RE: Hello (long response) [7:5788]

Nrf, I always look forward to hearing your view. Your points are valid, and
I very much agree to your acknowledgement of the merging worlds of network
and systems engineering. As far as personnel management, though, my first
rule is to make decisions in the best interest of the company while ensuring
the staff is challenged and fulfilled. If Adrian's staff was not challenged
due to the diminished role of Routing and Switching, I don't believe his
first course of action should have been to throw them away. If they were
contractors to whom the company was not obligated to train outside the scope
of the original project, then concessions could have been made to
renegotiate the rate in return for realigned objectives. If they weren't
contractors, this is an example of a dangerous trend in all business
environments. There are ways around throwing an employee on the street. I
don't care WHAT kind of budget you have to work with. Sometimes cuts can't
be avoided regardless of the belt tightening that a department may do, but
this case does not seem to be one where an executive decision was made to
eliminate X amount of headcount. This list has provided countless posts of
industry aces taking massive pay cuts to put food on the table. It may be my
weakness to not have the "killer instinct" that Adrian has displayed, but
I'd rather offer any position I could as a Unix or security admin at a
lowered rate, than to take away someone's entire livelihood.

I stated this before on the other thread, but I'll state it again.  While I
think that the way Adrian handled the situation was beyond the pale (and I
think everybody here on this newsgroup knows that I ain't no wallflower), I
have to say that I actually do agree somewhat with the gist of what he was
saying.  Let's face it - R/S skills are simply not as demanded as they were
in the past, and if R/S people want to maintain their high salaries (or even
keep their job), they better develop different skills.   IT has always been
an industry of flux, where skills that used to command high pay one day no
longer do so the next day.  Anybody who expects to keep a job but who
can't/won't update their skills to whatever happens to be demanded by the
marketplace at the time is playing a dangerous game indeed.

But again, that's not so say that I condone Adrian's methods.

Agreed.
Help you need maybe with grammar to be speaking about no skills others have.
 
People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones - especially if, what you say
is true, you are in a managerial role. I find it hard to believe that you
would have such little respect for others and still be able to successfully
lead others.

I have a recommendation for your personal and professional growth. If you
wish to progress to managerial or executive level positions, you must master
communication skills. Your opinions will be taken far more seriously if you
can set personal assessments aside and not confuse your subject matter with
mechanical and grammatical errors.

One final question. 
What was the job description of these CCIE's you abruptly terminated? I
certainly hope you stated Unix administation or web server management when
they were hired. If you didn't, and then didn't give them the opportunity to
learn the skills for which they were terminated, you will likely have legal
issues to contend with. On the other hand, if this was in their job
description, the interview process has failed you and your company wasted
quite a bit of money in the salaries and benefits paid in hiring these
engineers. I have, unfortunately, seen both of these scenarios first-hand.

I respect your technical prowess, I wish you the best in your managerial
pursuits, but most of all I sympathize for the 4 CCIE's that are now out of
work.

Elping,
Please do NOT make any statements regarding CheckPoint Firewall without
knowing all the facts.  I've been working with both Checkpoint and Pix
firewalls.  I even build a few "franken" pix firewalls so that I can learn
as much as I can about Cisco Pix firewalls.  The "franken" pix firewall
actually help me landed my current job that pays 100k/year.  Both CheckPoint
and Pix firewalls have its strength and weaknesses.  I agree that Cisco TAC
is much superior than CheckPoint support. The "no text configuration" that
you refer to in CheckPoint, you must be refered to running CheckPoint on
Winblows platforms.  NEVER RUN FIREWALL ON A GENERAL PURPOSE OPERATING
SYSTEM.  If you worry about cost, check out CheckPoint SecurePlatform.  If
you are "unix" literate, does the term "tcpdump" mean anything to you?
That's how you troubleshoot my friend. Now if you are talking about cost,
Cisco Pix will beat CheckPoint by a long shot in term of performance for
your $.  However, for a small/medium business, Checkpoint does come with a
lot of features such as URL filtering (native), http load balancing, etc
which Pix doesn't have (without 3rd party products).  For enterprise
environment, CheckPoint does come with ClusterXL (aka, load-sharing or
Active/Active Firewall), which again, Pix doesn't support.  Last but not
least, CheckPoint does have a very nice Management piece called "provider-1"
that Cisco Pix doesn't have. I do have to say that the price for CP products
is totally "outrageous"; however, CP is a good product. In terms of hardware
product, you can run CheckPoint on Nokia Platforms which is very stable and
proven product.  New version of Nokia firewalls do come with Flash instead
of hard-drive so that the reliability is very high.  Nokia is a big partner
with CP.  You can get CP support if you purchase Nokia firewalls from Nokia.
Nokia TAC is just as good as Cisco TAC. I've completed my first week at my
new job as a Security Engineer and I am amazed at the # of Cisco Certified
folks at my company that are completely incompetent and downright clueless
at what they can do.  We are a consulting company and being in the
consulting business, you are forced to know pretty much about everything. I
have a couple of CCIEs in the office came to me and ask me how to restart
sendmail and postfix (we are a linux shop) in linux.  Another CCIE asked me
how to use "nmap" in unix.  The last one is down right funny, one CCIE asked
how to start Apache

