RE: IOS for Home Lab [7:62830]
... it's been posted before that 12.1(5)T is supposed to be running on the Routers in the CCIE Lab. I have not attended the LAB, so I can't say for sure. I think it may even be listed on the Cisco Website for the CCIE Track. My advice- if you can afford it (and memory is really cheap), I would max out the RAM and FLASH on all of your routers. You might spend a total of 300.00 USD on this, but it will be worth it. -Original Message- From: Azhar Teza [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 11, 2003 4:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: IOS for Home Lab [7:62830] I purchased some Cisco 4500/3810/2600 routers to setup the home lab.

RE: ADSL and PIX puzzle [7:63458]
A Couple of pointers from my humble experience (granted this is also provided from a very tired engineer that needs to go to bed :) ): Put 200.10.10.36/30 on the Dialer Interface. ... I think you need to be using the VPDN Group commands to get the DSL working. There are a couple of ways to connect to the ISP DSLAM, i.e., Dialer Interface with VPDN, or BVI interfaces (which is what I would expect with the scenario you describe utilizing the ADSL interface rather than a Service Provider DSL Modem and a PPPoE compliant Eth0 interface). If you go with BVI interface config, then put the 200.10.10.36/30 on the BVI interface. Put 200.10.15.184/29 on the Ethernet0 of the DSL Router... Put 200.10.15.185/29 on the PIX Outside Interface... Do NAT on the PIX ONLY. Static NAT for the Web Server with another one of those IPs in the block you have been issued, or PAT to the Webserver with Port Redirection. Default Route to the DSL Router on the PIX, Default Route to the Upstream provider on the DSL Router. Seems like a pretty straight forward config for both devices. HTH's.

RE: Frame-Relay issue [7:63446]
>>in show ip interface it shows as protocol down , physical link up. >>sh frame-relay pvs shows as inactive.no lmi are exchanged. Usually "Protocol Down, Link Up" indicates that you have mismatched encapsulation, LMI-Type, or even incorrect IP Addressing (wrong Subnet or incorrect Subnet Mask) between your end and the other end of the FR Network. If no LMI is exchanged, then the LMI-Type is incorrect between that Serial Interface and the Service Provider Frame Switch. If this is a Frame Relay LAB setup, double-check your Frame Relay "Switch" configuration. If this is a Production Setup, contact your ISP and verify your Frame Relay configuration parameters.

RE: ADSL and PIX puzzle [7:63498]
Strictly speaking, I didn't do the math and verify (since you specified "for example") the ip net block against your example subnet mask. You specified .248 as your mask before, now you're indicating it as /24 mask. Which ever it is, the point was this: If the ISP has assigned you a two-host subnet for the ADSL connection to them (Just like a Point-to-Point T1), and they've also assigned you a block of 8 addresses (1 used for Net boundary, 1 used for Broadcast, 1 used for the Router, 5 used for what ever you feel like), then you would follow the suggestions for addressing that I laid out. If you were assigned full Class C addresses for either the DSL Connection OR the "Client" Public block (which represents hosts like your WebServer via NAT), then simply put the /24 mask on each interface. For the ADSL connection itself though, that would be a gross waste of addresses. Also, if you were given TWO Class C blocks, then you could simply put one IP from the first block on your Dialer Interface, one IP from the same block on the Ethernet0 Interface, and one IP from the same block on the Outside Interface of the PIX. You'd then put 1 IP address from the second block on the Inside interface, and DHCP/STATIC Assign the rest of that block to any host on the Inside network (alternatively, if you had a PIX that had the DMZ NIC, you could put the second block on that, but the address assignment still applies in practice). This would work for the application of your web server hosting a max of 253 Unique .com/.net/.org/.whatever websites- each with its own unique public address (you can assign a whole class C to a single NIC). This would, of course be a waste of addresses if your web server is only hosting a couple of websites and you don't even have a LAN that uses all 254 addresses of that second public block. Doing Double-Nat is only really necessary (from my limited experience) for situations where you are trying to connect two LANs together that were previously numbered with the same net block/mask, i.e., LAN A and LAN B are on the 172.16.30.x/24 network. You have to introduce an additional router/firewall into the mix on ONE of the ends to make the connection work (whether it be GRE Tunneling from LAN to LAN, VPN Tunnel from LAN to LAN, etc.).

Mark then suggests "Put 200.10.15.184/29 on the Ethernet0 of the DSL Router..." and "Put 200.10.15.185/29 on the PIX Outside Interface..." umm, the IP on eth0 is my network number for public IP space, so, shouldn4t eth0 on router be 200.10.15.185/24 ? If so wouldn4t I be wasting 1 IP to get to the pix? Albert Lu suggests using ip unnumbered eth0, on the Dialer int, ok, then if I use 200.10.10.138/24 on eth0 on the router(ISP uses the other available IP) what other IP could I use on the pix eth0 (interface directly connected to router4s eth0)?

A couple of things to check/answer that should point you in the direction of the corrective actions. 1. Is Data and Voice over IP traffic going over this FR link? 2. If 1 is yes, then, has it always been this way? 3. If 2 is no, then, what has changed in terms of traffic across the link? You might need to look into implementing LLQ traffic shaping to manage/protect the time-sensitive Voice traffic. 4. If 2 is yes, then A) check to see if your configuration on the routers has changed in regards to the traffic queuing mechanism you have in place B) check your Serial Interface stats to see if there are CRC errors or other types of circuit problems, or check the Frame Relay stats for FECN/BECN issues, etc. HTH's Mark -Original Message- From: K A [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 25, 2003 10:05 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Voice degradation problem in Cisco VoIP network [7:63823] Hi, I am getting voice degradation problem b/w our two sites.

RE: PATCH PANEL stuff [7:64503]
Sam- You're in for some fun. If you try to move the patch panel, the only defining factor is the length of the cables going to the panel. You obviously can only move in the direction in which the cables are coming from. If you have some of the cables coming from the bottom of the rack and the rest coming from the top, you're going to have to pull the bottom cables or the top cables, moved the panel, and then re-punch the cables that were pulled. While moving the panel, any cables still attached should be zip-strapped very securely to the panel all the way to the outside edge i.e., immobilizing the cables. If you don't, you might as well remove and re-punch them all. Think of the issue as like that of the Telco engineer in the CO or Panel box down in the hole... if is isn't extremely careful (which they usually aren't), he's going to break a few line pairs' connections ever so slightly while working on another pair (which of course then causes your phone line or T1 to be down until the returns to fix what he broke without realizing it). Same premise for the Ethernet cables. Your best bet is to simply pull them all, and re-punch them. It's time consuming, but it does the job right the first time. This still means you need to move the panel in the direction of the cable (unless you have a serious amount of excess cable for all of the cable runs coiled up in the ceiling or the raised floor. As far as how long it takes to punch them down- 10 to 30 seconds. Labeling them as you pull them off the patch panel depends on if you are using a P-touch labeler or hand-writing on some kind of tape. As always, Your mileage may vary. -Mark -Original Message- From: Sam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2003 12:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: PATCH PANEL stuff [7:64503] Hey Guys, In my wiring closet, I have about 3 racks and about 10 patch panels(The Racks got capacity for at least 30 PP's) I need to move a patch panel out and to the rack next to the one it currently is on.

RE: ISDN switch (beyond simulator) [7:64628]
I don't know much on them, but perhaps the Adtran Atlas line of products might be able to help.

