Re: Loopback Testing [7:63515]
Actually, Frame Relay switches don't forward the loop messages received on local port to the remote port. You can only loop between each end router and it's local Frame Relay switch. So, unless this is a cross-over simulation, you won't be able to achieve end-to-end loop. So, you can do loopback tests between each end router and it's Frame Switch. As long as those tests show fine - and your configuration is correct :-) - and you still have issues it might simply be the telco problem. But most often than not, you gotta prove it to them by running these tests.

If so, perhaps extended ping is what you're looking for: routerA#ping Protocol [ip]: Target IP address: Repeat count [5]: Datagram size [100]: Timeout in seconds [2]: Extended commands [n]: y Source address or interface: ethernet0 Type of service [0]: Set DF bit in IP header? [no]: Validate reply data? [no]: Data pattern [0xABCD]: Loose, Strict, Record, Timestamp, Verbose[none]: Sweep range of sizes [n]: Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to , timeout is 2 seconds: ! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 24/26/28 ms routerA# Is that what you're looking for or are you trying to do something else? Regards, John Stephane Wantou Siantou 1/11/02 3:18:29 PM Hi everybody, I set up a network with 3 routers but I don't have hosts to connect to the ethernet interfaces.

use an extended ping and source the ethernet interface. I'm assuming you have connected these routers via serials.

RE: Help on testing connectivity between two interfaces [7:31701]
If you have nothing connected to the Ethernet interfaces they will appear as down. Configure no keepalive on the interfaces and they will be up up. As already answered extended ping is the way to simulate traffic from those interfaces. -Original Message- From: Stephane Wantou Siantou [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 11, 2002 4:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Help on testing connectivity between two interfaces [7:31685] Hi everybody, I set up a network with 3 routers but I don't have hosts to connect to the ethernet interfaces.

ISDN testing software [7:28350]
does any have a script already written that I could use to run ISDN testing, I have about 900 sites that I need to test one a week and verify that their backup line is working, We currently have a script that a guy wrote a while back that is doing the testing, the problem with his script is that if a site has more than one BRI interface that it will not test correctly. The one he has will login to the router, enable ping the dialer map, see if it has two active layer three calls and make sure it stays up for at least 30 seconds, long enough to make sure there is no authentication problems, and negotiation problems, or Telco problems. If you know of a perl script that will tell you that please let me know. Also if it will tell you how much the circuit is costing you. He has a old script that will log into the headend routers, or access servers and look at the log and pull all data that shows a connection from the site, and how long it was connected, then it will calculate the cost on what our carrier is charging us for long distance. The would be useful if anyone has something that can do these and report to us. Danny R.

When there go to the waterfront area have a nice C$12.00 Lobster dinner and visit the Titanic museum. Oh ya, no complaints about the testing facility.

problem about testing cisco GBIC ZX [7:19171]
Dear all : I 've are problem about testing cisco GBIC ZX in GSR. I just 've 50 M single mode fiber. Would you mind give me some information for test the GBIC. Story : Our client 've order 3 GBIC for Three-port Gigabit Ethernet Card . But, some problem in 2 GBIC can't pass connection test. Test 1 ) I use the SC fiber cross at both GI port at e.g ( Gi2/0 to Gi 3/0). The both 3GE-GBIC-SC status can not active the all LED is off. I 've try to sweep the TX RX position and sweep to next Gigabit Ethernet module..etc. Still no response . Test 2 ) Next test, it test is use the one fiber cable only (single side). Make the GBIC TX RX in loop at single fiber. Just one GBIC can enable up. Other GBIC still is no response ! Remark : In this section the fiber have tested at both tx rx is up. Our GBIC is 1000BASE-ZX. Following massage back from TAC: ZX can reach about 70km, it is the most powerful one GBIC. Be sure to use attenuator, otherwise GBIC may be damaged by overpower level laser!!! In order to explain different performance from your 3 GBIC, I think we can look at the tx level of max 6db to min 0db. If the one tx 0db, certainly rx will below 0db. If the other tx 6db, 50m fiber is not enough to cause 6db loss, so interface is still down and GBIC may be damaged. 9/125um SM 1000Base-ZX SC 6 tx max 0 tx min 0 rx max -23 rx min 70 km 42 mile 1000Base-ZX can reach up to 100km (60mi) by using dispersion shifted SM or low attenuation SM Regards, Eric, Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.amexmail.com/?A=1 Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=19171t=19171 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Network Performance testing equipments [7:10962]
I hate network performance testing because it's so ellusive in it's typical moving target nature and different interpretations that can be derived from the data you do collect. Nevertheless, network performance analysis depends on baselining and analysis of historical data, which means you need two components, data collection equipment and data analysis equipment. You will also need a sedative and a confortable chair as you decipher the data you do collect to keep from going insane. For data collection I recomend net scout products. You can get these at www.netscout.com. I would also recommend distributed sniffers for those moments when you need an immediate snap shot of activity to put out fires. For analysis, I recommend the net scout software, but also a good sniffer software package, and a back-end database like SQL or Oracle. Having extensive knowledge of protocols, frames, and all layers of network operations is a must. Most of all I reccomend: THINK, just because a book will tell you that a certain condition means you have a problem means that thier explanation is actually the problem. It might be that the application you are using is actually using short bursty traffic as opposed to long persistent traffic, and your clog is really being caused by an unstable network being burdend by spanning tree or routing convergence. In practice, never ever, isolate on the traffic that isn't performing correctly and expect to get an answer, you have to analyize the entire make up of the traffic, including routing protocol updates, BPDU's, etc. I personally hate network performance problems because they can be so elusive, and sometimes there is no single problem that is causing the issue, and sometimes, fixing one thing, only adds bandwidth to make another unidentified problem worse, so management think's you are green and don't know what you are doing. It's alot like the highway system, traffic, good or bad, will always expand to fit into the pipe it's given, your management needs to understand that from the outset, or you are in for a long process of explanations as to why you are not doing your job. Good luck. Faisal Athar wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Hi Cisco Smarties ..!! Need your help Again!!

