Hi Guys, I have a somewhat annoying ongoing problem here that I think the list may be able to assist me with. My connection to the Internet is via a T-1. I have 6 B chan for IP and 2 for some voice lines right now. My connection seems to drop out on a fairly regular basis, at least once every 2 days, sometime more often for periods of a few sec to over 15min. They seem to occur at random times and do not appear to be local in nature, ie the premises equipment, the router is a box called a "Vina eLink". I will have at my disposal in the near futer a Bit Error rate tester, I now maintain a network of 16 DS1 microwave radios, it pays to have a day job. In the mean time I'd like to have my firewall box provide some stats that I could use as leverage with my account rep.The Box is a Slackware 8.0 with 2.2.20 and IP Chains on it. I was thinking a regular, say every minute ping of 5 packets to a remote box, someone amenable to me doing this of course. The resulting information being saved and collated to show outages with an accurate date/time stamp. Ideas suggestions?
