RE: Spanning Tree Question - Root Port Selection

2001-02-06 Thread Jim Dixon

Hi Nathan,

Have you read Radia Perlman's Interconnections.  There are two.
The second edition I believe is the latest.
She wrote spanning tree.  This book does cover it in detail.
ISBN# 0201634481 

At the time I looked Amazon had a used one in GOOD condition for 15 bucks.

Subject: Spanning Tree Question - Root Port Selection


I have been looking for a while for further documentation of the process by
which a switch selects its root port.  Most of the books that I have
searched for this information say something similar to the following quote
from a CCO page: "A bridge's root port is the port through which the root
bridge can be reached with the least aggregate path cost, a value that is
called the root path cost."  My problem is that they all seem to stop there.
My question is this.  If the root path cost is the same on multiple switch
ports, how does STA determine which is the root port?  Does it follow the
same course as it would when selecting a designated port (root bridge, root
path cost, sender ID, sender port). 
Many thanks for your thoughts.
Nathan Miller

RE: Spanning Tree Question - Root Port Selection

2001-02-06 Thread Jim Dixon

>From the CISCO web site.
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/473/5.html#oper


Rules of Operation - STP works as follows: When the switches first come up,
they start the root switch selection process by each switch transmitting
BPDU to its directly connected switch on a per-VLAN basis. 

As the BPDU goes out through the network, each switch compares the BPDU it
sent out to the one it received from its neighbors. From this comparison,
the switches come to an agreement as to who the root switch is. The switch
with the lowest priority in the network that wins this election process. 

(Remember, there will be one root switch identified per VLAN.) After that
root switch has been identified, the switches follow the rules defined
below: 

STP Rule One: All ports of the root switch must be in forwarding mode
(except for some corner cases where self-looped ports are involved). 
Next, each switch determines their best path to get to the root. They
determine this path by comparing the information in all the BPDUs received
on all their ports. The port with the smallest information contained in its
BPDU is used to get to the root switch; that port is called the root port.
After a switch figures out its root port, it proceeds to Rule Two. 

STP Rule Two: Once a switch determines its root port, that port must be set
to forwarding mode. 

In addition, for each LAN segment, the switches communicate with each other
to determine which switch on that LAN segment is best to use for moving data
from that segment to the root bridge. This switch is called the designated
switch. 

STP Rule Three: In a given LAN segment, the designated switch's port that
connects to that LAN segment must be placed in forwarding mode. 

STP Rule Four: All other ports in all the switches (VLAN-specific) must be
placed in blocking mode. This is only for ports that are connected to other
bridges or switches. Ports connected to workstations or PCs are not affected
by STP; they remain forwarded. 

FOR a Look at path cost you might take a look at

When switch send spanning tree updates those updates are sent in BPDUs
(bridge protocol data units). The BPDU will have a source mac address
associated with the originating switch/VLAN number. If a switch recieves
multiple BPDUs that indicate the same root cost it will pick the one which
came from the switch with the lowest (I'm pretty sure it's lowest and not
highest but I may be wrong) MAC address. There is also a port priority
which I believe (I'm not sure) can be configured to aid in the selection of
the root port

I am interested in knowing the technique that people use to do such
migration.

Would you allow paths to both ISP's and do some prepending of routes or
other metric manipulation
to allow for load sharing during the migration, having the entire network
migrated in a long and meticulous
process?

Would you migrate from the bottom up meaning workstations and hosts first
then border routers last?

Would you migrate one section of the network at a time? Meaning all hosts
and switch the routing
to the ISP all at once?

Would you do it another way?

There's no formal rule, although 30-60 days typically can get negotiated.

As a side comment, remember that when you do switch, it's probably 
worth assuming you will need at least 5 days for the old address to 
purge out of DNS caches.  The great majority of cache entries will 
clear much faster than that, but there will always be some that take 
a while.

