As you may know, I will be the lead instructor for our New CCIE R&S Advanced Technologies Class. The class runs online, and will start Monday April 11th at 07:00 PDT (GMT -7). If you have an All Access Pass subscription or purchased the live version of the R&S ATC in the past you can attend the live class free of charge by contacting sales. Space is limited so if you want to attend the live version you need to contact sales ASAP.
The class will run least 10 days (not consecutively), but may run as long as 12 – 15 days. Each class day will run about 8 hours, but may run as long as 10 – 12 hours. Right now the length of the class is open ended, because there is *so much* content that I’m going to be covering. I don’t want to rush through topics or skip key topics just to make the class fit into a normal template. Class length will also it depend on how many questions I get from students during the class.
The purpose of this post is to announce that I am taking student submitted topic requests for the class. If there is something that you’re having trouble understanding during your studies, or have found something that is not covered in enough depth in other classes or products, submit your requests here as a comment, or directly to me via email at bmcgahan@ine.com.
I look forward to seeing you in class!
Summer was in full swing, and it was over 105 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Bob was told it was a “dry heat”, but he thought “so is my oven”. Needless to say, Bob was glad to be in the data center, where the temperature and humidity controls kept it very cold. He had been asked to setup up a basic route-map with BGP, and here is the diagram he worked from.
The goal, was to modify BGP, so that all traffic going towards the 1.1.1.0 network (which is sourced from AS1), traveling either from or through AS23, would only use the 13.0.0.0/24 segment (between R3 and R1), and not use the 10.0.0.0/24 segment (between R2 and R1) as a transit path.
Bob reviewed some of the BGP topics he had recently learned. Here is the list he made of possibilities: Continue Reading
Join us Friday, June 25th at 11AM Pacific / 2PM Eastern for another installment in the Open Lecture Series.
The topic that will be covered is Privilege Levels and Role Based CLI.
We look forward to seeing you there. Seats are limited.
I just returned from an awesome Security bootcamp in Raleigh, and am looking forward to more there in the future. Core knowledge is still alive and well in the Security LAB exam, as well as troubleshooting, which is integrated as part of the configuration section.
Often times, what seem like complex network troubleshooting scenarios are caused by overlooking simple fundamental components of the technology. Join me on Tuesday, June 8th as we discuss developing the Tier 1 knowledge that you need to know for the CCIE Security LAB, as well as strategy that may be used to continually build your base of knowledge as you prepare for your CCIE certification.
This v-Seminar is open to the public, and will be held online at

Hello everyone,
We are excited to announce that our CCIE Voice Core Knowledge Simulator has been released! You can try out a sample here. So far, the first 100 questions have been released, and will be followed shortly by additional updates.
The simulation is designed to help prepare candidates for the newly added “open ended” section of the 3.0 Voice CCIE Lab Exam. This new section of the exam consists of four computer based, short-answer questions which candidates have 30 minutes to complete.
The simulator is designed to:
* Pinpoint your areas of weakness on Core Knowledge
* Provide study documents to improve in these weak areas
* Practice with question interpretation and your short-answer responses
Enjoy the questions, and as always, good luck with your studies!

IOS IPS is fair game for the CCIE Security and CCIE R/S labs. With IOS IPS now using v5 signatures, (just like the sensor appliance), the ability to setup up IOS is not as simple, but very important. The intention of this post is to provide a streamlined process to use as a jumpstart into IOS IPS. For full details, examples and explanations, please refer to our lab workbooks. Both RS and Security cover the topic. Lets get started!
First, we need a place for IPS configuration files to call home. IPS wants a folder. Lets make a directory on the router flash. Optionally if there were other IOS file systems present, we could use those writable file systems as well.
R6#mkdir ips Create directory filename [ips]? Created dir flash:/ips R6#
We are putting the final touches together for the CCSP bootcamp that is launching soon. (PS, it is going to ROCK! 
) As I was going through the demo’s on L2 security, I was reminded of how this topic is often an Achilles heel for many CCIE candidates, both R/S and Security.
This blog post is to refresh your memories and provide some examples for layer 2 security on the Catalyst switch. We will begin with DHCP snooping. Continue Reading
Feeling smart? Give these Security CCIE core knowledge questions a try. Click here for part 3 of this series.
Let us know what you feel the answers are, and good luck!

Based on the example below, what commands will bob have the ability to use within the IOS?
