RE: IP Address Calculation [1:1010]

2000-11-23 Thread JL

It's important to remember your default mask for all 3 address ranges when
looking at a question like this. A class B address has a default mask of 16
bits, so if " You have an IP address of 172.16.4.58 with a 12-bit subnet
mask." you would add an additional 12 bits to the default mask and from
there determine your valid hosts. 16 bits (default mask) + 12 bits
(additional bits) = 28 = 255.255.255.240; then 256 - 240 = 16. You will have
valid ranges in multiples of 16, 1-16, 17-32, 33-48, 49-64, etc... you do
have to remember to leave out the high and low addresses  (network and
broadcast) leaving 14 valid host id's per subnet. Using a 172.16.4.58/28
notation would accomplish the same thing and is just an easier way to say "I
have a class B address with a 12 bit subnet mask". I personally struggled
with subnetting before it finally clicked, it's just important to remember
that there are only just so many combinations available. I would suggest
approaching this from multiple different angles until you find the one that
clicks for you, once it does you'll be amazed at how simple it all seems.

Group,

That's pretty confusing. (IMHO). If we are going to refer to subnet masks
with the /30 notation, then we need to stick to it. How would we know if
someone meant with, or without the default mask included?

 Hi,

 It's important to understand the wording

 172.16.4.58 is a Class B address.  A subnet is the 'borrowed bits' from
the
 host portion of the address. In this case it is stated as being 12bits

 So by default it has a 16 bit network mask a Class a has 8 and a Class C
24

   255  255   00
       = 16Bit netmask
 |---| |---|
  network  host

   255  255  255  240
       = 16bit netmask + 12bit subnet mask
+
 4bit host portion
 |---| |---||--|
  networksubnet  host


 172.16.4.58 255.255.255.240 is the ip address and network mask

 (anyone got a better way of explaining this bit?)
 As networks must start on a border of the subnet that they are divisible
by
 (anyone got a better way of explaining this bit?)

  we can figure out the the network address for this IP address with this
 subnet mask starts at 172.16.4.48 (this is not a host address it's a
 network/cable/segment address) first available host address is 172.16.4.49
 your network size is 16 IP addresses so counting from and including
 172.16.4.48 you reach 172.16.4.63.  The last address of the network is
 discarded as being a host address as well as this will be used as the
 broadcast address for the network so the available IP's assignable to
hosts
 are 172.16.4.49-62

 That explanation probably sounds as clear as mud but hopefully it's
helpful.
 It's important to read the questions carefully for the syntax they use and
 how it is applied to the subject.

 Trav.

RE: NT School CCNP Boot Camp

2000-11-21 Thread JL

I attended a CCNA boot camp (taught by Todd Lammle, but not sponsored by NT
Schools) in January '99 and found it to be very good and informative. But, I
would think that unless you have adequate background before attending the
class that there is just too much information to be learned in too short of
a time period for you to come away as a CCNP(I found this to be the case for
myself after attending the CCNA boot camp).
Any training is a good addition to anyone's knowledge base, but I certainly
would not expect to acquire  CCNP level knowledge in just 16 days.

RE: T3- DS3

2000-11-21 Thread JL



a T-3 
is equal to 28 T-1's. Your question prompted some interesting 
reading.

From 
the McGraw Hill "Voice and Data Communications handbook":
A T1 
is the first level of T-carrier system. A DS1 is the multiplexed digital signal, 
first level, inside the T-carrier.

From 
the Lan Times "Encyclopedia of Networking":
Digital Signal (DS) refers to the rate and the format of digital 
telecommunications circuits. DS isrelated to the T designations, but DS 
refers to signal rates and formatting while T designations are usually applied 
to equipment.

So, 
from what I have read the main difference is what the name is being applied to 
and not much more. I would be interested in what others on the list have to say 
though and I will inquire with the engineers I work with for their take on the 
differences this evening while at work.

RE: !H !H !H!H

2000-11-20 Thread JL

!H simply means that the host is unreachable. Whether this is because of an
access list or that the host is disconnected or turned off is left to the
imagination of the person receiving  the !H notification. Odds are that
unless you have physical access to the host in question you will not ever
learn why the host was unreachable.

