Normally, tokens go round and round in the 2 rings, one clockwise and one counterclockwise, and go past each other without ever touching. However, when they would otherwise cross the equator, tokens reverse direction and switch rings. Sometimes, when that happens, they collide and give birth to exotic MAC layer protocols, which scientists like me study and write long monographs about.

Well, maybe I'm missing something, but I don't see how a route could go down more than once without going up meanwhile, or up more than once without going down meanwhile. So 1 and 2 are pretty much the same thing, except perhaps for an extra up or down at either end. OTOH, it could be that some BGP implementations send several WITHDRAWS in a row, or that a single route going down may result in a given router getting several withdraws (eg, redundant route reflectors, or multiple peers advertizing the same prefix). Does someone know whether 1- BGP protocol definition allows sending several WITHDRAWS to the same peer for a single up-down transition and 2- routers apply the flap penalty repeatedly when they get a WITHDRAW for a prefix already marked down? -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Hmm, you configured it as a serial interface, wo I assume that the whole bandwidth of your T1 goes to a single destination (eg, ISP router port). You want to load-balance 30% (100% - 70% load threshold needed for ISDN to kick in) of your T1's bandwidth, which is about 450 Kbits/sec., with 1 ISDN channel, which will give you 1/7 at best of that bandwidth. So the main snag, I would think, is that your ISDN won't help that much. OTOH, it will come handy when your T1 gets acquainted with a backhoe, which also appears to be one of your design goals, since you put in a backup delay. Depending on how you rank these design goals, you'll get a satisfied customer or an irate one. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

The BRI kicks in at 70% of the T1's bandwidth, so the fraction of the T1's bandwidth that gets spread out is the remaining 30%, or perhaps the difference between 70% and the peak usage, come to think of it. If the original poster didn't baseline that already, now would be a good time to. > I donn't see how the backup delay really has anything to do with the > "loadsharing" issue? It doesn't, but I never said it did. :-) The 30% I mentioned comes from 100% (full T1 bandwidth) - the 70 of the backup load command, not the 30 of the backup delay. > As I write this I find that I have some questions? > ### It has been a while, and the Docs are a little vague### > 1.

I don't have routers handy to experiment on, but my guesses would be: 1. No. Backup requires that the ISDN or analog line be setup to call the same router as the point-to-point line it's supposed to back up, IIRC. Hence, the output load on one router should be the same as the input load on the other. 2. Dunno either. It would make sense for it to, since otherwise the other router would restart the backup at once. OTOH, it assumes that both have the same backup load thresholds. Perhaps someone would care to set up a lab and report? Chuck? Circusnuts? Cthulu?

Pick any that's feasible in your setup. 3- Telnet into the router. 2- Dial into the router's con or aux port. 3- Handhold, bribe, or blackmail someone into pressing the required keys for you. 4. Hire a NASA space probe designer to build a remote-controlled robot with a camera and a 1-fingered "hand", and use that to press the required keys. Just in case you're asking which commands to use, they're the same that you would use if connected to the con port, unless you're looking for password recovery (ie, I don't remember the password, and I need to change/view it). In the latter case, search http://www.cisco.com/ for "password recovery". HTH -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

I hate to reopen that debate, but what difference would that leave between a CCIE and a CCNP/CCDP with say, 5-6 years experience? Sure, looking at it from the employer's seat, it's nice to have (relatively) cheap people who can deal competently with the 50% (or whatever) of all available technologies that 99% of all networks will use in some form, but what (IMHO) makes a CCIE worth the money is the ability to deal with the older or exotic technologies that only 1% of the sites use. To give a concrete example, it may be OK to require CCDPs and CCNPs to know about FR, but not about X.25, but if you do the same for CCIEs, then anyone who *needs* the features that only X25 provides is left up the proverbial creek. (Having seen the kind of infrastructure that's considered state of the art in some countries or locations from my stint with an oil company, I can attest that when you need X25 or LAPB, you need it badly, and switching to FR/HDLC/PPP is simply not an option.) *tosses 2 cents Allanward* -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Thanks! Strictly speaking, it doesn't. It implies that there are packets sent out one router that don't make it to the other, but packets may be dropped before or after the stage that would increment the counter you and your boss are looking at. For instance, they may be dropped within the FR cloud itself, because of congestion or transmission errors, or on the sending router after the frame exited the PVC-specific queue and entered the common interface queue (assuming there's such a thing). You may want to look at a few other statistics to help you figure what's going on and where: - show interface (CRC errors, other input errors, input/output drops) - show frame pvc (in/out FECN/BECN/DE packets) -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

