RE: Frame Relay Switch [7:75019]

[Zhao Frank]

I share my idea with you blow:

Please application 2 ISDN lines and buy 2 ISDN modems, in china, you only
need to pay RMB 50 per month for the lines, so cheap.

Good luck!

It sounds like this is a hypothetical packet and situation that Cisco quality

It's sort of an age-old security question of how much info to publish. The
info
would help the white hats, but also the black hats.

Unfortunately, I can't look at bug reports (even with my guest access!?)
Maybe
there's more in the bug reports. I still want to know more about these
packets.
:-) But I guess I'll have to do more research

Re: number of CCIE [7:70151]

[garcia frank]

Regarding what Carroll Kong wrote -

 I guess we have to wonder what Cisco's ultimate goals are. If they
decreased the lab time and altered the exam to be more 'streamlined' and
'easier', why would they immediately step backwards?

In my experience taking the lab, I must say the 1-day lab is not necessarily
easier than the 2-day.  It may be more streamlined but it is not easier. 
The difficulty is still there.  I passed on my 5th attempt and met the 2-day
format a couple of times during my journey.  My first lab exam with some now
obsolete content (appletalk, etc.) in the picture seems easier to me now in
comparison to what I saw the last time.  Either way, I'm a proud high number

RE: New Instructor Experiences [7:62826]

I don't know about you, but public speaking is one of the hardest skills
I've had to learn.

I've noticed that there are lots of 'fear-enhancing' factors that can
become involved; they can vary from person to person - some speakers
completely lose it when handling a difficult audience-member, or trying
out new material, or typing/demoing while speaking.  For myself, it
seems having a video-camera in the room will completely trip me up.  I
can't tell you the number of times I've presented material well (good
survey results and everything), only to #@%$ it up completely when
having to record it for a Video-on-demand session.  Urg.  Makes me wish
that they'd just use a handheld camera and not tell me it's in the room.

I just feel the need to rant/vent for a bit and I knew there were a
bunch of you who might be able to relate to this.  I've started teaching
a short, one-session general networking class for some of the people
here at the bank.  The first session, which was really just a runthrough
with a handful of students, went fairly well.  In fact, it went so well
that they increased the number of overall attendees to about 60 or so.

Last week I had another session that went exceptionally well, except for
a couple of students who really didn't want to be there.  I couldn't
have asked for it to go better, and my boss heard lots of good things
about it.  One person even said I should be a professor!  :-)  Now, that
brings us to today

Today I had an afternoon class, and in my opinion it sucked rotten
eggs.  I feel embarrassed to have been involved with it.I can't
think of too many ways in which it could have gone worse.  I rambled, I
flew through 2.5 hours of material in about an hour, I lost my place a
lot.  I'm not certain that I ever formed a train of thought longer than
a couple of cars, and I think even those trains were without engine and
caboose.

Have any of you other instructors had days like that?  As I even
mentioned in class, I felt like my 'explainer' was broken today, and it
certainly was.  I'm hoping that I could get some sympathy from other
instructors with similar experiences.

Okay, I'm going to go drown my disappointment in some coffee!

RE: Cat6500 PSU interoperability [7:60949]

[Frank Jimenez]

That's really interesting - I noticed at the bottom of the config that
each PS looks like it is only generating 1150W.


PS1 Capacity: 1153.32 Watts (27.46 Amps @42V)
PS2 Capacity: 1153.32 Watts (27.46 Amps @42V)


I'm guessing that somewhere along the way, a check was added for this
situation and CatOS assumes the lower capacity PS to be the 'correct'
Wattage for both.  Just a guess.

Although it appears to function, I don't know that I'd trust it
completely or if TAC would have an issue with it.

Since both are allowed in 5.2, you should be able to use either set of

Having said that, the trend is definitely toward access-lists rather
than the conduit format in the real world.  IIRC, the new FWSM module
doesn't allow conduits at all.

RE: On Topic Design Question - sizing a router or switch [7:60374]

[Frank Jimenez]

One thing you've missed is 'what protocol'?  While most routers are
multiprotocol, a disturbing number of L3 switches are IP only.  It's
amazing how much 'not IP' is still out there and needs to be accounted
for...


When I sit down with a customer, I usually try and ask questions that
are more business specific.  What are you using the network for today?
What about tomorrow?  Any plans on running Voice applications?  Video?
Storage Networking?

Then I try to figure out what timeframe the customer is buying for - is
this something for a particular project or immediate need and can be
immediately discarded?  Or is this something that has to last for a long
time - and how long is long?

And lastly - What is the budget?  Even if a customer *needs* a BFR (big
fast router) - if the budget is only $3000, some obvious compromises
will need to be made.

Only then does it make sense to dive into the technical details of flow
rates, CPU usage, latency needs, etc.

Subject: On Topic Design Question - sizing a router or switch [7:60361]


This one came up at the water cooler the other day.

When going through the design process, what factors are useful for
determining router and switch equipment requirements. In other words,
how do I know when it is time to upgrade my router? Not numbers and
types of ports, but what factors should be considered when determining
if a router or switch will have sufficient horsepower to serve an
organization's need for the purpose and time frame required.

For example, if I were to determine that my requirement is ATM DS3,
simple QoS ( for voice prioritization ) my non voice data will flow at
10 megabits peak on the WAN and typical flow of 3 megabits, and that my
voice traffic will use G729 and end up with about 1 megabit average and
3 megabit peak.

I can look at things like Cisco's published numbers on PPS, I can set up
a test lab, simulate traffic flow, and check out CPU usage. I suppose if
I were very sophisticated, I could measure throughput, latency, etc.

