Pull out Pwr-A; 

XXX Pwr-B is 1300 watts

replace it w/ a 2500 watt pwr supply; so you now have:::

Now pull out Pwr-B; 

Pwr-A is 2500 watts XXX

replace it w/ a 2500 watt pwr supply; so you now have:::

RPC Endpoint Mapper [7:63916]

2003-02-26 Thread COULOMBE, TROY
Anyone know of a good resource on RPC endpoint mapper?  I trying to find
where in the packet the server tells the client which [new] port to come
back on.  Using a sniffer, but I cant seem to nail down where in the payload
the future port is passed to the client.

a google search of rpc endpoint mapper sniffer  has resulted in a lot of
conversations about how RPC works, but not at the packet level :(

don't mind RTFMing...but so far I can't find a good URL

at least the FTP protocol states which port :)

RE: RPC Endpoint Mapper [7:63916]

2003-02-26 Thread COULOMBE, TROY
Priscilla,
thanks for the quick reply :)

yes, so far all 3 sniffers havent revealed much [ethereal, sniffer,  my
fav: etherpeek-nx]

all show the decodes for RPC, but this is a Win2k box talking MS-RPC [port
135, initially]

somehow, someway an upper port is getting assigned [4541 for example] from
the server

anywho, I'm t/s the win2k-box talking to vpn clients [also Wintel] and there
seem to be a large number of tcp-rst happening on the higher ports upon
initial connection ::: syn, rst, syn, rst

I don't think it's black-hat activity as it was the users complaining...so
I'm just trying to make sure the client is communicating back on the
proper port the server assigned...but I cant seem to nail down where the
port is in the payload...

I do see the server send to the client the server's IP adder, but in
character format [which to me is crazy]  so the server sends 31 00 30 00
2e 00 31 00 30 00 2e 00 31 00 30 00 2e 00 33 00 36 00 for 10.10.10.36  31
being the hex equiv of the ascii char 1 00 being the buffer space, 30
being the 0 and 2e being the . of the 10.

man, gives new respect to the folks who do reverse eng. :)

I'll keep hacking at it... but I'm still hoping for a URL :)

In the olden days, in a Unix world, RPC required PortMappter. Maybe you
could look that up? Not sure if there's a space, i.e. Port Mapper. I don't
think there is.

It's a separate protocol for assigning port numbers. You should see evidence
of it on your Sniffer if it still exists.

What operating system are you talking about? Windows does RPC too but I
don't know it very well.

If you're looking for a small, free solution then set up Cisco's free

 Hello Team,
 I am looking for a router security program that will automatically email
me
 if a change is made. Can anyone recommend such a program? The smaller the
 better but don't mind if it is a tool in a bigger program.
 Also I was wondering if there is any kind of port management tool that can
 deny or block usage of certain game ports on the LAN ? For instance if a
 corp office is having problems with people using unwanted programs such as
 messenger or counter strike (port 27015 by default) can it be done with a
 software program or packet sender to jam that port on a specific
computer?

 I thought I would go right to the experts!
 Have a great day,
 JD

Subject: Bridging Question? [7:60546]


I have studied for and successfully tested CCNA  CCNP and now I am studying
for the CCIE written exam. At this point in my studies, I am reading up on
the subject of Bridging.  I fully understand the concept of bridging when it
comes to switches, but I am perplexed as to why a router would need to
perform a bridging function.  Obviously bridging capabilities are built into
the routers IOS but what need would prompted anyone to use this feature.  In
the other studies Bridging was not a covered subject so this is new
territory for me.



Help!

