I was in a rush at a branch today when trying this, so i quickly abandoned the idea and moved on, but i wanted to know if it was possible. I was trying to build a layer bridge of a single serial t1 interface to a single ethernet interface, so I could effectively have my ethernet only router routing directly on an MPLS network. Is it possible? I ended up just sticking another layer 3 network in between, but cisco's website made it seem as though it was as easy as int serial 0/0 bridge-group 1 int fa0/0 bridge-group 1 Obviously since i am posting this, it was not that easy.

Sure you can do that. You need some stuff in the global config as well, and maybe an IP interface for it.code:

What is Cisco replacing their 4500 with? I need a 6500/7600 style core piece of hardware with redundant SUP that I can aggregate DIA connections on and get them off of our Core network.

If you don't need any of the "exotic" interfaces, then stacked switches are the way to go.

Are you looking to replace the 4500 because it won't take a full table? What type of interfaces do you need and how many?

Basically we have several 6500s as our Core routers. We have individual 3750s setup with trunks to ATT transport and our own various transport networks that are cabled to individual interfaces with the customer's IP. the 3750s are used to encapsulate this traffic in a vlan. I want to completely isolate our DIA customers that are less than 100mbit, do not require BGP, etc. I figured a stacked situation may be the best bet but wanted to ask. I originally thought about going with a 4500 but our resaler poo poo'd it for me and my boss by pointing out their EOL. Was hoping for something with multiple SUP cards for some extra fault tolerance since reliability and redundancy are big bullet points for my boss. I'll need > 100 interfaces to start with, for sure. A stack of 4 3750x's will provide power redundancy for me and barring a major catastrophe, should provide enough redundancy in general.

Uhm, go for a 4500 with Sup7 or Sup7LE depending on your routing table / uplink requirements. They are definitely not EOL and perform at 48gbps per slot. Edit: A 4500 will usually be cheaper than doing more than 3 or 4 3750Xs in a stack. And you get VSS on them these days! ior fucked around with this message at 20:17 on Apr 12, 2013 |

Make sure you are looking at the "E" chassis. Also whenever you look at EoL cisco hardware there is almost always an upgrade path that will be mentioned in the same announcement.

Great! I'll look into a 4500E! TY! Quick related question. An SVI with an IP will be up/up and the switch will route that IP/range if there is a trunk that is up/up and carrying that vlan, correct?

From the releases I've seen, you should be able to take the old icnd1/2 tests until Sept 30th. I'll hit up my buddy at pearson vue to check the backend info because I need to take my icnd2 before they change it up.

Some genius at Pearson VUE thought that 8am Monday morning was an apt time to upgrade their scheduling software and, thus, was not providing correct information. I should be able to schedule the 802 test later today or tomorrow.

So I'm installing CSACS 5.3 in one of our networks that isn't running any version of ACS yet. I've had no problem getting 4.2 to work before, but for some reason I cannot get it to allow me into privileged/exec mode. It just keeps coming back with authentication failed each time; I've tried updating the command sets, shell profiles, and triple-checked the service selection rules and default access policies. Any ideas? e: I'm using TACACS e2: Apparently acquisitions didn't purchase a support contract to go with this. Sigh. e3: Figured it out. Under the shell profile, you have to actually go in and set "Maximum privilege level" to Static and then elevate it to 15. For some reason, 5.3 treats "Not in use" as an implicit deny of all privilege escalations. psydude fucked around with this message at 19:23 on Apr 16, 2013 |

Just dropped another 300 to take my CCNA for the second time. Anything I should really really look into? Got the 640-802 test, btw. Just gonna spew a few things out that I know I need to have in mind. Please correct or extrapolate on anything. VLAN Pruning on the server basically restricts broadcasts and the like to their own VLAN, correct? Broadcasts on vlan 4 or whatever won't also broadcast out to Vlan 5? etc? ios software - flash saved config - nvram running config - ram rommon/bootstrap/etc - rom 224.0.0.1 - All Hosts 224.0.0.2 - All Routers 224.0.0.5 - OSPF All Routers 224.0.0.6 - OSPF All DR Routers 224.0.0.9 - RIP 224.0.0.10 - EIGRP FECN - WAN router sees congestion sent from far device and tells it to chill out BECN - WAN router sees congestion from local device and tells it to chill out 0x2142 - Ignores startup config in NVRAM and boots clean config 0x2102 - Default, boots directly into saved config if available 0x2101 - Same as above but boots into rom mon first(?) STP default priority - 32768 STP Priority calculated in 4096 increments, lowest priority takes precedence. If all bridges share same priority then lowest MAC address. Isn't there a situation where the priority number has a 1 added to it? I've seen questions before where the default priory was 32769 because of somethign to do with the MAC address? ibss - ad hoc wireless between two devices, no WAP bss - single wap/ssid ess - multiple waps/ssids 802.1q - trunking protocol 802.1d - STP 802.1w - RSTP Root bridge has all designated ports, blocks the port it receives STP updates on, sets port to Root for port that gets back to root bridge quickest, and sets all others it forwards out BDPUs as designated?

