BGP load balancing questions [7:61095]

2003-01-15 Thread Robert Fowler
Hello groupstudy,
 
I've been banging my head against the wall and figured I would defer this
question to those of you more learned and experienced. Here is the the
scenario:
 
2 routers running BGP
Router 1 has a connection to ISP 1 and router 2 has a connection to ISP 2 
Each receives full routes.
Each provider has given us a class C address
Only the class C from provider 1 is actively used, because provider 2 will
probably be dropped eventually(ssshhh don't tell ARIN)
 
 
The class C is advertised to both ISPs, however ISP 1 aggregates this
address space so instead of being 1.1.1.x /24 it's 1.1.x.x /16 
This was checked using various looking glasses.
 
What that means is that traffic to my Class C will arrive primarily via ISP
2 because it will see the /24 I advertise though it. That is bad, for
various reasons. Mainly because we are charged by usage from ISP2, but also
because we are going to upgrade ISP1 to a fractional t3 and use ISP 2
primarily as a backup eventually. Also the traffic coming in is 90% via ISP
2 and 10% via ISP 1. 
 
If I remember from my studying so long ago, even prepending my AS number to
ISP 2 will not work, becuase it doesn't even make it to that criteria, but
rather see the /24 and chooses that route.

I searched some newsgroups, but amazingly enough nobody seemed to have this
issue. I saw someone who had a larger block than /24 and some suggestions
there but that would not work in this case.
 

Options not available:
Using the Class C from Carrier 2 to load balance using IP space and traffic
types
Getting a class C independant of a provider from ARIN. (That costs money :))
 
 
Robert

RE: Cisco routers and MRTG [7:56794]

2002-11-04 Thread Robert Fowler
MRTG reports in bytes not bits

1250 * 8 = 1
12500 * 8 = 10

I've found MRTG to be extremely accurate. We've just started using
Solarwinds in addition to MRTG. It looks a lot nicer and is easier to use
and isn't really all that expensive.

Folks,
I am using MRTG to pull cisco Router's snmp mibs.
On ehternet interface the graph shows the max speed of 1250.0K which is only
1.25 meg
and on Fastthernet is shows as 12.5 megs.
I am wondering why they don't show 10 meg and 100 megs respectively and
starting to suspect how accurate MRTG is.

IP subnet Tool - Slightly off topic [7:52999]

2002-09-10 Thread Robert Fowler

Good morning,
 
I've been using an excel spreadsheet to track about 100+ sites on our
network as far as subnetting etc. But we are going to be moving to a
standardized subnetting scheme and I was wondering if anyone had an access
database tool or other program that they would recommend for ip subnet
tracking so you don't use duplicates ranges when adding a site etc. Does
anyone know of a tool that will handle this?

RE: Can anyone break this Cisco 4912G password? [7:40505]

2002-04-05 Thread Robert Fowler

Boson has some free utilities that include a password breaker. IT won't work
if you have the high level encryption enabled. Someone posted some equipment
for sale once on e-bay. They gave a limited logon, and did a show config. I
cracked the password utility with the boson cracker and when it prompted for
a password for higher level stuff I entered it and it worked. I didn't do
anything to the machine of course, and I did let the seller know. But most
people are aware of it. Also another common password I found is the company

I'm not sure if this will help but here goes:

I used to work for a dotcom and we had to move our Datacenter from SiteA to
SiteB with 2 different address blocks. The problem you might say is if you
move the website what happens? Well we made a duplicate copy of the website
(minus the database) at site B and then used IIS forwarding to point to the
new site and put the Database under maintenance until we got it transferred
to Site B. Then we changed our DNS entries for the website and left the IIS
forwarding on for a few days.

We need to move about 30 servers from a offsite location to our data center.
The move of the servers needs to be done over the period of a month.  We

through an internet connection or wan link (both possible) we need to share
the ip block. It cannot be subnetted and must remain a single ip block.  We

RE: compress command unavailable on FR or hdlc intf??.....Why? [7:38770]

2002-03-19 Thread Robert Fowler

Page 314 Remote Access Book. - For HDLC links, STAC is the only available
choice.

Page 316 - For FRame RElay deployments, use the frame-relay payload-compress
command to enable STAC compression on an interface or a subinterface.

The reason that you can only use payload compression on a framer-relay
interface is becuase the header information needs to remain intact so it can
be read by the switches that the transmission crosses.

RE: CCNP exams [7:38097]

2002-03-13 Thread Robert Fowler

Brian,

It's a 3 year timer, not a two year timer for recertification. I got the
certification to compliment my experience, not to say that I know what I'm
doing because I have the CCNP certification. Those people that get it and
are entry level will be weeded out by hiring managers. Those that have
experience AND the certification can stand on their own from a hiring
managers standpoint. 

