Re: PPP Multilink ISDN BRI [7:56257]

2002-10-24 Thread Dale Kling
Hi Doug, I've had this problem too. Try this command.

isdn fast-rollover-delay

Something about the router trying to redial the same number because it does
recieve busy signal from switch yet instead of rolling over to next number.

HTH,

Dale

Re: VOIP [7:56129]

2002-10-24 Thread Parameswaran S
Hi ,
You may need some basic stuff like
E & M voice port modules connected to a PBX at your central site router( you
can have the extensions for the users which depends upon the hardware cards
available on your PBX) and also depends upon the number of  voice modules on
the router  you will get the concurrent voice call sessions..
And if you have sites connected to your central site which also need this
VOIP facility then you may need a FXS voice port modules at your client
router.and configure the dial peer and dial plan for it..and with the
destination pattern ( route )
And you need to plan your dial plan numbering system and use IOS later than
12.1.
Probably you may refer CCO to get some more ideas.
Thanks,
S.Paramesh

PPP Multilink ISDN BRI [7:56257]

2002-10-24 Thread Doug S
I haven't seen that any other's posters have had this problem, which makes
me think I may be missing something really basic in the configuration.  Any
help is greatly appreciated

I have MPPP configured on two routers' BRI interfaces with the load
threshold set at one, so the second b channel should come up immediately.
Two dialer maps are configured, each pointing to the same ip, using the
different dial strings of the other router's two b channels:

host Capetown
interface BRI0
 ip address 192.168.16.3 255.255.255.0
 no ip directed-broadcast
 encapsulation ppp
 dialer idle-timeout 60
 dialer map ip 192.168.16.1 name SanJose1 broadcast 384010
 dialer map ip 192.168.16.1 name SanJose1 broadcast 384710
 dialer load-threshold 1 either
 dialer-group 1
 isdn switch-type basic-5ess
 isdn spid1 384741 384030
 isdn spid2 384742 384750
 ppp authentication chap
 ppp multilink

host SanJose1
 interface BRI0
 ip address 192.168.16.1 255.255.255.0
 no ip directed-broadcast
 encapsulation ppp
 dialer idle-timeout 60
 dialer map ip 192.168.16.3 name Capetown broadcast 384030
 dialer map ip 192.168.16.3 name Capetown broadcast 384750
 dialer-group 1
 isdn switch-type basic-5ess
 isdn spid1 384701 384010
 isdn spid2 384702 384710
 ppp authentication chap
 ppp multilink

When a host off  Capetown's E0 interface initiates traffic towards SanJose1,
the first B channel comes up, but the second B channel never does.

I've done a lot of debugging (dialer, q931, ppp negotiation) and staring
blankly at it and I see what's happening, but I have no idea why, or how to
correct it.

What's happening is this:
1)Interesting traffic received
2)Dialer dials 384010 on the first B channel
3)Connection is made, PPP LCP, Authentication, and IPCP succeed.
4)Multilink bundle is sucessfully created with BRI0:1 as the only member
5)Load threshold is exceeded.
6)Dialer AGAIN TRIES TO DIAL THE SAME NUMBER - 384010
7)Q931 fails - message back from the isdn switch that the called line is
busy (no surprise)
8)Dialer tries the other number - 384710
9)Error message that 2 dialers are already in use, no free dialers.
(I take this to mean the dialer that originally called 384010, and the
second dialer which again tried to call 384010)

I have successfully MANUALLY got the second B channels to join the same
multilink bundle and stay up,

(Capetown)# isdn call int bri0:2 384710
 
so it seems to be just the one free dialer tieing itself up trying to setup
a call on the second B channel to a number that the first B channel is
already connected to.

Thanks for any help.

(The whole config on both routers is verbatim out of Cisco Sem 6 lab, other
than using appropriate spids and dial strings).

I have been playing with them all for awhile now (F5, Alteon, Local

hardware based products). Unfortunately, I have a side contract, and
they are concrete on using Windows Load balancing...Wait 'til they see
the licensing on multiple Adv. Servers.  I'll let you know how it turns
out. As for the Alteon, Easy to setup and use and monitor.  Good tech
support too.

