Re: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] 2nd Terry Slattery quote [7:52165]
Actually, I thought/read/heard that CCIE #1025 (aka the first CCIE) was/is Jeff Buddemeier, technical lead for Cisco. This is the first time I ever heard the name Stewart Biggs mentioned as CCIE #1025. - Original Message - From: Daniel Cotts To: Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 4:01 PM Subject: RE: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] 2nd Terry Slattery quote [7:52159] In my previous post I quoted a post from Terry Slattery regarding the first CCIEs. In it he did not recall the name of CCIE# 1025. In the quoted post below he does provide a name. snip The first CCIE, #1025, is/was Stewart Biggs. My understanding is that his certification has lapsed and he's off doing something else. I took the test from him in August, 1993 and became the second CCIE, #1026. The lab itself had a plaque outside the door labeling it as #1024 (a power of two - kind of an inside joke for networking/compuer jocks). unsnip -Original Message- From: MADMAN [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 1:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] CCIE 1040 sits next to me and I asked him if Imran (sp?) was his proctor and it was. Imran designed the orgianal program and it's our guess he was the proctor for the 1st CCIE. Imran was pretty tough, I remember talking to him at networkers in Denver when the CCIE recert first came out and about 100 of us took the test and only 2 passed. He chuckled stating his intention was to make it difficult so as to require studying.

Over the years, some have retired, some have neglected to recertify ( including Jeff Doyle, last time I looked ) So according to Cisco's numbers, on July 31 2002 there were 8031 active CCIE's. As a sidebar, Terry Slattery, CCIE 1026, tells how he was tested by CCIE 1025 ( sorry, I can't remember the name ) The theory was / remains that only CCIE's should test candidates. No one seems to know who tested #1025, nor the criteria used.

Re: Cisco Lab Changes..Updated [7:46623]
Do you have the link for this change? I've just searched CCO, the CCIE what's new area specifically, and I see no mention of this anywhere. - Original Message - From: Frank Merrill To: Sent: Friday, June 14, 2002 3:43 PM Subject: Cisco Lab Changes..Updated [7:46623] It would appear that the changes to the Lab have been clarified and updated, and it looks like the removal of the indicated topics won't actually happen until Nov 4th now: Lab Exam Content and Equipment Changes CCIE Candidates should note the following changes to the technical content and equipment for the CCIE Lab exam. The content changes affect the CCIE Routing and Switching Lab exam, while the equipment changes affect all CCIE certification tracks. The CCIE program continually monitors the topics and technologies covered in the CCIE certification tracks. The end result of this process is that a topic may be removed from the exam to allow greater emphasis on features or technologies that are more current in the industry. Therefore, effective November 4th, 2002, the following topics will no longer be tested on the CCIE Routing and Switching exam: IGRP Token Ring Token Ring Switching IPX Please note that DLSw+ will remain as a valid topic on the exam. Between September 1, 2002 and November 4th, 2002 all CCIE labs will replace the current Catalyst 5000 switches with Catalyst 3550 switches. However, the only switching features tested during this time will be those common to both devices - additional features on the Catalyst 3550 will only be tested after November 4th, 2002. Please note that except for the change in switches, no new topics are being added to the content covered by the Routing and Switching exam. However, many features currently tested will now be able to receive more weight on the exam after November 4th.

Congrats Roger!!! -Chuck On 11 May 2001 13:08:30 -0400, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Wang, Roger) wrote: Hi, all, After several attempts (both written and lab exams) and 14 months of part-time study, I got number 7364 in San Jose Wednesday, but it wasn't without scary moments. My advice to the group, besides the usual: 1. Read thru the archives and know the answers to the questions asked. I believe it's more helpful than anything else. 2. Get a study partner. Not only you get to learn from each other, but when you explain things to others, it helps you think thru things that you're not sure of. 3. Know where things are, or could be, in the CD. I had to use the CD a lot, but it didn't take much time for me to find things that I had never heard of before the exam. I also attended ECP1 which was great. You get to meet with people from all over the country who share the same goal. Plus, I learned much more during Day 5 (troubleshooting) than anything else. My home lab is set up especially for ccbootcamp's lab scenarios. Well, good luck to you all and don't even think about giving up! -Rog FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=4223t=4207 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: OT: Loopback [7:3973]
Do you have an atm card in your router? It sounds like to me, that you are seeing ATM OAM loopback cells every 10 seconds. If you have an atm card in your router, I'd look for the following in your configs: atm pvc x x x aal5snap pir sir inarp oam 10 Your config may differ of course, but the point is, look at your atm pvc config statement on the interface. You will see oam 10 in there somewhere. Remove the oam 10 from the atm pvc, and this will disable it.

RE: CCIE Written ...really dumb Q`s [7:3161]
Here's the answer from the ICRC coursebook: If a Netware server is located on the segment, it will respond to the client request. The Cisco router will not respond to the GNS request. If there are no NetWare servers on the local network, the Cisco router can be configured to forward the GNS SAP to an appropriate remote NetWare server.
