Re: Help Pix 501 [7:64278]
Well, if you wanted to bypass some of the secuirty that the PIX provides your network, you could permit a telnet session between the internet and an inside device on which you have shell (or EXEC) access. and then Telnet to the pix from there. For Example You---Internet--PIX--Router--Inside Network 1. Telnet from You to Router PIX Command- access-list outside_access_in permit tcp any any eq telnet PIX Command- static (inside,outside) tcp interface telnet telnet netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0 2. Log into your router as normal 3. Telnet from the router to the PIX. As the router is connected to the inside interface, this will work. But please if you are going to do this consider using SSH instead of telnet at the very least between your station and the Router.

Re: myth about ccna salary??? [7:5925]
As an employee of one of those training centers, I would like to warn anyone considering one of them to beware of schools that list salaries in their advertisments. The last I checked Institutions that are accredited by the US Department of Education are not permitted to make promises with regard to future salary. They are not even allowed to allude to it. So if you are thinking about enrolling in a school which advertises That if you take our xxx course, you can earn $ you should be suspect. Also beware of schools that offer Placement guarntees, as it is impossible to guarantee that you will get a job unless the school has an internship program which they consider a placement. J Craig Columbus wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... For those who came into the IT industry during the mid to late 1990s, these last few years have been eye opening. Let's face it...if you could spell MCSE in 1997, you could easily land a job earning $70k or more per year. This amazing earning power was an anomaly that burst with the dotcom bubble. Historically, jobs that paid significantly more than average (engineering, medicine, law, etc.) required a great deal of study and knowledge in the chosen field. When it got to the point that just about anyone with a heartbeat could pass certain certification tests by rote memorization of braindumps, two things happened: 1) Certified people became a commodity and supply exceeded demand. As anyone who took even an intro economics course can tell you, excess supply leads to falling prices. In this case, the price (salary) required to obtain the commodity (certified persons) took a nose dive. 2) Companies realized that certifications were no predictor of ability or performance. Rather, they are at best a baseline indicator that the person has been exposed to certain ideas and concepts. Today, we're dealing with a slow economy and an excess of qualified IT labor. Those who get jobs in today's market are those with the better qualifications (experience, education, and certifications), those who are willing to work for a salary greatly reduced from what they could expect to earn even two years ago, and those who are lucky. The only places touting the ability of new CCNAs to earn $60k per year are those training centers that base their very existence on luring people to very expensive classes with the illusory promise of graduating with a high-paying job in hand. The bottom line is that there's no substitution for education and hard work when trying to get a job in today's IT world. Are certifications still important? Yes. If for no other reason that many companies use them as a basic screening tool to decide whose resume gets read and whose gets passed. Are certifications enough to guarantee a good job? Absolutely not. Many people don't like to hear this, but the time is approaching when IT workers are going to be held to the same standards as other career fields. You're going to need an education along with the certification if you're going to get your foot in the door in the future. Finally, you want to know how to earn a six figure salary in IT. The way you do this is to love your work. You're dealing with a highly dynamic field where today's hot skill can be tomorrow's ticket to the unemployment line (ask the COBOL programmers). This means that the learning NEVER stops. If you're not studying the latest technology every day, you're going to find yourself useless very quickly. The work can be frustrating and the hours can be very long. Have you ever noticed how the IT guys are often the first in and the last to leave? And when the CEO's car is at the golf course on Saturday, the IT guy's car is at the office working on an upgrade? If you don't love technology, and the challenges that come with it, you're going to have a very hard time staying in the field long enough to reach the six figure mark. On the other hand, if you love technology, and you love your work, you'll find that over the years, your skills and knowledge will increase, and the salary will come.

Re: Question? [7:61716]
I have 2 thoughts on this. The first is that on my test rack; where I'm reverse telnetting into the console ports; If I power cycle certain models of router my telnet session is dropped. (MC3810, and 3620 that I'm aware of.) I can only assume that this is teh same thing that happening to the modem.

I've found these type devices to be a life saver for remote offices, or co-located servers where you need to power cycle a server and no one is available to push a button for you. The X-10 Boxes are reasonably reliable, and I haven't had too many problems with them over the years. But there are better more expensive devices available for critical applications.

From the IRS Website: (http://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/page/0,,id%3D105559,00.html -- watch for wrap) Generally, you cannot deduct education and training expenses for yourself, your spouse (if married) or your dependent as a business expense unless the education or training: a.. Maintains or improves a skill required in a trade or business you are currently engaged in, a.. Meets the express requirements of your employer, or a.. Meets the requirements of law or regulations which are conditions of continuing your employment. There are 2 caveats that I should point out. 1. If you were reimbursed for the certifcation you cannot deduct it. Unless you were repaid in a subsequent tax year than when you spent the money. Then you would be to deduct from the first year, and then pay for it in the second year. 2. If you are getting certified to obtain a raise or to get another job, the expenses are not deductable.

