Re: No longer 4 digits [7:52146] 2nd Terry Slattery quote [7:52165]

2002-08-27 Thread Chuck Ryan

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.

 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).

  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.

   shows the number of CCIE's world wide as of 7/31/02
  
   The first CCIE number issued was 1025.  Over the years,

   some have neglected to recertify ( including Jeff Doyle, last time I

   So according to Cisco's numbers, on July 31 2002 there were

   As a sidebar, Terry Slattery, CCIE 1026, tells how he was

   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 Press OSPF? [7:50567]

The Cisco Press OSPF book by Tom Thomas would go great with Dr. Parkhurst's
book as well.

 Might consider this one:

 Cisco OSPF Command and Configuration Handbook
 by  William R. Parkhurst

 I haven't read this one myself, but according to the reviews it is written
 in the same vein as his BGP book, which I believe is a far better way to
 learn the knobs.

  All,
 
  Looking for a book that will cover OSPF in detail outside of the BSCN
 book.
  I recently purchased Internet Routing Architectures to give me more
  detailed knowledge of BGP, but need to round out the OSPF with another
 book.
  Any advice?
 
  Thanks

 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.

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!

Re: OT: Loopback [7:3973]

2001-05-10 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Chuck Ryan)

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.

HTH,

To me, the best one would be (a). because the router will do one of the
two things when it gets GNS -- ignore it, or reply to it. It will never
pass the GNS to anyone else.

James

There should be an answer (D) none of the above.
The router will not pass a GNS to anyone else, instead, it will send a reply 
with information about the nearest server.

RE: CCIE Written ...really dumb Q`s [7:3161]

2001-05-04 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Chuck Ryan)

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.

I think 

Router will look up in his SAP table and if he knows any server, he will
forward the GNS to the server he knows.
