Questions for cisco ccie lab

cisco ccie lab in the news

It had to happen sometime, but this weekend I completely dropped the ball on my studies.  I started

IEWB-DYN Lab 5 - BGP Highlights

Sun, 17 Feb 2008 14:34:17 +0000
Again, nothing too tricky on the BGP section (this is a lab rated 6!), quite a few peerings to configure. I actually missed on of these (R3 to SW2) out on my first pass of the question, but good job that I checked it and corrected my mistake.

second attempt and I still need to do it again

Whew! What an exam!


The proctor is a 5-CCIE holder and have been writing various CCIE lab
exam in the last couple of years.


This round of exam is having the same difficulties as my previous
one. Some trade off happens: there is (supposed to be) no wrong configs
in there. Even with fewer number of total tasks, the solution to be put
up is not a simple tasks (hey, this is CCIE all about doesn't it???)


Some oddities happened:



  • BGP ASN is different between the config and the diagram. The
    proctor admits this is a mistake when the config was loaded -> I got
    extra time for changing the config into the correct one

  • IGP and BGP diagram was mixed up and creating a contradictory
    information amongst them. I informed the proctor that the BGP diagram
    exist in IGP and I though this is a mistake. The proctor was helpful to
    inform me to ignore the wrong one.

  • There is already a routing protocol setup in there, in full working
    configuration. However, there is no guide in the exam paper mentioning
    that this task required a migration from that routing protocol into
    another routing protocol. The newly-configured routing protocol is the
    one that the scenario is 'migrating' into. Lucky enough I pop-up this
    question to the proctor that informed me the scenario is supposed to be
    migrating between one routing protocol to another.


It turned out that I still need to further prepare my next CCIE lab
:)


However, the result is not what I expected it would be. Some domain
areas are given total 0% whilst I strongly believe it was working fine
(I even verified it various times to ensure this is
what the question is after).


Unfortunately, since this is a self-funded CCIE preparation, the next
attempt I could go is after July this year. I have drained the budget
for this semester and the soonest availability of my budget is after
July.


Meanwhile, I am doing all sorts of crazy scenarios for the sake of my
own curiosity. Who knows that those scenarios will be its own workbook
that I could share with the CCIE community.
I still have the habit of being a constructive instructor/teacher
anyway, so I hope my own 'workbook' would teach me gradually to be ready
from 'ground up' to be 'fully-credible' CCIE.


The tradeoff is: this workbook might be the long duration version of
CCIE-to-be. But, whoever uses it will have the choice of fast forwarding
to the level in areas that they need to pick up (just like me!).


This blog will never end, even after I got my multiple CCIE credentials
in the future ;)



63 points of HATE

Sat, 31 May 2008 04:35:50 +0000
So I spent today doing IE Vol 2, lab 18. Take a wild guess what my score was.
The lab itself wasn’t that hard, but naturally that’s in hindsight. It hit me with a lot of stuff I’d never tried before, like redistributing BGP, EIGRP, connected and ODR on the same router. The ...]

MGCP Call Preservation

MGCP PRI backhaul does not support call preservation when transitioned from Callmanager to SRST and vice versa.

Wherefore art thou Master Command Index?

Sun, 29 Jun 2008 14:01:51 +0000
With the recent upgrade of the 12.4 documentation, the 12.4 Master Command List was broken into sections based on alphabetical order.  This means that you are no longer able to do an ‘in page’ search of all of the commands.  You either have to know what letter the command starts with or search multiple pages.  ...]

IPCCX - provisioning CTI port and Media termination groups

Tue, 25 Jul 2006 00:29:41 +0000
CTI ports take only 1 ms to reinitialize (ie, to get back to operation after a call is disconnected), but CMT groups will take upto 200 ms to reinitialize. IPCCX will not answer calls if there are no CMT ports available. So make sure you provision 10% more CMT ports than CTI ports.