The first thought that comes to mind is that the switch got confused and has the wrong MAC address in its ARP table, or the wrong port in its switching table, for the first hop to the failing subnet. Another possible cause is that at some point, it received an ICMP redirect pointing it to a first hop that's no longer present. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Historically, the -M variants' motherboards have been redesigned to be more flexible than the M-less' while using the same software and interfaces. Typical differences are more maximum memory (RAM/flash) or smaller increments. If the configuration is one that's possible only on the -M, that's what you have. Otherwise, it could be either. You may also be able to tell based on the manufacturing date or serial #. How much that matters in practice is uncertain, though. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

I meant to add the URL for the actual syntax description, then decided as I read it that it was a bit obscure as an introduction to regular expressions. Anyway, here's my FMTYWTK answer: _ matches any character that separates individual ASNs in an AS path, including the start or end of the AS path. So _123 ensures that the 123 in the regular expression won't match say, AS 4123. It could, however, match AS 1234 if used by itself, but the rest of the expression will take care of that. + matches at least one occurence, and perhaps more than one, of the preceding character or sub-expression between (). So if your peer indulges in AS path prepending, (_123)+ will take care of that by matching 123 123 or 123 123 123 12345 as well as a single 123 or 1234. The rest of the regular expression, and specifically the _ that starts (_456)+, takes care of that, since it doesn't match the 4 in 1234 or 12345, but only the separator after the 3 of the final 123. Now that I dissected your regular expression, I will say that IMHO, it's more complex than what you need, and may still not do what you want in some cases. Depending on what you want, you may use one of the following: - To match any AS path that contains ASNs 123 and 456 in that order, and may contain any other ASN either before or after, but not between, use _123_456_ (Note that this would still match 123 789 456 123 456, but that path has a loop in it, and if your peer will feed you that kind of paths, you have more serious trouble than just an unwanted 789.) - To match any AS path that starts with one or more occurences of ASN 123, followed with one (at least) occurence of 456, possibly followed by other ASNs, use ^(123_)+456_ - To match any AS path that starts with one or more occurences of ASN 123, possibly followed by one or more occurences of ASN 456, but contains no other ASN, use ^(123_)+(456_)*$ -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

As Priscilla said, it allows some degree of control over how characters coming in on an asynchronous line are bunched together into packets, to avoid having packets with 1 byte payload and 60 bytes overhead (for telnet), or even 1 byte payload and 5 bytes overhead (for triple X, which is probably where the whole scheme comes from). Anyway, you want the router/terminal server/PAD to stop gathering incoming bytes and send them out in a packet if any of the following happens: - there are more than n characters pending, for some predefined n. - there are characters pending and nothing comes in on the line for longer than a certain time. - a trigger character marking the end of a logical unit (eg, CR meaning end of line), or a special action (such as ^C meaning ABORT ABORT ABORT) that the host wants to see as soon as the trigger char is seen. - a character marking the start of a sequence that should be sent as a single unit, such as the ESC that often starts a function key. Mapping from those to the commands you listed is left as an exercise for the reader. :-) -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Correct. Proxy ARP still remains useful when you have say, to split a 400-host ethernet into 4 VLANS. With it active on the router interface(s), you don't need to reconfigure the hosts' notion of the mask all at once. I'm not sure why it still defaults to on, though. (Or does it? It did last time I looked, but that was quitre some time ago.) > Has it sunk through this thick head finally? > > PS Comer states that proxy arp is aka arp hack. :-> IIRC, that's the name it got when someone proposed it as a temporary workaround at the time subnetting was introduced. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Hard to answer that with the information you're giving. What problem do you think the HTTP caching server(s) will solve? Do you have a central Internet connection, or does each cafe have its own? If the former, what's the topology of your network? If the latter, how does each cafe connect to the Internet? In both cases, do you have stats on the total number of HTTP requests vs. the number of unique URLs accessed, and the corresponding volumes? And do you know where your towel is? -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Assuming the bandwidth you want to save is on the links from each cafe to your ISP, and unless you have your cafes connected together with bandwidth to spare on *those* links, then the only solution is to have one cache server per cafe. Been a long time since I looked at it, but a decent Unix-based PC running harvest or squid should be well within your budget. Or you could go with the cisco devices, if they do what you want and you're more familiar with them. Dunno where that would leave your budget, though. If, OTOH, the bandwidth bottleneck is within your ISP or upstream, and you can colo a machine with them, you may want to have a single cache server located there. You will user as much bandwidth on the links from your cafes to the ISP as you would without any caching external to the browsers, but you will save more, since all requests for a given static page will be served by the caching server, no matter how many cafes request it. Oh, and the purpose of the list is (also) to help its subscribers learn about network design issues beyond strictly cisco-related issues, not just to provide free advice. :-) Accordingly, it's a good idea to cc: it on all follow-ups.

