Cisco 642-832 TSHOOT Topology & Tickets for Cisco Packet Tracer rel. 6.

1 STUDENT
- User Guide and Release Notes:
1)
The included Full Working TSHOOT Topology and additional 15 TSHOOT Ticket Topolo
gies are developed for the final Cisco Packet Tracer release 6.1 "STUDENT" and l
ater.
2)
All (.PKT) Ticket files should be saved within a subfolder under the Packet Trac
er ...\SAVES folder on the user PC.
3)
IMPORTANT: To make each Ticket run more smooth and fast + also avoiding the poss
ibilty of cheating (by looking at PT Links Up/Down) - Packet Tracer LINK LIGHTS
should be TURNED OFF, while troubleshooting each Ticket!!!
Therefore, pls. enter Packet Tracer Menu: "Options / Preferences / Interface" to
DISABLE Packet Tracer Link Lights!
4)
Ticket Answers + Tech notes and Tips & Tricks etc. are supplied within the avail
able PULL DOWN MENU, located at the MIDDLE/BOTTOM of each Packet Tracer Main Scr
een - Pls. click at the small "v"-sign there, to select a Ticket Answer etc. fro
m the Menu.
5)
All supplied TSHOOT Tickets are fully supported within the final Packet Tracer 6
.1 STUDENT Simulator, except from the following 3 Tickets:
Ticket#2 (HSRP Route Metric Object Tracking)
Ticket#6 (VACL filter)
Ticket#11 (Route-map based OSPF->EIGRP Redistribution)
because theese technologies are just partially supported within the current fina
l Packet Tracer 6.1 STUDENT release.
The mentioned 3 Tickets are therefore "faked" (as close as possible), and furthe
rmore fully described (within available Pull Down Menues) in each Ticket.
6)
To improve TSHOOT training and learning, each Ticket should be started "anonymou
sly" by double clicking a random TSHOOT Ticket (.pkt) file!
This can e.g. be done from within a file-manager app, where the actual Ticket fi
lename has been hidden, due to a "shrinked" file-list panel.
In addition, the current TSHOOT .pkt files - alternately - should be sorted by:
"date", "size" and "filename" - repeatedly in both ascending and descending orde
r within the filemanager.
In this way, the Troubleshooter will NEVER know what Ticket, he is going to solv
e, which is an important goal!
7)
Tickets with INITIAL Client IP addresses of 10.2.1.x /24 are basicly configured
as "fixed" Client IP addresses - Remaining (169.x.x.x based) Tickets uses DHCP f
or supplying Client IP addresses - This is due to speed up the troubleshooting p
rocess within each Ticket.

8)
However, pls. allow about a minute to get each Ticket FULLY converged - (in term
s of Routing Protocol Convergence etc.).
