Troubleshooting VoIP in Converged Networks

I recently did a recording for Cisco of a presentation that I've done at VoiceCon about troubleshooting VoIP in converged networks. This recording, along with links to the audio files referenced in it, is available from the Cisco Learning Network web site at:jivesoftware.com

The Cisco Learning Network home page is at:jivesoftware

The slides may not be very readable in the presentation and if that's important to you, then go to the Netcordia/Resources/Webinars web page to download a PDF of the presentation:netcordia

In the presentation I step through a set of common problems with VoIP, from adding a VoIP phone to a network to the causes of poor voice quality. I identify the problems that are typically encountered and how to troubleshooting them. Symptoms, causes, and remediation steps are described. In this presentation, I takes you through:

The processes of:adding a VoIP phone to a network
The types of problems that are typically encountered and how to begin troubleshooting them

Symptoms, causes, and remediation steps for typical VoIP network problems
Because there is more time in the recording studio than I have as a member of a panel at VoiceCon, I was able to expand on some of the trougleshooting topics. So even if you've attended my talk at VoiceCon, you may benefit by watching the Cisco Learning Network video recording. It is less than 30 minutes in length.

Default Cisco Router Web Interface Setup Makes CISCO Routers Completely Vulnerable

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow for the execution of commands on the device at any privilege level, up to and including privilege level 15. Accessing the device at privilege level 15 would enable total control of the device, including but not limited to device configuration changes and device reloading.

The Cisco Router Web Setup tool (CRWS) provides a Web interface for configuring Cisco SOHO and Cisco 800 series routers which allows users to set up their routers. The GUI is accessed through the Cisco IOS HTTP server, which is enabled on the default IOS configuration shipped with the CRWS application.

The Cisco IOS HTTP server uses the enable password (assuming one has been configured) as its default authentication mechanism. Other authentication mechanisms can be configured, including the use of a local user database, an external RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) or an external TACACS+ (Terminal Access Controller Access Control System) server. The default IOS configuration shipped with the CRWS application does not include an enable password or an enable secret command, allowing access to the Cisco IOS HTTP server interface at any privilege level, up to and including privilege level 15, without providing authentication credentials. Privilege level 15 is the highest privilege level on Cisco IOS devices.

The history of the Cisco CLI

I do not think many people know the history of Cisco CLI and its impact has had on the industry. Other companies are emulating, as in the last article on the subject shows. Network engineers usually experts in the Cisco CLI, then move to the craft of other manufacturers, it makes sense for companies to follow suit. Brad Reese, who writes for the Network World Cisco Subnet has an article about October 5, 2007, referring to CCIEs, hardware vendors copy Cisco's CLI and Cisco NetFlow accounts receivable.

Back in the 1980s and early 1990s saw the number of Cisco CLI change. The Cisco original, not even a CLI. According to Kirk Lougheed has one of the founders of Cisco, it was designed only to load its configuration via TFTP. He said he needed the ability to change the configuration to a trade show, he added a quick hack to enable it to enter in the configuration of a buffer that the function that has analyzed the TFTP file was adopted. The end of the command with CTRL-Z said. They entered all the commands and if you press CTRL-Z, the file was analyzed and all errors have been displayed. It was not great to have lost a lot of typing, if an error occurred.


Some time later, the CLI has been modified to cause lines to run once you enter, instead of after the entry was CTRL-Z. Greg sentence that tells me that this change was pleased to see that I've barely noticed the change. My recollection distinctly remember that something has changed, but not yet managed to put my finger on exactly. The change in errors reported as soon as you enter them, had not been written by the entire buffer, so it was a good variety. This change would at some point before the end of 1990. There was no command history, interactive help, or ability to mount command.


The end of 1990 * Greg contracted rate with me at the CLI parser to build again. The intention was, the analyzer can not leave the router (called, was still IOS) and load it into a management station to retrieve, so that the Cisco configuration files have been analyzed. Eighteen months later, the team I had assembled (Rob Widmer, Brent Baccala, What Pete and I) has completed the new Cisco CLI, which was released in version 9.21. I remember that the first half of 1992, but it should be researched to verify.

