RE: ccnp voice certification

2001-01-29 Thread Taylor, Don

It *is* zero pages; it's a CIM (Cisco Interactive Mentor). I have it and am
using it. So far, I'm pretty impressed. It includes a discussion of the
history of the phone network, analog and digital signaling, etc. And the
biggest draw is the simulated router environment which allows you to
configure some 3600 series router with VICs to complete a call.

I'm not done with it yet, but I'm enjoying it and feel like I'm getting the
hang of VoIP pretty quickly.

(watch for wordwrap)

It must be a pretty easy book to read, because according to CiscoPress, it
only has 0 pages.

Should you deside to get it, please let me know if it's good, since I

Here's your weekly safety brief.  Be careful what you wear (or don't
 wear), when working under your vehicle...especially in public.

 From the Sydney Morning Herald Australia comes this story of a central
 west couple who drove their car to K-Mart only to have their car break
 down in the parking lot.

 The man told his wife to carry on with the shopping while he fixed the
 car there in the lot. The wife returned later to see a small group of
people near the car.  On closer inspection she saw a pair of male legs
 protruding from under the chassis.

 Although the man was in shorts, his lack of underwear turned private
parts into glaringly public ones. Unable to stand the embarrassment, she
dutifully stepped forward, quickly put her hand UP his shorts and tucked
everything back into place.

 On regaining her feet she looked across the hood and found herself
staring at her husband who was standing idly by.

The mechanic, however, had to have three stitches in his head

RE: But isn't that the routers job???

2001-01-22 Thread Taylor, Don

I can see where you're coming from, and maybe I would have worded it
differently if I'd written the book (i.e. "Why leave it up to the route
processor when it can be switched faster?"); but do keep in mind that the
CPU in a router isn't exactly cutting edge technology. If you read the
specs, most of them are similar to those in computers that we all lusted for
five years ago. That being the case, the argument is a good one:  take as
much burden off the processor as possible by reducing the number of lookups.

Hi Tony,
 I understand all of this fully but where I'm confused is, how much of a

burden could this be if that's all it has to do. I want to know what the 
"more important" things are...Maybe I overestimate the power of a route 
processor but I would think that its especially created with the power to 
handle tons of routing considering that that's what its designed for...am I 
wrong?

700 Switch? I don't know of a switch in the 700 series, but there are a few

some are still in use, to avoid further confusion I would like to remove the
unused DLCI's, but I'm not sure how to go about it, I have spoken with the

switch, 16,  19.
the following may help, what I would like is that when I type in sh frame

RE: Frame Relay PVC

2001-01-03 Thread Taylor, Don

My first and last inclination (not to mention every inclination in between)
is to blame the telco. If they've truly done testing on the circuit and
can't find anything, then consider whether you cross multiple carriers on
that PVC. It may not be your local carrier's issue, which is why they
haven't found anything. If you're on a single carrier, then I would
recommend a redesign of that PVC. It's easy to say there's nothing wrong
with the configuration of the PVC when you're talking with someone who
doesn't know all the ins and outs of frame switch configuration, but in my
experience, most of the carrier techs don't really KNOW their equipment -
they just have a script they run through to create new PVCs, hence they may
not be exactly accurate when they say that everything is fine.

Hope that helps.

I did a debug of the lmi packets and the output is below. My telco says
there is nothing wrong with the physical connection or the configuration of

Really? You had the same PVC dropping regularly because of EM? Dang, that's

Subject: RE: Frame Relay PVC


I've experienced these types of symptoms several times and 99% of the time
it really is the telco's fault, it just takes some serious pressure to get
them to put some resources toward fixing the problem.

However, at least once I found that it was a bad extension from the demarc
(NIU) to the csu/dsu.  The building we were in had lots of other equipment
at the demarc, and from time to time throughout the day some of that
equipment would generate enough EM noise that it would cause a lot of errors
on our line and the PVC would go down.

The telco tested and didn't find any problems and even sent a tech who
didn't discover any problems.  I later went there myself and re-oriented
some of the cables in relation to other equipment and the problem went away.

