Re: ISDN Simulator.... [7:50405]

2002-08-01 Thread Thomas Larus

Someone just asked me ISDN simulators, and told me that the price of the one
they were thinking of buying, an Emutel, had dropped 500 dollars.

I have a Teltone ISDN Demonstrator, and I like it fine, but I would look
into the Emutel if its price has fallen so much.  You don't need NT1s for
the one he is looking at.  The Emutel is British, I think, and the folks in
Europe don't use NT1s, I gather.  They get to connect to S/T interfaces, so
their ISDN simulators tend to use S/T interfaces.  The Emutel may have U
interfaces, too, for all I know, which would be good to have in case you get
routers that already have NT1s built in.

2 issues off the top of my head...

1)The physically one router creating one full network (2 points) will
not work- it's called IP address overlap and you'll see the errors when
you begin to configure this.

I have seen this many times within my own goofing-ups. 

2)I'm almost positive your 4500 BRI interfaces are S/T and will require
an NTI.

A second ISDN router should not be a huge investment.  I have seen the
2524 and 2525s on Ebay sell for less than $200.  With a little memory
upgrade- it could run as a peer (Enterprise functions) to your 4500.

It depends what type of ISDN simulator he has if he will need an NT1 or not.
If the simulator has S/T interfaces on it already, then he will NOT need an

Re: ISDN Simulator [7:41896]

2002-04-20 Thread CiscoB

JB,

No, I think getting an ISDN simulator is more effecient.  You can always use
your isdn simulator for 6 months than turn around and resell it.  I guess it
really boils down to how much money you can afford to spend and how much
time you will need the ISDN lines for.  If you only need the isdn lines for
a couple months, then it might make sense to go with a couple ISDN lines.
However if you're going to need them for the long haul, (6mos-1yr), I'd go
with the simulator.  When I was going for my CCIE, I dished out $2800 and
got the teltone ILS-2000, when I could have gone with the ILS-1000 but just
didnt know any better.

Re: ISDN Simulator [7:41896]

2002-04-19 Thread Wes Stevens

I think you will find that renting real isdn lines will end up being much 
more expensive. You will really need at least 4 months of time to prep. Even 
if you use only one line it is going to cost you $240 and then you will not 
be able to simulate ppp mulitlink. If you look at what the simulators are 
going for on ebay they hold their value very well. I have seen people sell 
slimlines used for more then you are selling them new. They rarely go for 
less then $100 off of the new price.

If a person is patient you can find an older merge for around $1000 on ebay 
every now and then. Also you need to look everywhere on the internet. I 
found a teltone isl-2000 at a used test vendor for a very good price a while 
back.

RE: ISDN Simulator [7:41896]

2002-04-19 Thread Barbee Jason

It's already been said that getting the lines run is usually too expensive.
I know from experience. In my area it was $200/mo to install. $80 for 2 B
channels. That's just 1 ptp link. you would need to buy another ISDN line to
get 4 B channels, and be able to use multilink ppp connections. ($160/mo
recurring costs)

Simulators. I bought a used Teltone Demonstrator and 2 NT1 devices for
$1400. I almost bought an alternative - a 2610 with NM-2V, VIC-2-BRI-NT,
which will simulate an ISDN network. The cost on them is almost the same as
a regular simulator, with the ISDN simulator being more supported, possibly
more accurate, and ready to use, no configs required.

Here's my suggestion for a shoe string option.
You mentioned your shool, but you say your schedule is off. You can schedule
time on remote racks, and you'll have access to the equipment remotely. This
way, you can plan on having a day of access to the rack, rather than hit
and miss. I offer this type of rack access at www.CCIEwannabe.com. There
you can access all of my routers, and practice on my ISDN simulator.

For example, my cost of $20 for 24 hours of access will get you access to
the ISDN network, without large investment in equipment. In another month,
you can come back, and refine your skills. Your cost after this point would
be about as much as it costs to ship a simulator.