Re: Off Topic but interesting - RS networking future? [7:59467]
I would have to disagree with you on some of your points. More often than not predictions turn out to be wrong. Take Wall street for a bad example. There's no doubt in my mind that major changes will occur in the IT industry. Of the dozens of new technologies that become available each year, some of them will most certainly mature. Most of them will fail, and if you could tell me exactly which ones would succeed then there's no point in working at all. Just invest in the successful ones, rake in the money, and do IT work for free because you love it. I agree with you on some points though. In the US, I doubt there's going to be a buildout boom anytime soon, and RS skills may not be as profitable now as they were just a few years ago. But by no means do I think that the skills are not valuable. For the next couple of years I believe that in order to prosper you'll need to develop other skills (as with every industry, but especially with IT) . The skillset that Doctors and Lawyers possessed 20 years ago is all but obsolete now; Which is why they are required to continue their education with continuing education courses. Remember that most of the world is still underdeveloped. Take China for instance. if just 1% china went out and bought a computer and hoped to connect to the internet, those RS skills would be heavily in demand, throw in all the developing former Iron Curtain nations, and the continents of Africa and much of South America, and you have plenty of RS job openings. I have full faith in the power of capitalism, I'm certain that eventually the undeveloped countries will develop, and they are going to need qualified, experienced people to help them out. Security is hot this year, and next year it could be something else. Working in the IT industry means that you will need to rebuild you entire skillset every few years. I believe that Cisco realizes that, which is why recertification is so important. It won't surprise me at all if the CCIE tracks appear to converge a bit more in the next 3 to 6 years. Gone are the days when you started your career and retired with the same skillsets, and I wouldn't want it any other way. Jarett nrf wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Marc Thach Xuan Ky wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... A few points: When I was fresh in the IT industry (over 20 years ago) the old-timers who had been working maybe four years already would tell me that there was no future in programming, after all they said, who uses a chauffeur now that cars are so easy to drive? Cars need very little maintenance now, there are still plenty of mechanics because there are more cars. Phone companies still employ a lot of telephone engineers, large corporates often have on-site telephone staff. There are more phone companies now. Voice is a commodity. Here in London during the 80's property boom, electricians and plumbers on the large contracts were being paid a lot more than any network engineer I heard of at the time. I would just add that many times (actually, more often than not, predictions actually turn out to be correct). For example, decades ago, people predicted a decline in the number of jobs in farming. And indeed the number of jobs in farming declined substantially. People also predicted a huge decline in the number of jobs in old-school manufacturing - steel, mining, etc. And indeed that came to pass. And even for those jobs that didn't decline, there was significant change in what they did. Mechanics can't just know how to fix carburetors, now they have to understand fuel-injection. IT has always been an industry of change. What was hot at one point of time may not be hot at another. IBM mainframe skill was in big demand back in the 70's, and it has been on a slow decline ever since. COBOL was also huge back then, and enjoyed a brief resurgence due to y2k, but is now declining. I believe R/S skill will fade into the background because quite simply not as many organizations are building out new networks anymore, nor do they really need to. The networks are built with most likely only incremental buildouts in the near-future, and so now the question is what are you going to do with the network. That is what is going to get you jobs. For those of you who are still waiting for another huge network buildout boom, well, sorry to tell you, but that train has left the station. rgds Marc Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=59467t=59467 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Off Topic but interesting - RS networking [7:59390]
This reminds me of a quote I heard once The only people who can afford to hire a plumber, are electricians. Maybe we should unionize like them. The international brotherhood of it workers? Jarett nrf wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Aaron Ajello wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... IMHO, comparing COBOL and mainframes to networking as a valuable, marketable skill set doesn't follow. COBOL was replaced by VB, C++, ASP and other languages. Mainframes were replaced by things like Windows, UNIX and Linux. I don't know of something that will replace networking. I'm not saying it's impossible, but the comparison doesn't seem right. Cisco could get replaced, but how is networking going to be replaced? Even if everything goes wireless, it's still all networked, no? Networking will be 'replaced' in the sense that it will fade into the background. Eventually, networking will be just as reliable as, say, electric power in your building. It will be just another utility. But when that happens, you really don't need engineers very much. You just plug something into a wall socket and it works. OK, if you wanna rewire a building or something, yeah you gotta call an electrician. But how many times does that happen? Several people have said R/S isn't such a valuable skill set anymore because people aren't building networks anymore. Maybe that's true, but it reminds me of what someone said when the machine gun was invented. He said it was so powerful and destructive that it would bring an end to war. also, didn't bill gates say one time that no one would ever need a hard drive bigger than 16meg, or something like that? I don't follow. If people aren't building networks anymore (and they are not for the total number of networks is actually decreasing now, mostly due to bankrupt providers getting liquidated), then that necessarily means less demand for network people. And even if the number of networks remained the same, that still implies less demand compared to a few years ago when networks were being built out. Let's face it. You need more people and more expertise to build a network than to maintain it. That's not to say that you don't need any expertise to maintain a network, because you obviously do, but you need less of it. And again, I would point to the fact that the many, dare I say the majority of predictions, actually turn true. Would you tell your kid today to pursue a career in, say, steel? I didn't think so. But, hey, you could use the same arguments to say that nobody can predict the future with certainty, therefore steel might be a great career, etc. etc. And indeed it might be a great career. But, really now, what are the odds? It seems like every time I pick up a tech magazine it's talking about ip telephony, internet connected toasters, high speed web enabled cell phones, etc. yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what someone is going to say- the infrastructure is already in place to connect your toaster to the internet. But won't more and more internet connected devices necessitate more people who know how to connect those things and make them work together quickly, reliably and smoothly? Not necessarily - not if everything is truly plug+play and reliable. Ease of use and reliability implies less need for expertise. Let's be perfectly honest. The fact that IP networks are still somewhat difficult to configure and also somewhat unreliable is actually kind of a good thing, because it means that companies need to keep network guys around. While we may say that we want a super-reliable and easy to use network, the fact is, we don't really want that. For example, consider this. The latest IT boom implied a massive increase in the use of electricity. But did that imply a giant boom for electricians? Hardly. The reason is simple. Electricity is, for the most part, plug and play, and reliable. You take all your new-fangled systems, plug them into the wall, and they work. OK, true, there was some increase in demand for electricians, especially for datacenters and whatnot, but the increase was mild. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not trying to bag on electricians. I have several friends who are electricians, and I respect their profession and their skill. I'm just using them as an example of the way I think things are eventually going to go in networking. There will still be jobs, but not as many as there are today, and the jobs that will be out there will be for higher-end people, with limited for the novices. Just like the way electricians are today. I think at this point in the evolution of info systems, the internet and networking it's premature to say anything has reached it's peak and is mature. Think of all the homes out there not connected to the internet. Think of all the companies out there