I'm dealing with a situation where I need to interconnect several simulated training sites (i.e., physically in the same room) and telephony servers through a PSTN simulation. In other words, I need a small CO switch, with the ability at least to interconnect several trunks (probably both T1 E&M and ISDN PRI), with a static calling plan among tens of telephones. The switch would emulate several end offices, plus the PSTN interoffice connectivity between them. For the latter, however, I don't need to have physical interoffice trunks as long as I can simulate their effect in a dialing plan. The switch should also be able to simulate dedicated data links between sites. In the real world, this is no problem to do with off-the-shelf equipment that would support thousands of lines. Within the Cisco product line, I suspect I get close with an MGX or the like, but probably fall short in circuit-switch call supervision and routing. Thoughts? I'm going to review my Nortel Passport documents to see if it has the loop supervision capabilities available; I vaguely remember a version that might.

JUST SO LONG AS: the hiring manager/HR Puppet doesn't require prior experience in "an enterprise network environment" just to get an interview. That was EXACTLY the catch-22 I faced getting into this industry 9 years ago. "What, no experience?!?! Then why would I want to hire you and put you in the seat of managing my 2000 node network?...shyaa right! You aren't touchin' this network with a 10 foot pole!" OJT is not what it used to be in the 80's. You got hired for more then the ability to pass the basic math test. You were hired because of your aptitude proven in the interview. Then you were sent to training classes for the first several weeks of your new job. Then you were placed under a supervisor and mentored for a time period. These days, there are reasons why they put the "must be able to work with minimal to zero supervision" in the description of the IT Job posting. And they don't have any interest or plan in putting you through any kind of training... ... so the Ol' Catch-22 returns in vogue just like the bell-bottoms. ... and one more thing: Am I just living in a bubble or something, cuz' I just don't see this phenomenon of thousands of geeks like myself scoffing up gear in their homes here in the D/FW, Texas area to take a smack at the R/S or C/S labs ... is this geographic by nature or something by economic demographic??

RE: Microsoft IAS and VPN 3000/Client Authentication [7:66703]
Though I haven't done it myself, you should be able to keep the IAS box (Windows 2000 Member Server) and the NT4PDC Box separate. You're authentication AND access can be defined by the IAS box. You would only need to allow RADIUS Ports... 1645 RADIUS Authentication 1646 RADIUS Accounting OR 1812 RADIUS server 1813 RADIUS accounting ..on the PIX between the concentrator and the IAS box. It would be more advisable to put the VPN Concentrator on the DMZ port of the PIX if you have it; this is left to interpretation and opinion. NOTE: I have no experience with the Concentrators, so, your mileage may vary. -Mark -Original Message- From: kwindancer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2003 11:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Microsoft IAS and VPN 3000/Client Authentication [7:66703] Hello All: I'm looking into using Microsoft IAS and Windows NT4 PDC to authenticate VPN client users who are accessinga VPN 3000 concentrator.

RE: PIX Firewall 6.2.2 Inside network can not reach DMZ hosts [7:69779]
Charles- I could be wrong, but my interpretation of the doc's covering the Alias command says that you can't have your cake and eat it too. :) What I mean is, I don't believe you can DNS-Doctor and Destination-NAT at the same time. Like I said, I could be wrong. >From what I understand, you need to do your translation with a static command: "Static (inside,dmz) 10.3.3.1 10.1.1.x netmask 255.255.255.255 0 0" ..and then set up your DNS-Doctor Alias. "Alias (inside) 10.1.1.x 10.3.3.1 255.255.255.255" Note: Verify that the DNS server resolves your host/domain name to the global IP address of the web server by issuing an nslookup command. The result of the nslookup on the client PC should be the internal IP address of the server (10.1.1.x), because the DNS reply gets doctored as it passes through the PIX. Also note that, for DNS fixup to work properly, proxy-arp has to be disabled. If you are using the alias command for DNS fixup, disable proxy-arp with the following command after the alias command has been executed. "sysopt noproxyarp internal_interface" If you are also trying to maintain DNS integrity from the outside point of view, I believe the 'DNS' keyword is all that is needed in the following command (to allow the outside world to also reach the DMZ host). "Static (dmz,outside) 10.3.3.1 10.2.2.1 dns netmask 255.255.255.255" Or, taking the concepts from the Alias Doc's, you could do this. "Alias (outside) 10.2.2.1 10.3.3.1 255.255.255.255" ...but I think this might be the older way of doing it. Don't forget your ACL's so that DNS and whatever other services need to be accessed on the DMZ host (one ACL for the Inside, one for the Outside).

It has to do with my PIX firewall configuration. The long and short of my problem is that the inside network can only reach inside hosts and outside networks: it can not reach any host on on the DMZ, depsite the fact that there are numerous statics and alias configured to permit it to do so. I have a 515 6.2 with the following networks configured: Inside 10.1.1.0/24 Outside 10.2.2.0/24 DMZ 10.3.3.0/24 First, we have names for ServerA located on the DMZ network: name 10.3.3.1 SERVERA_DMZ name 10.2.2.1 SERVERA_OUTSIDE ServerA actually is addressed with 10.3.3.1 because it is on the DMZ; the 10.2.2.1 is its outside address (as well as being its registed DNS name). If an inside networker DNS queries for SERVERA, the following commands are supposed to swap the outside address for the DMZ address. IN other words, intercept the DNS repy and change it so that the inside network will then establish a session to 10.3.3.1 (dmz address), not to 10.2.2.1 (outside nat'ed address) alias (inside) SERVERA_DMZ SERVERA_OUTSIDE 255.255.255.255 alias (inside) SERVERA_OUTSIDE SERVERA_DMZ 255.255.255.255 Initial DNS tests shows that this is not happening: the inside network DNS requeries are getting outside addresses. Compounding the problem is translation process itself. The below states that when Inside networks go to the DMZ network, PAT their address to 10.3.3.9, excepting those sessions listed in ACL 100 (which upon checking do not affect the tranlation in this particular case). nat (inside) 0 access-list 100 nat (inside) 1 10.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 0 0 global (DMZ) 1 10.3.3.9 netmask 255.255.255.0 So, in a happy world, the inside network should DNS query for SERVERA, the PIX should intercept replies and change to a DMZ address (alias), and NAT should then translate as appropriate. In the words of Larry King, it ain't happening, gang...and I don't know why. I beseech, oh, Group of Infinite Wisdom, for you assistance. As a closer, my problems started when I upgraded to 6.3.1...what a mistake. I have since downgraded it back to 6.2, and have checked and rechecked the config...there are no commands missing.

RE: Virtual MAC and Port Security [7:70030]
David- it's been a while since I did this, but from what I understand you to say, you are trying to provide fault tolerance (fail-over) at the NIC level for these servers. I can't vouch for the 6500s, but on the 5500s that I used to manage, we used Intel NICs in a "teaming" fashion (which was to provide said fault tolerance). These NICs had their FastEthernet cables going to each switch respectively. (4 NICs in each Server, 2 CAT5500's to plug into). The virtual mac's of the Teaming group was plugged into the port security table on the CATs. The CATs were also Trunk'd together via GBICs, so STP would block one Fast-Ether-Channel group of NIC cables on one switch while allowing the other group to operate. So, the short of it is, I believe you'll have to set up an EtherChannel with the NIC Pool(s) and it's assumed that you already are Trunking between your 6500's for backbone redundancy. Port Security should be straight forward- just one Virtual-MAC per NIC Pool to be plugged into the MAC Security Table, and reference the security mac table on the ports you want to enable port security. It's been a couple of years since I did this, so hopefully I remembered all the steps required. YMMV :) HTHs -Mark -Original Message- From: David Vital [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 6:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Virtual MAC and Port Security [7:70030] I have several Servers that are going to be doing NIC pooling.

