Frame Relay Configurition

What's up guys? welcome back in another tutorial . Today we will learn how to configure a Frame Relay connection. As you all know Frame Relay is the newest technology in WAN. So what I want from you is to start up Packet Tracer if you don't have it you can download it from HERE . After that set up the network topology in the video and start following the instructions in the video. Then save your work and email it to me on eng.ahmed.hilal@gmail.com , don't forget to write your name and ID in the email and write Frame Relay Exercise in the Subject for 5 extra marks. THE DEAD LINE is Sat December 8 by 3:00 pm. If you have any question leave it in the comment below .

Best Regards & have a nice weekend  :)

Troubleshooting Incoming ISDN Call

Hello trainees , today we will learn how to troubleshoot an incoming ISDN call so you don't need to contact Cisco Systems' TAC (Technical Assistance Centre )

NetSim Video Tutorial - Beginner vs Advanced Mode

This NetSim tutorial explains the difference between using Beginner Mode (Console) and Advanced Mode (Telnet) when interacting with devices in Boson's NetSim Network Simulator.

Please, have a look to this video and leave your comment below if you have further questions.

Basic ISDN Configuration

Hi trainee, today we're doing a practical lesson for the basic ISDN configuration. You have two options to complete this lesson either you use a real equipments or a simulation programme.

NetSim Cisco simulation software!

The Boson NetSim Network Simulator is an application that simulates Cisco Systems' networking hardware and software and is designed to aid the user in learning the Cisco IOS command structure. 

NetSim utilizes Boson's proprietary Network Simulator, Router Simulator® and EROUTER® software technologies, along with the Boson Virtual Packet Technology® engine, to create individual packets. These packets are routed and switched through the simulated network, allowing NetSim to build an appropriate virtual routing table and simulate true networking. Other simulation products on the market do not support this level of functionality.

Try to download this software from the link above and test it with some WAN configurations. Send one exercise to this email attamimi.m@gmail.com to see your work and assess you!

We used to ask: Should you get ISDN or ADSL?

Integrated Services Digital Network and DSL both offer options for reliably accessing the Internet over telephone lines at rapid speeds. Unlike standard dial-up connections, ISDN and DSL allow you to simultaneously use the telephone and Internet on the same line. They're more frequently available in cities than small towns or rural areas. However, a comparison of ISDN and DSL reveals significant differences in speed, equipment needs, cost and other factors.

What is Packet Switching?

Packet switching is similar to message switching using short messages. Any message exceeding a network-defined maximum length is broken up into shorter units, known as packets, for transmission; the packets, each with an associated header, are then transmitted individually through the network. The fundamental difference in packet communication is that the data is formed into packets with a pre-defined header format (i.e. PCI), and well-known "idle" patterns which are used to occupy the link when there is no data to be communicated.
