RE: Does access list work for router originated packets [7:17359]

2001-08-26 Thread Dan Faulk

Since ping uses returning packets to work its those that are being blocked.
Use a sniffer to see the process.

Hi

I can't believe I am challenging Priscilla!

I just tried what you are talking about, i.e. that the ACL on the router
does not effect the traffic generated by the router it's self.

I created an extended ACL to block all ICMP traffic and applied it to E0 as
both IN and OUT. Before appling the ACL I can ping just fine to any host on
the network and any host on the network can ping the router. After Appling
the ACL I am not able to ping from the router, or to the router.

I am running 11.1 IOS, maybe it would yield different results with a
different IOS version. What IOS and platform did you see this behavior?

Here's my config.

Re: CCIE Lab Setup [7:17399]

2001-08-27 Thread Dan Faulk

One way to save a good sum of money is to have the telco pull you a
2B1D(Bri) ISDN line and use one B channel per router. Does everthing except
multilink (and that can be done with a willing partner) and costs a lot less
than a simulator (most Ive seen run $1500-2500 compared to about $300 in
telco charges). Might want to do this towards the end to keep costs down and
cancel the service when finished. Anybody know a different way would be
great to hear it.

Are you running any routing protocols over this T1 link?
Even if the port doesnt fail the routing protocol would lose the neighbor
and promote the ISDN route. You dont mention how time critical this is but
surely hello/dead times could be adjusted for this. IMHO

Dan,

That's a great way to do ISDN.  It definitely is initially cheaper than
using an ISDN sim.  On the other hand, you may have to wait 2 months before
the telco will install the line.  Some telco's charge big $$ to install and
activate an ISDN line.  You also need to take into account the monthly
charge and all of the friendly taxes that are applied to your ISDN monthly
bill.  If you can afford the upfront $$, I'd recommend purchasing an ISDN
sim.  It also can come in handy if you work with other engineers and want to
combine equipment at times.  You are not limited by location.  The prices in
ISDN sims have substantially dropped.  Groupstudy members can get them for
$1300/pc.  Hopefully Paul will be putting the information up on his web page
under the Discounts section shortly.  Until then, feel free to contact me
for information.

Well, John Chambers is the CEO of Cisco Systems so I don't think he's
at all bothered about the career of this "Tom Chambers" you mention.

Speaking of John Chambers - I expect he's quite happy at the moment.
Since Cisco announced a restructure program (the details of which
elude me) the share price has risen slightly and the long term
outlook is better. I hope they do manage to turn it around because
Cisco are often seen as the yard arm as far as telecomms prospects go
and that's my business too! I kinda like my job so good luck to them.

Anyway, apart from being out of date and incorrect, it's quite a
funny story. ;)

RE: Can you pass CCNP w/o having Cisco gears? [7:18124]

2001-08-31 Thread Dan Faulk

Having recently just passed CCNP this year I will say you must have a
Router.
The reason is that the prescribed rituals must be performed in front of the
Router.
Without a Router the powerful spirit of routing, BGPOSPF, wont bless your
efforts and even if you do pass all knowledge will be removed from you
within 2 months. Some have said scrificing your most valuable possesion
before the router helps. I give it my time which seemed to work well. Others
have given the Router spirit money, bought it accessories, even food but so
far time works best.
Hope this helps and smile cause TGIF!!

I also agree that they will not put PIX in the exam . i think that rack

RE: Can you pass CCNP w/o having Cisco gears? [7:18310]

2001-09-03 Thread Dan Faulk

Look I know given enough of a mind you can do anything from books.
The real question is what have you got when you do pass it?
Not much, the knowledge wont stick, the brain doesn't work that way. Reading
a book on driving a car may give you the answers to the test but it wont
make you a good driver. Long term memory is action and emotion driven thats
why its hard forget that night you finally get a complicated BGP scenario to
work on your router lab, or fight though the problems at 2 AM of getting
that new RSM to work, and will never ever forget driving an hour in the snow
to fix a problem someone else caused on a clients network because they
didn't know what they were doing, yeah they thought they could slide by.
Is practical experience enough? No you need a lab either at work, home, or
with a group cause some things just have to be done to be understood. To be
the best is the only "exam" any of us should be interested in passing. So
can you pass the test without a lab? Depends on which "test" you are really
trying to pass.

Good luck
Dan

The answer is Yes, you can be a paper CCNP.

