A valid observation.  Still, with this specific post, there doesn't 
seem to be either a threat assessment or a security policy, just a

  I'm concerned with the goal statement of the original poster, Want

  virus attack isn't even a network security issue -- it's a host

I'd say diversity is the key.  I know several CCIEs who, outside of R/S
don't have much to offer in the way of skillset and they are not commanding
as high of salaries as guys without a number but deeper and more diverse
expertise.  It totally depends on the individual, the need, the location and
the experiences (which are unique to and every one of us).

So basically, you want us to lie, eh?  ;-.  

Seriously, CCIE salaries have been down for awhile and any honest discussion
about salaries is going to be necessarily negative.  When something's black,
it would be a lie to call it white.

As far as the original question, so much depends on your experience level,
the geographical location, things like holding a degree (or not).  Strong
candidates that have lots of experience, are well educated, and are in
places can still pull nice salaries.  But I'm also aware of CCIE's applying
for positions that pay less than 30k - and not getting them.  The point is
that the CCIE by itself guarantees nothing.

Are you looking for just one or more ports?  Perle makes a
greatone that
has SSH support for remote access. If you are looking for modem
access
just plug up an external modem to the port using the cisco
adapters and
console cable. Then configure the router to init the modem and
answer it.

RE: Snort versus Cisco IDS [7:62939]

2003-02-14 Thread Will Gragido
Exactly!  Great points Paul, SNORT truly is top drawer.  There are so many
good reasons to use it (price, continual updates etc.).  I would advise
anyone interested in IDS though to consider using two variants (signature
based, anomaly based, application behavior based et al).  This will provide
a sanity check and help mitigate false positives.

The thing that makes SNORT so powerful is the attack rules which are
updated almost daily.  Also, you can not beat the price.  Simply find an
unused PC, install Linux and install Snort.  The software and OS is
free! 

You will need some sort of parsing software to read the snort logs.
Check out ACID (http://acidlab.sourceforge.net/) or SnortSnarf.

I can tell you for a 100% fact that Cisco recommends their IDS very

How
 do Snort and Cisco IDS compare? I guess Cisco's solution is a bit more

Cisco IDS is a commercial, fully baked product in the sense that it has
a lot of bells and whistles for the end-user market.  Cisco is also
developing custom hardware such as blades that slide into a Cat 6500,
making for easy deployment and the ability to capture and process
traffic at Gigabit speeds.

Snort is much more of a tech geeks solution, although there are a lot of
talented people writing code to increase its ease of use such. (things
like ACID and Demarc)

The bottom line is that snort will do the job in a lot of environments,
but your going to need to have some very technical people to handle the
care and feeding of the system.  It is an open source solution and
doesn't come with built-in support other than what you get through
mailing lists.  The Cisco IDS comes with TAC behind it.  You pay more
for more support baked into the process and a large amount of dedicated
resources working on your issues. (it's the same old open source vs
commercial product argument)

For small environments where funds are very limited or for environments
with highly technical but cheap labor (such as universities), snort is
probably the better solution.  For large enterprises, Cisco would
probably be the better choice.  

Of course, YMMV, a lot depends on the environment, , that's my opinion,

cisco don't use ciscoworks for managing their internal production

perfect examples.

oh boy, this is a loaded question.but since you asked, in my opinion
i'm
simply impressed by the rule sets that are being generated for snort as
compared to cisco ids...perfect example was slammer worm virus. snort
community had the rule set out in matter of couple hours. if need be you
can
even get commercial support for snort similar to linux and mrtg. one
could
argue between hardware and software ids solutions similar to hardware
and
software ipsec encryption solutions. we can talk about this all day ;-)

ultimately its upto you to  make that decision, weighing pros and cons

Not necessarily Scott.  You've got to be able to prove (in others words have

the security field.  Now, the caveat is that your work can be spread amongst
the ten domains or relegated to one as long as your total time meets the
minimum criteria.  Then you are eligible to test.  Once you test and pass,
you must then be sponsored by a CISSP in good standing.