For me, buying a simulator made the most sense, because I provide it as a
service to Cisco canidates. You'll have to determine how much you would be
willing to spend to rent, or if it's worth it to put somewhere near $1300 in
your home lab. If you find you're wanting to use ISDN daily, the simulator
may be a good choice.

There are a few good reasons to buy a simulator. You can usually resell it
for somewhere close to what you paid for it. If you have ISDN routers at
your house, you can access them any time, without scheduling the time.

I'll list a couple other online racks you can investigate. I don't know if
all of them have ISDN, and I have no connection or experience with these
labs, I have seen them around, and I'm just providing them for reference.

Thats a good one Brad.  You can try to fool yourself but I hate to tell you
your underhanded tactics are just as low (actually lower as your supposed to
be a reputable CCIE) than the people who post posing as customers saying
hey, go check out this web site, the have great test prep material, all the
while they are the ones selling the material.  Just because you hid your
lack of ethics in the guise of a response to a question doesn't change what
you've done.  Let's look at your post...

BEllis Quote:
If you want the lowest price simulator available, you should go with the
simline2.  It has S/T interfaces so it goes nicely with 2503s, 2504s, etc.
Paul B. (the owner of groupstudy) also bought one of these for his home lab.
I believe he posted about it somewhere.  Check the archives:
www.groupstudy.com  If you want more detailed information  on the simline2
you can visit www.cheapisdn.com
BEllis Unquote:

Now lets see... you speak as to how great the simline2 is.  You refer to how
satisified the owner of groupstudy is as if he's just a friend of yours who
bought one and liked it and told you about it.  You make no disclaimer that
you are affiliated with that site and that YOU WILL directly line your
pocket with cash when the purchase is made.  You make no mention that Cheap
ISDN (remember,  you get what you pay for) is actually Network Learning.
Now how this is not deceptive to you?  Have you ever heard of full
disclosure?  Or I guess to you speaking as if this is something you just
heard about and hiding the fact that you'll make lots of cash on the sale
is not being deceptive?  How about let's disclose in your future unbiased
recommendations that you'll directly profit from the said recommendation?
That would be the honest, upright thing to do!

It's funny how you bash Duncan for not disclosing he works for your
competitors yet you do not disclose you work for the company you recommend!
Hah!!!

  Ronald,
 
  If you want the lowest price simulator available, you should go with the
  simline2.  It has S/T interfaces so it goes nicely with 2503s, 2504s,
etc.
  Paul B. (the owner of groupstudy) also bought one of these for his home
 lab.
  I believe he posted about it somewhere.  Check the archives:

Thats a good one Brad.  You can try to fool yourself but I hate to tell you
your underhanded tactics are just as low (actually lower as your supposed to
be a reputable CCIE) than the people who post posing as customers saying
hey, go check out this web site, the have great test prep material, all the
while they are the ones selling the material.  Just because you hid your
lack of ethics in the guise of a response to a question doesn't change what
you've done.  Let's look at your post...

Now lets see... you speak as to how great the simline2 is.  You refer to how
satisified the owner of groupstudy is as if he's just a friend of yours who
bought one and liked it and told you about it.  You make no disclaimer that
you are affiliated with that site and that YOU WILL directly line your
pocket with cash when the purchase is made.  You make no mention that Cheap
ISDN (remember,  you get what you pay for) is actually Network Learning.
Now how this is not deceptive to you?  Have you ever heard of full
disclosure?  Or I guess to you speaking as if this is something you just
heard about and hiding the fact that you'll make lots of cash on the sale
is not being deceptive?  How about let's disclose in your future unbiased
recommendations that you'll directly profit from the said recommendation?
That would be the honest, upright thing to do!

It's funny how you bash Duncan for not disclosing he works for your
competitors yet you do not disclose you work for the company you recommend!
Hah!!!

