The RFC would be a great place to check :)

RIPv2 uses 224.0.0.9  RFC 2453

IGRP is Cisco's baby.   I'd search cisco.com

RE: OSPF area 0 [7:45995]

2002-06-07 Thread Dusty Harper

The network doesn't totally hose.  Basically you get a second backbone.
This leads to basically two different networks.  In the example you
provided, The backbone is still contiguous

An example or where this might occur would be


__
  Area |  |---
 --|__|C
 B   |
   A | Area 0
_| __
   |  |   |  |Area 2
   |__|---|__|--
DE


If the connectivity on link A went down, Area 0 then becomes divided,
creating 2 separate networks
1) consists of subnet B, C, and possibly A
2) consists of D, E and possibly A

possibly A is determined by what broke the connectivity.

OSPF still functions, it just changes its behavior to accommodate the
new topology.

If I remember correctly, yes, Area 0 routers must always have a way to
connect to each other.  It does not have to be a full mesh (if that is
what you mean by contiguous).  Three routers in a mesh would be fine if
one link broke.

Now, if an area 0 router loses all connectivity to the other Area 0s (in
your case, isolate one point of the triangle by losing TWO links), then
your network gets borked.  You will need a virtual link (if at all
possible), or... well... your network is broken?  :)

 Hi group,
 
 
 
 Is there any condition that OSPF area 0 must be contiguous?.
 
 I remembered read this some where on CCO. Is this true?. For a 
 situation, three ospf routers connected in a triangle shape, what if 
 one of the link goes down?.
 
 Any one experienced on this situation, please show me some documents 
 related to this?.
 
 
 
 Thanks in advance,
 
 J.

The first one is simple if you relate it to public key sharing in

security.

Place the diamond in the box. Secure the box with your lock.  Send it to
your friend.  So far, it's safe from the courier.  When your friend
receives
the box, she secures the box with her lock and sends it back to you.
Still
safe.  You remove your lock and send it back to her.  Still safe.  She
removes her lock and retrieves the diamond.  All of this is done without
the
use of relatively prime numbers.  ;o)

Part A:  I heard this one where the friend also has a key that will open

his lock, but not yours.  Also, the condition is that no destructive 
techniques are allowed, so breaking or cutting wasn't a possible
solution.

Part B:
He never states that the rope is attached to the top of the pole, just
that 
it's attached to the pole.  So, the answer is that the poles are
somewhere 
between 0 and 32 feet apart.

If you configure the area as stub no-summary, then the summary

internal area routes, and can access everything else via the default

RE: OSPF DR problem [7:34379]

2002-02-05 Thread Dusty Harper

I'm not going to argue with Chuck whether it's valid or not valid to
split areas (because yes Chuck is correct, it is valid).  From a network
design perspective, it's bad enough for the use of a Virtual Link, but
splitting the Areas is totally unnecessary.

A colleague of mine has the term Network Masturbation for designs like
these.  

Basically by breaking the KISS principle (Keep It Simple Stupid) you are
just begging for trouble.

Just by taking a look at the network layout as it is, my suggestion was
to change the Frame Relay Area 1 to a different Area (Area 3).  This
still allowed for the test of the Virtual Link, and constituted a better
designed network.  What you didn't see were my direct responses to
Priscilla referring to examining the different topological databases to
see exactly where these links were and whether the next logical phase of
an LSA was being performed. (LSA Types 1 and 2 shows the link in Area 0,
are LSA type 3's getting sent into Area 1 and 2 with the information...)

(to save myself some typing, the discussion is centered on areas as
being
different colors, all meeting up with the edge of the backbone)

...When the AS topology changes, one of the areas may become
partitioned. 
The graph of the AS will then have multiple regions of the same color
(area
ID). The routing in the Autonomous System will continue to function as
long
as these regions of the same color are connected by the single backbone
region.

 
 When I did a show ip route on R9 and R8 I thought I would see
 the
 Ethernet LAN in Area 0. That was not a logical expectation? I
 should just
 see a default route on ABRs?
 

Unless configured as stub areas (which would preclude using them as
transit
areas), I would think you should see the topology of the backbone. 
Unfortunately, the RFC only addresses virtual links as a means to repair
a
partitioned backbone.  It does not address providing bacbone
connectivity to
a non-backbone area.  Nor does the RFC discuss demand circuits, which,
of
course, is a Cisco implementation.  So there may very well be a
gottcha in
there that simply isn't addressed in the official OSPF documentation.
I
guess the answer will most likely be revealed when you revisit the
remote
lab and do some magic with debug and show.

RE: OSPF DR problem [7:34379]

2002-02-04 Thread Dusty Harper

That network design is horrendous.  The only way you'd see a default
route is if 1) you were advertising one, or 2) you set up stub networks.