You need ISDN to practice looking at q921 and q931 issues. You will need it 
to practice your multilink ppp bundles... You need to be able to configure 
switch types, spids, etc. It is not a good idea to get to the lab and see 
ISDN for the first time.

You can practice DDR on the modems, but that is not the same as knowing 
ISDN.

As for simulating Analog Dial, Teltone makes an analog simulator that sells 
used for about $300 - $400. The Teltone ISDN simulator is available from 
BigD Communications for under $1700. Take a look on Ebay, you'll see that 
these things sell regularly for that price used. Buy it on a credit card, 
use it for a few months to practice for the lab, then sell it on Ebay and 
get all your money back. All you pay is the finance charge to the credit 
card company for a few months. This is a hell of a lot less than you would 
pay to rent it for that time period, and considerably less than you would 
pay to install ISDN in your home.

Not to mention that as long as the simulator is not defective, it will 
always be working when you want to do labs. Try to explain to your telco's 
tech support that you are trying to do some practice labs and desperately 
need them to repair your downed ISDN service right away! That's IF they even

have tech support at midnight, which is when I usually end up doing labs...

I hope this helps you out.

RE: AS5300 radius

2001-03-15 Thread Jim Dixon

I believe that you can specify up to three methods of auth to use
for each aaa line.  the radius local says that first use Radius to auth
then after failing there use the Local Auth setup on the 5300.

Feel free to correct me if I am wrong here.

RE: PIX failover

2001-01-02 Thread Jim Dixon

Of course the REAL test is to unplug one of them once you are certain it is
configured properly to test
the failover and see first hand how it reacts by viewing the routes,
protocols and translations to verify
that all is working according to plan.
Then failover again just to return to the original and prove that it will
return after the initial failure has been resolved.
Put your results into your operating manual(s) for future reference.

I have couple of 520 firewalls ordered a while back but I don't know if is a
way to check
if they are in failover bundle.
To be more specific , I have one up and running but I would like to install
the failover and I don't which one is ( I have other three
ordered for other projects). I think it might be a way of checking on
Cisco's website by having the serial number of the main firewall and
then I can get the the serial number of the failover.

RE: Frame Relay PVC

2001-01-03 Thread Jim Dixon

Dion,
Have you also moved this troublesome link to another "KNOWN GOOD" serial
port.
If you have none free, just switch two of them.
See if the problem follows the serial port or the cable.
If possible use a serial port on another interface on your router.
This will help you eliminate your equipment.

I have a intermittent problem (about a dozen times a day) where a PVC goes
from the active to inactive state. It used to happen maybe once a week. I
have not changed anything on either router. Furthermore, my other PVC's are
unaffected.

I did a debug of the lmi packets and the output is below. My telco says
there is nothing wrong with the physical connection or the configuration of
the PVC. If anyone has an explanation for these events, or even better, a
solution to fix the damn thing, I'd love to hear it.

Thanks,

Converting RIP to EIGRP (Online)

2000-09-25 Thread Jim Dixon

I am looking for information on taking a RIP, Static Route, BGP
backbone, to EIGRP instead of Rip between access nodes  All Routers are
Cisco, some 1601, 3640, 3620, 2610, 7507
I am concerned that when I turn EIGRP on, that it will auto redistribute
the RIP, probably causing a loop or two.  Since this is a production net
with about 10 access nodes and 5 backbone nodes I cannot afford to be
down while I troubleshoot each loop.
  (R1) - (Core 7507)
  (R2) - (Core 7507)
  (R3) - (Core1 3640) - (Core 7507)
  (R4) - (Core1 3640) - (Core 7507)
All run RIP v2 and/or Static routes with passive interfaces on some of
client side routers.

I have looked at Cisco's website and other sites on the internet as well
as my books.
I am still not finding the "HOW to change routing protocols RIP to EIGRP
while avoiding problems" list of steps.  Although I didn't find what I
was looking for I did find many pages on EIGRP on syntax, protocol
specifics, etc... which have not answered my questions yet.

If any of you on the list have done this before and have some references
that you could send to me I would really appreciate it.