RE: hate cisco's new site? [7:56236]

2002-10-24 Thread Paul Forbes
You are by no means the only one. I'm composing a letter to our SE
detailing the many ways in which the new site hinders both
troubleshooting and fact-finding. Now, it appears to be a lot more
marketing and significantly less technical.

For example, the way they have classified everything into "software,
hardware and technology" is at best obtuse. How many people trying to
troubleshoot/optimize their infrastructure want to wander around until
they find the appropriate tech note? Wouldn't it be simpler and easier
to have it the way it used to be, by product (e.g. "CallManager") or by
technology (e.g. "EIGRP")?

If enough of us complain, perhaps they'll change it back.

I also think a SlashApp-like RSS feed from CCO would be pretty nice...

Cheers all.

Re: Using PAT with NAT Pools [7:56208]

Add the command overload:

ip nat inside source list 1 pool NATPOOL overload
  
but like I mentioned earlier this does not mean IOS will use NAT until
the last address is used, it seems rather arbitrary wheras the PIX will

Windows Load balancing [7:56244]

2002-10-24 Thread Duncan Wallace
Has anyone had any experience in implementing Windows load balancing a
server cluster ? I have always used hardware based load balancers so I
am somewhat new to the MS flavor. I have a 2621 router and I am
wondering if it is capable of the following.  This is just some
preliminary information gathering, so I thought I would throw it out to
the group while I do my own research.
What Windows 2000 Advanced Server says:
If Network Load Balancing clients are accessing a cluster through a
router when the cluster has been configured to operate in multicast
mode, be sure that the router meets the following requirements:
*   Accepts an ARP
  reply that has one MAC address
  in the payload of the ARP structure but appears to arrive
from a station with another MAC address, as judged by the Ethernet
header 
*   In multicast mode, accepts an ARP reply that has a multicast MAC
address in the payload of the ARP structure 
This allows the router to map the cluster's
  primary IP address and other
 multihomed addresses to the corresponding MAC
address. If your router does not meet these requirements, you can also
create a static ARP entry in the router. Cisco routers require a static
ARP entry because they do not support the resolution of unicast IP
addresses to multicast MAC addresses
 .

I ran into this recently, but the PIX was running 6.1.

You usually have a "standard" one year equipment warranty; that should cover
something like that  Be really really nice when you open a case.  They
usually are willing to help out.

My question only pertains to new equipment. For example, lets say I buy a
brand new PIX online. The place I buy from has one in stock thats been
sitting around for a year and they ship me that one. It has an older OS ,
lets say 5.4 with a few significant bugs. What do I do then? I'm basically
left with a piece of brand new equipment that doesn't work right. I figured
Cisco had a 90 day warranty or soemhting that would cover getting the new

Anyone know about this for sure?

I agree with Mike. If it is brand new out of the box than you can open a
case with TAC and they will be more than glad to help you. If it is refurb
than watch out. Cisco is doing the big crack down on that stuff.

Re: PIX failover problem [7:56199]

2002-10-24 Thread Patrick Donlon
I think you've got your config correct, when any of the interfaces go down
on the active PIX it will switch into standby. So when you reboot the
standby it will cause this to happen, the documentation does say you should
use a separate switch for the failover NICs which should prevent this,
http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/110/failover.html .  Do you use a
failover cable as well, I would have thought the primary would prevent the
failover but I'm not 100 percent sure.

We have been "working" with Cisco on a problem for about a year now
and have determined that we can not get caller name id on our phone
because Bellsouth is sending it in the facility ID field.  Cisco call
manager  will only look at the display IE field.  We have also
checked with two other carriers and they also deliver it in the
facility ID field.
 
My question is...  does anyone get caller name ID on their phones
from external callers?  And if so what carrier do you use and what
kind of switch is it being brought in on?