I just turned CCNP last week and I have never touched a router before.  Have
never logged into a router, not used any router simulator software.  (Yes I
know how a router looked like from the pictures I've seen.)  Neither did i
cheat by using brain dumps.

All the information for passing the exams only came from the 4 Sybex books
(routing, switching, support, RA)  Not trying to be proud here, but a paper
CCNP is possible.

Will take my written CCIE soon.  As for the lab exam, hmm... we shall see...

second router?

I have 2 Cisco 2503's with st Bri. Im using Motorola NT1 device with a
single U interface and 2 ST ports. I have at my disposal a single ISDN line
from SW Bell. I would like to split the spids at the nt1 device and practice
my DDR with only one spid on each router.

If this is possible, please forward any info you might have on exactly how
to do this? Thanks in advance.

To bring this home a bit I had interviewed with a firm early last month that
was looking for someone with a broad base in technology. It was the kind of
job a lifetime techie dreams about, high profile, state of the art toys,
great pay, a real step up. But they didnt feel they needed to pay relocation
expenses and I couldnt foot the bill myself. Really great location to work
too, The World Trade Center. Not disapinted any longer...
What ever happens the rest of my life I will not complain.

RE: RANT Longish, Why Cisco and not ...!!! [7:19933]

2001-09-15 Thread Dan Faulk

All this is very educational and almost useless to the task at hand. Many of
us are here to prepare ourselves for the toughest test we've ever taken
outside of marriage (I aint kidding folks), and have chosen this path for
several good reasons. None of which are related to the sour grapes between
Cisco and Nortel, which BTW are no different than those between Microsoft
and IBM of several years ago.

If Nortel is sponsoring an industry certification with near the widespread
esteem of Cisco's CCIE please by all means tell us what we are missing. I
can put together a Nortel lab much cheaper than a Cisco one and am all
ears.

This industry has been in constant flux since day 0 and all the claims of
mine is bigger than yours doesn't matter one wit. Personally I think Nortel
makes a good product though not as good as Cisco's overall but that's IMHO.
If they have a lead in a up and coming market segment good for them, they
need it. But don't fool yourselves it wont last never has, never will and
Cisco in particular I'm sure keeps that in mind. Sorry for the OT its been a
long week and it aint over yet as now I got to "try" and find a flight to
Houston.

Chuck & group;

So, all this is understood about certs & why, etc...; and anyone who has
participated in this list for any length of time has seen the same ground
covered as Chuck covered below. I've been following this list and
participating as time permitted since about June 1999. So I know the deal.

I will continue to seek Cisco certifications for two primary reasons:

1. I may need those credentials if I find myself back out in the larger job
market in the future. Especially as a consultant called on both to evaluate
existing networks and propose changes or upgrades be they piecemeal or
forklifted, but also to write, respond to and review responses to RFPs &
RFIs. All this with a view toward providing my client with an end result
that best meets their needs. Regardless of what the vendors are pushing.

2. It enhances my credibility in my current role as a Nortel SE with
customers when I need to critique Cisco's designs and or proposals, and my
ability to understand what they may propose, and why.

So there is more to this than knowing commands, though that may be critical
if one wants to stay strictly "hands on". There is much more to this
business, however; and I think studying the merits and weaknesses of
different vendors' gear helps to round us all out, and to provide solutions
to problems. Not just the Cisco way, or the Nortel way, or any one vendor's
way. But the way that provides the greatest value to our clients and
corporations.

If we work for Cisco, or Nortel, or any vendor; it gives us an opportunity
to understand our strengths and weaknesses and to provide feedback to the
people who develop products to make them better.

There is always room on this list for people who want to know how to solve a
work related problem, or to express political opinions as has been done this
past week. I think if people don't want to engage in this type of discussion
they should use the Delete Key, not the "this is a Cisco List" crutch;
thereby discouraging honest and constructive dialog. If you don't like it
don't participate, but don't keep other people from learning something.

There have also been occasions when people have asked for help interfacing
Nortel and Cisco gear when I have been happy to help and will certainly
continue to do so. No matter how misunderstood the gear or my intentions may
be.

But again, the only reason I gave the URL for the Nortel cert, was because
Dan Faulk asked for it. Not that he expected there was any possible answer
of any merit, or that he took a look. But maybe someone else did, and maybe
it will help them to advance their career.

Learning is the progressive discovery of our own ignorance.

That doesn't mean we want to find out how ignorant we are.

But it may mean that we need to.



Go in peace...and keep your head down.

