Cisco CCNA Exam Tutorial: Using Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)

If TFTP isn't secure, why use it? Learn the details for your CCNA and real-world success from Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933.

One of the first things you do when you start studying for the CCNA exam is memorizing a list of port numbers and the protocols that run on those ports. If you're an experienced networker, you know most of the protocols that are mentioned - DNS, DHCP, FTP, SMTP, and so on. But there's one protocol that you might not have experience with, but is actually vital for CCNA exam success and success in working with Cisco routers and switches, and that's TFTP - Trivial File Transfer Protocol.

TFTP is basically FTP's non-secure relative. There are no passwords, no authentication scheme, no nothing! As someone once told me, "If I'm transferring my files, there's nothing 'trivial' about it."

Great. So youre thinking, What the heck do we use TFTP for, anyway?

TFTP is used in the Cisco world to perform IOS upgrades and to save configs to a TFTP Server. Cisco routers can themselves serve as TFTP servers, or you can use a workstation to fill that role.

Cisco CCNA Exam Tutorial: Password Recovery Procedures

Learn how to recover from a lost password on a Cisco router from Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933.

cisco, password, recovery, ccna, exam, tutorial, configuration, register, 2500, router, enable, ccie

It might happen on your CCNA exam, it might happen on your production network - but sooner or later, you're going to have to perform password recovery on a Cisco router or switch. This involves manipulating the router's configuration register, and that is enough to make some CCNA candidates and network administrators really nervous!

It's true that setting the configuration register to the wrong value can damage the router, but if you do the proper research before starting the password recovery process, you'll be fine.

Despite what some books say, there is no "one size fits all" approach to Cisco password recovery. What works on a 2500 router may not work on other routers and switches. There is a great master Cisco document out on the Web that you should bookmark today. Just put "cisco password recovery" in your favorite search engine and you should find it quickly.

Cisco CCNP / BSCI Exam Tutorial: EIGRP Route Summarization

Its not enough to know how to summarize routes to pass the BSCI exam, you need to know the commands for each protocol! Learn how to summarize routes in EIGRP with Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933.

Ccnp, bsci, exam, pass, route, summarization, summarize, binary, conversion, eigrp, ospf, external, route, summary, address

Summarizing routes is a vital skill to learn to pass the BSCI exam and get one step closer to earning your CCNP. The actual binary conversions are only part of the test, though! You've got to know how to correctly apply the summary routes, and that differs from one protocol to the next. In the last few CCNP / BSCI tutorials, we've looked at using the "area range" and "summary-address" commands to perform OSPF route summarization. Today, we'll take a look at summarizing routes in EIGRP.

We'll use the following four loopback addresses in this example:

Loopback 16, 16.16.16.16 /32

Loopback 17, 17.17.17.17 /32

Loopback 18, 18.18.18.18 /32

Loopback 19. 19.19.19.19 /32

On R1, we'll place these four addresses into EIGRP AS 100.

Cisco VoIP, Easy Shortcut to an Effective and Unified Communication

Technology has a never-ending story. It speaks about change and evolution and not about permanence. From film-making to video game consoles, expect that technology will find a way to change these things into something that will interest the public as well as have it coping up with the drastic change of time and society.

From the traditional method of recording films during the pre-war times, there you have modern film-making equipments to help film-makers and producers make their movies very interesting to the viewing public. Fantasy, scientific fiction (sci-fi), and animated movies are now possible with these modern film-making gadgets and equipments. On the other hand, from the 2-dimesional graphics and monotonous audio outputs of Magnavox and Atari video game systems, there you have the seventh generation of video game consoles, such as the newly-released playstation 3 and the Xbox 360, which is now the center of attention of the gaming public.

Technology changed the way the people look and use such stuff.

It is not surprising to see communication tools evolve through the course of history. From the Morse code and telegraph mode of communication during the early times come the modern and sophisticated communication tools, which are produced for a single purpose-to provide individuals an effective, reliable, and convenient communication channel in keeping in touch with their friends and loved ones all over the world.

Regular telephone lines started the saga of modern communication system, which allowed individuals to make voice calls anywhere in the world in exchange for a certain fee charge on a per-minute or per-call basis, depending on the telephone service provider. At the later decades of the 20th century, mobile phones were introduced to the market. Such mobile phones allowed a user to make voice calls even if he or she is in a remote area, provided that the mobile phone service reaches such remote area. Satellite phones are also produced to cater individuals who are living outside the coverage area of a regular mobile phone service provider. These are all products of technology to make existing communication systems convenient and reliable for the public to use.

