RE: Problem Solved: WAS Re: OT: Serves Me Right - DHCP problem [7:54698]

2002-10-02 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No it's always the Id-10-t's! (that's us ... Humans!)
Routers and servers always work, until we decide to configure them ;-)

Sorry for getting so late into this thread,only catching up with emails now,
The problem with hibernating / and suspend on w2k/WinXP computers, is also
this:
If the user suspends or hibernates his computer, goes to another location,
First plugs the NIC Cable in and then resumes from his session, the OS will
keep the old DHCP address. The computer doesn't realise that the network
location has changed. Of course if you resume and THEN plug in the cable, it
would get sorted out, unless the new location doesn't have a DHCP server, in
which case, WinDows will tell you that an error has occurred while
reconnecting to the network. 

Hope this helps (although it may be a bit too late)

Subject: Problem Solved: WAS Re: OT: Serves Me Right - DHCP problem
[7:54661]


fortunately, smarter people than I took the troubleshooting.

The problem was this:

The Network Admin decided to use a DHCP super scope on the Win2K server,
with several DHCP subscopes ( one for each office ) underneath.

He had understood that the purpose of the superscope was to  pass values
common to all subscopes - things like NTP server, DNS server, SMTP server -
while things like the default gateway would remain with the sub scopes.

Turns out this was a misunderstanding. The superscope ( apparently, if I
understand what I am being told ) is only for segments where there are
numbers of subnets on the same wire. This actually might explain why
Microsoft tech support misunderstood what was happening, and gave the
seemingly ludicrous advice to revert back to a Big Flat Bridged Network.
They were actually saying something else, but we misinterpreted.

As of today, the customer is testing, without the superscope in place, and
all appears well. Win2K and WinXP workstations are mobile, and are behaving
the way many of you described as proper.

See- the problem is always a server problem. It's NEVER the routers ;->

MPPP can increase the encapsulation overhead, but it does so only when it
fragments a packet.  The standard PPP encapsulation is 48bits (32bit header
+ 16bit FCS), with MPPP fragments an additional fragment header (16 or
32bit) is added.  The amount that this increases the overhead compared to
standard PPP would depend on your average packet size.  I would imagine that
it's going to be considerably less than 12.5% though.

A more relevant thing to consider is the way that IOS deals with the
packets.  With MPPP the router first looks up the packet's destination in
the route-cache, hands the packet to the virtual interface, the virtual
interface code then decides whether to fragment the packet and passes the
fragments to the physical interface(s) for encapsulation.  If you use equal
cost load balancing, the packet is passed directly to the physical interface
without virtual interface processing.  Also, traditionally cisco's HDLC
implementation was more efficient than the PPP implementation, but take that
with a pinch of salt, as software changes, and IOS PPP may have improved by
now.

Here's a sample config from CCO doing exactly what you're talking about.
Personally I'd probably go with equal cost load balancing over HDLC
encapsulation if it's an all cisco network though.  It makes the config
simpler, and I'm a big believer in Occam's Razor :)

Cable Broadband Question!!!! [7:54700]

2002-10-02 Thread Matt

Hi,

Can anyone offer me any advice on whether it's possible to configure one of
my cisco routers to work as a cable broadband router instead of having to
purchase a model that specifically does the task.

I currently have a 1601R, 1603R and 2 x 2503 and im sure  somebody last year
had something posted about being able to use one of these routers..

Any help would be appreciated

I have a question regarding VPN setup,

I have some clients connect to me with 828 G.Shdsl routers, most 
of the also have PIX 501 and can tunnel between them selfs
then I have a 2610 Router that routes the internet traffic from the
clients to the internet, Now they want to be able to VPN in from the
internet, and connect to there network, so the Problem is 
what can I use that can take a VPN connection and only send it to
one network, depending on who made the VPN connection

can I use the VPN conncentrator 3005
a PIX 506, or just the 2610 Router

You can use the VPN Concentrator and create groups and set up routes to

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-oriented? [7:54707]

2002-10-02 Thread Peter van der Voort

Some documentation may say that it's connection oriented because you have to
set up a PVC (or an SVC) so you pre-establish a connection.

But in fact it's connectionless, since it doesn't have, like you say, a
retransmission system or error checking mechanism
like TCP.

And the terms connection oriented and connectionless, refer to the protocol,
not to the circuit.