  My first and last inclination (not to mention every inclination in
between)
  is to blame the telco. If they've truly done testing on the circuit and
  can't find anything, then consider whether you cross multiple carriers on
  that PVC. It may not be your local carrier's issue, which is why they
  haven't found anything. If you're on a single carrier, then I would
  recommend a redesign of that PVC. It's easy to say there's nothing wrong
  with the configuration of the PVC when you're talking with someone who
  doesn't know all the ins and outs of frame switch configuration, but in
my
  experience, most of the carrier techs don't really KNOW their equipment -
  they just have a script they run through to create new PVCs, hence they
may
  not be exactly accurate when they say that everything is fine.
  
  Hope that helps.

Apparently, there are circumstances under which ciscos are certified, 
rather than doing the certification.

Some discussions have questioned whether or not certain things are 
kosher or not, but there is a definitive reference:

 http://www.kosherquest.org/bookhtml/FISH.htm

in which Rabbi Eliezer Eidlitz answers your questions about the 
dietary laws, including what fish are kosher.  There is an 
cross-reference:

 "Cisco See: Trouts"

To make this even more bizarre, look in the Cisco trademark section 
of the IOS 9.1 documentation set.  You will find that Cisco 
trademarked the term "trouter," which was marketingspeak for a 
_t_erminal server _router_.  It is my understanding, however, that 
trouters did not scale well and industry focus groups generally 
considered the idea sounded fishy.

Scalability, according to the kosherquest site, is quite complex:

"Fish which have fins and scales are kosher. Fish which only have 
fins are not kosher. Of the four types of scales, clenoid, cycloid, 
ganoid and placoid, only clenoid  and cycloid scales are valid 
according to the Torah. Gandoid is the type found on  sturgeon and 
placoid is found on shark.There is no prohibition against eating fish 
blood, other than the fact that people may think that a person is 
eating prohibited   blood, and ritual slaughter is not required.

"The scales must be true scales that can be removed without damaging 
the skin of the fish. As it says in the Torah - "These you may eat of 
the fishes, all that have fins and scalesS" (Vayikrah XI:9-12) Bony 
tubercles and plate or thorn-like scales  that can be removed only 
byremoving part of the skin  are not considered scales  in this 
context. Some fish  that have such scales, such as eels, lumpfish, 
shark,sturgeon, and swordfish, are not kosher."

This further complicates the situation. If shark is scalable but 
nonkosher, that suggests that Cisco lawyers also are not kosher.

Further, look at the back of many Cisco blades -- I'm thinking of a 
4000 router NPM.  What are those protrusions called? Cooling fins, eh?

Coincidence?  You decide. Perhaps the 4000 routers were discontinued 
because they had fins but were not sufficiently scalable.

You were told to configure a network as follows:

10.1.1.3/8  hostB gw 10.1.1.1
10.1.1.4/8  hostC gw 10.1.1.1


hostA cannot ping hostB or hostC.  hostB and hostC have no problem pinging
eachother however, but cannot ping hostA.

hostA does get a reply however from all hosts if it pings 10.1.1.255.
What do you suppose the problem is?

I'll let you know when someone posts the right answer.

Sounds like you're willing to consider relocation - that's a definite bonus

As for places to look for work, I have not been able to beat
www.net-temps.com. I get nearly all my responses from there, though I also
get a handful from www.headhunter.net, and I usually also post on
www.dice.com, but have never even gotten a nibble from them. Fairly often I
get offers that include moving to a new area or even a new state. Once in a
while I'll even see other countries listed.

Basically, if you use these tools and have a resume that doesn't look like
it was written by your cat, and are open to relocation, you will *NOT* have
a bit of trouble finding a new position.

CDP's benefit comes from getting said information *without* telnetting. I
occasionally troubleshoot networks that have misconfigured IP addresses.
Obviously if the IP is wrong, I can't telnet to some sites. But with CDP I
can see the address that the far end is advertising, and change my IP so I
can telnet to it. Once there, I can fix the wrong IP, the connection will
drop me back to my original router, and I can change the local IP - all
fixed! Without CDP I wouldn't know the far end's IP. That's just one

RE: 2610 csu/dsu configuration

2000-12-02 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: 2610 csu/dsu configuration





There's not too much to it. HDLC is the default encapsulation, so you won't have to change that. And if the second router you're connecting too has a Cisco internal CSU, they'll have the same default. Basically you just need to put clocking on one of the routers and that should do it. The command is clock rate ? (you get to choose the speed - might as well go with the fastest, 400).