I think the problem is the Area Configuration.  Area 1 is discontiguous.
I bet if you change the Frame Relay Area number to 2, you'll have no
problem

Priscilla,

There must be at least three areas involved in a virtual link.  So I am
intrigued by the phantom area 2.  What area were you expecting to see
on the
other side of area 1?  In your case, it seems as if the ABRs are
directly
connected.  That is to say, the transit area is in essence a p-t-p
connection.  That isn't always necessarily the case so I don't think
OSPF
makes any kind of distinction.  As I understand it, the virtual
connection/tunnel is treated like an unnumbered one.  So the network
statements have to be in place for the transit area in both routers,
area 0
in the backbone ABR, and the discontiguous area in the discontiguous
ABR.
So that is the basis for my interest in your phantom area 2.

Of course, this doesn't seem to be in any way related to why you
wouldn't be
able to see the area 0 network across the ISDN connection.  The
interesting
parallel is that virtual links and demand circuits are both treated the
same.  That is, the DNA bit is set for routes learned via either one.
So is
there anything in your setup not consistent with having DNA show up in
the
topo table?  I can't imagine what but I have never tried anything like
your
setup.

Tough one!

RE: OSPF DR problem [7:34379]

2002-02-04 Thread Dusty Harper

Maybe Discontiguous is the wrong word for it.The problem I see with this
design is that there is basically 2 Area 1s.  The point -to- point
connections would be fine, however in order for the Areas to function
properly they need to know of each other ( all of Area 1 as a whole needs to
know of the other)  This is done via LSA Types 1 and 2.  I know the
reasoning for the Area 2, however I still stand behind the notion that if
you were to change the Frame-Relay Area to 3 your problem would be solved
 
You might also get around this by changing from point to point to a
non-broadcast environment and specify all of your neighbors Router IDs'  :
R1 (S0) R2(BRI0) R9(S0) and R8(BRI0) on each of the routers.

Cil, I drew this one out a little differently just to put a fresh
perspective on it.  Without seeing the requirements of the particular
practice lab you are using, it's hard to say why you were seeing or not
seeing what you did.

area 0
--
||
  R1R2
||
 frame relay   area 1  ISDN area 1
||
  R9R8
||
--  -
area 2


The discontiguous area 1's are irrelevant unless there is overlapping
addressing. The area 2 is placed the way it is in order to force the
creation of a virtual link - common in practice labs and study materials, as
all us CCIE candidates know full well ;-

I am inferring from other comments in other posts that you needed to use the
IP ospf priority command on the R2 ethernet because the requirement is that
R1 is the DR in area 0.

So, given what I see ( not knowing the particulars of your addressing and
various other things, there is no good reason why R9 and R8 should not see
the ethernet network that is area 0.

Along the trail of broken things, I have sometimes run across bizarre issues
which are solved only by reloading routers. My humble pod of 2501's running
enterprise 12.1.11 code sometimes have bizarre problems. I have a theory
that these bloatware images just barely operate within the confined spaces
of 16 megs of DRAM and sometimes you have to clear it out. I have had
bizarre things happen when configuring and unconfiguring various routing
protocols and features. Sometimes, admittedly, mistakes happen when you are
tired, and you can't see straight to correct errors you have made. But other
times, reloads have made magic happen. I am at the point where I am thinking
about backloading to an IOS build that takes less space, just to see if the
occasional weirdness disappears.

Again, based upon what I have seen throughout this thread, and given that
your areas and other configurations are correct, I see no reason why  the
area 0 network should not be visible from R9 and R8.

Chuck

PS as has been discussed here and elsewhere many a time, good practice and
good design have little in common with the CCIE Lab ;-

PPS which practice lab are you looking at? I have NLI, IPExpert, and
SolutionLabs at my disposal.

This is cool!

I just love to read about a lot of boring stuff in a book, sit down and
try
it, and then find out that everything I just read was actually true, and
that it makes perfect sense.

I just took three of my routers and one by one enabled OSPF on one
interface
at a time, and after each configuration, I went ahead and did a 'show ip
ospf int' to see what actually was going on, and was happy to see that
it
was what I had expected to happen, because I had just read about it in
my
book.

That's the fun part of studying - I wish that would have been the same
case
with all the M$ stuff I studied years ago :-(

Anyway, I do have one OSPF question to those of you who have been out
there
messing with it many times: 

What's the most common/practical method when designing the OSPF network.
Is
it to give the area a single decimal value (n), or one that matches
and/or
looks like an IP address (a.b.c.d), which could be the same as the
network?

Also, what method does Cisco prefer if any over the other?

RE: Sample CCNA test question..bogus?

