Re: BGP4 and Multiple Providers [7:55918]

2002-10-25 Thread Vern Stitt
I have had a brief demo as part of a WSD training session.  The Linkproof
handles DNS for the links and does active delay probing on incoming and
outgoing traffic.

From the Manual:

Radware's LinkProof eliminates all of the complexities of multi-homing
design, providing a single, easy to manage appliance that intelligently
utilizes all Internet links optimally. LinkProof also maximizes the benefits
of
multi-homed networks that are never fully taken advantage of with
traditional designs. The following diagram represents a typical LinkProof
configuration.

LinkProof provides the following advantages for multi-homed networks:

o LinkProof intelligently manages the IP address ranges assigned to
the network from various ISPs.

o LinkProof ensures that all ISP links are used by intelligently
load-balancing
all outgoing traffic through the available links, while
simultaneously managing the address spaces used for outgoing
traffic.

o LinkProof's intelligent load balancing uses link availability, link load,
and link strength (in cases where various links have differing
bandwidths) as factors that contribute to load balancing decisions.

o LinkProof uses Radware's already proven proximity detection
algorithms to choose the best ISP for outbound traffic, taking into
account router hops and latency to the destination network, as well
as current load per ISP link.

o LinkProof houses an intelligent DNS server agent that can manage
the flow of incoming traffic into the network, assuring that all ISP
links are used for all incoming traffic and no address from a failed
ISP link is ever advertised to the Internet.

o LinkProof's proximity can also be used to ensure that the optimal
path is used for inbound traffic.

In essence, the LinkProof is a single, easy to administer, traffic manager
for the multi-homed network, eliminating the complexities of routing
protocols and uncertain traffic patterns. It also optimizes the multiple ISP
connections of the multi-homed network to ensure that all links are used
to the best of their potential, thereby making the entire network more
efficient for inbound and outbound traffic.

As an alternative, Radware offers the LinkProof which also allows multiple
ISPs without using BGP.  Their box is a more robust ASIC based design rather
than a PC.  The same hardware is also used in their FireProof and Web Server
Director (WSD) products.

Re: Prototype and Pilot

2001-01-05 Thread Vern Stitt

I concur with Jonathan.  I have worked in the past for minicomputer and
mainframe engineering departments.  The prototypes were built from sketches
and uncontrolled documentation.  You could change anything you wanted at any
time.  Once the engineers got the desired funtionality working, they
documented the unit and put all of the hardware documentation and software
under Engineering Change Order (ECO) control.  The Pilots were then built
using the controlled documentation to purchase custom parts and assemble
units in small volume, usually in Manufacturing Engineering.  After the
pilots were produced and accepted, transfer to volume manufacturing could
take place.

These terms derive from industries predating the Computer Revolution. The

more self-explanatory: Prototype Development and Pilot Production. In the
Pilot
Production phase the majority of bugs have been removed and a small
Production run
results in enough units to attempt a last real-world verification of the
unit before
finalizing the Production line hardware, software, processes, etc. Not a big

Re: W2K and 98, off subject sorry but I need help

2000-12-29 Thread Vern Stitt

Physically reconfigure the disk drives so that the Windows 98 disk is
disk(0) and the Windows 2K disk is disk(1).  Make sure that Windows 98 boots
fine without the boot loader screen.  Then boot the Win2K CD and upgrade the
existing Win2K Advanced Server partition to the same version of Win2K
Advanced Server.  It won't change anything on the Win2K partition, but it
will build a new usable boot.ini on the Windows 98 partition.

You should end up with:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced
Server"
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\C:\="Microsoft Windows 98"


I have never seen Windows 98 boot from anything other than the first active
partition on the first disk drive which the BIOS designates as C:.  There
are some multiboot utilities out there but they usually want to be involved
before the Operating System is installed.

Re: Win2k SNMP Traffic

2000-09-08 Thread Vern Stitt

Windows 2K does not enable SNMP by default.  Dell is doing that so that
their server monitoring software will get messages from the servers warning
you when a fan slows down, a power supply starts to regulate out of spec or
a RAID controller reports a container member problem.

Stopping and disabling SNMP in services will stop the snmp traffic but will
cause all the Dell monitoring applications to report problems initializing.

Also, this has nothing to do with network neighborhood browsing.  Putting
those systems in a different domain or workgroup will make them less
obvious. A different domain without a trust relationship will give some
security against access.

There is also a time factor. I dedicate my time to working and trying to
build a customer base. The time that I can spend in my lab is minimal.
When you decide to study certification like Cisco it would be nice that
Cisco would let us use their lab. After all we are supporting their
products.
Wouldn't it make sense for them to want certified people that at least saw
their products (inside and out) and have minimal hands on?