RE: number of CCIE [7:70151]
Here's a question for those recruiters, headhunters and HR People- Out of CCIE 1025-, how many of them do you think are still actively with the program, still working in the industry, still are at the top of their game (i.e., could go back in and take the OLD LAB again), and are the Crhme of the crop that they have so valued them as??!?!?! There are reasons of human physiology and psychology that proves that the old saying is true... If you don't keep practicing a skill or knowledge through repetition, you simply will loose your "edge". My hat is off to CCIE #1058 if he can still complete the OLD LAB blind folded and run circles around CCIE #10,269 in regards to the complex multi-protocol setup of DECNet, IPX, SNA, IP (w/ BGP, OSPF, EIGRP), and AppleTalk for a 8-10+ router network that was the result of 2 or more multi-hundred-thousand-node companies merging. But I must insert my own pessimism that I seriously doubt this is the case. This could be for any number of reasons, but I'm sure the number one reason is that it was too time-consuming and expensive to maintain such "prestige". Not to mention, they probably got laid off for one reason or another in the past 3-5 years. Headhunters and Recruiters are more arrogant than those CCIE's that have been minted in the past 24 months. And they've been that way for at least the last decade. An engineer with Blah-blah-blah certifications is nothing but a potential for them making a huge commission for "hooking up" that engineer with the employer. And because of this arrogance, they have these BS ideals that CCIE# 6328 is truly expert, and CCIE #10524 doesn't deserve the respect of knowing much more than how to power on a piece of Cisco equipment. To put in your analogy format, that's like saying the M.D. that got his PHD 20 years ago, but got bored with continually going back to those medical conferences and continued education on advances in medical science is more preferential than the Doctor that has been practicing medicine for only the past 3 years. I bet is that the older Doc is going to continue performing "tried and true" procedures that have a greater risk of failure or permanent damage of some sort (could be scars, amputated limb, etc.) than the younger Doc that is current with procedures that result in more favorable outcomes for the same medical situations. NRF- You've said yourself in the past that Cisco has changed the CCIE program for financial reasons, be it for increased revenue or wiser financial efficiency in maintaining the equipment, facilities, etc. What about simple relevance? True, not as many routing protocol technologies are being tested on... but they make up for that by testing on new technologies such as Voice, Security, etc. So, because Cisco tests on new technologies, that makes it acceptable for the "market" and all those Headhunters, Recruiters, and HR folks to deem the CCIE not as valuable as it once was?!? They obviously have a jaded/ill-informed point of reference in comparing the "old" with the "new". Out of curiosity, just exactly what are the names of all these "brain-dump" groups/sites that make the CCIE LAB a cake-walk?!? If they are so common knowledge, I have a hard time believing that Cisco would allow them to continue operating. I'm sure Mr. Chambers is intelligent enough to look ahead and realize he would be preempting the demise of his own company if his company perpetuated the cycle of braindump-prepared CCIEs will equal less positive reputation for support and value of the products themselves. Or in more simplistic terms, surely he's smart enough to foresee the cause-and-effect scenario of allowing hundreds of CCIE's to be minted per month. If the economy is so dismal for a majority (read 70%+) of the country, especially the IT industry, just exactly how are all these New CCIE's affording to pay for braindump memberships, Bootcamps, rack rentals and/or personal lab purchases to prepare for the O-so-easy CCIE LAB?!?! I guess my point is, I must be continuing to perpetuate myself in this little naove bubble that makes me have a hard time believing/accepting the CCIE program is being overran in record time with wannabe CCIE's that just simply "bought" their certification rather than earning it. Give us some facts that can give merit to the "free market's" delusion that Computer Networking isn't worth the nickel it used to be. And yes, I believe the "free market" is under delusional control. Most of which has been perpetuated by the "Dot.Bomb" era (which has been nothing but pessimistic influence of the US Media [and yes, I know part of it was a result of bad financial decisions by some start-up companies and some of the Telco's, but the ripple affects caused in short by the media is why all the other businesses have experienced demise]). Real Estate and Oil had its "big boom" period too, but that hasn't seemed to have had an affect on the purchases of houses and gas in the past 15 years..
RE: number of CCIE [7:70151]
Ok, just so you'll(NRF) be happy. I, for one, would NOT want to trade my Higher Number CCIE designation for a lower number designation. Call me stupid, ignorant, clueless, whatever... but I simply do not see the "value" in having a lower number. To me, they are all the same- every last number issued (and yes, I'm being brutally honest with you and myself, as I don't know of any other way:-]). It's the person maintaining the certification that has to answer to the rest of the CCIE clan when they don't maintain the expertise. And just so you know, all those recruiters, HR folk, and the such get their ideas/beliefs about the "value"/credibility of ANY certification from hear-say, colleagues that don't necessarily have the true low-down on the subject themselves, advertising and individuals that perpetuate a statement such as "Certification X is not worth the paper it's written on because more often than not the individual holding said Certification probably doesn't have the skill to back it up". I have met my fair share of individuals that did not have the skills that their certifications indicated they had, and I have also met my fair share of individuals that were top notch, but I don't have the mentality of already deciding that "well, 'they' all say the MCSE is just a paper-cert and isn't worth a dime, so I wasted my time getting mine" nor do I behave the same for my CCNP certification. I DO believe though that with the "market" and "economy" the way it is, that even though there are 100,000 souls that have acquired the MCSE designation and approx. 40,000 (not an exact number- I couldn't find it on Cisco's site) souls have acquired the CCNP designation, that there simply are not that many individuals still pursuing IT careers. So, I'm not too entirely concerned with competition. I think the real issue at hand for hire-ability is simply a question of how cheap the next HR/Recruiter wants to hire the IT engineer for. But of course, hasn't that always been the case!?!?! :-) Bottom line (for me at least) is that I am comfortable with my certifications, as I earned them fair and square (read no cheat-sheets, brain dumps, etc.), and I'll feel the same way for the CCIE when I obtain it. If the HR/Recruiter Dolt wants to get picky with my "Numbers", I'll simply insist upon the hiring manager providing a technical interview to verify my skills. If I don't even get the benefit of the request because the HR/Recruiter Dolt tossed my Resume/Application in the trash based solely on this lack of "lower numbers" BS, then that company wasn't worth working for anyway. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to get back to trying to obtain my High-Number CCIE designation (which will take at least another year). -Oh, yeah, and one more thing, I seem to have a keen knack for troubleshooting, so I think I'm gonna fit right in with the likes of those "lower number" CCIEs that may or may not feel like I am as good as them because I only had a 1-day LAB. They simply have an insecurity issue to deal with, so they can just get over it.

At the end of the day you are refusing to deal with the issues at hand. Whether you choose to attack my motives or my character - whatever you want to call it - it's still out of bounds. You are either talking about the actual issues at hand, or you're not. Simple as that. Besides, character and motives are basically one and the same. Wouldn't somebody with bad character necessarily have bad motives? Is there really such a thing as a guy with bad character having good motives? Or vice versa? I don't think so. So really, when you say that you're questioning my motives but not my character, that's really a distinction without a difference. Look, the bottom line is this.

In fact, you could easily say quite the opposite - I have said several times that certain certifications, namely low-number CCIE's, are in fact quite valuable. So how does that jive with your accusation that I am somehow painting all certifications as worthless, when in fact I have singled out a certification subset as worthy? Oh, but I get it, you keep insisting that I am actually bashing all certs as a "stealth undercurrent thesis", despite the fact that I think everybody in this ng would agree that I don't exactly "do" stealth. If I want to say something, I'm going to say it. Here's an idea, Jack. Instead of debating me on what you believe the undercurrents of my words are saying, why not debate me on what I'm ACTUALLY saying?

