    - MS Press Book 70-297 On page 1-52 under "Lesson 3 Review", question 2 states: "Your company has registered the network ID 131.107.0.0, which uses the default subnet mask 255.255.0.0. You would like to create a custom subnet mask that allows you to divide that network into the maximum number of subnets that would allow you to have at least 20 hosts per subnet. What custom subnet mask would you use?" Question 2 Answer states: "To start with, you know you will have to borrow some bits from the host ID in the third and fourth octets. Any custom subnet mask with a value greater than 240 in the tourth octet will give you fewer than 20 hosts per subnet. Using 255.255.255.224 as a subnet mask will give you 4095 possible subnets with 31 hosts possible per subnet. It is also common practice to subtract 2 addresses from the possible number of hosts to account fro host IDs that contain all zeros or all ones. Even with this margin, you still have 30 possible hosts." I apologize for re-typing all of this but my question is about the answer. Where do they get the number 4095 possible subnets? Is this a typo and if not, where is the 4095 coming from? I understand every other part of the question and answer except for that. Someone who knows please help. Thanks!

    - Understanding the DHCP Server Client conversation (very intresting subject) Dear Friends, Through my researches and my studies I tried to understand the DHCP Server client conversation in Windows Server 2003 environment and I'm little bit lost here. Now, According to this table that is listed on Microsoft web page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/169289 Source Dest Source Dest Packet MAC addr MAC addr IP addr IP addr Description ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Client Broadcast 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 DHCP Discover * DHCPsrvr Broadcast DHCPsrvr 255.255.255.255 DHCP Offer Client Broadcast 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 DHCP Request ** DHCPsrvr Broadcast DHCPsrvr 255.255.255.255 DHCP ACK I have some questions regarding the DHCP conversation manner. The DHCP server sends a Broadcast MSG offering the IP address to the client (*) and at the end it sends AGAIN a Broadcast MSG to acknowledge the IP address that's been offered (**). Now, my questions are :- 1) I understand that the Client is sending a broadcast message because it doesn't know any concrete DHCP server in order to request an IP address, but why the DHCP sends also a broadcast message to the client (*) (**)? 2) Let's agree that the DHCP server is broadcasting its offer, what happen if there is more than one client (lets say 50 or more) is getting same IP address that's suppose to be offered to a concrete client at the same time? Doesn't this make a high traffic in the network making all the clients go back and forth with the DHCPNACK, DHCPDECLINE and the DHCPACK????? NOTE: I understand that the client sends an ARP request with the offered IP address if it gets a reply that means that this IP address is in use and the client sends DHCPDECLINE, this is from the CLIENT side but what about the server side and the whole network?? :-s 3) Why don't the DHCP server cuts the crap and use the client MAC address to send the DHCPOFFER and the DHCPACK instate of broadcasting to all clients? PLEASE NOTE : That the MAC address is in the second layer (Data Link layer) in the OSI model while the IP address is in the third layer (Network layer) which make it more reasonable for the DHCP server to use the the MAC address of the client that is requesting the service to send him the IP address instate of BROADCASTING the DHCPOFFER and the DHCPACK and making high traffic. I'm sorry for make it long but I think that the subject is worth it.... Yours, Weamfox Tag: Any advice advice on MCSE? Tag: 219600

    - New to the field I am 34 years old and have decided to make a career change from sales (which I have been in for over 10 years). I have enjoyed working with computers for over 17 years and should of made this decision a long time ago. I am taking courses with a company called New Horizons to work toward my MCSE 2003 certs. In this program I do get hands on experience and will be placed in an internship within the next month. If everything goes well I will have completed all my exams within the next 10 months.

    - Another MCSE 2003 I passed my last MCSE exam on Feb 1st. It took me a year to finish the last 5 exams and three years in total to get to the MCSE. I work as a Network Administrator and I knew nothing about installing servers, installing Exchange, GPOs, AD, DNS, DHCP, etc. I had an opportunity to set this all up from the ground up at my job. I had no plan but I had a lot of preparation guides, installation guides, design guides, etc that I download and read from Microsoft. My employer paid for one course which was for the 70-294 exam and that exam I took a year later! I was too busy setting up the network. In short, I earned my stripes getting the MCSE even though I didn't use every technology covered on each exam (i.e Remote Access, VPNs, etc) but I tried my best with Vmware to recreate the environment for learning. My question is this, I want to move ahead into the systems architecture field and do more intermediate systems work. Any advise on the best way to go about that? I want to certify for Exchange 2007 and get a head start on Windows Server 08 as well. Tag: Any advice advice on MCSE? Tag: 219392

    - Simulation questions I just barely failed 70-292, and the post mortem indicated that I did the worst in Managing Name Resolution, an area I know well given that it's been one of my main responsibilities for the last 6 years. There were a number of simulations in that section, and I'm wondering if that's where I went wrong. How precise do you have to be to be marked correct on simulations? On one of them I remember pressing OK when I was done, but got no feedback from the interface that I had done anything, so I assumed that it did nothing and did not do it again. Was that a costly mistake? How picky are these simulations? Thanks. Tag: Any advice advice on MCSE? Tag: 219390