 I was wondering if anyone else has been experiencing problems with Cisco's
 IDS sensor appliance (formerly Netranger).  Almost every time I load a
 service pack or new signature file I end up rebuilding the device from
 scratch using the install CD's.  I've filed multiple cases with TAC, with
 little help recieved.  I've even spoken to the product manager for the
 devices and still can't seem to stabilize these things.

 Anyone else using Cisco IDS appliances?  If so, how's your luck with them?

 Thanks,

RE: No longer 4 digits [7:52146]

2002-08-27 Thread Gragido, William

Its been a long time coming folks.  In the grand scheme of things, I'd say
that the 5 digit is right about on time considering that other elite
industry certs that have been around for approximately the same amount of
time are either or already there or way past that.  I don't think that it
will hurt the value of the cert because once again at the end of the day,
its the engineer/consultant/analyst et al, that makes the cert not the other
way around.

   Imran was pretty tough, I remember talking to him at networkers in
 Denver when the CCIE recert first came out and about 100 of us took the

The CCIP isn't supposed to be a replacement for CCIE.  CCIP is a

enterprise(read boring) things like bridging and dial and instead focuses on
service provider technologies.  That being said, I've completed two CCIP

At any rate, if you want a service provider replacement for CCIE RS it is
CCIE CS, not CCIP.

I believe your issue may relate to the single IP stack on 2000.  Try
defaulting traffic to the internet and adding a static route to the
   internal
network opposed to specifying the gateway on the internal IP
interface.
Also I would go as far as disabling any NETBIOS on the external

for security.

 Thank you for the reply.  I am afraid you may have misunderstood

 192.168.1.2
  |
 router B
  |
 192.168.2.1


 The problem happens on Host A.  Host A is a WebServer with  2
   interfaces:
a
 public (which goes out to the internet) and a private (which talks
to
   the
 database).  The private interface has IP 192.168.0.150 and default
GW
 192.168.0.1.  The public has ip 128.59.39.3 and default GW
 128.59.39.2.
 Everything works fine if I leave the private interface's default
GW
   blank.
 If I put Router C's address as the private interface's default
 gateway,
 after some time I cannot ping anywhere from Host A, even though I
can
   ping
 it from the outside world.  I need to have the private interface
configured
 with 192.168.0.1 as the default GW because remote users need to be
 able
   to
 connect to that server via the back-end T1.  Any light would be
 greatly
 appreciated.

  them).

 Significant?  Help me understand the extent to which you use that word?
If
 you're a proctor for CCIE labs and saw people day in and day out, then I
 would take your word for it.  I have yet to take the lab, but I'm
trying
 to understand how someone could make it through the lab and still be
 considered paper.  Is the lab that big of a joke?  Consider it's
very
 high fail rate, I can't see it being so easy that people can't pass
 without understanding what they're doing?   At least to the same level
that
 anyone else who ever passed the lab did  Personally I use paper to
mean
 someone with a cert that doesn't have any hands-on to match it  like
 paper MSCE.. I worked with this kid who was 19, has his MSCE, CNE, and
 Master CNE, but had zero hands on definitely paper...  but we're
talking
 the CCIE lab here. it's simply not possible (IMHO) to pass the lab
 without at least a minimum of hands-on (whether in a job or on practice
 equipment) to give one the skills to pass.

  But I do agree with the premise that the main reason for the devaluing
of
  the cert is the bad economy, and the lab-rats are a lesser consideration
  (still important, but lesser).  But on the other hand, I think it is the
  case that the CCIE will probably never attain the status that it once
did,
  simply because the we will probably never see another huge network
 buildout
  orgy  like the dotcom boom again in our lifetime.  So while I believe
the
  networking industry will get better, people who thinks it's going to get
  back to, say, 1999, are just deluding themselves.