During development, Rob, who brings the user code was to allow the full treatment decided to controls, was similar to the Unix shell (user interface) possible over time. The CLI implemented it CTRL-style used to edit command mode homeless. There was no way to manage multiple lines, so we decided to show the lines left and right, and use the characters "^ shift 'and' $ 'that the line had been moved. The lines were every keystroke, so that work on all screens painted.


While we were developing the new CLI, Bay Networks, Cisco's main competitor **, has been very active in sales and marketing activities related to the fact they had a menu interface and how their products easy to use. Managers and new people to buy more in history and there are difficult things for Cisco on this front. The problem with the menu systems is that you can not have a brief overview of the complete state of the device. You have or need to find your way through the menus to the status of certain parameters, which is very inefficient after a short period of time to find. Once you edit a configuration file for nearsighted, you can also learn the syntax and stop the menu.

Shortly after we released 9.21, marketing and sale of Bay Networks and Cisco's growth started slowly continue its momentum upward. If I tell people these days, you can try to blame me for the CLI. But we had a target we maintain backward compatibility. You can curse the CLI, but when he used to before 9.21, you will probably thank you for adding the functionality that exists today.


* I Chesapeake Computer Consultants at that time had begun. Greg and other Cisco has committed more than a job for me, but what I suggest California - something I was not interested in it. Silly me. Chesapeake is to become a leading training and consulting partner of Cisco. I left Chesapeake in March 2000 after receiving the system VLab started and released. Chesapeake has closed its doors in late 2001.

Cisco Technical Design Days

I attended a Cisco event yesterday titled "Cisco Tech Days." It was an all-day seminar by Cisco SEs on two areas of technology:

Advanced Campus Topics
Branch-WAN Topics

It was a good day of presentations (I stuck with the Advanced Campus track). The presenters are regional SEs, which means that some of the presentations are not as polished as if they were given by the corporate marketing folks. Having the local SEs do the presentations gives you an idea of who knows what in your area and often means that they are skipping a lot of the corporate marketing stuff in favor of the technical content (that's a good thing in my mind). A couple of the presenters in the Advanced Campus track were very good and a couple were so-so. But even in the so-so presentations, the slides included good content that was useful to me.

One of the presentations was on High Availability design, which I've seen at past Networkers. It is good to see it again, which helps me pick up on more nuances that I missed in prior viewings. This is an excellent topic since it covers excellent tips on network design as well as improving network availability. Ask your Cisco rep to get you a copy if you don't have access to the copy from the Networkers site.

The sessions started at 830am and ended at 5pm, when everyone's brain was full. A continental break fast and lunch were provided. Even better, it was all free. There are sessions still pending at some cities across the country. I tried to find the schedule and registration link on Cisco's web site, but had to resort to loading the announcement on our site: tech_days-v2_TD-com-ev1a.pdf. I received the announcement in an email blast to the region from our local Cisco office, so I presume that it is acceptable to make it public.

Refurbished Cisco

Refurbished equipment suffers from the perception it is false "below normal" or "out-of-date. In reality, little used, refurbished products are like new, but much more affordable. These are the seven myths that hinder buyers bargains. You fall for them!

Refurbished IT ≠ "damaged goods"
It's a myth that has been refurbished components are sold well before them. This is not the case. Contrary to second-hand that can be held for months or years and is sold as, refurbished products are in the possession of a buyer for a very short period of time before being returned to the seller. Mostly, these products have not been before the reopening, but it must again be sold as used equipment. The reason for the return of the defective area or simply the wrong model. Regardless of any imperfections are repaired or replaced before they have checked and returned to new condition.

Refurbished IT ≠ "minor"
The second myth is renovated about products they somehow less valuable. This results from confusion between used and refurbished (see above). Refurbished Equipment is a great value and even as a new element. By buying a refurbished product, you can get the latest technology from the most respected brands in the world without paying the sticker price. "It is as always very well on a car like new with about 100 miles on it over to buy a new car, only half of the resale value of the moment lost, stand out!

Refurbished IT ≠ "limited quantity"
The third myth is that you do not find what you want from a catering company. In contrast, IT companies are a serious work-up, as we list products that are available and generally have the largest selection of brands and models. Resale Network Systems maintains a large inventory of parts and accessories, and Cisco has links to resources around the world seek to any part you need.