Even the certification and experience do not make that person an expert. The
CCNP exams CAN be passed by less than par individuals. That said, that is
why there is a high-level certification. The CCIE, which when combined with
real experience (pretty much required to pass), proves you are the cream of
the crop.

CCNA shows you want more and have started to learn the basics of routing.
CCNP shows you have at least a basic knowledge of how things work. I don't
think it shows that you can implement it. You need to have the experience to
back up the certification to show you can implement it. The CCIE can pretty
much be taken at face value, because almost anyone who has the certification
has the experience anyway, but in order to pass the lab you have to prove
something more. All the other certs simply pull you apart from other
candidates if you have a reasonable amount of real-world experience.

which was not long ago, now its changing to the 600 series. For some
people it takes a while to pass a CCNP exam, so I have not had enough
time to get a lot done in the 500 series, let alone switch to 600. I
know the 600 is not out yet, but still. Also here is a question, why
would someone want to take the last exam in the CCNP series, because
when you take the last exam, your 2 year timer starts ticking. Where is
the motivation there? I think I am just going to work on the course

SNIPPED

Passed Final Exam for CCNP ( Support ) [7:38018]

2002-03-12 Thread Robert Fowler

Hello,
 
I figured I'd let everyone know I've passed my final exam for my CCNP. Below
are answers to FAQ. Please note they are my personal opinions, not general
consensus.
 
1.  What order did you take the tests?
 
CCNA (07/00)
Switching (11/00)
Routing (04/01)
Remote Access (10/01)
Support (03/02)
 
2.  Why so long between the tests, did you fail any? 
 
I've never failed an exam in my life. I've taken 13 so far. I study for each
one and make sure I'm prepared. Unfortunately due to work, other obligations
and procrastination I didn't pass them sooner. It does make things more
difficult in some ways, but since I work with Cisco equipment daily, it
helps me keep fresh. 
 
3.  Which exams were the hardest?
 
They are listed easiest to hardest.
CCNA 
Switching
Remote Access
Support 
Routing
 
Support was more difficult than it had to be, since I waited so long between
tests and it has content based on knowing those other areas.
 
4.  What books and study methods did you use?
 
CCNA - Sybex
Switching - CiscoPress
Routing - CiscoPress
Remote Access - CiscoPress and ExamCram
Support - Sybex
 
Everything was self-study and on the job experience. I also use
brainbuzz.com for a final review before taking the test to make sure I
didn't miss anything, overall I wasn't too impressed with their content
though. Reading about how other people passed did help to give me
confidence. Each person will find a different study method that works for
them. I've never taken a training class for any of my certifications.
 
5.  How many years of experience do you have?
 
8 Years of IT experience as follows:
3 Years, Routing and Switching firewalls etc
3 Years, Servers RAS etc
2 Years, Desktop Support, Computer builds, Retail computer sales
 
6.  What's next?
 
Tough decision, I need to upgrade my MCSE (UGGG) since I still have to use
those skills. However I think the CCIE is of much more benefit to me. I have
to make sure I'm committed and really study for the CCIE. My work is going
to have training for the W2K stuff for our entire group so I've got to learn
it one way or the other. I'm going to try and get some training such as a
CCIE bootcamp. If anyone knows of a good bootcamp let me know. I'm leaning
toward pursuing my CCIE, but it'll be a tough road. I don't believe in
quitting, so if I start down that road I know I won't quit, but the high
probability of Lab failure frightens me. I hate to fail anything. 
 
7.  Did you get a raise etc?
 
Nope, as a matter of fact no one in our department is getting a raise at all
this year. I guess some of us are just happy to have a job. We were told we
should get year-end bonuses this year, something we didn't get last year.
 
8.  Who paid for the training etc?
 
The last few tests my employer has paid for, but the books I've paid for
simply so that they belong to me and I can keep them for reference.
 
 
 
I hope that helps anyone out there studying. Keep at it. The tests
themselves weren't as hard as I would have hoped. Passing on them is about
700 on a scale of 300 to 1000. That's pretty low, but at the same time the
quality of the questions was inferior to other exams. If you have a good
reading comprehension level you can probably gain 100 points off just that.
Maybe that's a skill they are looking for in certified people though. 
 
