Re: OT: ISP BGP Gripe

2001-01-10 Thread Andy Walden

 
 Now, with Verio...  It's taken them days to get back to me and now, even
 though we already have access through them, they want to charge a $500 setup
 fee to run BGP.  It's not that we don't have the $500 (we're a bank, ya
 know) but it seems silly to charge $500 for about two minutes worth of work,
 especially when they're already charging more for the dedicated line than
 Sprint is!

You hope. Took them 4 hours to figure out how to announce routes to us.
 
 Is an extra fee to run BGP common?  I'm very new to this, but I'm irritated
 by Verio and feel like griping about it anyway.  This entire  experience
 with Verio has me quite underwhelmed.

No, BGP is a standard configuration and as far as I know, we weren't
charged. I think its time to get the sales rep on the phone and let him
know that the experience has been very ugly compared to Sprint and your
taking quotes to replace your Verio circuit. This should provide leverage
to drop that charge, but your probably too late to get better pricing like
you probably could have.

Re: ISDN Simulator

2001-01-07 Thread Andy Walden


Depending upon your location maybe you could order a couple of ISDN
lines. Where I'm at, for residental, they are $40 flat rate monthly. You
could have them installed for nearly two years before they approached the
cost of the simulator.

 Hi,  all
 
 I know this has been discussed, and after spending my free time this weekend
 searching high and low for a reasonably priced ISDN simulator, I am forced
 to conclude there is no such beast.   EBAY is a bust thus far,  and the best
 price I have found is for a Teltone (www.teltone.com) ISDN simulator at
 http://www.bigdcom.com/teleline.html.  Big D is a Groupstudy recommended
 site;  they sell the ISDN simulator about 1600 bucks, give or take some
 change.
 
 Now to the crux of my dilemma:  do I or don't I?  That is, ask my Mistress
 for this for Christmas, Halloween, and so forth.  She is standing here
 reading this, so I appreciate how wonderful she is! So beautiful with great
 taste in men!   Also, very heroic:  she kept me from drinking a coffee
 flavored Slim Fast (we were out of beer).
 
 Before I approach the checkbook with hat in hand, is this best price?  I
 mean, really?  Has anyone else had better luck?  I hate the thought of
 spending 1600 bucks on a 100 bucks worth of wiring and chips.  Perhaps is it
 time for Groupstudy to form a buyer's union, where we can pool our money and
 buy in bulk at almost wholesale prices.  Good idea?  Bad idea?  Too much
 headache potential?
 
 Luckily for me, Big D is in the Dallas area so I plan on there in person and
 talking to them about these simulators and their prices.  If interested, I
 will let the group know what happens.  If not, I'll keep mum.
 
 Flames, comments all welcome!

Re: Simple modem connections

2001-01-07 Thread Andy Walden


As someone that ran a dialup ISP for a number of years I have learned that
sometimes you just need to refer them to the competition. Don't get me
wrong. We usually would schedule a tech to head out and give it his best,
but if he couldn't rattle something loose we would assume it was just a
fluke between switching offices. Sometimes it simply does not work...

 Hi all,
 
 Here I am sitting a work thinking just how simple it is to look after dial-up

 I have a person that calls into a router, connects, authenticates all seems fine.  
When I ping him I lose pings between the access router and the client.  He connects a 
48K I have had him remove compression and error correction from the modem this stops 
him dropping.  
 
 OK. the fault seems to be on the line at his end I have some 200+ other dialups into 
the access router with no worries.  I have the line checked out the tests come up 
fine.  What's more the same person can dial into another service using the same 
equipment at his end but different equipment at the service provider end and all is 
fine I am assured.
 
 My next thing is to move the service to another access router only to find the 
problem is still there.
 
 He is the only one having trouble yet we seem to be the onlyones having trouble with 
him.
 
 EASY ISN'T IT.  If it wasn't for little things like this I'd be unemployable.

 Good day,
 
 It seems that I'm stuck with a problem on my customer network. I doesn't
 have much
 idea about LANE and their existing network setup since it is managed by
 other vendors
 so the bottom line is that I cannot view their cisco router configuration at
 all.
 However base on their existing updated network schematic design, they have 4
 core
 catalyst switches with RSM module and few distribution  floor switches.
 
 My current HP Openview and CiscoWorks configuration pointing the address of
 the local
 catalyst RSM IP with SNMP read-only enabled. I'm expecting that the HP
 Openview
 to discover all the devices in the network while the CiscoWorks discover all
 the routers
 in the network by looking on the routing table in RSM.
 
 At the end, it turns up that both of the network management software didn't
 discover
 any devices in the network even the after 2 days leaving it on my table to
 discover.
 Do you guys think that I should replicate/mirror all the other VLANs traffic
 into my network
 management port (SPAN)?
 
 Any idea or improvement should I look forward in case I left our any of
 requirements?
 
 Thanks in advance.
 
 p/s: I'll be appreciate that if you intend to asked a question, please reply
 to my email and I
 will reply to your query to the group again to illuminate unnecessary

This is correct. You don't use full duplex if you are competing for
bandwidth, ie, plugged into a hub. But if you are plugged into a switch,
there is only one bandwidth domain between the device and switch and
with nothing competing for the bandwidth on that link so you can go full
duplex.

