RE: Cisco PIX : Static and Conduit command

2001-02-16 Thread Syamsul


Hi,

Thanks for the info. Is there any documents that i can refer to?. Would the PIX still 
maintain the
stateful capabilities without the conduit command?.

Thanks.

That's true, conduits are going away.  The only reason you see them is for
backward compatibility issues.  Definitely use static commands with
access-lists.  Its a two-step process, but its a nice feature.

Does anybody know about the advantage of having static conduit command
compare with
access-list/access-group command in PIX?.

I heard that the static conduit will no longer available in the future
realease. Is it True??.

  I have a PIX firewall that is being used for a VPN as well. The problem
is
  all the inside addresses are being translated to public addresses even
 when
  the traffic is destine for the VPN tunnel. I tried the following
commands
  but this seems to block all translations.
  (real IPs have been replaced for security)
 
  access-list nonat permit ip 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.0
  255.255.255.0
  nat (inside) 0 access-list nonat
  global (outside) 1 172.16.10.1 net 255.255.255.255
 
  I also tried using DENY in the access list
  access-list nonat deny ip 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.0
  255.255.255.0
  This didn't work either.
 
  How can I can the traffic destined for the Internet to be translated and
 the
  traffic destined for the VPN not be translated?

/27 is the correct summarization for those routes, but the range it covers

Re: telnet - to - PIX Internet router-

2001-02-16 Thread Jason

Correct, for security reasons the PIX does not act as a terminal server to
allow you to telnet from it.  If you wish to telnet to a router through the
pix, configure a static NAT, and the a conduit to permit tcp/23.

Frame    router---  netra t1 PIX firewall---  Switch--   The
switch is where the netra t1 and the router and firewall are connected.
When I reboot my netra t1 the PIX firewall grabs the traffic instead of
sending back up stream through the Cisco firewall.   I remove the firewall
everything works okay.  Does pix have some type of proxy ARP that grabs the
traffic???

If you have a unix box I would do this myself:

telnet cisco
show run | include Serial
copy and paste the results to a file
delete out any serials you don't want bandwidth statements for

create this script

#!/bin/bash
exec  serialsfile
while read serial
do
echo "$serial"  serial.cfg
echo "bandwidth 56"  serial.cfg
echo "exit"  serial.cfg
done

run it, paste the results into your telnet session

OT Fridays funnie!

2001-02-16 Thread Natasha

A farmer got pulled over by a state trooper for speeding, and the
trooper
started to lecture the farmer about his speed, and in general began to
throw
his weight around to try to make the farmer uncomfortable.

Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the ticket, and as he was
doing that he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his
head.
The farmer said, "Having some problems with circle flies there, are ya?"
The trooper stopped writing the ticket and said, "Well, yeah, is that
what
they are? I've never heard of circle flies."

So the farmer said, "Well, circle flies are common on farms. See,
they're
called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around
the
backend of a horse."

The trooper said, "Oh," and went back to writing the ticket. Then after
a
minute he stopped and said, "Hey, wait a minute. Are you trying to call
me a
horse's ass?"

The farmer said, "Oh no, officer. I have too much respect for law
enforcement and police officers to even think about calling you a
horse's
ass."

The trooper said, "Well, that's a good thing," and went back to writing
the
ticket. After a long pause, the farmer said, "Hard to fool them flies,
though."

Lad scheduling question

Hi All

With a little more study I will pass the written this month, and I am
starting to wonder more about the process of scheduling the lab.

I plan to use the SJ lab... So here is the question. Can I schedule the lab
for a specific date? Yes I know there is a back log till August or later,
but I more interested in a longer date, I am thinking 10 or 11 months after
the written. I have quite a few big projects coming up at work, and it will
be hard to keep my "study" mind set and energy, so the extended time will
benefit me.

 Finally, after much procrastination all last year, I have finished this
 darn thing.  I took the Switching test last summer, but then put the
 entire thing on hold because I was tired of all the studying.  :-)

 But then an acquaintance of mine gave me an idea:  just schedule the
 tests and that will force you study for them.  He was right, that
 provided a great motivation.  I schedule Remote Access five weeks ago,
 Routing two weeks ago, and then Support last night.

 I must say that the Support test is both easy and hard.  It was fairly
 easy in some areas because I do a LOT of troubleshooting at work.
 however, some of the questions are *very* poorly written.  I recall one
 question where you had to pick the "best" answer, but four of the five
 answer were correct and two of those were almost identical.  Yikes.
 There were at least four or five questions where I made an educated
 guess because I couldn't figure out what they were really asking.

 And, as someone else mentioned before, the final grade is broken down
 into four categories and I don't remember getting a single question in
 two of those categories!

 I also have to sympathize with those of you who don't have anyone
 around who really cares that you pass your tests.  None of my
 coworkers--including my boss--really care.  My wife cares, but she
 doesn't understand any of it.  So, I feel your pain.  :-)

 Now, on to CCDP.  I think I'll schedule that bugger in two or three
 weeks to get it out of the way.  And thenon to the big guy...
 that's spooky.  g

 sorry for OSPF

You should have left out that extra piece of information that the packets
you mention are for OSPF, and anyone who didn't know that should go back to
studying. ;-) This is an odd way of saying that you would have to know at
least that much for the routing exam. You don't have to know the exact
frame formats. It's must more important to understand the general
principles of how OSPF routers become adjacent and synchronize their
databases, and to be able to recognize the commonality in the frame 
formats.

With regards to frame formats, I think you should know the following:

OSPF runs directly above IP, using protocol type 89. (It does not use TCP
or UDP.)

OSPF packets have an IP TTL of 1.

OSPF packets are sent to a reserved multicast address, either AllSPFRouters
(224.0.0.5) or AllDRouters (224.0.0.6).

