2). Cisco CCNP / BSCI Exam Tutorial: The Passive Interface Command And OSPF By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
To pass the BSCI exam and become a CCNP, you have to be aware of the proper use of passive interfaces. You learned about passive interfaces in your CCNA studies, but here we’ll review the basic concept and clear up one misconception regarding passive interfaces and OSPF. Configuring an interface as passive will still allow the interface to receive routing updates, but the interface will no longer transmit them.

3). Cisco CCNA / CCNP Exam Tutorial: Five Debugs You Must Know By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
To pass the BSCI exam and move one step closer to CCNP certification success, you've got to know how and when to use debug commands to troubleshoot and verify network operations. While you should never practice debug commands on a production network, it's important to get some hands-on experience with them and not rely on "router simulators" and books to learn about them.

4). Cisco CCNP / BSCI Certification: Route Redistribution And The Seed Metric By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
In the first part of this free CCNP / BSCI tutorial, we looked at how leaving one simple word out of our route redistribution configuration - "subnets" - resulted in an incomplete routing table when redistributing routes from RIP to OSPF. (If you missed that part of the tutorial, visit my website's "Free Tutorials" section.) Today, we'll look at redistributing OSPF routes into RIP and identify another common redistribution error.

5). Cisco CCNA / CCNP Certification Exam Review: Protocol Basics By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
To earn your Cisco CCNA certification and pass the BSCI CCNP exam, you have to know your protocol basics like the back of your hand! To help you review these important concepts, here's a quick look at the basics of RIPv1, RIPv2, IGRP, and EIGRP. RIPv1: Broadcasts updates every 30 seconds to the address 255.255.255.255. RIPv1 is a classful protocol, and it does not recognize VLSM, nor does it carry subnet masking information in its routing updates.

6). Cisco CCNP / BSCI Certification: Troubleshooting Route Redistribution, Part I By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
If there's one CCNP / BSCI topic that looks so easy but can lead to a real headache, it's route redistribution. I'm not even talking about the routing loops and suboptimal routing that can result when route redistribution is done without proper planning - I'm talking about the basic commands themselves. Leaving out one single command option, or forgetting what else needs to be redistributed when redistributing dynamically discovered routes, can leave you with a routing table that looks complete but does not result in full IP connectivity.

7). Cisco CCNA / CCNP Certification Exam Lab: Frame Relay Subinterfaces And Split Horizon By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
Earning your Cisco CCNA and CCNP is a tough proposition, and part of that is the fact that you quickly learn that there’s usually more than one way to do things with Cisco routers – and while that’s generally a good thing, you better know the ins and outs of all options when it comes to test day and working on production networks. Working with Frame Relay subinterfaces and split horizon is just one such situation.

8). Cisco CCNP / BSCI Tutorial: Route Summarization With RIP And EIGRP By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
To pass your BSCI exam and earn your CCNP certification, you've got to master route summarization. When you get to the BSCI level, actually breaking the routes down into binary strings and performing summarization is second nature to you. (If it isn't, get some more practice!) What makes CCNP / BSCI route summarization more difficult is just keeping the different protocol summarization commands straight! RIP and EIGRP both perform route summarization at the interface level with the ip summary-address command.

9). Cisco Routing For The CCNA And CCNP: Administrative Distance By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
The textbook definition of "administrative distance" is simple enough: "the measurement of a protocol's believability". It's not enough to know the definition, however you've got to know when AD comes into the picture and when it does not. When a packet needs to be routed, the router looks in its routing table for the next-hop IP address the packet should take to get to the destination.

11). Cisco CCNA Exam Tutorial: Split Horizon And Hub-And-Spoke Networks By : Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933
For CCNA exam success, you had better know what split horizon is, how to turn it off, and when to turn it off. Knowing when to turn split horizon off is also important in production networks, because it can cause a hub-and-spoke network to have incomplete routing tables on the spokes. Split horizon exists for a very good reason - routing loop prevention.

17). Is Your Loan Company Ripping You Off? By : Michael Challiner
The companies that loan people money then add on sky high interest rates might claim to be doing people a favour by offering them the chance to have instant cash. Instead, they are crippling the poor with debt. So says the Competition Commission which will quickly and clearly point out that what these outfits are doing is plain wrong. What these companies have become, the commission is likely to tell you, is sharks - predators which prey on the most vulnerable in society because they earn the least and have no other way of gaining credit.