Frame-Relay is connection-oriented because of the establishment of virtual
circuits, that is, before any packet transfer, there is already an
established path.


Hope this helps.

As are many things in networking, It Depends.

FR is connection-oriented (without user-controlled connection and 
disconnection phases) as far as its topology.  That refers to the 
endpoints, remembering FR is an access rather than a backbone 
protocol.

FR does not do error correction.  Just because something is 
connection-oriented doesn't mean it does error correction. FR does do 
error detection and a primitive form of congestion notification.

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]

2002-10-02 Thread \"\"B.J. Wilson\"\"

Well, I tend to look at things from a "global" or "Layer 1 through 7"
perspective: does Frame Relay perform the same functions that TCP does?  In
other words, does it perform a check to make sure every single IP packet (or
Frame Relay frame) makes it from the ingress point of the Frame cloud to the
egress point?  I don't believe it does, and therefore I consider it
connectionless.

Now, from a *test* perspective (g...), I suppose the "correct" answer is
"connection-oriented" due to the reasons that Peter specified.

Subject: RE: ccnp routing [7:54579]


I sat this yesterday!

It is a bit differnet, and in my opinion, better.

Better because there is actual router simulation involved. I had to
configure OSPF on one!

I was caught out on IS-IS as I only started to study that at 6am the morning
on the exam. My diligence was rewarded with %20 on IS-IS content. I fared
better overall and go an excellent overall score (considering my performance
on IS-IS).

It focussed mainly on IS-IS (approx 10 questions), OSPF and BGP. Very little
on EIGRP. I have only really ever configured EIGRP and BGP and I still did
ok. Never seen OSPF before or since!

I studied for one week beforehand. I used the old Ciscopress 503 exam guide.
This was ok and went into more depth than the exam did. I borrowed the
course notes for the IS-IS content, but did not retain anything much in the
hour between 6am and 7am!

IMHO, you will be fine with having done the course and a bit of revision.
Some have said in cramsession it was way hard - only hard if you have not
prepared well! I relied on my practical experience and just browsed the
book. In the final 10 minutes, I was sure I had failed, as all the IS-IS
questions were at the end. I was running through my head when I should
resit, only to be surprised (really surprised...) that I had passed!

Thinking of the subject again, I would have to come back to what I've said
before.

TCP is connection oriented because there's the three-way handshake session
establishment. It's reliable because of the retransmission and error
checking mechanismns.

UDP is connectionless, because there's no session establishment and it's
unreliable because of a lack of retransmission and error checking
mechanismns.

Frame relay is connection oriented because of the establishment of a
circuit, but unreliable because there are no retransmission and error
checking mechanismns.

X25 is connection oriented and reliable.

Subject: RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]


Well, I tend to look at things from a "global" or "Layer 1 through 7"
perspective: does Frame Relay perform the same functions that TCP does?  In
other words, does it perform a check to make sure every single IP packet (or
Frame Relay frame) makes it from the ingress point of the Frame cloud to the
egress point?  I don't believe it does, and therefore I consider it
connectionless.

Now, from a *test* perspective (g...), I suppose the "correct" answer is
"connection-oriented" due to the reasons that Peter specified.

This is an unfortunate and all-too-common occurrence: the discrepancy between
marketing, and how things actually work.  Cisco is a victim of it (e.g.
"hybrid" routing protocol), but Microsoft is arguably the worst offender.

RE: Bootp Relay [7:54725]

2002-10-02 Thread Ben W

what is 110.44.23.7 and 192.24.1.19?  Your DHCP servers?  Usually you will
put the ip helper-address command on the interface that is your inside
networks default gateway.  I don't see ethernet 1 or ethernet 2 being your
inside default gateway.

For example, your inside network is 192.168.1.0/24 and the default gateway
is 192.168.1.1, then on the interface that is 192.168.1.1 you need the ip
helper-address command.  That way the DHCP broadcasts will hit the default
gateway, then the default gateway will forward to your helper address.

RE: Filtering NT domain listings at the router [7:54668]

2002-10-02 Thread Roberts, Larry

Guess that I should have been a littler clearer on what is going on.

Out at remote offices we have users/Tech's installing software in testing
environments. There is no reason for their local Test Domain to be seen
outside of that office. 

This is separate from our Single production domain, which as you can imagine
needs to be visible and accessible everywhere.