The commands for configuring your CSU, though, are (in interface config mode) service-module t1 ? (get the list). The ones I use most often are:

service-module t1 timeslots 1-24 speed 64; this sets the CSU up for 24 channels at 64K per channel (T1 speed)
service-module t1 linecode b8zs; B8ZS line coding, as opposed to AMI (your provider can tell you which one to use)
service-module t1 framing esf; ESF or SF are your framing choices


Hope that helps. Lemme know if you need something else.

Title: RE: O/T ballots-per-second musings





I saw something on www.vote.com, I believe, that asked people their feelings about voting via computer over the Internet. I took a tour years ago through the San Francisco mint and was shown a huge scale that they used to weigh gold, coins, etc. It was a weight-counterweight type - not electronic, although they had access to electronic ones - and was the preferred type to use because it couldn't be easily mishandled or misconfigured.

I think the voting method is similar to this. Look at all the accusations (well deserved, IMNSHO) flying after the hand recounts. People have an interest in who wins; machines don't. And if we were to move toward some method of electronic voting, how can we secure that so that there is no question - ever! - of tampering? I don't think it can be done. Someone would have to program the ballots, and who's to say s/he wouldn't use political bias to throw in some code that accidently dropped every third vote from the opposing party? Also, circuits certainly aren't tamper-proof. A few years with Pacific Bell taught me that Joe Farmer can backhoe an OC circuit in nothin'-flat, knocking out entire communities.

I agree that the current mess sucks, but I don't think we networking professionals will be called in to fix it until we can produce a magic box that is completely tamper-proof and transmits over quarks.

Until then, just mail all your ballots to me and I'll fill 'em out right for you. =)

for president on 10,000 ballots. That's outrageous! Regardless of any 
political wrangling about the significance of this problem, as computer 
professionals, we should be asking ourselves, how could this happen?


We now have two kinds of proof (Y2K and E2K) that we need to take a more 
active role in working with our users to dump ancient systems and upgrade 
to newer and less buggy solutions. That's not an easy task, of course. 
Finances, office politics, and risk aversion are just some of the many 
reasons that users don't upgrade. But what are we doing to be more 
proactive? Are we monitoring our systems to determine their fragility? Are 
we taking action when we recognize potential problems? Are we designing 
reliable systems that can adapt to changes? Or are we hiding behind our 
21-inch monitors and praying that nothing bad will happen on our shift?


I'd like to see the computer industry get serious about developing less 
buggy systems and upgrading legacy systems that are failure-prone. I'd 
welcome a technical (non-political) discussion on this topic. Thanks for 
listening to my ravings. ;-)

Yes, 
you're right; I wasn't specific enough, I suppose, in my explanation. I know the 
encapsulation is configured on the router under the interface and that it's 
separate from the CSU. Since the question indicated configuring the CSU for 
HDLC, I mentioned that she didn't need to change it. I should have specified 
that even if she had to, it would be separate from the CSU. My bad! =( 
Sorry, if I've confused anyone.

  Don, 
  I believe that a CSU is a layer one device. I have never seen any option on 
  any CSU I have ever worked with, internal or external, for line encapsulation. 
  It is always AMI / B8ZS and SF / ESF choices.
  
  on 
  the router interface is where you configure HDLC or PPP. ( Or SDLC or SMDS or 
  frame relay, for that matter. ) This is done with both internal and external 
  CSU's.
  
  notice that within the Cisco config, you even 
  differentiate between the serial interface and the service module when issuing

There's not too much to it. HDLC is the default 
encapsulation, so you won't have to change that. And if the second router 
you're connecting too has a Cisco internal CSU, they'll have the same 
default. Basically you just need to put clocking on one of the routers and 
that should do it. The command is "clock rate ?" (you get to choose the 
speed - might as well go with the fastest, 400).
The commands for configuring your CSU, though, are (in 
interface config mode) "service-module t1 ?" (get the list). The ones I use 
most often are:
"service-module t1 timeslots 1-24 speed 64"; this sets the 
CSU up for 24 channels at 64K per channel (T1 speed) "service-module t1 linecode b8zs"; B8ZS line coding, as opposed to 
AMI (your provider can tell you which one to use) "service-module t1 framing esf"; ESF or SF are your framing 
choices 
Hope that helps. Lemme know if you need something 
else.

