Cisco used to list the 700 in its exam outline. It no longer does. I personally wouldn't bother to study anything that wasn't in the outline (especially something that Cisco went out of their way to remove from the outline -- they must've done that for a reason). But even if I tell you that...

It's probably better to think about sockets. A socket is an IP/port pair. Think of a web server. It listens on port 80. Lots of traffic shows up for port 80 and with the same desination IP. But the source IP/port and destination IP/port in total will always be unique. By keeping track of...

dogbert2, Totally agreed. If you generalize, no big deal. But if someone doesn't already know at least the generalization, they don't stand a chance anyway. If you read the entire NDA, what I said is true. "I had XX number of questions..." is a clear violation that show up a lot...

I have extensive satellite experience and no VPN experience. Questions such as yours have been coming up a lot over the last year, so I've poked my nose around a bit. The problem appears to be one of satellite latency and the apparently extensive handshaking that takes place with VPNs. You...

I think you need some outside help or you need to do some basic research on your own. I would suggest starting at www.cisco.com.

Oops. Just goes to show that troubleshooting up from the bottom towards the upper layers of the protocol stack is always the way to go. Glad you go 'er going.

You'll never get accurate information in a forum. Always go to the source: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/10/wwtraining/certprog/testing/current_exams/640-605.html Answers like "I had xx questions on such and such" are a violation of the NDA. Besides, I have always found Cisco's...

OK. I *think* I understand better now. I said "sc0" interface, but I think that's only the case with CatOS switches. Yours, I believe, is IOS. So you just have a VLAN1 interface instead of sc0. This is the L2 3500 and not the L3 3550, right? So if your workstation and your switch...

I should also add that a /21 mask for VLAN1 seems suspicious. The VLAN 1 network should have enough IPs to address each sc0 inteface in the network, plus room for growth. It's just a management VLAN. The only hosts in it should be the switch sc0s and the router interface(s). I'm just...

If interface VLAN1 on the router has an IP of 148.38.70.10, then all of your sc0 interfaces on the switches have to have their default gateway set to that address. You mentioned earlier something about a gateway of 148.38.71.254. It wasn't clear to me what that gateway was or where it was...

Do you have a VLAN1 interface on the router? I guess since you've configured the switch with a gateway, that kinda suggests that you have. But you didn't mention it specifically.

Well I've never thought about it. But bridging is entirely a L2 function. So when you set up a bridge group, you effectively shut off L3, which is where ACLs take place. Probably not going to work.

I think that might be a filename.

Of course. Something like 'copy startup-config tftp' or 'copy running-config tftp' The router will then prompt you for ip address of the tftp server, etc.