A loop could exist at the physical layer too. A newbie could connect the
hubs in such a way that there was a loop. And it could indeed cause problems
due to the fact that a hub doesn't make any intelligent decisions about what
it forwards, as you say, and doesn't participate in higher-layer
loop-avoidance solutions such as STP, Dijkstra, split horizon, etc. There
would be nothing to stop the looping bits. The very idea makes me cringe.
:-)

It's kind of funny that nobody thinks about this. A network of hubs must be
designed in a hierarchical fashion. I guess that is just second-nature to
people who grew up with hubs.

When hubs entered the market they allowed us to move away from the
ubiquitous bus topology and into a star (hub-and-spoke) topology. They
allowed us to start using the structured cabling that AT&T and other vendors
were starting to install, rather than the Christmas-tree-lights topology so
popular with coax cable and so prone to problems. As networks grew, it
became necessary to connect multiple hubs. The term that was often used was
"cascating hubs." Hubs cascaed from other hubs, within the rules related to
Ethernet propagation delay and collision detection.

 Response (Marisol) 11/21/2002 08:50 AM 
Dear Bill:

Thank you for your patience.

1) When using the logos for business cards or signatures, it is preferred
that you use the highest certification as those familiar with Cisco
certifications will know the order of certifications.

2) Signature lines, cover letters, or resumes can not reference that an
individual is a CCIE candidate. Only CCIE certified individuals should
reference their certification as they have already completed it.

3) Trademark violations are escalated to our legal team and are strictly
enforced. In addition to the loss of Cisco certifications, legal actions can
also be taken when this happens.

If you have any further questions, click on the hyperlink below to update,
review or generate a support request.

Subject: HSRP - Cat4006 stuck in INIT state [7:57771]


Trying to test HSRP between 2 Cat4006s running IOS 12.1(8a)EW1.

'Sho standby brief' says that the vlan routing never gets switched over to
standy router and stays in the "INIT" state.

Rtr 1 is standby for VLAN2
Rtr 2 is active for VLAN2

perform a shutdown on interface VLAN2 on rtr 2;

'sho stand brief' gives no ip addresses for active and standby rtrs., but
instead both say "INIT".

Any ideas?

tia,
Mary

The CCSP is basically just a realignment of the current Cisco Security
Specialist 1 certification into the Cisco Professional track. It does add
one more exam to the requirements but other than that no real change. Cisco
has even 'generously' allowed current CSS1s to take the remaining exam to
get the cert. :-)

As for the new specialist level certs, they are just dumbed down
^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H more focussed variations of the CSS1.

I really dont think Cisco have thought this one through as anyone who
attains CCSP (with the current versions of the exams), will also
automatically get three specialist level certs. In my opinion this totally
devalues the specialist level certs. They should be something that takes
specific specialised skill and knowledge to attain, not something you get
for free as part of the process of attaining an intermediate level
professional qualification.