Some offices do have separate LAB interfaces or VLAN's for these testing
environment, but those that don't and still put up test domains get those
"really creative : ) " Domain names floating everywhere.

My goal in all this, or what I'm trying to accomplish, is make it so that at
any office, I only see our corporate Domain, and perhaps, a local domain if
the office doesn't have a test lab.

I am working with our NT Server guys to see how they can lock this down as
well, and I suspect that the actual job may land on them with filtering WINS
updates.



Thanks

Larry

I could be wrong here, but you shouldn't have to block these advertisements.
They should get blocked by default. From what I understand, the default
behavior would be that you would not see NT domains that aren't local.
Resource advertisement on NT networks is based on NetBIOS naming, which uses
UDP in a TCP/IP environment, and sends to the broadcast address, which
should not be forwarded by routers.

So I would look for a non-default router configuration line, in particular
an ip helper address that is causing broadcasts to leak over into your
network.

Unless Cisco has finally changed this annoying behavior recently, (I think I
heard that they did?), configuring a helper address causes lots of UDP
broadcast traffic to get forwarded. You might have added a helper address to
get DHCP to work and as a side affect caused the following broadcasts to
also get forwarded:

TFTP (port 69)
DNS (port 53)
Time (port 37)
NetBIOS naming (port 137)
NetBIOS datagram (port 138)
TACACS (port 49)

The fix is to add the ip forward-protocol udp command for the stuff you want
and no ip forward-protocol udp for the stuff you don't want.

If this doesn't help, just let us know. Thanks. __

You need to know IS-IS, BGP, EIGRP, and OSPF equally well for the exam
because each exam will be different. When I took my routing exam (the old
one), I had almost all OSPF (I think it was OSPF. I know it was very
one-sided on one of the routing protocols). Other people I talked with said
their exams were very one-sided on different routing protocols (one said
BGP, the other said EIGRP). I'm sure the new exam is the same way. You never

2002-10-02 Thread Binoy K L

Hi friends,

I am preparing for my BSCI. I am totally confused about BGP 
configurations.
I have RouterSim for my cofigurations.

I request you to send me some basic BGP configs. I`ll put up a 
scenario, pls
help me how to solve that.

Situation

Re: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-oriented? [7:54738]

2002-10-02 Thread Troy Edington

Frame-Relay is a connection-oriented protocol, but is considered unreliable,
it requires higher layer protocols to make it reliable (TCP)

Connection oriented does not always mean reliable.

RE: FS: AGS+, good lab router [7:54721]

2002-10-02 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer

I'm suprised it doesn't have any serial ports. Then it would be better.

Also, the AGS doesn't run modern versions of IOS. I think the latest you can
put on it is version 11.0. This could make it hard to do labs that use new
commands.

It's very noisy and generates lots of heat and requires lots of power.

But the price is good! It's quite bulky, but not too heavy, so shippnig
shouldn't be too bad.

RE: Frame Relay: connectionless or connection-orie [7:54707]

2002-10-02 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer

Well said. I'm glad you corrected yourself. ;-) Frame Relay is
connection-oriented. An end point can't send data until a virtual circuit
has been established. But it doesn't offer a reliable service. If a frame
arrives damaged, the recipient knows this (because the FCS doesn't match the
sender's), but the recipient simply drops the frame. An upper layer, such as
TCP, would have to notice the lack of ACK and retransmit. Frame Relay does
error detection, but no error correction.

RE: Confused about MTU size [7:54689]

2002-10-02 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer

I agree that it doesn't sound like an MTU problem. There are often problems
with MTU when DSL, VPNs, tunnels, etc. are used, so people might jump to
that conclusion. But e-mail messages are often very short and would easily
fit into most MTUs even after overhead. To test whether it's an MTU problem,
try some oversized pings.

The MTU issue occurs when a full-sized packet arrives at an interface that
needs to squeeze it into an MTU along with the overhead. The interface could
fragment, but maybe the application or transport layer set the Don't
Fragment bit. Quite a few applications do that as part of their MTU
discovery process. The problem is made worse if there's an access list that
is blocking the ICMP "Fragmentation required but DF bit set" message.

Here's a Cisco article on MTU:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/105/56.html

This isn't a criticism of the original poster, who was already doubting the
people who told him it was an MTU problem, but it does give me a chance to
get on my soapbox about troubleshooting methods. A lot of people
troubleshoot using the technique we learned in grade school to match items
from Column A with items from Column B. ;-) Column A has network types and
Column B has most common problem for network type. It's important to know
about common problems, but it's just as important to gather data, research
symptoms, and use logic and reasoning.