RE: HELP!! Confused beginner. [1:966]

2000-11-19 Thread JL

I currently work in a NOC and fail to see how it is a waste of the cert. I
troubleshoot a wide variety of equipment (remotely and with site techs on
the phone) relating to voice and data issues. I think this will in the long
run tend to make me a more well rounded person technically and allow me to
be a greater value to anyone who employs me in the future (it will also
enhance my paycheck significantly). I compare this to my previous
incarnation as a server jockey (network admin) where we took a very vendor
centric approach (similarity = ease of management, less problems = less
marketability due to lack of diversity). I grant you that all NOC positions
will not have the varied type of interaction that I get, but I think that
getting in the door and gaining some experience is the important thing, not
where you get in at.

I'm afraid you won't have much luck finding an office type job that
makes use of a Cisco cert.  The closest thing I can think of in my

data center, but that would be a waste of a good opportunity to make a
better salary actually working on the equipment, besides it gets awful old

The shortest possible abbreviation for "show run" would be "sh ru". If you

RE: CLI help

2000-11-18 Thread JL

The shortest possible abbreviation for "show run" would be "sh ru". If you
need to do this often you could also up the up arrow or ctrl-p. When typing
in commands you need only type enough letters so that IOS no longer finds
the command to be ambiguous... like copy run star for copy
running-configuration startup-configuration or sh ru for show run. If you
are unsure about how many letters you need to type so that the command is no
longer ambiguous, type out part of the command and then a question
mark...like co?  for copy.

Hello friends

Is there any way that I can reduce repetitive typing of the same command buy
specifying a shorter word.

For example instead of typing
"sho run", can I just type "sr"
Is there any way of doing this in the CLI

Please let me know

Thanks

RE: I passed CCNP. Some Wisdom

2000-11-16 Thread JL

It sounds like the market you are living in is oversaturated. Having similar
experiences while living in Des Moines, Iowa, my solution was to go where
the work is (in my case Kansas City) It has been stated by numerous people
on this list previously and not to beat a dead horse...but, early in your
career as an insert job title here it is to your advantage to be mobile. I
was originally able to get into the IT field with only experience and no
certifications because of this and now have a position that allows me to
troubleshoot voice and data circuits Cisco, nortel, Marconi, and Fore
equipment. The company I am working for provides me with an extensive
library of CBT's to choose from at my leisure. They also send their
personall out to classroom training on a regular basis. This coupled with
the numerous opportunities for advancement and cross training within the
company (tuition reimbursement and stock options too!) made this an easy
choice for me to come on board with them, even though it required me to move
for the 3rd time in 3 years. If you are are relatively new in the field
and/or lacking a degree (much like I am), you want to get in and start
working yesterday (of course, today will do also), I would suggest you adopt
the mantra that I have. "mobility=advancement/opportunity". If you can
adapt this sentiment (and not all can, we all have different circumstances),
finding employment with your new insert brand name here certification will
be greatly simplified. FYI, in my case the CCNA was what attracted their
attention to me (achieved while working on MCSE). Good luck to all the job
seekers out there and DO try to be as mobile as you can...it will most
certainly help you in your search.

This is a point that I would like to make emphasis on.  Here in Michigan, I
know many people who have the standard respected certs (A+/MCSE/CCNA) and
are averaging $55-65000 a year.  Note that most of these people have these
certs and 5 or so years of experience.  In California, the same jobs tend to
net you $75-85000 a year, but you have to consider that the cost of living
is incredibly high out there.  Another point that needs to be made (and the
wall that I and a friend of mine have run into numberous times) is that
employers (at least in Michigan) still need you to have a degree.  I walked
into an interview with my A+, MCP, I-Net+, Network+ and 6 years of real
world experience and go turned down because I was 16 credits from having my
degree.  The interviewer was kind enough to let me know that I qualified in
every thing they ask for except the degree, saying that a minimum of a
bachelors is needed.  None the less, the person they did hire @ $61,000 a
year had 6 months experience at an ISP and only his bachelors.  This just
goes to show that the piece of paper still needs something.