HSRP Source MAC adder [7:35892]

2002-02-19 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

Hey group,
T/S an FTP app prob, and I came upon something that made me ponder.  
Hardware:::
6509, dual msfc2, 
Software:
IOS 12.1.(5a)E
Slot 15: VLAN236 
10.10.239.12
standby 236.1 priority 150   [10.10.236.0/22]
Slot 16: VLAN236
10.10.239.11
standby 236.1 priority 125   [and therefore standby]

So I have a client on 10.22.22.22 FTPing to 10.10.236.57.  When I sniffed
the wire [actually the 236.57 port], what I found was that traffic from
22.22 had multiple source-MAC adders.  
So, lets for the sake of brevity say that MAC adders are::
slot15 is AAA 
slot16 is BBB
HSRP is CCC
 236.57 is DDD

what I see is:::

AAA (22.22) -- DDD (236.57)
CCC (22.22)  DDD (236.57)
CCC (22.22)  DDD (236.57)  !!
CCC (22.22)  DDD (236.57)
CCC (22.22) -- DDD (236.57)
etc, you get the idea...

OK, right up front, the conversation from AAA to DDD and then DDD to CCC
makes sense to me..  :-)
But why does the back-up mfsc suddenly transmit?  He's not Primary, they
haven't swapped active [did a sh logg].
My thoughts right now:::
HSRP is a listening protocol and not a speaking protocolbut even if that
is true [can't find anything DEFINITIVE at CCO] what makes the back-up
interface suddenly decide to talk?  And it doesn't seem to be a load-balance
thing but rather new-session related... But what does that matter? ie: why
would the secondary mfsc even see this traffic...

Any thoughts? CCO links mucho appreciated if they explain this...
Does the 6500 series automatically session-balance when using HSRP?

Looking forward to your thoughts
TroyC

well, not really a stupid router trick...but a 

reload in 15 {reload cancel}

will save your arse when reconfiguring a wan link remotely...nothing worst
than having to drive to a remote site to correct a misconfig...

 a compiled list of stupid router tricks ?


 e.g.

 -making your router a dhcp server

 -making your router a tftp server

 -back to back frame relay (no dedicated frame-relay
 switch)

 -ip over aux port

 -login without a password (conf t - line vty 0 4 -

RE: NPE300 in 7206VXR [7:31534]

2002-01-10 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

Chris,
Sorta similar probs going on here...

I've been fighting [and so far loosing] with a 7206-npe200/128mb that keeps
dropping ICMP packets from my FWs.  The FA is on a PA-FE-TX, but I've also
tried PA-2FEISL-TX...to no avail... like I said, so far I'm loosing... :-.

It's a 2 armed router  ATM on the left [Internet] and FA on the right.  
Running full BGP routes on the ATM, Running HSRP on the FA 
 this is what the CKPT-FW1s [running stonebeat] are pinging [the HSRP
adder].

The FWs don't loose their pings _all the time_   just enough to cause them
to go offline...say, 3x a week.  
Sniffed the wire, and sure enough the router just doesn't respond to some of
them...router shows goose-eggs for drops/errors/runts/etc...replaced
cables/PAs/IOSes [now on 12.1.5, 12.0.3,  12.2.4T] to no avail...

TAC has sent me a new chassis  NPE as the next guess...but I'm not
expecting much outa that swap out

let me know if you get anywhere...or thoughts :-)
I'm almost ready to start whispering Nortel...NortelNortel... to the

Hi everybody, longtime reader, first time poster.  Was wondering if anybody
has had problems with the fastethernet port on the NPE300 for the 7206VXR
platform.  Lastnight for some reason the box was not able to ping the other
router that it was connected to via this port.  When doing a sh arp it
showed the ip I was trying to ping with a mac of INCOMPLETE.  All other
interfaces to this router were up and passing traffic, after doing the magic
reload, everything was fine.  It's weird that this port would just freeze
up, it still said up and up on a sh int before the reload.  After talking to
a buddy, he said that they had had issues with using the fastethernet port
on the NPE.  I figured I would disseminate this problem to a larger group to
see if anybody else had seen this.  Thanks.

Bored?? H... 
Assumption #1: You are working as some type of network engineer  have
access to the network
Assumption #2: You have a sniffer [I love NAI Sniffer Pro--Distributed is
even better...]

