VTP Configuration Sim

how would you find the default gateway if running config isn’t available?

sh ip default-gateway?

if sh run does not work
sh cdp neighbors detail some helpful + sh ip int
and try to ping router.

Or traceroute possible…

wr term?

I guess you could also use #sh startup-config also. Btw, I didn’t realise sh ip default-gateway was an actual command as it’s not in the ? list and also not tabbed.. you have to write it out in full but it does work.

I had this sim today. SH RUN working properly on old switch.
And I’ve passed this exam. Thanks to 9tut!

@jon or others

Just wondering, which switch does “show running-config” does’nt work? is it on the old or new switch? if it’s on the new switch, why bother showing the “sh run comaqnd? any thoughts?
Thanks

Does copy run start work?

the VTP sim was on my ICND2 test today.

use sh cdp neighbours
then

sh cdp entry router

use sh cdp neighbours
then

sh cdp entry router

The question was confusing today.It says For the switch host address, you should use the first available IP address on the management subnet. And the management ip was 192.168.127.130 255.255.255.224 and the default gateway address was 192.168.127.129 How can we use the first available IP address in this question.Is the question right?

Getting ready to do my ICND1, need some tips on what is there to know about the exam.

@assbc

255.255.255.224 = 30 host IP per subnet

192.168.127.128 network

1st IP 192.168.127.129
2nd IP 192.168.127.130

192.168.127.131 will be the first vailable since the first two are taken.

Hey guyz if u want ccna voice latest dumps call me at 03348527149.
dumps price only 1500 rs.
i am also doing ccna voice.

Guys, just wondering, why is building_1 not a server? anybody made the switch as a VTP server on their test?

This question was on my ICND2 yesterday

@Radiant9- as per ccna2b question, did you make the other switch as a server?
Thanks!

The question said that it should be a client

Hi all ! I passed my ICND1 +2 last days with 899 and 874 points. These trainings helps me really to understand the principles of questions in the certification. Now I´m looking for to get CCNP. Thanks to 9tut for your excellent work ! Good stuff !

@Anonynous @9tut
my question was regarding to the old switch-building-1 not the new switch! I know that the new switch should be a client! the old switch as per packet is client, so my question is will you make the old-buliding1 switch a server?
Thanks!

The building one switch is already configured, so you dont need to make any change there

When configuring VLAN’s and assigning their ip address do we have to also do the ‘no shutdown’ command. on the ‘VTP configuration sim’ switch 1 which was already configured had not had the ‘no shutdown’ cammand under its VLAN1 interface. But in the explanation above it clearly states it.

——————————————-

Had this question today and solve it 😉
Pass the ICND2
Thank you 9tut for the work

I took the test a couple of days ago and got this question. I knew how to configured the router with plenty of practice in Packet Tracer.
But the cmd – show running-config didn’t work nor did show default-gateway, show vtp status. I failled the test. I know it’s because I missed this question. Maybe there was something wrong with the lab.
The multiple choice questions were on there and I am confident I got those right.

@Alex

Maybe we could use wr term instead of show run??? If not we could run show cdp neighbors detail on 1st switch to find R1’s address, ie the default gateway address.
Then run same command on 2nd switch to find the Vlan1 ip address of building1 switch.
If show vtp status is disabled, maybe we could use show vtp domain on building1 switch?

I only have packet tracer so not all these commands work there and I’m not sure if you can use them in the sims, but there has to be commands to find out the info and I think these commmands would work.

Anybody agree with my commands or know what to use, I have my exam soon, thanks.

@Dave – thanks for the info. I took the exam again and received this exact same question. This time, I realized what I did wrong from the other test. Something very common sense…enable. 🙂 Duh!!
I can’t believe I forgot that step. So, of course after enable, show VTP, then the information was provided. Also, show running-config worked as well to get the other info I needed to complete the lab. Finished the lab portion of the test in five minutes. Next time, I’ll try not to think too much.
Good luck on your test!

Had this exact question in my ICND2 today albeit using different IP adresses.
Passed the exam, thanks 9tut!

Hey do no shut vlan1 on “vtp server switch” I spend like 20mins and no way..after exam. Had vlan1 on new switch down/down, any other suggestion?

