Terminal Server to 3542 Switch Access Probelms [7:42802]
I am having a problem getting a CS-516 to reverse telnet to a 3524XL Switch. The 516 is running 10.3(7) and can reverse telnet to routers, a PIX and VPN 3005 with no problem. If I move a known good port from say a router to the 3524, it will not make the connection. If I connect my PC serial port to the switch, it works great... the same cable that works with the other devices. I have tried several cables (all that work with other devices.. it should be a rolled cable, but I also tried a straight through cable as well). I have even tried other ports off the 516. Is there anything special about the console port, or config on the 3524? Flowcontrol - Stop Bits???

Re: BGP Synchronization and OSPF External Routes [7:35131]
I don't think this is just OSPF, but rather any protocol that recognized Internal and External Routes. From what I understand, the basic reason is to keep from shooting yourself in the foot. For example, why would you want to advertise addresses that belong to another AS? On Page 135 of Internet Routing Architectures, Halabi writes, (In the Cisco implementation, external OSPF routes are automatically blocked from being redistributed into BGP; the administrator has the option of overriding this behavior.) I haven't tries it, but on page 318, it looks like you simply match both types on the redistribution command... router bgp 3 redistribute ospf 10 match external 1 external 2. Also on 318, Halabi states this is for loop avoidance in the case the external OSPF information came from BGP. For more info you can look on CCO: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/104/bgp-ospf-redis.html http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/12cgcr/np1_c /1cprt1/1cbgp.htm Ed Jeff Hillman wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I have not been able to find any information on Cisco's site on why BGP synchronization does not recognize OSPF E1 or E2 external routes when checking the IGP routing table. Does anyone have an explination for this? If I put a static route into the local routing table, it synchronizes without any problems. The same is true with any other IGP except OSPF. Has anyone else seen this? Is there a work-around (other than 'no synchronization')?

Re: Need some advice on a Frame Relay Latency issue [7:15146]
First - I believe that ICMP replies are a low priority, so they may not be an accurate representation of latency. Second - Latency is primarily a product of distance. In theory, if the line distance is the same, latency should be at least relatively close given a direct line vs. frame. Of course, frame will have some overhead as it tends to traverse more devices. Check with the carrier and verify the line config... is it ESF/B8Zs or SF/AMI? Who is providing the clocking? Are the DS0's 64k or 56k? Verify the settings on the CSU/DSUs on each side. I have seen a similar problem where the line was relatively short, carrier provided no clocking, and the line was set for SF/AMI. The router was using internal T1 WICs with them set to SF/AMI. Simple pings would work fine, but any type of load would cause excessive CRC errors. Changing the T1 clocking to a internal on one side didn't seem to fix it. After some thinking... basically SF/AMI uses 7 bits, and ESF/B8Zs uses 8 bits. This is the difference between 56k and 64k channels. Changing the DS0 on the line to 56k fixed the problem. Ed Raul De La Garza wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hello everyone. I have a peculiar problem with one of my company's FR circuits. We have been trying to troubleshoot this issue ever since we purchased FR to replace point-to-point HDLC. This circuit has a 256K CIR and 512K port speed. Bandwidth utilization is low and never approaches the CIR. The remote router's CPU and memory utilization are also very low. At present, only weighted fair queueing is enabled. We have tried priority queueing and traffic shaping to no avail. User response times are extremely high ranging anywhere between 80ms to over 2000ms! Also, we are routing IP (no ip routing protocol, I have set a default route back to corporate as this remote office is one of a few spokes in our hub-and-spoke topology) and we are routing IPX using EIGRP. The central site FR router is a 3640 with two T1 WICs with integrated DSUs. The remote site router is a 2501 connected to an ADC Kentrox DataSMART 658 T1 DSU. Our FR vendor claims that his tests running from DCE to DCE receive a consistent response time of 70ms. However, the vendor has noted that when ICMP messages are sent to the remote router some are responded to very quickly but most do take an unusually great amount of time in responding. This the vendor found when placing a sniffer on the local loop. So it seems that there may be a config issue or a hardware issue at our remote site. Any words of wisdom you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Following are the configs for the remote router and the central router. REMOTE Clrwtr_Frame#sh run Building configuration...