Sniff all the different segments on you network.  Create filters to filter
out types of traffic.  An example is create a filter looking for _only_
DNS failures.  I just recently found a piece of spyware that ATT's ISP
dialer software that was sending out dns querries for
ibmxxx.inverse.net...where xxx was 001 through 009.  They all fail...and the
dialer software just kept rolling thru the numbers indefinately while the
user was dialed up [and connected to our VPN] [the solution was to upgrade
the software]...

Look of _ICMP_ traffic... see what you see...

Look at whatever routing protocol you use [ospf is the most _fun_]...what
can you deduce from the traces...

and then there is _SNMP_ traffic...always fun to catch...suprising how much
info is sent in plaintext...

and then there is just catching those boxen that have shitty [excuse my
canadian-french] drivers...they don't window, or cause excessive
retrans...etc...

I make it 75% of my job to sniff...PRO-ACTIVE is key to a happy network...

now if only all the users would get off my network, it would be fine ;-)

The only other way that I know of to avoid crashing the router, and getting
a
useful sniff of the WAN traffic, is to use a V.35 protocol analyzer, such
as the HP Internet Advisor.  This is a pricey unit, but if you do this stuff
regularly (as my coworkers and I do), it is the easiest, and most
presentable
way to do this.  Note: There is a short disruption of service while
inserting
and removing the V.35 Y-cable used to do this.

Internet Advisor generates some very management-friendly reports, used to
present findings to people of a slightly more non-technical background.  It
also has many VERY powerful features (think: SnifferPro-like GUI).

I am sure there are other very similiar products out in the field, I am only
explaining what I have used.  At the present time, this is only the HP
Internet Advisor.

Loopback Address scheme (long) [7:20002]

2001-09-14 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

Alright gang,

Usually I just lurk.  However, for those of you doing support for networks,
I would like to know (sample) your loopback address scheme.  We have a Hub 
spoke network, with our core network consisting of core services (server
farm, etc) and our two WAN routers.  Off these WAN routers are our regions
(and off them branches).  Currently there is little redundancy (as far as it
being meshed--we have redundant links/isdn backup, etc).  We are a purely
OSPF shop. 

So, Core/WAN is Area 0.0.0.0  Regions/Branches are areas x.x.x.x (Each
(region and their branches) are separate areas...)   However, due to
transitions, summarization is not practical (things have moved within the
corp.)

Thoughts on BEST PRACTICE of loopback addressing???  Should I take a /32
from within the major network of each region/branch  use that, or should I
use one class C (and /32 that) and just spread it amongst the sites?  Also,
take into consideration that we are moving towards a more partial meshed
network.

Confused?  See examples below

Core network:
10.1.0.0 /16 (summarized)
10.1.1.0 /24 (server farm)
Region 1
10.32.0.0 /16 (not summarized)
10.32.1.0 /24 (local net 1)
Branch 1
10.32.1.0 /24 (local net)
Branch 2
10.32.2.0 /24 (local net)
Region 2
10.44.0.0 /16 (not summarized--but in general this is the major
network we are going to)
10.44.1.0 /24 (local net 1)
10.44.2.0 /24 (local net 2)
Branch 1
10.32.7.0 /24 (local net)  see can't summarize above due
to discontiguous nets ;- 
Branch 2
10.44.217.0 /24 (local net)
==
so solution #1 would be

core network devices use addresses (like)
10.1.2.2 /32  (using a new network here)
10.1.2.3 /32  (using a new network here)
etc etc.
Region 1
10.32.2.2 /32 (using a new network here)
10.32.2.3 /32 (using a new network here)
Branch 1
10.32.3.2 /32 (using a new network here)
Branch 2
10.32.4.2 /32 (using a new network here)
Region 2
10.44.3.2 /32  (using a new network here)
10.44.3.3 /32  (using a new network here)
Branch 1
10.32.8.2 /32  (using a new network here)
Branch 2
10.44.218.2 /32 (using a new network here)
==
or solution #2 would be using ONE loopback network...

