Source Routing

2000-11-27 Thread Michael Fountain

Kind of a bizarre situation, but...

We have a large, productional network that can't be messed with too much.

Basic network could be looked at like this

 - core(5500rsm) - distro(4700) - access(1720s)
  /
 ---/

What we need to be able to to do is route a couple of the customers on the 
1720s towards the new internet connection until we are ready to swing 
everyone over to it.

Since we already have a default route to the existing internet connection, 
what is the easiest way to do this?

I've considered creating tunnels between the 1720s and the new internet 
routers, but have always heard things about tunnels and CPU usage.  It is an 
ethernet environment only, so I don't know of any way to source route.

Any suggestions?

use ->  "session x" where x is the slot that your sup module is in.

Slot 1 or 2 is the catalyst engine and slot 15 is the logical slot for the 
IOS software.

Re: Coil pinnaccle header

2001-01-10 Thread Michael Fountain

I haven't seen that error yet, but I can telly you this.

The COIL chip is sits on the 6500 Fast Ethernet Blades.  Each Coil chip is 
responsible for up to 12 FE ports.  They are mostly responsible for TX & RX 
buffering, CRC checks, and queing

The PINNACLE chip is found on the Gig E and Fast E line cards.  Each 
Pinnacle chip handles either 4 Fiber XCVR ports or 4 Coil chips.  It can 
handle CRC checks, Queueing, putting packets on the switch bus, and so on.

Don't know if that helps you any.  Either way, if it is a group of 12 ports 
or a group of 48, it is still that entire blade that would have to be 
replaced to get them all working.  If you have a maintenance contract I 
would turn it in to them.

Re: Clocking Question

2000-09-19 Thread Michael Fountain

My understanding is that the CSU/DSU usually acts as both a DCE device and a 
DTE device.  Although depending on how you configure it, it can be any 
combination.

Usually you configure it to provide clocking to your equipment (router) so 
it is DCE to the router.

And, you usually configure it to accept clocking from the line coming from 
the service provider, so it is DTE to the network.

So, normally the router is working with its default setting - DTE.
If you have routers in a test lab, or a back to back cable running under the 
floor or something, you don't need a CSU/DSU, and you can configure one 
router to provide clocking to the other.

Hope that helps,
Mike

Re: output queue drops

2000-09-21 Thread Michael Fountain

Look at your load - 224/255  And that is a five-minute average.

It looks like this link is pretty much maxed out.  You are getting queue 
drops because you don't have enough wire speed for all of the traffic you 
are trying to push out.

You can increase your queue depth to have it hold more packets to help when 
traffic is bursting, but if this is a constant occurance what you really 
need is more bandwidth.

Re: Catalyst 4000 series

2000-09-22 Thread Michael Fountain


Go to Cisco's main page.
Under Products & Technology go to switches
Under 4000 switches click on product literature
On this page click on product literature also (silly, I know)
Under data sheets click on 'Catalyst 4000 family'

I could give you the direct link, but if you're going to be working with 
Cisco much, it is better to get a feel for how their web pages are layed out 
so you can find stuff faster.

Re: Traffic shapping,

2000-10-04 Thread Michael Fountain

How about this -

interface s0
custom-queue-list 1

queue-list 1 queue 1 byte-count 1500
queue-list 1 queue 2 byte-count 6000
queue-list 1 protocol ip 1 tcp 80
queue-list 1 protocol ip 1 tcp 20
queue-list 1 protocol ip 1 tcp 21
queue-list 1 default 2




  This should set up the serial interface to use queue-list 1 for custom 
queueing.

  Queue list 1 is set to sample 1500 bytes per round from bucket 1 and 6000 
bytes from bucket 2.

  It is then set to put anything that is on tcp ports 80 (HTTP), 20 (FTP), 
or 21 (FTP) into bucket one.  Everything else (default) is put into bucket 
2.

  This will not shape the traffic to 20/80 unless you are filling up the T1 
and there is a requirement for queueing.
  Once it requires queueuing it will put FTP and HTTP traffic into bucket 
one and everything else into bucket two.  It will then pull packets from 
bucket 1 until it hits the 1500 mark and then go to bucket 2 and pull until 
it reaches the 6000 mark.  It will then return to bucket one.  That means 
that every round of sampling from the buckets, bucket 1 gets 1500bytes out 
of 7500 total, or 20%.  Bucket 2 gets 6000bytes out of 7500, or 80%.

  It isn't an exact way to do this, and it only happens when traffic on your 
T1 is hitting the point where queueing is required, but it should guarantee 
that HTTP and FTP doesn't flood out your other traffic.

Re: Traffic Shaping

2000-10-04 Thread Michael Fountain

There is a 'load-interval' command that you can use to specify how often the 
router averages the load on an interface, in 30second intervals.   Normally 
when you do a 'show interface' you get a five minute averate.  With the 
load-interval command you can change that.