When I first started this certification I phone my local Cisco office and

 study. The CCIE can be passed if one has access to
 the right equipment. There is NEVER a need to take
 a class or have real experience. . .unless of course
 you actually want to be good at your job. Having said
 that, merely obtaining a cert like the CCNP or MCSE or
 CCNA is of some value depending on the depth of the
 job one needs to perform and the ability of an individual
 to translate theory into practice. Some people can do
 this better than others, but it depends on the individual
 and have much drive, motivation and determination one
 has. In the end, it is drive, motivation and determination
 that makes anyone good at whatever it is they do. . .Cert

The cost of the SmartNet contract depends on the model of the router in
question.  I sure that for a low end router the price is less than $100.  I
think I paid about $75 for a SmartNet contract for a customer's 803 router.
A high end router costs more because the contract also covers replacement of
defective hardware by Cisco.  I think that any SmartNet contract gets you

Hi Computer Services,

The answer to this and many other questions is in the archives.  It's one of
the best tools that we have!

The Cisco Documentation CD works on Windows 2000. It's because the Verity
search engine does not use or recognize the search path. - %ProgramFiles%,
as you'll see in the registry.


To get the Cisco documentation to work under Windows 2000:

- Completely uninstall and remove all the related files from a failed
installation of the documentation CD first!

- Run regedit

- Locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/IE4/Setup/Path

- Change the value from "%programfiles%\Internet Explorer" to the location
where IE is installed on your system, for example "C:\Program Files\Internet
Explorer".

- Install the Documentation CD

Re: Standard Cisco passwords

2000-08-29 Thread Vern Stitt

I have seen way too many users and systems that still have the default
password from the install still in use years later. Aren't all NT
Administrator passwords either blank or "password"?

By the way, when troubleshooting a PIX to VPN Client connectivity problem,
the first thing TAC wanted changed was the pre-shared key to "cisco1234".
More than half of the pre-shared keys that I have seen since then are all
"cisco1234".

Using these passwords and/or keys makes your system as secure as you are at

Re: Cisco Prerequisites

2000-08-04 Thread Vern Stitt

IMHO - An MCSE is not a prerequisite to becoming a CCxx.  However, some of
the Microsoft Courses and tests from the old NT 4.0 series serve as
entry-level primers toward CCxx. Specifically, studying and passing the
certification test for "Networking Essentials" gives a good overview of
physical connections and limitations. "TCPIP" beats you to death on
subnetting, default gateways and if you can ping this machine A and that
machine C, why can't you ping machine B.

I already had a MCSE when I started studying for the CCNA. Some of the
material was real familiar.  The IOS commands were new but made sense. "OH,
that's how they handle that!" was a common thought.

More likely, people with little or no college education but with an interest
in joining the high paying world of information systems and Internet stuff
are guided into MCSE training. They get jobs at NOS helpdesks or upgrading
systems at the local retailer at absurdly low wages. Then their real
interests and aptitudes divert them into other areas.  If they hated TCPIP,
they stick with GUIs and Windows admin stuff, maybe some programming. If
they liked TCPIP, subnetting and command lines, they will be seduced by
routers and IOS.

Me, I always liked the command line OSs. It took me a long time to get used
to clicking on icons without thinking "I wonder what the heck are the
default switches for the command line this icon launches?  How can I change
the switches without opening a command prompt?"

Re: Nooo! I failed! what now?

2000-08-02 Thread Vern Stitt

Hey Al,

It looks to me like you were studying from an older 407 exam prep book.
Cisco added quite a few WAN and Switch questions to the 407 test pool late
last year.  Check the publisher's web site for errata and updates.  I got a
large Chapter 11 update from the Sybex site for my 407 Study book that had a
great deal of WAN stuff in it that the original book did not cover. The
errata sheet also had fixes for the review questions that didn't seem quite
right.

Since it's now after July 31, 2000, you'll have to take the 507 CCNA 2.0
test.  You did good to buy the two study books.  I would also invest in a
Boson practice test.

Re: Part 1 - BGP Certzone white paper

2000-07-24 Thread Vern Stitt

Hey Group,

Just my $.02.

Since I joined this group, I am constantly impressed by the quality of it's
members. This includes not only CCNPs and CCIEs, but published authors on
various Cisco or networking related subjects.  I would personally expect a
lot of posts saying "The answer is in my book. buy my book!"

But that is not the case at all.  These people spend hours explaining things
to newbies and intermediates who are trying hard but missing a few fine
points.

I say, if you get a chance, buy something from them! As only a single
example, if you want a copy of Howard's paper, join CertificationZone. We
have all read hundreds of dollars worth of his explanations free on this
news group. If you get half a chance, buy something with his name on it or
something with access to his white papers!