RE: Weekend Challenge - Route Aggregation

2000-12-17 Thread Andy Walden

 In order to send a plausible route to the rest of the Internet, AS2 
 must advertise both the aggregate 96.0.0.0/14 and the more-specific 
 96.0.0.0/22.  AS3 must also advertise 96.0.0.0/22.  So, AS2, for 
 legitimate reasons, is sending less-than-optimally-aggregated 
 announcements.

This of course is the obvious answer to the question. Another part would
be that AS1 should be able to advertise that space any way it would like
to, like with prepends for instance. If AS2 aggregated anyway, not only
would they not recieve any traffic, but they would create an atomic
aggregate that looses the intended information announced by AS1. When this

Are you sure that your tftpboot directory is /cisco on the machine? Is the
machine unix or windows? make sure the permissions are 777 if its
unix. Also, make sure you have enough room in your flash for the file. dir

Re: Access List question

2000-12-13 Thread Andy Walden


You can do it based on subnet. If you could narrow down the largest legal
subnet in the block of ips you wanted to deny then block the left over
ones with a smaller subnet or individuals. Good planning and design says
things like this should fall on subnet lines.

Re: Clock Rate Wire Rate Bandwidth

clock rate 64000 for instance. the clock rate is only configured on the
dce.

 1. What is the relationship (if any) between the wire rate and the clock
 rate?

the clock rate is the number of bits that can be transmitted in a
second. this equals your bandwidth.

 2. What is the relationship if any between the clock rate and the bandwidth?

same as above.

 3. How could clock rate speed be "gentle on cables"? (See archive bellow)

I have no idea what he means by gentle on the calbes unless he was using
old cat-3 that was error prone. the running less traffic for debugs makes
sense as you as a human can only process so much intelligently.

  The former also do not have a trained pool of network engineers to

  Cisco IOS offers one consistent interface  CLI throughout most of its

Are the connections to two different providers? Assuming they are and you

Re: VLSM

2000-12-12 Thread Andy Walden


You should have VLSM down by the time you start reading BSCN. Find any
introductory book and it should present it plenty, Intro to Cisco Routing
for instance, or something like http://www.howtosubnet.com or even typing
subneting into a seach engine produced hundreds of relevant results.

 Would anyone going through or have already passed their BSCN have a web

 accordance to how you answer the questions.

I hope that no one minds when I fudge my survey to reflect I haven't

Re: eXtreme ,juniper, Foundary and Cisco

2000-12-11 Thread Andy Walden


I think that training and certificates is a market all unto itself. The
Cisco training portion could break out and stand alone because you still
have to know about the foundations of network to get through it. When
someone else develops a training and cert program as comprehensive, then
the training sector will also see competition.

Honest mistake I'm sure. The real test will be how well they clean it

their prices beat amazon to a pulp and their turn around on delivery was
pretty good too. It no longer makes sense for me to buy from amazon

Re: Spanning Tree Bridge Identifier

The way spanning tree works to determine the root bridge it chooses the
lowest MAC address. It looks like your 2500 is choosing a MAC address
randomly to ensure it can participate in this process properly.

Re: TFTP

2000-12-10 Thread Andy Walden


Did you bother checking before you have that answer?

You can configure the network server to act as a limited Trivial File
Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server from which other Cisco servers can boot
their software. As a TFTP server host, the network server responds to TFTP
read request messages by sending a copy of its ROM software to the
requesting host. The TFTP read request message must use the file name that
you specified in the network server configuration.

To specify TFTP server operation for a communications server, use the
tftp-server system global configuration command. The full syntax follows.

tftp-server system filename list
no tftp-server system filename list 
This command has two arguments: filename and list. The argument filename
is the name you give the communications server ROM file, and the argument
list is an IP access-list number. 

The system sends a copy of the ROM software to any host which issues a
TFTP read request with this file name. To learn how to specify an access
list, see the "Configuring IP Access Lists" section in the chapter
"Routing IP."

You can specify multiple file names by repeating the tftp-server system
command. To remove a previously defined file name, use the no tftp-server
system command and append the appropriate file name and an access-list
number.

Images that run from ROM, including IGS images, cannot be loaded over the
network. Therefore, it does not make sense to use TFTP to offer the ROMs
on these images.

Example:
This command causes the router to send, via TFTP, a copy of the ROM
software when it receives a TFTP read request for the file configfile. The
requesting host is checked against access list 22.

tftp-server system configfile 22

Re: Switching Black Book by Sean Odom and Hanson Nottingham

2000-12-10 Thread Andy Walden


Stupid,

I appreciate you reply. It caused me to take a closer look into your
comments and I came across this from Carl Hagan in May2000.

"Obviously,  you have never met Sean Odom or heard him speak.  He is
probably one of the most knowledgable Cisco consultants ever to grace our
presence. You know why he doesn't keep up with this group?  Because
everyone has comments like this.  It keeps the people who this group could
use the most from keeping up with the list.  If we all paid more attention
to the technical problems we have and the learning we need, we would have
people like Sean Odom and Todd Lammle keeping up with the group.  Who has
time for the Soap Opera that this group list is providing?"

