I live in Edison, NJ and would like to see if there are enough people interested to create a formal Lab environment to study for the CCIE R&S and CCIE Security. I am currently using GNS3 for my studies which is sufficient for the Routing environment but it can't really replicate Switches. Also the Security Lab is a bit more demanding as for as hardware and software is concerned and would love to start purchasing items towards it already. But, that's in the future. Right now i need people to keep me motivated and vice-verse. It's always better to do things in a team than lonesome. ... read more »

It’s a new day. I feel at home. It’s a journey back to my old passions “Cisco”. I left this year’s back and never thought about a return. When you cross thirty and life becomes dull, job becomes insecure, you need something to lighten your day and brighten your future. Here comes our evergreen CCIE. I know the challenge ahead. The path is difficult but thrilling. I wish to share my experience right from the beginning. It might bore you or it might thrill you but I am going to write it down here. Its just a humble begining.

hello,
I have read in the 3560 switch software configuration guide that a policy-map trust state and a port trust state are mutually exclusive and whichever is configured last it takes effect.
But I have tested this in my lab and I have found that the Policy-map trust state has always preference. I have tried all the possible options and the "trust whatever" in the policy-map is the command used for trusting traffic. It doesn't matter what you configure in the "mls qos trust" command.

I met with a candidate this week who took me through his last ten years of writing certifications that yielded very little good jobs for him. He admitted to making some poor choices when choosing which technology tracks to follow. Now, he believes, he is finally on the right track with writing his CCIE.
Getting into IT can get you a great job with a great salary. People in this industry generally average more money than people in other industries. Choosing a technology too stick with can also help you to focus- something most people can’t do. ... read more »

Once you’ve gained a sufficient amount of experience in the work world as a CCIE or a CCNA, you find more choices come upon you. One of those choices is the opportunity to choose between working for the VAR (Value Added Reseller) or working for the larger corporate network.
You’ll find hard core advocates on both sides. The VAR gives you exposure to more people, companies and different networks. Whereas doing a deep dive into a corporate network for an extended period of time gives you the experience of an extended amount of time in one place. ... read more »

Read ospf over frame-relay. One thing to understand here is how the hello messages are generated in various topologies of frame-relay.point-point, point-multipoint, point-multipoint(NB).
Also understand the compatability Broadcase and NBMA are not compatable with frame-relay.point-point, point-multipoint, point-multipoint(NB) and Vice versa.
Read and understood basics of route redistribution.
I want to understand all topics first and get comfortable with them while doing lab :).
So far it had been good rhythm...

And started with basic L3. Understood how a router actually does routing.(Longest route map, recursive lookup for interface and then encapsulation). Did some PBR and access list not fully comfortable with PBR and access lists. will spend some more time later.
Planning to start with some routing(rip,ospf) will get back to PBR later....
