Can you post your configurations for this?  What area is R5 in?  Why are you
skipping over R5 as the end of the virtual-link?

 Hi group ,

 I have been working on a backup solution with isdn and the primary is a
 frame link
 I am running on an  2500 with 12.1(18) and a 2500 with 12.(18)

 Thi is my net.

 R6-R1==R5--R4R2-

 R6r4

  is frame-relay net

 == is isdn link

 Area 0 is R6 to R1,
 Area 1 is from r6down to r4
 Area 2 is from R4 and to R2

 My primary virtual link is from R6 to R4
 My backup primary is from R1 to R4

 What happens her is that the backup virtual link wont come up over the
isdn
 link.
 I have tested this both with and without demand circuit, dialer watch and
 without any of them.

 My config is correct and my authentication is correct. I have also tested
 this without authentication.

 The strange thing is that this has happen to me on two different rack. I
 have had several people go
 Over this, but they cant find any thing wrong

 Is there anywon hwo knows if there is an bug in this software with regards
 to this.??

Re: Console port now working on 4000 [7:74489]

2003-08-30 Thread William Lijewski
Does it display anything when you powercycle the router?  Does it display
the bootup information and then freeze?

If it displays the bootup information and then freezes you may have
accidentally put 'no exec' under the console port.  You would need to break
into the router, just like you would if you were resetting the password.

Re: ISDN connect/disconnect issue [7:71845]

2003-07-03 Thread William Lijewski
Usually when it goes up and down that fast its an authentication problem.
Try the 'debug ppp authentication' command on your router and post the
output.  You should see 2 challenges, 2 responses, and 2 successes.  If you
don't see those then you have an issue with your usernames and/or passwords.

RE: OT-Netscreen 5xp VPN very slow [7:62461]

2003-02-05 Thread William
Well, having worked with the Netscreen Firewall products, I find it
interesting that you feel its your bottle neck.  Take a look at the
architecture you've outlined:

PC---NetScreen---Cable Modem VPN Gateway (what type of gateyway is
this?)Internet.

The short answer here is that anytime you add security devices to a traffic
flow especially when cipher-decipher takes place, you'll take a performance
hit.  That's the price we pay (though things are improving dramatically!)
for privacy.  NetScreens traditionally are quite fast devices and though the
5X is a smaller appliance its still quite good.

Hi,

Did you check the NS-5XP log?
Also, if you place your PC behind the NS and access internet, what's the
path of your traffic? Simply PC- FW- cable modem- Internet OR
PC- FW( VPN gateway ) - cable modem - VPN gateway - Internet?

BUT you mentioned 3DES, if NS is just using as a Firewall, encryption (3DES
and VPN) should not cause your problem.

RE: NAT and VoIP [7:62053]

You may indeed experience issues with NAT and VoIP.  You will have to
revisit your NAT pool and review the address schema for your IP telephony
end points and most likely adjust your pools accordingly.  This will also,
depending on the size of the deployment and enterprise, probably cause you
to have to review your DHCP scope(s) as well.

 Sorry, no Logix experience that I can remember.  There really
 are two distinct types of WAN test equipment.  For intrusively
 troubleshooting circuits any one of many Bit Error Rate test
 sets are usually employed.  What used to be TTC (now Acterna)
 is responsible for the famous Fireberd series and also the
 T-Berd series.  These are great products (I prefer the Fireberd
 in most cases for digital stuff but the T-Berd 310 has several
 optical options for SONET, PoS, etc).  These also can monitor
 non-intrusively in many cases.  As for v.35, there probably
 isn't much you could do for in-service monitoring. 

ThatCb,bs true in the case of the Fireberd and the T-Berd, which are
primarily
used for intrusive testing (in my experience).  They donCb,bt drill
down (up?)
any further than the L2 frame and don't look at all into the payload.  In
the case of the below-mentioned Agilent Advisor, which is primarily used for
in-service monitoring (in my experience), you can look much further up the
protocol stack.  I use it for HDLC decodes, for example, where HDLC might be
carrying any number of upper-layer data (and sometimes man-readable ASCII
text), which can be furhter decoded.  It doesnCb,bt much matter whether
or not
itCb,bs v.35, TIA/EIA-232 or 422, whatever (as long as you have the
appropriate
interface module).