RE: 1924 Switch [7:57017]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

During the transfer of the upgrade file, the switch might not respond to
commands for as long as 1 minute.  This is normal and correct.  If you
interrupt the transfer by turning the switch off and on, the firmware could
be corrupted.  If this happens, follow the procedure described in "Using the
Diagnostic Console" in the chapter "Troubleshooting" of the Installation and
Configuration guide to restart the firmware.

RE: 2600 bootstrap [7:57248]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

The bootstrap is loaded in the bootROM (read-only) unless you have a 2691
which is a non-FRU. If you go to the link below, it will guide you on the
replacement procedure. I ordered the chips over the phone through the cust
svc line (800)553-6387, option 2 then 6. I don't know what the going rate
is, I just upgraded my 2500's and they were FREE (plus shipping). So best of
luck!

RE: WLAN design [7:56806]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

I can also attest to Lucent/Orinoco for PCMCIA wireless NIC (best one I've
used), Gigafast 802.11b WAP, but the Belkin USB NIC is a bit flaky with
reception as well as driver problems in WinXP. Personally, I prefer a
standalone WAP vs. the integrated router devices.

How can you be a lawyer and be OK with using such imprecise language as
"ping in HyperTerminal." Please assure me that you understand what you're
really doing when you type characters in HyperTerminal.

You can "erase startup" and "reload" in HyperTerminal too. I highly
recommend you try it. Let us know what happens.

How can you ping from a DOS prompt if the destination is crossing a repeater
with a speed mismatch? A FastEthernet-only hub won't allow comms between
10Mb/s devices, so if you wouldn't have any visibility to that device,
whether from a DOS prompt, Hyperterminal, or anything...

I do understand the basics -- but I'm not able to ping anything from
hyperterminal -- (1) the router, (2) the PC -- but I am able to ping the
router from DOS.

My problem arose when I was unable to "copy flash tftp" I tried by process
of elimination to id the problem -- and it seemed to be hyperterminal.

However, in the past few moments, someone else wrote to me and inquired
about my hub (10/100 or 100!) -- mine is 100 only.  Thus, the routers (at
10) would not communicate.  I'm going to try and swap out the hub and see if
this helps.  I'm not a 100% certain that this will fix the problem -- but
I'm going to try it and see. One never knows.

RE: Problems w/Hyperterminal?? [7:56619]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

When setting up a connection in Hyperterm you can select TCP/IP Winsock
along with "direct to COM X"
If you want to use Hyperterm as a telnet client (though I can't think of any
benefit over using a generic DOS prompt - I use Procomm, myself) you only
need to make sure that your connection properties have that specified. 

If you are setting your connection up as Priscilla has mentioned, where you
are emulating a terminal attached to a remote station - i.e. a device
directly attached to your serial/COM port, then as has been stated, you
would be pinging not from your local machine, but rather the ICMP echo would
originate from the directly connected device.

what port is your hyperterminal set up to use? surely not your ethernet
port, since one uses hyperterminal for serial communications.

if you can ping from DOS to the router, then the ethernet  segment is OK

but your hyperterminal provides you only with a session to the router or
switch.

Greg - draw us a picture - what are you connected to with your hyperterminal
session?

Priscilla,

This doesn't explain why it says at the beginning of the survey (not sure if
this is true for all exams), "Your answers to this survey will help in the
grading of this exam" (not sure if these are the exact words). I've seen
this on some of my exams (not betas) when I've taken the time to read the
entire survey. Maybe they're talking about future exams. Who the hell knows
what Cisco does? Personally, I couldn't care less because the idea is to
know the material, not try to figure out a way to pass the exam knowing as
little as possible! :-)

No, your answers to the survey don't determine how the test is graded or the
types of questions you will get on the test. And aliens didn't land at
Roswell either. :-)

You should ask Cisco for the definitive answer, but I think numerous people
have before and we've discussed this on the list before, and that was the
answer. You could check the archives.

They ask you questions about your experience to help them validate the
questions. If a high percentage of newbies get a question wrong, but the
experienced people get it right, then it's a good question. And vice versa,
if the newbies get a question right but the experienced people don't, it
might be a bogus question, something like at what OSI layer does ARP run?
;-)

I've written tests in the past and that's how the data was used and I doubt
it has changed.