RE: Network Lag on Cisco? [7:70648]
Anil- I'll try to take a stab at this... For your network: Verify that you are not experiencing packet loss on the uplink from your Procurve switch to the Cisco Router. Make sure you have the speed and duplex setting hard-coded on each end. Aside from that, I would look into congestion management, as you may need to implement CBWFQ on the Router (assuming that the telnet sessions have lag, and are having to cross the T1 circuit. I seriously doubt this would be the issue on the Ethernet/FastEthernet interface. In fact, if Telnet is lagging from inside the network and the only device that has to be crossed is the switch, I'd check the connection between the Linux box and the switch, as well as the Subnet Mask/Default Gateway to ensure those are set correctly. For the friend's network: See "aside from that,..." comment above.

RE: Cisco exam 9E0-111 or 642-521 [7:71048]
Kailash- Your answers are best answered by contacting Cisco at the Certification and Training number (see website for number). As far as the question of which test to take, it's simple. If 9E0-111 expires Sept. 30, and you are still pursuing the Firewall Specialist cert, then you have to take whatever exam is available- it's that simple. If an exam is indicated to expire by X Date, that means it won't be offered after that date. The logical step (in my opinion) is to take the newest exam, so that you will have the most current exam on your record. This ensures that you will not be behind the curve on Cisco's certification track updates that may make a certain Cert Title obsolete/expire in a time table that you aren't satisfied with accepting. As far as test difficulty, that varies by test taker. If you are well experienced in the technology, then you'll obviously do well on the exam. If you are not so familiar with it, then you'll either pass by a slim margin, or you'll simply fail. My motto is: Don't take the exam until you really know the subject material like the back of your hand. Just my 2 cents.

As far as the original question, so much depends on your experience level, the geographical location, things like holding a degree (or not). Strong candidates that have lots of experience, are well educated, and are in places can still pull nice salaries.

RE: Lock out by PIX [7:56342]
... to keep from being locked out, you should remove the crypto map from the interface, i.e., "no crypto map interface outside". This will kill any new crypto sessions from being initiated, and I am not sure if it also kills the current crypto sessions, but it will keep you from being locked out. If you don't do this, you will experience the problem you are having. The PIX is still functioning, and doing its job, its just doing its job extra well now because it has no crypto definitions to run against in its process of analyzing packets coming in from the outside.

RE: ack attack or config prob? [7:56341]
I don't have an answer to your question, though it does sound like a DoS attack to me... My only input is that if you are running NT 4.0 Servers, definitely ensure they are running Service Pack 6a, which you can get from MS's site. Also, if you are running Exchange, make sure you have SP 4 installed, as it fixes several issues relating to some critical Exchange functions. For more info, review the release notes for both service packs before installing. Let us know what the ISP's security folks find... this would be an interesting learning experience. -Mark -Original Message- From: Garrett Allen [mailto:garrett.allen@;erols.com] Sent: Friday, October 25, 2002 10:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: ack attack or config prob?

RE: how to telnet to other FROM PIX? [7:56435]
Kenny, ...Never had working on a PIX that didn't have any Encryption installed, I wouldn't know if it is absolutely true that you have to have it just to use the GUI, but if the requirements are such, then you need to go onto Cisco's website and apply for the free DES license key. After that, if you want to connect to a remote PIX using the GUI, you will need to follow the cook-book solution Cisco has posted on CCO for establishing a VPN tunnel between the two PIXen in question, and then you can use the GUI to remotely manage the other PIX. Your best bet is to just forget about the GUI for now, and set up SSH on each PIX, and connect using that. Learn the CLI well, and then use the GUI for all it really is good for- Monitoring functions. My biggest pet peeve is that the GUI does not support ALIAS commands in your PIX config... as well as a few other items like the such that are more advanced. For the time setting, just set the clock using the following syntax: Usage: clock set { | } clock summer-time recurring [ ] [] clock summer-time date { | } { | } [] no clock summer-time clock timezone [] no clock timezone show clock [detail] Hope that helps.

RE: PIX site-to-site VPN question... [7:57648]
The only way that you could put private addresses on the OUTSIDE interface of the PIX (Site A), and still successfully set up a Tunnel to another PIX across the internet that is behind an edge router of your own control (Site B), is to build a GRE Tunnel between the Edge Routers. EX: Public Addresses PIX1(outside)(e0)R1(e1)-INTERNET(e1)R2(e0)-(outside)PIX2 Pvt. Addresses G R E Tunnel Pvt. Addresses If you tried to set up NAT on the two Edge Routers to Static Translate for the PIX Hosts on their outside interfaces, the Tunnel would never establish. Even though you would define the Crypto Peer as a public address, when the packet arrives at the far side, it would have the private address headers, and thus the tunnel would never come up, and is why you would need a GRE Tunnel between the two routers to use private addresses between the two PIXen end-points. I have set up the scenario you speak of in production, but the ISP assigned a /30 for the routers connecting to the ISP, AND they assigned /27's for the customer's own use. So, with this, I configured the S0 interfaces of each router as part of the /30's, and configured the Fa0 interfaces of the Routers and the Pix Outside interfaces as hosts in the /27 blocks that were assigned to each site, while creating a PAT pool and NAT statics for appropriate hosts behind the PIX. The "Inside"/DMZ side of the PIXen were configured with RFC1918 addresses. Site to Site VPN's were established using the Public IP addresses on the "Outside" interface of each PIX.

Andrew- Without having done this, I could be wrong, but from your excerpt "You can think of the ephones with the numbers that were assigned to the ephone-dn's as FXS ports on the routers.", I would say then that all you have to do is create your dial-plan, and then define VOIP Dial-peers with the destination target being the IP address of the IP Phones. If it is that simple, then you will up and running in a heartbeat. Be sure and look at cisco's router to router (FXS to FXS) dial-peer samples to get an idea of your syntax.

RE: I seems Confused.....Peer-to-to TCP/IP Network [7:58255]
Check your subnet masks for each computer. Either specify Computer B as the default gateway for Computer A and vice-versa, or don't specify a default gateway at all. After that, you have to configure the lmhosts/hosts files if you want to resolve machine names between each other (quickly).

RE: I seems Confused.....Peer-to-to TCP/IP Network [7:58255]
Oletu- What you are trying to do is not impossible. Many of us do this all the time to migrate data from one machine to another without burdening the Hub-based LAN or if the computer is all by itself and is being upgraded. Case in point is the situation where a Win9x/Pentium 166Mhz workstation is being replaced with a Windows XP/Pentium III 1.8Ghz workstation... NetBEUI isn't a protocol option on XP, as it isn't supported anymore- So, it's TCP/IP or IPX! Configuration of each computer is correct; the fact that you can operate with success running NetBEUI says that your physical layer is also solid, i.e., NIC's and Cross-over cable. Next thing to do is (for informational purposes) to 'route print' or a 'netstat -r' at the command line to determine the TCP/IP stack has proper routing information. Optionally issue the 'nbtstat -c' or 'nbtstat -r' to see if you are getting any netbios caching... After collecting this information, I would remove the TCP/IP protocol, reboot, reinstall TCP/IP protocol, install most recent SP for OS, and test again... If that doesn't resolve the problem, then seek out replacement drivers for the NIC(s). This pretty much addresses every possibility of failure between two Windows-based computers that are directly connected to each other with a cross-over cable. ... One other thought- You wouldn't have some kind of personal firewall installed/previously installed on either one of these computers by chance, would you!?!?! I have seen all kinds of crazy stuff occur on MS boxes that had had any of the different flavors of "Personal Firewalls" installed, which usually required complete removal of the TCP/IP protocol, and then sifting through the networking portion of the registry to recover the machine. The alternative was to reinstall the OS from scratch. The firewalls in question were the Norton Personal Firewall, the Network Associates Desktop Firewall, BlackIce, and one other I can't recall the name of. Just some extra info to chew on for possibility.