I understand that as with all things networked, the answer is it
depends. things like access-lists, process switching, policy routing,
etc can effect things.

Some of us are just debating whether or not CPU utilization is the

brought into the mix of factors to consider?

Just wondering.

Re: SNMP Filter [7:60100]

[Frank]

Hi,

you can create an snmp view and secure this with an access-list. This way
you can deny any snmp requests to your box and allow your own ranges.

Another way ( the hard way ;-) is to configure the snmp responses to come
from the loopback address and then start filtering outbound traffic from
that address on port 161. This is what you mean I think but I would advise
you to use the first example.

cheers

answer to SNMP requests or whether all IP addresses on
the router answer to SNMP request. I dont want to
filter SNMP bettween customer sides therefore i can
not use Access-lists on all router interfaces in order

specific IP to answer to request then it is possible
to use access list and deny SNMP requests to the

Any help will be appreciated

Subject: campus LAN design w/DHCP server [7:59578]


Sorry if this is a dumb question! ;-) I want to make sure this design
will work before implementing it.

The customer has been using 192.168.168.0/24 in one small flat LAN. He
has run out of these addresses and is being hit by performance issues
related to broadcasts.

He wants to implement subnets and VLANs:

VLAN 100 192.168.168.0/24
VLAN 200 192.168.169.0/24

New design:

 Internet
 |
 s0
  2600 router e1 --- public servers
 e0
 | dot1q trunk
   switch
VLAN 200 VLAN 100

There is just one DHCP server. It will be in VLAN 100, address
192.168.168.10. The DHCP server will have 2 scopes for the 2 subnets.

We're going to do inter-VLAN routing on the 2600 router.

Will this config work as far as DHCP is concerned?

interface ethernet 0
no ip address
interface ethernet 0.1
encapsulation dot1q  100
ip address 192.168.168.1  255.255.255.0
interface ethernet 0.2
encapsulation dot1q  200
ip address 192.168.169.1  255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 192.168.168.10

Devices in VLAN 100 will broadcast and get to the DHCP server directly.
The DHCP server is in their VLAN/subnet.

Devices in VLAN 200 will broadcast. The router will hopefully pick up
the broadcast, convert it to a unicast to the DHCP server and send it
back out e0, with the GIADDR address filled in so the server will use
the right scope.

Sounds like it should work, but for some unknown reason, I couldn't find
an example that showed this.

Thanks so much for your help. You could save my Christmas by helping me
verify (or poke holes) in this design! I just wanted to check on the
DHCP aspect at this point. I can fix up the NAT and routing. My brain
stopped working after the last egg nog, so help is needed! :-)

The trick here is that you have to manually set both sides.  You would

 Cisco recommends fixed configuration too.

 For my surprise,   802.3 specification states:

 It is strongly recommended that Auto-Negotiation be used
 ... Manual configuration is not recommended

Probably won't help you in this situation, but in CiscoWorks 2000, there
is a feature in Campus Manager called User Tracking that associates a
UserName with a MAC Address and with a Device/Port combination.  Has
saved my bacon in several cases similar to yours.

Assuming it's Cisco gear, you could also start at the core switch and do
either a 'show cam dynamic' or a 'show mac-address-table' and try to
follow the uplinks until you end up at an access port with your MAC
address

I don't think there's any answer to this, but I thought I would check.
How can I find the physical location of a system if I know the
following:

NetBIOS name, IP address, MAC Address, and the Domain it is attached
too.

I have a system that is trying to become the Master Browser and I've
discovered all of the above information. The problem is, it's a large
flat network, so the IP address comes from a huge pool and doesn't help
identify a network segment. The NetBIOS name isn't helpful and the
vendor code in the MAC address is shared by almost all the systems.

Any utilities that you know of that could help find this station?

It's a city-wide school system and driving around from school to school
isn't practical, although it is a rather small city... :-)

Any info would be great. Thanks.

TIA,

You could use a server connected to a SAN as a sort of NAS. I do not know
what you mean by sharing the data in a transparent way amoung n
serversyes you could share data from a nas amoung n servers. This NAS /
SAN combo is used by many vendors. Only one machine will see the lun as its
own, that machine would then share it out to the other machines, unless you
used a snapshot or a clone of that disk, but then the other servers would
have to be connected to the SAN.

I have, related to this last part of NAS vs SAN. Can we use SAN as a
NAS? I mean, can we share (the same) central data in a transparent way
among n servers? Will this work as a NAS on steroids? Is this
supported/used on any platform? Are we talking about exclusive or
concurrential disk accesses? Does this bring problems on data
consistency? (well, every machine sees the disks as their own...) Is it
possible at all?

FW: Storage Area Networking [7:56857]

Storage Area Netorking is just a way to enable storage to be used like a
utility. It simplifies management by consolidating all of your storage into
a virtual pool for you to be able to draw from at any time. Enabling you to
get the full use out of the storage that you have paid for. Most SANS have
the ability to take advantage of cloning, snapshots, replication and virtual
disks. Network attached storage is more like an optimized file server. SANS
present the storage to the servers as if they were actual physical disks on
the server. If you have more questions I would be happy to answer.

Whoa, hold on there a second.  Although the 6500 and 3550 CAN have different

If the 6500 in question (with an MSFC of course) is running Native IOS
instead of the formerly more common CatOS/IOS Hybrid, then it does have the
same CLI as a 3550.

However, even with that there are some functional differences relating to
things such as clustering and the like.