CCNP/BSCI news from CiscoPress [7:55726]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

=> Changes to CCNP(R) Routing Exam, Free Chapters coming from Cisco Press!
Cisco Systems has replaced the CCNP/CCDP(R) routing course Building Scalable
Cisco Networks (BSCN) with Building Scalable Cisco Internetworks (BSCI).
This course, already in existence as part of the CCIP(TM) certification, has
a very similar coverage to its predecessor BSCN, with an additional section
on the IS-IS protocol. The two Cisco Press titles originally created for
BSCN preparation, Building Scalable Cisco Networks and CCNP Routing Exam
Certification Guide, are excellent self-study tools for the new BSCI exam.
Cisco Press will be providing supplemental chapters to these titles on
IS-IS, posting them online for free download in mid-November. Visit
ciscopress.com now for some immediate IS-IS preparation resources! Learn

Emergency services and the like can obtain special numbers that are 
much more likely to be usable in a massive overload situation. 
Consult the National Communications System (www.ncs.gov). 
Essentially, the lines in question are preprovisioned with special 
rights and often a PIN; there are several types of service available.

You have to establish need for these services, as part of critical 
national infrastructure, life-dependent local services, military 
support, etc.

Hi group

I have a problem that is currently scrambling my noodle. Our link to our ISP
shows up as under utilized from a show interface command, most often sitting
at less than 100/255. I questioned the slow response during working hours
with one of their engineers, and his interface to us is showing at running
at greater than 200/255 at the same time that my receiving interface is
showing less than 100/255. Surely transmitter and receiver interfaces should
show the same load?

Any help and/or ideas would be appreciated.

in all versions. It's a huge file (about 25Mb) so I hope you got a good
connection.

RE: Confused about MTU size [7:54689]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

I may be way out of line, but there aren't any access lists which may be
prohibiting the IMAP ports used by exchange, are there. I ran into a config
mess with DMZ's and access lists for a beta product test once. And that was
what we saw - all worked (http, proxy, etc.) but Exchange was gone. Turned
out to be some Checkpoint and access-list tweaking.

Thanks Priscilla, I definitely don't mind even if it was criticisim
especially coming from some one of your caliber. Thank you for the pointers
and I will do some more deligant troubleshooting. And yes Mike it is outlook
that refuses to work properly. There is no problem browsing, home user is
able to copy files of all sizes with out any problems. We can ping the email
server from the user's workstation heck I am even pc-anwhered into his
machine. But as soon we start outlook it just hangs. I will further
investigate the router's config although it's using a template that's
working elsewhere under different service provider without a hitch.

Absolutely, installing SSH on a Unix box requires SSL for encryption

RE: What's next after CCNP AND CCDP [7:52611]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

The road to CCIE is long and arduous, you will absolutely need hands-on, so
if you opt not to purchase any home lab equipment you can rent remote access
to a lab from places like ccbootcamp.com, bradshawlabs.com or any of the
many others out there (sorry - no promo intended).

As far as books and topics, CCO is the best initial resource for finding a
good path. Take a look at the site to get an idea of just how long the road
to the 5 digits will be. HTH

Tell people no and put it in your security policy. They violate the policy
they get fired..

Oh wait a minute, I think that goes along with cut-off desktop internet
access I guess.

Its is a VERY effective deterrent though don't you think 

Or I guess you could also just route your home subnet ( not just your single
home IP ) to Null0.

Hi,
Here is the config of Router A and Rotuer B trying to do mobile IP between

Windows 2000 Professional client which is not responding to the mobile IP

Host A is the roaming host. R1 is the Home Agent. HostA moves to the Foreign

I am not getting any response from the win2K client though MobileIP Agent

There's no lifetime on your "ip mobile host" statement for the foreign agent
Did you verify the map with "sh ip route mobile", how about submitting
output of "sh ip mob int" to verify the advert's
(plus I'm assuming you ran the "ip mobile foreign-service" on R2)

RE: ICQ and blocking the thing-PIX [7:52285]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

Make sure that you carefully figure out the correct side of the connection.
ICQ server runs on port 4000, and the client chooses a random high-numbered
port. That means you will see UDP packets FROM (inbound/source) port 4000
going to the random port. In other words, don't go looking in a port
database trying to figure what that random, high-numbered port means. The
significant port is the source.

