Re: CBWFQ Newbie [7:73034]
Jonathan, You meant to be the priority command on the Voice class-map, not the Data class-map. I think you want to use a variation on CBWFQ called LLQ. This uses the priority command instead of bandwidth, to assign voice traffic to a Priority Queue which will take precedence over other traffic. In other words: policy-map Customer1 class Data-Service priority 50 class Voice-Service bandwidth percent 20 Here's a link to the priority command http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios122/122cgcr/fqos_c/fqcprt2/qcfwfq.htm#1022204 and here's a link to an LLQ example: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/intsolns/qossol/qosvoip.htm#xtocid12 Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=73058t=73034 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: CBWFQ Newbie [7:73034]
Remember with CBWFQ'ing you are reserving bandwidth, but not when the Voice queue will be serviced. Voice quality does not tolerate delay or jitter. The best would be change the bandwidth command in the Voice class map to priority. This would changing the queuing on the voice stream to PQ and change the overall queuing from CBWFQ to LLQ (PQ/CBWFQ). wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi guys, Just a quick one and am sure this has been asked many times.

Re: VoIP over a pt-pt T1 with encap ppp [7:65370]
Rule of Thumb for VoIP: 1) If the link speed is T1 or better use G.711 codec which uses 64kb per call (also refer to as a voice flow). If the link speed is less than T1 use G .729 which use 8kb per call or similar codec with built in compression. 2) QoS. VoIP is successful when the delay is small and constant (Jitter). G.114 defines an acceptable one way end to end delay of 0 - 150ms. Delays as high as 400ms might be tolerated if both parties are aware of the problem. There are many factors involved in a delay budget: Processing, Serialization, and Propagation. This refers to the time it takes to digitize the voice waveform , put into a packet and transfer the packet to an interface and send the packet across the network where the packet is converted back into an close copy of the original analog waveform. As you can see VoIP dictates small packets with a little delay as possible and that the packets arrive in a steady, constant flow. Which brings up Jitter. Jitter is when the delay is not constant. The conversation becomes choppy because the voice packets arrive at a different spacing than they were spoken by the sender. Voice packets are best effort and never retransmit a packet. 3) Packet size. Data likes large packets, is more tolerant of delays and jitter, but all packets must be received. Dropping packets leads to data corruption, so retransmitting packets are allowed. To minimized delay and reduce Jitter, change the MTU to allow voice to flow and not get stuck behind large data packets. David L.

Re: CCNP v3.0 [7:37500]
Yes, all Cisco beta tests are three hours or more long. The reason is in a beta test you are asked around 150 questions whereas a production test is around 60 questions. Almost every test vendor does the same for their beta tests. You are asked more questions to validate the questions. Vendors want to develop a test that can be passed. The beta process is their means for determining which test questions will be used in the production test pool of questions. In turn, the test vendor makes the test available at a reduced cost or free in some cases. Through Complexity there is Simplicity, Through Simplicity there is Complexity David L.

Re: Re: Sample Rate [7:36566]
John Neiberger wrote: What I'm trying to find out is why the original 4KHz limit on voice calls was put into place. It sounds like it was simply an arbitrary decision. 4KHz is sufficient for a telephone call and to provide clear calls that included higher frequencies might have added some technical complexities, perhaps. They also added a high-pass filter around 400Hz since most telephones can't reproduce low frequencies well and it also filters out some harmonics of 50-60Hz hum that might show up from time to time. That is concrete reason for including a high-pass filter and I wondered if there was a concrete technical reason for including the 4KHz low-pass filter. From the sounds of it there really isn't a technical issue, 4K is just a nice round number. :-) I used three sources to answer John's query: Voice over IP Fundamentals, Cisco Voice over Frame Relay, ATM, and IP, and Integrating Voice and Data Networks. These are great books for anyone wanting to know more about voice technologies. Interesting Facts and Ideas I came across: 1) Human hearing is in the range of 200 Hz to 20,000 Hz 2) Human speech is in the range of 250 Hz to 10,000 Hz. Most of the information comes from the middle frequencies. According to Nyquist, Human voice contains sounds that are more often Middle-pitched frequencies than either High or Low pitched frequencies. 3) Frequencies greater than 4,000 Hz are filter out to limit crosstalk. 4) During the Analog to Digital conversion voice samples are put though a process called Quantization. Quantization is the process of rounding sampled values to the nearest predefined discreet value. Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) is a Quantization process. PCM is also used to achieve 12 to 13 bits of voice information in 8 bit words. Two commonly used PCM's are: mu-law (North America), and a-law (Europe). What you hear is not someone's voice, but a representation of their voice. 5) Noise is a major issue when talking about voice quality. Noise is constant problem for Analog signals. What is signal and what is Noise? When a Analog signal is amplified so is the Noise, which in turn makes the quality of Analog calls worst as the distance increases. Digital Calls are less suitable to Noise than Analog calls. 6) Delay is a major issue when talking about conversation flow for two reasons: 1) For a conversation to flow normally, the delay is receiving the voice information must be less than 250ms. When the delay is more than 250ms, the human receiving the voice message will start to talk thinking the human sending the voice message is at a breaking point in the conversation, i.e.. both people are talking at the same time similar to a collision in Ethernet. Delay is also important in how the voice packets are filled during the Analog to Digital conversion. That is why ATM (ATM cell is 53 octets, 5 octets are header and 48 octets are payload) is a good method for transporting voice packets because the delay to fill the payload section is smaller than with other cell/packet types. Answer: It does indeed seem that the 4,000 Hz mark was arbitrary in nature; 3,500 Hz or 5,000 Hz would work also. It is a nice round number to work with. Simplies any math work. Middle frequencies carry the bulk of the information and Human speech upper limit is 10,000 Hz amd 4,000 is near the middle. The low filter is also to reduce the frequencies that carry less information. Hope this helps. Through Complexity there is Simplicity, Through Simplicity there is Complexity David L.