At the early years of the 21st century, the communication industry introduced another form of modern communication, which is said to be the most reliable and cost-effective communication tool nowadays-the Voice over Internet Protocol, or commonly known as VoIP. This latest communication offering is now wisely used for business application and now getting popular among residential and other applications as well.

VoIP differs from other communication system in one thing-communication medium. Unlike in regular telephone lines that make use of underground telephone cables and mobile phone lines that make use of signal towers, VoIP relies on a high-speed Internet connection to facilitate voice calls. Thus, VoIP routes voice conversations using the Internet or other Internet Protocol (IP)-based networks.

VoIP became popular to business applications because it cuts down telephone bills by as much as 60 percent, both in terms of installation costs and monthly bills. You only need to purchase one VoIP infrastructure and upgrade your existing VoIP system if you will need several lines in the future. In addition, VoIP systems are cheaper by about 22 percent in terms of operation compared to circuit-switched networks. That is why the installation cost and monthly billing in VoIP system is cheaper compared to regular telephone lines.

Such advantages prompt telecommunication giants to switch from their traditional phone system operations to VoIP system. One of which is Cisco, which provides VoIP-based structures to help business organizations integrate their communication system closely with their business processes as well as to ensure that information and other data reaches the intended recipients by using the most appropriate medium.

Cisco's primary VoIP offering, which is the Cisco Unified Communication, is now a recognized product in voice as well as in data communication. It combined the advantageous features of networking security and open application programming interface to facilitate an effective business communication channel within the walls of your business organization, which can lead to simplified network management and lower total cost of business operation.

Soon, Cisco will introduce the VoIP system extensively to residential and other essential applications. They are committed to provide an effective and unified communication not just for businesses but for the world as a whole.

Ccnp, bcmsn, pass, exam, training, vmps, dynamic, vlan, network, port, assignment, free, host, mac, address, switch

Knowledge of Dynamic VLANs and VMPS is important in your efforts to pass the BCMSN exam and earn your CCNP, and it's also a great skill to have for your networking career.

As a CCNA and CCNP candidate, you know how and why to configure static VLANs. Static VLANs can be a powerful tool for reducing unnecessary broadcast and multicast traffic, but if hosts are moved from one switch port to another, you've got to make those changes manually on the switch. With Dynamic VLANs, the changes are made - how else? - dynamically.

The actual configuration of dynamic VLANs is out of the scope of the BCMSN exam, but as a CCNP candidate you need to know the basics of VMPS - a VLAN Membership Policy Server.

Using VMPS results in port VLAN membership changes being performed dynamically, because the port's VLAN membership is decided by the source MAC address of the device connected to that port. (Yet another reason that the first value a switch looks at on an incoming frame is the source MAC address.)

Cisco CCNP Certification / BSCI Exam Tutorial: Route Summarization Basics

To pass the BSCI exam and earn your CCNP certification, youve got to master the basics of route summarization. Learn how to do just that in this article from Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933.

Ccnp, ccna, exam, pass, free, certification, route, summarization, rip, igrp, eigrp, ospf

As you earn your CCNA and CCNP certification, you're going to have to get comfortable with manually summarizing routes. This isn't just another reason to learn binary math (although it's a good one!), but summarizing routes is a true real-world skill that can help your network operate more efficiently. So the question isn't just how to summarize routes, it's why.

When you summarize routes in RIP, IGRP, EIGRP, or OSPF, you're replacing a series of routes with a summary route and mask. With RIP, IGRP, and EIGRP, this actually lessens the size of the routing update packet itself - multiple routes are replaced with the summary route. For instance, the routes 8.0.0.0/8, 9.0.0.0/8, 10.0.0.0/8, and 11.0.0.0/8 can be summarized as 8.0.0.0 252.0.0.0. Only the summary address will be found in the update packet, making it concise yet complete.

If there's one CCNP / BSCI topic that looks so easy but can lead to a real headache, it's route redistribution. I'm not even talking about the routing loops and suboptimal routing that can result when route redistribution is done without proper planning - I'm talking about the basic commands themselves. Leaving out one single command option, or forgetting what else needs to be redistributed when redistributing dynamically discovered routes, can leave you with a routing table that looks complete but does not result in full IP connectivity.