Each OSPF packet type begins with an OSPF packet header.

The Hello packet is used to find neighbors and detect problems.

All the other packet types carry link-state advertisement information of
some sort.

The best book for describing what you should "really care about" when
learning OSPF is Howard Berkowitz's "Designing Routing and Switching
Architectures." I think he does a better job than Doyle in making sure the
reader focuses on what really matters. And, as we know, he dispels urban
myths with style and aplomb.

Why do you require training in a product that you can download,
and of which the documentation is 20 pages long?

There might be some classes which cover Netflow (and possibly
the analyzer and collector tools), for example DCIINS or ATECH,
but I don't know anyone who is offering these courses yet.

While there is no official training, Cisco (even EMEA) will do
personal training for you if you ask your AM or SE.  This is
probably a question you should be asking them in the first
place.

 Hello all.
 Does anybody know if Cisco gives training to use Netflow (Analyzer) ???
 If yes, where in Europe and how much ???
 (If someone knows courses in Spain or can give me a clue, it would be
great)
 Thanks in advance.

Another strange routing behaviour

2001-02-16 Thread Deloso, Elmer G (WPNSTA Yorktown)

Hi, all.
I might have posted something similar to this not too long ago but I might
not have beed specific enough. Here's the story:

HostA ---Router1---Router9HostB

If i traceroute from within Router1 to HostB, it goes through.
But if i do the same from HostA, it stops at Router9.
The same thing happens when tracerouting from HostB's end, it stops
at Router1.
So i checked with another network that also has a route to Router9,
ans the same story happens. From the Router-Y the trace gets to
HostB. But from Host-Y it stops at Router9.
Has anyone else seen this and figured out the cause?
Thanks.

Re: Octets ???

2001-02-16 Thread John Neiberger

An octet = one byte, or eight bits.  This term is commonly used to refer
to different portions of an IP address in dotted-decimal format.  For
example, in the address 172.16.20.10, the first octect is 172, and the
second octet is 16.

I'm sure there are many other common uses of this particular term, but
this is the only usage in my vocabulary.  g

Re: Another strange routing behaviour

2001-02-16 Thread John Neiberger

This sounds like an access list problem somewhere.  It could be on
Router9, or it could be on the other routers.  Outgoing access lists do
not filter packets originated from the routers themselves.  So, you
could have an access list blocking outgoing ICMP that would still allow
the router itself to originate a trace but would block any other hosts
from doing the same thing.

Or, perhaps you have an access list on Router9 that is blocking ICMP
from other networks, but not directly attached networks/routers.

I would initially take the following steps:  Telnet to router9, turn
off logging to the console and turn on icmp debugging.  Try a trace from
Router1 and then one from HostA.  Turn off debugging and examine the
logs.  (assuming that you were logging in the first place.)  Then go to
Router1 and repeat the process.   That might help pinpoint where the
problem actually lies.

HTH,
John

Re: Another strange routing behaviour

2001-02-16 Thread Brandon Ripper

Hello,

 From personal experience I would point the finger at access lists. 
Take this scenario into account

Host A  -  RouterA - (wan) - RouterB - HostB
192.168.1.0  192.168.2.0  192.168.3.0

Ok, if you had an access list that say permitted traffic to exit on Router 
A from Router B it would get to HostA, BUT that same access list would not 
permit HostB on a different subnet to Talk to Host A. That would require 
RouterA to know about Host B's subnet and allow routing from it. The same 
holds true crossing the link in the opposite direction.

Brandon Ripper
CCNA

PS This would happen on the entire net because off same config problem 
every place, or possibly lack of config.

Re: PIX and NAT with VPN

OK maybe this is a terminology misunderstanding on my part, but I have about
15 route statements in my PIX and use a pix-pix vpn using IPSec.
route interface-name ip_address netmask gateway metric

One of the VPNs set up here had something a little weird where we had to set
up statics for VPN to work but that's something I'll be working on solving
at a later time.  Just for grins try setting up a static statement for one
of the workstations trying to get through and see if it stops using NAT.

You'll find the IPSec user guide on the cisco website very useful for more
info on this.

Firewalls and VPNs

2001-02-16 Thread haroldnjoe

I've read here a couple of times that PIX's don't route. Period. In light of
this I'm left a little confused as to a proposed network map I was given
recently.

The core layer router is a 3640 linking all of our branch offices together.
From the 3640, there is an ethernet connection to a PIX 515R.  From the PIX,
there is another ethernet connection to a 1750 router. The 1750 connects via
T1 to our ISP.  There is yet another ethernet connection from the PIX to the
isolation lan, on which resides an internet mail/web server and a VPN 3000
concentrator.

If PIX's don't route, what subnet is the isolation lan going to sit on?  As
I understand it, the PIX will be providing NAT functionality for the 3640
and everything behind it.  So I would assume that the T1 and ethernet
interfaces on the 1750, the outside interfaces on the PIX, and everything in
the isolation lan including the VPN concentrator will have to have public IP
addresses which will be given to us by our ISP.  The way the map is layed
out, it looks to me like the isolation lan would have to be on its own
subnet.

What am I missing?  If the PIX doesn't route, do it's ethernet interfaces
reside on the same subnet as the isolation lan?  If so, then the ethernet
interface on the 1750 must also be on that subnet, right?

This is the proposed network map that Cisco's presale engineers gave me.
I'm sure it's a solid design, but I'm still trying to work out the details
so that I understand what I'm implementing (always a good thing, I think).