Refurbished IT ≠ "poor quality"
Myth number four is a hypothesis that the lack of quality. In the case of NSC, each refurbished product is the same quality as a "brand new" product of the same model. The renovated building was returned for a minor reason - a reason, completely resolved by the company sold before the renovation. In fact, our products are refurbished fewer problems than a new model would be the same brand, have been since there's mistakes now discovered and treated before they are resold to an important market.

Refurbished IT ≠ "Out of date"
Another myth is that remanufactured products are outdated. This is incorrect. Refurbishing companies as we carry equipment updated to mid-cost. These products are often only a few months behind their counterparts brand new.

Refurbished IT ≠ "great argument"
A common myth is restored on the property, which is very valuable and not worth the trouble. In fact, you can buy new branded products are all the more painful, caused by companies that do not warrant or overall customer service. Refurbishment enterprises assure the quality of their products and generally offer comprehensive services.

Refurbished IT ≠ "default"
The most common myth is restored on the establishment, the product is defective. This is not logical ... No society worthy of the name would be broken to sell products to the era of the Internet. Each product is quality tested fully renovated and is fully resolved all problems and make the product, such as the new quality, before finding their way onto the shelves. In the unlikely event that the product would fail again, the buyer is still protected by the guarantee provided by the manufacturer or a company reorganization.

Saving Cisco Router Configuration

A team operating system sent an email today morning asked, is there a way to save configs to all devices on the network as a step in the safety net to lose if this configuration is registered, or if the power goes in one place. I took a look at NetMRI, an analysis of the problem was specific to this case. He began the timestamp for the moment that SNMP configuration has been changed and the time that the configuration was last saved. It creates a problem when a device to save the configuration timestamp later than the timestamp of the last.

Indeed, there were five units with configurations that have not been saved, so it was easy to take care of the problem without resorting to a network device with a 'write mem "command. NetMRI is an even easier way Ordering the set of devices to run in the exhibition. All it took was based on all the devices of the question, please click on the button to execute a command on it and give you, "write mem "the command to execute. I do not start with "copy", because it is a confirmation of the transfer request, a control input line required to run completely different. Executing the set of five devices only lasted a few minutes to install and run.

During the execution of storing five devices do not last very long is a manual process, it would not be much more significant savings of time before the instruments, in particular how to monitor this system and what have you done to . For more complex sets of commands, variables needed to be used in the commands to execute. My point is that the simple approach command execution does not always work. Sometimes you need a scripting language you determine the value of variables, such as an interface or an IP address can. A script may be necessary to collect and process data from the current configuration of the new set of commands to create the run on the device. That is one of NetMRI I have not seen in many other configuration items are made.

Cisco Router Will Play Flip Videos on Your TVPosted

All those people running around taking videos with their Flip video cameras can now see their handiwork appear on the big screen. Well, a bigger screen.

Cisco Systems, which acquired the Flip products in March, has come out with the FlipShare TV –- a set of products that helps people transfer their videos from a Flip camera to a PC and then to a television.

The FlipShare TV has three parts. First, there’s basically a small router that connects to a TV via composite cables (the red, white and yellow ones) or an HDMI cable for better quality. Then, there’s a USB stick that plugs into a home computer. Finally, there’s a remote control.

GRE Tunnels on a Cisco Router

One of my projects involved the configuration of GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) tunnels, encrypted by IPSec, between two locations. I was having some problems getting the tunnels to work properly, but now I’ve managed to resolve that problem, and the configuration is working well. Here’s some additional information on the problem and how it was finally corrected.

This was my first project using GRE tunnels. I’d used IPSec tunnels many times, and on many different platforms, but this time around we needed an interface that could be tracked for HSRP (Hot Standby Router Protocol) purposes, and until recently Cisco didn’t offer IPSec tunnel interfaces. (I just came across some documentation last night that indicated very recent releases of IOS offer this functionality.) So, the idea was to use GRE tunnels, track the GRE tunnels using HSRP for failover with another router, and encrypt the traffic using IPSec in transport mode.

