<br />
When a Cisco router has more than one route to a particular destination and those routes come from different route sources (directly connected, static, and/or dynamic routing protocol(s)), the router ios uses the administrative distance to decide which of those routes to place in the routing table (the best route(s)). <br />
<br />
Whereas, the metric value is used when there is more than one way to get to a particular destination and all of the routes to that destination come from a single route source (i.e. RIP dynamic routing protocol).<br />
<br />
As we discussed in class, the metric used by the routing protocol will be different, depending on the routing protocol. RIP uses hop count, Cisco’s OSPF uses bandwidth; EIGRP uses bandwidth and delay by default (but can be configured to include load and reliability). <br />
<br />
The administrative distance value is set by Cisco and not an actual standard. However, other vendors do use it. The route that has the lower administrative distance will be preferred over the router with the higher administrative distance and will be added to the routing table. The term “trustworthy” is commonly used when defining administrative distance. The lower the administrative distance value, the more “trustworthy” the route.<br />
<br />
I hope this helps - Joanne<br />

We are looking for about 15 people and they don't need a lot of experience it will be mainly following a checklist of software uninstalls and installs, as well as actually placing the computers in the classrooms along with printers and phones in addition to cleaning off the existing physical equipment that has gotten dust covered over the past year.<br />

I'm checking in after a few years. I just wanted to ask if you knew anyone interested in filling a NOC Engineer position downtown, full-time, full benefits. We would need a very seasoned CCNA level person. Let me know if somebody comes to mind. Thanks!Joanne Wagnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06625926821869751697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381326397282670856.post-53736219943803076552011-11-09T19:05:00.000-08:002011-11-09T19:11:56.515-08:00Jobs in CIT CCNAQuestion: <br /><br />You wrote back to me about where I can look to find jobs in CIT CCNA and I have some more questions. I had taken the first class at the College of DuPage to get a CCNA and I plan on taking the next class. <br /><br />I really want to get a job in this and not just spend money and time taking classes and get a CCNA and then no job. Is there still a demand for CCNA engineers in this economy? And if so, do you think the demand will grow for a CCNA engineer? <br /><br />Reply:<br />There is a demand for qualified, certified network engineers, James. Do a search on ‘network engineer’ on the web. Try http://www.indeed.com; http://www.careerbuilder.com; http://www.monster.com; http://www.dice.com; http://www.usa.lucidjobs.com; http://www.ilworkinfo.com; http://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/tch.<br /><br /> <br />Question:<br />What I got out of reading what you wrote to me was that a CCNA engineer can work in a lot of industries. Am I correct? These companies and organizations hire and need someone with a CCNA and not just a manager because you wrote manager. Am I correct? (The reason I ask that is because as someone who would be new with a CCNA, I would not be a manager.) <br /><br />Reply:<br />Yes, you are correct. A networking engineer can come from any one of the many vertical markets, I mentioned. IT is everywhere! <br /><br />Question:<br />Here is what you wrote me: "IT managers across all vertical markets, government, healthcare, education, finance, insurance/securities, wholesalers, and retailers in the production and distribution of products, law, entertain/sports, real estate, etc. hire our graduates. Depending on the individual student’s background, he/she may find a career in any of the following fields with a degree or certificate from CIT: network administrators, system support specialists, system administrators, technical support specialist, network support specialist, computer support, security specialist, convergence specialist, or VoIP support specialist. And of course, there are also many opportunities and careers in security, not only as a career but as a network professional in the IT departments of any of the above mentioned industries." <br /><br />Reply:<br />I did not say that you are limited to becoming an IT manager, James. I said that IT managers from all these vertical markets hire our graduates. That, of course, is no guarantee that you will take our four CCNA prep courses and be guaranteed a job. It doesn’t work that way. <br /><br />Question:<br />You also wrote that it would be a good idea to get an internship while working on getting my CCNA. I agree and I want to do that. In getting an internship, I can look at state and local governments, schools --high schools, insurance companies, stores like Macy's and Sam's Club and Walmart, factories, and Lawyers. Am I correct? <br /><br />Reply:<br />Yes. In addition, internship opportunities exist for currently enrolled COD students completing a program of study through the Cooperative Education and Internship Program. You can go online to register, and check current internship openings at www.cod.edu/intern. Also, students may call 630-942-2611 for an appointment for more information.<br /><br />Question:<br />I am confused as to the different fields you wrote, such as, network administrator and technical support specialist. It's confusing to me because at the college we learn how to be a CCNA engineer. How do we become those that you mentioned? <br /><br />Reply:<br />James, I highly suggest that you do some research on your own. You can ‘google’ these different fields to get an understanding of each. In addition, you can search on them through the links I listed above, and take a look at the different job descriptions for each. You also have the COD library resources available to you. <br /><br />Question:<br />I am also confused as to what I can write on my resume and tell these people in these industries about what I can do for them as an intern. <br /><br />Reply:<br />You write the truth – your current and past job experiences. There is a wealth of information in our library on resume writing.<br /><br />Closing Comments:<br />Thank you Joanne for all your help as I look to continue in the CCNA classes. Please let me know your thoughts. <br /><br />Reply:<br />You are on the right track, James. That CCNA certification is the first step!Joanne Wagnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06625926821869751697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381326397282670856.post-46779548517110024362011-09-16T10:17:00.000-07:002011-09-16T10:18:22.116-07:00PC Tech - Naperville, ILJo:<br /> <br />There's a law firm in Naperville that is looking for a PC tech for about 20-25 hours per week.

Browsers set a time limit so when they reach a server that does not respond they will not get stuck forever. After a while they give up.<br /><br />On the other hand, a "Destination Host Unreachable" message response indicates that the browser could not reach the server, such as when there is a problem with the DNS service. The server can't be found or there is a problem with the name to IP address translation.Joanne Wagnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06625926821869751697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381326397282670856.post-69184152811726092782011-05-25T15:11:00.000-07:002011-05-25T15:14:40.079-07:00Technical Support PositionsHi Joanne, <br /><br /> My name is Greg Farmer.

So I will be changing jobs in a week or so. That leaves my current job up for grabs, and since it’s an I.T. kind of thing, perhaps some of your students might wish to apply? Some experience is necessary, but the job could be tailored to fit the right person. A mature, independent worker is essential as there is little supervision.