In the
 T-Carrier and Frame Relay world, the test set can lock to the
 frame, verify the FCS, etc.  I've also used the Agilent Advisor
 (formerly the HP Internet Advisor) quite a bit, which is a
 Windows-based test set for both LANs and WANs.  It seems
 primarily geared towards sniffing or in-service stuff but can
 serve as an intrusive test set as well.  None of these that
 I've mentioned are cheap, to say the least.

RE: Loading IOS / OT Now [7:61413]

2003-01-21 Thread William Pearch
The BayRS does have some very cool features.
 
My favorite was the modularity of the software - if you didn't want a
feature you built your software package without it.  The only way you wound
up with a bloated OS was if you either needed all the bling blings or if it
was loaded by someone that didn't know what they wanted.  With Cisco IOS, if
I want Frame Relay SVC's on a 3640 I have to get a bloated 'Enterprise' IOS
load that has more knobs then I'll ever use!
 
The biggest problem(s) with the Bay/Wellfleet routers?  There was that baby
poop brown color... Lack of marketing skills... Not enough blinkie
lights...  a terrible web page... fairly shallow product lineup... and they
weren't percieved as a leader in the market, but a follower.  When Bay
bought the Accellar I thought they were on to something and then Nortel
happened.  That's not a bad or a good thing - just change.  Never
underestimate the importance of blinking lights.

Not necessarily Scott.  You've got to be able to prove (in others words have
documentable proof), that you've worked for a cumulative total of 4 years in
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.

OSPF area command with advertise option [7:60550]

2003-01-07 Thread William Li
Hi group

 

   I just happened to find there is an advertise option could be added
in area area-id range ip-address mask command. The command could be
like this area area-id range ip-address mask advertise.  My question
is, will there be any functional difference between with and without
this option. As per DOC CD, option advertise means: Sets the address
range status to advertise and generates a Type 3 summary link-state
advertisement (LSA). But by default, when we generate a summary address
in ABR without any options, the summary address will be advertised
automatically, am I right? 

 

Thanks

 

William

  If you only have hosts connected to the switch (not L2
  devices),
  enable port-fast on the host ports.   This eliminates the
  spanning tree states on the port and thus the port begins
  forwarding packets with a few seconds of the link coming online.
  This might be the problem if static IPs are assigned to the
  hosts.  If DHCP is being used and DHCP is working, I'd expect
  it is not a problem with the port and spanning tree.
 
  One other possible gotcha is regarding routing and the VLAN
  interface.
  If no devices are active on the VLAN, the router might consider
  the
  VLAN subnet down and withdraw the route from its
  advertisements.

RE: 7200 Router Questions... [7:59645]

2002-12-23 Thread William Pearch
In order to hit performance marks that are excellent with IPSec you will
need not only a spiffy NPE but the PA-VAM or PA-ISA.  Be aware that the
PA-VAM may not work with the latest and greatest IPSec image.  I picked
up a 7206VXR VPN bundle from Cisco last month and the only IOS supported
was 12.1(9)E.  This may have changed with 12.2(13)T - do your homework
and test it.
With the VAM and the NPE-400 Cisco claims ~150Mbps throughput.  Be sure
to top it off with memory - if you are running lots of tunnels you will
need the space.  I haven't tested the performance myself and do not know
how the split bus of the 7200's will affect performance of one PA or
another depending on where it's plugged in.  Not all my questions have
been answered...
The VPN bundle lists for $23,500 - apply your discount.  That gives you
fastethernet interfaces(2), the PA-VAM, and the NPE-400.  You'll have to
pay for more  If you can use a newer IOS version (come ON Cisco...)
you can run the easy VPN server on the box and make life so much easier.
The 12.1 code does a good job of working with x.509 certs, but there is
a lot of command change between 12.1(9) and 12.2(13)T, so watch your
configurations carefully and be prepared to rewrite things between
versions.
The PA-ISA does run with a piece of 12.2 code (I have a client using it)
and does just fine.  In the case of both accellerators there is no AES
support that I am aware of.  If you are looking for AES, the software
crypto engine is supposed to support it in 12.2(13)T on some(all?)
platforms and I've heard that there's a new crypto hardware piece in the
works to support it also.

Just a thought:  Depending on your application, you may consider buying
two smaller VPN enabled routers (3600 or 2600) and using multiple
tunnels frome each site to the hub for layer 3 based load balancing and
fault tolerance.  They are routers, make 'em route!  (Or heck, just buy
2 7206 bundles... :)  You may get performance every bit as good, with
availability numbers that make you look like an uber-star to the boss.