The GRE tunnel configuration (scrubbed for sensitive data) looked something like this originally:

interface Tunnel0

description GRE tunnel to other location
ip address 192.168.254.1 255.255.255.252
tunnel source FastEthernet0/0
tunnel destination 172.31.254.1
crypto map tunnel-ipsec-map

Of course, there was an appropriately configured interface at the other end of the tunnel as well. The tunnels came up, and appeared to work just fine, until we added the keepalive statement. (The keepalive statement is required for the tunnel to report an actual up/down status, necessary for HSRP interface tracking.) Then they went down and stayed down.

A “debug tunnel” statement showed that the keepalives were being sent, but none were being received. Thinking perhaps the IPSec configuration was incorrect, I removed the “crypto map” statement from the tunnel interface. It still didn’t work.

After reviewing the configuration again, I began to suspect an MTU issue—the “show int tun0″ output listed an MTU of 1514. I consulted with a Cisco expert (recently obtained his CCIE), and he confirmed that it was most likely an MTU issue. So I modified the configuration to look like this:

New Cisco router | Cisco 877 Integrated Services Router

Today I put in production on my secondary Internet connection the new Cisco 877 Integrated Services Router. Since the previous model was quite older (C837), I’m pretty impressed by the power of this new machine, which features a fully managed 4 ports FastEthernet switch. Thanks to VLAN support, this router will even be able to survive to the current ADSL line, since I can easily configure one FastEthernet port to be the WAN interface.

All unmatched great features of the Cisco IOS 12.4T bring this router among ones best priced in the SME market.

9 Steps to Selecting Cisco IP Phone

Step One - What is a PBX or VoIP service provider you currently have? What is an IP phone when it is not compatible with the telephone system or service provider you use? With the advent of open-source PBX, and SIP service provider BYOD, it is easy to think that any IP phone works with any phone or service. Unfortunately, this is not the case before us in an IP phone, check with your mobile provider or system vendor to obtain a list of compatible IP phones.

Step Two - Who is the use of IP phones? According to the function of the job (or position) of the person, the IP phone, it needs a different and each is looking for something different on your phone. A manager, for example, want the latest and best IP phone with all the bells and whistles, while the reception can be affected only by the total number of calls they can handle both.

Step Three - What are the features and functionality makes this person needs the body /? Most people want the standard functions of a phone like call waiting, call forwarding, call parking, conference, etc. What you need to search in a speakerphone, a large screen and sidecar capacity for expansion. For example, if an employee is to make extensive use of hands-free functionality, you may want a Polycom IP telephone, because they are known for their high quality phones on sale.

Fourth stage - the number of incoming calls will get the person / day at a time? This is an important issue because they determine how much should be in line appearances recommended mobile. While the average office worker is expected 3 to 5 lines appearances, operators, managers and receptionists are usually necessary okay over 10 shows online.

Step Five - How often will the phone is used? If a person on the phone all day, they probably deserve a higher quality phone. Even if they do not deserve to be at a premium phone, mobile phone, high quality will last longer than the frequent use of a low standard telephone. In many ways, you get what you pay, make sure you buy the best quality of IP telephony for those in need.

Step Six - Do you need an IP phone with routing capabilities? Believe it or not, there are many offices where it can run only one Ethernet to each desktop. When this happens, both the desktop and the IP phone to share a single Ethernet connection. In this situation, you need an IP phone with two Ethernet ports RJ45. If your office has a LAN Voice Telephone Network (separate) set-up, then you need to run ethernet down on the desk for the IP phone and you use an IP phone one RJ45 Ethernet connection , agree.

Seventh step - the use of a Power over Ethernet are used in this regard? If you currently have (or plan) with Power over Ethernet, you get a phone supports the intellectual property that need Power over Ethernet. If you do not use Power over Ethernet and simple means of power, make sure you have an additional power outlet on more work to power the IP phone.

Step Eight - the protocol and codec does your service / support IP-PBX? Most IP phones on the market supports SIP and all the major voice codecs such as G.711, G.729, etc. Often, however, may help your provider of phone system or a single H.323, MGCP compatible or SCCP IP Phone or IP phone that supports GSM codec. Do not hang with an IP phone that is not compatible with your phone system and your voice, or a service.

