    Wireless VPN Access Point

    I too have been getting kicked out of my vpn sessions lately on my wireless linksys, the funny thing being that it happened when I was upstairs (with at least a fair signal), but never when sitting right next to the AP. Hmm...

    Issues subnetting a wireless LAN

    Is Solution Engine the tool that you speak of? We are in the process of ordering that right now. So, what we can do is create a separate vlan for each wing, but allow for instances of all vlans on all AP's, correct? I'm also thinking we'll want to set up the solution engine first and see how...

    Issues subnetting a wireless LAN

    I'm looking for experienced feedback from someone who has deployed wireless on a semi-large LAN. There are three wings of our corporate office, and we have piloted Cisco wireless AP's in one of them successfully, and want to cover the rest of the building. The issue I have is that while it...

    Looking for a small but manageable switch

    You could be right. However, they all were in well ventilated areas. It just became too much to support, so we're going with 506e's across the board now.

    Looking for a small but manageable switch

    One very nice box would be the Linksys 802.11G wireless / VPN / router / integrated switch. However, I work for a financial institution, so there is some hesitation to implement wireless. They are manageable, but unfortunately there's no console access.

    Looking for a small but manageable switch

    There are two issues with the Pix501's. The first, from my experience, is that after being in the field for around a year, they become unstable and start rebooting themselves for no apparent reason. Cisco has yet to explain the cause of this to me, but we've RMA'd about 6 of them because of...

    Looking for a small but manageable switch

    We won't do anything special with them. It's simply that the smaller, remote offices tend to have Internet service from some mom & pop provider, and I feel that the more I can see, the better shape I'm in when there is a problem (whether it's the ISP's issue, or somebody on site has mucked with...

    Looking for a small but manageable switch

    It's a corporate thing. Cisco is our chosen vendor for LAN/WAN gear, and the 501's (which also have the 4 port integrated switch that you speak of) have proven to be less than reliable in the field... not a good thing considering that Cisco doesn't give you a technician on site as part of their...

    Looking for a small but manageable switch

    Does anyone know of a small network switch (let's say from 3 to 10 ports) that is manageable, and relatively inexpensive? I'm trying to find something for very small offices (typically 1 to 3 people) using VPN over broadband (the switch would obviously sit behind a Pix506e, which provides the...

    PIX 501 dhcp issue (default config)

    Turns out we had to enter a dhcp setroute command on the outside interface to get it to pull dhcp. Once it did that we were all set. thanks for the responses!

    PIX 501 dhcp issue (default config)

    I have a PIX 501 out of the box that won't pull dhcp from my cable modem. My understanding is that it should do so with it's default config. I know for sure that my cable modem is providing dhcp, and that it's not based on hostname because I switch back and forth between my home pc and work...

    PIX 501 dhcp issue

    I have a PIX 501 with the default configuration out of the box that will not pull dhcp from my cable modem. The documentation indicates it should work, and I'm positive that my cable modem delivers dhcp, and that it's not based on hostname because a swap back and forth between my home pc and...

    Beginner CCNA - help please!

    If you can get your hands on an older 2524, or better yet a 2620 that would be good. You don't necessarily need to connect it to anything though, I'd just console in and get a good idea of the different modes (user vs. priveleged, etc.) and try commands you see in the books. If you're taking a...

    Issue with time clocks on the network

    My company purchased time clocks that were intended to run on our LAN via IP.. only problem is that they never involved the network group, and now we have Kronos time clocks all over the building that will not allow for configuration of a default gateway. This is bad mostly because our core...

    flash partition on 2600 router

    After an IOS upgrade, the old IOS has been deleted, but is still showing up in the 1st partition when doing a 'dir /all', or a 'sh flash'. How do you remove the old flash to make the new one the 1st and only entry?

    4006 dhcp issue, phantom config entries

    Our 4006's are at the edge closets. I did find out that our senior engineer was the one who went in and turned off dot1q trunking. This seemse to have cleared up the problem for us.

    4006's / PC's not renewing IP's at end of lease

    4006 dhcp issue, phantom config entries

    I have two Catalyst 4006's in production, and no other switches (Cisco and non-Cisco) are doing this, but users in one area are having to renew their IP's manually (and we do have portfast turned on). Also, I noticed several entries in the config like 'set port channel 3/1-4 298', and several...

    4006's / PC's not renewing IP's at end of lease

    I've got two Catalyst 4006 switches on one wing of a building (other wings have non-Cisco switches and are not having this problem). Several users are having to manually renew addresses on their workstations after their DHCP leases expire. Is this a switch config issue?