Bill Pearch, Anchorage

 I can't decide which processor I need.

 The primary differance is the NSE is it is only supported in the 
7200VXR and incorporates the PXF processor for accelerated packet
switching.

 3.  What's the difference between the VXR models and the normal
 models?

   To get VXR performance you must use at least a NPE300 and you get a 
MIX backplane, good for voice stuff.  Also the VXR gives you increased 
backplane bandwidth capabilities.

   With the new NPE-1G you no longer have any bandwidth point
limitations!

It sounds like DSL has a low mean time between failure (MTBF) but a high
mean time to repair (MTTR), which can be just as bad, especially if it's
your only backup. Of course, your mileage may vary (YMMV), depending on
the
service provider. Also, a service level agreement (SLA) would help, as

RE: rate-limit question [7:58423]

2002-12-03 Thread William Lijewski
Well its actually a config at work that our ISP put on the router.  It is:

rate-limit 16000 8000 8000 conform-action set-prec-transmit 2

This is on our 256k link and we are having complaints that the line has
performance issues.  What I get out of this line is that anything in the 1st
24k or bandwidth is going to have the precedence set to 2, but what I really
need to know is if the rest of the traffic above the 24k is getting dropped?

There are a lot of TCP retransmissions on the line which leads me to believe
that the packets are getting dropped... I really need to know what happens
without that exceed-action command.

And as a side question, why would the ISP put this line in?

  Can it participate in an MPLS network?

It probably will be able to someday.  Give it about 10-20 years or so.

  Does it support IP GRE, 802.1p, .q, DiffServ ?

It will pass IEEE 802.1Q tagged frames.  It cannot terminate or
participate in negotiation of an IEEE 802.1Q or Cisco ISL trunk.  So,
no, not really. That stuff can pass through it, but it won't terminate
or negotiate them. Make sense?

Not a SONET transport engineer, and I don't play one on TV:

The best way that I've found to describe the ONS platform is to call it
a fairly smart but dumb L2 device.  It's not a switch really.  It can't
really do trunking 'n such, but it does allow you to pass the tags
through.  It's not a router, so it isn't going to do GRE, DiffServe,
routing, or act as an MPLS PE or P device.  It's just a big freekin go
fast box for moving voice and data.  That's it.  No L3, basic L2.  If
you want it to participate in an MPLS network, it will most likely be
just the 'last mile' between your PE and the CPE.  At 10Gig that's a
fast mile.
If you want something SONET and slightly smarter, look at the Coriolis
boxes.  Not a lot smarter, mind you...  This stuff is generally designed
to be big and dumb, reliable as all, and faster 'n snot.
If you have access to PEC as a Cisco Partner, there is an excellent web
based training session on the ONS15454 that will walk you through some
of the basics, and point you in the direction of the rest.

You need to use the channel-group command to create the serial
interface, it doesn't do this automatically.  Here is an example from
one that I have
done:
controller T1 2/1
  framing esf
  clock source internal
  linecode b8zs
  cablelength short 133
  channel-group 0 timeslots 1-24 speed 64

In this case, the channel-group command creates a serial 2/1:0
interface that can then be given an IP address and used accordingly.

Has any one configured a Data T1 on the following card (VWIC 2MFT-T1)?
This is very different from what I've seen in the past...

I've been looking on CCO for data configuration, but haven't found
anything. They say it's possible.

Xyplex Terminal Server to Cisco Console port .... HOW? [7:52551]

2002-09-02 Thread William D. Mohat

I am trying to connect a Xyplex 1620 terminal server
to the Console port on a number of Cisco routers.I have
it running (sort of)  but I lose a few characters under heavy
load.   This is odd, since 9600 baud is hardly heavy
compared to the Xyplex's capacity of 115K per port...

   Hardware handshaking would help. BUT ... the
Xyplex doesn't use DTR/DSR pins, and the Cisco Console
ports don't have RTS / CTS connected.   So  hardware
handshaking is out.

   Is there some configuration options that will keep this
setup from losing data?   Has anyone used a Xyplex with
Cisco console ports successfully?

Do you have a SMARTnet contract for that 1710?  Are you within the

a moment to check it out:

After flipping through that presentation, are you still within the valid

about the feelings you are having regarding their service.