Step Nine - What is your budget? Believe it or not, to IP phones from $ 40 to over $ 400 per unit area. Although the price has never been the most important factor in choosing an IP phone, it is important that you set a budget for your IP phones, because you do not want to spend more and it forces you, really a critical look at what features and functions are most important to you.

Cisco SPA525G Desktop IP Phone with WiFi, BlueTooth and More!

Cisco has released a new, 5-line IP phone, the SPA525G….and VoIPSupply has it first! This product breaks new ground in a number of areas which we will discuss in further detail here on the The VoIP Insider.

The Cisco SPA525G is quite similar in appearance to the popular Linksys SPA-9XX series, SIP desktop IP Phones. With the integration of the Linksys Small Business product line into Cisco’s own SMB product division, the SPA525G differs from Linksys IP phone products of the past in a number of areas.

First off, the SPA525G supports both SIP and Cisco’s proprietary SPCP protocol, used in the popular UC500. The phone makes use of CDP (Cisco Discovery Protocol) to determine if it is on a UC500 network or a SIP network. We have had an SPA525G in our lab for a few days, and have done some testing on the Linksys SPA9000, Trixbox and Digium’s Switchvox, all SIP based IP PBXs. The SPA525G seems equally at home on a SIP or Cisco proprietary platform. The SPA525G will support the Cisco UC500 feature set as well. Note: The SPA525G does not support the full Callmanager UC / Callmanager Express feature set, but is only intended for use with the Cisco UC500 or a SIP platform

The next surprising feature of the Cisco SPA525G is how it connects to the network. The phone has dual onboard ethernet ports with support for 802.3af Power Over Ethernet. In addition, the SPA525G has a built-in 802.11G WiFi client supporting multiple AP profiles, WiFi Protected Setup, WEP and WPA authentication/encryption. Wired or Wireless ethernet connectivity make the SPA525G a lot more versatile, and this feature is sure to be popular with users. In our testing the SPA525G quickly scanned for available WiFi networks, and was a snap to configure.

The Cisco SPA525G is also the only IP phone we are aware of that offers native support for BlueTooth. We easily paired the phone with BlueTooth headset products from Plantronics and Jabra without a hitch. If BlueTooth is not your thing, the phone also offers a built-in 2.5mm headset jack.

You will also notice a built in USB 2.0 port on top of the Cisco SPA525G phone. Today you can plug in any USB storage media and play MP3’s right on the phone with the built-in MP3 player….easily accessible via the soft-menu on the phone. You can also utilize the super bright color LCD display on the phone to display photos, similar to the LCD digital picture frames that have become popular these days.

Cisco has also included several built-in XML web applications, that allow you to pull local weather and news feeds and view that content right on the phone display.

The Cisco SPA525G also offers both a Personal Address Book and support for LDAP / XML Corporate Directory.

KC is currently taking customer pre-orders for the Cisco SPA525G phone. You can purchase this product or used cisco by Knowledge Computers.

Fortinet Fortimail 400B

Fortimail 400B is an appliance-based email security solution that helps secure email both at the protocol and content layers for inbound and outbound messaging. The appliance can be integrated into an existing SMTP architecture to protect one or more domains, or act as its own standalone server appliance.

Installation was very easy, we were up and running in minutes. The console itself is web-based and the configuration wizards made things easy for our testers. While most appliances in this category act as gateways for existing SMTP architectures, Fortimail can also be used as a standalone mail server, which is an excellent feature.


The web-based dashboard is nicely organised and easy to navigate. An interesting “first” for our lab was the fact that the administrative interface has a main menu button available for changing the theme for your GUI.

The Fortimail appliance has an excellent set of features, which are organised logically throughout the interface. The ability to control inbound and outbound messaging is very easy through a series of profiles, policies and granular configuration options that execute at the IP, domain and sender level or via message-specific options, such as filtering on attachments, URLs, sensitive data, etc. All the security and content management bells and whistles are here, including high availability and clustering.

Encryption can be set for gateway-to-gateway using TLS and this is policy-based. The granular enforcement of policies that can trigger on any number of messaging components is quite powerful. Our only gripe is that the content-filtering dictionaries are not pre-populated. However, you can add your own terms using pattern matching and regular expressions.