Subject: Frame Relay Problem



Hi All,


I hope someone can shed some light on the problem I have come across in the 
following scenario :


Three routers, R1,R2 and R3 all connected via a Frame Relay cloud with a 
router in the middle doing frame relay switching. The frame switch is _not_ 
fully meshed. R1 is acting as the hub with R2 and R3 being spokes off R1. 
Hence there is a PVC betweenR1 and R2 and a PVC between R1 and R3. There is 
_no_ PVC between R2 and R3.


The particular lab exercise here specifies that each router much be able to 
ping every other router in the frame cloud. BUT the use of the 'frame-relay 
map' command is forbidden, and only R1 can be configured using a subinterface.


As I have it configured R1 can ping both R2 and R3 as expected. However, 
both R2 and R3 can only ping R1 (the hub) yet cannot ping each other. The 
question stipulates you should use routing and not Layer2 to Layer3 
mapping. A debug on the ping from R2 to R3 shows that there is no map entry 
for R3 hence encapsulation failed. A look at 'sh frame map' shows there is 
only 1 entry and it is for R1. This sh frame map is identical on R2 and R3.


So the question is, how can I get R2 and R3 to be able to ping each other 
using routing and not the frame relay map command.


It's got two of us here studying for our CCIE stumped, so im hoping someone 
out there has an idea as to how this can be accomplished.


Also, as this is for the CCIE, static routes are not an option.


Cheers.


Jim.

RE: How to Config DSU/CSU....

2000-11-24 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: How to Config DSU/CSU





An external CSU/DSU isn't configured within the router. It's usually configured either through the front panel display or via DIP switches. You'll want to verify at least three things on your CSU: line speed (number of channels), framing (ESF/D4), and line coding (B8ZS/AMI). You may also need to configure clocking, bit robbing, etc. It will help you immensely to have a manual for your CSU available. You may want to check the manufacturer's website, if they have one.

Good luck!

RE: Need help with converting IP address to MAC address

2000-11-24 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: Need help with converting IP address to MAC address





A MAC address is an address that is burned into an Ethernet NIC by the manufacturer. The first three (it is three, right?) octets identify the manufacturer. This address is completely independent of any network layer address you assign to the interface. That's why you can assign an IP address, a secondary IP address, an IPX address, and an AppleTalk address all to the same interface. It will still have the same MAC.

The MAC is used in network segments to identify the next hop a frame must take, whereas a network layer address identifies the starting and ending points only.

RE: on Frame Relay

2000-11-21 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: on Frame Relay





The port itself can handle up to 256K; that's the port speed. You're paying for 64K (CIR), which is what you'll get on average. You will occasionally burst up to 256K when there is no other traffic on the circuit (it is shared bandwidth with other frame relay subscribers). This bursting is figured into the pricing (remember, you'll average 64K throughput, even though you may not get exactly 64K all the time). If you burst over your CIR for more than your alotted time slot (remember, they expect you to burst every once in a while) your packets will be marked as discard eligible and will be preferencially discarded if another customer is trying to transmit within CIR, such that the port would not be able to handle your extra data (you'll be relegated back to your own CIR). The pricing can be done differently, depending on the carrier. Some will bill you for your CIR plus any actual usage above CIR. Others allow you to burst up to the maximum available bandwidth as long as there is no other traffic for no extra charge. There's also a new animal on the frame relay front called 0-CIR, which means you don't elect a CIR at all, and pay only for actual usage.

If this has been completely confusing, then the telco has done their job well. I think half the time they actually want their customers not to understand their pricing. Anyway, pardon my kvetching. =)

Hopefully the technical details are helpful to you.

all the time and do I also get the port bandwidth all the time? How does
this work? Do the service providers have the port bandwidth for each link or
it is shared across? How does the pricing work, if somebody bursts upto the

RE: Scripts for IOS upgrades

2000-11-17 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: Scripts for IOS upgrades





I used to do this a lot for Pacific Bell - all by myself. I created my own scripts; they aren't difficult at all. Here's my method:

Group all your like models of routers together and stack them them on top of each other, plugged in and booted up. Get a copy of a terminal emulator (HyperTerm or whatever), the IOS image you need, and a TFTP server on a workstation. You'll need a console cable and an Ethernet crossover cable too.