core network devices use addresses (like)
10.99.99.2 /32
10.99.99.3 /32
etc etc.
Region 1
10.99.99.4 /32
10.99.99.5 /32
Branch 1
10.99.99.6 /32
Branch 2
10.99.99.7 /32
Region 2
10.99.99.8 /32
10.99.99.9 /32
Branch 1
10.99.99.10 /32
Branch 2
10.99.99.11 /32
==


and maybe I am just sweating the small stuff  it really doesn't
matter...just pondering it, because quite truthfully, I seem to only do
HubSpoke OSPF networks...all my mesh/part. mesh networks were EIGRP...

and I figured I'd share this as it might also be a prob/solution that get
peoples minds on off the tragedy.

SMB: R transact2 - NT error, System, Error, Code = (52)
STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND


OBVIOUSLY, the object was not found...but what is an R transact2 ...and
then there are things like:

SMB: R NT create  X, FID = 0x6002




So I am looking for a detailed book on SMB...  I did the usual search
engines, but I wanted to know what my fellow guru's use/recommend.

Subject: BGP Simulator [7:1087]


Is there such a thing as a freeware BGP simulator? BGP simulators run on
PCs or Workstations and simulate an external AS and will form adjacency with
routers. Router manufactures use the simulators to stress their products.
But I'm unsure if the simulators are homegrown, commercial or freeware. I'm
currently using a Linux system in my home lab and a BGP simulator would be a
great addition to my network.

Cisco IOS on HTTP site WAS: Cisco IOS Documentation: on ftp si [7:910]

2001-04-17 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

Don, 
That was I! ;-)

I d/l them, then zipped them (10Mb v. 70Mb.)  They are in the same
directories, etc.  I also zipped them up as one large file (same
size)(proper directories maintained).  I am allowed 2G of d/l per month from
my domain hoster.  So 150 people @ 10Mb is max LOL.  But you never know. ;-)
Will keep it there for as long as possible. ;-)

IMPORTANT**

If members on the list want to shoot me an E-mail with the following
subject:

CiscoDocs

I will respond to those requests with the URL of the files for those w/ HTTP
only access. ;-)
Those that respond w/ a different subject, will be filed in /dev/null. ;-)
Too much E-mail in a day,  it _must_ be sorted/filtered ;-p

made them available if they could inform others that would be great if this

 Hi Don,

 I wanted to thank you for the user id and password for your ftp site. I
 downloaded a fair number of the guides, unfortunately I was not able to
 complete the downloads this weekend as planned. I went back tonight, but

 like to thank you for making the documentation available. If perhaps I

In the hopes that this might help some of the beginners (and some of the
not-so-beginners) I thought I'd share an interesting troubleshooting problem
I just ran into that is actually a little embarrassing but educational. 
(Yes, I should be in bed already.  Perhaps my consistent lack of sleep
causes me to have constant brain lock lately.)

I started out with a back-to-back config between two 2501s from aux to aux. 
I initially was running IP, then I added CHAP authentication, then I added
IPX.  For some reason, I could not get IPX working correctly no matter what
I tried...

"show ipx traffic" showed that there was traffic but it wasn't behaving
correctly.  On Router A I had a static SAP that I wanted to advertise to
Router B but it wasn't showing up on B.  I also had a loopback address with
a network number that I wanted to advertise to B.  Again, it was not showing
up.

To make a longer story shorter, it might be helpful to reiterate the order
in which I did this configuration.

First, I configured IP and brought up the connection.  It came up and I
tested connectivity using pings.  Simple, no problem.

Next, I added the CHAP authentication.  Again, no problem once I got the
config correct on both routers.

Then I added the IPX config.  Hey, I just thought of something.  Instead of
coming out and telling you the answer to this problem, I should let others
guess.I'll subtitle this "Late Monday Night Follies."

If you've been doing this sort of thing for a while, please don't just come
out and tell everyone the answer just yet.  Let the people new to PPP figure
this one out.  I've given enough information here but there are a couple of
other clues to be given that I haven't mentioned.