If after going through those slides you realize you are outside your

When I was learning a bit about SAN's and Fibre Channel, one of my

(couple years ago, may have changed by now).  I have put GBICs (no long
haul stuff) obtained from Nortel, IBM, Compaq, Brocade, Cisco, and
unknown into a 3500, a 2950, a Nortel 420, Dell and a couple others
just to see if they would work.  They did.  Fibre Channel GBICs, GigE
GBICs, all seemed to work just fine.  I'll try it in a 3550 later this
month, and it will probably seem to work just fine also.

I took a bit of a risk, and purchased some GBIC;s off That Auction Site.
Of the four, three are Cisco branded, and the fourth is labeled
Agilent ( used to be HP )

I had done a bit of investigation prior to purchase. I see that the
Auction Site has listings for Agilent, IBM, and Extreme GBIC's, as well
as Cisco. However, I was unable to find any direct and clearly stated
indication that all GBIC's are interchangeable.

IBM and Agilent GBIC's cost few pretty pennies less than Cisco BTW,
although I suspect now that the same source OEM's for all these
manufacturers.

So I paid my money, took my chance, and have an Agilent GBIC on one
switch connected to a Cisco GBIC on another. No connectivity problems.
Came right up. Is passing traffic even as I write.

Thinking logically, why should GBIC's be any different that NIC's or
patch cables, transceivers of various sorts and brands, or CSU/DSU's?
They are all build to industry specifications and industry standards.
They all do the same thing.

Just thought I'd pass that along to those trying to stretch their

RE: polycom Video Unit [7:49882]

2002-07-28 Thread William Pearch

The Polycom Viewstations and Via-Video units use unicast UDP (RTP)
traffic for data streams and unicast TCP(RTCP) traffic for signaling and
control.  

Part of the initialization process is an agreement on what codec's are
going to be used.  This negotiation process is different depending on if
there is a gatekeeper involved in the conversation.  The important thing
to remember about a 323 MCU is that it is essentially a h.323 terminal.
Any I-frames or K-frames that happen between a terminal and the MCU are
between the terminal and the MCU - not between participants in the
conference.  There is an initialization process between each endpoint
and the MCU that would handle things like data rate and terminal
capabilities.

I would refer you to a handful of whitepapers available on polycom's web
site, especially the ones from PictureTel.
http://www.polycom.com/resource_center/0,1408,997,00.html  The old
pictureTel whitepapers are much better written and easier to use than
anything else I've found on h.323 so far.

There is another excellent resource on the web/mail-list; the h323
forum.  I don't recall the web site right now, do a google search I'm
sure you will hit.

 I suppose it depends on the unit but ours mainly use unicast to the 
 Cisco MCU.  As far as I know they use standard H.323.  The downside if

 you're using an MCU is that the PolyComm units have a lot of different

 codecs available that might not be known by the MCU.  For example, the

 Cisco MCU can only do G.711 audio, but if you let two video units 
 speak directly to each other they use G.726 ( I think.  Maybe it's 
 G.722?) and it sounds
much
 better.

That brings up an interesting question tho unless the MCU is
converting between codecs for end stations that might want to use
different codecs, must the MCU understand the codec or would it simply
act as a relay startion for that data.  (i.e. if two end-stations
are using a codec that they understand but the MCU doesn't, would it be
a problem since the MCU would merely forward the unknown (to it) audio
data to the other end station).

The Cisco MCU supports many more codecs than G.711 including the popular
G.729 codec (which gives roughly G.711 quality with an 8:1 compression).
The G.722 (you were right.. it's G.722, not G.726) that covers from
50-6900Hz instead of 50-3900Hz as most narrowband codecs do.  So if
you're trying to play more high fidelity sound, you may want to use
that.  I haven't seen many units that support this codec though (but I
have by no means seen tons of units, just a few).  However, if the audio
you're trasmitting is human speech, the G.722 isn't going to gain you
much in terms of sound quality since it would be preserving an
additional frequency range that's not used alot by human speech.

Does anyone have any input or experience with how and/or when the MCU
codec support comes into play?  I would think that if the endpoints are
at the same datarate and using the same audio/video codecs, the MCU
would just be a bounce point and the actual codecs in the MCU wouldn't
be utilized  Just a theory tho..

up with the GigE either.  You can get better performance with a *nix
box, but if it's Intel based, it will still (sweeping generality here)
suffer throughput issues.
A few notes from some GigE Windows work I've done in the past.