"When the extended system ID is enabled, the root bridge priority becomes a multiple of 4096 plus the VLAN ID." So if you see 32769, that number is taking the bridge priority of 32768 + VLAN 1.  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst6500/ios/12.2SX/configuration/guide/spantree.html#wp1020362 Bluecobra fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Apr 16, 2013 |

Zuhzuhzombie!! posted:VLAN Pruning on the server basically restricts broadcasts and the like to their own VLAN, correct? Broadcasts on vlan 4 or whatever won't also broadcast out to Vlan 5? etc? You are confused about some stuff here. VLAN Pruning in VTP Server mode (where you have a server switch with clients) will actually automatically prune vlans from being extended to unneeded ports. If you have 3 switches and 3 vlans and the Root switch for all vlan is on one end. If the other end of the switch chain doesn't have any ports in a specific vlan then the trunk to that switch will not carry that vlan at all. Pruning without VTP running (transparent mode) does the same thing, but it is manual, i.e. the Network admin must prune unneeded vlans at all trunks. e.g. switchport mode trunk switchport allowed vlans 1,150,250 Broadcasts by default are segregated by VLAN, remember the only way VLANs talk to each other is through a router. As for the configuration registers: http://www.sinclair.org.au/keith/cisco/cisco_configuration_registers.html But in practice I only ever use 0x0 (go to ROMMON) 0x2102 (normal boot) 0x2142 (boot, ignore startup config).

The controller firmware will be the longest part, but if you want to get fancy and you're not afraid to use the CLI, you can preload the image on your APs. This means when your controller boots up the new software, your APs reset and it's done. http://www.my80211.com/home/2011/2/20/wlc-predownload-the-image-to-the-access-points-from-the-cont.html

Before I get into any of this I'll say that I'm not well equipped to be configuring Cisco APs as I haven't even started my CCNA stuff yet, but was told to do so anyway by my boss. I have three Aironet 1140 APs all broadcasting the same SSIDs (one 2.4ghz and one 5ghz). One in the basement (Channels 11/161), main floor (Channels 6/149), and upper floor (Channels 1/36). I'm getting reports from the basement of a spotty connection. Random drops, etc. Also it seems that android devices are unable to connect. I've tried tinkering around with the security protocols and antennae strength but nothing seems to be helping. Would one of you kind souls be able to look at my config file and tell me what I did wrong? I guess I should mention that these APs came set up as lightweight, so I had to flash firmware 15.2(2).JB on there. Here's my config, it's pretty much the same on all three devices except for the channels and device names. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/88636140/config.txt

I know for our WLC based configs we always remove the lowest speed settings as many devices will attempt to connect when they're barely in range resulting in a terrible experience for the end user. I don't actually know what the config settings are for that (do you just remove the basic-1.0 or the mX. settings at the end too?) but I'd try that. Most likely you actually need more APs, a basement setting in my mind is lots of concrete reinforced walls meaning bad times in wireless land.

Just tried removing the lower speed settings so we'll see how it goes. I doubt we need another AP because that basement is tiny as heck and it seems like the signal is good wherever I am. Also thanks for the exam info guys, I'll definitely be looking into that.

They're junk. I've seen a few in the field that locked up, bricked, lost configurations, etc. They're also a right pain in the rear end to configure compared to a normal Catalyst.

Hitting OSPF hard in preparation for my test next Thursday. So if the process ID has nothing to do with DR election, nothing to do with the router ID, and is only significant to the router it's on and can be duplicated on other routers, then what does it do exactly? What is it significant to?