It that it, or are you looking at a different command?

Re: OT: Ethernet Trivia

2000-10-04 Thread Michael Fountain

Good question!

I would guess that they would both arrive at the destination at the same 
time.  The difference would be that the 100Mbps packet would finish 
transmitting first.

The difference in speed can't be propagation delay since it goes over the 
same media.  So the difference in speeds should be that the 100Mbps link is 
using less time to signal 1s and 0s and less of a delay between each bit.

BGP prefix-list help needed

Hi all.  I need some help with a BGP prefix list.  A consulting group has

about this before I ask them specific questions.

For simplicity, the first part of each line -
 ip prefix-list  seq  deny
has been left off.  All of these lines are deny statements

0.0.0.0/32
0.0.0.0/8 le 32
0.0.0.0/1 ge 20
10.0.0.0/8 le 32
127.0.0.0/8 le 32
128.0.0.0/2 ge 17
128.0.0.0/16 le 32
172.16.0.0/12 le 32
192.0.2.0/24 le 32
192.0.0.0/24 le 32
192.168.0.0/16 le 32
191.255.0.0/16 le 32
192.0.0.0/3 ge 25
223.255.255.0/24 le 32
224.0.0.0/3 le 32

I've tried to work my way through this, and this is what I've got so far:

These I understand:
10.0.0.0/8 le 32= 10.x.x.x (private 10 networks)
127.0.0.0/8 le 32   = 127.x.x.x (127 loopback addresses)
172.16.0.0/12 le 32 = 172.16.x.x-172.31.x.x (private 172 addresses)
192.168.0.0/16 le 32= 192.168.x.x (private 192 addresses)
224.0.0.0/3 le 32   = 224.0.0.0-255.0.0.0 (class D & E addresses)


Are both of these statements necessary?
Doesn't the second one include the first?
0.0.0.0/32  = 0.0.0.0
0.0.0.0/8 le 32 = 0.x.x.x


I think I can understand this, I've heard that anything less then /19 is not 
advertised across the internet.  But, if that is true, what about the rest 
of the networks?
0.0.0.0/1 ge 20 = 0.x.x.x thru 127.x.x.x, with mask /20 or more


Do these have somehthing to do with the above statement?
128.0.0.0/2 ge 17   = 128.x.x.x-191.x.x.x, with mask /17 or more
192.0.0.0/3 ge 25   = 192.x.x.x-223.x.x.x, with mask /25 or more


What the heck are these addresses?
128.0.0.0/16 le 32  = 128.0.x.x
192.0.2.0/24 le 32  = 192.0.2.x
192.0.0.0/24 le 32  = 192.0.0.x
191.255.0.0/16 le 32= 191.255.x.x
223.255.255.0/24 le 32  = 223.255.255.x


Any help would be appreciated

Re: Average Load

You can change the sampling time using the 'load-interval [interval]' 
command. That will give you anything from 30 seconds to 10 minutes in 30 
second increments.

Re: Inverse Mask

2000-10-24 Thread Michael Fountain

Remember that with ACL masks, 1s = don't care.

so, for a mask of 0.7.255.255 you have -

  .0111..

so, when used with 10.0.0.0 -
You have to have 10 in the first octet (no ones)
It doesn't care what is in the 3rd and 4th octet (all ones)

The second octet is the one to watch.

because the mask is 0111 the first five bits have to remain as they 
are in the ip address  - 0

the last three bits can be either one or zero, doesn't matter

so, they can be anything from 000 to 111

so, your IP address can be 0 000 to 0 111

which gives you 0 - 7 in decimal

so the mask fits 10.0.0.0 to 10.7.255.255


hope that helps
Mike

Re: Two DLCI numbers?

2000-11-03 Thread Michael Fountain

The DLCIs aren't always given by the provider.  Depending on the provider 
and how much busniness you do with them, you can request specific DLCIs.

The way we are doing it is multi-point frame connections from our central 
offic to our remote office.

   All PVCs connecting to a given T1 at our central office use the same DLCI 
at the HDQ site (201) and then use different DLCIs for each of the remote 
sites (301-399)
   The next T1 at HDQ is given a different DLCI (202) and the remote sites 
connecting to that T1 are again numbered (301-399)

When you have a lot of connections (around 7000 in our case) it makes it 
easier to manage like this.  If there is a problem, we can use the DLCI pair 
to identify which T1 it is in our HDQ, and which of the DLCI nubmers belongs 
to the remote side of the connection.

BGP - maximum-list

2000-11-07 Thread Michael Fountain

Has anyone used the maximum-prefix command on a cisco running BGP?

It is supposed to keep a neighbor from going crazy and swamping your router 
with too many routes by limiting the number of routes that can be learned by 
the router.

What would be a good number to set that at to allow a full BGP table, plus 
growth, and still protect the router.

Or does no one use it?

