, when pinging it's local IP, actually transmits
the packets onto the interface with source and destination being
the interface's local IP address.  The packets aren't looped
internally, as I would have expected, but are looped via the
remote router.

2) Router R2 sends an ICMP redirect suggesting a
more efficient way to reach 192.168.2.1.


Interesting behavior

Loopback connection on Switch with STP [7:71394]

2003-06-25 Thread Shibu Nair
May find it very simple but could not find an accurate answer... Did not 
have a lab switch
to try it out...

If i make a loopback (cross cable) connectivity between 2 ports within the 
switch.
And having the STP enabled on the switch, what would be the status for the 
ports...

I thought it is one will be blocking and one will be forwarding.

Is that a right statement ?

What if the bridge will act as root bridge (according to theory, ports on 
the root bridge
should be on forward mode) ? But then the loop would be there...

Your advice is appreciated.
Thank you

Those corporate managers are wrong.  They may want to look up the term
lab-rat and see how it is commonly used, especially on this ng.

Also, consider this.  Those people who really think that the CCIE is
impossible to pass without experience should freely support (or at least
have no objection to) an idea I've been pushing for awhile - namely
requiring a minimum number of years of verifiable networking experience in
order to be eligible to take the exam, and for which all candidates would be
subject to a random background check to catch liars - similar to how some
companies run background checks on their job candidates.  If it's
categorically true that nobody could ever pass the lab without experience,
then this new requirement should not be a problem, right?

   I just don't believe that you can not
 find a job if you are experienced and certified.  It might not
 be your dream job. it might not pay as much as you thought you
 would be making now.  And it might require you to relocate. 
 But there are jobs out there.

The issue is not finding a job, any job.  I agree that if you're willing to
work for, say, minimum wage, and relocate to Podunk, then you can probably
find a job.

But that's the rub, isn't it?  How many experienced people are willing to
work for puny pay and be forced to relocate when, quite frankly, they don't
have to?  In particular, how many are going to do it when they can simply
transfer into another profession that pays better and doesn't require them
to relocate?  I am not aware of any mandate that requires you to work in
networking simply because you're a CCIEr or simply because you have a lot of
experience in it.  Take the case of my highly experienced CCIE buddies who
went back to UNIX admin-work.  Sure, they COULD continue to be network guys
if they were willing to take grand-mal paycut, but why should they when they
can continue to get a nice UNIX redux paycheck?

Therefore when people say there are no jobs, they don't mean that there are
literally no jobs, they mean that the overall quality of the jobs has
declined dramatically (something which I doubt anybody will seriously
dispute) such that other options look mighty attractive by comparison. 
People will therefore leave this field not because there are literally no
jobs, but because other fields other decidedly better opportunities.

 Any good manager would be rather foolish to not appreciate, and compensate

 Caveats: NOTE - I said the following -incredibly- subjective things:
 good manager

 .. furthermore the valued employee part may be invoking a bit of
circular
 login, since the value may be seen as directly related to the
 compensation.  Alternatively - your level of compensation may also be more
 indicative of what you WERE worth to the company AT ONE TIME, and if it
 exceeds certain levels may actually decrease your overall value to the
 company. (the highest paid are the first to go)

Back in the days when baseball was understood to be the ultimate expression
of American values, this may have been true. Take each individual and weigh
his/her strengths and weaknesses, consider the overall value of heir
contribution, and decide on that basis. These days, when football is king,

 Hey, if the employer wants to do that, there is nothing wrong at all.
 What's 'wrong' is that you apparently expect them to do so.  The employer

Yes. The switch ports will see the BPDUs from each other. One will have a
lower Port ID so they can use that to make a decision. There's finally a use
for the Port ID! :-)

 
 What if the bridge will act as root bridge (according to
 theory, ports on
 the root bridge
 should be on forward mode) ? But then the loop would be there...

This would be an exception. The port with the higher Port ID would defer to
what it thinks is a better designated bridge on the other port. IEEE did
actually think of this. (I think it's mentioned in the standard anyway. It
is definitely mentioned in Radia Perlman's Interconnections book.)

You don't need a cross-over cable to test it. You could use a hub and
connect 2 of the hub ports to 2 ports on the switch and completely break the
hierarchical design model!?