RE: Firewalls and VPNs

2001-02-16 Thread Evan Francen

The PIX does route, but it is not a router.  You can add static routes:
pixfirewall(config)# route
usage: [no] route if_name foreign_ip mask gateway [metric]

or, you can run RIP to broadcast default route or run passive RIP:
pixfirewall(config)# rip
usage: [no] rip if_name default|passive [version 1|2] [authentication
text|
md5 key key id]

The PIX can be configured differently (hardware-wise) depending on your
needs.  We currently run 2-515UR's each with 6 interfaces (inside, outside,
and 4 DMZs).  Each interface on the PIX is a seperate Fast Ethernet segment,
and routing between them is done by the PIX.

To display the route table on a PIX:
pixfirewall(config)# show route
outside 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 63.X.X.X 1 OTHER static
WEB 10.X.X.0 255.255.255.0 10.X.X.X 1 CONNECT static
dmz3 10.X.X.0 255.255.255.0 10.X.X.X 1 CONNECT static
  SQL 172.16.X.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.X.X 1 CONNECT static

  outside 198.133.219.25 255.255.255.0 63.X.X.X OTHER static

The route table can be modified to point anywhere, really.  Just as you
could a router.

Hope this helps,

I've read here a couple of times that PIX's don't route. Period. In light of
this I'm left a little confused as to a proposed network map I was given
recently.

The core layer router is a 3640 linking all of our branch offices together.
From the 3640, there is an ethernet connection to a PIX 515R.  From the PIX,
there is another ethernet connection to a 1750 router. The 1750 connects via
T1 to our ISP.  There is yet another ethernet connection from the PIX to the
isolation lan, on which resides an internet mail/web server and a VPN 3000
concentrator.

If PIX's don't route, what subnet is the isolation lan going to sit on?  As
I understand it, the PIX will be providing NAT functionality for the 3640
and everything behind it.  So I would assume that the T1 and ethernet
interfaces on the 1750, the outside interfaces on the PIX, and everything in
the isolation lan including the VPN concentrator will have to have public IP
addresses which will be given to us by our ISP.  The way the map is layed
out, it looks to me like the isolation lan would have to be on its own
subnet.

What am I missing?  If the PIX doesn't route, do it's ethernet interfaces
reside on the same subnet as the isolation lan?  If so, then the ethernet
interface on the 1750 must also be on that subnet, right?

This is the proposed network map that Cisco's presale engineers gave me.
I'm sure it's a solid design, but I'm still trying to work out the details
so that I understand what I'm implementing (always a good thing, I think).

I know the Pix is not a router, but does it route? Well, if making decisions
about where to send traffic based on layer 3 info is routing then I would
argue it does route. It does not forward traffic based on layer 2 info so

It routes traffic to the appropriate interface. Can someone else shed some

 Hi, all.
 I might have posted something similar to this not too long ago but I
 might
 not have beed specific enough. Here's the story:
 
 HostA ---Router1---Router9HostB
 
 If i traceroute from within Router1 to HostB, it goes through.

Which leads me to believe Router 9 is not filtering high UDP packets, ICMP
Time Exceeded, or ICMP Destination Port Unreachable.

 But if i do the same from HostA, it stops at Router9.

Router 9 may be filtering ICMP echo reply packets. (Echo request packets
go through because Host B's traceroute stops at Router 1 not at 9.) A
Windows host uses ICMP Echo (instead of high port UDP) packets when using
"tracert". Everyone else traceroutes normally.


 The same thing happens when tracerouting from HostB's end, it stops
 at Router1.

I wonder if it's the access-lists? 

 So i checked with another network that also has a route to Router9,
 ans the same story happens. From the Router-Y the trace gets to
 HostB. But from Host-Y it stops at Router9.
 Has anyone else seen this and figured out the cause?


Check if "ping" from the routers to each of the hosts works.

Re: IGRP to EIGRP conversion #2

2001-02-16 Thread Robert Padjen

Timothy -

I think that you've asked this a few times but never
with this type of information. Let's get things a bit
more organized with all due respect. I really would
like to help you as migrations to EIGRP can be tricky.

First, what are the models and memory installations of
the routers? Second, what are the remote links and
their utilizations? Third, are the remotes all stubs -
just an Ethernet on the other side? Is the frame-relay
configuration point to point or multipoint?

I ask because EIGRP usually does not do well in
hub-and-spoke designs. This is due to the number of
neighbor relationships that are established. With five
neighbors and solid routers you might be fine, but
growth would be a concern. Since you are running F/R
you might want to consider ODR, which would take no
additional bandwidth. You might also want to look at
RIP v2. EIGRP is really good for larger, more complex
networks. Its usually overkill for smaller hub/spokes,
which usually are in processor/memory challenged
networks.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Re: Which Job Should I Take?

2001-02-16 Thread Robert Padjen

An interesting choice. Two thoughts come to mind:

1) Choose one. Now, how do you feel about that choice?
Most people feel buyers remorse - you are looking for
the reasons that you feel the pit in the stomach.

2) You are usually best off from a career perspective
working with others. I say this as the overnight shift
typically has fewer resources around and fewer
opportunities for promotion, etc. The pre-IPO issue is
of concern - you need to go further though. What is
their funding, business model, revenue and cash flow,
and opportunity for advancement. IF they are paying
the same salary but the options are bonus then you are
simply comparing one lay-off opportunity for another.
Are you better off with some great risk for more
opportunity that could get you the next position
faster?

Re: Converting from IGRP to EIGRP

2001-02-16 Thread Robert Padjen

Cisco provides a feature called automatic
redistribution (or something like that). If you make
the process ID/AS number for EIGRP the same as IGRP on
the router it will automatically redistribute in both
directions.

This is a bad idea for all but the simplest networks.
In the best redistributions a designer wants to
prevent a route from coming back and looping (AD and
metric should normally prevent this, but it helps to
know your network). Also, summarization and manual
control of the routes is prefered for EIGRP under most
circumstances. Lastly, why lose control over somehting
that is so simple - automatation indicates that the
administrator does not understand the requirements,
which would usually complicate troubleshooting.

