I think I found an answer, basically only a few of the routers are having the RXBOOT image on them. yes, 2500, 3000, 4000 (i know for sure that 5400 has it) and others... but nowhere in the list did i find 17xx or 36xx etc. So its safe to assume that they dont have the rxboot image. Check this ur

Yes, I have seen this on 1720, I agree with you that you cant make it boot the bootstrap ios by using register value as 0x101 or 0x2101, however I didnt pursue it further, since it wasnt crucial for me. I guess it must be somewhere on CCO. Nick Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/

I seem to think its a route issue. IF u see on the first router, you have a default pointing outside, fine. But on the second one you have a router to 192.168.100.x now, when u ping from remote router, it will use the ip address of the BRI as the source and there doesnt seem to be a return path on

If your goal is to prepare for CCIE Qualification (written) my recommendation is : 1. Internetworking Tech. Overview (CCO) 2. Caslow (good for lab + written) 3. Jeff Doyle (Volume I) 4. Try either Halabi for BGP or CCO Get a few Boson's (try no. 3, it has about 400 Q's). and you should be fine.

Use Dialer watch, which basically monitors a dynamically learned route (eigrp/igrp) and if for the route disappears it activates the backup link. Since it is not reliant on an interface status (which could be reported as up), it would work in your case. The other option is to use dialer profile,

Well, the trouble that you are seeing is prolly caused when say for example you bring a SErial interface down on one end, but the switch(carrier network) reports the link as being up to the serial interface on the other end, so it doesnt switch to ISDN. I have seen this issue with particulary ATM

I think you have misunderstood what Cisco means by not having Appletalk & LANE (and Decnet, X.25 etc). They are actually removed from the LAB but they very much exist on Written. I would go on to say that you better know LANE, because I have heard that they really ask a few curly ones on LANE/ATM.
