Re: AppleTalk on Support exam [7:269]

2001-04-13 Thread Don Pezet

Priscilla,

I took the CIT test on Wednesday. There were about three AppleTalk
questions. Mainly, which debug commands to issue to monitor different
AppleTalk zone registrations and what not. I wouldn't sweat it too much.

CCIE R&S Lab Locations [7:46904]

2002-06-18 Thread Don Pezet

Quick question for everyone. In which cities is the CCIE Routing and
Switching Lab exam offered? I have heard various stories from different
places and the only official city that I can find on cisco.com is San Jose.
Is the exam proctored in RTP, North Carolina also?
 
Thanks
 
Don Pezet

Interesting terminal server issue [7:48247]

2002-07-06 Thread Don Pezet

Hey guys,
 
 I have a home lab setup for my CCIE studies and I have been bumping
into a random issue with my terminal server. I have a 2509 that I use with
an Octal cable to connect to my routers and switches. Frequently I will see
a line go hot without me having initiated a session (I see an asterick by
the line in 'show lines'). If I clear the line using 'clear line x' and then
open a session to that device I will get about a hundered lines of trash
thrown to the end device as input. Once the trash scrolls by and errors out,
I have regular prompt access to the router with no further issues. This is
not an all the time thing, but it is fairly frequent.
 
 Here's my setup on the terminal server:
 
ip host r1 2001 1.1.1.1
ip host r2 2002 1.1.1.1
ip host r3 2003 1.1.1.1
ip host r4 2004 1.1.1.1
ip host s1 2005 1.1.1.1
ip host s2 2006 1.1.1.1
!
interface Loopback0
 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.0.0.0
!
line 1 8
 transport input all
 
 And here's the config for one of my end routers:
 
line con 0
 transport input none
 
I'm using an authentic Cisco octal cable that appears to be shielded and
since the garbage only occurs randomly and at initial connection I have
ruled out interference.
 
Any help is appreciated
 
Thanks,
 
Don

DHCP Server on Multiple VLANs [7:49403]

2002-07-22 Thread Don Pezet

Hey guys,

 I have a Cisco 3620 connected to a 2948G-L3 which
in turn provides layer three services to a cluster of
3548XLs. I have 9 operating VLANs and have been trying
to work out a scenario for DHCP in my environment.
Right now, we assign static IPs in all 9 vlans because
we do not want to provide seperate DHCP servers for
each. If we could find a way to get one server to
provide DHCP to all the VLANs then we could implement
it. The trick is, each VLAN is a different subnet. 

 I had heard that if you use the 3620 as a DHCP
server, create subinterfaces on a FE port using ISL and
assign IP addresses appropriately, and create multiple
DHCP pools, then the router would issues IPs from pools
that matched the interface it drew the request from.
However, when I try this it just issues IPs from the
first pool until it is full and then moves to the next. 

 Is there a way to make sure the router assigns
correct IPs on the correct sub-interfaces? Is there a
3rd party DHCP server that would do this better?

 Let me do a sample config to show what I tried.
Each network has a network printer at .200 (don't ask)
and a router sub-interface at .1 except the 10.10.10.0
network which has reserved IPs through 100, but still a
router interface at .1

Here's the Cisco 3620 DHCP portion of the config:
!

The only interface on the 2948G-L3 that should be receiving any
STP updates would be G49 and its subinterfaces, as that is the ISL trunk
to the 3548XL stack. I see a few scattered updates probably from routing
STP maintenance or from power outages over the weekend (the UPSs tapped
out at different intervals, always nice) but nothing unusual. Certainly
not enough to mirror the connection loss interval of the workstations. 

Anyhow, so I started thinking along the lines as Cisco_Maniac
about enabling portfast and just seeing what happens, but the 2948G-L3
uses a Router's IOS and so it doesn't support portfast as far as I can
tell. Anyone familiar, off hand, with how to do portfast on the
2948G-L3? CCO was unhelpful (or more likely my searching abilities). 

On the performance issue, I'll be running bandwidth tests
between stations on separate VLANs today to see exactlly what throughput
I am able to get while being routed by the 2948G-L3 today. If it is
actually performing worse than the 3620 when it was bottle necking I may
just move the network back to the old configurations. We'll see what
happens and I'll post the results.

RE: Interesting Situation with a 2948G-L3 and Inter-VLAN [7:51249]

2002-08-12 Thread Don Pezet

I ran a bandwidth monitor between six stations on one VLAN and
six stations on a second VLAN to see what kind of latency, packet loss,
and throughput I could get on the stations. I found I could easily get
six separate communication streams going with each absorbing 25Mbits of
bandwidth which would have more than saturated the 3620 so I am
definitely seeing performance improvements over the old configuration.
Now it's just a matter of tracking down my dropped link issue.