 Agreed  I don't thik we'll see things back like there were a couple of
 years ago.  But I'm trying to draw a fine distinction between the
devaluing
 of a cert (due to shoddy cert process) -vs- the salary that one pulls in
 with the cert.  The CCIEs now (in general) don't make and probably in the
 future won't make what CCIEs of two years ago did.  Is this a devaluation
of
 the cert.  Certainly not.  That's the market that's the economy  I
 don't believe that has much to do with whether employers and network
 professionals value the certification (i.e. consider someone with CCIE
to
 be a true expert in networking).

I also agree with you on many points.  But anyway, inline




 I see your point about people not skipping the tech interview because of
 CCIE.  And I also agree that it's a good thing.  After all, when 'lab
rats'
 (as you call them) are applying for jobs, it just makes sense that one
would
 give a tough interview to weed them out.  However, one must ask themselves
 What is the purpose of the cert?  Just like a college degree in, say
 Computer Science.  The BS in CS doesn't guarantee an employer that the
 person has experience, say, with PERL.  However, the degree indicates that
 this person can learn and understand the logic of programming, etc.  I
don't
 think the purpose of the CCIE (or any Cisco cert) is to guarentee
knowledge
 of  absolutely everything in networking.  That's not possible.  However, I
 believe that it does indicate an advanced level of understanding of
network
 principles as well as knowledge of specific technologies (EIGRP, HSRP,
 DLSw+, etc).  So, as in your example of the person that didn't learn BGP
 because it wasn't required for the cert, I have to say So what.  That
 wasn't the point of the CCIE.  The CCNP cert doesn't cover IS-IS, for
 example, but I would hope anyone with CCNP could sit down, read about
IS-IS,
 know how to look up IS-IS related commands on Cisco's site, and then
 implement what needs to be implemented.  That's, IMHO, the purpose of
 obtaining the cert.

This is absolutely true, nobody can know everything, and the CCIE was never
designed to do that.

On the other hand, there is a major difference between somebody who admits
he doesn't know the answer, but can probably look it up, and somebody who
boldly states something that is flatly wrong.  For example, with that guy I
interviewed who claimed that CEF can only be run on a GSR, clearly this was
a case where he was trying to snow me.   Now I admit, I was trying to trick
him (I deliberately pretended that I knew nothing about networks because I
wanted to see what kinds of things he would say if he didn't think I was a
networking guy myself), and boy, was he tricked.



  It's certainly not a big joke, it's just that yes you really can pass
the
  lab without experience.   Granted, you need dedication and you need
money
 to
  buy a home lab.

  Exactly - you need practice equipment.  So you don't need a real job
that
  provides hands-on equipment. You just need a lab, a lot of time, and a
lot
  of money for exam attempts (or a willingness to go into debt).  But a
  networking job?  Not really, not to pass the lab.

 I understand your differentiation between real-world hands-on and practice
 lab (lab rat) hands-on.  I truly do.  But, again, it's like the college
 degree thing.  If a company wants someone who has experience, they'll
 interview and ask questions that only seasoned professionals could answer.
 But, if they want someone with a certain level of knowledge, demonstrated
 ability to learn new things, and the ability to find resources and answer
 questions, then that could be a seasoned professional or someone that's
 certified (or someone with both).  On the flip side of your argument, I've
 met people that are trying to get into networking from the telco side, and
 could explain in great detail how a T1 works, but couldn't explain HSRP (a
 very simple thing to understand and setup) to save their life.  Doesn't
mean
 their stupid, just not exposed to it.  And the cert provides exposure to
 these things, whether real world or lab rat

RE: Security advice - opening ports other than 80 and 443 in[7: [7:42356]