Re: Using PAT with NAT Pools [7:56208]

Use the overload command though unlike the PIX when you overload,
(PAT) on a router it's kinda arbitrary.  Some connection will use NAT
and others will PAT, it does not wait until the last address in the pool
is used before converting to PAT.

Re: PIX failover problem [7:56199]

2002-10-24 Thread Vamsi Krishna
Hi Pat,
 I have got the correct configuration as mentioned in Cisco. I too think
the primary PIX fails as the failover link goes into failed state as the
secondary is down and secondary PIX will become active as the primary is in
failed state.
 Has anyone faced this problem ? What is the normal practice of
connecting PIX in failover configuration ? through cross over cable or
through a separate switch ?
 Pls reply.

Sorry for the late reply. Our e-mail was backup up and I am not going

We have the Cisco eq. working fine and I am currently trying to get the

so I have to work with the on site tech to configure things.

Once I get it working I will let everyone know, or if not, why it doesn't
work...

RE: Catalyst 8540CSR [7:56172]

I have a client that used to have a pair of them..."chucked them" about
a year ago.  8540's (at least in the L2/L3 LAN-Switching arena) were an
"abortion" of a product; it was merely a stop-gap measure to say that
Cisco had a L3 switch on the market.  With the 6500-series they've got a
capable product now and they have successfully wiped the egg from their
faces.  I have yet to hear of a customer that purchased 8540's to do L3
switching functions that was happy with the purchase.  I have heard that
the ATM version of the 8540's performed quite well (basically an upgrade
to the LS1010) but don't have any personal experience with that.

Larry,

I noticed you have the command "switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q". 

Do you need to configure the interface/port as a trunk when you do the "set
port auxiliaryvlan" command (catos) or the "switch voice vlan" command (ios
switch)? According to Cisco's website, you don't for a catos switch, but you
do for an ios switch:
 
Check this out:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/voice/ip_tele/network/dgcamp
us.htm#xtocid364019

NO TRUNKING HERE ON CATOS SWITCH:

Voice VLAN Configuration

To configure the VVID from the Catalyst software CLI, use the set port
auxiliaryvlan command. You can use this command to set the VVID on a single
port, on a range of ports, or for an entire module. The following example
shows how to display the command syntax:

Console> (enable) set port auxiliaryvlan help

Usage: set port auxiliaryvlan 



(vlan + 1..1000)


In the following example, the VVID is set to 222 for ports 2/1 through 2/3.
When the phone powers up, the switch instructs it to register with VLAN 222.

Console> (enable) set port auxiliaryvlan 2/1-3 222

Auxiliaryvlan 222 configuration successful.


The following examples show how to display which ports are in which
auxiliary VLAN:

Console> show port auxiliaryvlan 222

AuxiliaryVlan auxVlanStatus Mod/Ports

- - -

222 222 1/2,2/1-3

Console> show port 2/1

Port AuxiliaryVlan AuxVlan-Status

- - --

2.1 222 active



-

TRUNKING HERE ON IOS SWITCH:

 

The following is an example of VVID configuration on Catalyst switches
running Cisco IOS at the interface level (for example, Catalyst 3524-PWR and
2900XL):

interface FastEthernet0/1

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

switchport trunk native vlan 

switchport mode trunk

switchport voice vlan 

spanning-tree portfast

switchport mode trust



- Jennifer
PS - are you going to trust the CoS going from phone to switch?

RE: TCP Ack numbers suddenly regress [7:56189]

2002-10-24 Thread Priscilla Oppenheimer
The keepalive process shouldn't cause ACKs to go backwards. It should cause
them to stay the same. This doesn't sound like a keepalive  situation which
should proceed smoothly. This situation involves a RESET which usually
indicates a problem of some sort, although possibly just a minor problem. It
sounds more like a bug in the TCP implementation to me. We would have to see
both sides of the conversation, including what both sides send, not just
what they ACK, to troubleshoot this.

The TCP RFC doesn't cover keepalives. They are mentioned in the Host
Requirements RFC 1122, which is pretty critical of them, but admits that
they MAY be included in a TCP implementation.