The help file included in the appliance was adequate, but we encountered several references to pages or links that were empty. However, the Fortinet website contains many useful support features and additional product documentation, white papers, etc.

Support is available free for 90 days and includes eight hours a day/five days a week phone and email support. Additional support packages are available.

Fortinet settles GPL violation suit

Security specialist Fortinet has agreed to provide some source code available, following allegations that it infringed on the GPL, the company Tuesday.
Earlier this month, will gpl-violations.org founder Harald Welte an injunction against Fortinet, banning companies that distribute their products to them with the terms of the GPL. The GPL or GNU General Public License is used by developers for the products they want to remain freely available under license to other programmers in accordance with the ideals of free software movement.

Welte claimed that Fortinet had not only abused the code under GPL, but it also tries to hide the use of GPL code by using cryptographic techniques.


Fortinet has decided to send the source code of Linux kernel under GPL and other components to provide any interested party. The code is available upon request for the cost of distribution, from the Fortinet website. The company also agreed to amend its license to the GPL with all Fortinet include shipments. The settlement agreement also stipulates that no Fortinet partners are subject to prosecution.

This is the latest in a series of victories for the GPL-violations.org project. Since the project began in 2004, Welte has negotiated more than 30 off-court settlements.

Used Cisco Choice

It’s important to understand the difference between the types of used equipment before making a purchase, particularly the difference between gently-used (or refurbished) and “as is” used equipment.

Used IT equipment that is sold “as-is”:

* was removed from service for a serious performance deficiency.
* is resold without anything being done to improve it.
* comes with no warranty attached to it.
* probably doesn’t function most of the time.


It is highly recommended to AVOID AS-IS EQUIPMENT for your business.

Used Cisco equipment that is remarketed as “gently used” or “refurbished”:

* is often surplus equipment or returned under warranty for a variety of reasons.
* is akin to “Grade A” or “like new”.
* is thoroughly inspected and application-tested upon receipt.
* is carefully reset to factory default configurations/specifications.
* comes with a standard full-replacement warranty and extended warranty options.
* should function good as new in any network system.

Many companies make the mistake of getting caught up in the price vs. total cost debate. They confuse the difference between low price of acquisition and low cost of ownership. One involves quick, short term gains, while the other offers longer term returns. A business that requires refurbished/gently-used equipment creates a release valve for their budget. Buyers and users of used Cisco equipment report up to 90 percent savings compared to list-price when purchasing used products.

It is obviously important to work with a reputable vendor like NSR when purchasing used IT equipment. Don’t just look for the lowest price and ignore the trust factor: it may likely end up costing more over time. Be wary of items that are significantly cheaper from one vendor compared to another, and always inspect any low-ball quotes received. Ask questions about confusing terminology and talk to a real person on the phone if possible.

In the classical category, wireless router, it has four LAN ports of a similar color on the back of the unit. Unlike her, and a color disparate WAN port you are approved for Wide Area Network Connect. It is most often used if you have access to the Internet via WiFi He has a small antenna too. The option, which could transfer data depends on the brand, you want to use. But it is very even cover a large house.

The brands that offer this feature

Many companies that offer network devices in the foyer of this product on the market. You can search for brands such as D-Link, Linksys, TP-Link and Net deciding transmission. The majority agreed with the WPA encryption technology and firewall security for hackers to enter your wireless system must be checked.

Cisco to kill Linksys brand

In a roundtable with the European press, Mr. John Chambers, the chairman and chief executive officer of Cisco, has confirmed the “end of life” of the Linksys name.

The Linksys brand will be replaced by the new and redesigned Cisco branding.

According to UberPulse:

This decision follows Cisco’s move last April to make it easier for Linksys resellers to add Cisco products to their offerings and vice versa.

Also, just a few weeks ago, Cisco created a new division solely focused on the SMB market and headed by Rick Moran, formerly marketing chief of several Cisco communications applications like the unified communications portfolio, Cisco IPICS, Cisco Small Business Systems (Linksys One), TelePresence, Business Video and Physical security.

