RE: Figuring out Config Register Values [7:15894]
on the subject ... another good search engine is the cisco/google engine http://cisco.google.com/cisco i have found this very helpfull in "pointing me in the right direction".. it will usually find a page that is in the general topic and i can search around from there to find what i really want... someone on the list passed this on to me some time ago .( nice chap ...forgot his name).

RE: Figuring out Config Register Values [7:15894]
Cisco research skills are as important as configuration and design skills and almost as challenging. When you find something that someone else couldn't find, please tell us how you did it. Page-by-page navigation instructions are very helpful because they help us learn the structure of the documentation. Your Cisco career will die if you don't get good at finding stuff in the documentation, and the only way to get good at this is to spend time with it. Here's where I like to start: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/index.htm Regarding the search engine, the best advice is not to depend on it too much. It is not very effective. It's much better to know where to look in the documentation. Also, take some time to learn the search engine's caveats for those times when you really want to use it. For example, the Cisco search engine automatically adds "and" between the words you enter so it only returns those pages that include all of your search terms. To restrict a search further, just include more terms. The search engine does not support the logical "or" operator. It only returns pages that contain all the terms. You can search for phrases by adding quotation marks. Words enclosed in double quotes ("like this") will appear together in all returned documents. Searches are not case sensitive. All letters, regardless of how you type them, will be understood as lower case. I discovered this the hard way. I did a search on SAID. Big mistake. ;-) But then I changed it to SAID VLAN and that was more effective.

You are correct. Instead of posting a URL I've sometimes given directions page by page to show how I reached a given topic.

Bri - that sounds good to me! :-) although I find that most people 1. just don't know WHAT to search for... searching on CCO is an art that evolves using practice, practice, practice, and weeding out the worthless hits 2. don't know how to find what they searched for in the webpages presented for those who are CCIE bound, it's an imperative to know the basics of the IOS documentation layout on the CD ROM.

I have been searching high and low on Cisco's website for information on how to figure out the hexidecimal values of various Config-Register. Example, 0x2141, 0x102, 0x2142, 0x2102 etc. I would like to know how to figure out the bit value and be able to tell what each value is trying to accomplish just by looking at them.