After 2 hours (by default) a UNIX system that is using keepalives sends
either any empty segment or a segment with one byte of garbage data. For the
sequence number, it uses the sequence number of the last byte already sent.
This should cause the other side to send the last ACK that it sent.

Example:

Host A sends bytes 100-200, SEQ number = 100
Host B ACKs, ACK number = 201
two hours
Host A sends segment with SEQ number = 200
Host B ACKS, ACK number = 201

To troubleshoot, you can't just look at ACKs anyway. You have to look at
both sides of the conversation. Also look at the timing. Did 2 hours go by?

Also, what's the actual user complaint? Or is this just something you
happened to notice in a trace?

What is the network topology? Where are these hosts and what's in between
them? Is there some sort of "feature" running between them that messes with
TCP? For example a firewall or a router that does TCP Intercept??

Re: Decent modem for dial-up to Cisco routers [7:56202]

2002-10-24 Thread J.D. Chaiken
This doesn't really answer your question.  But in the past, I've used USR
modems connected to a remote reboot device (like an X10 or similar).  When
the modem stopped responding (ie. didnt answer the phone) the rebooter would
pick up and powercycle the device.

There are several such boxes on the market, but not a huge amount of 
operational experience. Believe me, people in the IETF and NANOG are 
very interested to see if they work.  Often, the box does speak BGP 
to the outside (I can't speak to Radware) but it's transparent to the 
user.

One of the major scalability problems in the global Internet is 
user-level multihoming, so non-BGP solutions might be very welcome. 
There certainly aren't any substantial discussions in the IETF or 
IRTF about this, other than in midboxes (load-sharing NAT), some of 
which still need to listen passively to BGP.

I am assuming that the proposed product does optimal route selection, 
not just failover.

If the box doesn't speak BGP, be sure to find out how it decides on 
the preferred ISP. There are several possible strategies: delay 
either to the POP or to selected destinations, utilization on the 
links to the various POPs (obviously this needs to be corrected for 
speed if different), etc.

Some Cisco solutions such as Distributed Director get various 
information from routers in the various paths. That may require 
limited BGP. There are assortments of solutions from various vendors 
that load-balance based on your server loading, but to affect inbound 
traffic, they have to speak some BGP or use much slower DNS.

But I'd be very interested in knowing how a box can know optimal 
routes without either listening to BGP, doing active probes, or 
distributing load by knowing server load.

I saw "jitter" in the title, so with respect to voice:

NetIQ Chariot, along with an Avaya product called Expertnet, can measure
MOS, jitter, delay, and packet loss while simulating voice calls (software
installed on PCs simulate IP phones). Chariot is a very expensive product,
and Expertnet isn't a shrink wrapped product today. Consultants bring it in
and use it on the network and write a report/make recommendations.

RE: Questions about PIX firewall [7:24634]

2002-10-24 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The GUI is great for some things but overall I still like the CLI for
general day-to-day changes.  The GUI is great for monitoring stats such as
CPU, memory, and etc.

In my experience the failover/HA pix solution is very stable.  Depending on
your setup it can be immediate or just quick.  If you're doing LAN based
failover it all depends on how much you trust your network.you can tell
the primary unit to poll the secondary every second if you want but if you
ever have a latency problem then the secondary unit will kick in once it
doesn't receive a response from the primary even though it's working fine.
I've always thought a 5 second interval was appropriate but your mileage may
vary.  If you're doing a local solution with a failover cable then the
secondary unit typically kicks in immediately.  We've done several tests
where we pull the power on the primary and nobody even knows.  From what I
understand it doesn't work 'quite' as fast if the primary unit simply
crashes but I haven't had that happen yet (fingers crossed) so I can't say
for certain.  I have had a couple problems when pushing the load back to the
primary unit.it works, but sometimes you do see a pause in the traffic
flow.