Re: Cable modems 2501s?? [7:13626]
wow... looks like everyone has their own opinion on this. Yes, a 2501 can do inside and outside NAT on the same interface... this would be one solution. Another would be to use primary and secondary addresses on the interface. For both of there, you would need a hub attached to the cable modem and the router. There are many other options out there. Personally I use a LinkSys Cable/DSL router. This has an outside address, and then NATs the inside addresses. It will also do basic PAT as well...

Re: ccna challenge question [7:13565]
Everyone has some good ideas on this... and one of the replies made me rethink my previous answer Look at it from the aspect of the ROUTER... assuming that this is implemented on a router. An interface with the address of 172.18.2.0 and a mask of 255.255.254.0 will send directed broadcasts to 172.18.3.255. Answer B is correct. However the above router sends a RIP version 1 update (which is classless) to router B. Router B gets the router 172.18.2.0 and no mask information. It assumes a classful boundary. ( I know, there are other rules that affect the advertisement and receipt of the route) Router B will then send directed broadcasts to 172.18.255.255. I think everyone would agree that the question is poorly worded... If I came across the question I would still select 'C' as my answer, 172.18.255.255.

Re: Cisco Press Vs Sybex Which Way Forward === [7:13243]
I agree with Chuck... I'll take good advice from anywhere I can get it This goes back to : where go you get your good judgment? I get my good judgment from good experience! And where do you get your good experience? From bad judgment! I tend to like the Cisco Press books more for the certification series than the others. First, Cisco is putting their name on the books - Granted, Cisco Press is another publishing company and they are out to make money. However I have to believe that when a Cisco Press book says CCNP/CCDP, it follows the actual Cisco course material more closely, at least that is my experience from reading the books then taking the exams. Remember, there are many ways to do something... but there is also the Cisco way - not to say that the Cisco way is always right, or even wrong, but when they make a statement in a class, it should be that way for the exam. Like the difference between a pilot and a prototype... I come from an electronics engineering background... I think Cisco has the terms reversed in their texts... But when it comes to the exam... its the Cisco Way. There are many authors out there, of which I am one. I was a contributing author to a book in a CCNP series. My certification doesn't mean that I am an expert, and by no means does my Cisco certification qualify me to teach. The sign of a good author or instructor is how well they are able to present the material... Yes, they have to know the material, and this is through experience. However, my experience doesn't provide me with any more insight to the Cisco exams than the person reading the book other than I have taken the exam and passed. I make statements relating to the exam blueprint, and those statements are related to my education and my experience keeping in mind, that my answer may not be the Cisco answer - Ed Edward A.

Re: Cisco Exam Subnetting question! [7:4310]
It appears that a portion of the question may be missing. My best answer would be - there are 32 bits total. 22 bits are for the network portion 2^22 = 4194304 subnets 10 bits are for the host portion 2^10 = 1024-2 or 1022 hosts in each subnet. This dosen't match any of your answers. Mileage may vary based on the missing info. If you said it was a class B address range and you had 22 bit mask, I would say: Class B has 16 network bits. The mask is 22 bits, so we have 6 bits to play with for networks. 2^6 is 64 networks. Beware that according to the Cisco Class meterials, they still say the first and last subnet can not be used - so this leaves 62 usable subnets. We still have 10 host bits, so it is the same as above. Beware of the termonolgy - In my example, we have 16 network bits, 6 subet bits and 10 host bits. The network bits are determined by the address class.

PPP vs. HDLC refers to the line encapsulation, or what the routers use to communicate. This is independent of the line coding (ESF/B8ZS). If you are talking Cisco to Cisco equipment use HDLC.If you are talking Cisco to something else, PPP is the way to go since Cisco's HDLC is a proprietary implementation.

Re: Subnet question
The 20 bit prefix extends four bits into the third octet (176). 176 in binary is 1011, so with the mask the address ends at 1011. You want to use the next four bits for subnetting (last four 0's) This gives the range of 1011 (176) through 1011 (191) providing 16 subnets with 256 addresses in each subnet. Typically the first and last subnet are not used, toss out 176 and 191, this leaves 177 through 190, each with a 24 bit mask. (We started with 20 bits, and we added four bits for our own subnets).

