Re: Internet Router? [7:33639]
Scott, we just replaced our 7204 w/128 MB with a 7505 256 to handle dual DS3s. At last glimpse there were 103,000 routes. This upgrade was for future impacts. The 7204 has been reallocated to handle another DS3 all by itself. Hope this helps...just my .02 Scott Nawalaniec wrote: Hello Everybody, I just want to run this by everyone for their input from experience. Scenario: I'm looking for a Cisco router that will be providing Internet connectivity running BGP and that will be able to handle the capacity of 2 PTP T1's to the Internet.

My choice would be a 3640 for future T1 expandability and/or a HSSI port. Thank you for the input.

Re: Have CCNA v1. Want to move onto CCNP. [7:32569]
MrSpiffy, Good news!, the CCNA is good for 3 years instead of 2. My certificate from Cisco states valid through September 16 2003 and I passed the exam in 2000. If you were in the undertaking of CCNP and your CCNA expires then you would have to re-cert CCNA Get the CCNP and you will just need to pass the re-cert exam on that from here on out..

I've been on the cisco site and it mentions the fact that I require a current valid CCNA to move onto the CCNP track. I have a few questions: 1. When will my CCNA expire? Im guessing in 6 months time as I once heard that CCNA is valid for 2 yrs. 2. If my CCNA expires in 6 months does this mean I have to complete any one of the CCNP modules within the next 6 months for me to still be allowed to go for CCNP without having to do CCNA v2? Or does it mean i have to complete all 4 CCNP exams within the next 6 months prior to my CCNA expiring? i.e. just wondering what happens if my CCNA expires whilst im undertaking CCNP.

John, my idea is to make SURE that the 2924XL has th latest code I know it sounds a lil basic, but lately I have seen this curing my 2948s issues. John Neiberger wrote: We're having an interesting issue that just appeared recently. We have some Dell PCs running Netware 6 and new client software. We're not sure why, but if one of these machines is connected to a 2924XL switch, it regularly experiences a blue screen of death either at login or within 5 minutes of login. We have identical machines that operate fine if they're connected to our Bay switches or Cisco 1900 switches. Have any of you seen anything like this?? That makes no sense to me. The only difference I've been able to determine is that Spanning Tree is turned off on those particular Bay switches and 1900 switches, yet it is turned on on the 2924XL switches. So, perhaps these PCs are reacting badly to STP BPDU. Any thoughts? Our LAN people are doing some testing with different NIC software and Novell client software and I'll post back to the list if we determine the actual cause of the issue. But can you think of why it would only happen if they're connect to a 2924?

Richard, it really kind of depends on what kind of traffic etc will be going through. If a big corporate site with a 1000 plus users were using a DS3 fo internet and this corp had remote sites that were spokes. I would say go with a 7000 series of some sort. A nice modular 3600 series with a HHSI card and an Adtran CSU would get you there as well but is probably better for a smaller situation just my two cents but you may check Cisco's site for example designs to.

The instructor was an older person who was experienced and smart as a tack. I had to ask him (even with providers in the class) what the hell's up with frame relay bouncing around so much?, and he said They are screwing with things, making upgrades, etc, but they will never tell you that but not to blame the providers, its back to frame relay's need for maintnance, etc. Since we have had our own ATM cloud, (partial upgrade for some of our 24 entities) I have noticed the lack of issues compared to those still on frame through a provider. Hope this sheds light Ole Drews Jensen wrote: You are touching one of the right buttons Larry. I feel that customer service had gone down hill for several years now. I even had a discussion with a guy from my providers NOC this morning, where he had an attitude, and called me for not cooperating with them.

However, my problem this morning with a downed circuit between two Houston offices, they told me was caused by a cut on a SONET ring in Dallas. I questioned that, and asked him to explain how that was possible, and he got rude and I could hear him discuss with a colleague that they were wasting their time on me. I am not a SONET expert, but if two offices has a PVC on a metro ring, they should not be affected by a SONET problem in another city - or am I wrong here ???

