NEC is definitely a valid login name, but it keeps asking for an access code. I guess I'll just speak with my vendor Mon morning.

Thanks everyone. I just needed to change to 57600 and it worked great. Unfortunately, I don't have the username and password to login. Does anyone know the default one (willing to bet that our tech never changed it).

I am relatively new to the PBX world, but have had some training from our NEC vendor. I am trying to make some basic changes to our EliteMail VM system, however I'm not able to connect via the CoSession software that our vendor has given me. I'm plugged directly into the card with a 9-pin...

I have been tasked with installing a Dell (EMC) SAN for use by our web server cluster (uses NLBS among four Win2k3 servers). I am wondering the best way to go about this, as I understand that their can be difficulties with multiple systems attached to the same LUN. The goal is for all four...

I am the network administrator for my company, and by default our DBA as well. I am certainly not a SQL expert, but have been confronted with a fairly large problem that I'd like some help on. We have a SQL server that serves data out to about 200 websites. Besides serving data, their are...

DaHui, Is the static line a typo? It should be: static (inside,dmz) 172.16.1.0 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 0 0

Try adding the following to the config: sysopt connection permit-ipsec -Steve

I agree with NetworkGuy101. We have an IPSEC VPN (pix-to-pix) between our main office and our colo facility where our web-cluster is hosted (we have a lot of programmers that routinely do work out there) and we also have a remote access VPN. Right now home users login to the remote access...

In case anyone is curious, I took the exam on Sat (I did pass with an 888) and there were two simulator questions. The first required you to enable aaa and specify a TACACS+ server address. The second was to setup an IKE crypto map. They weren't all that tough, and my personal opinion was...

I am studying for the 642-501 exam (will be taking it next Saturday) and have heard some conflicting reports in the study materials I've used (this seems to be very common for Cisco exams), and I wanted to ask someone who has actually taken the exam. Some of the books talk about simulator...

Gary, Thanks for the site link. Unfortunately, I didn't find most of those manuals listed under the NEC documentation link. Am I missing something? If you have the manuals, would it be possible for you to e-mail them to me? -Steve

I just took over as the network administrator of a small company, and we have an Elektra Elite IPK PBX. I have noticed that we are spending quite a bit of money with our phone system vendor to do what I consider relatively minor changes to the system and I would like to take over much of the...

I took the CCNA 640-801 today, and unfortunately only scored a 794. I have to say that the exam was much more difficult than I thought. I am looking for any way that I can improve my score for next time, and did have one question. In the scoring of the simulator questions do you lose points...