If I ever have some extra voice cards laying around, I need to try this :)

Ken-  the 2500s are S/T interfaces which means you need a NT1 between them
and the ISDN line. The 1600, 2600 etc with WICs can come either flavor, U or
S/T. The U interface has the NT1 built in. If the simulator does ST, the NT1
is built in for you. Some will do both.. many older ones only do one or the
other.

I use an Emutel myself.. I have seen here on the groups one from someone
else which looks to be a pretty good deal given the stiff prices of a  used
simulator on eBay.

2001-11-22 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Kenneth,

Hi!  That is a Simline2 you are referring to.  It's a great ISDN simulator
and most certainly the CHEAPEST way to emulate an ISDN switch for a CCIE
lab.  We've sold quite a few of them and I can recommend them very highly.
We used to sell the Emutel Solo which is also an excellent product, it just
costs a few hundred more.  The main difference between the Simline2 and the
Emutel is the Simline2 has only S/T interface types and the Emutel is
software selectable for either S/T or U.  If you have a 2503, 2504, etc with
S/T inteface types, the Simline2 is great because you do not need an
external NT1 (like you would with a Teltone ILS-1000 demonstrator).  One of
these days I'll write a FAQ about all the ISDN simulators:

Merge
Teltone ILS1000  ILS2000
Emutel Solo
Simline2

Did I miss any?

If I ever have some extra voice cards laying around, I need to try this :)

Ken-  the 2500s are S/T interfaces which means you need a NT1 between them
and the ISDN line. The 1600, 2600 etc with WICs can come either flavor, U or
S/T. The U interface has the NT1 built in. If the simulator does ST, the NT1
is built in for you. Some will do both.. many older ones only do one or the

I would suggest when you are ready for the ISDN, to rent a rack with the
simulator rather then try to bluff your way through it using a sim program.
That way you can try all kinds of configs, not just what the sim has.

My rack has a 2 port S/T simulator. The newer ones can use either a U or S/T
but I got mine at a fair price so beggers can not be too choosy :) Right now
it's between two 2500s.

Re: ISDN Simulator [7:8132]

2001-06-12 Thread Ed Dombrowski

I dont think there is any such thing as an affordable ISDN simulator but i
got the Emutel Solo and it works like a champ. It has configurable S/T or U
interfaces and supports all kinds of switch types. It is comparable to the
Teltone ILS 2000 ($2800) and the price direct from Arca technologies is
$1995. The only problem is that buying it direct is a HUGE pain in the butt.
I eventually bought mine from the supplier that is associated with
ccbootcamp.com. It was more then the direct price but saved a lot of time an
hassle. They sell for pretty big bucks on Ebay so i figure if after i am
done with it i can sell it for 70% of what i payed it isn't so painful.  HTH

Hey guys,

I found out my problem. I am using a Demonstrator, even though the person 
who sold it to me told me that it was a Teltone-2000. To compound the 
problem, one of my straight through cables only has pins 1, 2, 3, and 6. I'm 
glad I had a few NT1s sitting around.

Thanks for the help,

I just got my Teltone ISDN simulator in the mail, but I can't seem to get 
it working. The simulator, by default, is setup to use Basic-ni1. I 
connected both of my routers directly to the simulator using 
straight-through cat5 cables. I then typed no shut on the bri0 interfaces 
and set the isdn switch-type as basic-ni1 on both of the routers.

When I type show isdn status, I get this:

Router#show isdn status The current ISDN Switchtype = basic-ni1 ISDN BRI0 
interface Layer 1 Status: DEACTIVATED Layer 2 Status: Layer 2 NOT Activated 
Layer 3 Status: No Active Layer 3 Call(s) Activated dsl 0 CCBs = 0 Total 
Allocated ISDN CCBs = 0

With my basic configuration, shouldn't the layer 2 be working? Can anyone 
spot any problems with my setup?

Re: ISDN simulator problem

BS,
I don't how much different the ILS 2000 is from your model, but the
one I have has
 a RS-232 async --- DB 9 connection for the software support.  Teltone has
the software that can  be downloaded from their web site.   Basically it
allows you to change between the 4 major bri switch
types...