2002-04-23 Thread William Gragido

Do you load balance traffic to your fire wall(s)?  If so, what methodology
and more importantly, whose technology are you using.  For example, if you
were utilizing Foundry Networks ServerIronXLs and are employing a sandwich
architecture, you could not only switch based on the protocol and in effect
load balance all port 80 and 443 traffic to different devices respectively,
you could also provide nimda/code red (sic Trojan) mitigation.  I believe
that Cisco's CSS switches will allow you the same functionality but am not
quite up to speed on that gear. Security Policies gain legitimacy through
actions.  Your Security Policy and Procedures should act as a point of
reference to for your Rulesets, however it will be up to you as the
administrator, working with your ITSEC team and business units to define and
streamline your identify the types of traffic you will need to allow entry
and exit from your network in order to maintain normal business conditions.
Remember the more complex a solution is, the greater the risk due to
learning curve, configuration etc.   you are concerned about Worms and
viruses infiltrating hosts within or past a zone/dmz you may wish to explore
not only Network Based Intrusion Detection, but Host Based as well.

a good security policy would have had this matetr taken care of as soon as
it sprouted!  :)   (not directed to you Sam, just replying to thread)  :)

that aside,

1) opening up every port on the firewall is not danegrous unless you have
something accesible via the firewall listening on a specific port.

2) it only takes one server to be hacked to bring a network to a stop

3) 1 should never happen because it is highly insecure..  :)

 sam sneed  04/23/02 12:41PM 
They can do more than just bring the server down. They can gain control of
the server and have it attack other servers on your network or outside
network. ex. the IIS code red worm only needed port 80 to be open on
Winblows servers to spread across the internet.

Absolutely, positively wrong, though. That's an urban legend that has
been disavowed by every early developer I can think of, including the
DARPA people. It developed out of pure DARPA sponsored research in
networking.

I'm hard-pressed to think of any nuclear command  control
communications system, before the mid-80's or so, that used TCP/IP,
and at one time I knew pretty much every system that was deployed.
Among the ones I can talk about, they were circuit-switched or radio.
Some of the circuit-switched networks were computer controlled,
including AUTODIN I and a variety of intelligent networks.

Without detailed research, I'd tend to say the first military TCP/IP
applications were in tactical, not strategic, nets.

Actually, the first demonstration that packet switched networks were
resilient to massive attack came from the Iraqi air defense system in
Desert Storm.

   The DoD adopted TCP/IP as its native protocol for communications in
1983.
   DARPA lead the charge for a communications system that would be
resilient
   to
   Global Thermal Nuclear attacks (therein allowing for continued,
   uninterrupted comm), and would allow for common connectivity of
   multi-vendor
   solutions.  This of course did yield 'ARPA NET' which, by a decision
of
 the
   DCA (Defense Communications Agency), in 1983 was split in two yielding
a
   smaller version of 'ARPA NET' and 'MILNET'.  The evolution of the
modern
   internet can followed done the line from 'ARPA NET' and as we all know
by
   virtue of adding new networks to the mix, 'ARPA NET' was de-regulated
in
   1991 ushering the age of the modern internet.

I'm sure you'll get flamed for advertising your own book, but I'm going to
give you a hard time also for lack of accuracy. ;-)

Top-Down Network Design is not a certification book, but it is based on the
work I did on both the Designing Cisco Networks (DCN) and the Cisco
Internetwork Design (CID) training classes when I worked for Cisco.

I have heard that Cisco has made CID match my Top-Down Network Design book
even more closely than before. I know for a fact that the description of
the CID course is taken from my Top-Down Network Design book. I did a
double-take when I read the following text from the description of the CID
class here:
http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/front.x/wwtraining/CELC/index.cgi?action=Cours
eDescCOURSE_ID=321

Good internetwork design recognizes a customer's requirements embody many
business and technical goals, including requirements for availability,
scalability, affordability, security, and manageability. Difficult
internetwork design choices and tradeoffs must be made when designing the
internetwork before any physical devices or media are selected.

CID covers typical internetwork design business and technical goals and
constraints. CID details the top-down design process and the importance of
using systematic methods for internetwork design. Using systematic methods
helps you, the internetwork designer, to keep pace with changing
technologies and customer requirements.