What about discontiguous pieces.

Such as 1/2 the cake for me
and 1/20th for you.

1/4 for Allen,

1/8 for Howard

with the remainder being divided into 32'nds

Would that still be a piece of cake too? :)

RE: Routers can't ping own interface

2001-03-29 Thread Jim Dixon

When I did a search, I didn't find a good answer right away but here is what
I did find.




Question: 

What is required to make pinging a local or remote interface work?
Answer: You must have a running Cisco router, configured for IP on that
interface, at the other end of the serial line. Since HEARSELF is defined on
the serial interface, the ping to our own address will go out the wire. The
router on the other end will send it back to us, and we will recieve it.
We'll then send a ping response to ourselves out the wire, and the router on
the other end will send it back to us. Note that when we ping our own serial
address, the ping times are much larger than when we ping the other router's
address. This is because each packet goes on a path that is twice as long. 

I found it at

The relay unsticker-tool is called

Don't remember a part number, and not even sure they're available

IIRC, IBM
used to ship one with each 8228. Needless to say, most of them were lost

Subject: RE: Static route [7:377]


I believe when you add the 255 you are changing the administrative distance
to create a floating static route.  If you had a route learned by EIGRP for
instance with an administrative distance of 90 and the floating static route
with a distance of 255, the route learned by EIGRP would be used until the
link goes down.  When the EIGRP route is down, the floating static route
will take over.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

CISCO says: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/123/backup-main.html

Floating Static Routes
Floating static routes are static routes that have an administrative
distance greater than the administrative distance of dynamic routes.
Administrative distances can be configured on a static route so that the
static route is less desirable than a dynamic route. In this manner, the
static route is not used when the dynamic route is available. However, if
the dynamic route is lost, the static route can take over, and traffic can
be sent through this alternate route. If this alternate route is provided
using a DDR interface, then that interface can be used as a backup
mechanism. 

Sequence 

The primary interface learns a primary route to a remote network (using a
static route or a dynamic routing protocol). The administrative distance of
this learned route is less than the floating static, thus the learned route
is used. 
The primary interface becomes inoperable, although line protocol may remain
up. Loss of routing updates eventually removes the learned primary route
from the routing table.
The floating static route is used since it is now the route with the lowest
administrative distance.

Pros
This is independent of line protocol status. 
It is encapsulation independent.
It can backup multliple interfaces/networks on a router. 

Cons
This requires a routing protocol.
It is dependent upon the routing protocol convergence times.
It is more difficult to configure.
It can typically only provide backup for a single router.
It is dependent upon interesting traffic to trigger the DDR backup call

Hello Group,

Sorry your Answer (E) is Incorrect! 

CCDA - Cisco Certified Design Associate
Access lists can be used to control traffic on an internetwork. What
statement is implied at the end of each access list?

A - process all

B - permit all

C - broadcast all

D - filter all

E - deny all 

Correct Answer - A

Explanation: deny all The ordering of access lists on a router is extremely
important. When a router receives a packet, it will test each packet against
each criteria in the access list statements. Once a match is found, the
processing stops and no more statements are checked for a match. If for some
reason, the packet does not match any of the criteria, the packet with be
blocked with the implicit "deny all" statement.

IMHO, most of the people I know personally that are disenhanted with
certifications are that way because they didn't like the idea that someone
could, in a year or two of hard studying, learn as much about networking as
it took them 10 years to learn.  I'm not knocking good old experience, and
I'm in the process of getting more and more experience everyday to truly
fill out my skillset with the knowledge of problems and issues that you
don't read about in textbooks.  I realize the value of experience versus
book knowledge.

I have to disagree to some of your points here.  Some of the exams, have
dated information, but Cisco makes an effort to make sure the exams are
updated so that you're not dealing with totally antiquated technologies.
For instance, a friend who completed CCNP a year before I started the CCNP
2.0, said that his switching exam didn't cover any multicast or multilayer
switching.  While going through the CCNP 2.0, my switching exam was filled
with multilayer switching and multicast/multicasting routing protocols,
which is STILL not being utilized in many environments because "it's too
new".