If the 6500 with Native IOS can be mastered, there is little more to do to
learning a 3550, and that can be accomplished in a relatively short time on
a rental rack that has at least one 3550.

Good Luck!

 could pick up a 3524XL or a 2900XL series switch, however, they
 won't
 include features such as Layer 3 routing functionality and
 advanced QoS
 features that are included with the 3550 which will probably
 show up on the
 CCIE Lab. However, the IOS-based command sets on the 3524XL and
 2900XL
 series switches are very similar to the 3550 and would allow
 you to practice
 IOS-based commands and learn the Layer 2 functionality. Still,
 in my
 opinion, your best bet is to either purchase a 3550 or rent
 some 3550 rack
 time.

Although it may be indicative of an issue, it certainly isn't necessarily one.

One drawback with 1918 addresses on intermediate physical
 interfaces is
that
this too makes troubleshooting more difficult.
Entities outside of
your domain may troublsehoot problems in or through your
 network using
traceroute.
   
   Like you said, troubleshooting within your own domain is
 fine.  It only
   makes troubleshooting more difficult for people who are
 outside your domain.
   But unless they happen to be paying customers, do you really
 care?  And even
   if they do care, do you think it's a large enough of an issue
 that a
   customer would switch to another provider because of it? 
 Maybe, but
   probably not.The fact of the matter is that people who are
 outside your
   domain are not supposed to be troubleshooting stuff through
 your network,
   and you are certainly bear little if any responsibility in
 making sure that
   it is possible to do so.
   
Traceroute timeouts will originate from the physical
interface
the TTL expired on.  If this physical interface is numbered
 using 1918,
then it's possible these return traceroute packets will get
 filtered
somewhere
on the return path.
   
   Again, not to be overly combative, but so what?  Like I said,
 you as a
   provider don't really bear much responsibility for making sure
 that others
   outside your domain can troubleshoot through your network.   
 You certainly
   aren't responsible for making sure that everybody else in the
 whole world
   can do a successful traceroute through your network.

 I lost the enable secret password of my Cisco AS5300.I have the

 enable secret 5 $1$6YRM$nzNXQuv4h24C3AlB8N3rp.
 enable password 7 110A1016141D5A
 
One more point, since you have an 'enable secret' configured, the 'enable
password' serves no purpose.
When you type 'enable' to go to exec mode, it will only work with the
'enable secret' at the password prompt.
If a secret is configured, the enable password is never utilized.

You can safely remove the 'enable password'.

Good Luck!

I broke in to a Cisco 2600 router today, but I didn't have access to my

Instead of 0x2142 I put 0x2124.  Now when I hard bott the router it gives
me'JJJ^^' .
Now, I've never seen this before so I'm very confused as to what to do
next.  I can't really type anything either so it wont take commands that I
know.  What did I do?  How can I fix it?

Now, I can't:
-type commands after the J's finish appearing
-CTRL break does stop the J's, but nothing on the keyboard  works properly
so I can't type in any commands
-hard boot gives the same results everytime.(J's) and that's it
-I haven't let the router sit for a while after hard booting it to see if
maybe I was a little impatient by trying to type things in before it was done.
-I wont be able to work on the router again until Friday

No, what you'll likely need for most of your rack are a bunch or
CAB-ACU cables.
What you currently use are CAB-AC's.

Of course you could wait and just go to any used computer outlet when you
get there and pick up as many as you need cheap!  These router cables are
functionally the same as any PC power cable, and if you wait you can most
likely get a much better price as the pc/router end is the same no matter

RE: OSPF MTU [7:53047]

[Frank Merrill]

Priscilla Oppenheimer wrote:
 
 OSPF routers that don't agree on the MTU can get stuck in the
 EXSTART phase and never succesfully exchange their database
 description (DBD) packets, thus never becoming fully adjacent.

And I've actually seen this happen between a Cisco 6509 with a Flexwan and
A3 Port adapter at one end, and at the other end was a Nortel BCN router
with an ARE card.

This was tested in a lab and the team who was implementing it got it working
in the lab (it didn't work initially) by setting the 'mtu-ignore'. 
Unfortunately when it went to production the adjacency wouldn't come up
because now the DBD's were too large. It turned out that in the Lab the
adjacency came up because the initial descriptors were rather small, and
hence the DBD's fell at less than a full MTU size, and came up ok in the lab
once they told the Cisco to ignore the MTU mismatch.

Fixed this in production by looking at what the Cisco box recorded in it's
log that the mismatch size was, and set them appropriately. The Nortel box
actually sent something different than what it was actually set for, and so
that gave us a fit for a few minutes, until we saw what it was actually
sending in the Cisco log.
It's been in operation for over a year now.

Have fun,
Frank Merrill

 
 Neither router should have the MTU set to bigger than the
 maximum as specified by the relevant standards for the data
 link in use, but one of the routers could be set with an MTU
 that is smaller than the max allowed. This router might be
 unable to receive full-sized DBD packets from its neighbor.
 
 One fix is just to make sure the routers do agree on the MTU.
 But what if the other router is Brand X router and doesn't
 support such a change?
 
 In that case, you might want to use this new ip ospf
 mtu-ignore command.
 
 Here's what Cisco says:
 
 Cisco IOS ® Software Release 12.0(3) introduced interface MTU
 mismatch detection. This detection involves OSPF advertising
 the interface MTU in the DBD packets, which is in accordance
 with the OSPF RFC 2178, appendix G.9. When a router receives a
 DBD packet advertising a MTU larger than the router can
 receive, the router ignores the DBD packet and the neighbor
 state remains in exstart. This prevents an adjacency from
 forming. To fix this problem, make sure the MTU are the same on
 both ends of a link.
 