Hi Priscilla, Questions like which answer doesnt not belong means what??? Is Cisco implying that the double negative means positive as we were taught years ago in algebra class or it should be ignored and taken for one negative. Am currently taking my CSS1 track, I wrote Cisco Secure VPN yesterday which happens to be the third exam in the series. I came accross a lot questions which made no sense at all. Looking at the question, it was not a question at all. it was not asking any particular thing, it had no meaning, no bearing, no sense in it, they are just like saying blablablablablablablabla. The more I read them the more I get confused and lost at what Cisco was tring to ask. Have you come accross questions that made you think 'What must be in the mind of the examiner when he was asking this question, which aspect of Network or Security implementation was he thinking of? What I normally do is to completely ignore the questions and eliminate the odd options in the answer, at the end of the day in many questions like these, I come out with NOT THE BEST ANSWER as they use to tell one, but rather a choice that made a different SENSE and MEANING than the other three or four. I sometimes ask whether the current Cisco questions were not originally written in English but were translated from another language and as such the transators did not do a good job or is it a deliberate action on the part of Cisco? If it were the former it is long time they take a closer look at it and if it is the later, what must have informed their actions? Regards.

I started using the latest version of the CID exam prep from cisco press but Exam prep guides are written with the goal of summarizing what you need to know. They are not the course materials, but go beyond in some ways, and may also skip some basic stuff. They can be great for review, but don't work for everyone as the primary source. found the earlier version of the book written by birkner a better source. This wasn't an earlier version of the same book. It's a different book. This was the course materials ported to book format. The author should be Cisco (course developers) although in this case Birkner didn't exactly follow the script and added his own material and left some out. In general, Cisco Press develops at least two types of books: Certification guides: not written by Cisco, but still often very helpful Course book: training written by Cisco, ported to book format by an editor paid by Cisco Press, usually an excellent resource as the tests are taken from the course. A question came up about the different types of Cisco Press books in a different thread, so I responded here. (My other response never made it?) Anyway, congratulations on passing CID!

Re: 2 exams [7:19695]
Of the four CCNP tests, I had the easiest time with the CIT test. Score: 875. Good but not great. If you have been troubleshooting computer and/or router problems for a couple of years or more and of course have put in study time that test should not be to much of a problem. If you have the resources, read over the CiscoPress CIT Certification Guide especially the Foundation Summary for each chapter. Also, look at the CiscoPress CIT book, ExamCram CIT, BrainBuzz CIT StudyGuide, and Boson CIT test #1. Ditto for BCRAN on the reading. For the BCRAN test. Score: 775 Luck to have passed. I really did not like the format is this test. I had 25-30 questions where you picked from an exhibit the command the question was asking for and then had to type in the command which was bad for me since I studied more on theory than actual command structure. This way of testing also slow me down. I had to ensure that I had the correct command and that I correctly typed into the field provided. The level is questions were not as difficult as Routing.

Re: Real BSCI Exam Questions! [7:17905]
It is a beta test which means some of the questions you failed or passed will not show up on the production test. I am guessing if you passed a question that did not make into the production test question pool, Cisco gave you credit. On the other hand, if you failed a question that Cisco decided not to use in the production test pool. I am fairly positive that Cisco did not count that against you. Your raw section average is 67.75%. Cisco might be assignment different points to questions. In that case, percentage of right vs. wrong has less meaning. If you passed higher value questions and missed mainly lower value questions, you could have a low percentage and still pass.

Re: Can you pass CCNP w/o having Cisco gears? [7:18107]
During the time from when I took my CCNA, 02/2000, and passed my first CCNP test around 02/28/2001 and finished my CCNP on 06/27/2001. I rarely had to support routers at work. If I had a issue that involved routers, I call the group that oversaw the routers. We worked the problem together put I never was allowed to login to a router or used a console connection to the router. Disclaimer: I have three routers at home, but I mainly used them to verify command usage, like which router mode was required for various commands. I have extremely little Catalyst experience. I have had jobs in the past where I did directly support routers. Also, I test well. Now to answer your question. Yes, with the books, (CiscoPress and Sybex) and study guides, (ExamCram and CramSession from Brainbuzz) that are available and various companies that provide sample tests, (CiscoPress, Boson). A person of reasonable ability and intelligence could pass the CCNA, CCDA, CCNP, and CCDP without ever seeing, touching, or otherwise using ANY Cisco product whatsoever. I also do not recommend this course of action lessens the Cisco certification process. My current job, I am the Network Manager.