Cisco's troubleshooting method really does work: 

1. Define the problem.
2. Gather facts.
3. Consider possibilities.
4. Create an action plan.
5. Implement the action plan.
6. Observe the results.
7. Do problem symptoms stop?

If no, go back to 4 or possibly to 2.
If yes, problem resolved, document the results.

OK, off my soapbox now!  :-)

Add the parameter "67" or you'll forward many types of UDP broadcasts, not
just BootP (DHCP) broadcasts which go to UDP port 67.

This should be the interface where the UDP DHCP broadcasts are coming into,
in other words, usually the LAN where the clients reside.

>  ip helper-address 110.44.23.7

The parameter should be the address of the DHCP server or the network where
the server resides. If you use network, the router will forward the packet
as a broadcast. If you use the actual address, the router will forward the
packet as a unicast packet.

This could be another LAN where clients reside?

And there are connectionless reliable protocols, although some are rare.
 Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
 802.2 LLC Class 3
 X.25 Fast Select (you can argue here)
 Appletalk Transaction Protocol
These are some that come to mind.

Re: Config-register???? [7:54632]

2002-10-02 Thread Bruce Enders

Shawn,
There one other "gotcha" where the "break enabled" bit 8 of the
config-register can bite you. You are correct that having break enabled
and having a console device connected could be dangerous because someone
could inadvertently send a break sequence and drop the router into
Rommon. Be aware that NOT having a console device connected could be even
more dangerous. In a significant number of instances where bit 8 was left
"off" in a router, (0x2002) I have seen the router drop into Rommon when
a console device was connected to the console interface! It turns out
that a "break sequence" can be very closely approximated by the "noise"
generated in plugging or unplugging the console cable! There was even one
report of an extended console cable in a large "NOC" that was plugged
into a console and laying on the floor that was ultimately linked to a
Core router intermittently dropping into Rommon. All I can report for
certain is that once this cable was removed from the console connection
on the router, the problem disappeared.
There are a very limited set of circumstances where having the "break
enabled" is a viable configuration on a Cisco router used for production.
:-( I actually had one person tell me that he left the break enabled so
that he could regain control in the eventuality that his routers went
berserk. I tried to point out that if he was close enough to be connected
to the console in that scenario, he could probably manage to flip the
power switch instead. :-P
I'm not certain the message got through,,, :-D

  Mark,
  
  Actually, the 'break disabled' is the default setting.  It means that
  after rommon passes control to the IOS, you can't issue a break to get
  back to rommon.  You can always issue the break before control is passed
  to IOS, regardless of this setting.
  
  If you turn this setting off, you can send a break at any time to get to
  rommon -- even after the router is up and running.  This can be a Very
  Bad Thing (tm), especially if you leave something connected to the
  console port all the time.
  
  Thanks,

Also, according to the nifty Config-Register calculator (from Boson's
website), the Break Key is disabled.  So, you'll need to let the router
boot normally, and then, via the console, go into config mode and change
the config register to your desired setting.

ATM Question? [7:54753]

2002-10-02 Thread Jason Viera

This may be a stupid question, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Is there any
possible way with any router platform or IOS to turn a router with
multipleATM interfaces into an ATM switch. Once again, this is a wild
question, stemming from the fact that it can be done with frame-relay. Since
this is probably very unlikely, what are the groups opinions on the various
CCIE R&S rack rentals online, and which ones seem to provide the highest
ROI. TIA!!!

RE: Need help on BGP [7:54737]

2002-10-02 Thread Carl Timm

I'm not exactly sure what your scenario is, so I will give you a new one and
walk you through it.

Scenario:
You have 4 routers: R1, R2, R3, R4. R1 is in AS100, R2 and R3 are in AS200,
and R4 is in AS300. R1's interface S0 is connected to R2's interface S0.
R2's interface S1 is connected to R3's interface S1. R3's interface S0 is
connected to R4's interface S0. The devices are configured with the
following addressing:
R1 interface S0 - 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
R2 interface S0 - 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.0
R2 interface S1 - 10.10.20.1 255.255.255.0
R3 interface S1 - 10.10.20.2 255.255.255.0
R3 interface S0 - 10.10.30.1 255.255.255.0
R4 interface S0 - 10.10.30.2 255.255.255.0


1. Configure IBGP for R2 and R3. Make sure the IGP routing table and the BGP
routing table do not need to be in synch for the BGP routes to appear in the
routers routing table.
2. Configure EBGP for R2 and R1.
3. Configure EBGP for R3 and R4.