RE: Bandwidth Testing and Monitoring [7:8088]
Thanks for your reply Brian. Will the snmp gathering only give you the packet status and the configuration that you put into the interface configuration? What I am trying to gather is whether the bandwidth that we think we have is actually what we have available to us?

Splitting a BRI for lab testing [7:1604]
I've read on the list about using 1 BRI and splitting the B Channels to use a router with each B channel in a lab situation. How is this done? I imagine I need to split the B channels at a physical level. Can anyone explain how to do this. thanks, tim Tim Medley - CCNA, CCDA VoIP Engineer 704-943-3615 - Phone 704-525-9119 - Fax 877-6-iReady - Helpdesk Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=1604t=1604 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Splitting a BRI for lab testing [7:1604]
No cheap way around it, it will require an ISDN Simulator (hardware device that simulates 2+ ISDN lines, depending on model). ~US$1-2K depending on what features you want. Cisco ISDN CIM's (software programs simulating routers and ISDN configurations) run a lot less (US$150)and may be more appropriate. If you can get a few people to go in on an ISDN Simulator, I'd say it's the way to go, but otherwise it's a very costly investment to a personal lab. Another idea is to get two ISDN lines installed, but unfortunately for my area that's US$150/install (or was two years ago when I used to have it) and US$35/month/line + usage... at least with an ISDN Simulator you can resell it when you're done and get most of your investment back. We've a few dozen lines at my office, and when I was prepping for my Routing test at night I would just go in and hijack a pair to test with *evil grin*. The worst part is it meant physically going to the office, but it was cheap. -- Jason Roysdon, CCNP+Security/CCDP, MCSE, CNA, Network+, A+ List email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://jason.artoo.net/ Medley, Tim wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]...

Re: testing dial backup...
Hi, I am often amused by people that design sytems to work and test them to work. Why? At least test them to see if they fail to work. In a place I worked they had an UPS. This was to supply a backup for the entire computer room and state wide connumcations centre. Every other month they would come in and check the batteries test they were fine etc. One day the power to the building broke and so did the entire network. The UPS sat there and did nothing. It never failed. Guess what? Nobody had ever plugged the computer room power into the UPS. Nobody had ever shut down the computer room power to test it. After all you did not want to tempt fate and we designed it to work. Just a thought on why you should always test not only to see if something works but also attempt to break it under trial conditions. This is where age and experience creeps in.

Teunis, Hobart, Tasmania Australia I have to share the variant experience at one of the founding institutions in networking. They carefully analyzed power-consuming resources, and assigned the least critical to utility power only, the next most critical to backup with the campus diesel, and the most critical on UPS. The UPS was equipped with extensive power management consoles so even finer distinctions could be made when power was short. As a critical resource, the UPS controller was locked in a secure room, with an electronic lock. When the first major power failure hit, they discovered that the electrical power for said electronic lock had no backup whatsoever. And guess how the lock reacted to failures? Being unlocked, of course, would have been a vulnerability... Luckily, said institution had a tradition of lockpicking skill. On Friday, February 23, 2001 at 09:11:09 AM, Howard C.