Good luck!

I'm reading the Lammle book on VOIP and it shows a configuration on R1 that
looks like this:

dial-peer voice 2000 voip
destination-pattern 2000
session target ipv4:10.10.10.2

In the diagram the 2000 is a telephone on the otherside of R2 router and
10.10.10.2 is the IP of the next hop address on R2.

In R2 config it uses a command of:
dial-peer voice 2000 voip
destination-pattern 199.
session target ipv4:10.10.10.1

My question is this, 
 Do you have to put in a dial-peer command on the router for every single
phone connected? What would a sample config look like if you had R1 with
extensions 1000 through 1999 out 1/0/0 ?

Thanks

I have a general question about the following scenario:

If I have two ways out to the internet using two different routers.  These
two routers and 
the firewall are connected to a switch.  If I use a default route on the
firewall with one 
path having a lower cost then the other, the firewall should forward the
packets down that path.
Now if the router in the preferred path crashes, will the other path become
active.  In other words
how would the firewall know that the router is down.  The firewalls link is
still active because
it is connected to another device (the switch), it isn't using a 'dynamic
routing protocol'.  So 
why would the firewall go to the other default route?  (We could substitute
another routers instead
of a firewall in this scenario.)

Thank you.

LONG! RE: Router/Switch naming standards

2001-04-06 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

/begin babble

Well, It depends. ;-)

We are currently going through a similar (design) issue.  One of the major
issues of naming is scalability, because much like the network design itself
it can be a real pain later --if not planned for.  Businesses buy other
businesses, sites relocate, become dual homed, etc.  We are _mostly_ a hub
and spoke network for our regions  branches.  So for quite a while we used
a geographical area (self created) to identify the major node, then a name,
then an increment number.
EX: 17rtr01 (Area 17, router # 01) (Atlanta)
Then branch offices hanging off this regional router were as such:
EX: 1701rt1 (Area 17, Sub area 1 router # 01) (Columbia SC)

Then their respective switches (we have a lot of token ring  a growing
number of Ether) were as such:
EX: 17mdf-s001 (Area 17 Main Distro Frame Switch 1) with no idea if it was
TR/ET
EX: 17idf6a-s001 (Area 17 6th floor Int. Distro Frame Switch 1) with no idea
if it was TR/ET

Now: one of the bigger problems with this is-- what happens when you start
to go to a meshed network.  Doesn't follow as neatly. 1701rt1 is now hanging
off of both 17rt01 and 14rt01.  And like I said, b. buy other b.
Overlapping networks (NATing private IPs), etc start making things kinda
crazy until you get it sorted out.
Then later on because sites come  go (networks seem to always be in flux)
you end up with 17rtr01, 1701rt1,1704rt1,  1707rt1 and the new folks are
wondering where is 1702, 1703, 1705  1706.

So what we are now extremely close to finalizing is something along these
lines:
ATL-RT1 (we'll _never_ have more than 9 routers in Atlanta)
ATL-MDF-ES01 Atlanta MDF Ethernet Switch 1 (these are stackable Nortel 450s
 we'll never have more than 99--and five nines chance never more than 9)
ATL-MDF-TS01 Atlanta MDF T/R Switch 1
ATL-MDF-SP01 Atlanta MDF StackProbe 1
ATL-I6A-ES01 Atlanta IDF floor 6A, Ether Sw 1
etc.etc.
Now, that takes care of both the regions  branches hanging off them (along
with a Big E5 size drawing of the network).