RE: seraching for tacacs server [7:20872]

2001-09-25 Thread Dan Faulk

OK let me see if I can say this without being my usual old rude self. Having
been in IT longer than I care to admit and knowing that what you say is in
many ways correct lets put this in perspective. How can one compare an
expert on a relatively specialized product line, Juniper, to one as all
encompassing as Cisco's? We all have X amount of time to devote to the
learning experience either in a lab, work, or books and I don't think its
possible to become a Cisco "expert" due to the incredible range of products
and markets involved. Cut that product range down to say strictly one or two
markets and then a person has a chance to branch out. Personally I love
working with Solaris and W2K and have been doing so since...well a long time
ago, but to do so means I have less time to spend on IOS.

Mike,

you are correct about the recent trend on Network Engineering in general
and Cisco Engineer in particular.  These recent CCIEs know nothing
else but Cisco (not that they are expert to begin with).  Most don't even
know how to write simple shell script on Unix platforms.  If this sound
like I am bashing Cisco Engineers, I am not but it is just the fact.  It
just repeats over and over again.

On the other hand, I have to say that almost every Juniper Network
Certified Internet Expert (JNCIE) engineers that I've met so far not only
an expert with Cisco Technolog but these guys can also program (mostly
with PERL and shell) in addition to Juniper products (M-series routers).
These guys are just a different breed of animals, in a class by
themselves.  I guess it must be because JUNOS are pretty Unix-oriented.

AGS+ IOS 11 bridging [7:21515]

2001-09-30 Thread Dan Faulk

Anyone out there done much with bridging serial ports on the AGS?
The Cisco documentation says different things on the subject one source says
concurrent bridging wont work on this box others make little distinction. I
wish to bridge on the 8 serial ports and route on the 12 Ethernet ports.
Encap on the serials is not important although I will be passing IP. Cant
just try and see on this one as it will determine which cables I purchase
for my lab and money is tight.

Boy, haven't worked on an AGS in 6 years!!!  If CRB is simply a

may well be hardware limitions on the AGS, like the inability to do ISL
encapsulation on a CAT4000.

The only other way that I know of to avoid crashing the router, and getting
a
useful "sniff" of the WAN traffic, is to use a V.35 protocol analyzer, such
as the HP Internet Advisor.  This is a pricey unit, but if you do this stuff
regularly (as my coworkers and I do), it is the easiest, and most
presentable
way to do this.  Note: There is a short disruption of service while
inserting
and removing the V.35 Y-cable used to do this.

Internet Advisor generates some very management-friendly reports, used to
present findings to people of a slightly more non-technical background.  It
also has many VERY powerful features (think: SnifferPro-like GUI).

I am sure there are other very similiar products out in the field, I am only
explaining what I have used.  At the present time, this is only the HP
Internet Advisor.

RE: Ask for suggestions about network security career [7:23816]

2001-10-22 Thread Dan Faulk

Would be interested in this subject as well. I'm at that point where I could
go either way and have concentrated on subjects common to both CCIE R/S and
CCIE Security but must commit to one path soon as it may well be I only get
one shot at getting this right(for once). Security is pulling a lot of press
attention but don't see the corresponding interest in the job market and
what I see reflects a a lack of value of the skills(IMHO), course days are
lean now and the current situation is volatile so we are looking into the
future. R/S is more "fun" and perhaps more flexible but then we are in this
for the money in the end. I know it would be great to do both but there are
limits on my time and my worn out brain cells. Some help gurus? Fortune
tellers? Ms Cleo? Wild as* guesses? All correct answers will receive a
lifetime supply of bragging rights.

Just got CCNP last week. Not sure what to do next. I more interested in

If I really want join in computer/network security fild as my career, what's

>From what I have read the differences are in that no "Desktop" protocols are
tested in the CCIE Security. Strictly IP from what I can tell which in
itself is attractive since in 14 years thats all Ive seen on the job. All I
wish to see for that matter, since cant see anyone starting up a new house
on anything else. There are other differences according to the Blueprint not
to mention the possible depth of tested subjects, I was looking for some
input from those that are kind enough to share insight from the actual labs,
without violating the NDA of course. Of course from those who feel they have
some insight on future direction of the biz.
Stop me if Im wrong but dont think anyone is suggesting that there are 1700
lab testing slots even avilible in any month, as for the written tests
who cares? They just help keep things serious.

