RE: Ancient Isdn bri wisdom ? [7:40586]
> Now I tried to research the reason for that and really didn't > find any. It is done because ISDN lines are considered two physical paths that are bonded together using PPP multilink or Cisco's proprietary bonding. If you don't disable route caching then the tcp/ip conversation will always be switched out the same physical path (your big download will only use 1/2 of the 128k connection). It's easy to test that...just remove it sometime. no-fair queue appears to be the default for asynchronous interfaces on the later versions of IOS. To be honest, I'm not certain why FIFO offers better performance than WFQ would on asynch lines; I can't find a good explanation on CCO right now.

If you want redundant links, I don't see why STP delay would be an issue; perhaps you are referring to ethernet traffic? With a Gig backbone my trunk utilization is under 2%. There is only one blocked link (top floor to basement). Regardless of approach, there will be a 30 second delay if you use backbonefast. Separate VLANs per floor would be be nice but redesigning the network isn't an option right now. They just went from public IP's to a single /16 network last year.

This way if any one switch fails it'll only take out one floor. You'll want a lot of redundancy in your server room switch because if it goes out, then once again, your entire network is down.

I easily passed Microsoft's 70-240 exam. Everyone was whining about how low the pass rate was and how difficult it is. I had no problem with the new format and I didn't find the exam difficult after 6+ years of working with NT. That really isn't the point, though. The issue is that a certain percentage of computer people take the "it was easy for me so you must be a moron" approach to these topics. Life just isn't that simple and just because you/I can pass an exam or wade through the B.S. doesn't make a vendor's approach the correct one.

> something? If > simulations and a new format are scaring you that bad you > shouldn't even be taking the exams I understand what you are saying, but your comments are simplistic. There are a lot of people out there with considerable experience and skill that are not good test takers (a good friend of mine is one of them). People that are not native English speakers can also have problems with these exams. Many of the certification exams test your ability to memorize command syntax (that in real life you'd use the "?" for), have trick questions, or flat out have poor wording. To think that these exams are an accurate reflection of ability is tough to believe.

It creates attractive graphs and many of us use it to do long-term monitoring/graphing of their connections. You can get more information at www.mrtg.org. Of course, you could just do a SHOW INTERFACE command on the serial port and add the two data rates togetherif you just want to check once.