Console to the router and configure the router with a temporary e0 (or e0/0 or whatever) address on the same subnet as the workstation. Now go through the motions of TFTPing the image to the router. When you're done, just copy all of the information you entered into the router to a text file, e.g.:

config term
int e0
ip addr 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 (assuming the workstation is on the 10.1.1.0 subnet...)
no shut
exit
copy tftp flash
10.1.1.2 (workstation IP)
c1600-y-mz.112-16.P (image name)
y (answer to 'do you want to overwrite current image')
y (answer to 'do you want to erase flash')
(I believe you will have to enter the final carriage-return (Confirm?) manually.


Sit back and watch the  go by. When they're done, reboot the router, switch your cables to the next router, and dump your text file to the terminal emulator to start all over again. When the last router is done, you can switch your console cable back to the first router to confirm that the new image is working properly - and as long as you never saved the config, the ethernet interface will still have it's original address.

Hope this helps. (BTW, it's obviously even faster if you can use a FastEthernet interface...)

Any passwording scheme can be brute forced, given enough time, just a like an infinite number of monkeys on an infinite number of typewriters will eventually write all the works of Shakespeare.

Title: RE: question : ethernet collision rule of thumb...





Yes, you will always have some collisions on a shared medium like Ethernet (obviously I'm not included a switched environment). The general guideline is that for IP you should have no more than 500 hosts on a flat network segment; IPX allows for 300; AppleTalk for 200; NetBIOS, 200; and a mix of protocols, 200. Again, this is just a guideline, which doesn't take some things into account, such as multicasting. I have not seen a guideline that specifies the percentage of collisions above which you should definitely segment. If anyone else has, please share.

This holds true regardless of packet size. However, when using the default

Ctrl-Z and end both take you out of config mode from wherever you are. Exit will take you out of config mode if you're at the Router(config)# prompt. If you're at any other prompt, such as Router(config-if), Router(config-router), etc., it will take you up one level (i.e. from a subinterface to the interface, or from an interface to global config).

Configuration mode just means you're configuring the router on some level, non-specific. Global configuration mode is being explicit that you are at the Router(config)# prompt.

Hope that clears it up for you.

The exit commands from submodes or contexts of configuration mode back up

RE: DNS Problem

2000-11-06 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: DNS Problem





DNS using random ports is a new one on me. I've never heard of that, but would be interested in learning more if you have a resource to suggest.

Are you implementing the access list correctly? Remember that port 53 is the source, not the destination. I have a similar setup in my home lab and the rule is: access-list 101 permit tcp any eq 53 any log.

I believe DNS uses random ports to communicate once it has established a 
session using port 53. This means you would need to open up the ports 
greater than 1023 for this to work. Perhaps someone can confirm this as my 
recollection of this is a little shaky.

I have a unique problem. I'm trying to put our firewall up using the Cisco
IOS access-list commands. When I put it in place, with TCP and UDP ports 
53
open, DNS will not work. We are using Windows 2000 Server as our DNS
Server. Is there a bug in Windows 2000? Or does Windows 2000 use an
additional port for DNS that I'm not aware of.

Thanks.

RE: ubr924

2000-11-05 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: ubr924





I was in the same boat, and with the same provider (@Home). You need to call them and ask a) whether your router is supported (my uBR924 wasn't on their supported equipment list), and b) whether they'll allow you to install your own equipment (I'm in a lease-only area, so I have to use their Motorola crap - bastards!). You shouldn't really have to do much of anything on your end; it's their network provisioning that is screwing you up.

I have a cable router that I am trying to get working in my house, but with

provider wants to assign it based on the hostname, because that how my PC
gets it. Is there a way to send the router's hostname in the DHCP request?
Or does anyone know how I can get an IP address on the cable interface.

SmartCertify CBT software for study

2000-10-10 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: SmartCertify CBT software for study





Does anyone out there have experience/opinions on SmartCertify's (www.smartcertify.com) CBT offerings? I'm looking at possibly purchasing their Cisco IMCR package, which, I'm told, leads one through all sorts of theory about routing/switching (to fill in any gaps your current education left), information about the routers themselves (how the backplane operates, etc.), and includes a section that simulates IOS configuration of everything from setting the hostname to configuring BGP and IOS upgrades. Not only that, but the salesman told me they guarantee that you'll be ready for and PASS your CCIE lab (not written - he was specific) once you can work your way through the whole CBT.