Re: Using PAT with NAT Pools [7:56208]

2002-10-24 Thread trammer
Kind of,

ip nat pool NATPOOL 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.20 netmask 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside source list 1 pool NATPOOL


ip access-list 1 permit 10.1.0.0 0.0.255.255


Where would one go from here to have the NAT pool of 1.10 to 1.20 utilized
and also PAT if every address is used from the pool.

The nat inside source list defines which addresses can be nated from the
pool.  Another form of the command is with the overload statement as you
mentioned.  But if I enter this it will only PAT through the first address
in the pool in testing (192.168.1.10.   I can't determine if it would use
the next address in the pool because of the use of numerous ports.

Will it just dynamically choose from the pool as if they are all PAT
addresses?   If this is the case then it sounds like in the situation I am
trying to address I would be best off defining a static NAT mapping from the
pool to the outside for the specific hosts that I want, and let the rest
PAT.


Hopefully this makes sense.

good intentions and I think once they're completely finished it will be
nice, but at the moment it's hard to navigate.  I suggested that they
allow us to create our own stylized home pages and she said they are
already working on that.

I would love to have that!  My home page would consist of:

Software Center

Service Contract Center

And that's about it.  I'd love to get rid of all the junk they use to

Re: Queuing Question [7:56139]

Just a related note.  You can convert any number of the top queues in Custom
queueing over to Priority queues.  (i.e. you could configure queues 1 - 8 as
priority queues, with the remainder being treated as custom queues only
after queues 1-8 have been serviced).  So it's not surprising that there
would be a Q0 for system traffic that's given strict priority.

Using PAT with NAT Pools [7:56208]

2002-10-24 Thread trammer
Hello,

Quick question that I am having trouble locating the answer on.

Basically I need to know whether you can configure PAT to work in
conjunction with a NAT pool on an IOS router. 12.2.x on 2621?

Ex.  Nat pool of 192.168.1.10-192.168.1.20   Once all nat pool IPs are
taken.  Roll to a PAT on say 192.168.1.21.

Naturally I would think this is possible, but then again I could be wrong.

I know this is possible on the PIX but cannot find specifics for an IOS
router configuration.



Thanks.


Cheers

As an alternative, Radware offers the LinkProof which also allows multiple
ISPs without using BGP.  Their box is a more robust ASIC based design rather
than a PC.  The same hardware is also used in their FireProof and Web Server

RE: Windows meltdown??? [7:56190]

2002-10-24 Thread Arnold, Jamie
Without describing the "major problem" with the network it's hard to
conclude very much, but..a machine becoming the master browser should
not effect much more than the other machines in the workgroup/domain ability
to see other machines on a browse list.  The maximum size of a browse list
is 64K (2500 machines approx) so you don't have much data being transferred.

I would look elsewhere for the solution to the problem.  This is not it.

OT: Decent modem for dial-up to Cisco routers [7:56202]

2002-10-24 Thread Sean C
Hello to all,

Sorry for the off-topic but can anyone suggest a particular brand of modem
that my company should sell to customers for dial-in access to Cisco
routers.  We've used USRobotics (various Couriers, Sportsters and 5686s),
Zooms, Bocas, and Conexants.  The USRobtics seems to need to be reset a lot
(hard to do when no one is at the site), the Zooms tend to put 1720s in
rommon mode when plugged in the console port, Bocas are old and loss their
configs easily.  Anyway, if anyone can write "We use this modem and it's
rock-solid each and every time" than it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Sean

PIX failover problem [7:56199]

2002-10-24 Thread Vamsi Krishna
Hi,
   We are facing a strange problem with PIX failover. We have two PIX =
525 (OS 6.0.1) in failover configuration. When the standby PIX is =
rebooted for maintenance reasons, it came up and became the Active PIX =
(which should not happen). The active PIX showed stateful failover link =
failed and so the PIX was in failed state. Both the PIX are connected =
through a stateful failover link (100Mbps) using a Crossover cable.=20
   Is it a problem because both the PIX are connected using a crossover =
cable? Is it recommended to connect through a switch? Has anyone faced a =
similar problem?