Answer for question 1:
R2#conf t
R2(config)#router bgp 200  
R2(config-router)#no synch  
R2(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.20.2 remote-as 200
R2(config-router)#exit
R2(config)#exit
R2#

R3#conf t
R3(config)#router bgp 200  
R3(config-router)#no synch  
R3(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.20.1 remote-as 200
R3(config-router)#exit
R3(config)#exit
R3#

Explination for question 1:
The router bgp 200 command creates BGP AS200 on the device. The no synch
command turns off synchronization between the IGP routing table and the BGP
routing table. The neighbor 10.10.20.2 remote-as 200 command configures R2
as an IBGP neighbor of R3 since the remote AS number is the same as it's AS
number. The neighbor 10.10.20.1 remote-as 200 command configures R3 as an
IBGP neighbor of R2 since the remote AS number is the same as it's AS number.

Answer to question 2:

R1#conf t
R1(config)#router bgp 100  
R1(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.10.2 remote-as 200
R1(config-router)#exit
R1(config)#exit
R1#

R2#conf t
R2(config)#router bgp 200  
R2(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.10.1 remote-as 100
R2(config-router)#exit
R2(config)#exit
R2#

Explination to answer 2:
In these configurations EBGP is configured because the remote AS # is
different than the devices AS #.

Answer to question 3:

R3#conf t
R3(config)#router bgp 200  
R3(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.30.2 remote-as 300
R3(config-router)#exit
R3(config)#exit
R3#

R4#conf t
R4(config)#router bgp 300  
R4(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.30.1 remote-as 200
R4(config-router)#exit
R4(config)#exit
R4#

Explination to answer 3:
Same as explination to answer 2.


The final configs would look like this:

R1#conf t
R1(config)#router bgp 100  
R1(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.10.2 remote-as 200
R1(config-router)#exit
R1(config)#exit
R1#

R2#conf t
R2(config)#router bgp 200  
R2(config-router)#no synch  
R2(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.20.2 remote-as 200
R2(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.10.1 remote-as 100
R2(config-router)#exit
R2(config)#exit
R2#

R3#conf t
R3(config)#router bgp 200  
R3(config-router)#no synch  
R3(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.20.1 remote-as 200
R3(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.30.2 remote-as 300
R3(config-router)#exit
R3(config)#exit
R3#

R4#conf t
R4(config)#router bgp 300  
R4(config-router)#neighbor 10.10.30.1 remote-as 200
R4(config-router)#exit
R4(config)#exit
R4#


I hope this answers what you were looking for.

Cisco Security Specialist 1: To self-study or not to [7:54756]

I am interested in pursuing the CSS1 designation. Can
anyone tell me if this cert is a bear without the
necessary training. 

There is a slight chance I may be able to get my
employer to spring for the classes but I need to find
out more before I start 'pulling teeth'.

I have self-studied up to the CCNP level but I'm not
sure I'll be able to get to all gear I need for this
cert. Any input is appreciated.

Wireless Netowrk [7:54757]

2002-10-02 Thread Azhar Teza

In a campus network the customer would like to have a wireless LAN since all
the users in the other building are Telecommuters.  Wireless has its own
security, but they would still like to have PIX between this wirless network
and the main network.  PIX is the device which is mainly used to isolate the
private network from the public network, but in this scenerio the PIX would
be used between two Private Networks. Here is the details: Users on Wirelss
subnet 172.16.10.0 would connect to the Cisco 2900 switch. The PIX's outside
interface will be part of this subnet.  The PIX Internal address would then
connect to another Cisco switch where customer main network resides,
Servers, Applications etc. This subnet is 192.168.10.0.  Conduits will be
opened for Wirless users to access this network. This should work fine.  I
just wanted to have an advise from the forum users to make sure that it will
work.