I said to myself, Hey I wrote that. Oh yeah, I should have had a lawyer
look at my book contract. Cisco can use anything I wrote in the book.
Bummer. or maybe not?? ;-]

Absolutely, positively wrong, though. That's an urban legend that has
been disavowed by every early developer I can think of, including the
DARPA people. It developed out of pure DARPA sponsored research in
networking.

I'm hard-pressed to think of any nuclear command  control
communications system, before the mid-80's or so, that used TCP/IP,
and at one time I knew pretty much every system that was deployed.
Among the ones I can talk about, they were circuit-switched or radio.
Some of the circuit-switched networks were computer controlled,
including AUTODIN I and a variety of intelligent networks.

Without detailed research, I'd tend to say the first military TCP/IP
applications were in tactical, not strategic, nets.

Actually, the first demonstration that packet switched networks were
resilient to massive attack came from the Iraqi air defense system in
Desert Storm.

   DARPA lead the charge for a communications system that would be

by
   virtue of adding new networks to the mix, 'ARPA NET' was de-regulated
in

The CID exam was recently updated. The new objectives are on the web
site.
The SNA and extensive ATM coverage is gone. Also Appletalk, IPX, DLSW,
are gone as well.

The exam is 90 minutes long with 75 questions and the passing score is
755.

The Cisco Press CID study guide is OK but the CID exam guide is
terrible. They both have extensive SNA coverage, but like I said, is not
part of the exam any longer.

I highly recommend the Top-Down Network Design book as the new CID
guide. Besides being a great book, it has all that you'll need for the
CID exam provided you are a CCNP.

In my opinion, the new CID exam is not anymore difficult than the CCNP
exams.

Good luck to you.

The standards are constantly being revised.  Reality is, however, that for

don't even get me started on this. I work for an organization that uses
employee SSN numbers for validation purposes in a lot of instances. So when
I call the Help Desk to complain about e-mail ( an ongoing problem ) I am
asked to provide my SSN to the folks there. In these days of rampant and
easy identity theft, how smart is it to allow access to a large database of
valid SSN's to practically everyone who asks?

HIPAA??? isn't that on hold for review?  You know, I was reading through one
of the drafts and I thought I saw something that floored me - the regulators
were stating that multiplexed links such as frame relay and ATM were
considered unsecure because different organizations were sharing circuits.
The implication was that healthcare organizations would have to move to
point to point technologies - most of which end up passing through ATM
backbones anyway. Sheesh.

Longer term I believe that security solutions will involve end to end
encryption - server to host, on the LAN as well as the WAN, in addition to
what is already done on VPN's.

I always liked the HIPAA provision about management responsibility and
management fines and jail time for failure to comply. Wish that were so in a
lot of other industries where I have worked. ;-

point of concern within an organization, specifically if they are not
monitored or accounted for.  Unless you have a ton of them out on your
network, I wouldn't worry too much about it.  Its a good idea to conduct an
assessment though and evaluate where your organization is from a security
perspective and see if change is warranted.

Later,

Will

RE: Secret Clearance? [7:4152]

2002-02-12 Thread William Gragido

Well, since this is obviously a never ending thread I'll add my 2 cents.  I
have a Top Secret SCI that is still valid from my active duty period in the
USMC.  In regards to joining the service just to get a clearance, I'd say
thats some of the most low brow thinking that I've ever heard.  There are no
guarantees that you'll get one.  It all depends on the investigation and
what they unearth, so don't be fooled into thinking that simply by selecting
an MOS that requires a clearance you'll automatically qualify.  Its not the
case.  I saw Marines go through schools only to be turned down for
clearances.  I was lucky and had nothing in my background that would
prohibit my from obtaining one, but again, it all depends on what one's
civilian life is compromised of that helps dictates whehter or not a person
rates one.

Ohh that's a good idea, then when you get orders to Bosnia, Somalia, Kuwait,
or Afghanistan, you can be like the whiners of Desert Storm that cried about
joining to get an education, not to go to war. Only this time it will be
about getting a security clearance instead of going to war!