 Subject: Firewalls and VPNs
 
 
 I've read here a couple of times that PIX's don't
 route. Period. In light
 of
 this I'm left a little confused as to a proposed
 network map I was given
 recently.
 
 The core layer router is a 3640 linking all of our
 branch offices together.
 From the 3640, there is an ethernet connection to a
 PIX 515R.  From the
 PIX,
 there is another ethernet connection to a 1750
 router. The 1750 connects
 via
 T1 to our ISP.  There is yet another ethernet
 connection from the PIX to
 the
 isolation lan, on which resides an internet
 mail/web server and a VPN 3000
 concentrator.
 
 If PIX's don't route, what subnet is the isolation
 lan going to sit on?  As
 I understand it, the PIX will be providing NAT
 functionality for the 3640
 and everything behind it.  So I would assume that
 the T1 and ethernet
 interfaces on the 1750, the outside interfaces on
 the PIX, and everything
 in
 the isolation lan including the VPN concentrator
 will have to have public
 IP
 addresses which will be given to us by our ISP. 
 The way the map is layed
 out, it looks to me like the isolation lan would
 have to be on its own
 subnet.
 
 What am I missing?  If the PIX doesn't route, do
 it's ethernet interfaces
 reside on the same subnet as the isolation lan?  If
 so, then the ethernet
 interface on the 1750 must also be on that subnet,
 right?
 
 This is the proposed network map that Cisco's
 presale engineers gave me.
 I'm sure it's a solid design, but I'm still trying
 to work out the details
 so that I understand what I'm implementing (always
 a good thing, I think).
 
 Thanks for your time,

Newbie question concerning NAT

2001-02-16 Thread Stephen Hoover

Dear List,

Been reading the list and learning lots of cool things over the past few
months. This is the first time I have posted, and I have some questions
regarding NAT.

We have a T1 coming into the office on Cisco 1604 with an internal
serial WIC. All of my internal to external NAT translastions are working
fine. Where I am running into trouble is doing an external to internal
translation for my email server.

I am trying to understand what exactly the nat commands are doing - I
haven't been able to find real good documentation on the commands. What I
have found on Cisco's site seems pretty basic to me.

My mail server's internal IP is 172.16.2.4, the external is
216.143.254.250. When I put in this command:

ip nat inside source static 172.16.2.4 216.143.254.250,

everything works well, but it appears that that command opens all ports.
When I remove that command and put in:

ip nat inside source static tcp 172.16.2.4. 25 216.143.254.250 25
ip nat inside source static tcp 172.16.2.4 110 216.143.254.250 110,

mail transfers fine, but then I can no long ping the server externally -
which I would like to be able to do to check for problems at home. The other
problem is, when I have all ports open with the first nat command, my users
can resolve our DNS name to the internal address of 172.16.2.4. When I use
the second commands I listed (effectively closing other ports), the internal
clients resolve the name to the external IP address and is noticeably slower
transferring mail. It's as though it is sending mail over the T1 to the port
on the other side and back to the server.

So my questions is this: what series of nat commands (or ACL's) do I
effectively close all the unused ports on my internal mail server from the
outside, but still be able to ping remotely and have the internal users
resolve the name to the internal address?

Thanks in advance to all who offer help!

Performance of CEF over Fast Switching

2001-02-16 Thread Kevin Wigle

John, Bob, Raj, Phillip and the Group,

I hadn't thought of CEF much as I "thought" it wasn't available on the
smaller routers. i.e. - only on the routers with line cards etc.

However, I just enabled CEF on a 2611 and it created its table on the fly in
no time flat.  The 2611 won't do dCEF however. Also, the smaller routers
can't do cef accounting.

Anyway, now I have to mock something up in the lab to see if we can
determine how much of any improvement CEF will give us.  Since we're not
using CEF anywhere in our network I can't just turn it on without a bit more
research.

If it only lessens the CPU load by a few percent then bigger hardware is in
our future, but if we see gains of 20% or more then CEF would indeed be a
cheap solution.

I noticed that CEF has issues with policy routing and other features - but
so far we're not using any of them.

So, another question - does anyone have any idea/experience on how much CEF
will gain for us?  Given the average 50% load on the router - practically
all switching load???

  Bob, Phil - and the group.
 
  Thanks for the input, gives me more to think about.
 
  Some more history..
 
  This router is a 3620 with OC3 and FastEthernet interfaces.  It has 48
meg
  and is running 12.0(5)XK1.
 
  According to Cisco's docs, the 3620 should be able to handle around
20-40
  kpps.
 
  However, the router shows only around 2.6 kpps almost evenly split
in/out.
 
  I have been unable to verify exactly on CCO but I suspect that a 3620
cannot
  handle (very well) two high-speed interfaces - more specifically if one
is
  OC3.
 
  I have found info where Cisco, when talking about the OC3 interface for
the
  3600 series stated:
 
  "Max two high-speed network modules in a Cisco 3640 (includes Fast
Ethernet,
  ATM, HSSI)"
 
  Now the 3640 has a 100mhz processor and the 3620 has a 80 mhz processor.
 
  I'm wondering if the SAR process is overwhelming the 3620?  I'm sure I
read
  someplace that only one high-speed interface was recommended for the
3620
  but I haven't found that info again.
 
  Considering the low level of traffic, what else could be keeping the cpu
  utilization up so high?  Need more info. let me know!

   If the processor gets too high with legitimate traffic, you can use

Re: Systemic problems at Verizon

2001-02-16 Thread Howard C. Berkowitz

There exist little red caps that fit onto 66 blocks and binding
posts. They're hard to find, though. If someone here knows of
the supplier, I'll buy a few hundred.