 In Cisco IOS Software 12.1(3), the interface-level ip ospf
 mtu-ignore command was introduced to turn off the MTU mismatch
 detection; however, this is only needed in rare instances.
 
 See this URL for the full story:

RE: how can i erase flash mem for a router which doesn [7:52677]

[Frank Merrill]

Well, isn't it likely that the problem is exactly what the error is telling
you?  You have 32MB memory.  The Max on a 1710 is 48MB.  Does that image
require 48?

Actually, I can't even find the 1710 in the upgrade planner. If I select a
1720 instead, and then change the URL to indicate a 1710 instead of a 1720,
it shows no images in the 12.2 trian, but the minimum version for a 1710 per
the compatability matrix is 12.2.

Strange!  Anyway, I think it's just a memory issue like the error says. 
Didn't yuou save a copy of the existing image before erasing the flash to
load the new image?

Good Luck!

RE: CAT6500 rebooting into boot mode [7:52654]

[Frank Merrill]

First, what is the config-register set to on that MSFC?
Is that why a reload is causing it to go to ROM monitor?
(should probably be 0x2102)
In other words, are these two seperate issues?
Is it returning to monitor any time it relaods. or just after this failure?

As far as the Nortel router causing an MSFC reload to begin with because of
an OSPF topology change...
Reconvergence shouldn't cause this, but...
Since you provided no version info, you might want to use the Bug Toolkit to
see if you can find an issue with OSPF causing reloads on your version of
code.
Also, does the MSFC indicate the reason for the reload when you do a 'show
ver'?
Is there a crashinfo file that the MSFC saved?  If so, it will likely show
the specific cause and you can research thast also.

Good Luck!

RE: flash copy failed checksum error [7:51834]

[Frank Merrill]

One other possibility (this happened to me recently as I'm buying equipment
for my lab) is that it doesn't really have 16MB of flash.
I had this happen (on a 2524 as a matter of fact!) when I received a router
that was listed as having 16MB flash and indeed reported 16MB.
The image on it when I received it was actually less than 8MB (which would
then only be on the first Flash stick, CODE 0 SIMM socket).  When I went to
put a new image on it (14-15MB) it complained as yours is.
It turns out that my second stick of flash was not 8MB, but instead 4MB
(even though the system thought it had 16 total).
I replaced that flash simm, and it's fine now.
The simplest way to tell is to take the cover off of the router, and look at
the 2 flash simms.  Both of them should have a number similar to:28F016.
If the second one (CODE 1 SIMM socket) has something like 28F008, then that
is a 4MB flash simm, not an 8MB one.

The simplest way I can remember what a flash SIMM size is is that you simply
halve the number on any given chip, and that is the size of your flash simm.
If your chips have the following number, the flash size is:
28F008 - 4MB
28F016 - 8MB

It may NOT be your problem, but worth a try if the previous image was less
than 8MB.

Good Luck!

However, if you hear a sound of breaking glass, and notice the valuables
being dragged into the panel van outside, aren't your responsibilities a
bit different?

   Just so we are clear, you *are* emailing Cisco every time an email is
posted to the list.  (Check my .sig if you need to be sure).  Several
Cisco employees are subscribed to the various groupstudy lists, mainly
for the same reason that you are: to learn about the Cisco product line
and routing/switching/security/certification in general.  However, if
something really stupid happens on the list, why shouldn't it be
referred to interested parties?

   The FrankenPIX situation was, in fact, referred to Cisco legal,
especially when they started popping up on eBay with alarming
regularity

And there's great logic coming from the new security professionals who
want to keep things secure on your network...  Sure, you can trust 'em,

I mean...  They're not doing anything REALLY illegal, because other
things cost too much.

You're trying to tell me that $35 is too expensive for you?  First,
it's a far cry from several hundred for other products.  However, the
bottom line is that if you REALLY use something, and you obviously find

value in it (otherwise you wouldn't be asking for it), then just buy
the damned thing.

Not only is it the right thing to do, but it keeps costs down for the
rest of us who put some value on the concept of security and legality
to begin with!

RE: Proper network design? [7:49536]

[Frank H]

Thanks for your explanation - I can understand my setup very clearly now. I
originally asked this question because I have not been exposed to that
situation before (I'm at the CCNA level). You are correct in saying that the
cellular box does routing for the 192.168.2.0 network. I was also incorrect
to call my setup a router on a stick as another person pointed out - it
looks similar though. The network drawing was correct. The Linux box that
was acting as a router in the original setup was replaced with the Cisco
router in order to correct the problem of only one 192.168.0.0 network host
being able to talk to cellular hosts on the 192.168.2.0 network. My setup is
exactly the same as the Chicago/San Francisco/New York situation you
described. I'm just curious as to why the Linux box could not be configured
to do the same job as the Cisco router (with the added static route). I'll
have to talk to our network guy to see if he can make the Linux box do the
same job so I can take my Cisco router back home.

Thanks to all for your help.

 Frank H wrote:
  
  Proper network design?
  
