Oh, that's easy. Peter Packet! http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/779/edu/peterpacket2/NewBuild_forweb/default.htm No time to chat, actually have to work these days - good to see some old friends here.

Yeah, BCRAN.

I see, I don't do much security (yet) and have never heard of using tftp for transferring certs - I always use sftp for private key transfer but that's just for Linux.

Come now, Burt! You're the top MVP on TechTips - routers, you passed the dreaded CIT on the first go (I'll not tell my 803/804 story), and you have your own equipment that you work on often. What's a world as this where someone with the skills of Burt can not get a job?! Why, every day he...

It's a layer 2 topology, why wouldn't either work over frame relay? Perhaps you are speaking of some technology I have not heard of? voip and vpn shouldn't care what layer 2 topology they are carried over, as long as it's fast.

ssh to a 1600?

Perhaps if the core network ran iBGP. (heaven forbid) But, even then, I don't see the use as a static route probably would have worked just as well. Yes, it would know if a route went down which may save some time, but it seems like overkill.

Yeah, no kidding, you would think so! Unfortunately, it just isn't true if you ask Cisco.

Dang, I don't have an ios image for a 2691, 3620, 3640, 3660, 3725, 3745, or 7206. ftp.cisco.com has none. Of course, I'm sure I could find images for all of them on p2p or something, but, as of late, I've been stuck on this idea of using "legal software."

Interesting, I'll play with this right now on Linux, thanks.

Yes, and good riddance, yet I used it as an example

I didn't have any equipment for ISDN, yet I knew I would probably be required to configure it from memory for the BCMSN. So, I wrote down the configuration in a text document and read it over and over. Then, I practiced typing it out a few times. Then, I practiced typing most of it out from...

A good point. I would only use bpdu filtering globally which, for some silly reason, actually performs much different than if you enable it on a port. If you enable it on a port, you will get the operation which buckweet has described. However, enabling it globally, it will disable portfast...

Whoops! I meant to say "Split horizon will NOT allow you to send routing updates out the interface it came in on" However, if the next hop is out the same interface, I believe you can do that. It only applies to routing updates. Thanks for making me clarify that.

There was a really good cisco site to look this up and I can't remember where it was... Anyway, yes, a 3750 should do, but no, it won't work between clients and servers on the same subnet because they both need access to the same gateway. 1 subnet to 1 vlan. You could either segment your...
