| when will you take the test next time? We can study together if you like. Some people have been taken 3 or 4 times, and still not passed yet, believe it or not.
Did you learn some from the experience? like what you should have done but you didn't, what's your weakness and it's on test many times.. so you would have a better plan for the next time.
SO Don't give up! | |

| Worrywarm,
J. Dali,
Seriously, you guys need to buckle down and retake the exam Asap. Think about it, this test itself should not be harder however, studying will be 3x harder. Your test results should reflect the weak areas. So break them down then build them bck up.
You will know when your ready, you will feel it. You both should try exam Essentials as a good review, it worked for me, also check out some overviews from this forum.
"by failing to prepare, you prepare to fail"
Don't fall prey again, it's not good for the psychie for you to fail a second time.
Good luck,,,

| Ok, can anyone help with links to info on these that I missed:
1. ISDN Legacy DDR - ADVANTAGES/DISADVANTAGES Why DDR Legacy on CCNA? Isnt this ccnp material?
2. OSPF troubleshooting Area/PID config examples ? ...  )
3. TCP segments/sequencing/3 way HS ...
Duh, www.cisco.com ...

| I'm not sure which book/what material you are studying on, but all of these should be included in the CCNA exam, at least I meet them in the book. | |

| On many occassions I've had to retake exams. I recently failed an exam by 9 points. I think the best thing to do while taking an exam is to think about the questions you don't know and if you don't pass, look up the subject matter. Also look at your breakdown on your test and focus on the areas you are weak on.
Seems like you already use this and it should help you next time around | |

| Joe Dali, since I'm studying on DDR, here are the difference between Legacy DDR and dialer profile from the book,
Allows a physical interface to be shared by many logical DDR interfaces, which
provides flexibility in how you set up and use your DDR connections.
¡ö Allows you to share multiple dialup interfaces to back up multiple primary
WAN circuits.
¡ö Do not need a separate dialer map command for each protocol/destination
combination, which reduces the complexity of your DDR configuration.
Hope this helps! | |

| That does help thank you, that is on the test word for word pretty much ... BUT ARE YOU SURE THAT IS LEGACY DDR INFO? Sounds liek generic DDR info? | |

| Note When you use a Basic Rate Interface (BRI) for a dial backup, neither of the B channels can be used while the interface is in a standby mode. In addition, when a BRI is used as a backup interface and the BRI is configured for Legacy DDR, only one B channel is usable. Once the backup is initiated over one B channel, the second B channel is unavailable. When the backup interface is configured for Dialer Profiles, both B channels can be used. | |

| all the 3 points are the advantages of dialer profile over legacy DDR, that is legacy DDR's disadvantages.
As to what you mentioned:
Note When you use a Basic Rate Interface (BRI) for a dial backup, neither of the B channels can be used while the interface is in a standby mode. In addition, when a BRI is used as a backup interface and the BRI is configured for Legacy DDR, only one B channel is usable. Once the backup is initiated over one B channel, the second B channel is unavailable. When the backup interface is configured for Dialer Profiles, both B channels can be used.
Then the command dialer load-threshold 1-255????
This command allows you to perform load balancing across the two B-channels on your BRI. The load threshold is specified as a number from 1 to 255. 1 represents 1 percent, 128, 50 percent, and 255, 100 percent load. In other words, this value is not a percentage. Once the load on the interface reaches this value, your router will bring up the second B-channel. You can measure the load in both directions (either), as traffic comes into the interface (inbound), or as traffic leaves the interface (outbound). | |

| Look up the command "ppp multilink" for more info on using both channels.