National ISDN-1
ATT Custom
DMS100
ETSI

The only difference here is that like the National ISDN-1 which requires
"spids" to be configured the
ATT Custom does not require them.

What you have here is a contradiction in terms. There are no cheap
simulators. Black Box sells a simulator that I know nothing about, but they
do offer 20% for you first purchase. This brings the price down around $1700
I think.

If you check the archives, there is mention of a company in Dallas that
resells the every popular Teltone. This is supposed to be one of the cheaper
outlets to purchase this simulator.

I chose the Emutel because of the software reconfiguration of the ports
between S/T and U. I don't think the Teltone does that. The Emutel also is
completely configurable with respect to numbers and such. I think the
Teltone is a fixed number configuration. I'm sure someone will correct me if
I'm wrong. The Emutel is around $2000 and you can purchase them from a
company in San Francisco.

And then there is the Adtran Atlas 550, with modules it is more expensive
than any of the above, but leaves you with unlimited configurations for your
lab. When its time to do PRI, T1, etc. this unit is your man for the job.

RE: ISDN Simulator

2001-03-15 Thread Dennis Laganiere

I love my Emulel, but it took me a while to figure some things out, so
here's what you need to get the thing running...

Emutel Lite ISDN BRI Simulator Configuration
PortB-channel   DN* SPID
1   1   384000  384001
1   2   384010  384002
2   1   384020  384021
2   2   384030  384022

* The DN (Directory Number) is similar to a phone number used to identify a
desired connection. 

The ISDN switch-type for the Emutel Lite is basic-dms100.

If you are planning to attach this unit to Cisco 2503's you will need two
NT1s; hardware devices that can be purchased retail for $150-200, or on
e-bay for about $50 (don't forget, you need 2 of them)...

With that, you should be ready to go...

Re: ISDN Simulator

2001-03-15 Thread Groupstudy

OK lets see, using your prices here is a price comparison of renting two
ISDN lines or buying a ISDN simulator for the typical 4 month study period
required to get your CCIE certification.

Two line ISDN rental:  $300 setup fee's and $100.00 per month rental fee's

Purchase 1 Teltone ISDN Demonstrator: (has two ISDN line capability)
$1700.00

OK you are now in for $700.00 in rental fees or $1700.00 ownership costs.
Here is where the buying pays off, most CCIE candidates fail their first
attempt and a retest is now a seven month waiting period which equates to
$700 more in rental fees bringing your total to $1400.00. Still cheaper than
owning an ISDN sim though huh?  Not quite...

You can now turn around and sell your ISDN simulator for close to what you
paid for it say $1500.00 bringing you total cost of ISDN practice to
$200.00.   I would love to see you trying to resell your used rental fees to
another CCIE candidate :-) ...You eat $1400.00.

RE: ISDN Simulator

2001-01-12 Thread Jim Brown


Just picked up and Emutel Solo this week.

PROS
1. Interfaces are S or U software configurable
2. All numbers and spids are software configurable
3. Uses a power supply, but has a battery for about 2 hours of runtime when
disconnected from PS. Easy to take home or on the road.

CONS
1. Worst documentation I have seen in a while.
2. Seems to drop layer 2 intermittently? Only requires a reboot of
simulator.
3. No phone in tech support. E-mail only!

Yes, what they have is correct.  It's a floating static route that is
given an admin distance higher than the one derived through the routing
protocol.  It is designed to kick in as a last resort.  They are
routing all traffic to 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 out interface BRI0 and
setting an admin distance of 200 on that route.

There is nothing wrong with this and, in fact, it is quite normal.

Hi Charles,

I agree with Andy...check into the monthly rate of ISDN in your area, that 
may be the best
way to go.

A few months ago,  another engineer and I bought a ISDN simulator from ARCA
Technologies. We decided upon ARCA mainly due to the fact that they have a 
2 port BRI
simulator with built in NT1s. They were little more expensive than Teltone,
but the unit has worked fine.