In the 60's there was a special red ty-wrap that went around/over
posts/punches for ""national security"" lines. You had to cut same
off to test, and {in theory} requisition a replacement. I've only
see same in BSP's so I've no idea if they ever got much use.

I think the BSP called them Special Service Protection, and there was 
a more stringent version called Special Safeguarding Measures. The 
latter, IIRC, didn't quite qualify as a military grade Protected 
Wireline Distribution System, which went to the extents of 
pressurized conduit with intrusion detectors.


We used to protect leased metallic pairs in a simpler manner; we
parked +130 Tip/-130 Ring on same. When Mr. Green put his butt set
on same; if his fingers didn't alert him, the BANG in his ear did.

Someone did that once with _stranded_ wire, so the strand was fine 
enough to puncture the skin.  I found myself in a corner with very 
little recollection of how I got there, and am really not sure that 
if there had not been a wall there, I would have kept going.  Oh 
well...I didn't freeze to the conductor.

RE: Performance of CEF over Fast Switching

2001-02-16 Thread Phillip Heller

I honestly don't have much experience with it on lower end platforms.  The
two or three cases I can think of, it has only made a ~ 10% difference.

In situations with higher-end hardware (7513, etc), it can drop utilization
by 30% or more.  If cef is run distributed, the utilization is cut even
more.

You should be aware that there are numerous bugs with respect to cef.  cef
adjacencies will become inconsistent, etc.  I'd suggest reading the book
"Inside IOS software architecture".  It has a pretty good section on cef.

RE: Newbie question concerning NAT

2001-02-16 Thread Tom

Stephen,

The second group of commands are much more secure, however as you know you
have restricted port access to a point that keeps out ping (Can be a good
thing!) and DNS resolution.

I would suggest opening TCP AND UDP ports 53 for DNS resolution in addition
to 25 and 110.

That should fix your problem of internal name resolution.

As for Ping, It really is better if you don't allow ping to come in from the
outside.  In your network configuration (I am assuming that it is small),
you are using your router as your security perimeter.  If you start allowing
Ping though, people can find ways to map out your network a bit better, by
restricting ping, you eliminate that potential security risk.  If you want
to be able to ping your mail server from the outside, why not just telnet to
port 25 or port 110 instead.  That would give you the added knowledge about
your mail server operating.

If you must allow ICMP, I would suggest allowing it through CBAC (Firewall
feature set) instead of access lists.  Once you start using access lists on
a router that is in your type of configuration, you have to specifically
allow the protocols that you want in both directions, that can be a daunting
task.  Additionally, that adds a good bit of overhead to your router (A 1600
is not really beefy).

For the record though, Check out:

Dear List,

Been reading the list and learning lots of cool things over the past few
months. This is the first time I have posted, and I have some questions
regarding NAT.

We have a T1 coming into the office on Cisco 1604 with an internal
serial WIC. All of my internal to external NAT translastions are working
fine. Where I am running into trouble is doing an external to internal
translation for my email server.

I am trying to understand what exactly the nat commands are doing - I
haven't been able to find real good documentation on the commands. What I
have found on Cisco's site seems pretty basic to me.

My mail server's internal IP is 172.16.2.4, the external is
216.143.254.250. When I put in this command:

ip nat inside source static 172.16.2.4 216.143.254.250,

everything works well, but it appears that that command opens all ports.
When I remove that command and put in:

ip nat inside source static tcp 172.16.2.4. 25 216.143.254.250 25
ip nat inside source static tcp 172.16.2.4 110 216.143.254.250 110,

mail transfers fine, but then I can no long ping the server externally -
which I would like to be able to do to check for problems at home. The other
problem is, when I have all ports open with the first nat command, my users
can resolve our DNS name to the internal address of 172.16.2.4. When I use
the second commands I listed (effectively closing other ports), the internal
clients resolve the name to the external IP address and is noticeably slower
transferring mail. It's as though it is sending mail over the T1 to the port
on the other side and back to the server.

So my questions is this: what series of nat commands (or ACL's) do I
effectively close all the unused ports on my internal mail server from the
outside, but still be able to ping remotely and have the internal users
resolve the name to the internal address?

Thanks in advance to all who offer help!

Scenario we need help with...

2001-02-16 Thread Sam

We currently have two sites, both with their own PIX firewalls and their own
connections to the Internet via separate ISPs.  We also have a T1 point to
point directly connecting both sites.  Router A has a default route to PIX
A.  Router B has a default route to Router A.  At site A we have a
production web site on a server.  We created a mirror of the web site on a
new server located at site B.  Currently, external DNS resolves our domain
name to an IP address on the PIX located at site A.  We configured the
static mapping on Site A PIX to point to the new web server at site B.  This
has allowed us to host our web site at site B, but we are still not
utilizing our Internet connection at site B for incoming traffic.  What we
would like to do is make DNS changes to direct incoming web traffic to PIX
B.  During the time DNS changes propagate I believe we may receive traffic
via both PIX firewalls.  Once this transition is complete site A will go
away along with the T1 connection.  Any ideas on how we can make this
transition happen successfully without any interruption to our production
web site.  Any thought would be appreciated.

RE: Scenario we need help with...

2001-02-16 Thread MattM

Sam, 

Ultimately you will have to endure some downtime during this move
(approximately 1 hour)
This is the solution I came up with: (and have previously used)
Reduce the TTL on your DNS records to 1 hour. (30 minutes if you're feeling
risky)  Remember that your primary server will remain off line for at least
two days.  Remove your primary DNS server and relocate it to your new
facility.  Note your secondary will continue to resolve host names to the
original IP addresses.   Notify the naming authority (ie. network solutions)
and inform them of the IP change to your primary name server.  While your
primary DNS server is off line, modify the records on the name server to
reflect the new IP addresses and increase the TTL on your DNS records back
to their original setting.  Once the IP address change on your primary name
server is complete then you're ready to go.   Schedule a time when it will
have the least impact on your website and have a buddy at the old location
stop DNS services, and at the same time start DNS services at your new
location.  The only time a user might notice the change is if he had a DNS
record on his recursive server that renewed just before you went to the
switch over.  If you do this at the right time of night hopefully no-one
will notice.
I am aware of another solution involving the arrow-point switches, that
could have a shorter roll-over time, but I have never tried it.