Try to move big files rather than lots of little ones.
Go for Jumbo Frames.
TCP Window size is tuneable in W2K.  Tune it.
More Memory.  On a Compaq DL380 I saw best performance/$ at about the
2GB RAM mark.  3GB of RAM was better, but only a skosh.
Lots of cache, and LOTS of hard drives.  It is better to have 20 18Gig
drives than 10 36 Gig drives for SPEED.  Spindles mean things.  It may
be a good time to think fibre channel.
64/66 minimum for your RAID controllers.  PCI-X is even better.  Don't
bother with the built in RAID controllers in most servers - they are
fairly lame.
Pay attention to your cables.  Bad fiber installs or so so copper will
kill your performance.

Sit back and enjoy the blinkie lights.

We have a very similar setup with Cat 6000, Cat 4000, and Cat 3000's.  
We determined that 100MP to the desktop would suffice any current

 From the application standpoint, this is a sort-of it depends.  Let 
me throw out some off-the-top-of-my-head examples.

A digitized mammogram series is about 250 MBytes, or 2 Gbits. It 
contains several views, so the physician doesn't need it all at once. 
If the workstation has a fast local disk, you should be able to 
retrieve the set in about 20 seconds on FE.  The image server may 
very well be the bottleneck.  Once you have the set, flipping from 
image to image is a workstation limitation.

But if you were going to do high-resolution imagery with motion 
(movie special effects, real-time cardiac MRI, etc.), you have to 
deliver frames fast enough to have smooth motion.  Now, the physician 
is not apt to decide he or she is going to study the imagery with no 
warning, so scheduling an upload isn't all that unreasonable.  If you 
did want RIGHT NOW full motion imagery, you very well might want GB 
or even faster to the workstation.  That's going to mean a pretty 
powerful workstation!

RE: Cisco Video Conferencing [7:48646]

2002-07-11 Thread William Pearch

If you are referring to the Cisco branded MCUs and h.323 Gatekeepers,
yes - I use them.  You can save a bit of cash in some cases by turning
to the vendor of the hardware (Radvision) but the support for these
products from Cisco has been first rate.  The written documentation is a
little slight on CCO, but generally useable.  There are better and
cheaper h.323 Gatekeepers than the Cisco IOS MCM - free323 comes to mind
- and there is a h.323 proxy in beta that is also freeware.
Scheduling software and billing software for the VTC 'stuff' is spendy.
I believe one of our business units is looking seriously at Todd
software for billing and scheduling so I should have a better grasp on
how that is done in a month or two.
To the individual products;
The Cisco 3510 is fairly lame - so of course I have two of them in my
network... :)  A fixed config box that can handle up to about 4Mb of VTC
traffic.  It is stackable for aggregate horsepower, but there are
cheaper ways to get the 'umph' you need than buying a bunch of 1U MCUs.
The Cisco 3540 is a killer box that is scaleable and priced accordingly.
It supports T.120 and can bridge (gateway, actually) to h.320 networks
as well.  If I were going to spend my money again, I'd get this box (or
the RadVision original).
One of the interesting thing about these boxes is that there really
isn't a command line, exactly.  You use the console port once - to set
an IP address.  After that, it's a Windows application to configure the
rest.  Warning about the 3510 - After just about any configuration
change it reboots.  The thing get's rebooted more than a Windows 95
box...
If you have an interest in VTC, but don't want to bite off the 20-40K to
get started with MultiPoint VTC, I can recommend Glowpoint/WireOne for a
decent service provider in the lower 48.  They even provide the VTC
terminal equipment.  Do the numbers based on your expected use - you may
be supprised.
One item about VTC/h.323 regardless of whose equipment you use:  Get
your QOS butt in order and give yourself about 20% overhead on the VTC.

PIX VPN 'Understanding' [7:44158]

2002-05-14 Thread William Pearch

So I finnally have time to just try things.  And what do I do?  Try
something that doesn't seem to work.
I mirrored the configs from the CCO for a PIX to PIX to PIX IPSec fully
meshed VPN.  All seemed well, until I tried a h323 conversation between
PC's behind different PIX's.  This did not work.  
I don't understand why.  Perhaps it is that I don't understand the PIX
well enough to troubleshooot.  ISAKMP SA's were created.  Just the h.323
doesn't work.  Idea's?  
The Cisco page in question is
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/110/pixmeshed.html 
Hardware used was Pix 501's with PIX OS 6.1.  Polycom VTC gear and
software on the Windows 2K PC's.