A newbie could connect the hubs in such a way that there was a loop. And it could indeed cause problems due to the fact that a hub doesn't make any intelligent decisions about what it forwards, as you say, and doesn't participate in higher-layer loop-avoidance solutions such as STP, Dijkstra, split horizon, etc. There would be nothing to stop the looping bits. The very idea makes me cringe. :-) It's kind of funny that nobody thinks about this. A network of hubs must be designed in a hierarchical fashion. I guess that is just second-nature to people who grew up with hubs. When hubs entered the market they allowed us to move away from the ubiquitous bus topology and into a star (hub-and-spoke) topology. They allowed us to start using the structured cabling that AT&T and other vendors were starting to install, rather than the Christmas-tree-lights topology so popular with coax cable and so prone to problems. As networks grew, it became necessary to connect multiple hubs. The term that was often used was "cascating hubs." Hubs cascaed from other hubs, within the rules related to Ethernet propagation delay and collision detection.

I've been working with both Checkpoint and Pix firewalls. I even build a few "franken" pix firewalls so that I can learn as much as I can about Cisco Pix firewalls. The "franken" pix firewall actually help me landed my current job that pays 100k/year. Both CheckPoint and Pix firewalls have its strength and weaknesses. I agree that Cisco TAC is much superior than CheckPoint support. The "no text configuration" that you refer to in CheckPoint, you must be refered to running CheckPoint on Winblows platforms. NEVER RUN FIREWALL ON A GENERAL PURPOSE OPERATING SYSTEM. If you worry about cost, check out CheckPoint SecurePlatform. If you are "unix" literate, does the term "tcpdump" mean anything to you? That's how you troubleshoot my friend. Now if you are talking about cost, Cisco Pix will beat CheckPoint by a long shot in term of performance for your $. However, for a small/medium business, Checkpoint does come with a lot of features such as URL filtering (native), http load balancing, etc which Pix doesn't have (without 3rd party products). For enterprise environment, CheckPoint does come with ClusterXL (aka, load-sharing or Active/Active Firewall), which again, Pix doesn't support. Last but not least, CheckPoint does have a very nice Management piece called "provider-1" that Cisco Pix doesn't have. I do have to say that the price for CP products is totally "outrageous"; however, CP is a good product. In terms of hardware product, you can run CheckPoint on Nokia Platforms which is very stable and proven product. New version of Nokia firewalls do come with Flash instead of hard-drive so that the reliability is very high. Nokia is a big partner with CP. You can get CP support if you purchase Nokia firewalls from Nokia. Nokia TAC is just as good as Cisco TAC. I've completed my first week at my new job as a Security Engineer and I am amazed at the # of Cisco Certified folks at my company that are completely incompetent and downright clueless at what they can do. We are a consulting company and being in the consulting business, you are forced to know pretty much about everything. I have a couple of CCIEs in the office came to me and ask me how to restart sendmail and postfix (we are a linux shop) in linux. Another CCIE asked me how to use "nmap" in unix. The last one is down right funny, one CCIE asked how to start Apache in Solaris. It just seems to me like R&S are all they know and nothing else. We also do R&S here but at these times, demands for those have not been that great. Therefore, we have to branch into other things such as Security (PIX, CheckPoint, Wireless, IDS, etc...) I brought these issues to my boss attention last wednesday and on thursay he ordered me to 'clean' house. The first thing I did was to send "pink" slips to all 4 CCIEs in the group and told them that they are fired because they don't know anything other than R&S. They were making $130k/year and sucking almost all of our budget. My advice to everyone out there is to keeping learning other things in addition to the R&S. The market for CCIEs is not as good as it used to be. You better know other things especially Unix and Firewalls than just merely R&S. There will be lot of good peopel competing for the same jobs and the only way you can show the potential employers that you are better than the other guy is by showing them that you know other things not just R&S.

RE: PIX and the Activation Key [7:59574]
Depending on the version of PIX code the unit is running, you might not have to do too much. First, go to your PIX, and issue the 'Show Version' command. If you are running 6.1 or higher (I believe), you can go into config mode and issue the 'activation-key' command followed by the 4 sets of alpha-numeric characters. This will "install" the 3DES license on the PIX. The alpha-numerics you enter are not derived from the "official-looking document". Rather, you are supposed to go onto the CCO site, and under the PIX registration page, you will have a link for requesting your PIX Activation Code. You submit the Serial Number of the PIX (found on the back or bottom of the unit) and the alpha-numerics found on the "document". In return, you'll receive an email with the activation code. That activation code is what you enter at the PIX console. Now, all the code acquisition process aside, if you are running an older version of PIX OS, then you have to tftp the PIX OS to a tftp or http server, and then pull it back from the tftp/http server while in ROMMON mode. This basically is like you're installing the PIX OS. At the end of the download process to the PIX, and right after you reboot it, you'll be prompted to enter new activation keys. This is where you enter the alpha-numerics acquired from Cisco via Email.

RE: PIX and the Activation Key [7:59610]
If you chose the "Register for purchased Feature Upgrade..." (which is found on the link that follows) and was then prompted with the output listed below the link, then you were in the correct place. You have to register the 3DES license you purchased. To register the license, you have to provide the CCO Account information of the client who purchased the Firewall (Firewall has to be registered to the owner of the firewall, and thus the owner has to have their own CCO Account). The exception to this rule is if your company is providing managed services for the firewall, which includes you providing the firewall appliance yourself. www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Support/browse/psp_view.pl?p=Hardware:PIX&s=Softwa re_Configuration "License Registration This page is for use when you have purchased and received a PIX Firewall Connection Count or Feature License Upgrade. New PIX owners do not need to use this page - only those users who have purchased a Connection Count or Feature License Upgrade." The part about New PIX owners is deceiving because it should indicate that the rule applies to new PIX owners that purchased the firewall as a 3DES bundle with the 3DES Licensing already installed. You still have to register the PIX to your company/client's company, which should automatically associate the 3DES licensing with your unit by Serial Number of the unit itself. If it doesn't, then you still have to register the 3DES License. If you still have to register, it's recommended that you contact customer service to assist with the registration. My bet is (from experience) that you will have to go through the registration page mentioned above, and then follow the installation procedure mentioned in my previous post for activating the 3DES license. Just a note- When you issue the Show Version command on the PIX, it should give you a list of features Enabled or Disabled. If you see Enabled following to the right of the 3DES entry, then you know for sure your 3des license has been installed. An example follows: Licensed Features: Failover: Disabled VPN-DES:Enabled VPN-3DES: Enabled*** Maximum Interfaces: 2 Cut-through Proxy: Enabled Guards: Enabled URL-filtering: Enabled Inside Hosts: 10 Throughput: Limited IKE peers: 5 This is from my PIX 501 with 3DES License installed.