I will admit that many of the scenarios proposed in the exams are by no
means complex compared to real life situations.

However, what you're failing to recognize (or admit) is that passing the
exam proves more than you can pass an exam.  If  what you're saying were
true, no college degree would considered valid because college as a whole is
just a bunch of exams to pass.  This logic escapes me.  One thing that
passing exams gives you that even years of real world experience cannot is
the details and background to understand why things are the way they are.
Sure theory isn't always = real world, but it never is.  I work with a
network engineer who has been such for FIVE YEARS.  He was looking in a
router the other day and noticed some multicast traffic and said "We don't
run any multicast on our network" and me, the "book learned green horn",
simply said "We're running EIGRP on our network, aren't we?"  (which we
are).  He didn't have a clue what I was implying.  So I just left "the
engineer" to figure it out.  The company I am with is a very large,
multinational, Cisco-only company with (literally) teams of (probably over
100) engineers that all have great experience, and hardly any of them is
certified.  I don't have any disrespect for them because of that.  However,
when someone with ZERO real-world experience, like me, can walk in on a
6-month contract armed with no more than a sharp mind and a CCNA (1/2 of the
CCNP finished =), make many suggestions and modifications to their network
that have had global impact and improved performance or solved long-time
problems, and have gained the respect of every engineer that works there,
that proves to me and should prove to everyone that attaining these
certifications is much more than proving you can pass exams.

My father-in-law once told me that "Sometimes 10 years experience isn't
always 10 years experience.  It's the same 1 year of experience over and
over".  There are sooo many people that learn just what they need to get by
and then "look down" at a hungry young go-getter that has certifications
because they feel that the youngster "surely can't know things that I don't
know", not realizing they know RIP inside and out, but are clueless about

RE: another OT: why you UNIX guys look down on we NT guys? [7:6760]

2001-06-01 Thread Jim Dixon

THE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE B 

ABSTRACT
B is a computer language designed by D. M. Ritchie and K. L. Thompson, for
primarily non-numeric applications such as system programming. These
typically involve complex logical decision-making, and processing of
integers, characters, and bit strings. On the H6070 TSS system, B programs
are usually much easier to write and understand than assembly language
programs, and object code efficiency is almost as good. Implementation of
simple TSS subsystems is an especially appropriate use for B. This technical
report contains a description of the MH-TSS (Honeywell 6070) version of B
(by S. C. Johnson), and a tutorial introduction to most of the features of
the language (by B. W. Kernighan). 

Ken Thompson
 The principal inventor of the Unix operating system and author of
the B language, the predecessor of C. 

In the early days Ken used to hand-cut Unix distribution tapes, often with a
note that read "Love, ken". Old-timers still use his first name (sometimes
uncapitalised, because it's a login name and mail address) in third-person
reference; it is widely understood (on Usenet in particular) that without a
last name "Ken" refers only to Ken Thompson. Similarly, Dennis without last
name means Dennis Ritchie (and he is often known as dmr). 

Ken was first hired to work on the Multics project, which was a huge
production with many people working on it. Multics was supposed to support
hundreds of on-line logins but could barely handle three. 

In 1969, when Bell Labs withdrew from the project, Ken got fed up with
Multics and went off to write his own operating system. People said "well,
if zillions of people wrote Multics, then an OS written by one guy must be
Unix!". There was some joking about eunichs as well. 

Ken's wife Bonnie and son Corey (then 18 months old) went to visit family in
San Diego. Ken spent one week each on the kernel, file system, etc., and
finished UNIX in one month along with developing SPACEWAR (or was it "Space
Travel"?).

Get back to the origins of the name UNIX.  Pronounced aloud, is there 
an English word that comes to mind?

The ancestor of UNIX is MULTICS.  UNIX is castrated MULTICS.