I was a bit skeptical, but he was insistent, so I'm interested in checking it out. But for such a magical product I was expecting the price to be on the order of $5 - $10K. Turns out it's only $1499. A guarantee like that for the price of a router is just too good to ignore, so I wanted to get some feedback from anyone that knows anything about these.

Thanks!

RE: Password encryption decoder

2000-10-10 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: Password encryption decoder





It can't be done. Cisco uses the MD5 algorithm for their secret passwords, which is a one-way hash. The hash is stored and when a password is entered, it's run through the algorithm. If the gibberish created matches the stored hash, access is granted. The *actual* password is never stored on the system.

No firsthand experience with Redbacks, sorry to say.


MPS = MPOA (Multiprotocol Over ATM)
MPLS = MultiProtocol Label Switching; it's a relatively new standard (i.e. not specific to any vendor) that paints frames with an additional header. This speeds up switching because the switch doesn't have to disassemble the IP packet to find the layer two information.

RE: Question

2000-09-27 Thread Taylor, Don
Title: RE: Question





I believe you're talking about Network Address Translation (NAT). The basic elements involved are a pool of real IP addresses, a source list, an inside interface (usually Ethernet), and an outside interface (usually some type of WAN, e.g. serial, T1, etc.).

Here is the URL of a sample NAT config I found on Cisco's website: http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/556/1.html


Remember to use the overload keyword in defining which pool your source list will be NAT'ed into. This keyword allows the same real IP (using different ports) to be used by multiple privately addressed hosts. Here's another example: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios113ed/113ed_cr/dial_c/dcprt11/dcnat.htm (watch the word wrap).

Hi all,


We have a Cisco router 2501 sitting between the Internet and our firewall.
A network infrastructure change involves a configuration change at the
router. Unfortunately nobody seems to recall the password. Does anyone
know how to hack into Cisco router 2501? Thanks in advance.

 Subject: Interview questions


 Here are some question I had on a interview that I didnt know at least at
 the moment:

 What are the reserved PVC's and what are they reserved for?

I'm not sure about this one. If he's asking what are reserved virtual
circuits, I'd say the PVCs are, as opposed to SVCs. On the other hand, if
he's asking what DLCIs are reserved, I've seen two slightly different lists,
depending on the book you reference, but they are mostly similar. The one
I'm currently looking in shows reserved DLCIs:

0 - LMI signaling
1-15 - Reserved (doesn't say what for)
16-991 Available (non-reserved)
992-1007 - Optional management information (rarely used)
1008-1022 - Reserved (doesn't say what for)
1023 - Other management function

I believe that where the function is simply "Reserved," it depends upon the
carrier's implementation of Frame Relay and/or the brand of switch used. In
other words, "it depends."

 What is the proprietary protocol on the Catalyst's?

The only thing I can think of here is Cisco's proprietary ISL trunking
protocol.

 What are the four major configurations on a CSU/DSU?

Pretty sure about this one: Number of channels (speed), Line Coding (B8ZS,
AMI), Frame Type (ESF, D4), and Clock Source (internal, line).

Not really crazy about the wording of the first two questions, frankly. I
usually try to play to their egos if I know I don't know the answer to see
if they'll offer it. At worst, I still won't know the answers after the
interview; at best, I'll have the answers for next time.

Hope this helps,

- Don

RE: Router for play @ home

2000-08-23 Thread Taylor, Don

I made the mistake of getting a 924 before checking with my cable company.
Do that first to a) make sure your equipment will actually work with their
network (they're going to have to reprovision your circuit anyway, so you
may as well call them first), and b) make sure they allow you to have your
own equipment on their circuit. I found out, to my dismay, that I am in a
lease-only area right now, i.e. I hafta use their crappy Motorola modem. =(

play with behind the cable modem. What series router should I be looking at,
just to learn the ios and play around with. I am working on my CCNA, and
realize a physical router is not necessary, but I will be progressing
upwards and would like the experience. I looked at the 924 cable
modem/router cisco sells, and the $899 price tag was a little much for
play-time! Thanks for the input.

If you weren't already almost through the ACRC text, I'd say go for that one

Cable router question

2000-08-09 Thread Taylor, Don

I recently got a uBR924 and am attempting to use it with the @Home cable
service. Anybody have any experience with this?

