Price Changes for Exams

After a rigorous evaluation of our current cost structure, we find it
necessary to increase our CCIE Lab exam fee to reflect our current cost of
doing business. The present $1,000 US lab fee has been in effect since the
CCIE organization was first launched in 1993. Effective on April 1, 2001, we
will begin charging customers $1,250 US per lab attempt, (plus any
applicable local taxes).

The exam fee for the Prometric exams will also increase to $300 US effective
March 15, 2001. This applies to all qualification and recertification exams.

RE: tftpserver on redhat 7.0

2001-03-08 Thread Scott Brenner

There is a problem with RH7, with tftp-server-0.17-5.i386.rpm.
I had to downgrade to tftp-server-0.16-5.i386.rpm and it worked.

Hi folks,
Anyone able to get tftpserver to run on redhat 7.0?  I was able to to run
it in 6.x.  And I would hate to have a tftpserver running on a windows
box because most of the work I'm doing is through remote.  And no, I would
not downgrade my redhat box to 6.2.  Thanks for any help.

-Frank

RE: 56K vs 64K

Here is a link to a White Paper on T-1 basics. It covers with moderate
detail what you are wanting.

http://www.ttc.com/downloads/white_papers/t1_tn.pdf

There are many other White Papers on the page I found the this one on that
might be of interest
to everyone.

Could you post a link or somewhere to get this info. I have been looking
and cannot find anything. I remember covering this in BCRAN and would
like to go through it again. Having to do with the serial lines and the
sampling rate, bit robbing etc. SF/ESF AMI/B8ZS etc. If you have a link
to this info I would love to read it over again.

High-level view:

Remember there are multiple levels in the "T1" world. I'm
carefully avoiding "layer"  If anyone starts trying to force this
into OSI layering, I will start to mutter, "This is a .44 magnum, the
most powerful handgun in the world. I can't remember if I've fired 5
or 6 rounds. Feeling lucky, punk?" :-)

The lowest level is the electrical/optical signal format
Next, you have bit stream encoding (AMI, B8ZS, etc.)
Next, you have framing (SF, ESF)
And with voice services, you have call control (CCS, CAS, etc.)

On a T1 line what is the difference between 56K and 64K. If I am
correct I
believe that 56K uses bit stuffing to stuff the 8th bit of every
timeslot
with a 1 to fulfill the ones density requirement. However, this would
not be
necessary with B8ZS line coding, right because B8ZS will not allow 8
consecutive zeroes anyway.

You're right about B8ZS, but 56K (and, for that matter, 48K) was
introduced at a time when AMI was extremely common.

Now if that is true, why would you use 56K on a
B8ZS coded T1 circuit and if those timeslots are cross-connected to a
64K
line or vice versa, wont that cause errors because the two clock rates
are
expecting different things in the 8th bit. I would appreciate any
comments
at all on this subject.

But the DS0 sees a 64 KBPS stream and doesn't inherently expect any
meaning in any particular bit.

Bit meaning does come up at a higher level when used for telco
signaling, as with CAS and CCS.



I didn't even _think_ of the acronym CCIE while writing the body of
this message.  No ciscos were scaled, finned, or fried in its
preparation.

RE: Bookpool LLC

2000-11-21 Thread Scott Brenner

It's weird how peoples experiences differ... I have ordered 22 books from
them since 1/99 and have never had a problem. The books always showed up on
time, and in perfect condition.

I'd say caveat emptor Buyer be really aware what you are getting.  I found
Bookpool to be terrible for customer service and pricing.  The misrepresent
what they are selling.  Use anyone but them.

 What's everyone's opinion about the subject?  Recently I have noticed that
 their prices are not as competitive, their customer service is almost
 non-existent and they do not fully disclose or misrepresent things.