Extra credit for the two predecessors of C. (No, the first one isn't A).

Since you did not mention for sure whether you would switch ISP or not.
1. If you stay with the same ISP, they should be able to let you keep the
same IP number especially for those 2 /24s. If they plan everything ahead of
time and you keep the old IPs, it is indeed only going to be couple minutes
of downtime and you don't have to do anything on your router. Of course,
this is based on the assumption that they have good network engineers over
there taking care of your case.

2.  If you are going to switch to another ISP, you would probably have to
change your IPs since you don't own those /24s. Theoretically, those two
ISPs could make arrangements to let you keep the old IPs. However, it is
going to be a big hassle and you would find it not worth the effort.

RE: Duplicates [7:33955]

2002-02-01 Thread Jim Dixon

To everyone with duplicates.

Try removing all your RULES if you are using the OUTLOOK client (or outlook
express)

Try removing FILTERS if you are using the Netscape client.

Otherwise use the NewsFeed.

I had dupes.  I removed my RULES  ALL OF THEM and I operated for a week
without them.
The Dupes seemed to stop.  I had none in week.  I re-created my rules and
have had zero trouble with them since.

Another thing to consider that may be linked is that Outlook client is
connected to an exchange server running viruscan and client pc is running
McAfee.  Any or all of these things could be contributing to the problem.
However, mine has no problem anymore.

RE: IP's and ISP going out of business [7:35850]

2002-02-19 Thread Jim Dixon

It occured to me that if we have an ISP or a provider
that suddenly goes out of business.  Our service will cease
at that point.
Now if I LIKE HAVING those services I would VERY quickly acquire them
from ANOTHER provider, preferring they be someone NOT in danger of ceasing 
to exist anytime during my NEW contract.
At that point I would most certainly have new circuit orders, and have
to renumber my network to match the new IP space that my new provider just
gave me.

It would be the same as discontinuing your current service and 
changing providers would it not?  When you do, you always have to renumber
your equipment that must must public addressing.  
Isn't that why Enterprises often use NAT/PAT within their network 
and number all private devices using the reserved addresses wherever
possible?

Am I still missing the point?

RE: How does repeater work? [7:36323]

2002-02-25 Thread Jim Dixon

You might try whatis.com for an answer.
You might also look for an RFC at the RFC Index for repeater.  A quick
search at ftp://ftp.isi.edu/ietf/1rfc_index.txt
yeilds:
RFC: 1368, 1516, 2108, & 2266 as matching on the word Repeater.

Peter Dyson in his Dictionary of Networking defines it as:

repeater

A simple hardware device that moves all packets from one local-area network
segment to another by regenerating, retiming, and amplifying the electrical
signals.

The main purpose of a repeater is to extend the length of the network
transmission medium beyond the normal maximum cable lengths

RE: Duplicate messages from GroupStudy Listserve [7:40077]

Yea I have had it as well as several others on this list
who were all using Outlook as a mail client.
Do this:
Delete all your rules.  
Still having trouble?
Remove and Re-install Outlook.
That should fix your dupes issue.
It fixed mine.

My rules were my problem.  I deleted them all
and re-created them and now I don't get the dupes anymore.

Strange but true.  I had changed PC's and moved my PST file 
to the new location.  I am thinking that changing PC's
may be partly to blame since my rules also followed me.
But I have not verified this theory.

I don't know what *should* happen, however I can confirm (from personal
experience) it is possible to have a somewhat working link with
mismatched lmi type.
If all the remote sites have cisco and HQ is ANSI I'd change HQ to cisco
for a start, although I think I remember ANSI has less overhead, at last
at lo! speed I think there's a significant difference; anyone can
confirm this ? I can't reach my stuff just now :(, but I remember a case
with IP terminals (like serial terminals but with ethernet, just capable
of doing telnet and print with reverse telnet) at 9600, screen refresh
was MUCH better with ansi (not counting compression).