  I have a few questions for the group that maybe someone can
  answer. From my studies when I got CCNA certified, I
 understood
  that different networks were ALWAYS separated by a router. At
  my company we have this equipment that was purchased several
  months ago that acts as a digital cellular network. It was set
  up and was able to operate, but only in a limited way.
  Basically, this is the setup - the digital cellular network
 was
  on the 192.168.2.0 subnet (subnet mask 255.255.255.0). The
  company development LAN was on the 192.168.0.0 subnet (subnet
  mask 255.255.255.0). The two small networks (less than 10
 hosts
  in each subnet) were all tied together at a 24 port hub. The
  gateway to the Internet was through a Linux box. The digital
  cellular network was basically a box (with IP address
  192.168.0.100) that passed packets to network 192.168.2.0
  through a low power transmitter to the cellular hosts in the
  192.168.2.0 subnet. With this setup, only one desktop host on
  the 192.168.0.0 network could communicate to the 192.168.2.0
  cellular network (desktop host 192.168.0.20). The problem of
  only one desktop host in the 192.168.0.0 network being able to
  communicate with the 192.168.2.0 network was solved by
  replacing the Linux box with a Cisco 2514 router (with two
  ethernet interfaces). The configuration for the router was
  exactly the same as the Linux box except for one small
  addition. The following line was added as a static route:
  
  ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.100
  
  Now let me ask you, have you ever seen a router that gets a
  packet on one interface pass it right back out the SAME
  interface back to another host on that same network? 
 
 Sure, it happens all the time. There's nothing non-standard
 about this. It's quite normal for a router to receive a packet
 on an interface, look into its routing table, and determine
 that the packet needs to go back out the same interface it came
 in on.
 
 For example, let's say you have a LAN in Chicago that has two
 routers on it. One router has a WAN connection to San Francisco
 and the other router has a WAN connection to New York.
 
 Clients on the LAN in Chicago can only be configured with one
 default gateway. So, let's say that you tell them their default
 gateway is the router that goes to New York.
 
 When the clients send a pcket to San Francisco, the packet goes
 to the router that connects to New York. That router sends the
 packet back out the LAN to the router that goes to San
 Francisco. The router can send an ICMP Redirect to the end host
 saying essentially don't use me, use this other router. The
 host may or may not follow that advice.
 
 This is sometimes called the extra hop problem, although it's
 not really a problem.
 
 In your case, since the cellular box is a bit weird (only
 supports one host talking through it I think you said), you
 would probably want to disable ICMP Redirects.
 
 
 Our setup
  basically ties two DIFFERENT class C subnets together through
 a
  hub and the Cisco router makes it all work perfectly.
 
 A hub? Now that part is confusing. Are you referring to the
 cellular box, which sounds like a router to me. It's on two
 networks, 192.168.0.0 and 192.168.2.0. It's at least a device
 that can do forwarding based on Layer 3.
 
  This
  doesn't sound like standard network design as I've seen it
  described in any text so far. I'll describe it a little more
  for clarity. If i'm on a desktop PC (IP address 192.168.0.20)
  and ping IP address 192.168.2.2, windows will send that packet
  to the default gateway (configured as 192.168.0.1 in windows
  network applet - which is the Cisco router) since it lies in a
  different network (since the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0).
 The
  Cisco router receives this packet destined for the 192.168.2.0
  network

Re: Proper network design? [7:49536]

[Frank H]

Yes, I am using a 2514. It does have 2 10BaseT interfaces (through AUI
adapters). I am not using subinterfaces. Both ports are used - one port goes
to the Internet (for hosts that require Internet access) and the other
connects directly to the 24 port hub which resides within the internal LAN.
This internal LAN (network 192.168.0.0/24) can also communicate with network
192.168.2.0/24 (also connected on the hub) because the 2514 routes
192.168.2.0/24 traffic back to a cellular network host controller
(192.168.0.100/24). The 2514 is acting as a regular router for Internet
traffic and a router on a stick for 192.168.2.0/24 traffic. It was strange
for me at first, but now I get the picture.

RE: flash is read-only [7:49568]

[Frank H]

Copied directly from Cisco:

On these platforms, the Cisco IOS software image is actually running
directly from the Flash memory (flash in read-only mode). Therefore, you
cannot copy the Cisco IOS software image from the TFTP server to the Flash
if you are in user privileged EXEC mode (router#). You have to configure the
router or access server to boot into Rxboot mode (flash in read/write mode).

Here's the link:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/130/sw_upgrade_proc_flash.shtml

If you did a search for read-only you would find that this has also been
posted before.

The router on a stick effect comes from this:

ip route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.100

All traffic destined to any network not on 192.168.0.0 goes to the gateway
(192.168.0.1) on interface ethernet 1. The router then re-routes 192.168.2.0
traffic back on the 192.168.0.0 network to 192.168.0.100 (the router on a
stick effect).

Re: Boson CCIE tests [7:49121]

[Frank Alvandi]

Persio,

I used both Boson practice test #1 and # 3 to prapare and pass the exam on
Friday July 12th.

I smoked the exam with  869 which is not bad for the first attempt. I am
glad that I don't have to take the new ccie written exam and can concentrate
on the lab instead.

I found questions of practice test #1 to be well written, and the coverage
of exam topics was awesome. Credit must be given where credit is due. More
than the questions and answers that were right on the money, I felt that the
author really cared about me as the buyer of his test. On the same day that
I purchased the test, I received two or three e-mails from him that showed
me where to focus. He not only e-mailed Lou Rossi's excellent white paper on
Token Ring to me, he also guided me to his website where I could practice
with 150 more questions and answers for free. Also, he has developed a
freeware that I downloaded from his website to practice with all sorts of
topics, including RIF. BTW, if you want to practice with ISDN, BGP, VPN and
PIX firewall commands, this is an excellent tool.

I downloaded it from http://www.networkking.net and his ccie website is
http://www.networkking.net/ccie
I hope the author does not mind the public using his tools. 

