How to use eigrp the 64-bit metric version

Hello everyone,

In the default mode, cisco router only supports 32-bit metric version.
If you want that cisco router to support 64-bit metric version, you should use named configuratioin


EIGRP AS Number Configuration vs. EIGRP Named Configuration


// EIGRP AS Number Configuration //

Layer 2 Technologies - Managing Mac address table

Hi everyone

There are three purposes for the ethernet switch.
 1.  Learning addresses 
 2.  Forward/filter decision
 3.  Loop avoidance.

Learning address is like this



You can use "show  mac-address-table" to check cam table. By using "show mac-address-table aging-time " checks the lift time of mac address.


See you next time and Good Luck!

Wireless LAN feature -- 1 open wlan

Hello everyone

We had finished AP joining process on 2014/12/26. From today, We go to our second part -- Wireless LAN feature, which the contents are:

  1  open wlan
  2  wep wlan
  3  leap wlan
  4  eap-fast wlan
  5. ccmp wlan
  6. advanced wlan 
      6.a  AP group
      6.b  DHCP option 82

The sound looks not very bad :).   OK, let us go to today's topic open wlan.    
In the real CCIE lab exam or customer's network, it does not have request for setting open wlan. But it is good to test basic connectivity.

1. Go to WLANs, create a new Main1 profile and SSID



2. Enable the Wlan.



3. Click Security and set layer 2 security to None




It looks very simple !
See you next time and Good Luck !!