Re: Need BCRAN latest Dumps! [7:28236]
I found that in the CCNP track, dumps were not necessary to pass. It was kind of like a college course with concepts and lots of basic theory application. You just had to commit to studying the material either way or you risk failing due to % of possible questions. The materials are easily learnable and not so in depth, just the beginning brushings of the deep concepts. In my everyday duties, I find that the things I REALLY run into are what counts. Like multi vendor equipment working together...etc, real challenges, not What is the North American ISDN standard? type BS and even the CCIE is a 1 product certification. In essence, its the real world experience that is making the $$$. Anyone who braindumps though will have a case of dirt-and-pebble mouth from falling on their face anyway. I do have an appreciation for people who really learn the material, because I have seen them be effective in situations due to the fact that they were up to date on the current technologies and fresh from their training and studying. These folks did not have the most experience, but they were good troubleshooters and well trained. Just my .02 Cheers! Tom Lisa wrote: I knew we were going to get in trouble with this thread!

Re: Can someone tell me what the spoofing below means [7:28091]
Hey Bob, see below of Cisco's explanation, but essentially you are having BRI0/0 stay awake to keep route tables active. Everything is good if this is what you are intending, as we do at my employer. Routing Once defined, interesting packets must be routed properly for a call to be initiated. The routing process depends on two things: routing table entries and an up interface over which to route packets. Interfaces - up/up (spoofing) In order for packets to be routed to and through an interface, that interface must be up/up as seen in a show interfaces output: Montecito# show interfaces ethernet 0 Ethernet0 is up, line protocol is up Hardware is Lance, address is . . . What happens to a dialer interface that is not connected? If protocol is not up and running on the interface, the implication is that the interface itself will not be up. Routes which rely on that interface will be flushed from the routing table, and traffic will not be routed to that interface. The result is that no calls would be initiated by the interface. The solution to counter this possibility is to allow the state up/up (spoofing) for dialer interfaces. Any interface can be configured as a dialer interface. For example, a Serial or Async interface could be made into a dialer by adding the command dialer in-band or dialer dtr to the interface's configuration. These lines are unnecessary for interfaces that are by nature a dialer interface (BRIs and PRIs). The output for a show interface will look like this: Montecito# show interfaces bri 0 BRI0 is up, line protocol is up (spoofing) Hardware is BRI Internet address is . . . In other words, the interface pretends to be up/up so that associated routes will remain in force and so that packets can be routed to the interface. There are circumstances under which a dialer interface will not be up/up (spoofing). The show interface output may show the interface as being administratively down: Montecito# show interfaces bri 0 BRI0 is administratively down, line protocol is down Hardware is BRI Internet address is . . . Administratively down merely means that the interface has been configured with the command shutdown. This is the default state of any router interface when the router is booted for the very first time. To remedy this, use the interface configuration command no shutdown.

Hope this helps and I saw the CCNP Ciscopress library for 89.99 at Amazon.com a few days ago. Best of luck in the journey!

Re: WOULD HAVING MCSE GREATLY HELP CISCO CAREER????? [7:23332]
Jason, this is one of the best questions I have seen in a while!... The reason is I do have my CCNP and CCDP as well as MCSE 4.0 (With Win2k knowledge) and have been in countless scenarios where (in my full time job), the things I know about Microsoft have led me right to the problem even though they (users, mgrs) all claim Network Problem. Just the other day two load balancing 2k servers were spewing multicasts and bringing down network resources like U.S. Jet Fighters on Taliban bunkers. It was this knowledge and the sniffer that got the answer and made me look like I was on top. Also (part time side job). All of the small business consulting I am doing is requiring the Whole Picture type consulting. I am able to provide MCSE, CCNP, CCDP and sometimes A+ type advice at a pretty penny, and what makes the penny shine most brightly is the all-in-one package they experience.