Below is a brief description of what occurred and the fix. First, thanks to all that responded to me. As previously mentioned, I had an attack on a customer of mines network that was showing up as follows: SrcIfSrcIPaddressDstIfDstIPaddressPr SrcP DstP Pkts Fa0/1127.0.0.124 Se1/2.500108.122.0.0 00 285 The above capture is just 1 of a few hundred packets similar to it and all coming from a different source address on the 127.0.0.0 network. The amount of traffic was so large that at times it peaked to over 20MB and as a result it overran my WAN interfaces causing BGP to flap / reconverge. Just when BGP got a chance to come back up and learned all 115000 routes, the attack occured again and the links would flap. Pingging the 127.0.0.x IP address from the edge router where the attack was initially spotted did not give me any replies. All I got were U. I was also not able to ping the broadcast address as all it gave me was U (unreachables) as well. There was no ARP entries on that router for that IP. I ended up enabling Netflow on the edge router (what you see above) in order to get more detail of what was going on. I got to see what interface it was coming in on so I applied an access-list on the router to filter out these packets. That allow the router and bgp to stabilize. The next thing was to move on to the switch that was connected to this FA0/1 interface. This switch has a router module, I ended up doing the same thing as I did on the edge router except this time I also connected to the sc0 interface and I enabled one port as the mirroring port on the switch and placed a PC with Etherreal to monitor everything that was destined to 108.122.0.0 and I finally got a MAC address. I issued the show CAM command on the switch and it told me where it came from which was another switch. I moved on to that other switch. The MAC address that was being reported was the MSM route module of that switch. I enabled netflow on it as well and I was able to see the vlan that the attack was coming on and the VLAN where it was destined to. Luckily there were only 2 PCs (Sun Spark Stations) on that vlan and both were compromised. I removed them from the network and all is well. I did also have MRTG which help some with identifying when the attack was going on and what direction it was coming on and with the ports that were being most heavily utilized. This network is pretty big so it was difficult to monitor all the ports that were suspects. Thank you all again for your help. As far as the runt packets are concerned, to tell you the truth, I noticed that but did not pay to much attention to that part of the Netflow output since I was all wrapped up on tracking down where these packets were coming in from. Right now packets with size of 1-32 account for about 50% of all traffic.

RE: accessing files [7:60109]
Spencer- >From your brief description, there could be a number of possibilities as to why you get timeouts. For the "visibility" of files via FTP... that's either a Firewall issue between your workstation and the near-end T1, a Firewall issue between the Server and the far-end T1, or the most likely issue- configuration/misconfiguration of the FTP Server itself to not allow LISTING access. Some FTP Servers (such as MS IIS) can be configured to allow READ access while at the same time disallowing LISTING access. The end result is your Web Browser/FTP Client won't display the contents of the directory... but if you already know the name of the file in that directory, you can still request a copy of it thru the READ Access attribute. Kinda like blindly reaching behind a cabinet for something that fell behind (and you say it fall behind)... you can't see it because of how close the cabinet is to the wall, but you can at least reach your arm behind to try grabbing it. For the timeout issues of larger files, I would look at the egress device (Hub or Switch) the Server is connected to for packet failures, the Egress Router for queuing misconfigurations or packet failures (specifically on the WAN interface). If there is a firewall on the Server side of the connection, check its configuration and log files for errors too. Do all of the same steps on the client side of the WAN Link. Hopefully, you'll spot the issue. It could always be as simple as a bad switch/hub port or a bad cable! Good Luck!

RE: Cry for help: Integrated circuit CSU config [7:60122]
Never configured a Paradyne CSU, but if it is anything like the Adtran units I've configured, then it should be pretty straight forward. You will be given information from your service provider(telco) about what timeslots/channels (DS0's) the data is running on, and what timeslots/channels the Voice is running on. You then configure the CSU accordingly. Ex: Channels 1-16 for FR Data, 17-23 for Voice. Your CSU will have a DSX-1 port that allows you to feed the data channels via a V.35 cable to your router. The CSU will also have a T1 port (possibly RJ-45/48) that you will connect via a straight-thru Cat5 cable to your PBX/PABX for Voice service. >From there, it's up to you to configure your Router and PBX to talk on those timeslots/channels. The CSU will take care of line-coding and framing (which you configure on the Paradyne) for the Data Side, and the Voice will be managed by the PBX and Telco.

Searching CCO's public web access will yield a wealth of information if you check it out. http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/29.html ... and to answer indirectly, VPN Clients will terminate (attach) their VPN tunnels to the PIX... so the outside interface address is what you would use for the VPN Clients. This means, that if you don't plan on hosting anything else behind the PIX for the world to access without a VPN connection, i.e., a web server for the public, you will automatically be doing PAT for all users behind the PIX accessing the Internet.

RE: PIX behind DSL router [7:60307]
Might I inject that, unless there is some sort of out of the ordinary DSL service configuration, you could perhaps enable bridging on the 675 and assign the public address of the DSL service to the Ethernet port on the 675. This would then make it possible (provided you have more than just one IP address assigned to the customer end of the circuit) for you to configure the outside interface of the PIX with a public address, and the inside with a private address. The alternative would be to purchase a SpeedStream modem (or some other compatible DSL modem) (off of e..b..a..y.. perhaps) and configure it for bridging. Then your public address would definitely be assigned to the outside interface of the PIX, and your problem solved.

RE: The effect of NAT on an interface [7:61178]
Chuck- What about TFTPing your changes in a "new" startup-config file, then reloading the router. If you are pretty certain your changes won't be bad afterwards, I don't see where you could go wrong. If you do have a programming issue with a route-map or acl, then you definitely are getting to visit the client router in the morning. :) My mentor has taught me a command that will always save your butt. When making the changes in the fashion you mentioned: 1st command to issue is "Reload in X" ; x=number of minutes specified. If you do this, you won't have to worry about getting locked out over-night. Also, create your new ACLs on the Router BEFORE you doing anything else. This way, you can change the command that implements the new ACL last, and you should be able to re-connect shortly afterwards. I've had fun with this while working on a IOS VPN solution- it was a rude awakening, and I had to call the client office to have them bounce the router that night. -Mark -Original Message- From: The Long and Winding Road [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 11:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The effect of NAT on an interface [7:61178] it's happened twice now, and the policy routing was removed from the interface, so I'm thinking the problem has to be the NAT configuration The problem: remote configuration of a router. Circumstances: remove poorly constructed access-lists. replace them with better constructed access-lists that are also in conformance with a system wide standard numbering convention. Change the route maps to reflect these new access-lists. one access-list determines whether or not a host on the inside can obtain a NAT translation. the other control policy routing inbound on the WAN interface. The process: 1) remove policy routing from the distant end WAN interface 2) delete old access-lists 3) delete old route-maps 4) paste in new access-lists 5) paste in the new route-maps at this point I lose connection with the router. I presume that because policy routing was disabled ( no ip policy route-map etc ) and the router was reloaded before step 2 was taken, that the problem is not with policy routing denying my own access. That leaves NAT. The ip nat outside configured on the WAN link of the remote router was in place.

Another CCNP is born... [7:48870]
Well, after many months of off-and-on studying as work would permit, I finally passed the Support exam to complete the CCNP chapter in my Cisco Career Certification saga. For those preparing for it, let me warn that it is not an easy exam. It's not that the technologies tested on are hard to learn, but rather the ambiguous questions posed to test your knowledge. There are more than a few questions that had me scratching my head and saying to myself "Huh!?!?" My advice... if you don't get to work with some of the technologies on a regular basis, then based on the Test outline on CCO, read up on more than one study source multiple times until you are dreaming of what does what and how to tell what from what. IF that isn't ambiguous enough... Gotta love the Cisco NDA. Any way, I'm now off to study the CCDA and CSS1 concurrently :-) Good luck to all those planning to take the Support exam in the near future... it's one nasty exam. Oh, I must also give thanks to all that have posted on this forum for the last 2 years I've been faithfully monitoring it. All of your input has been quite valuable. If you want a nice alternative to the Boson Exams for this test... I would highly recommend CCXXProductions.com! Their study materials are top notch... Not to mention their support staff for updates.

RE: Catalyst 5500 VLAN Configuration [7:48874]
For each VLAN, you have to define it on the Switch Port, i.e., if you have 10 vlans, and you have a 12, 24, or 48 port module for module 6, than you need to decide your vlan assignment, and then make it so on a per port basis. You won't assign an IP Address to the Switch Port, but you will assign VLAN 2 to say port 6/2, VLAN 3 to Port 6/3, etc. If you intend to route between VLANs, then you will either need the applicable route-switch-module for the model switch you are working with, or a router that supports the same trunking features as the switch (ISL or dot1q) On the router or the route-switch module, you will configure Sub-interfaces that will define the subnet, and vlan and what encapsulation type you are using for that vlan. Good luck on your studies.