Practice test #3 was also good, but the variety was not as good as #1. I had
over 100 questions on RIF only .
Come on, decyphering two bytes of RIF does not take 100 questions and ansers
to practice with.

just my 2 cents

There is no logical reason not to put it there as it shows additional

this topic was discussed but don't remember the particulars (I was not a

RE: Strange 6500/IPX Issue!! HELP!! [7:47951]

[Frank Merrill]

Did you enable portfast or use the 'host' macro to set the user ports on
this switch?  I have seen this, but it was in a situation where the user
machines had there IPX frame type set to auto.  In that case the users
machine would boot up, try and autodetect the IPX frame type in use on the
segment, but since the interface wasn't forwarding yet, he wouldn't see any
IPX frames, and hence it would default to a frame type other than what was
actually being used on the network.
These machiones also had the classic DHCP problems for the same reason.
But, since you have hardcoded the IPX frame type, I'd suspect that maybe he
does his GNS, and if the port isn't forwarding, he just doesn't get a
response, and on a Windows95 machine, it will then go to a secondary login
(if there is one) or just go straight to the desktop.  If IP isn't a
problem, are they using static IP addresses?

Good Luck!

RE: Unknown Error [7:47822]

[Frank Merrill]

 I got this message from my Cisco 3662 fastethernet interface , :
 %AMDP2_FE-5-LATECOLL: FastEthernet0/1 transmit error
 

From the System Error Messages guide:

Error Message 

%AMDP2_FE-5-LATECOLL: [chars], transmit error 
Explanation   Late collisions have occurred on the Ethernet or Fast Ethernet
interface. When a collision is detected by a station after it has sent the
512th bit of its frame, it is counted as a late collision.

Recommended Action   If the interface is a Fast Ethernet interface, verify
that both peers are in the same duplex mode. For regular Ethernet, the
system should recover. No action is required.

351-001 Beta Written Exam [7:47770]

[Frank Merrill]

Where is everyone who mentioned taking the Beta written a while back?
Did you all get your pass/fail from Cisco/Prometric yet?

I took it, and I realized afterward (duh!) that the test was almost entirely
on the new subject material, none of which I did any study for.
It makes sense, as why would they bother testing for the topics they already
test for?  They know if those questions are valid or not due to the time
they've been in 'production'.

The actual pass on this test turned out to be a lowly 45%.

Since I am scheduled for the current version of the written at Networkers in
Orlando, I did this Beta on a whim.
I didn't pass (I didn't expect to as I was taking it as it was a bear!).

I only got a 42%.  If I had actually studied just a little of the new
materials, I'm sure I would have passed with 45% being the pass score.


Good Luck!

My guess is no later than the middle of August based on previous Cisco
Beta-to-production life cycles.  However, anything is possible.
The Beta test itself ended on May 6, and the results from that are just
coming in about now.

The Beta was a 'brutal' exam so to speak.  The current written is relatively
easy compared to the Beta questions.

I would guess they will have the new questions on the test very soon.

Good Luck!

RE: CCIE Beta results [7:47144]

[Frank Merrill]

I did call Prometric a while back, and yes, they did indicate a passing
score, but then I asked the CCIE team to verify the validity of that
information, and they clearly said that the results had not been fully
analyzed, and that the pass/fail cut had not yet been determined.  (That was
about 2 weeks ago I think).

So, if you called Prometric, did they really give you correct info, or are
they just still making the mistake of giving out information that's not
correct?

I agree that this Beta was a bit tough, and that the current 350-001 is a
walk in the park comparatively speaking.

Good Luck!

RE: VLANs and SNMP [7:47104]

[Frank Merrill]

Are you mixing apples and oranges here?

On one hand you mention determining if VLANs are configured in cisco box. 
But it would appear that you are looking at trying to determine if there are
VLANs existing on the Switch.

On the other hand, it would appear that you are querying the MSFC, and that
will instead give you what you are seeing, the VLAN routing interfaces.

So, what are you trying to determine, what VLANs exist on the switch, or
what VLAN routing interfaces exist on the router?

They are not the same thing here.

To be honest I don't have the answer, just trying to help clarify what it is
you are looking to find out.

Good Luck!

 I understand the bit significance for the 16-bit confreg, but I
 am confused about the SEQUENCE of the boot and the issue with
 netboot.  Assume confreg 0x2102, what is the correct boot
 sequence?  Where does the flash overide (0x2-0xF) come into
 play i.e. does it replace the need to boot from the network
 or simply step in line before the attempt to netboot?
 

You called it 'flash overide' but I'm not certain why.
This isn't an override of booting via netboot necessarily, but it can be. 
It may be used to specify the exact name of the image to boot via netboot or
any other means the router can boot by.

When the config register boot field has a value between 0x2 and 0xF then the
router will, by defualt, try and do a netboot and constructing a name of
'cisco' the octal equiv of the boot field value, a dash and then the
processor type.
If it's a 2500 it'd be cisco4-igs for a boot register value of 0x4.

If you in addition have a boot command that specifies a netboot filename,
then that will be used instead.  For example, if you had this in your config:
'boot system ftp myimage.bin 10.0.0.100'
It would try the netboot using that name, via FTP and to that host address. 
It would not construct the name as indicated above because you have
specified it.

If you instead want to boot from flash, it will also not construct the
netboot filename automatically because once again, you have specified your
boot location and it will attempt to load the image from there.

I'm not certain that that answered anything at all for you

Good Luck!

  Yes, they do want to do it, and will retire the 3524-PWR as
 soon as they
 can.
 