Excellent Paul!, and obviously they did not realize who they were messing with. We the USA, ones with Positive Atitudes!, Silly Fire Drill Policies!, The abilities to utlize 5000 pound bombs!, and most of all come back spririt! Paul Holloway wrote: Copy of letter by: Joe Vela Shriners Hospital for Children-Houston Here is an interesting perspective on what happened September 11. Some good news from all of this: By now everyone has been hearing the death toll rise and reports of the destruction from the terrorist attacks on the US. These were deplorable acts that we will never forget. But now is a time to look at the other side of the numbers coming out of New York, Washington and Pennsylvania. The sad but somewhat uplifting side that the mainstream media has not reported yet the SURVIVAL rates and some positive news about the attacks. *** The Buildings *** The World Trade Center - The twin towers of the World Trade Center were places of employment for some 50,000 people. With the missing list of just over 5,000 people, that means 90% of the people targeted survived the attack. A 90% on a test is an 'A'. The Pentagon - Some 23,000 people were the target of a third plane aimed at the Pentagon. The latest count shows that only 123 lost their lives. That is an amazing 99.5% survival rate. in addition, the plane seems to have come too low, too early to affect a large portion of the building. On top of that, the section that was hit was the first of five sections to undergo renovations that would help protect the Pentagon from terrorist attacks. It had recently completed straightening and blast proofing, saving untold lives. This attack was sad, but a statistical failure. *** The Planes *** American Airlines Flight 77 This Boeing 757 that was flown into the outside of the Pentagon could have carried up to 289 people, yet only 64 were aboard. Luckily 78% of the seats were empty. American Airlines Flight 11 This Boeing 767 could have had up to 351 people aboard, but only carried 92. Thankfully 74% of the seats were unfilled. United Airlines Flight 175 Another Boeing 767 that could have sat 351 people only had 65 people on board. Fortunately it was 81% empty. United Airlines Flight 93 This Boeing 757 was one of the most uplifting stories yet. The smallest flight to be hijacked with only 45 people aboard out of a possible 289 had 84% of its capacity unused. Yet these people stood up to the attackers and thwarted a fourth attempted destruction of a national landmark, saving untold numbers of lives in the process. *** In Summary *** Out of potentially 74,280 Americans directly targeted by these inept cowards, 93% survived or avoided the attacks. That's a higher survival rate than heart attacks, breast cancer, kidney transplants and liver transplants - all common, survivable illnesses. The Hijacked planes were mostly empty, the Pentagon was hit at it's strongest point, the overwhelming majority of people in the World Trade Center buildings escaped, and a handful of passengers gave the ultimate sacrifice to save even more lives. Pass this information on to those in fear and the media. Don't fear these terrorists. The odds are against them.

Kevin Wigle wrote: If I recall properly, these folks have gone through a few company names. I think they used to be Fore Systems. A few years back I purchased their cbt's for ICRC and ACRC. I was just starting my Cisco studies in those days. At the time I was a Banyan Vines guy (CBE/CBI) and an NT guy (MCSE) with a smattering of a few Unixes. I was very disappointed with the material. The presentation was very glizty and appealing but there were many problems with the validity of the content. I forwarded over a dozen screen captures of incorrect information to them over the course of a month. Finally I was at the point where I was asking for some compensation for the shoddy material. They eventually agreed that the material had flaws (how do you disagree with a screen capture?) and said had I complained within 30 days I could have returned the CDs with a full refund. This of course they reminded me at the 5 week mark. I failed my first attempt at ICRC using their material. I was woefully un-prepared although I could ace their practice tests. The exam at the time had lots of material that the courses did not cover. They did send me a exam voucher. I sold the material on eBay and got some of my cost back.