In this free CCNP / BSCI tutorial series, we'll take a look at three common errors in route redistribution configurations, and how to fix them. We'll use three routers, R1, R3, and R5.

cisco, ccnp, bsci, exam, pass, free, tutorial, ip, helper, address, broacast, router, forward, ccie

While routers accept and generate broadcasts, they do not forward them. This can be quite a problem when a broadcast needs to get to a device such as a DHCP or TFTP server that's on one side of a router with other subnets on the other side.


If a PC attempts to locate a DNS server with a broadcast, the broadcast will be stopped by the router and will never get to the DNS server. By configuring the ip helper-address command on the router, UDP broadcasts such as this will be translated into a unicast by the router, making the communication possible. The command should be configured on the interface that will be receiving the broadcasts.

R1(config)#int e0

R1(config-if)#ip helper-address ?

A.B.C.D IP destination address

R1(config-if)#ip helper-address 100.1.1.2

Cisco Training Courses: All about Asterisk VoIP Hosted PBX

In today's world, fast and reliable communication systems are very important. This is why many people are now using the internet and telephone systems in a daily basis and in fact, these tools are even considered as two of the most important communication equipments today.

With the telephone, you will be able to communicate with your family, friends and even your business associates. It provides a fast and reliable way to communicate with people wherever you are in the world. This communication tool is so important that companies today can never survive without it. Almost every homes and large companies today have telephones installed in their homes.

Another tool for communication that is also considered as one of the most important communication tools is the internet. The internet provides a cheap way to communication with your family, friends and business associates. Through emails and instant messengers, you can instantly send letters and chat for free.

Today, the communications industry has made another breakthrough in improving the way you communicate. This system is called Voice over Internet Protocol or VoIP for short, or also known as Internet Voice. This communication system is very much like your conventional landline telephone system but much better. In fact, many people are now considering getting rid of their old conventional landline phones and convert their subscription to VoIP.

This is because VoIP offers a lot of services and benefits to their clients that conventional telephone systems cannot. First of all, VoIP uses the internet to transmit and receive data. This means because it uses the internet, your voice is converted to digital data and sent to the other end of the line. Because it uses the internet and uses digital data, communication is much reliable, much faster, and also much clearer than conventional landline telephones.

Another great thing about VoIP and its internet usage is that it provides low cost or even free long-distance or overseas calls. Try calling someone overseas for five minutes using a conventional phone and a VoIP phone. You will see that VoIP provides clearer and faster communication. Also, when your monthly bill arrives, you will also observe that the cost of the overseas call made through VoIP is much lower than the same call made with your conventional landline phone.

These are only some of the benefits of VoIP. What if you need a PBX for your company? You will notice that it will usually be very expensive to do this with conventional telephone system. However, with VoIP, you will see that it will be much cheaper and more reliable. IP PBX will work just like a conventional PBX. However, this will be based on VoIP systems and will be connected to the internet to communicate instead of phone lines.

VoIP is now widely available today. VoIP service providers are now advertising their services online and are also offering business VoIP. However, if you want to have your own VoIP in your home and you also want to join the company that provides VoIP, you have to learn how to install different kinds of VoIP.

Cisco training courses are now offering VoIP installation courses. One such course is the Asterisk VoIP Hosted PBX.

They provide comprehensive training materials to better teach you how to install VoIP in homes and offices. You can see that VoIP can definitely benefit homes. However, you have to consider that the Asterisk VoIP Hosted PBX is for large companies that needs reliable communication systems.

With Cisco, you will learn all about the different VoIP PBX hardware business solutions and its uses. The Asterisk VoIP Hosted PBX networks all your office phones into a single line of communication that is connected through the internet.

IP PBX is one of the most useful tools that you can have in your office. With this hardware, all communication systems in your company are controlled.

So, if you are planning to install VoIP in companies, you should consider taking Cisco VoIP Training Courses. This will include hands-on training with Asterisk VoIP Hosted PBX. Working with VoIP is definitely one of the best jobs in the world. Consider the fact that VoIP is now getting more and more popular and is fast replacing conventional telephones because of the benefits it offers.

Its one thing to have a plan, and an important thing now youve got to make sure you carry it out to its fullest potential. Thats easy to say until youre studying and a friend calls, or you remember that TV show you wanted to watch is on tonight, or you start surfing the Web for Cisco information and end up playing a game.


You MUST make these small sacrifices in order to achieve your main goal, the CCNA. Any worthwhile accomplishment requires some small sacrifice.


TV will be there when youre done studying. Your significant other will be there when youre done studying.
