New UK CCNP
Yesterday I passed the last exam for the CCNP 2.0. It took 8 months from start to finish -my job and marriage partner kept interrupting :-) And I used the knowledge I learned over the period in my day job because I provide large-network tech support anyway. The best brain twisters appear on this list, which has helped the learning process even though it has caused a lot of doc searching, book scanning, and cursing too. So thanks to all for the problem postings, good advice, useful links, and moral support. and Natasha for her friday funnies. For the past 5 years I've been providing server side support to enterprise networks, frequently being told "There's nothing wrong with the network". Being forced to prove there was led me down the CCNP route... so thanks to them too :-) Hopefully I'll now sit on that side of the fence !

Re: MY CCNA TEST!!
Jennifer Did you find that as the test date got closer, you felt that you knew less and less? Or open a study book you had read a hundred times and get the feeling it was all new ? Overstudying can be more of a hindrance than a help. The first test is always the worst one; you won't be any more nervous before the next test, but keep calm during the buildup to it and the test itself.

Re: Novell servers - rconsole list keeps changing
If the Novell servers are 5.x using Pure IP, [no IPX] then you would need to load the SCMD module to get a virtual IPX stack on the server. This module has different switches on the command line, depending on whether it is connected to an IP/IPX/Both segment. This should match the servers in the other segments. "Display Servers" on the console is an IPX application - basically it will use SCMD to get the info it needs to display. If all the servers are not running scmd then they will not all appear in the console output. Novell's Appnotes are available freee on the website and discuss the design and operation of SCMD, and SLP. Also, for global visibility you should probably be implementing SLP with a Directory Agent [DA]. The DA registers the services available for a configurable, given part of the network. You run the DA on one server with other local servers pointing to it [use slp.cfg in the sys:etc directory]. A DA can register services for itself, or for a subnetwork. When you issue the Display SLP services command you should see a list of servers and services that server knows about. SCMD and SLP work to eliminate IPX RIP and SAP traffic. Previously, Netware advertised all available services. In NW5, using SCMD and SLP, services must be requested. As usual with Novell, this is very configurable - which means you can get better control of the network traffic, and into a lot of grief very quickly if you don't understand it. :-) The Appnotes will give you what you need to get it running.

BSCN Exam
Passed Routing 2.0 today, thanks in part to info I got from the questions on this site. If your prepping for this; know BGP and EIGRP theory & focus on the syntax of the set and show commands. You need to know the command syntax and also the console prompt it should be entered from. You should also be familiar with interpreting the effects of such commands when presented with a few lines of config Good luck.

Re: PIX, VPNs, Novell
Is the Cisco client capable of NDS authentication ? Why eliminate BM at all? BorderManager will work through a PIX, it depends on what BorderManager Services you would need. If you want to run BorderManager Proxy the Cisco will need to pass traffic on port 80. If you want to run VPN Services through the Cisco the Bordermanager Server would have to have a Routable, Valid IP address and the Cisco Firewall can not be running NAT - though this restriction may not apply with BM 3.6 due soon. For Client to site VPN the Cisco needs to be able to pass UPD and TCP port 353, UDP port 2010 and TCP port 213 with a protocol ID of 57.

Re: Pass-thru DMZ?
A demilitarized zone (DMZ) is to protect your publicly reachable servers behind the firewall. The difference between the more common scenario with two interfaces and the DMZ, where you use three interfaces, is that the third interface is a separate segment to which you connect your publicly reachable servers. This includes for example your web server, mail server, dns and others. You can set up light filtering to your DMZ interface in addition to a more rigorous filtering to the private interface. A DMZ will typically have - - a public interface, which connects to an ISP - a private interface, which connects to your Internal LAN - a DMZ interface, which connects to a separate segment where your publicly reachable servers are.

Re: Fw: All CCNA 2.0 & CCNP 2.o Beta Questions - FREE
Guys The best practice is surely to write your own questions based on the course text. You will find in order to frame the questions, you need to know the answers and therefore the subject. And as Frank mentioned, test questions then become irrelevant. I've tried this on 14 Prometric exams for a range of qualifications including Cisco.. and I have managed to pass every one [thank God].