RE: Cisco command [7:49152]
GEORGE- This has been asked at least 6 times in the past 12 months. You should check the archives, if they are available. The short and quick answer is, on most low end and midrange routers- NO. On a few of the high-end routers (i.e., GSR's, 7200 VXRs, etc.), the answer is YES (according to other list members). If you issue the Show Diag or Show Diag cbus command, you can retrieve Serial Number information of the System Board, and any Line Cards such as NM's (Net Modules) and WIC's/VIC's, PA's, etc. ... But these Serial Numbers are NOT the same as the Serial Number on the Chassis of the Router, which is needed for Tech Support calls with Cisco TAC, as well as registering SMART-NET contracts. Also, I might add, the suggestion to solve this little issue is to put in the description of a Loopback interface the Serial Information from the chassis. That way, if you need that information which was not documented before deployment of the node to a remote location, you could retrieve it by terminal session and viewing the config. Like I said, check the archives for a definitive answer on the few platforms mentioned, or open a Level 4 Case with Cisco TAC to get the answer direct from the horses mouth. Now, I must say, I think I'm the first person to mention the Level 4 Case alternative on this list... :) Guess those Support studies paid off; Cisco would be proud :) -Mark Odette II CCNP, MCSE 2K/4.0, blah, blah, blah. -Original Message- From: GEORGE [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2002 1:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: cisco command [7:49152] Is their a cisco command that will show you the serial number of the router Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=49166&t=49152 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

One thing for sure, I got more documentation than I realized I ordered- and it was all free. I did not find an indication of charge for shipping or the docs themselves. Now I have enough documentation to fill 5 bookshelves! ... and yes, part of that documentation is the 12.2 docs-- config guide, debug docs, command guide, Voice-Video-Fax docs, and the list goes on. All of it is soft-cover though, so don't expect hard-cover. I received 1 very large box, a medium sized box, several small boxes and bubble envelopes... 11 pieces in all. Some of that was Voice docs though... ICS 7750, IP Phones, Call Manager, CiscoWorks for Voice, etc. I figured, if it was free, and I want to familiarize myself with that stuff for the future, why the heck not order it!

I am the same way about having hard-copy to read from...

Indeed, you hit the nail on the head as to why I ordered all the Docs I did: To have the resources to support just about anything I or my engineers may come across. But nothing replaces a properly placed TAC call. All of these Docs are in manual format with soft-cover though, so it's not like we have a huge library of Cisco Press-style books to reference.

RE: CCIE Security Lab [7:17848]
May I ad this little edict that "Buggy/Unreliable OS's" is just a bad wrap that the community has labeled to MS "WINDOWS"... without much explanation of WHAT was the "unreliability". Indeed, Security is a different story, and there is plenty of "reliable" argument to that topic... but to constantly perpetuate this argument that "Windows" is unreliable and buggy makes me ill. What makes the story of it being buggy/unreliable has always been related to device drivers that sloppy-a$$ programmers whip out for sub-standard chipsets on the Intel platform running "Windows". Not to mention, the OS's that have been the most unreliable/buggy have been the desktop OS's- NOT the Server platform Windows NT. If you think that you should use that Windows 98 box as your company's Server- it's your own stupid fault for all the headaches that are derived from therein. I've worked predominantly in the NT environment for over 8 years, going through the NT 3.51, 4.0, and now Windows 2000 version of the server platform, and I ONLY have had servers crash when a vendor-specific device driver was updated (ahem, Intel ironically was the culprit, and they were supposed to be the other half of the "Win-tel" agreement). I've also maintained a fair share of different-flavored *nix boxes that performed similar functions, for which they suffered the same ailments- bad drivers for add-on hardware, whether it be NIC's, RAID Controllers, Telephony boards, or power failure. One thing for sure, the NT box didn't spend 30 minutes spewing INODE errors all over the place once power was restored... unlike the AT&T Unix brothers did... And yes, I know, NT uses a journaling file system as opposed to the file system Unix uses. But for heaven's sake! The DB application on the *nix box should have the corruption issues to worry about, NOT the OS! Most of these Windows NT Servers under my command were Computer Telephony systems, a.k.a., IVR's. They ran like a champ for several years without a reboot... the ones that ran for shorter periods were maintenance reboots for Service Packs or because of Power Failure to the location the box was residing. These servers were both DEC Alpha's and Intel-based OEM and Clone machines. As I said before, just as much as it is a problem for the *nix platform, the "things" that make the OS unreliable is the cheap hardware and sloppy device drivers that are applied to the system. Proper installation, and hardening of the OS for the specific purpose it is supporting (read don't use the same machine you've set up as your server as your desktop too, installing all kinds of non-server related programs on it like "free-ware" and demos of programs found in the center or back of some periodical you got in the mail), and the Windows NT / 2000 Server will be just as stable as the next implementation of Solaris on a Sparc station. And again, as Chuck pointed out, if the Applications developed to run on the Windows NT / 2000 platform were developed properly, than the servers would be reliable in that respect too. I'm not a programmer by any means, but from what I've observed, you can have just as many crashes for building crappy DLL's as you can from improper handling/use of C library modules on a *nix box. Not to mention, both types of programmers need to know how to program for Memory Address handling. But who am I to argue... the whole slamming of "Windblows" is probably just because some bull-headed *nix lackey is just pi$$ed off he can't go rebuild the kernel half a dozen times to "tweak" the system on "Windows". And as a final note, I do maintain the argument that ALL of the OS's out there have their own place in the industry; there isn't just ONE O.S. that addresses all the use/needs of any particular business (keeping Support in mind). Now- Back to our regularly scheduled commentary on Cisco Studies. -Mark -Original Message- From: nrf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 12:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: CCIE Security Lab [7:17848] Buggy/unreliable software is indeed the same anywhere. But when combined with buggy/unreliable OS's, now we're talking about a solution that is REALLY buggy and unreliable. For example, if your software is only guaranteed to run at 3 9's, and your OS is also only guaranteed to run at 3 9's, then overall we're talking about a less-than-3-9's of a solution. You can actually run packetized voice very reliably, and not just for toll bypass (although it is definitely true that toll-bypass is the easiest and most mature kind of packetized voice to do). The key is that you have to design things in a certain way to maximize your reliability. Many carriers like SBC use packetized voice with soft-switch signalling in certain parts of their network, and then you have packetized voice wholesalers like Ibasis that have massive available voice capacity and a good reputation for reliability.

RE: Can get it to work (Pix 515 behind cable modem [7:49744]
Kevin- Disregard my last post... I read your message wayyy to quickly, and interpreted it to be asking why you were getting PAT results rather than NAT as expected. In reflection, I realize what you are actually asking, and also realize that the configuration is missing Access Lists or Conduits. Without those, you're going nowhere on the "NET". The 515 should have come with a couple of PIX manuals (probably for 6.1, but that's ok). Look at the chapter on Access-lists, as this is where Cisco is headed for primary/default config of the PIX. It used to be Conduits were used in place of the Access Lists, and so far, the 6.1 and 6.2 code are backwards compatible for Conduits usage. If you are still confused after your reading, try firing up the PDM and adding an access list for allowing ICMP echo reply packets back in the outside interface, and ICMP any packets out the inside interface. IIRC, the PDM will generate the explicit allow IP acl for the inside interface by default. Save your changes, get out of PDM, and go telnet back to the PIX to study the changes. At the same time, see if you can get to the net now! Also, I'd verify you WAN configuration by issuing a Show Route command in Exec Mode this will id your outside int. ip address, and its def. gw., as well as the default route for 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 traffic.