 Uh if they DO want to do it (have switches with inline
 power), then why
 would they want to retire the 3524-PWR?!?!?!  ( I know there's
 the
 4000/6000s but I doubt you'll see someone putting a 4000 switch

What I meant was they will continue to offer it and when they can they will
do so on the 3550 series, and go ahead and retire the 3524-PWR.

 
 What difference does it make which box?  Don't get me wrong, I
 can use IOS
 and CatOS both no problem.  But I also don't think it's right
 to have some
 people show up to the lab and not know exactly what equipment
 to expect

I still think that's not as relevant as your making it out to be.
It's just an exam. I think it would be even better if they mixed it up a bit
and you didn't have a clue what equipment was going to be there.  Since they
are attempting to certify those who are taking the exam as 'experts' then it
shouldn't be a problem for an 'expert'.

Right now a candidate should be aware that if they have a lab date in that
range then they should expect either switch.

 through before study guides and bootcamps).  Personally, I wish
 they would
 stop shipping 6x00s with CatOS and just go forward with Native
 IOS.  I mean,
 the CatOS is ancient, and it's about time Cisco unified the
 user interface
 and commands.

IOS is also ancient.  It's been around as long or longer than CatOS.
I actually prefer the CatOS for switching configuration.  I prefer having
the hybrid solution in place and I think those developing CatOS have done a
fine job with it.  I think maybe Cisco should reconsider the 'IOS on
everything' mindset.  Not everything in the world needs to run the same OS
'just because'.  Cisco has not done that good of a job making the
functionality and ease of use with IOS on a Catalyst that they have with
CatOS.

The T1 was originally developed by ATT in 1957 or 58.  It was later adopted

The CCITT (Now ITU) standardized the CEPT E1 for most of the world at (I

I'd guess you could say that we didn't use it, because we already had a

It would appear that the changes to the Lab have been clarified and updated,

until Nov 4th now:

Lab Exam Content and Equipment Changes 

CCIE Candidates should note the following changes to the technical content
and equipment for the CCIE Lab exam. The content changes affect the CCIE
Routing and Switching Lab exam, while the equipment changes affect all CCIE
certification tracks.

The CCIE program continually monitors the topics and technologies covered in
the CCIE certification tracks. The end result of this process is that a
topic may be removed from the exam to allow greater emphasis on features or
technologies that are more current in the industry.

Therefore, effective November 4th, 2002, the following topics will no longer
be tested on the CCIE Routing and Switching exam:

IGRP
Token Ring
Token Ring Switching
IPX

Please note that DLSw+ will remain as a valid topic on the exam. 

Between September 1, 2002 and November 4th, 2002 all CCIE labs will replace
the current Catalyst 5000 switches with Catalyst 3550 switches. However, the
only switching features tested during this time will be those common to both
devices - additional features on the Catalyst 3550 will only be tested after
November 4th, 2002.

Please note that except for the change in switches, no new topics are being
added to the content covered by the Routing and Switching exam. However,
many features currently tested will now be able to receive more weight on
the exam after November 4th.

Right, and until they do, the 3524-PWR-XL is still for sale, unlike the

 features tested during this time will be those common to both
 devices -
 additional features on the Catalyst 3550 will only be tested 
 after November
 4th, 2002.  What are they referring to?  It's still going to
 suck for those
 people because they may or may not end up in a lab with a 5000
 (CatOS) or a
 3550 (IOS).   Am I off base here?

I think so.  It's just a box.  What diffence does it make what type it is.
If they are going to certify people as 'expert' in internetworking, then
what difference does the type of router or switch make?  It's just a box
that does layer 2 and layer 3 functions.  If you are attempting the lab, you
should be able to handle it, and I'm sure you can.

Good Luck!

  There's nothing wrong with knowing the IOS based switches
 just on
 principal,
  as one probably installs more of them in a job then the
 6500's.  The only
  problem left with the new switches is no in-line power until
 next year
 when
  802.3af is ratified.

You don't have to convert to do that. I'm doing that right now between to
6509s with two Sups and two MSFC2s per box.  With this each VLAN has four
router interfaces that it can use if needed.  I round robin the HSRP so the
load is somewhat distributed between the four of them.  It's redundant as
hell, and in the few cases where there has been a failure of one of the
MSFCs or a Supervisor (a bug in both cases) no-one was even aware that
anything had happened since everything kept chugging merrily along with the
HSRP and High-Availability on the Sups.

Of course our monitoring group was caught with thier pants down as they
didn't detect the reloads that happened when they should have!

Good Luck

RE: 3COM XRN Switch Vs CAT6500 ( or CAT4000) [7:46581]

[Frank Merrill]

 We are in the process of upgrading our Network infrastructure,
 which has CISCO routers and CAT5500 switches. During our
 preliminary evaluation, we are considering also 3COM XRN
 switches instead of CAT6500 or CAT4000. Has anyone experience
 with 3COM XRN switches? If so  please let met know the pros and
 cons of 3COM XRN compare to CAT6500 or CAT4000 switches.
 
 Thanks for your objective input.

I have no knowledge of the 3Com XRNs and this may not be objective, but
after what 3Com did to many Enterprises a few years back when they bailed on
thier Enterprise line, I wouldn't go near a 3Com switch again.

The company I was with at the time made a technology review decision to go
with Cisco (3Com was the runner up), and within less than 2 months 3Com had
given up entirely on the Enterprise market.  If we had decided the other
way, we would have been in the same predicament that many others found
themselves in.

Turns out we made the right decision, but they left to many companies
hanging in my opinion.

