Lab 4 – “Full Mesh Frame-relay configuration using Point-to-Point Sub-interfaces” wants us to use point-to-point subinterfaces to create a full mesh network. For this we create a subinterface for each connection and assign the local dlci to that sub-interface using the Frame-relay interface-dlci command. Since the routers are configured as point-to-point links and every link [...]
Narbik’s Soup-to-Nuts Workbook Frame-relay Lab 2
Lab 2 – “Full Mesh Frame-relay configuration using Frame-relay map statements” is building upon Lab 1 but instead of using a hub-n-spoke topology, we are required to configure a full mesh setup using map statements. Once again very basic but still important for a CCIE candidate. Things like these should be second nature to us [...]
Narbik’s Soup-to-Nuts Workbook Frame-relay Lab 1
Lab 1 – “Hub-n-Spoke using Frame-relay map statements” is straight forward in a way that it goes over the basics of frame-relay and asks you to configure a basic frame-relay cloud using hub and spoke design. It also requires that we turn off the inverse arp before no shutting the interface. Finally I was required [...]
Narbik’s Soup-to-Nuts Workbook Switching Lab 3
Weddings, Engagements and other priorities kept me away from CCIE studies this past weekend. Finally I was able to get back to the Soup-to-Nuts workbook. Lab 3 is still about switching basics so I can reinfornce my switching concepts. As always I will list out what I think this lab helped me cover: VTP (VLAN [...]
Narbik’s Soup-to-Nuts Workbook Switching Lab 1
Today I finished Switching Lab 1 from the Soup-to-Nuts Workbook. This was a nice warm up lab that took about 2 hours because I looked up everything on docCD. My plan was simple, read the task, attempt it on my own, read through narbik’s explaination and then locate the information on docCD. I am using [...]