Cosmic rays?? [7:71402]

2003-06-25 Thread Juan Carlos Perez
We have a Cisco  VIP card plugged into a 7500 router. Every once in a while
the card  just stops working and sometimes it gets stuck so hard that we
have to reload the microcode. The last we did that, the router crashed and
had to be reset (Ugly!). Well, it gets worse. After having to convince the
guys at the local Cisco office to help us in this issue, they came to our
facilities and began their analysis. To make a long story short, they told
us that these problems were caused by cosmic rays! We almost fainted! Cosmic
rays!
Has anybody around here ever heard of this problem in this combo?  Let me
tell you this router is not installed in a spaceship or something like that,
it4s just an ordinary datacenter.
Any ideas about what the real problem might be?

P. S. The router is using a recent version of IOS (newer than 12.1) and has
been patched as per the Cisco site.

Thanks a lot for any advice on this issue.

While the game of baseball itself may in the past have neatly symbolized
American individualism, ironically you wouldn't know it from the salaries
paid to baseball players in those supposedly gloried old days.  Before the
days of free agency, players were paid far far less than they would have
been paid in an open and free market.  You'd think that if anybody would
have understood the importance of providing proper compensation for
individual performance in line with the spirit of the game of baseball, it
would have been the baseball team owners themselves.

But I digress...

No. Passive interface means it doesn't send Hellos, which it would need to

RE: serial interface and pinging [7:71391]

2003-06-25 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer
Yes, it's true that when you ping your own serial interface, the ping
actually crosses the serial link! You can also see evidence of it by
enabling debugging on the other side.

When I first saw this documented on a Cisco page, I submitted a
documentation bug report. :-)

I guess it's the only way you'll get a response? It seems awfully weird
though...

 Interestingly we see the following:

 Two items of interest:
 
 1) The router, when pinging it's local IP, actually transmits
 the packets onto the interface with source and destination being
 the interface's local IP address.  The packets aren't looped
 internally, as I would have expected, but are looped via the
 remote router.
 
 2) Router R2 sends an ICMP redirect suggesting a
 more efficient way to reach 192.168.2.1.
 
 
 Interesting behavior

Re: PortFast and routers [7:71253]

2003-06-25 Thread Hemingway
 Curious  wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Hello,

 I know that is a bad idea to configure a port with portfast when this
port
 connect with other switch (loops can be created), but the question is:
could
 I put a port connected to a router in portfast mode? A router is a layer 3
 device not a layer 2, so I think this is not a risk, am I right? This way
 the port wakes up quickly, right? And the final question: If I configure a
 portfast port with a trunk an connect it to a router?

My understanding of the reason for the existence of the portfast function in
the first place had to do with startup times for protocols like IPX. I can
recall in one production network I managed, where we ran IP and IPX, it was
not uncommon for a machine to boot on the IP side but fail to boot on the
IPX side - the IPX side timed out prior to establishing a connection with an
IPX server. I could browse the internet, for example, but I was unable to
log on to the Novell server. The solution was portfast on all the
switchports to which servers and users connected.

A router isn't going to care one way or another since it is not logging on
to anything. So the answer is that it can't hurt.

I'm curious - what is it you think will be gained?




 Thanks my friends.

Re: Cosmic rays?? [7:71402]

2003-06-25 Thread annlee
The only thing close to your story is the comment from Robert and Barbara
Thompson in _PC Hardware In A Nutshell, 2e_ where they comment that on a
device used as a server or any other PC that needs a large RAM, they always
use ECC memory (Error Checking and Correction) because (honest!) cosmic rays
do strike.

Quote:
One common cause of flipped bit memory errors is, believe it or not,
cosmic rays. The more memory you have installed, the more likely it is that
a random cosmic ray will impact one of the memory cells in a chip on your
system, causing the contents of that cell to flip from binary zero to a one
or vice versa. We don't pretend to understand this issue, but we've been
told by memory experts that for systems with 512MB of RAM, using ECC versus
non-parity memory is about an even trade-off in terms of extra cost and lost
performance versus the likelihood of memory errors. For systems with 768MB+,
we use ECC memory exclusively.
End quote (pp201-2).

However ... that could also be a Real Convenient Excuse. Do you have any
kind of other experience with the people who said this (like, are they
naturally FUD-prone)?