    - OT: Webex replacements I know this is a little more than slightly off topic, but maybe some of you can help me. I am looking for a replacement to webex. We use webex for remote customer support, and it's a great tool no doubt, but it's expensive as all get out. We have looked at and played with gotomypc, and logmein, however those products require extensive local installation, something that many of our customers object to (HIPAA concerns with their local IT staffs). Ideally, a product should have the following properties... full remote (secure) client control over the web a meeting center voice as well as web conferencing file transfer ability some type of payment portal (paypal or others) be easy to connect to via the Internet yet secure should pay us instead of us paying them Ok, the last one is a bit of a stretch, I can bend on that :) I am just looking for suggestions, maybe some of you have been in this boat before. Thank you in advance for any suggestions you might offer. John R Tag: Any advice advice on MCSE? Tag: 219366

    - MCSE 2003 Exams, Work Experience Prerequisites , a challenge for s Hello, I have some 4 years working experience in Computing, starting from static web designing and now systems Admin. I am getting ready to study for the MCSE exams on server 2003. One thing that marvels me is the work experience Prerequisites. Quote: "The Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) on Windows Server 2003 credential is intended for IT professionals who work in the typically complex computing environment of medium to large companies. An MCSE candidate should have at least one year of experience implementing and administering a network operating system in environments that have the following characteristics: â?¢ 250 to 5,000 or more users â?¢ Three or more physical locations â?¢ Three or more domain controllers â?¢ Network services and resources such as messaging, database, file and print, proxy server, firewall, Internet, intranet, remote access, and client computer management â?¢ Connectivity requirements such as connecting branch offices and individual users in remote locations to the corporate network and connecting corporate networks to the Internet In addition, an MCSE candidate should have at least one year of experience in the following areas: â?¢ Designing a network infrastructure â?¢ Implementing and administering a desktop operating system" I am from Ghana in West Africa and I currently work in Liberia in the same region. It is very difficult to even find companies with 150 computers. Does it mean that some of use who have not even worked for such companies have no chance of getting certified? I just want to know..

    - MCSE 2000 to 2003 upgrade path. What happens when 2000 is retired? MCSE 2000 to 2003 upgrade path. What happens when 2000 is retired? Right now I am trying to get 70-292 and 70-296 done before March 31st so I can upgrade to my MSCE to 2003. I have the 70-292 exam scheduled for next Tuesday. I hope to pass and start right on to studying 70-296 and complete that test by the March 31st deadline. What do you think will happen if I cant complete 70-296 by March 31st. 70-292 and 70-296 will be retired and discontinued on March 31st. Do you think I will be able to still upgrade with the non-retired core exams that make up 70-296,(293 and 294)? If I schedule 70-296 and fail it before the 31st do you think I will be allowed to reschedule and take it after March 31st. what if I used a retake voucher with the original appointment before the 31st?

    - MCSE in Windows 2003: Security road from here Hi. Yesterday I passed 70-292 exam so, as I had passed before 70-210, 70-215, 70-216 and 70, 218, I'm now MCSA in Windows 2000 and in Windows 2003. My objective is the MCSE in Windows 2003 with speciality in Security. So, being MCSA in Windows 2003, what now? How much to go? 2, 3 more? Which ones could they be? How many â??coreâ?? and how many â??electiveâ??? The next exam I want to sit for is CompTIA Security+. In my opinion, this exam has its own importance, apart from the possibility of being used as requisite to MCSE, so passing it would give me at the same time â??a piece of the MCSEâ?? and a 3rd party recognized certification. Speaking about Security+â?¦what exact impact does this exam have in the â??pathâ?? I need to accomplish my objective? Is it consider â??electiveâ??? Honestly, I tried to understand the CertPlanner, but I just donâ??t get how to figure out easily the options I have to achieve my goal. Thanks!!! Carlos Tapia.

    - 70-292 and IPSec Hi there, I'm about to take the 70-292 exam, and I'm a little concerned that my IPSec knowledge is not up to scratch. I can't see it listed on the Microsoft exam specifications, but the Transcender tests that I've been doing have that and RRAS questions all over the place. Should I spend more time studying up on those topics, or is it actually not required for this test. Thanks in advance for any feedback. ...Assi. Tag: Any advice advice on MCSE? Tag: 219236

My name is Wayne, I'm 23 years old.

I just got back home (South Africa) from traveling the UK. I was lucky
enough to find a job in a telecom company and they are sending me on the MCSE
course, now I only have the basic experience of a PC and its components. Any
advice???

Hi Wayne.

Definately don't just read books. Take each topic you cover and learn as
much as you can. Get as much hands on experience as you can and get to know
the different command line utility programs and the various switches etc as
it is not just GUI interaction!

See what they can offer you at work by learning the setup at your place of
work.

All the best!
