RE: CertificationZone.com

2000-07-30 Thread Aaron K. Dixon

Certificationzone.com is an excellent resource for cisco certifications.  I
believe that they are working on a CCNP section, but many of the white
papers in both the CCNA and CCIE zone are relevant.  I used the site to
prepare for my CCIE written and my actual score was within 5 points of what
I received with Certificationzone's simulated exam.  After, I joined we had
a number of people interested at work and they ended up saving some money by
getting a group membership so if you have other co-workers studying you may
want to look at the pricing.  I paid full price and it has been worth every
cent.

Has anyone used this webpage before.. Are their white pages worth
the purchase? Will the information be usefull after I get my CCNA and
want to pursue the CCNP 2.0 track? Any Feedback would be appreciated.

Re: Certificationzone.com : This is a rip off [7:30560]

2002-01-01 Thread Howard C. Berkowitz

To avoid any appearance of conflict of interest, I let this through 
the moderation filter. Now, while I'm technical director for 
certzone, I haven't had anything to do with setting up the e-commerce 
part. You may have discovered an outright bug, and customer service, 
I'm sure, could help.  I can't speak for the financial people either, 
but if you ask, they'll probably refund the prorated time -- about 9 
1/2 hours of a one year subscription.

But there is a lesson here relevant to router operations. As I say, I 
don't know the details of the e-commerce server that handles 
membership.  As a consequence, I don't know exactly how its clock is 
set. While the certzone servers are physically in US Eastern time, 
they might be set to Zulu time. Look at any email message; the time 
is usually Zulu with an offset.

When debugging router interactions, just being on the same time zone 
is something to check, and then, depending on how tight the 
interactions are, you may very well want to turn on NTP 
synchronization.  Otherwise, you won't be sure about whether the 
chicken or the egg crossed the road first, or something like that.

In the ongoing IETF BMWG work on routing convergence, we are hoping 
that NTP will be good enough to track protocol behavior, but some of 
the more statistically-minded researchers are worried that it will 
not. I'm hoping that most of our basic measurements can be done using 
NTP-synchronized routers as the source and sink of data, but other 
workers are pressing for GPS or other, more accurate time 
synchronization.

But really...isn't the term ripoff a little strong? Or, should I say,

 no router rip

:-)

Happy new year.

I thought the NTP stratum 1 reference clocks were about as accurate as one
can get.

Off topic a bit, but one of my installed utilities is an SNTP client that
can use any public time source as a reference clock. I'm using NIST, NASA,
or the USNO depending. Aren't these sources based on the atomic clocks that
claim accuracy of 1 millisecond per century or so?

2002-01-01 Thread Jason

Chuck, the problem is that the PC / Router / etc clock could achieve the
same accuracy even with a stratum 1 reference.. Also, I believe that there
is a issue about latency as well Sort of if I said "NOW", do I mean
"NOW" when I said it or do I mean "NOW" when you hear it.. :-)) . I believe
that's the problem Howard was talking about below