Thanks for any enlightenment any of you may have on this one.

 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

Subject: Re: CCIE in 3-6 Months from cisco Interesting [7:43306]


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 experience I mean,
 really, does it matter if you setup HSRP in a lab or in the real-world?  I
 think not... HSRP is HSRP

 I guess, when it comes down to it, I feel if you (the hiring person) wants
 someone that can explain CEF, which models have software CEF, which have
 hardware CEF, which 6500 blades are fabric enabled and which aren't just
by
 their model number, then you're not looking for anything but sheer
 experience.  So why blame the cert for not providing that background to a
 person, when that's not the point of the cert to begin with?

 
  Two friends of mine, for example, are basically lab-rats (Ok, they
  did have previous experience, but very little).  They accomplished it by
  basically borrowing my lab and all my books.  They can't find decent
work,
  because they can't pass the newly tightened tech interviews.  So they
are
  back doing sys-admin work, which is what they had been doing before 

SCEP - x.509 Certificates and IOS [7:43277]

2002-05-03 Thread William Pearch

Ok, so with all the 'gurus' out here, there must be someone that has done
this before.
I've gone through all the documentation I can find on Microsoft's web site
and Cisco's web site looking for information on setting up a CA on Windows
2000 and having a Cisco router use SCEP to register for a certificate.  I've
loaded the SCEP plug in, upgraded the version to the most recent on the
Windows box, but I'm still haveing troubles with registration.  Using IOS
12.1(9)e on a 7206VXR and/or 12.2(4)YB on a 1760.
After setting the hostname, domain name and creating the RSA keys on the
router I do the following
(config)#crypto ca identity YourCA
(ca-identity)#enrollment url http://IP.ADD.RES.S:80/certsrv/mscep/mscep.dll
(ca-identity)#enrollment mode ra
(ca-identity)#query url ldap://IP.ADD.RES.S
 
Then authenticate... all is well
(config)#crypto ca authenticate YourCA
 
I get the fingerprint, accept the cert.
Then enrolling:
(config)#crypto ca enroll YourCA
Starts the enrollment, provide the challenge password for revocation
purposesaccept the defaults for the certificate name, ect
Fingerprint comes up like it should...
then BAM!
%CRYPTO-6-CERTREJECT message
 
The microsoft cert server is set up as a stand alone root CA, and the web
enrollment for certificates is working just fine(user type certs).
 
Ideas?  Thoughts? 
Thanks!
 
Bill

2 interesting questions on DLSW + [7:43041]

2002-05-01 Thread William Lijewski

I have two questions about DLSW + that I could use some explainations for. 
I would greatly appreciate any feedback you may have.

1) When you are doing DLSW Lite across the Frame Relay why is it necessary
to map the LLC2 across the frame when you are not using passthrough?  I can
undertand it when you do specify the passthrough command, but without it I'm
kind of confused?  (is it because there is no other mode of transport across
the frame since its encapsulating it in the frame packets)

2) Here is one that you will probably never get, but there are a couple of
us trying to figure this one out and can't find any documentation on it. 
Okay, say you have the following lists set up for DLSW:

dlsw ring-list 1 rings 1 2 
dlsw port-list 1 s0
dlsw bgroup-list 1 bgroups 1 3

and then you do a command:

dlsw remote-peer 1 tcp 1.1.1.1

Which list does it actually apply to the remote peer?  Does it apply all of
them?  The 1st one?  Anyone know for sure?

Thanks and sorry for the rather long post.

2 questions I'm confused about [7:42739]

2002-04-27 Thread William Lijewski

Hello all,

I have 2 quick topics I could use some clarification on:

1) There is a new command for 12.2 called 

PPP MULTILINK LOAD-THRESHOLD

What is the difference between this command and DIALER LOAD-THRESHOLD, and
when would I use one over the other?

2) In OSPF you can advertise the newtworks in 2 ways:

network 180.4.4.0 0.0.0.255 area 0

or 

network 180.4.4.4 0.0.0.0 area 0

What is the advantage of advertising just the specific interface, is there
really a difference between the two?

Thanks in advance.

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.

