RE: Physical Difference Between RJ45 and RJ48
To Daniel Yes, from further research I believe it does have more to do the way the connector is wired and then used rather than the physical shape and size of the connector. To Howard When I saw it in the CFR, I thought that it must relate back to the Carterphone decision and all of the deregulation, but what a strange place to find telecommunications connector specifications. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Daniel Cotts Sent: Saturday, January 13, 2001 11:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Physical Difference Between RJ45 and RJ48 RJ-48 is similar to RJ-45 except that it has a key on the side of the jack.

Which Ethernet Frame Does Everyone Use [7:6179]
I am confused about which Ethernet frame type everyone uses with TCP/IP today. I understand that there are four different types. I see from the Cisco website that they talk about only two of these four. The two they discuss are called Ethernet and IEEE 802.3. The one Cisco calls Ethernet has the following fields Preamble Destination Address Source Address Type Data CRC The one Cisco calls IEEE 802.3 has Preamble Start Frame Delimiter Destination Address Source Address Length Data and 802.2 Header inside the data area as best I can tell CRC Why do they mention these two only?

RE: Bus Topology and Ethernet
On any architecture or topology you must consider the logical layout and the physical layout. Ethernet is logically a bus. Token Ring is logically a ring. Ethernet is physically a bus - as in 10Base5 and 10Base2 - or a star - as in 10BaseT. The bus arrangement of Ethernet makes more sense when you see it physically in a 10Base2 form. 10Base2 is the old style of Ethernet that uses thin coax cable. Token Ring is physically a star as well. -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Oscar RauSent: Wednesday, July 12, 2000 8:54 PMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Bus Topology and Ethernet I was reading about network topology and they say that an example of bus topology is Ethernet network.

What Does RSSI Mean [7:64127]
In my studies for the Cisco wireless test I keep running across the term RSSI - Received Signal Strength Indicator. Is this something different from just the signal strength in dBms as shown by most utility programs? For example in the site monitor part of the Orinoco Gold card it shows the signal right now as -50 dBm and the noise as -98 dBm. So is the RSSI in this case -50 dBm or does RSSI refer to something else the Orinoco site monitor does not measure?

How Do You Measure a Wireless LAN's Packet Error Rate [7:64129]
While reading Priscilla's book on Campus Area Network Troubleshooting, which is an excellent book that I highly recommend, it and other sources state that the Packet Error Rate should be measured for a WLAN. The problem is I cannot find anything at a reasonable price to use to measure such a thing for a WLAN. For example, I see on the WaveRider web site, they are a maker of wireless equipment, that they have a nice little tool that shows both RSSI and Packet Error Rate. But this is only for their own equipment. Is there a software tool for a laptop that will do this for an 802.11b WLAN? You can more or less do this with Wild Packet's AiroPeek. A tool by Berkeley Varitronics Systems called YellowJacket will also do this. But both of these are expensive. Does anyone know of something less expensive?

RJ-45 and RJ-48 as used for a T1 circuit are effectively the same. As long as the distance is not too great from the demarc to the router, Cat 5 UTP cable can be used.

Which Version of ATM to Use [7:53737]
I have been reading up on how to configure ATM on Cisco equipment. In particular I have been looking at examples of how ATM is used in a campus network, such as to connect two buildings. The Cisco documents for the 8510 MSR for example discuss configuration using LANE clients, MPOA, Classical IP, and bridging. The part I have been unable to figure out is, in the real world, which of these methods would I use to create a campus area network connecting together two or more buildings using ATM? For example, Cisco says that Classical IP over ATM is only used for inband management of the ATM switch router. Yet it seems to me to be the way to do this. If not, is LANE the answer? Any help would be appreciated. FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Which Version of ATM to Use [7:53737]
Thanks, to the several that pointed out that ATM is dead in such an environment. I know that. What I mean is in the case where it is already in place, how do they do it? Assuming for whatever I reason I do not want to or cannot get rid of the ATM as the campus link, how is such a thing configured? Which of the techniques I listed do most people use? Or is there some other method I have yet to hear about? Is there just one way to do this? Does everybody with such an ATM link use LANE, if IP is the only thing they need to send?

RE: Network Analyzers [7:72346]
Interesting. I have used both products as well and I found the interface, filter, and capture functions to be just the opposite. In that the EtherPeek filters and capture seemed counterintuitive, whereas Sniffer was obvious. The Sniffer interface seems to have things exactly where I expect them to be :) That is one of the reasons I stopped using EtherPeek in our labs and switched to Sniffer. Must be why they are both on the market. Both are excellent products. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 3:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Network Analyzers [7:72346] I used to use Sniffer and switched to EtherPeek a couple years ago and never regretted it. A couple times I found that EtherPeek didn't decode a protocol as well as Sniffer, but I reported it, and the next release had a better decode. The best thing about EtherPeek is that the user interface is so intuitive. Everything works the way you expect it to. Sniffer is a bit more clumsy and Ethereal is definitely more clumsy. It took me hours to figure out filters on Ethereal! Filters on Sniffer took quite a while too, come to think of it. They are obvious with EtherPeek. Ethereal does do a great job considering it's free, though. It decodes almost as many protocols as the others and just as competently. Mainly I use an analyzer for protocol analysis. I don't use the expert system on either Sniffer or EtherPeek NX. I find that both of them alert you to problems that aren't really problems. Anyway, I do highly recommend EtherPeek. Sorry I don't have any more details on features in one or the other though.

RE: wireless security and VPN software? [7:73988]
Are they concerned about what is in the traffic going back and forth from the wireless users to the wired network? In other words interception of the signal. Or is it a desire to isolate the wireless from the wired side of the network. If isolation is what is needed, it would seem a lot easier to put the wireless users in their own network and implement security where the wireless and wired networks join. If they are concerned with the traffic going back and forth over the wireless network, what about encrypting all of their traffic by default? If they use a VPN solution, it does nothing for the rogue access point problem. A group of users could setup their own wireless network and not have to use a VPN. Whereas if all PCs encrypt their traffic, even over the wired network, they could bypass the interception problem. Now I cannot say I have ever attempted to encrypt traffic this way. What are the problems with this approach? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 6:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: wireless security and VPN software? [7:73988] For a large campus network that has a need for wireless access in conference rooms, cafeterias, etc., would it be overkill to require wireless clients to use VPN IPSec software to access the campus network? This is for a customer who is paranoid about security and understands the tradeoff of ease-of-use versus security. There are othere downsides with requiring VPN software, of course, including the usual issues of incompatibility with some apps, the lack of support for protocols other than IP, and the lack of support for multicast applications (from what I understand). Also, we have to consider the scalability of the current VPN solution and whether it can support numerous transient wireless users, but we think it can. There are many advantages with IPSec too, like support for encryption that actually works... What do you all think? Do any of you require your campus wireless users to use VPN software?

OT Post Question About Books [7:74309]
This Sunday has been quiet on the list. In fact most days are quiet on this list these days. This brings to mind a question I have had for a while. If anyone has anything on this I would appreciate hearing from you. The question is, in this down book market how many copies do the books published by publishers such as Cisco Press and O'Reilly actually sell? I searched the web some, but these numbers never seem to be published anywhere. In particular I am curious as to how many copies a how to configure Cisco routers book sells as opposed to some of the more obscure topics O'Reilly publishes books on. Do any of the esteemed authors on the list care to share their numbers with me or point me to the source for such figures? Any information would be appreciated, even if it is a more than this number but less than this other number sort of range. If this is too personal of a question, I understand.
