It's funny, the only person I know who got the CCNA WAN Switching was a CCNP who also wanted the letters "CCNA" on his resume in case he ran into a headhunter who knew what a CCNA was, but had never heard of a CCNP. I've heard of stranger things, but not many... > -Original Message- >

You'll need access to the router that's local to the remote host. View that router's ARP cache (show ip arp, etc.) and you should be able to find it. hth, Hal Logan Network Specialist / Adjunct Faculty Computing and Engineering Technology Manatee Community College > -Original Message- >

Funny that you mention that... I recently got ahold of a McGraw Hill book, "CCNP Guide to Advanced Cisco Routing" by Michael Grice. I found that his book goes well beyond the CCNP level, going more in-depth on BGP and a few other topics than many CCIE-level books do. I also have the CCIE Lab Pract

It looks like Anil wants to get RIP to advertise the 193.9.200.0 network. A secondary address may work on one of the interfaces, but it would need to be on a different subnet. Notice from the config, he gave the secondary address the same IP as the primary addy. No matter what he does with the 193

If the books say 640-503 (not 640-403) then you're looking at material for the new test. What is now the Routing exam, 640-503, used to be the ACRC, 640-403. Use the 503 books you have and spend some time working with a rack of routers and you should be in good shape. Hal Logan Network Specialist

That's normal. BGP doesn't actually route data like an IGP does, it only handles routing information. You don't have to use RIP, you can use an IGP or (preferably) static routes. Hal Logan Network Specialist / Adjunct Faculty Computing and Engineering Technology Manatee Community College >

It can be done, but your telnet program has to support the break sequence. The telnet program that ships with win98 won't do it, but if you use hyperterm as your telnet client, that does work, depending on the OS. The version of hyperterm that ships with win98 supports the break sequence, but the

The ip helper-address is the right direction. Are there any filters on the WAN side, either on your router or at the ISP? You need UDP port 67 enabled for your setup to work. As for the ip forward-protocol command, when you enable the ip helper-address, several protocols get forwarded, not just dh

Thank you everyone for your answers. At first I was wondering if some special config had to be done on the DHCP server itself, but that isn't the case. Gaz, you're saying that DHCP takes the source of the request into account when it dishes out addresses, and it looks like you're right. The DHCP s

This is kind of an off-the-wall question, is there a non-proprietary IGP that supports unequal-cost load balancing? Granted, you could tune the OSPF metrics so that two paths would appear equal (as others have pointed out) or you could use RIP, assuming that the hop count to reach the destination