Re: Wireless Netowrk [7:54757]

2002-10-02 Thread Darrell Newcomb

It'll work however:
1)You're not offering much security unless the conduits are for
protocol/applications of a completely benign nature, which I'm confident the
probably are not.
2)By doing this the data traveling between wireless clients and these
opened(conduit) services are at risk of being captured.
3)You've got the administration complexity of maintaining conduits for
approved applications.  This may not be an issue in this environment but it
would be for most.

Placing the pix there and using conduits alone is not doing to offer much
security like most folks hope for from them.  The described situation isn't
providing authentication, decent encryption, nor preventing any random
wireless node from accessing those services.  But then again maybe the
wireless security you mentioned is addressing those sufficiently for the
situation.

I may be way out of line, but there aren't any access lists which may be

RE: Cisco Security Specialist 1: To self-study or not [7:54756]

2002-10-02 Thread Doug Oh

I completed this by self-study, and a moderate lab (3 routers at the time, a
couple of PCs and the PIX 501).  This sufficed for all but the IDS exam. 
For that, I built a FrankenIDS machine and created a Cisco Security Policy
Manager to experiment/practice with.   This allowed me to get a feel for
that technology, although I would not recommend trying that exam without
some sort of lab work.  HTH

Hi !!!
 
If a sensor detects unauthorized activity, are the following possible
action ?
 
(action1) --> Shutdown Interface
(action2) --> Perform a traceroute to the source of the attack
 
 
 
I am taking the Vconsole tests and some of their answers follow this

Need to make an access port very slow on a 2950 [7:54764]

2002-10-02 Thread John Brandis

Hi All,
 
Without going into it to much, I really would like to set some type of
policy where by a user's PC on port 5 of my 2950 switch, has access to the
rest of the LAN at 9.6kb/s..Can this be done on the switch, or do I need to
do this on my 4006 ?

I've heard on this list that a PIX 501 should be enough for the CSS1 cert
because all you need are two interfaces to learn what is needed. I believe
this is correct, but double-check the archives to make sure.

How to dial in & power up home lab?? [7:54768]

2002-10-02 Thread Jake Secrist

Dear GroupStudy,

Here is my interesting dilemma.  I hope someone can lend some insight...

1 - I only have dial-up (no cable modem - i.e. no constant connection to
Internet).
2 - I travel for work, so I'm not home very often.
3 - I have a lab that I would like to use rather often.
4 - I do not want to spend a lot of $$ on long distance to dial up my
lab.
5 - I also do not want to spend a lot of $$ on electricity if the lab is
not in use.
6 - I have (will have) an APC MasterSwitch PDU that I know can be used
to remotely power up/power down the lab.
7 - The lab consists of all 2500 series routers (7 of them).

I do not know if I can dial in to the PDU in order to power up the lab
(this I can figure out).  Once the lab is powered up, is there a way to
have one of the routers dial up my ISP?  But then, how would I know what
the IP address of the router is (since the ISP uses DHCP) in order to
telnet to the lab?

One of the solutions I have thought of is to dial up my PC (with wake on
LAN - if that works on the modem), disconnect.  Then the dial up
connection would be in my startup folder so the PC would dial the ISP
automatically.  Then I would dial up the ISP from wherever I would be.
Then I still have the problem of knowing my IP address.  A friend said
to use ICQ.  I don't know how that works, but will try it.

I think I have covered everything.  Thanks in advance for any help.

Jake Secrist

You can do FRASI on a Router. So you could interconnect ATM interfaces to a

Have a look at one of the dynamic DNS sites, such as tzo.com. I think there

hi, wonder if anyone has used the port security or port protected before, I
am trying to implement the port security feature with 1-2 max mac address
for security reason, is there any implication on  overhead traffic that will
be created with this feature, Also, with the port interface shut down when
more than 2 mac address has been learned, will it turn back to on when the
original mac address learn is plug back in. thanks

Re: Need to make an access port very slow on a 2950 [7:54764]

2002-10-02 Thread Vance Krier

Hey John,

One thing that comes to mind is rate-limiting.  Do you have L3?   Maybe you
could create a new vlan (to make all traffic go through the L3 device) with
a new subnet and drop that port/pc into that vlan.  Then setup an
access-list and rate limit commands to throttle that traffic to 9600.
Something like this:

access-list rate-limit 110 

interface 
rate-limit input access-group rate-limit 110 9600 0 0 conform-action
transmit exceed-action drop
rate-limit output access-group rate-limit 110 9600 0 0 conform-action
transmit exceed-action drop

Good luck,
Vance