It does sound like this Carl guy has an unnatural fascination with this
Sean guy. 

Just fueling the fire...

Re: How Big a router for Full BGP routes?

2000-12-08 Thread Andy Walden



 According to this afternoon's Bates Report, there are over 95,000 routes
 being advertised across the internet, at least from the vantage point of the
 gentleman doing the reporting.
 
 I bring this up because a week ago, the reporter saw 93,000 routes.

At some point this week they were at 110,000 also. Some weird anamoly
occured.
 
 Historically, in September 1996 there were about 40,000 routes advertised.
 In September 1998 that number was around 50,000.
 
 I gotta wonder how much of this increase is due to people multiple homing
 with different ISP's so they can "load balance across the internet"? :-

Sure, more /24's on the net then ever...

 In any case, for those who ask "how big a router do I need to handle the
 full internet routing table?" the answer may well be "how many months do you
 want to keep the same unit in service?"

I was recently reading about a startup think-tank that was actually
looking at the problem of the growing route table and how to handle it
with some forethought as opposed to just throwing more hardware at it. 

I will offer that unless you are a tier-1/2 provider, you don't need full
route tables though. All most multihomed networks with 2-4 peers need is
their provider's customer routes to make intelligent routing
decisions. Anything else can be tweaked as needed, but ultimatly things
are generally connected enough it doesn't much matter...
 
 Can you imagine what this would be without CIDR?

Much less I would bet, then again maybe not since we would be long out of
IP space and dealing with all those IPv6 routes..

RE: !H

 A routing loop will generally bounce back and forth between two
 interfaces when you do a traceroute. Host unreachable just means the box
 is down and a route still remains for it.

  I think you have a routing loop as is described here.  Ping from several
  stations and map it out.

RE: HELP!! Confused beginner. [1:966]

2000-11-19 Thread Andy Walden


I think the idea is versatility. Its nice that you want a desk job. You 
open yourself up to more opportunities when you don't restrict yourself 
though. Generally network types are a mixture anyway. Bottom line is you
set a goal and do it. When your done your a different place with a
different point of view and set your next goal based on that view and how
achieving your last goal suited you. I don't know about the rest of you,
but I'm at desk most of the time that I'm working on the equipment. Sure
with installs and outages I'm crouched with a laptop balanced on my knees,
but they hurt after awhile. You need to do what you think will make you
happy. Btw, I don't classify my work as a desk job as I'm generally
bouncing off the walls. Of course there are those times when you wrestle
with a coworker or strangle customer...but not as often :)

 be a greater value to anyone who employs me in the future (it will also
 enhance my paycheck significantly). I compare this to my previous
 incarnation as a server jockey (network admin) where we took a very vendor
 centric approach (similarity = ease of management, less problems = less
 marketability due to lack of diversity). I grant you that all NOC positions
 will not have the varied type of interaction that I get, but I think that
 getting in the door and gaining some experience is the important thing, not
 where you get in at.

 I'm afraid you won't have much luck finding an office type job that
 makes use of a Cisco cert.  The closest thing I can think of in my
 experience is to work in a NOC (Network Operations Center) of some corporate
 data center, but that would be a waste of a good opportunity to make a
 better salary actually working on the equipment, besides it gets awful old
 just sitting in a chair all day.  If you like networking just go for it, ya
 never know, you might like the high pace of Cisco life.

  This message might be out of place for all of you that know what you are
  doing, but maybe someone can help. I have recently decided to look into
  getting into the telecommunications, data communications line of work and
 am
  having trouble knowing where to get started. I am a college student, but I
  would have years to go if I decided to try and get a degree in that kind
 of
  thing right now. I have so many different answers about where to start,
 and
  Im confused.
  I am interested in getting some sort of work-in-an-office job (as oppossed
  to an on-the-field one) and I wondered what types of jobs someone who was
  CCNA certified might be able to get. I have connections at Verizon and
  Northpoint and would like to work in an environment like that, but need to
  know what traiing is the correct one! Someone told me that my best bet is
 to
  become CCNA certified before anything else.
  Anyway, any guidance as to where to start would be helpful!
  Thanks!

Re: suggestions please! - for projects

2000-11-19 Thread Andy Walden



Put all the configs into CVS and keep revision control on them.

Setup a TACACS+ server to centtral password control.

Setup MRTG to monitor all of your interfaces.

Setup a lab.

Get a few copies of Visio, use them.

 Hello group! , I have been given the task of coming up
 with projects for next year for our wide area network
 that would fall under these three catagories
 1. Reliability ( making network more reliable)
 
 2. Documentation
 
 3. New technology
 
 So far some of the things i have been able to come up
 with are: 
 upgrading IOS on routers in the field
 verifying serial/model numbers on all routers
 Implement VPN
 Test Satellite usage as a temporary option
 
 I need many more projects ... can anyone share some of
 their "beginner" projects or suggest things i could
 look into to cover these three things?
 any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED because i have
 until tomorrow! :)