While you can get a security clearance in the military, it is not valid
after leaving the military unless it is documented correctly. However the
reinstatement cost can be drastically reduced since the previous leg work
has already been done.

RE: CCIE starting pay [7:33899]

2002-01-31 Thread William Gragido

No, not at all.  Here's my take on this.  First off:  No company in their
right minds will take a 'CCIE with no work experience' and pay him/her top
dollar or anything even near the perimeter of top dollar.  Why might you
ask?  Due to the impracticality of such an undertaking.  There is a
possibility that a VAR might do so only to further garnish their
relationship with the Vendor, but I still feel that it is unlikely.
Secondly, what in your humble/honest opinion do you perceive a CCIE with no
work experience is worth?  Be honest, be truthful.  This may be a difficult
concept to face but reality tells me after being in this biz my entire adult
life that a person with this certification and no practical experience is an
entry level person who shows promise and got lucky.

My two cents,

Regards,

Will

Sniffers DSS can be useful to grab stuff off of remote networks and they

 I spent about 2 months to pass all the CCNP exams with good scores:
 Switching 946, Remote 920 and Routing 962.
 
 The books I used for preparation are focus on Cisco's Study Guide, and I
 think Lammle's book for CCNA is perfect, but the others are not good for
 CCNP.
 
 Boson's test questions are very good and cover almost all the topics
 reauired by the examinations.
 
 Furthermore, those 2 bibles from  Doyle and Halabi are good for in-depth
 study.

People are getting their CCIE in an attempt to get big bucks.

I always here I need to get my CCIE and/or my MCSE to get into the
computer feild. That's what happened to the CNE. People studied their
little brains out, past the test but when the server crashed they had no
experience to get it back up because as we all know there is a HUGE
difference between the controlled lab and a real WAN. This made
employers think why should I  hire one of these guys if they can not

staff and they had asked for help in the interview process. The
followign is
just one example of an interview, but it goes for all 3 and more.


All goes well until the first CCIE candidate asks about money and was
told
its 60K (UK Sterling) no frills no overtime, maybe a car, but you only
work
at one site. This to work in London, where CCIE used to command 100K+


So I did some checking with some friends who work as recruitment
consultants
and yes 60-70K is topline now for a CCIE, and 30K for CCNP with 5 years
experience, its a lot less without experience IF you get a job.

The reasons behind this

a. Recession - so everyone will run for cover and take a permanent job.
b. CCIE's are plentiful and therefore cheap and CCNP's are even worse
off

Now this is the view from the employer(s).

I can print here what the Cisco account manager(s) said to me afterwards
as
we talked on the train home, but they and some of their associates are
taking the message back, 'we have got it wrong' in trying to turen out
CCIE's too quickly.

RE: Class C IP range! [7:26814]

2001-11-21 Thread William Gragido

I think what Howard is alluding to is that in most cases the push for IPv4
address space conservation has made it, in general , more difficult than it
has been in the past to secure entire Class Cs.  I agree with Howard that it
is more prudent to design an interior IP schema using private addressing and
then seek only routable, registered addresses for external Interfaces.  My
two cents.

Howard,

For the sake of IP address conservation, I would like to believe what you
say.

Unfortunately I happen to know several small companies  that were able to
secure entire Class C's with nary a protest from their ISP's, and yes they
are all  globally routed.  The most addresses any one of those companies is
using within that class range is 10 of those addresses - waste galore.
Apparently many ISP's aren't as vigilant as they should be.

 What do you want to do with it?  In the real world, it can be very
 hard to get a provider-independent /24, and even harder to get it
 globally routed.  Your best solution may be to design your
 environment to be renumbering-friendly, and get a /24 from your
 upstream provider.

 In general, you will have to demonstrate 50% immediate use of a /20
 to get your own allocation.

 Incidentally, don't think Class C in getting assignments, think /24
 (if that's what you actually need). Class-based allocation is long
 obsolete in the public network, regardless of what Cisco teaches in
 basic courses.