2001-03-15 Thread Dusty Harper

Just to elaborate on Adam's answer  

If you are using CIDR (allows 0 and 255 as networks) you have a
total of 8 networks (2^3)
This leaves you with 8190 hosts per network (2^13 - 2)

The network ranges (256 - 224 = 32 )  (you get the 224 by
counting the 1's in this case 1110)

The hosts range between the network addresses (this accounts for
the subnet address and broadcast address)

172.31.0.0   - 172.31.31.255
172.31.32.0  - 172.31.63.255
172.31.64.0  - 172.31.95.255
172.31.96.0  - 172.31.127.255
172.31.128.0 - 172.31.159.255
172.31.160.0 - 172.31.191.255
172.31.192.0 - 172.31.223.255
172.31.224.0 - 172.31.255.255

So the answer is D

carefully at the answers, D is the only one that can be right because it
is

  Well, since I'm not a qualified psychiatrist I don't want to comment
on
 your mental
  health, but there is a correct answer here.  If we go to binary it
all
 becomes clear.
 
  The /19 means that the first 19 bits are network/subnetwork bits and
the
 remaining 13
  bits are host bits.  Therefore our mask would look like this:
  ..1110.
 
  Since the first two octects are identical, we can dispense with them
and
 concentrate on
  the first 3 bits of the third octet and the remaining host bits.
 
  Our subnet addresses would be as follows:
 
  X.X.. = X.X.0.0 Hosts = X.X.0.1 - X.X.31.254 Bdcst =
 X.X.31.255*
  *Assumes Subnet Zero Allowed
  X.X.0010. = X.X.32.0 Hosts = X.X.32.1 - X.X.63.254 Bdcst
=
 X.X.63.255
  X.X.0100. = X.X.64.0 Hosts = X.X.64.1 - X.X.95.254 Bdcst
=
 X.X.95.255
  X.X.0110. = X.X.96.0 Etcetera, Etcetera
  .
  .
  Etcetera (You get the picture)
 
  From this you can see that:
  answer A is the "wire" address of the 32 subnet
  answer B is the "wire" address of the 64 subnet
  answer C is the Broadcast address of the 32 subnet
  answer D falls within the valid host range for the 64 subnet and is
 correct.

 10.11.12.0  255.255.255.0  10.11.12.13 10.11.13.13 1  -local network (One to be deleted)

 10.11.12.13  255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 1  --local host

 10.11.12.255  255.255.255.255 10.11.12.13 10.11.12.13 1  --local network broadcast

 192.168.20.0  255.255.255.0  192.168.20.111 192.168.20.111 1  -local network 

 192.168.20.111  255.255.255.255 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 1  --local host

 192.168.20.255  255.255.255.255 192.168.20.111 192.168.20.111 1  --local network broadcast

 255.255.255.255 255.255.255.255 10.11.12.13 10.11.13.13 1  --broadcast


 Why would someone need to or want to manually delete out a local network route? it is to my understanding that 3 routes need to exist for basic connectivity via TCP/IP (besides the loopback and broadcast):

 The local host

 The local network

 The local network broadcast


 Any feedback is appreciated

RE: IPX RIP Updates

Title: RE: IPX RIP Updates






IPX RIP Packets are advertised every 60 seconds as are IPX SAP Packets...A lot of Implementations stagger the two protocols to lessen the broadcasts simultaneously. (RIP wait 30 sec SAP wait 30 sec RIP wait 30 sec SAP ) This is still broadcasting every 60 seconds though.

My CCDA Study Guide has conflicting statements concerning the update

frequency of IPX RIP. One place says 30 secs, same as IP RIP; another table

says 60 secs. Which is correct? Please help, my CCDA exam is Friday

afternoon. Thanks

It looks like no matter what our thoughts are on things like CCIE for

Fortunately, the Lab will always be our protection.

It is called a MAU )(Multi-Station Access Unit) basically it has a Ring in and a ring out. it functions very much like a hub.




  

 Ring In --Ring Out --Ring In --Ring Out -|

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to connect two routers with token ring interface? you

connect 2 routers with enthernet interfaces by connecting them to a

enthernet hub, is there anything like token ring hub?


Thanks in advance.

RE: Question on missing ranges...

2000-05-19 Thread Dusty Harper (Volt Computer)
Title: RE: Question on missing ranges...






400-499 is used for XNS

500-599 is used for extended XNS


 They are not in the exam cram because they are not really covered on the exam you are studying for. Which really shows the good and bad qualities behind books generated just for the exam.

Subject: Question on missing ranges...



Hey Group,

 I was just finalizing my cram session when I came accross something that I hadn't noticed before. It's not very important and don't think it will come up on the test but I'm simply asking out of curiosity. The access list ranges are as follows:

1-99 = IP Standard

100-199 = IP Extended

200-299 = Protocol type-code

300-399 = DECnet

600-699 = Appletalk

700-799 = 48 bit MAC

800-899 = IPX standard

900-999 = IPX extended

1000-1099 = IPX SAP

1100-1199 = Extended 48 bit MAC

1200-1299 = IPX Summary address


Now my question is quite simple...What happened to the number range of 400-599??? Are these used for something else that we don't need to know? Why aren't they in the book? And why don't they even address why they're not in the book with an explanation? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for the help. ;)