According to CCO, the router should be somewhat self-configuring. What I see
is that the cable interface shows up/down, regardless of whether the cable
line is even plugged in. Is this normal? Also, I've attempted to remove the
default bridge-group and enable IP routing, but the router doesn't keep
these changes after a reboot, though it keeps all other changes I make.

I'm just about to call TAC, but I'd rather figure it out for myself with a
little nudging from groupstudy. Anyone got any hints for me?

Paul and group,

I'm really disappointed in what I see happening with the list of late. I'm
only 31, but I can remember when people didn't just fly off the handle at
the drop of a hat. Just over this weekend I've seen two flames, and one
unfounded accusation; and all of these have been posted for the entire
group's enjoyment.

A couple of years ago I was co-admin of a message board and one of the
standing rules was to refrain from posting personal attacks to the board.
Offenders were warned once, then banned for a period. I hate to suggest
anything that would require even more maintenance by Paul, but damn it, even
preschoolers learn not to bite each other or they take a time-out. And too
many people here have apparently forgotten that lesson, making the whole
experience less enjoyable than it should be. My delete key works just fine,
but I still have to read the post before I decide to delete it.

Food for thought.

RE: What Path works?

2000-07-25 Thread Taylor, Don

You have to take the same 4 exams to get your CCNP, so the path you take
probably depends upon your strengths and weaknesses. If I were to do it
again from scratch, I would probably do the ACRC* first 'cause I'm strong in
routing, then the BCRAN, then the BCMSN 'cause I'm weakest in switching
(VLANs, STP, etc.), and finally the CIT to wrap it all together. If you're
strong in switching, for example, you might want to take the BCMSN first
just to get it out of the way.

Looking for some feedback... There seem to be some different paths followed
to CCNP.  What have you found to be a balance between book smarts and real
life prep for CCNP?

RE: DHCP on Router!!

2000-07-24 Thread Taylor, Don

Hey, Julian! =)

I found the following URL that shows what output you *should* see:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/120newft/120
t/120t1/easyip2.htm#xtocid2310242 (watch the wrap).

How do you have it set up? I'm assuming you've got a router configured as a
DHCP server and are watching the console output as a computer configured for
DHCP boots while directly plugged into the e0 interface.

Have you seen any traffic? Do you see the DHCDISCOVER packet coming from the
PC, for example?

I have turned on debug DHCP on several routers platforms and different
12.x(x) versions, but have yet to get any response.  Has anyone seen the
debug output for DHCP.  

My work around is to use an access list for the DHCP packet.

RE: CID Books

2000-07-21 Thread Taylor, Don

CCDP++ (I *just* passed!) =)

IMNSHO, the ONLY book worth reading is Cisco Internetword Design by Robert
Padjen (Sybex). I worked through the Cisco Press book and found it to be
basically useless. Don't misunderstand: It's a good text, but it didn't seem
to address what was actually on the test. The Sybex book gives you the
answers to what is on the exam; by that I mean the information required of
the exam is in the book, but there are no NDA violations.

Good luck!

RE: School Hook Up

2000-07-18 Thread Taylor, Don

Hooking them up shouldn't prove too difficult. You'll probably want a dual
ethernet router (Cisco 1605 or if you're handy with Linux or WinNT just
build one). With only a handful of computers like you mentioned, you can
stick a hub on the school side of the router, then put your ISDN Terminal
Adapter or DSL modem on the other interface. You'll probably also want to
consider security issues.

what would be a good cheap source of the parts.  Thanks

RE: Password recovery

2000-07-14 Thread Taylor, Don

Where's the hangup? Can you get to the rommon prompt? If not, I'd suggest a
different terminal program:  either the upgrade to Hyperterminal, or a
completely different animal. There are some issues with the older
Hyperterminal sending the break signal properly.

If you can get to rommon you shouldn't have a problem, but if you do, lemme
know. I used to walk people through password recovery all the time over the
phone.

RE: cir, bc, be

2000-07-14 Thread Taylor, Don

CIR is the average speed you'll transmit overall. In addition to this, you
can burst (Bc) up to, in your example, another 128K (256K total) for a
predefined period of time (usually about 1 second). Be designates all those
packets above the Bc; these are marked DE and will be discarded if
congestion occurs.

I'm having trouble getting my head around how bc and be relate to cir. For
example, if all 3 are set to 128k, is bc included in cir, or is it
additional to cir.  etc, etc.
