Common Mistake with Access Lists

Another interesting site to help us on our access list usage. As the author says it, “A simple explanation to proper access list usage with non standard byte boundary masks (something other than 255). Lots of people screw this up”.

Revealing the Type-7 Encoded Information from the Configuration without Using External Tools

Found this interesting info from Cisco:

To view the unencrypted password 7 hash of a pre-shared key, use the “do show key chain command” from config mode.

Example:

Router (config) #key chain LIGHT

Router (config-keychain) #key 718

Router (config-keychain-key) #key-string 7 11192616193C233850012E3D2B2725711D

Router (config-keychain-key) #do show key chain LIGHT Key-chain decrypt:

key 1 — text “decrypted_password”

accept lifetime (always valid) – (always valid) [valid now]

send lifetime (always valid) – (always valid) [valid now]

Terry Slattery – the very first Cisco CCIE in history

So who really was the very first Cisco CCIE in history?

Terry Slattery

Terry was helping lead CLI development and training as a consultant to Cisco in 1993 when he first heard about the CCIE program and inquired about participating. Brad Wright (the CCIE program manager) told Terry what he needed to do.

So Terry quickly re-worked his schedule, took the written CCIE qualification test, attended the Cisco troubleshooting class and setup a time for the hands-on test, all within two weeks.

In those days, the hands-on test was two days.
One day of build-it and one day of fix-it after they break it.

Terry passed the hands-on test, designing and building the network in one day, then fixing the things that Stuart Biggs (the lab test creator) broke in just over half a day.

Terry Slattery was awarded the third number – CCIE # 1026, in August 1993, the first non-Cisco person to achieve the CCIE and the first person to pass both the written CCIE test as well as the hands-on CCIE lab test, making Terry Slattery the first real CCIE.

A bunch of Cisco employees soon followed and many of them are still working at Cisco.

Something like five of the first ten CCIEs work in the same building at Cisco.

---

Today, Terry Slattery is the Founder and CTO of Netcordia. Terry invented NetMRI, which enables organizations to maximize network effectiveness and ensure compliance by utilizing built-in expert rules to assess, audit, and proactively detect hidden and harmful problems throughout any multi-vendor infrastructure.As a consultant to Cisco who helped lead development of the Cisco IOS CLI, as well as having earned the first real Cisco CCIE number in history, CCIE# 1026, Terry Slattery has become a very revered historical figure within the world of Cisco networking. Stuart Biggs was awarded the second number – CCIE # 1025, because afterall, Stuart created both the CCIE written test as well as the CCIE lab test. Was awarded the second number – CCIE # 1025, because after all, Stuart created both the CCIE written test as well as the CCIE lab test. In summary:

CCIE# 1024 – Cisco Lab

CCIE# 1025 – Stuart Biggs

CCIE# 1026 – Terry Slattery

The history of Cisco CLI

I don’t think many people know the history of the Cisco CLI and the impact it has had on the industry. Other companies are emulating it, as evidenced in recent articles on the topic. Network engineers typically become experts in the Cisco CLI first, then move to other vendor gear, so it makes sense for companies to emulate it. Brad Reese, who writes for Network World’s Cisco Subnet, did an article on the topic on October 5, 2007, Appealing to CCIEs, hardware vendors copy Cisco’s CLI and NetFlow to get into Cisco accounts .

New Security Certification in 2008

Two new certifications have recently been announced, and it is likely that their respective acronyms will soon find their way onto the resumes of information security professionals.

ISACA recently announced the creation of CGEIT (Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT) certification, as did SCIPP with their SCIPP security certification.