Passed ICND-2 today – marks 888
Guys be careful, the questions have been slightly changed. I got only one SIM-VTP domain,
IP address: first available one, rest was similar to 9tut
No EIGRP – No ACL 2 SIM
I got 1 question of OSPF which i barely did successfully.
best of luck to you all.

@Hani – Thanks for the heads up, I take my ICND2 tomorrow morning..Wish me luck!!

Passed today – 902
Had this question on my exam – first available IP address
Quite a few IPv6 questions
A few OSPF questions

@ Gibran, Congrats

just passed icnd2 with 916

had the exact same question.

a quite a lot of switching

Passed ICND2 today with 944!! I had this same VTP sim on my test. This is the only SIM I had to configure on my test

Hi all and thanks 9tut, this lab has been very helpfull

Also if some1 has the ICND2 exam dump please email it to me at spirit.986@live.com, I am planning to take the exam next week
Thanks

this site is outdated, I just took my ICND2 exam and the pool of questions is change., but I pass with my own knowledge

i had this question on my ICND2 today…. i could not get to priviledged mode on building_1 switch…. thus couldn’t retrieve any ip addresses for anything. tried all the show commands on building_2, nothing poped up….gave up 4 questions. 🙁

i had also had couple of frame-relay questions…. KNOW THOSE SHOW commands….. also KNOW the debug and show commands and what they do!!!! i had multiple questions on those

Hi Guys! Can anyone tell me where i can download the cisco router ios for GNS3 purpose as am preparing my iins. My e-mail: nissy357@yahoo.com Kind regards.

Guys!! Whatever you do in answering the questions in the exam. Do it quick, precise and get the normal questions right BEFORE you jump into a lab, and you are better lucky your heart is not beating rushing blood up your head, plus the screen/eye over concentraion, trying to drag your tail from getting bit by the digital clock countdown at the top right of the screen! PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE ALL the labs you find HERE or buy more if you can!
Before, i used to squeeze my eyebrows when i read people taking these short cuts, getting most if not the exact question before the exam… BUT. How come with 80percent —config, verify, troubleshoot etc and 88percent –implement, veryfy etc and 83percent and 83 percent and 53percent. These cisco guys tell me ´´THE SCORES BELOW ARE NOT CUMULATIVE.

this is also included today in ICND2 exam

Johnnyenglish. i KNOW EXACTLY how you feel!!

Hi, guys.

I cant sleep well! Not with all these comments above chasing me in my dreams… I am booking for a retake. Revenge time! I´ve got some lessons though and thanks for all the support here. But i have always been wondering.. these cisco guy with their software management.. impossible, you cant have thesame exam questions, TWICE. So i never worry too much of trying to remember what i had but to learn more of what i dont.

Pay attention here to the little trick they use to squeeze 150 dollas from you as:
first usable address in the subnet (whereas two of it has already been used, so the third is what to use) comment ¨¨assbc¨¨ above!

READ the question WELL!
I am sure i will be back searching for ccnp materials next time around.

´´a touch to my hat and bowing down to you all´´
many regards

Hi 9tut… Hi Guys! Can you please help me… I will take exam this Feb. Please send me latest dump so that I will have an idea for the exam.. sir.saadelsayed@yahoo.com

Building 1 inf fa0/23 and
Building 2 inf fa0/24
without configuration of ip add, How would function ping from B1’s hosts to B2’s hosts or viceversa ?
Question dont ask it . But if it is, what will be the answer ?
Please help me to clear my idea.
Thankyou.

P.S. Im looking for free dumps please or sites to free dumps like examcollection. Thanks!

sat incd2 on 24th feb, this question was on it

Hello guys,Um setting for ICND2 on Wed!!! looking for IPv6 questions.

Sat for the ICND2 exam a couple of days ago, this question was on it for sure. As usual, same question but different IP addresses. Thank you 9tut! I failed but, only because I ran out of time. Trying again really soon!

Can someone please list what sims are for ICND1? Thanks

@jroc
try http://www.9tut.net for icnd1/icnd2

I passed today and had this exact question. Only, I could not get any information on the default gateway. I looked in the running-config, and found only the VLAN 1 address in building_1. How else could I have found it other than the running-config?