The Master's degree would help especially in E-Commerce, Business Administration, and Project Management. My question is: Is it worth taking the CCNA vice Masters degree? Or vice versa?

Re: Cisco Certifications still worth anything? [7:10599]
With the death (or extended delay) of CCIE Design, I think that the CCDP is sufficiently different that it can/should be used alongside of CCIE. CCNP on the otherhand flows directly into CCIE RS. I, basically, agree with Kevin except for this. You are required to be a MCP before a MCSE. Same goes for CBS before CBE and CNA before CNE. Now with Cisco all bets are off. The CCNA/P or CCDA/P are mutually independent from the CCIE (any flavor). It is redundant, but I feel if you went to the trouble and expense why not put ALL your Cisco certifications. Say someone was a CCIE RS, CCNA, CCNP, CCDA, CCDP, MCSE, CNE, and Checkpoint CCSA. On a business card, all of that will not fit and look right. For example, I would use: David L. Blair, CCIE, MCSE, CNE, CCSA. The TOP certification from each certification area. On the resume I would list them all. When I get my CCIE I plan to list all my certifications or least as many that will fit on one line of a business card. The number of certifications is also measure of where you have been and your tenure in the business. -- Through Complexity there is Simplicity, Through Simplicity there is Complexity David L.

Re: Book Recommendations [7:10201]
I am currently studying for my CCNP, and should have it knocked off in a couple of months. For study material so far, I have pretty much just been using the Cisco Press study guides and CCO. I just got my CCNP yesterday. I used three or four books per test: CiscoPress 1) Courseware Book, i.e. Cisco Internetworkign Troubleshooting; 2) CCNP Support Exam Vertification Guide; ExamCram 3) CCNP Support; and Sybex 4) Support by Todd Lammle and et al. A lot of money, but now these bboks are my reference library for my CCIE studies. Through Complexity there is Simplicity, Through Simplicity there is Complexity David L. Blair - CCNP, CCNA, MCSE, CBE, A+, 3Wizard I am just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for good books, especially involving routing protocols such as OSPF/BGP/EIGRP, for someone at the CCNP level looking towards gaining enough knowledge for the CCIE written and eventually CCIE lab (gulp). I am after not just a study guide, but for more detailed info - not targetted at a specific exam but more to increase the detail of my knowledge in these areas. A couple that I am looking at (that you guys have talked about in this list): -Routing tcp/ip vol 2 by Cisco Press -Top down network design by Priscilla It would be great if you could make some suggestions as to what good books you have found.

Re: CIT Exam is very tough [7:9270]
I only use two practice test programs whatever comes with the CiscoPress Certification Guides and BOSON. Personally, of the three CCNP tests I have taken so far here is how I rank them, Routing, CIT, Switching. Routing, for me, was by far the hardest test. All during the test I was watching the clock and barely finished in time and thought not that I was going to pass, but just exactly how badly I was going to fail! Score 850. Not bad, but could definitely be better. I took Switching three weeks later. Finished in half the allotted time and only worried a couples of times about not passing. Score 835. I then took a break and took the CIT test last week. A little harder than Switching, but not by much. I thought I would pass and only started worrying when I got a series of ISDN questions. Score 885. My best to date. Individual results vary. I found the CIT the most familiar since I have been troubleshooting computer or electronic problems since 1981. Most of the test just seemed to make sense, if you know how to troubleshoot. -- Through Complexity there is Simplicity, Through Simplicity there is Complexity David L.

To give you an idea of where I'm coming from, I'm a ccnp, so I have that level of experience with ISDN. I thought I know ISDN, but I learned a lot about dialback, how to prevent different routing protocols from keeping a ddr up, and troubleshooting ISDN problems. There were a lot of find the problem configurations, and a whole bunch of troubleshooting. I got at least as much from this as I did from any of the $70 books I've been buying at a rate of two a week, and I feel like I got more from this since it's interactive (my mind works that way).

Re: passed BCMSN
In electrical terms, leakage can refer to a Capacitor leaking DC voltage instead of blocking it. There other electrical references to signal leakage. So it is my guess that whomever coined the phrase "frame leakage" was familiar with one of the those other electrical references about signal leakage and applied it to the data world. As previously mentioned, "frame leakage" is when frames belonging to VLAN A incorrectly appear in VLAN B. This occurs when you have VLAN trunking turned on and a configuration error or possible a hardware problem with the multi-layer switch. -dlb ""Gopinath Pulyankote"" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 9aalds$noe$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:9aalds$noe$[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