Re: passed cit. that's a wrap on ccnp [7:57741]
I Agree with you. CIT was probably the easiest for me as well. Routing was definately the hardest. For other studying for the CCNP i reccommend taking Routing as your 3rd test. I found myself referring back to my routing book often while studying for CIT as I had forgotten some of the fram formats and such. Jarett Mr Joshua wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... teh hardest? really? hm... I found it the easiest and routing the hardest. Anybody else?

Re: Question for CCDP [7:57667]
Well, Priscilla's Book covers the material. I had problems reading it though. I've gotten so used to reading poorly written technical books, that whenever I find a passage that is really readable I assume it's fluff and skip past it. Since most of her book is readable and well written, I found myself reading thorough it a couple of times. Seriously though Top-Down Network design is really helpful. These were the most difficult tests that I've taken. Jarett wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... What is the best book to buy for the CCDP test? Thanks.

Re: Multiple CCIE qualification exams then labs? [7:57019]
I believe that all the VoIP images require 64MB. Though VoFR, VoHDLC, and VoATM are supported w/ 32MB HulaJoe wrote in message news:200211130159.BAA28992;groupstudy.com... Hello All, I just purchased a 3810 to practice some Voice labs. I was hoping someone could answer a quick question for me. The 3810 I'm getting has 32 MB of RAM - Is this enough to run the 3810 as a VoIP GW ? Can someone give me some insight in regards to setting up the 3810 to support VoIP ? Thanks in advance!

[7:57019] Also posted at www.@!#$.com (apologies to readers of both) Folks I have a question that hopefully can lead to me receiving some good advice. Back in June (Just before I was laid off) I took and passed the CCIE security written exam. Since then I have been unsuccessfully seeking employment. Due in part to the cost, I have chosen not to book the lab yet and probably wont until I am back in work. Which leads me (finally :-) to my question. Would it be worthwhile to study for and take the routing and switching qualification exam and/or perhaps even a communications and services exam too (maybe the voice beta when it is released). Does anyone have any experience of how much commonality there is between the exam materials? Also, following on from that, how about the labs. Assuming I find myself back in employment in the not too distant future and can manage to afford it, would it be worth practicing for two or more CCIE labs at the same time and then booking the labs back to back (or at least close together)? I have a reasonable home lab that includes 3x2500, 3x4500, a 2600, a 3600, 2xMC3810, a 7500, 2xPix501 and cat 2820, etherswitch 2200 and 3920 (yeah,I purchased the last 2 a couple of months before the lab equipment changes were announced). So with the addition of a 3550 EMI (or 2 :- eek $$$) and some remote lab time I think I should be able to prepare for the lab exam(s) for any of the above. The real question is should I go ahead and go for multiple CCIE certs at once or is this just a really foolish idea. Thanks Peter Walker CISSP, CSS1, CIPTSS, CCNP, CCIP, CCDP.

Re: Decent modem for dial-up to Cisco routers [7:56202]
This doesn't really answer your question. But in the past, I've used USR modems connected to a remote reboot device (like an X10 or similar). When the modem stopped responding (ie. didnt answer the phone) the rebooter would pick up and powercycle the device.

Hello to all, Sorry for the off-topic but can anyone suggest a particular brand of modem that my company should sell to customers for dial-in access to Cisco routers. We've used USRobotics (various Couriers, Sportsters and 5686s), Zooms, Bocas, and Conexants. The USRobtics seems to need to be reset a lot (hard to do when no one is at the site), the Zooms tend to put 1720s in rommon mode when plugged in the console port, Bocas are old and loss their configs easily. Anyway, if anyone can write We use this modem and it's rock-solid each and every time than it would be greatly appreciated.