Good Luck.

 Okay folks, starting off a late night studying and noticed
 something
 weird.  Got two boxes connected like so RouterA---RouterB
 
 Router B has a bunch of segments off of it.  Something weird.
 Per some
 of the material I have, the key chain names are supposed to be
 the same
 but I've found that on routerA I can use the name test and
 router B I
 can use the name test2 and it'll work (i.e Routes get passed
 properly)

Aren't the key chain names just a 'label' on the local router.  basically a
description to use to identify one or more keys which are identified by a
number and which themselves need to have a key-string associated with them
for the actual authentication?

But, since the 'label' isn't sent, it shouldn't make any difference what the
name is.  I think the problem with the space is just a problem with IOS
processing that space correctly and not really relevant, but it'll be
interesting to see what you find out.

Your not losing your mind, but your comparing two chain names that I don't
believe need to be compared or be the same.

Take it for what it's worth!

 
 Router A
 
 key chain test
  key 1
key-string cisco
 
 ip rip authentication key test
 
 Router B
  key chain test2
   key 1
   key-string cisco
 
 ip rip authentication test2
 
 But if on routerB, I change the key-chain name to test . (yes
 there is
 a space at the end) and apply the appropriate ip rip
 authentication
 test  into the interface then the router spits back about it
 not liking
 the authentication (invalid authentication)
 
 Am I loosing my mind.  test and test12345 are the same but
 test
 and test  are different?   I know that in BGP, you can apply
 multiple
 route-maps and if you leave a space at the end, the router
 things there
 is another route-map your calling and therefor may not make it
 through.
 
 Thanks all!

Well... as it only ran for three weeks total between April 15 and May 6 it's
just barely two months right now since the start of the Beta.

I got an email from the CCIE program today letting me know that the
information that Pormetric is giving out concerning Pass/Fail is not
accurate as the results have not been analyzed yet, and the 'cut' has not

Well They do if you spend an awful lot of money with them.

Due to the economy, they aren't giving away as many freebies as I would have

If you are going to be doing that LAB after Oct 1, then heed the news that
Cisco has posted and don't bother with the TR as it will be gone from the
LAB altogether.  And so will the Cat5000 that you have.
Instead sell the Catalyst and with the money you would've spent on the TR
routers, and the money from the Catalyst 5K, buy a 3550 switch (which will
be in the LAB after Oct 1), and maybe tyhe ISDN and a router to use as a
Frame Switch like you mentioned.

Take it for what it's worth.  If you are going to do your LAB before then,
then justy continue on

Good Luck!

RE: BGP MED Question [7:46321]

[Frank Merrill]

Sounds as if it's getting to the 'first path received when multiple paths
are the same' part of the multiple path selection process.

IS the path from R1 the first received?  If so, have the one from R3 come up
first and see if it then selects that one.  If so, then that is the case. If
so, then the MED selection process isn't working for some reason, or...

Does the MED for the path via R1 actually show as being 4,294,967,294?

Good Luck!

RE: Amazing!! Passed the beta [7:45920]

[Frank Merrill]

Unfortunately, based on the fact that everyone (including myself) that has
called has been told that they passed, and also based on the fact that they
apparently put P's into the pass/fail field when the scoring isn't automatic
(Since it's a Beta, cisco scores it manually), I'm not as excited as I was
earlier today when they told me I passed.

To be quite honest, I'd be surprised if I had actually passed.  I'm certain
I can take care of the current 250-001 without any great effort, but this
thing was a bear!

Good Luck, and hopefully you really did pass!

RE: 640-605 BCRAN Beta PASSED!! [7:45777]

[Frank Merrill]

  
 I was wondering if anyone could tell me if this will count
 toward the
 existing CCNP track if my other exams are the current standard
 (640-50x) in
 which case I'M DONE!!!

Betas do indeed count, and if so, then you should be able to log into the
tracking syustem and see that you are indeed done.
Congratulations!

 Finally, if I am in fact done, can anyone tell me if it's more
 advantageous
 to go after CCDA/P or just chase the CCIE written (before the
 new version of
 that exam is introduced).

Advantage can be a relative thing, and it's something that you should
probably determine on your own in respect to what you want to do with your
career.

I think following any training/certification track, if done with the intent
of increasing ones knowledge, is a beneficial thing if you truly increase
your knowledge level.
Don't do it for the paper, do it for the knowledge you'll have and the
abilities you'll obtain from learning.

Good Luck!

 BRI0: Already 255 call(s) in progress on BRI0, dialing not

 I have never seen this msg before. Anyone know what this means?
 Is there a loop somewhere?

I would guess that you have EIGRP running seeing as that is the multicast
address for EIGRP (or is that IGRP??!!)

The number of calls IN PROGRESS for the interface is set to a maximum of
255, and hence you've reached that number.
You need to filter or do the appropriate control to stop EIGRP from bringing
up that dialer interface!
You might want to start here:

I just wanted to mention how funny I thought the Sample Lab was.
It's not the lab itself, but the comment that the equipment requirement will
be 'light'.

It's amazing to me that you consider 7 routers to be a 'light' requirement
as many with home labs don't have more than 5 or 6 since you really
shouldn't need any more than that to practice for the Practical Lab anyway.
(along with the additional ISDN simulator or switch etc...)

Good Luck!

 ethernet0 of 2500 router. See below..  there is no speed and

 unlike IOS switch fasthernet switch.

That interface is a 10Mbs/Half-Duplex interface.  You can't set it to
anything else.  The speed and duplex are fixed.