I bought Priscilla's book "Top Down Network Design", not only because of the
reviews but because of her excellent posts to this group.

I won't go on and on even though I could. I'm sure you all get my point by
now!

 Let me first state that I am not unsympathetic to the cost of training

 sympathetic to the concept of copyright protection, and protection of
 intellectual property.

 There are many alternatives which can keep one within the bounds of

Re: documentation CD on windows 2000

2000-07-18 Thread Vern Stitt

Hey Jim,

I got mine working using information from a post on this group.

It had to do with a registry change from %programfiles% to c:\Program Files

I'm sure it is in the archives on a few different occasions.

OK Here one of them is from John Wu on June 16, 2000

 The Cisco Documentation CD works on Windows 2000. It's because the Verity
 search engine does not use or recognize the search path. - %ProgramFiles%,
 as you'll see in the registry.

 You need to modify the NT registry, Run REGEDT32,

 goto HKLM\Software\Microsoft\IE4\Setup and you'll see
 Path=%programfiles%\Internet Explorer

 What you need to do is locate where your iexplore.exe is located and
change
 the path as needed.
 So, if your iexplore.exe is located in C:, then change the path to
 "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer", otherwise substitute the correct
drive
 letter.

The archives of this list is a tremendous resource!

Re: DHCP and subnets

2000-07-17 Thread Vern Stitt

If you use a router for DHCP request forwarding using BOOTP IP Helper
Address, the DHCP server will accurately assign IP addresses to the correct
subnets from the correct scopes using the source IP address.

That is unless the request comes from an Ethernet interface has multiple IP
addresses assigned from different logical subnets.  In that case, it seems
to always assign an address from the scope of the lowest numerical IP
network address assigned to that interface.

AE, ASE, CCNA, MCSE

""Dale E. Drummond"" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message
[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...
 The DHCP server knows what scope to pick the ip address from by looking at
 the GIADDR field in the DHCP packet.  When the router helpers a DHCP
 request to the DHCP server it populates the GIADDR address with the
 primary ip address of the router interface that the DHCP broadcast request
 was received on.  When the DHCP server receives the request it looks at
 the GIADDR field then looks to see if it has a scope that matches the ip
 subnet of the address in the GIADDR fields.  If it does it assigns an ip
 from that subnet.

 Hope this helps.

 Hello folks,
 Please clarify this for me.

 Hypothetical example: Campus LAN with multiple buildings.  Each building
 on its own vlan and with its own subnet addressing scheme. All buildings
 tied in to a Catalyst 5500 which has RSP doing all the inter-vlan
 routing.  Data center using a single DHCP server with multiple scopes
 (one scope per vlan/subnet etc) to supply all vlans/subnets with their
 respective ip addresses.  I want to understand how the DHCP server knows
 how to hand out the correct ip address from the corresponding subnet to
 the workstations that request them.  I have come to believe that
 initially DHCP servers have no idea whom is requesting an address, they
 just hand them out to whoever asks...this is what is confusing.  I
 understand that each Vlan needs its own gateway address where the
 workstations aim their broadcasts and there an ip helper-address
 statement in the RSP for each vlan, but I still don't understand how the
 DHCP server knows how to hand out the appropriate address when it has
 multiple scopes enabled.

 TIA for any clarification you can offer.

You could always download the TFTP server from the Cisco web site.

The greatest thing a newbie can learn is that almost everything you need to

your way around until you get a good sized and organized "Favorites" area
saved.

The last time I changed jobs, I saved my personal files and a lot of other

I would advise sticking with 5.0.3 and 1.0 on a PIX just because of the PIX
firmware stability. I do agree that the 1.1 VPN Client was easier to setup
because the defaults were the settings I wanted. In 1.0 I had to adjust
almost everything.

 Make sure you download the 1.2 version (the latest one).  It's much more
 refined than the previous one and seems to have taken care of many of the
 issues that I used to have.  My speed seemed to increased quite a bit with
 the new version but it's hard to tell if it was the new client or if I
just
 happened to get lucky with the bandwidth to my office.

 Has anyone had a chance to compare the Raptor Power VPN server/client with
 Cisco's solution yet?

  Does Cisco make a VPN client to go with a VPN capable 2621?  Can anyone
  recommend a free one if Cisco does not have one.

Re: NAT Pool

2000-06-13 Thread Vern Stitt

How many unused registered addresses are available?

How many simultaneous outgoing connections do you expect?

NAT addresses are dynamically assigned one per outgoing connection.  My
advise is to save a group of addresses for static NATs and future growth,
put most of the rest in a NAT pool and create an additional single address
NAT pool for NAT overflow (PAT).