On Cisco’s decision to integrate consumer products into the Cisco brand, John Chambers noted that the reason that the Linksys brand name was kept was due to it being better known in the US. However, the advantage diminishes on the global consumer market, resulting in “very little advantage in [keeping it]“.

It is clear that Cisco plans a very aggressive move into consumer markets in the coming year or two.

Cisco Data Center 3.0?

Just as Web 2.0 has become a buzzword for the next generation of the Internet, Data Center 3.0 is certainly a smartly coined marketing term. To learn more, you can check out this three-minute video from Cisco.

But in my opinion, you’re better off reading this article. If you’re anything like me, your head will be spinning by the end of the video from all the big marketing words, and you won’t know much more than when you started.

So, what is Data Center 3.0 (DC 3.0) really? Here’s a snapshot:

DC 3.0 is a Cisco initiative to join servers, the network, and applications together, facilitating efficiencies and increasing benefits. Cisco has dubbed it “the heartbeat of Cisco.”
DC 3.0 facilitates server, network, and application virtualization. It combines virtualization with the goal of automating the data center.
DC 3.0 is a plan for the future — this initiative will run from 2007 to 2010 — so you won’t have to worry about upgrading to Data Center 4.0 by Christmas.
This is a plan with partners involved; because data centers only contain Cisco devices, Cisco must work with its partners to make DC 3.0 a reality.
DC 3.0 is a vision made up of many Cisco software and hardware products. There’s a reason that Cisco has been buying all those software companies.
And yet, this still doesn’t really explain DC 3.0.Let’s try to clarify the big picture. Here are some of the many products that currently make up the DC 3.0 initiative:

VFrame Data Center orchestration platform: VFrame is a $60,000 1U Red Hat Linux server with software that allows you to automate server provisioning. This server can talk to the SAN and the LAN to quickly create servers on the fly. It will be interesting to see how this server fits in with virtualization initiatives from Microsoft and VMware/EMC.

Smart Call Home: This service feature allows Cisco routers to “call home” when there’s an issue. This seems like a great feature that could really improve runtime, but it also has some frightening security aspects. This service is part of Cisco SMARTnet and will initially only be available on Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series switches and routers. The service comes with a Web portal to check the status of your automatically generated TAC ticket. I really like the automation of this service.
Channel partner specializations: Look for Cisco resellers to say that they’re “Data Center 3.0 certified.”

For more information, check out the recently announced list of Data Center 3.0 initiatives. However, keep in mind that this is a three-year vision, so there will be plenty of related products coming out in the future.

Four reasons to consider the CCDE

I’m considering pursuing the new CCDE certification, and I think you should consider it as well. Here are four reasons to think about it:

Unlike a CCNP, CCDP, or MCSE certification, the CCDE doesn’t have a long list of tests you must take. You only have to take one written and one hands-on exam.
For those of us who enjoy designing complex networks instead of tweaking and troubleshooting complex network routing or security, the CCDE may be something that interests you more than other certifications.

Cisco has done a great job representing, improving, and marketing the CCIE. Because of this, I think the CCDE will become highly recognizable, just as the CCIE is today.

The CCDE proves that you can design some of the most complex and advanced networks in the world today. The documentation of this skill can be invaluable to your career.

However, don’t jump the gun: Make sure you have the recommended design experience on large networks, get ready to prepare for some grueling tests, and make sure you’re willing to pay a much higher price than other certifications — both in time and in dollars.

Juniper's relationship with Packet Design

In Newsletter 26 October, we noted that the most common rumor we heard was, was acquired by Juniper Riverbed would. In this issue, we find that for a number of reasons, we do not assume that Juniper would Riverbed. We explained, for example, to sell in the service, but certainly not Riverbed is first a rapid business-focused companies. In contrast, DNA Juniper clearly in the market for service providers.

Part of the agreement, Juniper announced that with Packet Design is the kind of partnership with OEM direct sales Juniper Packet Design Route Analytics does not sell products. announced as part of its announcement, as well as Juniper, they offer a platform for spatial development called Juno. Packet Design Route Analyzer product is one of the first solutions, which lives in the space of Juno.

Contrary to rumors of the acquisition of Riverbed, Juniper recently announced relationship with Packet Design is very much sense. This follows because Packet Design Route Analytics produces some of the challenges that occur in very large networks, targeted - both corporate and service provider.

