IOS version 13.xxx ?? and a Rant...

2001-03-19 Thread Buri, Heather H

Hi Everyone.

Well, I finished my BSCN course through Global Knowledge last week.  I have
to say I was kind of disappointed.  I really was wanting to spend some good
time on BGP and OSPF but we had to rush through it because we wasted a whole
day going over RIP???  I thought this was supposed to be an advanced class!
My opinion is the only refresher we should have been given on RIP is:

Router Rip

Anyways, the instructor said they started making the labs easier because too
many people complained about them being too difficult???  :::sigh:::

Oh well.  Thank God for this list and I guess I will be saving myself $2000
on the CIT course now.  

I will be taking my exam on April 5.  I wanted to study BGP and Policy Based
routing some more.  

My instructor did mention Cisco was up to IOS release 13 already.  This was
news to me.  He said it had been out for some time.  My question is, has
anyone been using it yet?  My instructor did say that they finally did away
with my favorite command... write mem.  A sad, sad day!  Well, I knew it was
coming.  I don't suppose "c r s" will work at the command line??  :-)

I respectfully disagree with your summary point. I
know at least three CCIEs (R/S) that can't network
their way out of a paper bag. The odds are good that
you'll find one that has the knowledge, but its not a
guarantee. BTW - I have a number of co-workers that
have failed the lab but can kick most butts out there!

Wow, 13 already?  That's pretty surprising since 12.1 isn't GD yet and
12.2 isn't even out yet.

2001-03-19 Thread Buri, Heather H

Well, it may be like Z said earlier and that is...my instructor did not know
what he was talking about.  I thought 12.1 was still the most recent version
but then again, I have not been on CCO recently upgrading my IOS's either.
And...been too busy the past couple of days trying to get caught up from
being gone for a week from work.  I will check it out tonight.  :-)

2001-03-19 Thread Kevin Wigle

This doesn't make me feel like taking a course from GK anytime soon.

Making a simple mistake that it exists is one thing but saying its been out
for "some time" is scary.

Yep, this instructor is "up to date" with Cisco IOS. SO up to date he's
seeing the future.

Chances are that your instructor was driving a cab or installing security 
alarms for a living a few months ago... Read the course material for factual 
information related to the exam. I wouldn't rely heavily on anything that an 
instructor said - there's not a lot of "value-add" there...

Sounds like your instructor didn't know BGP either. What a shame. You could 
ask for your money back...

BTW, I like "cop run start" much better than "write mem." It's more 
intuitive. Not. &;-)

Re: IOS version 13.xxx ?? and a Rant...

2001-03-20 Thread Circusnuts

Your instructor's actions don't sound much in line with the real world.
Version 13 does not exist & the IOS versions are only up to 12.1.(7).  The
closest GD is 12.0(9) & Write Mem works on my 12.1(x) 4500 router.  Lastly-
I cannot believe someone teaching Routing 2.0 class would cover RIP & not
have time to cover BGP or OSPF.  I'm taking that test Thursday & my
co-workers (some have taken it a recent as last week) tell me the exam is
80% BGP & 20% OSPF.  RIP is a CCNA topic.

I'd be inclined to call Global Knowledge about this class.  I get just under
$5,000 a year in training money & this would infuriate me to know I blew a
chance getting ahead...

I say she should go for it. Most training partners are very concerned with 
customer satisfaction and try their best to offer high-quality classes. My 
guess is that her instructor was new. That happens. (It can be extremely 
difficult to teach a new class, but that's not her problem &;-) If they 
won't give her a refund, they might at least let her attend again for free. 
I realize it can be hard to get away again and possibly spend more travel 
money, but it's better than nothing.

Re: IOS version 13.xxx ?? and a Rant...

2001-03-20 Thread Pamela Forsyth


Yipe.  I just now noticed this thread, and it breaks my heart to hear
stories like this.

Global Knowledge classes are guaranteed.  I'm not sure Heather could get
her money back inasmuch as she did sit the entire class, but I am certain
they will let her sit the class again with a more experienced instructor.
Hey, I'm teaching BSCN in Arlington, VA for Global Knowledge the week of
April 23 . . . not scheduled for any Texas trips any time soon.

For future reference, Global Knowledge WILL refund your money or
reschedule you if you return your materials to the instructor by the end
of the first day.  Instructors are supposed to emphasize that during the
introductory remarks.

When you schedule the class, talk to the customer service people and ask
them about the instructor.  The best questions to ask are, "how long has
this person been a Cisco-certified instructor," and "how many times has
this person taught this class."  The instructor schedules are published
about a month in advance of the classes.

I hope you won't get a bad impression of all Global Knowledge instructors
because of this one.  I have had the distinct pleasure of auditing BSCN,
CATM and OSPF/BGP classes since joining Global Knowledge, and the
instructors in each case were outstanding in every way, but beyond
outstanding in terms of technical knowledge.  And I'm a tough critic,
believe me.  For example, how about having CATM taught by someone who
participated in the development of the protocols as a member of the ATM
Forum working groups?  Or BGP taught by someone whose consulting practice
focuses on designing networks for national ISPs.  And of course, the
groupstudy.com founder, Paul Borghese, is a Global Knowledge instructor.

RE: IOS version 13.xxx ?? and a Rant...

2001-03-22 Thread Shannon Murphy

I recently attended an IP Telephony class at Mentor Technologies and it was
a terrible class.  The instructor (who turned out to be the VP of sales) was
not very knowledgable about the product, although he did have a good deal of
background on CVOICE.  The entire class was very frustrated and I know the
three of us from my company complained to both Cisco and our Mentor rep.
After a few months of going back and forth, we've finally been a free class
to replace the one we took.

No Way Priscilla...

"wr" is all it takes when hammering across the Hyper Term window ;-)  I
agree- that class sounds like a bummer.  With you time in the field, what
have you heard about refunds or complaints in cases such as this ???