I agree Checkpoint's support is terrible, and Cisco provides great support
for any of their products. I like Checkpoint because how flexible it is, the
features it provides and the great logging features of it. But it is very
expensive. Most of my clients run a PIX as a firewall, mainly because of the
price, but when my clients need to have a lot of functionality like multiple
vpns, e-mail stripping, etc, Checkpoint is the best for that (my biased
option. :) ). Although Checkpoint's support is terrible Nokia provides
excellent support for Checkpoint. If you buy a Checkpoint firewall, I highly
recommend running it on the Nokia IP platform because of how easy it is to
set up and Nokia's support is great. They know more about Checkpoint than
Checkpoints engineers do. Every time I have called Nokia, an engineer was on
the phone resolving my issue in about 60 secs. Not only that but they are
friendly too (something you don't see often.).

 wondering if anyone had the same problem.

 One of my clients wanted to try Checkpoint VPN-1 so I
 filled out online eval form a month ago. A sales rep
 called me the next day and said a reseller would
 contact me in 5-10 days (5-10 minutes would make more
 sense). I didn't hear nothing in 3 weeks so I filled
 out online eval form again (I lost that rep's phone
 number) and another sales rep called me said the same
 thing. Now another week passed and I still didn't hear
 nothing.

 My client is very unhappy so he decide to go with
 Cisco. Is Checkpoint's business so good that they
 couldn't handle or what? Anyway, Checkpoint lost my
 client and I would never work with them again.

RE: Network utilization levels... [7:21884]

In order to accurately gauge a networks utilization you need to establish a
baseline and from there evaluate over time, using tools such as VitalSuite,
Concord or MTRG to verify your data.  Once this is complete, trend analysis
can begin and you can begin to formulate an accurate picture of your
networks performance.  There are, of course, other methods and tools that
can be utilized for the purpose of performance engineering.  If you are
working with a specific application and its affect on overall network
performance check out Optimal's Application Expert.

One thing to keep in mind..

A percentage can lie about network performance. If you take a network with a
low percentage of traffic based on byte count but a high number of small
packets ( Citrix), you can easily have an overloaded router/switch but
without the gross load on the wire you might expect. The overload comes from
trying to process all the dinky packets which need to be checked, read,
forwarded, folded etc.

this really does happen as I just did an analysis on a Citrix server farm of
over 30 servers hooked to a rather overloaded router. Fun traces showed up
on that.

 That is the biggest load of crap I've ever

   brainwashed!  The common
   person in the middle east would give anything to
   come and live in the
   U.S. and get out of their hell hole they call home.
   Believe me, I did 2
   years there, it sucks!!! Nothing worth keeping in
   that part of the
   World.  I don't see all those God forsaken
   countries having a problem
   with people wanting to immigrate there!  If they
   believe they are
   God's chosen people, why didn't he make them from
   Hawaii, or
   Switzerland, or some other nice part of this World?
They don't have
   the open airways or free flow of information to make
   logical decisions.
   They only believe what their ignorant and jealous
   leaders tell them.

I need to get some feedback on the type of memory to put into a Cisco
equipment.  Two of the most popular are Cisco memory and Kingston.  Of
course Cisco is a lot more expensive than Kingston.  Which memory do you
recommended getting and are there any issues with getting Kingston.  By
issues I mean are there any known bugs, compatibility, etc.

Thanks.

RE: how to make a router firewall? [7:18268]

2001-09-05 Thread William Gragido

The firewall IOS is quite good however, if you do not wish to utilize it you
can simply create ACLs that reflect your desires accordingly.  ACLs are in
laymans terms, the low brow fire wall rule set so have at it!

Subject: how to make a router firewall? [7:18268]


Hello,

I'm trying to make a 1720 router as firewall. What IOS
should I use? What ACLs should I put in the router? My
understanding on firewall is to allow outgoing traffic
and block incoming traffic unless it's originated from
inside, is it correct?

Thanks in advance.

Jim
