wow^-^

Look at the strange relation of number of people scoring 1000 whilst questions and topics become harder (at least I’ve heard and read so - took no exam myself for some time).



Maybe/hopefully Cisco came to the conclusion at last that they might have to change questions and sims more often or drastically enlarge question pool because they’ve finally found no way to get rid of the various braindump providers and ’sponsoring’ test centers (Personaly I believe the braindump questions *are* stolen).



So the logical consequence would be to re-check people with obvisously ’strange’ score/time relations in exams passed and clean up the certified’s database as that’s an option as Cisco as the issuing vendor of the certificates will surely have enough options to enforce their policies (*anybody* signed prior testing). Even if some judge might condemn them to repay exam fees if proove of abusal isn’t that waterproof they stand chance to partly reestablish the certifactions’ value (which definately dropped due to the lot of ‘no-clue’-certifieds).



Btw: How did You reach all the 1000’s ? Are you worried about a rehearsal because you’ve no clue about what you’re certifying ?

Dear Friends,

I need your help about these questions :

- How to become a Cisco TAC ?
- What is Cisco Diagnostic Program and how we can have this tool ?
- How we can find technical specification for repairing Cisco (specially 2600 and AS5300 series)
- Is there any Cisco Tac can help us ? (send me private message pls)

Thank you for your usefull information…

Regards

For Q1, you wanna be a Cisco TAC Engineer? You may very well look for an outsourcing company that helps Cisco (most of TAC are outsourcers), or just look into the Cisco web page under Career Opportunities…

Q2, I guess you mean the Output Interpreter/Error Decoder. You can find it in CCO, as long as you are a registered user, though it is on-line only, not downloadable.

Q3, I don’t really think you can find such info publicly available… better to RMA your boxes to Cisco and have them replaced.

Cheers,

Nice try cooldude, but that procedure is for most routers running IOS, not switches.

Nobel, I found the answer by typing 4 words into google and clicking on 2 links.

You are better off trying to use the internet as a search engine than relying on someone in a forum. If after a search on the net and cisco.com you can’t find the answer, then you might consider going to a forum.

Check out how easy it is. Go to google and type in —– cisco 1900 password recovery—- look at the choices that come up and it is likely that you will find the answer within a click or 2. For this particular situation click on the second link from the top and then it is self explanatory from there.

I am not trying to be condescending, just giving tips for future problems you might have, you will probably get a faster and more reliable answer from a source like Cisco.com.

I did it. I finally did it. I’ve got a Cisco CallManager 4.1(3) server running natively on a Dell Optiplex 270GX. Now, I’m not talking about the old registry hack forcing you to install Windows 2000, hack the registry, and then put the Cisco CallManager software on top of it. Doing this causes a host of problems because the base windows operating system does not have the correct services running and permissions set.

  I’m talking about a hack that allows you to install the Cisco CallManager Windows image straight from the CD-ROM, setting all the correct permissions and giving you a working Cisco CallManager on a non-MCS server. Here’s what I did:

  Step 1: Download a Windows utility called FDIMAGE.EXE. This is typically used to create floppy boot disks from disk images for BSD/Linux. You can get this utility from here.

  Step 2: Pop in in the CallManager Hardware Detect CD-ROM (Disk 1) into your PC - sorry, I can’t give this one out

  Step 3: Put in a blank floppy disk

  Step 4: Open a command prompt and type “fdimage d:\bootimg.bin a:” this copies the boot image from the CD-ROM to the floppy disk

  Step 5: On the floppy disk, edit the autoexec.bat file (I’m having flashbacks to the MS-DOS days)

  Step 6: Find the line in the autoexec.bat file that says “s:\tools\systype s:\tools\sssksys.ini” This line is right before the boot process does the hardware check to see what sort of server you have

  Step 7: Hit enter after the above line and add the following two lines:

  set XIMAGE=x345

  goto IBMx345

  Step 8: Save the file

  Step 9: Boot off the floppy disk and put the Hardware Detect CD into the drive. Follow the wizard to blow the Windows 2000 image onto the non-MCS machine. It will prompt you for the OS Disk 3 (I’m using DVDs - it’s DVD #2 of the OS install for me).

  Step 10: After Windows comes online, you’ll have to install your platform specific video/netcard/etc… drivers

  Step 11: Pop in the Cisco CallManager CDs and proceed as normal! This rocks!

  Of course, this is only in a lab environment. The great Cisco powers that be would definitely frown upon a TAC support call from a Cisco CallManager running on a desktop PC.