Vamsi

RE: OT: Windows meltdown??? [7:56190]

2002-10-24 Thread Aaron Ajello
I think your network was probably okay.  My guess is there was just a
problem with users getting to shares on the file server, so they screamed
like users always do.

The master browser holds the master list of all available shares - that's
probably simplifying it, but that's how I understand it.

Since this one XP workstation was becoming the master browser, it would be
involved when clients accessing file shares.  Then when this guy turns off
his workstation (you said you couldn't ping it) an election would take place
so the network could figure out who the new master browser is.  Then the guy
comes back and turns his workstation back on and another master browser
election takes place.  This could make the list float around, from one place
to another and possibly be unavailable for short periods, making it seem
like the network is slow when in actuality it's just the process of finding
shares that's slow.

Just my guess.

Hi there, 

in the price list there is an option for PIX Firewall Relicensing for Used
Equipment. 
A brief comparison of the prices shows no difference between the relicensing
prices, and the price for a regular licence. 
I'm not aware of any option from Cisco where they let you download new
software for free when buying used equipment.

Hi all,

I am trying to configure a router on a stick configuration - with 26xx

Router's E0 port is configured like this

int e0/1
no shu
no ip address

int e0/1.1
encap isl 20
ip address 192.168.20.1 255.255.255.0

encap isl 40
ip address 192.168.40.1 255.255.255.0

When I try to do the same thing on CAT 3550's fa0/1 port, I get an error
message like this :

 " Configuring IP routing on LAN subinterface is only allowed if that
subinterface is configured as a part of IEEE 802.10 or dot1q or ISL

But nowhere I find the command "encap isl  " to insert this in
the subinterfaces.


Does anyone has anythoughts on this and how to overcome this?

RE: TCP Ack numbers suddenly regress [7:56189]

2002-10-24 Thread Matthew F. Crane
Ok you don't say what they host systems are but I am going to guess Unix of
some variety, in which case has anyone been playing around with the
keepalive timers ?

If the session keepalive timer is reached a probe is sent with the ACK
number set to ACK-1 i.e. telling the other end that the recipient lied
previously when it said it had received all the data. This forces the origin
to resend with the correct ACK number

TCP/IP Illustrated Vol 2 p830

There are probably other instances where this is done but that's the one
I've come across most often.

Subject: TCP Ack numbers suddenly regress [7:56189]


Anyone come across a situation where the ACK number suddenly steps back 1
and the link then resets ?

Host A to Host B is running fine with the app using port 2400 on A talking
to an app on B using ports 3564 & 3565 are in use. We have several traces
showing the steady increase of sequence numbers then all of a sudden the ACK
number takes step back by 1. There are no FIN segments in the preceeding
traffic, but the now regressed ACK number is repeated in 7 segments sent and
then a reset segment is issued and the two start exchanging data again.

I am not allowed to post any of the data from the trace given the nature of
the two systems involved, but here is an example of the way the ACK numbers
run

>From A to B port 2400 to 3564
4567 is ACK'd
4785 .
4948
4947

>From A to B port 2400 to 3565
466 is ACK'd
483 .
500
499

The link between the two is fine during this problem, utilisation drops but
is nevera bove 20% anyway. Both host applicationms are still running and
there are no process issues. The Cisco kit at either end is happy no error
messages or the like so I we knows its host/app related.

I can't find anything this specific in the archives and the nearest any of
my textbooks come is to say a FIN has been issued - which the trace says is
not the case.

The reason for asking is that I didn't think it was possible to regress the
sequence numbers, with the exception of the example from TCP/IP Illustrated
Vol 2 noted above.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

messages or the like so I we knows its host/app related.

I can't find anything this specific in the archives and the nearest any of
my textbooks come is to say a FIN has been issued - which the trace says is
not the case.

The reason for asking is that I didn't think it was possible to regress the
sequence numbers, with the exception of the example from TCP/IP Illustrated
Vol 2 noted above.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