So: what about a pretty large Data Center.  250 Racks.  One 6509 for every
for racks.   So here is what we did there:

RDC-CS-S001 Redmond Data Center Core Switch 1
RDC-CS-S002 RDC Core Switch 2
RDC-CS-RT1  RDC Core Switch Router 1 MSFC slot 15 
RDC-CS-RT2  RDC Core Switch Router 2
RDC-CS-RTV1 RDC Core Switch HSRP IP address of RT1/RT2 External
interface  (V for virtual)
RDC-CS-RTV2 RDC CS HSRP IP address of RT1/RT2 Internal interface
RDC-GA-S132 RDC General Access (ie: servers plugged in here @ gig  100)
Switch located in Rack 132
RDC-GA-S145 RDC Gen. Access Sw located in Rack 145 
RDC-DNS1RDC DNS 1
RDC-HA-BIG1 RDC High Available BigIP (F5 Gear) #1
RDC-HA-BIG2 RDC HA BigIP (F5 Gear) #2
RDC-HA-BIGV1RDC HA BigIP (F5 Gear) Vitual Interface External
RDC-HA-DNS1 RDC HA DNS 1

Then there is stuff like DMZs (or is that DMZzz), Partner connections,
etc.

Basically it takes a bit of planning. ;-)

FUD cud become a major part of our vocabulary. I don't want to make up my
own D if it's already in popular use   :-)

Cheers,

 Let me generalize my standard question of "what is the problem you
 are trying to solve," with "what problem do you NOT WANT to solve."
 What you are describing is a management, not a technical, problem.

 If your customers are part of the same organization as you are,
 someone to whom both of you report needs to explain economic
 realities to them.  This explanation would be along the lines of:

  1.  The network organization has a budget.
  2.  This budget is based on certain rational engineering assumptions
  about what components can do, and what services can safely share
  the same component.
  3.  VLANs were invented as a security technique, with the goal of
  isolating groups of users.

  3a)  The "multi-VLAN" approach that allows a port to be in more
   than one VLAN, IMNSHO, is _evil_, has marginal
applicability,
   and designs that include it should be tied up and thrown
into
   a pond. If they float, burn them at the stake. If they don't
   float, let them drown.

  4.  There is no reason for concern about sharing a properly
configured
  switch.  Unless the customer can document WHY it is a problem,
  their only justification is FUD, and the network organization
should
  not have its budget governed by FUD.

  5.  If there are real security requirements for physical switch
separation,
  as might be specified for government classified networks that
  follow RED/BLACK isolation criteria, then the costs of additional
  switchgear should be part of the budget of the organization with
  the security requirement.

 If your customers are a true customer and you are in a profit-making
 world, I would have the appropriate management (i.e., that is
 concerned with cost of sales rather than gross revenue) consider
 carefully if you can afford having them as a customer.  Your
 strategic business interest may be served by letting your competitor
 inherit this customer's problems.

 In other words, the customer needs to ask, "what part of NO do you
 fail to understand?"

 Roberts,
 
 I don't think 5500 supports pvlan, it has to be 6500, but I heard from
 somewhere those lower end 2948/4000 also will be able to support pvlan
very
 soon.
 
 pvlan, from my understanding, does not give you more security among
vlans.
 It only controls ports within the same vlan by preventing them from
talking
 to each other without your control. It is more of a way of saving vlans
for
 service providers.

 Correct.

 I believe the doc of 6500 explains it pretty well.
 
 If your customer is concerned about vlan leak, I am afraid you will
probably
 have to give them a seperate switch or they can use some kind encryption
 before sending out any traffic.
 
 Just my 2 cents.

   I have some customers that need to be connected to my network.  They
 insist
   on not having their servers connected to a switch that has other
customers
   on it.  They will not pay for an additional switch.  I was considering
   recommending private vlans?  That way things are more secure on the
 switch.
   Is this a good idea?  The current switches are catalyst 5500.  Does
this
   hardware support private vlans?  I have checked the documentation and
I
 have
   only found that the software needs to be 5.4(1) but they make no
mention
 of
hardware requirements.

True.  So what does the third bit (from the left) do?  I didn't see any
mention of the third bit doing anything so I assumed it was zero, hence
my confusion.  If it's not doing anything, why would it be a one
sometimes and a zero other times?

I've read a token ring FAQ also and still haven't found a mention of
what that bit is for.