Hope this helps, 
Matthew

RE: alternative to Cisco routers

Subject: Re: alternative to Cisco routers


Depends what you mean by "route."  Linux, or other flavors of UNIX,
work reasonably well in RsD route servers with huge routing tables,
but limited numbers of peering interfaces and no forwarding
requirements.

In a small organization, these do not necessarily impose practical
limits. The major limit there is the time and skill needed for
support. Let's put it this way -- I am quite capable of designing
routers. I use commercial routers in my home office simply because I
have finite time, and I'd rather use my time for generating revenue
than doing administration.  I do administer my UNIX boxes, because I
use them for development and it's productive for me to customize
them.  My environment includes Mac, Wintel, and Sun, because either
someone supplies a particular platform and requires me to use it for
their work, or that I made a certain decision in the past (with
personal dollars) and found no compelling reason to discard a
particular architecture.

Conventional UNIX flavors are interrupt-driven. In general, real-time
operating systems are run-to-completion, because at a certain
real-time load (seen with forwarding, process control, etc.) the OS
cost of servicing interrupts is too high.  Yes, JunOS is a UNIX
derivative, but with a radically rewritten kernel. Without any inside
knowledge, I would suspect that an open implementation that resembles
JunOS would be (at the lower levels) a pthreads interface to a Mach
kernel.

Again for large organizations, forwarding does lend itself to special
hardware, or at least independent processors.  There's no reason that
the route processing for these couldn't live on UNIX/Linux.

Why would you not trust a Linux box to route? What experience or
documentation do you have that would lead you to believe that a properly
configured Linux box could not or would not do the job. There are a lot of
companies using Linux these days. One of largest distributed processing
systems is based on large linux clusters, most of Mariott's reservation
system is based on it. Lot's of ISP's use it as their core e-mail, and web
systems, and I have seen some departmental use of Linux or Windows NT
machines being used as routers.

A cisco router is not that much different in architecture. At the highest
level, It is a processor that runs a unix kernel based OS with some NIC or
serial interfaces and an application designed specifically for routing. The
real difference is in the software that runs on the router. There is no
special ASIC's or processors  on the router. IT is a computer (less intel
pentium processor except in the PIX) w/o the added multimedia and I/O
hardware, driven by a unix kernel running software , very similiar to any
other computer. The real difference is in the application, or software it
runs, not it's hardware architecure.

My understanding is that some of the processors found in the router are the
same that can be found in certain Apple or Macintosh PC's and other
non-windows based cpu's.


This is my humble opinion based on my limited knowledge of the router
architecture. However I agree that it would not be appropriate to place a
linux box at the core of your network there are certainly times or
applications and solutions where it would be fine. It is not designed
specifically for routing, but it will certainly do the job if simple
routing
is all that is needed.

Re: MAC to IP address?

2001-02-16 Thread Larry Lamb

If you're on the local network or have access to a device that is, pull the
ARP table.  In Cisco this is a show ip arp (there are several options
including using the mac address as a option). You can also do it on a system
as well with an arp -a (be sure to do a ping sweep on the networks so all
live addresses show up in the arp cache).

As Jim explained an octet is a byte so 1 octet is 1 byte.  So if you're
getting 100 octets/sec, this is the same as 100bytes/sec or 800 bits/sec.

 One octet = one byte.  Since there is 8 bits in a byte you would multiple
 the octets by 8 to convert to bps.  I personally convert any graphs or

 If your talking about server throughput most people talk in bytes.

Re: no domain controller available

2001-02-16 Thread Scott Froese

I think what he means is that portfast (or its Extreme equivalent) is not
enabled.  Enabling portfast essentially eliminates the full spanning tree
calculation when link is detected on a switchport.  If I'm not mistaken the
port goes directly from blocking to forwarding when portfast is enabled.

So, in its basic form, this is a spanning tree issue.

Or am I way off?

 please explain...
 Why would it be spanning tree.

 technically if i wanted too... i could assign an ip address that is not on
 my VLAN and attach it to the switch... Of course I will NOT be able to
 comunicate but that will not affect spanning tree...

Aye, ye bonny lass.

Does sort of bring a different perspective to the physical layer.

And continuing to think about perspectives, will female error 
detection at the data link layer ever find a male frame to be correct?

Will a male broadcast packet ever ask for directions?

I shudder to consider the implications of socket to me at Transport.

The classical OSI session service, of course, has numerous primitives 
for fallback, resynchronization, who may initiate communication, etc. 
Excellent guidelines for dating.

It is a small mind that limits the Presentation Layer to ASCII versus 
EBCDIC, ASN.1 versus XDR, and even encryption, when world 
expenditures on makeup may approximate those on routers.

The application, however, is the final judge.

Re: Firewalls and VPNs

2001-02-16 Thread anthony kim

A device can best be described by its chief function. You can use a
PIX as a router, just allow everything through. In fact you can use a
router as a firewall, be selective with access lists. Terminology is
flexible as long as you're pragmatic about function.

 Subject: Firewalls and VPNs
 
 
 I've read here a couple of times that PIX's don't
 route. Period. In light
 of
 this I'm left a little confused as to a proposed
 network map I was given
 recently.
 