@WTF you’d have got the default gateway from doing a sh cdp neighbor command

Hi WTF,
Do you applied ‘ show mac address-table’ ?
you have got it on the interface Fa0/24 on building_1 , is not it ?
Please, any one can confirm it ?
Thank-you.

hi demz,
have you another solution other then ‘sh cdp neighbor details’ ?
let me know, please.

In another forum they talked about 2 other ways in order to obain the ip of default gateway:

show ip default-gateway(i am not sure 100% about it )

show startup-config (if you can’t use the show run command, maybe you can use its twist command )

i meant, “TWIN” command

i used the command show ip default-gateway and i got back the address of the deaul gatewayn ( i used GNS3 not packet tracer ! )
Indeed, if the show run is disabled, you will be able to use this command in order to discover the address used on the active interface of the router

#sh run needs to be available on building1 so you find the subnet range.. i would presume.

as i read above, the show run might be not working…
so u dont know how to discover the ip of default gateway, but for that, you can use show cdp neighbor detail, and then you will find out about the address of the interface of the router.

had this yesterday, sh run does work in sim, just remember to copy run start once you have finished and to test with a ping.only difference for me was ip’s were different from above example. Also had frame relay sim and an ospf simlet, a few drag and drops around poison routes, hold down’s etc. The info on here is still very valid. passed with 860, thanks guys and 9tut, lots of hard work went into passing both my pt1 and 2 but the info here helped greatly.

@Croplaa If the question didn’t state to save the config or to ensure that this config would be used on the next reload….something along those lines then I wouldn’t do it on the exam simply because I wasn’t instructed to do so.
that’s a myth. the score is judged on running-config !!!

@croplaa

What was involved with the frame relay sim?

This question was on my exam.careful because show running config didn’t show any configuration about vlan. They wanted me to assign first ip on the management vlan.because show running config wasn’t showing any vlan ip address and subnetmask I only did the vtp question.we should complain about it

@We’d

Croplaa had this question yesterday and he doesn’t mention any issues with not showing vlan.

if you can’t issue the show run command (even though several peeps said they could use it easily), there are other methods you can use in order to get the ip address of both, default gateway and int vlan1 of the switch (plus the subnet mask!); for examples
show protocols: you can discover the ip address + sub mask of the switch
show cdp neighbor detail: you discover the ip add of the interface that gets dressed with the role of Default Gateway on that Lan

@we’d “sh run” showed me the ip address + sub and vlan it was assigned to along with the def gateway. but as joe comments there are other ways to get this info.

@joe mendola I appreciate that it may or may not be required to copy the running config however until someone at cisco confirms otherwise I would go with saving the config to start. So many people mention it that it would be a shame to go through the sims correctly configuring them and then failing all because you didn’t copy the running to start config. it takes seconds to type and you certainly won’t lose points but it might just cost you re-sit if you don’t do it.

@rick the frame relay sim can be found on the ccna website under hotspot. It was the same sim but with different questions. nothing too tricky.

Had this same question… don’t remember being able to see pys. connections on topology, but if you can see sw1 fa 0/24 is patched into the router then show CDP neighbor detail should show IP attached to that port and that is your “IP Default-Gateway” BTW, I failed it, too much time on this stupid scenario that will never occur on the job, unless you working in a “hacktory”

in the exam can you use “?” commando to see the possible commands to use

Absolutly! “?” is very usefull on an exam.

Had this today. Yes you can use ? – mine asked for the 1st available IP on the subnet.

I had this as well. Thank you Tut and xallax!
Forgot pinging after the configuration is done,even though saved issueing copy run start, may be that is the reason why I get low as 846. But passed, thats the point.
Guys, not all questions were from the dumps,so please learn the concept!

had the exact same question today, 28 mar 12. Just different domain name and mode. I didnt copy run start and didnt ping either, but i passed the exam as well. Thanks to you guys!! 916/1000 points.

Passed! this was on the exam.

You only cant do show run if you are not in enable mode. Remember to be in the correct modes!

I took the test today and had this sim, I thought I did everything correct, I changed the IP address to 192.168.X.129 225.255.255.224, I changed switch 2’s gateway to the router gateway that was in IP default-gateway of bldg1 switch, I changed the VTP mode to client and to the correct domain and did the copy running-config startup-config. I checked the VTP config and everything had updated OK but I still could not ping the swithes in bldg1, I checked vlan1 int on both switches and they both were down down. Any ideas why this was the case?