For example, any of the products Packet Design Route Analytics for professionals is precisely to model the evolution of the network before their implementation, to allow. Another function of these products is to provide visibility, analysis and diagnosis of problems that arise in the position of the signal. To do this, have an analytical solution route has an understanding of how IP networks deliver exactly the application traffic. This requires continuous monitoring in real time, creating and maintaining a map of all roads and network-wide IP traffic flows passing through these roads. This implies that the solution analysis route must be notified in a position, any change in the lanes is controlled by the host and IP routing protocols.

We said that this relationship makes sense in part because networks are increasingly complex to administer Packet Design Route Analytics Products, Juniper understands the complexity and definitely large and complex networks.

The ads are part of Juniper interesting because they show that, despite the impression that it takes a lot of innovation in network. To reinforce this concept is a package design Be one of the panels at the next Jim Interop Conference in New York. The panel is titled "Break Through networking technologies. If you are to be at the conference, try to attend the panel, as it should be very revealing.

Cisco still open to IBM partnership

Cisco Systems partner tries to major server vendors, a few years ago with its own blade servers this year and is always open to a partnership with IBM, "said President and CEO John Chambers on Tuesday.

"I remain convinced that the work on behalf of IBM with us. The door is always open," Chambers told the audience on the company's financial analyst conference office at the headquarters in San Jose, California. This annual event covered a wide range of topics and leaders of the company showed "reflection on various topics.

IBM announced earlier this year an agreement in which they are switches and routers Cisco rival Juniper Networks to resell.

Chambers and other executives spent much of the day, analysts estimate that Cisco has a window of opportunity now to be the key IT and communications provider to the growing importance of virtualization, collaboration and video. An important step in this direction has been recently announced a partnership with the company EMC and VMware. Under a joint venture called the Acadia is the integration of their systems and EMC storage management software with Cisco UCS (Unified Computing System) architecture with VMware virtualization software provides.

against this, Chambers of Cisco believes a central role in data storage products plant can not be realized, "he said. If it could just as firmly established a partnership with a platform by the computer company, Cisco has not developed its own servers, "said Chambers.

Analysts at the event said they believe Chambers is sincere about its willingness to work with IBM to work. The two companies have much in common, as companies adapt their customers and Cisco products in the supply of IBM, "said Mark Sue of RBC Capital Markets.

But the bridge between Cisco and any other major server vendors have been burned are: Hewlett-Packard, say once a close partner of Cisco, analysts said. Cisco UCS was presented earlier this year, close competition with HP Business Server Core and HP announced last month to acquire 3Com, Cisco to expand its competitors in the networking.

Also on Tuesday, Chambers said Cisco provided any stage of its recent struggle to win shareholders of Norwegian companies Tandberg video systems.

October 1, Cisco announced an agreement with Tandberg Board of the Company for approximately $ 3 billion for purchase. After some signals major shareholders thought the offer was too low and does not guarantee the company for the vote needed 90 percent of the shares on the first Cisco defended their offer and said it might abandon the case, if forced, but later raised its offer to 3.4 billion dollars.

But Cisco's leadership has seen everything that comes and mapped the different scenarios, Chambers during a press conference at noon, financial analysts said.

"We went with her not knowing exactly the challenges ahead. ... He goes as planned, "said Chambers.

The acquisition, which was obtained last week a little over 90 percent of the necessary support to access Cisco technical talent Scandinavian and five senior high, "he said. "Their management team is allowed a total of the best management team, we have had since the acquisition of Crescendo in 1993," said Chambers. This acquisition in the frames as Mario Mazzola Luca Cafiero, Cisco technology for years to come has formed.

Cisco's management can not be known exactly how the drama of acquisition would play but it is probably no surprise that when shareholders demanded more Tandberg, said analyst Sam Wilson, JMP Securities.

Chambers expects to Cisco to buy more foreign companies in the coming years because the two companies should invest in countries where it sells many products due to the high potential of technology outside the U.S. he said. India and China graduates about 600,000 courses of engineering each year, against 60,000 in the United States, "he said. "We have to go where the talent and that is where the start-up is," said Chambers.
