Questions on Routers for my lab [7:2338]
I'm looking at a decent deal on three routers. Can somone tell me if one of the hub ports on a 2516 and a 2507 can be router to. I am assuming since the whole group is a hub the whole group acts as eth0 right. A router wouldn't be any good would without a LAN port of some sort?

Re: Cisco PIX vs Checkpoint FIrewall-1 [7:2878]
PIX goes up to layer 4, so it won't do things like URL filtering. Checkpoint (or other SW) can do higher layer protection but may not be as well at the lower layers (due to security holes in the OS, etc) Eugene ""Chuck Larrieu"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Asked sincerely, what advantages do you see in provisions PIX plus > checkpoint? > > Chuck > > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2001 2:47 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Cisco PIX vs Checkpoint FIrewall-1 [7:2878] > > It depends on your security policy , design and needs , generally what we > advice our > customers is checkpoint + pix together > > Hatim badr a icrit : > > > Hi , > > > > I would like to know the pluses and minuses of each product .

Re: Cisco PIX vs Checkpoint FIrewall-1 [7:2878]
Well I opened a can of worms with this one. I do know of web sense, I beleive I have read that Cisco is not going to be selling it in the future, someone correct me if I am wrong there. So far a properly configured PIX has never been beat, there have been news stories of PIX's that have been beat, but upon investigation there has been some config issue involved. So the recommended setup it to have more than one level that way if someone finds a hole in one layer, they hit another layer, this helps out if security hole happens to be found in any box, software or hardware as well as helps when there are any config mistakes that allow a hole. I hope I explained myself better this time.

Re: CCIE prep - review lab inventory and budget [7:3908]
So whats so special about the 3920? The only thing I see is Joken ring. I'm just starting my CCNP so IE is realistically a year out. Do you think with the rate companies are ditching joken ring gear it will still be on the test by then. Crapple talk has gone pretty much gone away.

Re: Ram in 2500 series [7:6187]
Not any memory, but memory that meets all the specs. I don't know for sure what all the specs are (someone told me it was parity memory). The 2500 wil do max of 16M. I dug through my parts box and started plugging in memory untill I found a 16M that worked. It makes sense that Cisco wouldn't take the time and money to design some memory when there are standards in place and all they have to do is look through a book and pick a standard type. So moust routers will take some kind of standard (as well as most other hardware, for example HP printers). The one thing though I would only want to try it in a lab not a production environment where you may need to call Cisco for support.

2500 rack mounts [7:6286]
I need a set of rack mounts for one of my Cisco 2500's for my lab rack. Anyone know a cheap place to buy them?

Re: OFF topic - Career as CCNP/CCDA [7:11806]
I'm small too, not quite as small as you but still in the same boat. I prefer to use my brian to fine more ceative ways to do the heavy work. You will find all kinds of shortcuts like putting two screws in the rack to balance the rack ears on to hold the weight while you put in the mounting screws, etc. You will also spend more time balancing a laptop hooked to the console port than you will lifting the equipment.

Re: Dead 2501 - further update [7:11865]
Its a hyperterm thing, play with the connection settings, emulation and such and it should start working. I've seen where Hyperterm is set to auto and it detects the emulation wrong and I have also seen where hyperterm is set correctly and is doesn't work unless set to auto. At very least download the free hyperterm upgrade, or better yet find a better term program (at leat thats what everyone says, I try not to rely on other programs since you can't take anything with you to a CCIE lab you might was well learn on the minimum) Eugene ""Dennis Laganiere"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > I hooked it up to my terminal server and it works regardless of the > HyperTerm settings.

Re: CCNP/CCIE Lab Equipment (cont.) [7:12194]
look for some of the odd models. I picked up a 2507 and a 2516 which are basically a 2501 and 2503 with a built in hub for $400 and $450.

Help on Laod balancing [7:25921]
I and at a new client who has two connections to the internet, one is a T1, and the other is a cable modem. They have the cable modem for backup, but it is only being connected to one web server at the moment so if the T1 fails they have to swap patch cords to make us of the cable modem. I was going to plug them both into a router and setup to load balance between the two, however the clinet wants to control how much load goes where. They want to T1 primarily used for the developers and the cable modem primarily for the office staff. Can I control who gets what connection? My though was to set up two vlans on their switches and set one connection in each vlan, then a router between vlans as a higher cost path. Anyone have comments.
