Well your problem is that one you telnet into a router then you are AT the router. So whatever router you telnet into is going to be able to "see" his local hosts. Leastways that's the way it looks. Anyhow, I guess you might want to figure out in what manner you want to control...

I was just cruising the forums because, well.. I'm a geek with no life and I was bored. Anyhow, I notice that a lot of people keep asking for last minute study tips. I thought I'd just make a post about that. week 4 & 3 before the test: --------------------------- Use whatever study guide...

FWIW, I took my CCNA on a monday, passed it, and at the urging of a few people in the business I took the CCDA on wednesday and passed it. However... I don't really deserve a CCDA. I actually had to go back and buy a book to learn the material. I only passed it because if you can pass the NA...

Hung - Assuming you've done all your studying then for the last week before do practice tests and flash cards over and over again.

Thank you Chris. Anyone else have thoughts on this?

did you use the following command? interface fastethernet0/2 duplex full speed 100 Just spitballing...

Well, this may not fix your problem... It's a good idea anyway. I was reading an article by Eric Pearce in Packet Magazine and he was mentioning that when autonegotion doesn't work right it might leave one end full and the other half. Apparently it can cause some odd problems. All I'm saying...

No Mike, what I mean is... I understand why they put in the implicit deny and I agree that it is a good idea. It's just that they THEN tell you to end each ACL with an implicit permit. Schizophrenic.

I've just returned home after overdosing on chinese food so bear that in mind. Now, this is WAY out of left field so please don't laugh but... Are you letting the router and nodes auto-negotiate full/hlaf duplex?

I have some basic knowledge of linux. In fact, I'm typing this on my mac powerbook that I'm running yellow dog linux on. I can manage to get a modern distro installed, if it holds my hand a bit, I like Pine & Pico, I can even do a little bash quoting with a gun to my head and a refernce book...

Dude... check e-bay as well as amazon for used stuff.

I haven't seen the new books. But what COULD they say, you know? I mean, all the config stuff on the new test is basic, "get your router's working" stuff. It's basic enough that even the sybex e-trainer covers it. Plus of course, the 507 books are much cheaper! :D

Just practice on the router simulations a lot. I used the 507 book to pass the 607 test.

The cisco book and the sybex book do a nice job. buy the sybex kit that has the e-lab OR buy the RouterSim simulator. If you buy the RouterSim then just get the CCNP simulator. You'll need it eventually anyway and of course, it'll work for the simpler CCNA test.

Cisco isn't real clear about which host you use to telnet in. Pick the host that has a dotted line to the router. If you don't, you will get really odd behavior out of the simulator. It took me 10 minutes to figure this out on my test. Good thing I was doing OK on time.