I have passed the exam with 944 marks, this was on my exam

In my sim default-gateway is 192.168.147.97
building 1 ip address is 192.168.147.125 255.255.255.224
you have to configure last available ip address which is 192.168.147.126 255.255.255.224
vtp mode is client
vtp domain is central

Thanks 9tut!!!!!!!!!!

@ kevin – could be that a ‘no shutdown’ on vlan 1 was required on the Switch you were configuring. Not sure tho dude.

Do you have lab for this LABSIM???

Has anybody experienced an error message when trying to open the .pkt for this sim in Packet Tracer.
I download the sim, try to open it and I get a “packet tracer has stopped working unexpectedly” error…acy ideas…Im running PT 5.0 on Win 7.

Today is my CCNA in aapx 3 Hrs. Wish me luck.

To get the ip “show cdp neighboor detail”
to get subnet “show interfaces vlan1”

Passed my ICND2 today. Thank you so much to 9tut and Cisco.AcutalTests.640-816.v2012-02-05.204q at ExamCollection and everyone who left comments and asked many good questions here. I couldn’t have done it without each and everyone of you. You all have helped me so much and I will do the same in return.

To those of us who had passed the exam, please help others as others had helped us.

Many thanks to all of you!!

I will be pursing CCNA-Security soon.

Had this sim on my exam. The following commands were disabled on the management switch.

#show ip default-gateway
#show cdp neighbors detail (command works, but didn’t show DG IP)
#show cdp entry [name of router]

Don’t recall if I did show #running-config. But I remember I’ve tried everything and couldn’t find the DG, so I took an educated guess by pinging from the management switch.

Found the IP of the management switch ip by doing
#sh int vlan 1

Mgmt IP was x.x.x.98/27

I pinged x.x.x.97 and got a response. Had to assume that x.x.x97 was the IP of the DG. I assigned the new switch with x.x.x.99/224, first available IP of the mgmt switch.

Finished the VTP domain and client configurations

Ran #copy run start
#ping x.x.x.97 and x.x.x98 with success.

Maybe someone else can confirm if they had tried #show running-config.

Got 4 questions from the Frame-Relay sim from CCNA-Hot Spot. Questions were harder than it appears. Maybe because this was the last questions I got with 10 minutes left remaining. Probably got one of the questions wrong as the ip address that was asked was not on any of the serials.

Finished the exam with 5 minutes remaining.

passed today 875 score got VTP sim and about 2 new ques.

Hello All, I passed today with a score of 960. I found the 9tut site and the collisio dumps still valid.

@Darth did show run work for you? thanks in advance

thank you 9tut.net
i pass icnd2 with 860
this lap came but different ip
thank you

congrats Jose
did the command show ru work for you? if not what did you use to get the DG and IP?

#show ip arp was also disabled.

@IT Lady, for the IP you can use the SHOW INTERFACES or SHOW INTERFACES VLAN 1

@ Lazanya thanks will try that my exam is today

the command
show running-config is run
and
show vtp status is run

I had this question on my test last friday. I think I got all the information correctly entered, but when I tried to ping the other switch it failed. I made sure the interface was enabled, and I had the IP address and gateway in. Just not sure what I could have missed. I ended up just leaving it and going on.

Dont you have to configure switchport mode trunk on the Fa0/24. I forgot to check and did not try to ping. If I get it again I will let you know. Got 818 points last week.

PL – I think you are right. I followed these instructions perfectly, and I’ve been looking at why I couldn’t get it to work. I came here as a backup to see why I missed it. Same exact as how I did it. Now that you mention the trunk port, I think that’s why it wasn’t working.

El Diablo – I have managed to pass with 986 this time and got this same question. I have looked through the sh run and the trunk was already configured. This time I have forgotten do do the “wr” command.

Well, I’m not sure what I did wrong… I did it exactly as said, after learning and doing it myself… Not sure.

Passed my ICND2 exam yesterday, this website is amazing, the vtp sim was 95% accurate, 9tut provides a very important service to techs…..
