use a straight thru cable...Depends on the sup eng. as to what cable you
use.

Subject: help, catalyst 5500 console connectivity. [7:16523]


I just bought a catalyst 5505 from ebay and I am having trouble with the
console port.  I am using one of the console cables that I use with some
other cisco routers.  My hyperterminal terminal setting are
9600-8-none-1, no flow control.  the switch when booted goes through its
diagnostics and boots fine. everything looks good except I can not
connect to it to configure it.  Do the cataylst use a pinout different
than that of a router. Any one got any ideas?

RE: LSA type-5 suppression across OSPF area boundaries?? [7:12235]

2001-07-12 Thread Jerrold Feigenbaum

I agree with the last post. We did this similar simulation in a lab setup
for pre-production implementation on our network. NSSA area works
great.Keeps LSA type 7's in the NSSA and then if you want you can translate
type 7's to type 5 LSA's at the ABR to area 0.0.0.0 Good reference is John
T. Moy's OSPF Anatomy of an Internet Routing Protocol and Cisco Press
Routing TCP/IP Volume I.John's book gives you the industry standard view of
OSPF and the Cisco Press book will give you Cisco specific issues as well.
Check out Chapter 9 page 482 in the Cisco book.

Hope this helps!

What about making the area between the ASBR and ABR a not so stubby area
(NSSA).  If these are Cisco routers you could then use the summary-address
command on the ASBR to summarize the external routes.  The ABR will then
convert the type 7 NSSA LSAs to type 5 LSAs.

What do you think

 hi all,

 have a problem that has been nagging at me for a good long time now...

 say you have a pair of ABRs sitting at an OSPF area boundary, and an ASBR
is
 originating Type-5 LSAs from inside the non-backbone area.  Is there an
easy
 way to suppress the propagation of the type-5s outside the area?  I would
 have a range statement on the ABRs to advertise the area aggregate, I just
 want to suppress the more specifics.

 I have tried using 'distribute-list out ' which would do it for
 me, but for some reason IOS won't allow this with OSPF:

 router(config)#router os 1
 router(config-router)#distribute-list 1 out FastEthernet 0/0
 % Interface not allowed with OUT for OSPF
 router(config-router)#

 I suppose that allowing this could potentially screw up routing if done
 without some care, but JunOS lets you do exactly this sort of thing - you
 can produce some wacky policies, but at least you have the option ;-)

 btw - I know I could prolly do this with multiple OSPF instances and
 redistribute between them, but I *really* don't want to get into this
level
 of complexity.

 thanks in advance - this one has been driving me mad

 Andy

RE: LSA type-5 suppression across OSPF area boundaries?? [7:12236]

2001-07-12 Thread Jerrold Feigenbaum

Setting up the ASBR in an NSSA area will work. We connected a Nortel CVX to
two Extreme Networks Layer 3 switches acting as the ABR'S then off to two
more layer 2 switches then to two Cisco 7200 routers in a lab. We were able
to keep the LSA type 7's in the NSSA area. It works just fine. With the
Extreme L3 boxes we could use the translate option to translate LSA type 7
to LSA type 5 through the ABR's.

Could you accomplish this by making the area containing the ASBR a
stubby area?  IIRC, you can put an ASBR inside a stubby area but the
Type-5 LSAs will not leave the area.  I'm not sure about that, but I'd
swear I read that somewhere recently.

Okay, I just checked this in Giles, 2nd edition.  According to him, the
above is true.  But who knows if it works in the real world.

Good luck!