Re: Frame Relay...Inverse-Arp..?
Yes, you are correct on both counts. 1. Both Caslow's book and Cisco's documentation state the same - if a map is used, inverse arp is disabled for that dlci for that protocol on that interface. 2. If you set up a lab to prove this, you can't. I did the same, and got the same results as you. Creat the map between the spokes, save the config and reload. When everything comes up, both static and dynamic entries are in the cache. I attended anohter class from Mentor, and asked my instructor about this. He asked Bruce, and the inital answer "IOS bug". I ran my lab using both 11.2 and 11.3 enterprise, with the same results. Bruce was to get back with me with more specifics, but I haven't heard yet. I will definately ask when I attend ECP1 in April. If someone attends this class sooner... maybe they can ask. As far as using it in a lab if I used maps, I would also specify no frame inverse-arp. (I think version 12 automatically adds this).

Re: CCIE Written Test - retraction
This does cause a bit of confusion I took the CCIE writen twice. I saw the same question on each test. It was in the format of select all that apply. After each test, I looked and looked on CCO to find the possible answer. I researched each of the possible answers that I was presented... and still was unable to find the correct "Cisco" answer. I do like to know where I went wrong - how can I ask this, without violating the NDA? I mean exactly where is the line that will violate the NDA. How many have read version 7 of the Cisco Career Certifications Agreement? In the agreement they make a very broad statent regarding "proprietary inforamtion" that includes: Section 6... "questions, answers, worksheets, diagrams, lenghth and/or number of exam segments and/or questions, or any communication, including verbal communication regarding or related to the exam..." In the broadest sence, I take this to mean, if it was on the test, we can not discuss the topic as it relates to the test.If this is the case, everyone on the list is guilty! Case in point, If I took the test, and saw a question that is related to decoding the RIF, and someone is going to take the test asks "how is the RIF put together." Under the agreement, that would be confidential. Even if Cisco has previously disclosed this information! Hmmm... even in Secion 8, Conduct of Business, of the agreement, "... shall conduct his business in a manner which reflects favorably upon the products, services, reputaion and goodwill of Cisco..." Does this mean that if we work for a reseller, and a customer asks us to compare Cisco's product X to Competitor's product Y, that we have to say the Cisco product is better? I mean if we say that the competitor's product is better, it dosen't "refelct favorably" upon the Cisco product, even if it is true! The above are taken to the extreme. In my mind, a violation is if I ask "I had this question on the exam, what are the answers". Or if I say "I had the following on my exam" If someone asks a question, with the intent of learning the technology, and not to just pass the exam, I will help where I can.

CCIE Written Passed
I finally made a passing mark for the CCIE Written with a 79%. Four days ago I missed the passing score by only 3%. With the encouragement of several people here in GroupStudy, co-workers and friends, I was convinced to reschedule. From my original exam, I scored very low in areas that I thought I would have been comfortable in. I believe my comfort level contributed to those poor scores. Many have said it before read the question, read it again. You should know the answer before you look at the possibilities. After you have made your selection - read it again and ensure it is justified. For studying for the exam, I really don't have much more to offer than what has already been posted elsewhere on the list other than these comments: I believe the "CCIE Study Guide" by Giles provides an excellent presentation on layer one and two topics for each of the technologies (Ethernet, Token-Ring, FDDI, etc.).