RE: Is loading IOS into 2500 with no Flash possible? [7:14375]

2001-07-31 Thread Jim Dixon

There are several posts regarding 2500 routers and BIOS/FLASH replacement,
upgrades, in the archives, some of which date back to 1999.

A quick search in the archives for '2500 boot rom' yeilded 8 hits.

The 2500 have a basic IOS stored on Boot ROMs.  If no IOS is present in
flash, then the router will boot to Config Helper mode (or boot helper,
or something like that) and you can use TFTP to transfer an image to
flash.  You said your routers have *no* flash.  I thought 2500s had some
built-in flash, but if they don't and you really don't have any flash
then you're hosed.   

Fortunately, 2500 flash probably isn't too expensive nowdays.

Good luck!
John

So how do you put the ios on them? (just curious) I've never had to

The 2500 series can not do XMODEM.  Also, these are not run-from-RAM

Hi,
I have 3 2500's that have 16meg RAM but no Flash memory. I had read
where
you could boot to ROMMON> and issue an XMODEM command and have the IOS
transfered to the box. There is also a option to load it into RAM and
run it
(-r I think). 

Sounded good but when I boot to ROMMON, the xmodem command is not
there. I
have the latest boot ROM from Cisco on these as well. What gives?
Documentation wrong? Am I doing something wrong? Is this even

What Cisco product would you recommend for dial in/dial out capability on a
LAN.  We have many users who dial into our network and do work from home. 
We also have users that would like to dial out from their desktop without
using stand alone modems.  Something that would handle at least 16
simultaneous users.  We currently use a product that is slow and sometimes
it locks up.  Any advice/input would be appreciated.

Cisco tightned down the IOS downloading a bit this past summer.

You will need a contract  SMARTNET or another type to download it. 
And then: only the IOS versions supported under your contract will be
available to you for download and their respective upgrades.

This is the way my local Cisco Reps have explained it to me.

You may want to contact your local Cisco Rep to verify this and/or call
Cisco to buy a contract on your equipment.

Hope this helps,

RE: OSPF Route Summarization Trick Question [7:23771]

I was thinking of using an ACL with Distribute List.

Your paragraph states that the solutions must work
with any router and any protocol. Static Routes would be my first choice
here
provided the lab directions didn't prevent this choice.

What did the directions for the LAB state? Were there any that stated that
you
must not use a certain method for any questions in this particular lab?

Why did the question begin asking about OSPF then ask if there were other
ways
to accomplish the same goal by using a non-protocol dependent, non-router
platform
dependent method?

Yep, distribute-lists could work in conjuction with Jonathan's
suggestion of redistributing a static route.  I wanted to know how to
suppress the more-specific subnets and a distribute list would work.  It
would be pretty unwieldy for more than a few routes but it definitely
would work.

Are you thinking of a method that uses only distribute lists without
the static route?  If so, let me know what you're thinking, I'd love to
try it out.  I know that would work in cases where, like in EIGRP, a
classful supernet often resides in the routing table along with the
more-specific subnets.  A distribute list could be used to filter only
the subnets.

Okay, this doesn't quite qualify as a trick question but I'm having
trouble finding the answer.  I hope it's not too obvious or I'll be
embarrassed.  :-)   While working on one of the Fatkid's labs I see
the
following in the Hints sections:



3. There are two built in OSPF methods to summarize OSPF routes. One
way summaries between areas. The other summarizes between Autonomous
Systems.  Do you know a third way to summarize routes, which works for
any router, running any routing protocol?  How about a fourth?



I was quite aware of the first two but I have no idea what the last
two
could be.  I'm especially interested in the the method that works for
any router running any routing protocol.  I really have a feeling I'm
going to kick myself when someone tells me what that is.

Do any of you know what they're referring to?

Thanks,

Search for a program called MRTG

It is free, requires configuration, but is an excellent tool for
rendering graphs of usage, as well as lots of other features and add
ins.

I use it to moitor (amongst others) the modem usage on our AS5300.

Cheers,

Symon