Thanks,
John

 "John Mistichelli" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/22/01 4:17:59 PM 

"A" also starts with 10

8 = 1000

A = 1010

B = 1011


  

  John Neiberger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: 
Okay, now I'm confused by something in the Sybex CCIE study guide in
the
token ring chapter. It says that if the first two bits of the routing
control field are 10 the frame is an all-routes explorer. If the first
two bits are 11 then it's a single-route explorer. 

In all of their examples, when they convert the first nibble to hex
they use A for allroutes explorer and C to indicate single route
explorer. I understand "C" because 1100 = C, but 1000 = 8, not A. 
What's the deal? Am I losing my mind or is the book wrong? I've
noticed the book has been wrong in several other places but this is a
new topic for me.

From what I can tell, a RIF that starts with 8 is an all-routes
explorer. If it starts with C it is a single-route explorer. If it
starts with zero it is a nonexplorer frame. Is this correct? 

Thanks,
John

RE: A different Wildcard Mask [1:2082]

2001-02-23 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

Alright, 
Coming out of "lurker mode" . ;-)

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/ics/cs003.htm#xtocid2185611

There are two and a half (2.5) answers at the bottom (in cut/paste mode)
pending further clarification:

Exclamation points are of course (of course!) comments and can be cut/pasted
as well

Also, a neat "trick" depending on where the router is located is to issue
the "reload" command prior to applying access-lists.
A simple "reload in 15" will reload the router in 15 minutes...so the steps
I use are:
1. reload in 15   (reload in mmm)
2. cut/paste access list
3. apply access list
4. ensure connectivity is still possible. Best to create an
ADDITIONAL telnet window.
5. ensure access list is doing whatever you believe it should be
doing
6. wr mem (habits die hard)(copy run start)
7. reload cancel
If you lose connectivity (Doh!) and can't get back in on #4, the reload will
take place, return you to the prior running config (you _didn't_ do "copy
run start" yet did you?, and wala! no 3 hour trip into Tokyo to console in.
;-)

 Can you permit/deny only half of a subnet?  Here is my problem:

 Network: 171.17.2.64
 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.192
 Host range: 171.17.2.65 thru 171.17.2.126
 Broadcast: 171.17.2.127

 I have to deny telnet from hosts 171.17.2.96 thru 171.17.2.126
 and allow the remaining addresses (the lower half) 65 thru 95 complete
 access.

 I can not figure out a wildcard mask for splitting the hosts in half; to
 deny/permit one half of them.

 I would appreciate any help on this.

RE: T-1 Vs DS-1

2000-11-14 Thread COULOMBE, TROY

Hmmm, I would prefer the question to read:

(Q) At what speed does a T-1 run over DS-1?


But don't take my word for it...Here is an EXCELLENT T1/DS1 tutorial.
Bookmark this one...because there are very few T1 explainations that
actually talk about the F-bit  S-bit.  He (Bob W.) does an excellent job
breaking down the DS1 Signal levels (Pulse/LBO/etc), etc

http://www.dcbnet.com/notes/9611t1.html

 The designation "DS" in Figure 3 refers 
 to "Digital Signals" and describes the 
 physical layer. The designation "T" refers
 to the type of carrier that is being used. 
 Often these are used interchangeably but 
 that technically is not correct.
 ...
 When someone says they are running T1, they 
 may be saying several different things: They 
 may mean that they have a network that is 
 passing data at 1.544 Mbps; they may mean 
 that they have a network that conforms to 
 the T1 electrical interface specification 
 (DSX-1), or that they have a network that 
 passes data that conforms to one of the 
 several framing formats (D4, ESF, etc.). 
 More likely than not, they mean all three 
 but their concentration may be on only one 
 of these items. The confusion in the user 
 community is a result of the inter-
 changeability of words and the confusing 
 requirements for connection to the ATT 
 system. 


ahhh the memories...just glad you didn't ask about EM signalling ;-)