Congrats Ole Drews!, You have a lot of respectable experience and now CCNP to boot! Many good wishes.. for you and your family :-) In the end they are what count the most!.. Ole Drews Jensen wrote: Here's a thanks to all of you who directly and indirectly helped me pass my CCNP exams. I passed CIT this morning as the last one. The CIT exam was the one I felt best prepared for, but passed with a lower score that any of the others. I felt that the questions were worded very badly compared to the other exams, and I was asked questions about specific details that I did not recall having read in any of my books. Anyway, I passed - so I'm happy! A little advise to those of you who are on the first step on the CCNP ladder: 1) Read at least two books for each exam, unless you feel very sure you know everything you need to. A good rule that I have used, is to get a study guide with good reviews. You can search, find and check for those on http://www.amazon.com. A study guide usually uses an easier language that you can better understand if you're reading about the topic for the first time. As a second book, I like to buy a CiscoPress course or exam book, because they are more detail specific regarding what they want you to know for the exam. I do not recommend CiscoPress course or exam books as the only book unless you are good at reading and understanding technical explanations. They can be a little hard to understand if you're not really sure what they're trying to tell you. 2) Download the Cisco exams from Boson. Take all three test exams, and then buy the full version of the one you score lowest in. 3) Look on the Internet for other good helping tools or descriptions. For the CIT, I recommend using the Flash Cards that Priscilla has available (http://www.priscilla.com), and for the BCMSN exam, I recommend my own applications to help you train the commands on the Catalyst 5000 and calculate Multicast layer 2 and 3 addresses. Those two applications can be found by following my RouterChief link below. Now on to CSS1 starting Monday or Tuesday when I expect the book to arrive.

Set the NIC and switch port to 100 half manual and check the results. king kaung wrote: Hi All, I have big problem with our apple machines. Last week, I replaced my old 3Com switches to cisco 3524 switches. Then most of my apple machine can not see each other(cannot access appleshare)but it can see and can access PC Servers. I try to configure the speed and duplex according apple's NIC specification on individual ports. But some of the apple machine still cannot see. I put those Mac machines back to 3Com switch and it works again. We don't have zone setting on apple machines.The protocols are all default.Our network is flat network and no subnet, no VLAN. Anything I miss out to configure on my Cisco switches? Or any special setting for apple machines I need to set?

Re: Cisco Certifications for Sale ? [7:20747]
I cant imagine anyone who buys a certifcation being much of a threat nor able to support or configure their way out of a wet paper sack, nor slime though an interview Bruce Williams wrote: There is a thread being discussed on Cisco Network Professional Discussion page about Cisco Certifications such as CCNA, CCDA, CCNP, CCDP and CCIE being sold in India and Pakistan for the cost of the exam. Several people in the Forum have confirmed it and have even said it is common knowledge. Please tell me it is not true. I have worked very hard to achieve the CCNA, CCDA, CCNP and CCDP and now I am working even harder to prepare for the CCIE Lab. I would be highly upset to discover that Cisco is tolerating this. I really dont see what value the certification holds if it can be bought this easily.

Re: Pong Heartbeat [7:16337]
Maybe pong is a new kind of ping reply. kinda like the way the dot used to bounce back frm the other side of the screen. We have some heartbeat situations with clusters ;-) Priscilla Oppenheimer wrote: Was this by any chance one of those guys (and it usually is guys, sorry) that puffs himself up and acts like he knows a whole bunch because he can spout tekkie terms? ;-) Heartbeat was an Ethernet II technology. It wasn't available on Ethernet I, so there were some compatibility issues. IEEE supports it also and calls it SQE. When you install an external transceiver you have to configure the SQE test signal. It should be disabled if the transceiver is attached to a hub. The purpose of the signal is to test the collision detection electronics of the transceiver. It used to cause all sorts of troubleshooting issues and would be the number one thing someone who learned Ethernet 15 years ago would tell you to look into. Pong was a very cool video game. Please don't knock it. ;-) Could he have meant ping?? Or, maybe Spong? Spong monitors system performance. I don't think it has anything to do with Cisco though. I guess it could monitor a few things on a Cisco router maybe.

The box was left plain view from the street. Apparently, that's UPS's policy. Unless the shipper indicates adult signature required, UPS can just drop your package at the front door and leave. There's the fact that since it was in plain view of the street and since it was in a box that would be very enticing to anyone passing by, that was my first concern... but the other fact is that it had just finished raining - and it was very likely we could get another storm shortly (since it's supposed to rain all week). Just what I need -- a soggy investment! If you're going to be buying equipment, I really don't recommend shipping via UPS. When I called UPS to complain, I was told that UPS gets more complaints that packages aren't left because they require signature than complaints over packages being left without getting a signature so they're not likely to change their policy any time soon (however why would they get complaints about packages not being left if their policy is that they can leave packages without signature?)