You can configure separate queue thresholds for committed and excess

Configure the Be (excess) ECN threshold so that it is greater than or equal

Configure the Bc ECN threshold so that it is less than or equal to 100 -

RE: It's Official - CCNP 6xx series [7:45867]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

The CCNP exams are a joke they are that easy, and if havent changed for 6xx
then I'm really disappointed in Cisco.

I guess you know a lot more than the industry that recognized these certs. I
must assume that you have your CCIE since the NP was so easy for you.

Instead of all crying, just go and sit the exam. Who cares if your
registered for 5x or 6x, you honestly thing they are different?

I sure as hell hope you aren't a teacher, or a CCSI - you need to rethink
your attitude in addressing people, like many of us in this group, that are
here to learn (notice you are subscribed to group"STUDY".com)

Is BRI and PRI different in how they are composed? No, do you Cisco will ask
you what they are composed of, be it in 5x or 6x ? Yes. Are they different?
No.

Go and sit the exam.

Just wanted to say I am NOT a paper-chaser, I was just hoping that maybe
someone with a CCDP and/or a CCIE written could tell me if the design
training helped in the CCIE or if maybe more advanced routing and switching
training for the CCIE is in order - THAT is my ultimate goal - R&S CCIE (not
for the paper but the opportunities that it will afford me).

Betas do indeed count, and if so, then you should be able to log into the
tracking syustem and see that you are indeed done. Congratulations!

Advantage can be a relative thing, and it's something that you should
probably determine on your own in respect to what you want to do with your
career.

I think following any training/certification track, if done with the intent
of increasing ones knowledge, is a beneficial thing if you truly increase
your knowledge level. Don't do it for the paper, do it for the knowledge
you'll have and the abilities you'll obtain from learning.

Good Luck!

640-605 BCRAN Beta PASSED!! [7:45777]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

I'd like to thank EVERYONE in this group. Very difficult exam! but I somehow
feel prouder having passed this monster instead of the current 640-505.The
scenarios and ideas presented here are better than anything seen in a lab
and more diverse than anything seen in my workplace.
 
I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this will count toward the
existing CCNP track if my other exams are the current standard (640-50x) in
which case I'M DONE!!!
 
Finally, if I am in fact done, can anyone tell me if it's more advantageous
to go after CCDA/P or just chase the CCIE written (before the new version of
that exam is introduced).

I took the Beta on the last day it was available and suspect that I didn't
pass it either.  It was quite a test!
Since I suspect that, I went ahead and got a free test slot at Networkers to
do the current version.  If I find out beforehand that I did pass, I'll give
up the test slot.

Thanks,

RE: Support Beta exam results [7:44853]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

I took the beta exam for the next-generation BCRAN (640-605) around Mar. 15
and still have heard anything. I was told then that it would be 8 - 12 weeks
and that the website would be the only notification. If it goes beyond 12
weeks call the exam administrator (either Prometric or Vue)

Folks

Just a quick question, I took the CCNP Beta on March 18 and am still 
awaiting the results. Does anyone have any experience of just how long I 
have to wait for the results.  I am checking the cert tracker every day and 
am starting to realize that I dont have the patience to wait for Beta exam 
results :-). Its frustrating to know that a friend who took the standard 
exam two months after me has his results :-)

Should I be concerned that I havent received my results yet?

I assume this means you took the Beta, and then also took the current
version (maybe assuming you didn't pass the Beta??) and passed that?

RE: CCNP BSCN Passed [7:44541]

[Creighton Bill-BCREIGH1]

The answer depends on your experience. I spent more time working with
Catalyst switches rather than frame-relay networks. In my OPINION the Remote
Access Exam seemed more difficult due to the large range of topics covered,
but you may already have experience in frame relay, ATM, or X.25, etc. I
think it would be more important to keep your momentum going...