   I think in the long run, an advanced degree is more of a benefit than

 not, you probably want to be sitting in a director's chair ordering other

ISDN CHAP / PAP Authentication ? [7:41108]

I am confused about the debug output of a simple ISDN configuration.  I have

authentication, and R2 is using CHAP PAP.  Now the debug is what is throwing
me :

03:23:12: BR0 DDR: Dialing cause ip (s=180.1.113.1, d=180.1.113.3)
03:23:12: BR0 DDR: Attempting to dial 8358662

03:23:13: BR0:1 DDR: dialer protocol up.

It shows that CHAP is successful?  Then is shows PAP as successful also? 
Shouldn't it just skip over CHAP and go straight to PAP?

I have also tried to change the CHAP hostname on R2 to something different,
then CHAP authentication fails and the PAP never kicks in?

Can someone explain this to me or point me to a good document on the subject?

Thanks in advance.

Absolutely, positively wrong, though. That's an urban legend that has

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.

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?? ;-]

forgo the big book and use the Exam Notes (used books

640-025 (the exam the book was written to) is still

AS-Path Filtering in Confederations? [7:40249]

2002-04-02 Thread William Lijewski

Can you filter out certain confederations (in the main AS) using AS-Path
access-lists?  I don't think that it's possible since they are technically
in one big main AS.  I have also tried it to no avail, but the thing that
makes me think it may be able to be done is if I do a show bgp regexp ^$ it
shows just my routes local to my confederation, not anyone elses.  I've
looked on CCO without any luck.

Can someone tell me if this is possible or not?

Thanks.

Example:

(65001) - (65002) - (65003)

I want to filter so that confederation 65003 does not see any routes that
originated in confederation 65001 using AS-Path Access-Lists.

FW: Cisco Devices in MS Active Directory [7:40095]

2002-04-01 Thread William Harrison

Chris,

Let me add to what David has said well.  While Active Directory is Microsoft
Directory service and is based on industry standard X.500 and LDAP and
Kerboros.  It is SNMP that is the only link between your Microsoft and Cisco
devices.  Therefore,  management at best is monitoring the whole network.  I
think you will find that programs, such as Ciscoworks, are written because
of the nature of business.  Every manufacture wants his product to be
unique.  As far as SMS goes, it is capable of detection and monitor any snmp
device.  The key would be the response to the monitoring.  SMS could only
notify you at certain alert levels.  This may be fine for your purposes.

As final thought,  consider your purposes and needs for management.  I think
that a combination of products is currently your best for full management!

Chris,

We've been looking into several network management packages. The answers all
seem to be the same. Network management software can find devices via a
number of methods but all need the hardware vendor's specific management
software to adequately work with each company's devices. In the case of
Cisco that would of course be Cisco Works. I don't know yet whether MS's SMS
software interfaces with CiscoWorks or not but it would certainly be able to
manage it via Active Directory. There are several other companies that have
similar software that would integrate with Active Directory as well.

Hope that helps some,

Do both sides need MFR configured in order to talk or RouterB simply have
F/R encapsulation on his serial interface?

If there are pvc's on each F/R connection at RouterA, what should I use for
the interface-dlci?

What do I configure in terms of DLCI's at RouterB?

Is it necessary to configure a MFR subinterface?

The 1 example I found doesn't give a great deal of detail.

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

Classful Prefix-list [7:39113]

2002-03-21 Thread William Lijewski

Can someone tell me how to create a Prefix-list to only alow classful routes
for BGP.  I know you can do the following with an extended access-list:

access-list 100 permit ip 0.0.0.0 127.0.0.0 host 255.0.0.0
access-list 100 permit ip 128.0.0.0 63.255.0.0 host 255.255.0.0
access-list 100 permit ip 192.0.0.0 31.255.255.0 host 255.255.255.0

Is there way to do it?  Any good reading material on Prefix-lists?

Thanks in advance.

 sponge off your neighbors, have 8 SUVs, and SAY pretty much what you want.
 Oh, there may be repercussions of saying things.. but most times the

 you *disappear*(watch of the unmarked black helicopters)

 So *Jim*.. bad mouth us all you want and personally I will enjoy the fact

The best book is the Caslow book, followed by either the Exam Cram or the
Sybex book (neither of these books are particularly brilliant in their own

It's *Americans* - plural, as in lots of Americans, more than one, but still
one.  Many united, FOCUSED Americans.  

And by the way, we *are* thinking.  We are thinking about which parties are
going to be next in line to be recipients of the large amounts of ordinance
that will be dropped by our Air Force as an example of what happens to
people who attack or support people who attack innocent civilians in office
buildings; or anywhere else for that matter.