 The core layer router is a 3640 linking all of our
 branch offices together.
 From the 3640, there is an ethernet connection to a
 PIX 515R.  From the
 PIX,
 there is another ethernet connection to a 1750
 router. The 1750 connects
 via
 T1 to our ISP.  There is yet another ethernet
 connection from the PIX to
 the
 isolation lan, on which resides an internet
 mail/web server and a VPN 3000
 concentrator.
 
 If PIX's don't route, what subnet is the isolation
 lan going to sit on?  As
 I understand it, the PIX will be providing NAT
 functionality for the 3640
 and everything behind it.  So I would assume that
 the T1 and ethernet
 interfaces on the 1750, the outside interfaces on
 the PIX, and everything
 in
 the isolation lan including the VPN concentrator
 will have to have public
 IP
 addresses which will be given to us by our ISP. 
 The way the map is layed
 out, it looks to me like the isolation lan would
 have to be on its own
 subnet.
 
 What am I missing?  If the PIX doesn't route, do
 it's ethernet interfaces
 reside on the same subnet as the isolation lan?  If
 so, then the ethernet
 interface on the 1750 must also be on that subnet,
 right?
 
 This is the proposed network map that Cisco's
 presale engineers gave me.
 I'm sure it's a solid design, but I'm still trying
 to work out the details
 so that I understand what I'm implementing (always
 a good thing, I think).

RE: Ip default gateway

2001-02-16 Thread Erick B.

ip default-gateway works if ip routing is disabled and
the router is basically a host on the network like
your PCs, etc. You would turn IP routing off (no ip
routing) to bridge all traffic for example.

Using ip default-network would let you propagate a
route via IGRP/EIGRP or RIP to a neighbor router also
doing IGRP/EIGRP or RIP and all the rules were met
(IGRP/EIGRP especially - RIP just announces a 0.0.0.0
no matter what ip default-network is pointing to on
the router). ip default-network must use a classful
network address.

ip route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop will forward traffic to
unknown networks. If you have 'no ip classless' and
your next-hop is a directly connected network the
0.0.0.0/0 route won't be used.

--- "West, Karl" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Subject: Book Recommendations


Hello,
I have just ordered:
LAN Wiring, 2nd Edition
James Trulove

I have gone over the book recommendations on the groupstudy web page
but don't see anything that quite fits my needs. Very good books
indeed but they seem to be for very high level professionals or those
on the study track.
I am somewhere in the middle. While I have a current CCNA I have very,
very little hands on. I am soon to be in a position involving a number
of 2600 series routers. The network is campus area type setup,
strictly ethernet save for the one pipe to the outside world (though
likely to bring more in).
I think one of the CCIE study guides will be beyond my skills and
needs?
Internet Routing Architecture looks like it would have many practical
examples a person could use on the job, but not quite for the
environment I will find myself in?
Top Down Network Design looks very good, but I need something more
along a configuration guide. Though I think I may pick this one up in
any case.
Perhaps the best for my case is Introduction to Cisco Router
Configuration?

Any thoughts on which may best suit my particular needs, or other
recommendations, greatly appreciated.

Re: Investment Question about 1900, 2500, and 5000 series equipment

2001-02-16 Thread Jason

They're all definitely on the heading toward end of life phase, but I think
they'd be worthwhile to learn on.  Most labs are made up of 2500s.  The 5000
will get you some CatalystOS experience (I believe that's the term for the
non-IOS based switching OS, although depending on the blades/software
versions may not support newer commands, and the 1900 will get you some
basic IOS-based switch experience.  I'd just look at it as an investment in
training for yourself, and not expect a large resell value, although there
will still be some, if nothing else for another person looking to set up a
lab.

IMHO, the 700 line is a huge waste of time.  Avoid burning time on them and
just study everything else so that you can eat the few questions you get on
them.

When will Cisco dump those 700s anyway?  And now this other non-IOS based

Re: Performance of CEF over Fast Switching

2001-02-16 Thread John Neiberger

We have a 7513 as our backbone router and pre-12.0 it was running on average at maybe 
9-10% CPU.  After upgrading to 12.1 and turning on CEF, that dropped to around 5%.  
That's really not a good test because we were hardly pushing the thing to begin with.  
Still, it does seem to make a noticable difference and we haven't had any problems 
with it.

By the way, off-topic, I seem to have resolved the problems I had with excitemail, so 
I've moved back to using [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Lately, my email address has been changing 
almost daily!

John

 
 John, Bob, Raj, Phillip and the Group,
 
 I hadn't thought of CEF much as I "thought" it wasn't available on the
 smaller routers. i.e. - only on the routers with line cards etc.
 
 However, I just enabled CEF on a 2611 and it created its table on the fly in
 no time flat.  The 2611 won't do dCEF however. Also, the smaller routers
 can't do cef accounting.
 
 Anyway, now I have to mock something up in the lab to see if we can
 determine how much of any improvement CEF will give us.  Since we're not
 using CEF anywhere in our network I can't just turn it on without a bit more
 research.
 
 If it only lessens the CPU load by a few percent then bigger hardware is in
 our future, but if we see gains of 20% or more then CEF would indeed be a
 cheap solution.
 
 I noticed that CEF has issues with policy routing and other features - but
 so far we're not using any of them.
 
 So, another question - does anyone have any idea/experience on how much CEF
 will gain for us?  Given the average 50% load on the router - practically
 all switching load???

  I just checked CCO and there are so many CPU-related bugs in 12.0(5) that
 I stopped counting after a while.  You might want to upgrade, if feasible.
 
  Also, try doing a show align to see if you're getting spurious memory
 access errors.  One of the bugs mentioned a high CPU usage due to these.
 
  HTH,
  John
 
  
   Bob, Phil - and the group.
  
   Thanks for the input, gives me more to think about.
  
   Some more history..
  