I'm looking at this issue from the non-CCIE-of-any-sort-as-yet perspective,
but doesn't the security CCIE require all of the knowledge of a R/S CCIE,
plus the security components?  And if so, why not get the R/S CCIE first and
then work on the security CCIE?  In this way, you could blow right past the
1700 CCIE per month thread posted here recently with the vaunted
double-CCIE.  Worn out brain cells or not, don't you have to have the
knowledge of a Routing & Switching CCIE to be prepared for the Security
CCIE?  My two cents' worth.

Thanks to those who provided info and links on and "off the list" it really
helped. Seems the biggest drawback to the Security route is money. Without
corp sponsorship there is no way I can touch the price of the equipment and
training needed to become CCIE level proficient in this field. So looks like
both are the way to go after all with R/S first (ego check..I hope I can do
it) which is really what I wanted in the first place...just never ends does
it folks...
Thanks

Great point Chuck, this current downturn is not near what we went though in
the late 70's early 80's or back in 90. Apply Chucks advice, build your
skills while this current market continues cause it will get better.
Personally Im excited about this, a lot of corp deadwood is being trimmed
and what survives will be much stronger. As for Juniper, nice idea but not
very possible without a ton of capital. Besides there are more important
things out there to worry about than certs right now. Keep a good outlook

2001-10-27 Thread Dan Faulk

The business cycle demands downturns. They perform the needed function of
ridding the economy of businesses that are poorly run or poorly placed in
the market. Now to be honest I could have done without this "Widespread"
downturn that's hitting so many sectors at once but its here so might as
well see the silver lining. Of course we could have done completely without
the reason for this current state of affairs but again nothing I can do
about it so may as well do our best in the meantime. Things are going to
change a lot in the coming months best get ready for whatever may happen but
I prefer a good attitude during it all. If you or anyone else wishes to drop
the idea of becoming a CCIE that's ok with me too for obvious reasons.

RE: What do you cats do for motivation? [7:24549]

2001-10-29 Thread Dan Faulk

Good question been mulling it over since 9-11-01. It really hasnt been easy
to be honest, but I am ajusting and moving on now. CCIE is a break from the
rest of the certs out there, you must really want to do this the rest of
your life. Sounds simplistic Im sure but I'm in it for the money only to a
certain point after that its just sheer enjoyment. Lots of ways to make
money out there, not so many to do what you really enjoy. When I got into
this field no one called you a geek they just looked at you with awe,
wonder, and a strange puzzled look on their faces but then I'm 6 foot+,
225lbs, ex-football player type. Ahh for the good ole days...

ready, and soo man labs that I want to do.  The light at the end of the
tunnel isn't even close to being visable and it's tough. Can anyone help?

btw, anyone used any audio tapes/cd's to listen to cisco type stuff during
the commute to work? I was thinking about doing something like that but I
think hearing my own voice speak would be enough to drive me insane. Any
thoughtS?

Wan Bridging and STP Problem [7:25044]

2001-11-02 Thread Dan Faulk

Have an idea to solve a problem at work and would like to see if any of you
see a problem with this rather simplistic solution. No routing can occur due
to the nature of the traffic. T1s between the 1720s which are configured "no
ip routing" and to bridge the traffic from E0 to S0, 1720 a and b to have a
higher priority assigned for STP as that is the normally desired path to the
remote location. Was going to use HSRP but don't think that works when no ip
routing is configured and that protocol leaves something to be desired when
dealing with wans. Ideas?

RE: Wan Bridging and STP Problem [7:25044]

2001-11-02 Thread Dan Faulk

Thanks for your input.
What it boils down to is this, can BPDUs traverse a T1?
If so then then a spanning tree forms from one end to another and it does
what I need, if not will have to find another way. This all has to be
handled at level 2, the traffic flow consists of frames and multicasts, no
packets. no network addressing. It's a propritary industrial application
protocol developed back in the mid 1980's that was designed to work only at
the frame level. Kinda sucks I know but it pays very well. Cant complain in
this economy...

Just because the traffic can't be routed doesn't mean the network can't be.
Give this a thought:

1) Create a loopback interface on each router and assign IP addresses to the
loopbacks.
2) Give the serial interfaces on the routers IP addresses as well.
3) Build a tunnel using the loopbacks as endpoints
4) Put the tunnel and the ethernet interfaces in the same bridge-group
5) Use floating statics to move the traffic across your preferred link
unless the link goes down.

This is a pretty generic solution. There may be something better depending
on your situation...more details?