ObWhereDidItGo: Does anyone know where the "Ask Dr. DNS" web site went? I wanted to point the poster to it, but couldn't find it. Oh well... Just making sure I understand you right: - You are the proud owner of domain bar.com. - Some machine foo.bar.com is a public resource on your network, and it is about to get a new IP address (or perhaps a group of machines is). - You want to avoid becoming the proud owner of a giant headache. In the procedure below, I'm going to assume that a 1-2 hour window from the time you switch over the server and the time the last clients elsewhere on the Internet see the new address is tolerable. Also, some of the parameters below are arbitrary. Adjust as you see fit. The key is to have direct control of the primary, or master, name server for your domain. If you don't have that control, get it handed to you ASAP. Well, perhaps not to you personally, but it should be controlled by your organization, not by your ISP. Otherwise, you will most likely have problems. With that done, the rest is comparatively easy. Lower the minimum and refresh times for your domain (in the SOA for domain bar.com, in my example) and the TTL for the resources you're switching (the A for foo.bar.com), in the weeks and days before the switch. Exactly when and by how much, depends on the initial value. Assuming they were set to 1 week (a common value), you could set them to 24 hours 8 days before the switch, then to 1 hour 36 hours before the switch. When the time comes for the switch, change the address(es) *and the serial # in the SOA*, and make your master server reload the zone. Check that it loaded correctly, then have your slave servers get the zone from the master. (Note: some of your slave servers may not be under your control, and their admins may be reluctant to empty their dearly bought name cache just for you. Don't lose too much sleep if that happens: Thanks to the previous step, they will reload your zone anyway in at most 1 hour, and most if not all clients will see the changes in at most 2 hours.) Test that clients go to the new address for the server. Let it rest some time, say 24 hours, until you're sure the changes have had time to percolate everywhere but to the more weirdly (and probably incorrectly) configured name servers, then change the refresh and minimum values on the SOA and the TTL on the A resource back to their former values. Don't forget to change the serial # again. This time, don't bother reloading your slave servers or bugging sysadmins. They'll pick up on the changes soon enough without needing human intervention. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Judging by the edge bus connector and the bracket, it's an ISA (or perhaps EISA) card. Judging by the connector on the other side, it was probably designed to be mated to something else, or perhaps as a dual-bus card.

The burst facility you're thinking of is probably the one used by NCP, which is Novell's notion of a client-to-server application-level protocol, and is to SPX what the original NFS was to TCP (ie, a distant relative). SPX-with-a-real-window was (IIRC) what SPX2 would have been had it not been stillborn.

Compression, if performed *before* encrypting, removes redundancy, thus making cryptanalysis much harder. It used to be, though, that cisco routers, when asked to do both, would insist on encrypting first, thus essentially turning compression into a time-consuming no-op.

Can you post your whole configuration to the list? (Sanitize as necessary.) A few things you may want to try or check: - I don't think you need the backup statements in that case. What triggers dialing using the BRI isn't e1 going down, but traffic to 172.20.20.0/24 after EIGRP removes the route to that through e1. - Is 10.10.9.5 reachable with e1 down? Does pinging it bring up bri0? - When you say bri0 doesn't come up, do you mean when e1 goes down, when the EIGRP route goes away, or when there's traffic for 172.20.20.0/24 and the route's down?