I agree, its a hefty investment for your lab, and perhaps sharing the cost 
of the simulator
may make it more affordable ?

Good luck

Re: ISDN Simulator

2001-01-08 Thread Sam .

FYI

My company just purchased an ARCA Solo.
The ISDN ports can be software switched to S/T or U interface.
Also they can be switched to ADSL if required.  Rest of the features are 
same as the Emutel lite.
I heard that they have stopped the Emutel Lite. Cost of the Solo is same at 
the LITE.. about $1995 plus shipping.

I that for a single user $1995 is a bit too high. But if the company is 
paying then i guess its okay.

to conclude there is no such beast.   EBAY is a bust thus far,  and the
best
price I have found is for a Teltone (www.teltone.com) ISDN simulator at
http://www.bigdcom.com/teleline.html. Big D is a Groupstudy recommended
site;  they sell the ISDN simulator about 1600 bucks, give or take some
change.

Now to the crux of my dilemma:  do I or don't I?  That is, ask my Mistress
for this for Christmas, Halloween, and so forth.  She is standing here
reading this, so I appreciate how wonderful she is! So beautiful with great
taste in men!   Also, very heroic:  she kept me from drinking a coffee
flavored Slim Fast (we were out of beer).

Before I approach the checkbook with hat in hand, is this best price?  I
mean, really?  Has anyone else had better luck?  I hate the thought of
spending 1600 bucks on a 100 bucks worth of wiring and chips.  Perhaps is
it
time for Groupstudy to form a buyer's union, where we can pool our money
and
buy in bulk at almost wholesale prices.  Good idea?  Bad idea?  Too much
headache potential?

Luckily for me, Big D is in the Dallas area so I plan on there in person
and
talking to them about these simulators and their prices.  If interested, I
will let the group know what happens.  If not, I'll keep mum.

Flames, comments all welcome!

Charles

RE: ISDN Simulator

2001-01-08 Thread Brandon Rose

It's funny...  maybe an hour ago I got an e-mail from Amazon suggesting I
take a look at the ISDN CIM for only $120.  Is that a sign?  I'm in the
market for an ISDN simulator, but I'll probably bite the cost and still just
get the actual physical box as opposed to the CIM.

I know Amazon has an extremely accurate profiling database; it's uncanny how
dead on their recommendations become after you spend a lot of money with
them over the course of a few years.  Think they teamed up with the FBI's
Carnivore system and read my e-mail too?  heh

2001-01-07 Thread Andy Walden


Depending upon your location maybe you could order a couple of ISDN
lines. Where I'm at, for residental, they are $40 flat rate monthly. You
could have them installed for nearly two years before they approached the
cost of the simulator.

RE: ISDN Simulator Ni1 or ATT Switch type

2000-12-12 Thread Taylor, Don

It really doesn't matter which one you choose. NI1 is a standard that will
run on ATT's 5ESS and Northern's DMS switch types. If it were me, I'd get
the NI1 standard, but there's not a heckuva lot of different in the configs
of the two types.

RE: isdn simulator

2000-10-27 Thread Daniel Cotts

I am aware of three manufacturers;
Teltone makes two models. Check out their web site. They are sold through
distribution such as Anixter, Graybar, Specialized Tools, etc.
http://www.teltone.com/telecom_solutions/test_tools/test_isdn-demo_features.
html
http://www.teltone.com/telecom_solutions/test_tools/test_ils2000_features.ht

Arca Technologies makes several models. Their two port BRI model is less
expensive than Teltone. Other models get pricey. I have spoken with a Rep,
Dean Coleman at 800-888-1978 ext 252
http://www.arcatech.com/

IMHO the Adtran Atlas 550 is the way to go. One or more ISDN PRI ports and
BRI ports in groups of four. A one PRI, four BRI model at dealer price is
around $3k. List price is much higher. Again sold through Distribution such
as Comstor.

Is the less expensive Teltone ISDN Demonstrator good enough for CCNP lab