   This router is a 3620 with OC3 and FastEthernet interfaces.  It has 48
 meg
   and is running 12.0(5)XK1.
  
   According to Cisco's docs, the 3620 should be able to handle around
 20-40
   kpps.
  
   However, the router shows only around 2.6 kpps almost evenly split
 in/out.
  
   I have been unable to verify exactly on CCO but I suspect that a 3620
 cannot
   handle (very well) two high-speed interfaces - more specifically if one
 is
   OC3.
  
   I have found info where Cisco, when talking about the OC3 interface for
 the
   3600 series stated:
  
   "Max two high-speed network modules in a Cisco 3640 (includes Fast
 Ethernet,
   ATM, HSSI)"
  
   Now the 3640 has a 100mhz processor and the 3620 has a 80 mhz processor.
  
   I'm wondering if the SAR process is overwhelming the 3620?  I'm sure I
 read
   someplace that only one high-speed interface was recommended for the
 3620
   but I haven't found that info again.
  
   Considering the low level of traffic, what else could be keeping the cpu
   utilization up so high?  Need more info. let me know!

Dear group,
   
Investigating a router that is starting to loaded down.  When I do
 a
   sh proc
cpu I get 50% or cpu utilization but the stats don't seem to add
 up to
   50%.
   
Is there another way to try and see where the 50% is coming from?
   
sh proc cpu
CPU utilization for five seconds: 44%/44%; one minute: 50%; five
   minutes:
52%
   
The five second utilization numbers in the above line (44%/44%)
 represent
two things.  The first number is total processor utilization and the
second is processor utilization due to interrupts.  The difference in
these two numbers would be the sum of 5sec utilization by all other
processes.
   
If utilization due to interrupts increases over time, it represents
traffic growth.  If it jumps alot in a short amount of time, it may be
 a
DoS attack.  You can verify the latter by turning on "ip route-cache
 flow"
on suspected interfaces and then looking at the output of "sh ip cache
flow".
   
If the processor gets too high with legitimate traffic, you can use
 cef or
dcef (ip route-cache cef, ip cef distributed).
   
Failing that, you'll probably more beefy hardware.

looking for virtual lab for rent

2001-02-16 Thread Tri Tran

Hi Eveyone,

I am looking for available virtual lab on the Internet
that I can rent time to get hand-on experience with 
Cisco routers and switches and ISDN dial solutions.
Anyone know a virtual that are at a reasonable price,
please let me know.  Mentor labs and ccie bootcamp
labs
are quite expensive for me.  Please help.

Many thanks.

Re: Scenario we need help with...

2001-02-16 Thread Jason

Be aware that the DNS RFC says caching nameservers don't have to honor any
TTL less than 2 days.  This means realistically you could be looking at 2
days worth of downtime globally.  We do these sort of moves on a Friday
evening, and by Monday morning caches are cleared and resolving to the
proper address.

Here's a though, and I'm sure I'm overlooking something:

Bind two IPs to the webserver, the new one and the old one.  That way
traffic will come in and go back out for the proper IP, and the PIX will NAT
them back to the original IP.  You could use route-maps to direct the
traffic out the correct PIX.  I know this worked with no problem for my
Linux box when I cut over to a new ISP when I was multi-homed (no PIXes
involved, just two ISPs and two IPs).

The biggest thing is to test to make sure the box responds with the original
IP address, and not the primary IP.  It's not a problem with my lil' Linux
server.

 Sam,

 Ultimately you will have to endure some downtime during this move
 (approximately 1 hour)
 This is the solution I came up with: (and have previously used)
 Reduce the TTL on your DNS records to 1 hour. (30 minutes if you're
feeling
 risky)  Remember that your primary server will remain off line for at
least
 two days.  Remove your primary DNS server and relocate it to your new
 facility.  Note your secondary will continue to resolve host names to the
 original IP addresses.   Notify the naming authority (ie. network
solutions)
 and inform them of the IP change to your primary name server.  While your
 primary DNS server is off line, modify the records on the name server to
 reflect the new IP addresses and increase the TTL on your DNS records back
 to their original setting.  Once the IP address change on your primary
name
 server is complete then you're ready to go.   Schedule a time when it will
 have the least impact on your website and have a buddy at the old location
 stop DNS services, and at the same time start DNS services at your new
 location.  The only time a user might notice the change is if he had a DNS
 record on his recursive server that renewed just before you went to the
 switch over.  If you do this at the right time of night hopefully no-one
 will notice.
 I am aware of another solution involving the arrow-point switches, that
 could have a shorter roll-over time, but I have never tried it.

 Hope this helps,
 Matthew

 Subject: Scenario we need help with...

 We currently have two sites, both with their own PIX firewalls and their
own
 connections to the Internet via separate ISPs.  We also have a T1 point to
 point directly connecting both sites.  Router A has a default route to PIX
 A.  Router B has a default route to Router A.  At site A we have a
 production web site on a server.  We created a mirror of the web site on a
 new server located at site B.  Currently, external DNS resolves our domain
 name to an IP address on the PIX located at site A.  We configured the
 static mapping on Site A PIX to point to the new web server at site B.
This
 has allowed us to host our web site at site B, but we are still not
 utilizing our Internet connection at site B for incoming traffic.  What we
 would like to do is make DNS changes to direct incoming web traffic to PIX
 B.  During the time DNS changes propagate I believe we may receive traffic
 via both PIX firewalls.  Once this transition is complete site A will go
 away along with the T1 connection.  Any ideas on how we can make this
 transition happen successfully without any interruption to our production
 web site.  Any thought would be appreciated.


 ISP A - Site A PIX - Router A
 /\
 InternetT1 Point to Point
 \/
 ISP B - Site B PIX - Router B


 Thanks in advance