Another possible explanation is that packets going into an interface get out of that same interface. Total input rate is 3803 bps, vs a total output rate of 39136000 bps, which is much closer (about 2.5% vs 33%), and even more so when you look at packet rates (5119 pps input vs. 5188 pps output, which are within 1.5% of each other). Does that suggest anything? -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Short answer: What problem are you trying to solve? Long answer: If you really want maximum security, you should power off your routers and your servers, unplug them, encase them into several ft. of concrete, and dump them into the Marianas Trench. As that wouldn't let you offer any Internet or dial-up access, you will have to trade off security vs. functionality. How much of each, and at what cost, should be in a requirements document called a security policy, much as for any other network design process. If you don't have that document, *ask for it now*. If it doesn't exist, write it *and have your customer/boss/whatever sign it*, or better, have the aforementioned critter write and sign it. Then use it to design and implement your firewall.

ATM is better where bandwidth reservation, guaranted low/bounded variations in transit time, and similar QoS-related features, are required.

Script-based solution: use perl and one of Expect.pm, Net::Telnet.pm, and Net::Telnet::Cisco.pm, and hope that the enable secret hasn't changed. Router-based solution: use service config in your router configuration and "reload at" or "reload in" to have your routers reload at 3am. Then you just have to deal with students removing the config command and saving, or cancelling the reload. Bottom line: You probably can't have a fully automated system. Whether a partial solution one would be good enough depends on how often your students do something that defeats it. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.

Semi-RANT: extended exams [7:7871]
This is a copy of a message I sent to cisco training about hidden dangers of extended exams. Thoughtful comments and answering rants are equally welcome. No flames, please. -- Forwarded message -- From: ElephantChild To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sat, 9 Jun 2001 13:51:08 +0200 (CEST) Subject: CSIDS 2.0 beta: can I have the unextended version? Organization: (noun) 1. the act or process of organizing. 2. the state of being organized. 3. a body of persons acting together for some purpose. On June 1st, I registered to take 9E1-572, the CSIDS 2.0 beta. I'm scheduled to take it on June 14 at a VUE testing center in France. The confirmation message I received stated that the test time was extended by 30 minutes to accomodate me as a "non-native English speaker living in (a) non-English-speaking country", when I didn't request any such accomodation. That, IMO, carries 3 disturbing assumptions: 1- That no native English speaker would live outside an English-speaking country. 2- That ESL fluency is somehow inferior to native fluency, and not enough to handle technical material on a subject I should know well at the same rate as a native speaker would, or at a rate close enough not to need extra time. 3- That I want the extension at all. I raised that issue with VUE, and I was eventually told that I needed to get approval from cisco training before VUE, or anyone, would let me take the unextended version. If you follow discussions among cisco certified professionals, you probably noticed that a recurring theme is the perception that making any certification too easy lowers the worth of all certifications for those who hold them, are preparing for them, or are contemplating passing them. Granted, some candidates, maybe most of them, know the subject well enough, but have trouble with English and need the extra time to understand the questions and the possible answers. For them, the extra time may help keep the exam more or less as difficult as the unextended exam is for a candidate fluent in English. However, for a fluent English speaker (whether native or not), that's not needed, and forcing me to take an extended version when I don't need it is lowering its worth for all candidates worldwide. This strikes me as especially important for a beta exam, as you're still trying to set the difficulty and evaluate individual questions for clarity, accuracy, and relevance. I'm not sure how many worldwide will be taking that exam, and what share of them got the extended version. It seems to me, though, that the less unsure you are how much of the score comes from domain knowledge and how much from English fluency (or the lack of either), the better for the released exam. I respectfully request that you make extended exams an option, available to the candidates who request them, and not force them on candidates who neither want nor need them. I also request that you let candidates registered for the beta who didn't take it already choose which version they want to take, and inform them quickly if you decide to grant my request. Thanks for listening. -- "Someone approached me and asked me to teach a javascript course.