 
Robert Fowler - And here they are. A+ MCSE CCNP

I am trying to guide a customer through an aux port setup.
so far, we have the following in the router:

 modem InOut
 transport input all

 flowcontrol hardware
HOwever,when anyone calls the dial to number, the modem answers,
but nothing appears on the screen except a blinking cursor. The 
terminal session shows a status of connected.
I believe the attached modem is a USR 56k v.34 capable.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hey gang,

Servers database became corrupt thus preventing messages from being sent
out.  It has been fixed so if you do not see your posting, please resend.  I
have shipped more memory to InFlow.  Lon has agreed to install it for us.
This should help.   So by the way, the server will be down for a little
while tomorrow :-)

The truth is we desperately need some better equipment.  Currently we are
using a server I built for $500 dollars two years ago.  I purchased a used
Dell Server but need to upgrade the RAID array and a few other things before
putting it online.

Take care,

Paul

Aux port - Dialer setup question [7:21088]

2001-09-25 Thread Robert Fowler

While studying for my BCRAN test, I decided to test some of what I learned
however I think I may have hit a bump. I think the problem is you can't put
an aux port into a dialer pool because it doesn't have a physical interface.
However for the purpose of this exercise I let you in on what I have
attempted.

I have 2 routers, I have a modem connected to each aux port. The 2 routers
have a link between them, if that link goes down I want 1 router to call the
2nd and establish a connection using the aux ports.

Do I have to have an asynch port in order to accomplish this?


Thank You,
Robert Fowler

RE: Legacy DDR won't keep quiet [7:20854]

2001-09-24 Thread Robert Fowler

I'm taking a stab in the dark, but I think CDP sends traffic about every 90
seconds...  Do a SHOW CDP Interface and see how often it is sending packets.
If that is the case turn CDP off. If nothing else activate the improbability
drive.

Subject: Legacy DDR won't keep quiet [7:20854]


Howdy there folks, question for you. Studying for the BCRAN, I have a lab
with two 1602R's with BRI modules. I am simulating a FR connection with BRI
configured for backup in legacy dialer-string mode.

The backup works fine; ie. I pull the FR cable and the backup comes up, I
send interesting traffic and the BRI dials and routes the packet.

Problem is, even when there is no interesting traffic (even when I put an
access list on it with 'deny any') the BRI still dials periodically. As far
as I can tell it's about 90 seconds between.

At first I thought it was RIP. But I disabled RIP and it's still doing it!

Here's the config on the spoke router (note Hitchhiker's Guide reference =)

FastEthernet Adapter for 7206 - How do I enable? [7:6411]

Hello,

I've been beating my head on the side of this router. I've searched the CCO

in any of my studying. How does it differ from the IOS? Anyway, the adapter
card will not enable, and when I do a show diag 1 I get this:(see below)
show that it is powered off. I've searched everywhere to find the command to
power it on. Any suggestions?

RE: FastEthernet Adapter for 7206 - How do I enable? [7:6411]

2001-05-30 Thread Robert Fowler

Hmm I didn't find that on the HW-SW matrix. As a matter a fact I couldn't
find PA-2FE-TX, only PA-2FEISL-TX and PA-FE-FX, both of which supported
12.1(3).

Checkout the HW-SW Compatibility Table
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/front.x/Support/HWSWmatrix/hwswmatrix.cgi

The PA-2FE-TX requires a minimum of 12.1(6) for Mainline.

 Hello,

 I've been beating my head on the side of this router. I've searched the
CCO
 on how to enable the PA-2FE adapter, and found some information on
 microcode. Then I found out the IOS I've upgraded to (12.1.(3)) already
has
 a current version built in. I don't recall learning anything about
Microcode
 in any of my studying. How does it differ from the IOS? Anyway, the
adapter
 card will not enable, and when I do a show diag 1 I get this:(see below)
 show that it is powered off. I've searched everywhere to find the command
to
 power it on. Any suggestions?

David,

My sincerest apologies for ever doubting you. 12.1(6) works great!

Thanks,

DDR into a PRI [7:1701]

2001-04-24 Thread Robert Fowler

Ok here is my question, Say you setup DDR with analog lines back to a
central location with PRI, would you need to have the MICA modems or is
there a command that will let the PRI interface card use the lines from the
t1-PRI? I've search the CCO and I've found a lot of information on DDR but
nothing on the specifics for coming back into a central PRI.

RE: DDR into a PRI [7:1701]

2001-04-24 Thread Robert Fowler

We have several remote sites that need to dial-in if there frame relay
connection fails, I figured I would set them up with modems hooked to the
aux port as a backup interface. My questions revolves around the central
site with the PRI. I've been told my another NA that I work with that there
is a command that you can enter that will allow you to use the dial-in lines
directly on the router without using MICA modems. I thought a modem had to
talk to another modem. Hope this helps. What kind of setup did you do and
did it work successfully?