testing dial backup...
I use floating statics to test backup non-disruptively, but then I use floating statics to initiate the backup as well, so I'm not sure whether this technique will work if you're using the dial backup command to initiate your backup. But for what it's worth... Choose a network address that is not known in your network (and that your users don't need access to for the period of the test, because this test will disrupt access to this). This will obviously depend on your particular network. You could make it a host address if you want. Create a floating static route to that network, pointing to your backup interface (dialer interface or whatever you're using). E.g. ip route x.y.z.0 255.255.255.0 dialer1 250 Make sure that ping traffic to that network is classified as interesting traffic for your backup interface. Ping an address on that network. The ping will fail, because (presumably) the router at the other end doesn't know where to send the ping, but it should raise your backup link. Remove the static route after testing. This is not a complete test. It does test physical connectivity (in my experience, the main problem with backup links is a telco problem that isn't picked up because the link is never used), but it doesn't test correct routing. Be aware that depending on your exact setup, this may be disruptive. For example, if for some reason traffic prefers the backup link once it's up, you could have unexpected traffic flows. If you redistribute static routes into a routing protocol on that router, (false) knowledge of your 'test' network may suddenly appear all over the place. Use with caution and knowledge of *your* network, and don't blame me if you break something :-) JMcL -- Forwarded by Jenny Mcleod/NSO/CSDA on 26/02/2001 09:53 am --- "Z" [EMAIL PROTECTED]@groupstudy.com on 23/02/2001 02:13:35 pm Please respond to "Z" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: testing dial backup...

Re: testing dial backup...
Some suggestions. Make sure the ISDN link works first by not placing backup interface commands in the config. Just ping the remote dialer interface IP and see if it is succesful. If its not theres a config issue. Once you know the dialer connection works then place the backup interface command on one side only. If you place it on both sides then the receiving side will be in standby mode and not accept a call. --- Brian [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You have to test it...no matter what.

ISDN testing question
Hello colleagues, I have a question regarding how to test an ISDN connection for a dialer interface that is mapped to a loopback interface. I am used to dialer map statements where I can ping the IP address that the dialer is mapped to, and that brings up the ISDN link. The interface I want to test now does not have dialer map statements, but looks like this: interface Dialer102 description IDSN Callback ID - Cologne, Germany ip unnumbered Loopback1 encapsulation ppp no ip route-cache ip ospf cost 1500 no ip mroute-cache dialer pool 1 dialer remote-name Router-Cologne dialer idle-timeout 300 dialer string 0031302341498 dialer string 0031302882561 dialer string 0031302893245 dialer string 0031302883823 dialer caller 31302883823 callback dialer caller 31302893245 callback dialer caller 31302882561 callback dialer caller 31302341498 callback dialer load-threshold 64 either dialer-group 1 no fair-queue pulse-time 0 no cdp enable ppp authentication chap callin ppp chap hostname HUB-ROUTER ppp multilink Is there a way to test if the ISDN works without bringing down the serial line ?

98 testing.......off subject of cisco
I realize this is not along the cisco lines, but I was wondering if anyone knows if the 98 test for mcse is still valid. I have had the nt and the 98 courses plus net essentials, but never tested. I realize nt has since been retired, but I can't find anything on-line anywhere about the 98 test. Is this still a good test to take or has everyting gone to 2000 track?

RE: 98 testing.......off subject of cisco
Jen, Depends on what your goals are, only 1 or 2 certs, stsp basics, you should/can do 98 and W2kP or W2k Server. A 6-12 months of rough study for MCSE W2k, yes can do. 98 http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/exams/examasearch.asp?PageID=70 -098 2000 http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/exams/examasearch.asp?PageID=70 -215 http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/exams/examasearch.asp?PageID=70 -210 retirement http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/default.asp?PageID=mcpPageCall =retiredSubSite=examinfo prep http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/default.asp?PageID=mcpname=exa m So http://www.microsoft.com/trainingandservices/ should do the trick.

Re: Back-to-Back testing
You'll need to make a back-to-back cable first. Pins 12 cross to pins 45. Config as you would for a true WAN, except have one router clock internal and one router clock line.

RE: Cisco online testing
No. You do get feedback as to which questions you got wrong, and what topic it is covered in, but if you feel that the answer that they show as being correct is not, you will need to verify it yourself. I would like to make another note. After reviewing the Cisco whitepapers that I downloaded to help me study for these exams, I noticed that there were even more questions on the actual exams that the answers to them came directly from the Cisco Documents (imagine that). I would recommend that while studying for the exams, anyone who REALLY wants to know the material should get as much information as possible directly from the Cisco Documentation, in addition to any other study materials that you may have. Remember the end goal is NOT just to pass the exams, but to know the material. In every technical interview that I have had, no one has ever asked me what score I received on an exam. They dug down deep into my knowledge to see what I actually know, which is miniscule to what most of you have :-) .