RE: PIX 501 and enabling DES [7:49705]
NetEng- If you just bought the 501, you should be under warranty, and can call TAC for "Special Access" download code, and then go to the Software Center and enter the code they gave you to gain access to downloading a copy of the current software on your PIX... you might even get them to allow you downloading the newer code for free. Also, I think (haven't tried this myself) you can tftp the current flash image OFF of the PIX for 'backup' purposes, and then tftp it back onto it for your "re-installation" of the PIX OS, giving you the opportunity to put in your DES key. Since you get warranty support from TAC, I'd call them and have them assist you on this matter. I'm sure you'll be happy with their support service.

RE: CCIE Experiences? My Road Ahead... [7:50139]
Rob- I think it is feasible without the 10 years experience working for an ISP. In fact, I've been working with Cisco equipment off and on at first, but then more consistently for the past 6 years. I took my time in completing my CCNP (almost 2 years from the point of CCNA), and probably could have gotten it sooner if I had really applied myself. For the CCIE, this discussion has been mulled over at least 4 times in the past 6 months. The bottom line is, half of the CCIE preparation is book-study... pure "Cisco" Academics. But the other half is real experience working on the equipment for a considerable amount of time, whether it be more in production and less in lab racks, or vice versa. One of the list contributors (NRF) I'm sure will comment on his definition of "Lab Rat", and how he believes that a considerable amount of employers are not interested in Lab Rats for CCIE's**. It's a catch 22 in this respect, of which I'm sure you can already understand. ** no need to rehash this topic NRF :) Personally, I think you can reasonably obtain the CCIE in 18 months, and really be a well developed CCIE. Do keep in mind though, the CCIE is not the top of the mountain, but rather just one of the summits in your career.

RE: Hardware requirement for Cisco CallManager [7:50142]
IIRC, Cisco will only support the OEM Servers they have certified the CM product to run on. Currently, the only vendor certified is Compaq. Other vendors are "in the works" for certification, and include IBM and HP. HP may not be true anymore, based on a statement made from a colleague recently. He said that an HP Sales person paid a visit to his office, and summarized what platforms were being discontinued as a result of their merger with Compaq-- the HP Server platform was being dropped in favor of Compaq's Proliant line.

RE: TCP sequence numbers question [7:49535]
I have the same problem, of which I'm still searching for an answer. :( The "Client" is SBClient (a fancy GUI program for Telnet), and the Server is Unidata DB server running on NT 4.0 with SP6a and the Unidata server has its own Telnet Service that appears to be running on the standard port. Client connections are made across a Site-to-Site VPN (PIX to PIX/LAN to LAN), only 1 or 2 users have their sessions terminated without request from the Server Admin or the Client. All information gathered seems to indicate that after a period of idle time, the connection is dropped. My problem is, I've placed a sniffer (Ethereal) on both ends of the connection (but not simultaneously) with hopes of finding the root of the disconnect, but am not able to do so thus far. The weird thing is, it seems like when the particular user that experiences these random disconnects logs into the system, I see a Multicast Join advertisement appear. If they normally log out of the system (telnet app), I see a Multicast Leave advertisement If anyone has a similar setup and can shed some light on where I can go look to figure this out, I'd appreciate it. For clarity, the ASCII art depicts the layout: Telnet Server (Unidata DB Server) | --PIX-- | | - RouterA | | | V --Internet-- | P | | N - RouterB | | | -- PIX -- | - SBClient (Win98 workstations) Also, when the SBClient "gets suddenly disconnected", the Server still thinks the user is connected. When the user re-connects to the server with the SBClient telnet app, the server starts a NEW session for the same user id, and therefore eats up another license connection. The now "orphaned" old session has to be manually killed by the Admin on the Server. These disconnects only occur with users across the VPN- local users are not affected. Short of coming up with a selective debug (if its even possible) and logging debug output for the specific users' telnet sessions over a period of time, I'm at a loss as to how I can figure out and solve this problem. Note: ONLY 1 or 2 Users at each of four remote sites experience this issue... and it's always the same users. This whole setup did work without a problem when the remote users were connected via Frame Relay P-t-P connections... but has exhibited this issue since the topology changed to VPNs and dropping the FR connections. Also- I've opened a TAC case, but TAC pointed me back to the server, and said "confirm whether or not the Server's Telnet service operates with unicast, or broadcast/multicast and get back with us. Also run a sniffer to capture session traffic and check that for errors and then get back with us. The PIX does not pass broadcast or multicast traffic by design of its ASA process. If the server is using anything other than unicast for communications, reconfigure application server for unicast." So far my determination is that the Unidata Application Server's implementation of Telnet is TCP unicast. Am I wrong to understand telnet uses TCP-based unicast communications?? TIA for any advice or ideas on how to solve this problem. -Mark -Original Message- From: sam sneed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 11:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: TCP sequence numbers question [7:49535] How does the other host know its a keepalive? I do not see any keepalive fields in the TCP packet, perhaps a TCP option? I think I was more confused by how the sequence #'s are incremented and ack'd. I read in Stevens book " Since every byte that is exchanged is numbered, the acknowledgement number contains the next sequence number that the sender of the acknowledgement expects to receive. This is therefore the sequence number plus 1 of the last successfully received byte of data." So using the example below (host A 192.168.133.21, B 10.10.10.12), A sends 1 byte of data, last successful sent byte is 2653258021, shouldn't Host B ack (2653258021)+1 ? The problem I'm trying to solve is a TCP connection that unexpectedly terminates. Supposedly the client can detect this and reconnect to the server but there are problems. I started the keepalive thread last week related to the same issue. I thought our firewall may have droppped the connection from its state table after its timeout but this is not the case since it seems keepalives are sent every 30 seconds. 17:56:46.563514 O 192.168.133.21.5055 > 10.10.10.12.1617: P 2653258020:2653258021(1) ack 808512610 win 8760 (DF) 17:56:46.604328 I 10.10.10.12.1617 > 192.168.133.21.5055: . ack 2653258021 win 17520 (DF) 17:58:20.327090 O 192.168.133.21.5055 > 10.10.10.12.1617: P 2653258020:2653258021(1) ack 808512610 win 8760 (DF) 17:58:20.368296 I 10.10.10.12.1617 > 192.168.133.21.5055: . ack 2653258021 win 17520 (DF) 17:59:54.090651 O 192.168.133.21.5055 > 10.10.10.12.1617: P 2653258020:2653258021(1) ack 808512610 win 8760 (DF) 17:59:54.132170 I 10.10.10.12.1617 >
RE: IS-IS on CCNP routing exam ??? [7:49621]
Hinwoto- Welcome to the list! Obviously your question indicates you are new, as this question has been posed many times over the last 9 months. If you are not new, than might I suggest the Archives as research - provided they are available. :) To answer your question though: The BSCI exam is interchangeable with the CCNP and the CCIP certifications. It was added to /developed for the new CCIP designation, but was made applicable to the CCNP career track too, seeing as the only difference between it and the Routing exam is the IS-IS. It is doubtful that the BSCI exam will replace the Routing exam in the future, though it would make sense IMHO. And yes, you only need take one of the two exams to apply towards your CCIP or CCNP certifications. Good luck on your studies! -Mark Odette II CCNP, MCSE 4.0/2K, CompTia A+ -Original Message- From: hinwoto [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 1:05 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: IS-IS on CCNP routing exam ???

Please correct me if I'm wrong that we only need to take just one of them either 640-603 or 640-901 ). Can you guys taken BSCI exam share information about this exam ? Is BSCI going to replace the Routing exam in the future ?? It is good that Cisco include the IS-IS on the routing exam which will become tougher for CCNP candidate. cheers Hinwoto Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=50168&t=49621 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
