Re: fao: Catalyst Gurus [7:8177]
you should enable portfast (diasbles stp) this should speed things up Cheers Colin At 11:29 AM 6/12/01 -0400, Larry Ogun-Banjo wrote: We have just installed some new catalyst switches 650x and 69xx.

Are there any commands that would speedup the network discovery or is this normal behaviour on a new port? Pardon this trivial question but it would help.

Thanks for clarifying that. cheers Colin At 06:16 PM 6/12/01 +0200, Reinhold Fischer wrote: Not quite correct. PortFast does not disable STP. It puts a port initially into 'Forwarding' state and then watches if loops occur. If for some reason the port is forced into 'Blocking' state and later needs to return to the 'Forwarding' state, it has to go through the 'Listening' and 'Learning' phases. hth Reinhold On Tue, 12 Jun 2001, Colin Byelong wrote: you should enable portfast (diasbles stp) this should speed things up Cheers Colin At 11:29 AM 6/12/01 -0400, Larry Ogun-Banjo wrote: We have just installed some new catalyst switches 650x and 69xx.

CBT disks [7:7310]
Hi, i was wondering if anyone has any experiences of the Learnkey or NETg computer based training disks. I have been asked to get some cisco training for my colleagues, any thoughts ?? cheers Colin -- Colin Byelong Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Network Group Information Systems Division University College London Gower Street Phone: 020 7679-2572 London WC1E 6BT Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=7310t=7310 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: CBT disks [7:7310]
Thanks Rashid, We have got lots of cisco equipment here so they can easily get hands-on experience but we are looking for some training as well.

I enjoyed them and found them interesting, clear, concise and useful, but not as detailed as using a book. Good as a supplement to your main studying, ie. reading, taking practise exams, hands-on labs, but not as a substitute to the real hard work.

configuring 3524 lan switch
Hi, we have a number of 3524 cisco lan switches and i can't seem to find a command to configure muliple ports to a vlan at the same time in cat os the command is set vlan vlan number port number or range eg. 5/1-24, 6/1-1 The only way i can do this on a 3500 series is through the web interface unless you know better. cheers colin **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.

Re: configuring 3524 lan switch
Phil, Thanks for the info, so you don't know if there is a command to change speed, duplex, vlan membership etc, in the ios 6500 there is a command interface range interface number to do this and you can specify ranges in the catos, why not in the 3500. cheers Colin At 04:03 PM 9/11/00 +0100, Phil Barker wrote: Colin, I normally cut and paste for 2924 and 3524 switches. i.e do one port by hand in notepad or whatever and then build up your config via cut and paste editing the interface number along the way. Then go to "conf t" on the target switch and cut and paste the lot.