Denis


 You will not make 70 grand a year just for getting
 your MCSE. You will not get 90 grand a year just for your CCNP. And I
 doubt you will get $120 grand a year when you get your CCIE. Somewhere
 around half of this is realistic for the MCSE or CCNP. The only possible
 things that will get you close this amount of money is an added college
 degree, many years of experience or living somewhere that the cost of
 living is double compared to the rest of the country. Sorry if this ruins
 your dreams of getting rich quick, but is better someone told you before

RE: MCSE or CCNA or both [1:763]

2000-11-11 Thread JL

I'm not so sure, myself within 48 hours of updating my resume online to
reflect my CCNA I received a job offer. Without having both certifications
no one would talk to me about employment (this with 3 years experienceas a
network admin/help desk)Of course when going for entry level positions it
certainly helps if you are or can be mobile (i.e. have the ability to
relocate). I moved to Kansas City to take a position working for Sprint on
their ION platform as a Network Operations Specialist. I get to learn ATM,
troubleshoot Nortel PVG's, Lucent Stinger DSLAMs, Cisco 12012GSR
routers...etc... None of this would have been possible without my ability to
move and my CCNA (having an MCP was an added bonus). Good Luck all looking
for work (keep an eye on Sprint for openings BTW)and once again thanks to
all on this who spend their own time to tutor those of who are climbing the
ranks.

There is another forum here :Jobs@groupstudy.
In the past days I remember seeing several postings of new CCNA holders who
were not getting any job offers with their new certification. BUT who knows
what THEIR experience overall was like??
  I believe that from what I have seen a CCNA will NOT guarantee you a job
(neither will an MCSE)and that in the end your all around
knowledge/experience is what will count. Hiring managers are generally smart
enough to know that just because someone has an MCSE or CCNA does not
necessarily mean they can really do the job. Many conduct interviews with
numerous technical questions to test your level of expertise. The best you
can hope for is that the CCNA/MCSE will win you an interview. We all hope
that a company will hire us and give us the opportunity to get the
experience to warrant that high paycheck.
If you find such a company please let me know as I will go work for them
also.
  Of course if you have the experience to do MCSE and/or CCNA level work you
can probably get along without either certification.

2000-09-06 Thread JL

What you are proposing is not help, but a method of cheapening the
certification for those of us who have worked and studied hard to achieve
our goals. A person will find greater worth in something if they have to
work to attain it, instead of having it given to them. You cheapen the
certifications and anyone you "assist" in this manner (yourself included).
This list IS about helping others, not about helping each other to "cheat"
more effectively. I find your commentary about about Mr. Haun to be as
offensive to me, as his language was to you (FWIW, I do not approve of his

RE: CCNA 507 flashcards

2000-08-30 Thread JL

There are also some pretty good flash cards included on the cd accompanying
Todd's CCNA book (the newer one for the 507 test). I also found a website
that does knowledge drills (kind of an online version of flash cards I
suppose), it is subscription based but I felt it was inexpensive (cost is a
major factor for me, being unemployed right now).

Quoting "Fowler, Joey" [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Jesse,

   I wasn't able to find any for the CCNA, what I did which was helpful
 in my studying, was I would read the book the first time, just to get an
 overview, I didn't spend a lot of time studying every detail, but the
 second
 time around I had a stack of Index Cards, and I would go through a section
 at a time and write out my own, for instance on one side I would write
 "previous command", and on the other side put up arrow or Ctrl+p. While
 this
 took time just having created the cards myself was a tremendous study aid.
 I
 could then turn around and use them on my 2 hour commute!

RE: Book sugession - CCNA

2000-08-30 Thread JL




The 
main difference between Todd's 407 book and the 507 book is the depth that 
it goes into vlans and isdn configuration. If you can find a source to make up 
for those differences the 407 book should suffice. I also used the Exam Cram 
books for a refresher, Todd's 507 book, the ICND book and a couple routers here 
at home. All of the above allowed me to pass the exam with a respectable 
score.

With 3 months of experience what do you expect???  $150k/yr?  You still need
to "prove" yourself.  No offense, but the certs you have aren't very hard to
get.  If you get overtime, that is a pretty cool...a lot of places won't pay
OT these days.  Give yourself a year or two in the business.  After that
experience, plus a CCNP you should be closer to $60-$70k /yr.

Keep chugging along!