Re: Rip over frame issue
Nigel... take another look, I don't think its split-horizon, router 2 is only a frame switch. That would make it strictly a peer config, not hub and spoke. Next, please post the configs of R1 and R3. What IP addresses are on R3 for S0 and L0? If you have the same networks on both R1 and R3, I don't think you would have any RIP routes, because all networks would be directly connected. Also, is this RIP v1 or v2? With RIP v1 , when receiving information about routes within the same major network, hosts and routers assume the same prefix length as that on the incoming interface of the route information (assuming it is not in the same major subnet). The subnet mask of S0 in your config would be fairly critical. If the 172 address has a 16 bit mask on R1, and S0 has a 24 bit mask, the 172 route on R3 will appear with a 16 bit mask.Again, need the configs to see what is happening. I'm not quite certain how it would be handled if you have the same subnet defined on both routers I kind of assume that since it should have a directly connected route, the RIP route would be discarded. Using the 'debug ip rip' command, you can actually see the update sent by the router. I put together a lab to better understand RIP, you can find the lab and results with links to CCO at http://omaha.ciscousers.org/lab/lab_challenge.htm Ed _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Frame Relay Map Help
No, Inverse arp at the hub is still active. Since there is a frame map statement on the spokes, I expect that inverse arp would be disabled for the protocol (IP) and the dlci as Cisco's documentation states. Caslow's book shows that the spoke router would lose the dynamic maps. On the other hand the hub has no idea of the spoke's map statement... and will still send its info down the serial line the spoke router will hear the info and associate the IP with the dlci. This is the only rationalization I have as to why the spoke router still gets the dynamic info.

Re: Companies requiring proof of previous salary
Rule 1: You are only worth what it costs to replace you. Rule 2: There is ALWAYS someone willing to do more work for less money. On applications, it normally asks salary at each position. I typically list the range of my present position. I am normally willing to provide a copy of my present job description, and the HR document that show the salary range for the position. (depending on where I am in the scale) It boils down to the point where your skills are more important to one employer than another, and that employer is willing to show it. For me to leave one job and go to another, so same responsibilities and same pay, there must be something extremely wrong with my present employer. On the other hand... moving to a new job often means new responsibilities and challenges. If I am happy where I am, the potential employer needs to provide an incentive for me to leave... and to do that I typically I look for at least a 10% - 20% jump in pay.

Re: personal firewall
LinkSys has some good basic products that are priced around $110 and $170. Like I said, these are basic and dont provide features like stateful packet inspection, filters based on TCP/UDP, etc. I also believe they have a limit of something like 10 ports active per connection unless you do a passthrough, but that sort of defeats the purpose of the firewall. Watchguard also makes a product that I think is better, but it costs about $370. It provides both NAT and PAT, and you can filter based on source/destination addresses and port numbers. The first year of "managed security" is also provided... although giving up control has overtones of Big Brother but hey... its a service for people that dont know firewalls.

Re: Ethernet Collisions
If the router and the switch are the only devices connected, say by a cross over cable, I would first make the assumption that the crossover cable is at fault. Next, I believe all of the 10Mb router interfaces are half-duplex, so I would ensure the switch port is set to half-duplex and 10Mb (don't let the switch auto configure the connection) Last the only time I have personally seen this was when the network had multiple subnets configured with workstations at 100Mb, and the router had to route between them. This was during an IP address conversion that wasn't quite completed. (Servers were left on one subnet while workstation were on another.) Workstations would negotiate a 100Mb, full duplex connection... then try to talk to a server (same broadcast domain, different subnet) at 100Mb full-duplex. The bottleneck was the router at 10Mb half-duplex. Ed Moss CCNP, CCDP, CNE "Mike Baker" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Thanks - CID passed
Thanks to everyone in the group... I passed CID this morning which completes the CCDP track. I completed the test in one hour They provide two hours to obtain a minimum 65% on 100 questions. To study, I used only the Cisco Press Books "Cisco Internetwork Design", and followed this up with "Advanced Network Design". I also used Cisco's Self Paced Training "SNA/IP Solutions for Systems Engineers". CCO was invaluable as I also read through the document "ATM Network Design" and reviewed the overviews and specs of various ATM products since the Cisco Press books leave much of this information out. As many have stated on the list, the majority of the test centers around Network/Protocol/WAN design. The test objectives published by Cisco are an accurate representation of what is on the test. This test was "easier" than DCN as I didn't have to worry about case studies, however there wasn't as much networking theory, but much more info to recall. If you didn't read it... or don't know it... you most likely wont get the correct answer. General test taking... trying to eliminate obvious wrong answers wont help much since most of the statements or potential answers are correct, but may not relate to the question. For example... a question may be related to the distribution layer but makes accurate statements about all three layers... end result... you have to know which one fits into each layer.
