Cisco Ccna / Ccnp Certification Exam: Same Command, Different Results By: Chris Bryant | - As a CCNA or CCNP, one thing you've got to get used to is that change is constant. Cisco regularly issues new IOS versions, not to mention the many different kinds of hardware they produce! While it's always nice to have "the latest and the greatest" when it comes to routers, switches, firewalls, etc., we have to be prepared for the fact that not all our clients are going to have that latest and greatest!
For instance, there are still quite a few Catalyst 5000 switches out there ... Tags:ccna, ccnp, bsci, bcran, free, exam, tutorial, span, tree, protocol, router, switch, ios, 5000
Cisco Ccna / Ccnp Certification Exam: Frame Relay Encapsulation Types By: Chris Bryant | - When you're studying to pass the Cisco CCNA and CCNP certification exams, you quickly learn that there's always something else to learn. (You'll really pick up on this in your CCIE studies, trust me!) Today we'll take a look at an often-overlooked topic in Frame Relay, the encapsulation type. You don't exactly change this on a daily basis in production networks (not if you want to stay employed, anyway!), but it's an important exam topic that you must be familiar with.
Cisco Ccna / Ccnp Certification Exam Tutorial: Configuring Ppp Callback By: Chris Bryant | - You may run into situations where a router in a remote location needs to dial in to a central router, but the toll charges are much higher if the remote router makes the call. This scenario is perfect for PPP Callback, where the callback client places a call to a callback server, authentication takes place, and the server then hangs up on the client! This ensures that the client isn't charged for the call. The server then calls the client back.
Cisco Ccna / Ccnp Certification Exam Tutorial: Isdn And Multilink Ppp By: Chris Bryant | - ISDN is a huge topic on both your Cisco CCNA and BCRAN CCNP exams.

Cisco Ccnp / Bcmsn Exam Tutorial: Multicasting And The Rpf Check By: Chris Bryant | - Multicasting is a vital topic on your BCMSN, CCNP, and CCIE exams, and it can also be very confusing when you first start studying it. Multicasting uses concepts that are unlike anything you've run into in your routing protocol studies, and that can throw you at first. I speak from experience that multicasting is like any other Cisco technology - learn the basics, master the fundamentals, and then build your skills on that foundation.
Cisco Ccnp / Bcmsn Exam Tutorial: Multicasting And Reserved Addresses By: Chris Bryant | - Ever since you picked up your first CCNA book, you've heard about multicasting, gotten a fair idea of what it is, and you've memorized a couple of reserved multicasting addresses. Now as you prepare to pass the BCMSN exam and become a CCNP, you've got to take that knowledge to the next level and gain a true understanding of multicasting. Those of you with an eye on the CCIE will truly have to become multicasting experts!
Cisco Ccnp / Bcmsn Exam Tutorial: The Core Layer Of Cisco's Three-layer Model By: Chris Bryant | - In this section, you're going to be reintroduced to a networking model you first saw in your CCNA studies. No, it's not the OSI model or the TCP/IP model - it's the Cisco Three-Layer Hierarchical Model. Let's face it, just about all you had to do for the CCNA was memorize the three layers and the order they were found in that model, but the stakes are raised here in your CCNP studies. You need to know what each layer does, and what each layer should not be doing. This is vital information fo ...

Cisco Ccnp Certification / Bcmsn Exam Tutorial: Uplinkfast By: Chris Bryant | - You remember from your CCNA studies that when a port goes through the transition from blocking to forwarding, you're looking at a 50-second delay before that port can actually begin forwarding frames. Configuring a port with PortFast is one way to get around that, but again, you can only use it when a single host device is found off the port. What if the device connected to a port is another switch?
Cisco Ccnp / Bsci Exam Tutorial: Isis Router Types By: Chris Bryant | - To pass the BSCI exam and earn your CCNP, you've got to know ISIS inside and out. There are many similarities between ISIS and OSPF, but one major difference is that ISIS has three different types of routers - Level 1 (L1), Level 2 (L2), and L1/L2.
L1 routers are contained in a single area, and are connected to other areas by an L1/L2 router. The L1 uses the L1/L2 router as a default gateway to reach destinations contained in other areas, much like an OSPF stub router uses the A ...
