off-topic: Attrition in the ranks? [7:12768]
[demime could not interpret encoding binary - treating as plain text] Has anyone else (hopefully) noticed a reduction in the "wow-i can get a ccnp and immediately make a small fortune, then on to ccie and it's time to pick out a yacht" mania/irrational exuberance? I've noticed a slight drop following the dotcom/telecom debacles and was just wondering if others have noticed anything similar or if people are still going 'all out' in hopes that telecom will ultimately bounce back. Many people that I have spoken with (not necessarily a statistically sound cross-section) seem to be crossing-over/back to the mcse 2k (and soon to be xp/.net) arena as they guard their enterprise jobs. Unsettling flash forward-- Jane Smith basks in the moment of being awarded CCIE #10,000 by showing off her commemorative "CCIE Pez Dispenser" to her friends/family. Perhaps Cisco could have pursued the "righteoous tree hugger" angle as a reason to suspend the creation of those (apparently) outrageously expensive plaques (presumably made in part with sacred rain forest wood). Or maybe they could co-brand with RONCO and come out with the "CCIE/ Popeil Pocket Fisherman with built in RIF decoder ring as the prize for passing" ???

re: good news and bad news for 1 day lab [7:13240]
[demime could not interpret encoding binary - treating as plain text] 8000!!! Is this possible??? Assuming even a marginal passing rate, that sure dumps a lot of CCIEs into an already depressed employment arena. Surely the VAR appetite can't be that ravenous with the techonomy on its backside? Maybe those "trucking schools" that advertise on late night tv will soon branch out into CCIE training/quickie certification as well. I'm fearing the day that I see a "Guaranteed CCIE in 7 days" banner on any given tech site. This doesn't sound that far-fetched if Cisco caves further and simply allows/promotes widespread remote-access "lab" testing [which will no doubt be considered attractive by some bean counters at Cisco who will always strive for full automation -- effectively reducing the "lab" terminology to a complete joke as it becomes just another rote memorization mcse-like exercise]. Let's hope not btw -- Based on my experience in the field (which may not necessarily be a great example), it seems that quite often MANY network "problems" are related to the "no brainer" topics that Cisco is reportedly electing to eliminate (setting up and troubleshooting cabling and addressing issues). Nothing like sacrificing the fundamentals at the altar of expediency. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ahmed Mamoor Amimi Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2001 2:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: good news and bad news for 1 day lab [7:13237] Guys, There are some good news and some bad for the CCIE LAB exam . Good News : 1- the lab is changing into one day lab (not to stress on 2 day hard working) 2- the basic configuration like ip addressing and cabling are pre-installed 3- the best in all no reverse telneting (no need to practic on access server) 4- lab can now be schedul earlier 5- affective from 1 sept. 6- no need to take the written exam again if u are of old one as both the written and lab is changing 7- all the topics are unchanged so no need to look for more... only patren had changed 8- best in all the 30 marks seperate troubleshooting is not requried but will be testing on that same day th proctor will monitor u how u troubleshoot devices. 9- The knob switch will be added to the lab for shifting from one router to another for config. (very easy)... and it will cost u around $40. Bad news : 1- According to CISCO the market have only 6000 CCIE around the globle so more should be needed so i think the CCIE will be in SURPLUS after it like MCSE and CCNP as they are giving relax to this project. 2- 3900 token ring switch is added. 3- may be LS1010 will be added to the lab. 4- according to JEFF (CCIE lab Manager) the VoIP will be in the lab at anytime. 5- There are around 8000 people to go for the CCIE lab in sept till nov. so i thing there will be many CCIE .. oo Hey you!

re: improve lan speed ? [7:15225]
[demime could not interpret encoding binary - treating as plain text] This is tricky but try the following: Go to your local store and buy some super glue. Apply a generous amount of superglue to NIC A and affix it to NIC B. This (1/2)+(1/2) methodology will yield one full duplex combo card (please do not get greedy and try this with more than two NICs as your KITTY 5 wire may begin to melt). But wait, there's more -- The 10 to 100 transition is even easier, just look on the side of your NIC for the "Spoiler" upgrade slot. While I am far too addle-minded to understand the complex aerodynamic issues involved, I have been told by my good friend H. Simpson that the spoiler upgrade allows the card to transfer data at a far faster rate without subjecting your server to the risk of becoming unstable and possibly flipping over right in the middle of your datacenter. This is what the old people used to call an "abend" (and it it most frightening for all but the most grizzled NOC vets). Using some of the glue leftover from step 1, obtain and apply a Spoiler (preferably made out of balsa wood) to the new and improved nic combo card and then place it back in the machine. You will soon be well on your way to packet nirvana. .. how to change from half duplex to full duplex, and how to change NIC from 10 to 100 This email was sent through the free email service at http://www.anonymous.to/ To report misuse of this service, please contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=15225&t=15225 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: IT'S NOT A FLOOR WAX, IT'S A DESSERT TOPPING! [7:16843]
[demime could not interpret encoding binary - treating as plain text] Hence the common maritime vernacular term "any port in a storm" (not to be confused with the roughly parallel networking vernacular term "any port in a [broadcast] storm") It sure would sound silly to seek out "any interface in a storm." (Though probably not as silly as this thread which may have greatly exceeded its TTL) -- And if I use a word that sounds like "too", how do you know if I'm saying to, two, or two? Context!! If you say port, I might think you're either referring to a place where boats tie up to docks or you might be discussing wine. Or you could be "porting" software from one platform to another. Then again, if I'm chatting with my neighbor in the next cubicle over, are we interfacing or porting? Interfacing, I hope. If we're porting my wife will kill me! What about GUIs? They're not physical, they're logical. The point is that context is everything and if you refer to the physical connector as either an interface or a port, we'll all understand what you're referring to. Ok, enough of that thread (or is it string??) ;-) John >>> "Peter Slow" 8/22/01 1:47:40 PM >>> I am not without grammatical error. never said i was.

[7:16843] Interface: the place at which independent and often unrelated systems meet and act on or communicate with each other Port: a hardware interface by which a computer communicates with another device or system So who really decided which was more correct--interface or port?

Gigabit Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-GE) (7100 and 7200VXR only) The single port Gigabit Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-GE) provides a Gigabit Ethernet connection for the Cisco 7200 series router. 2. Verify the IP Address of the Router Ethernet Port To verify the IP address, enter the show interface e0 command on the command line.