Re: IP route cache

2000-11-08 Thread Michael Fountain

It determines how the router switches packets.

If you use 'ip route-cache' then the router will be fast-switching the 
packets.  The router keeps a cached memory full of recently used (which 
should often equal heavily used) routes & destinations.  When a packet comes 
in it can use that cache to determine where to send the packet without 
having to do routing lookups.

If you use 'no ip route-cache' then the router will be process-switching and 
will do route lookups for every packet.

I think Cisco recommends that if you are running a serial link that is 
slower then T1 speed to go ahead and do 'no ip route-cache' because the link 
is so slow (number of packets so low) that the time saved by the route-cache 
isn't worth the memory of keeping all of that information.

Also, if you have multiple paths to the same destination and are doing 
fast-switching, the router will load balance the traffic on a 
per-destination basis because once the destination output port is in the 
cache all traffic following it will go out the same port.  Process-switching 
will load balance on a per-packet basis since each packet is looked at 
individually.

hope that helps,
Mike

Re: IP route cache

2000-11-10 Thread Michael Fountain

Why what? :)

'ip mroute-cache' does the same things as 'ip route-cache' except for 
packets with multi-cast destination addresses  -  if forces the router to 
process switch them.  Again, I think ths is mostly used for packet-by-packet 
load sharing.

Re: ACL Deny Statement & Wildcard

2000-11-15 Thread Michael Fountain

use this -
access-list 103 deny ip 100.16.0.0 0.1.255.255

An easy way to look at it is that if your address ranges are consecutive 
then the .16 above is the starting address and .1 is the number of networks. 
  So it blocks 16-17.

Or look at bits -

.16 = 0001
.17 = 00010001

in the mask 0 = must match, 1 = don't care, so use
  0001

The .238 mask you put below would look like this -
  11101110

So it would allow the following networks
  0001
  00010010
  00010100
  00010110
  00011000
  00011010
  00011100
  0000
  0011
  00110010
  00110100
  00110110
  00111000
  00111010
  0000
  0010  and so on.

The only rule would be that the 5th bit had to be a 1 and the 1st bit had to 
be a 0 (right to left)

hope that helps.

Mike

Re: Config register

2000-11-15 Thread Michael Fountain

For 0xf921 = 1001 0011

Bit 0 = boot from eprom
Bit 5 = Used to set the speed to to 115200
Bit 8 = If a break is sent during boot, go into rommon mode
Bit 11 = Used to set the speed to 115200
Bit 12 = Used to set the speed to 115200
Bit 13 = Boot default ROM if netboot fails
Bit 14 = Used with bit 10 to set net broadcast to 
Bit 15 = Enables diagnostics and ignores NVRAM

It looks like someone was doing some sort of boot diagnostics on it.

For 0x3922 = 00111001 00100010
Bit 1 = default netboot file is cisco2-
Bit 5 = Set console speed to 115200
Bit 8 = Allow break to go into rommon mode
Bit 11 = Set console speed to 115200
Bit 12 = Set console speed to 115200
Bit 13 = Boot default ROM if netboot fails


So, after reboot everything will go back to normal except for bits 5, 11, 
and 12.  Those are the console speeds

Try going into config mode, go to config line console 0 and enter "speed 
9600".

that should freeze up hyperterm (or whatever you are using) until to set 
that program to run at 9600 also.

If you do a 'show ver' then you should see
"Configuration register is 0xF921 (will be 0x2102 at next reload)"

hope that helps.

Re: no ip directed-broadcast?

2000-07-13 Thread Michael Fountain

no ip directed-broadcast  -  this means that someone can't ping your 
networks broadcast address.  This was used in denial-of-services attacks.  
Someone would ping the broadcast address, and every machine on the network 
would answer.

no ip mroute-cache  -  this should only be used on slow (T1 or slower) 
serial interfaces.  It turns off route-caching for multicast packets.  On 
slow links Cisco says that it takes more memory and processor time to cache 
the routes and look up the cache then it does to process switch the packets.

Re: Load Balancing between two routers

2000-07-14 Thread Michael Fountain

Do you use any routing protocol between A, B, & C??

Most of the routing protocols can be set up to load balance across multiple 
different routs to the same network if the metrics are the same.  E/IGRP can 
load balance even if the metrics are not the same.

Note - A is probably set for fast-switching to B & C since it is on a LAN 
interface.  When you are fast-switching the router will only load balance on 
a per-destination basis.  If you want it to load balance on a per-packet 
basis you have to turn off fast switching by turning off route cacheing.

Hope that helps,
Mike

Re: Frame-relay traffic shaping question

2000-07-17 Thread Michael Fountain

The easiest way to do this is to only configure the CIR and Line speeds and 
let the rest default.

Example commands -

int s0
frame-relay traffic shapping Enable FRTS on the interface
frame-relay class ExampleClass   Shape as defined in map class

frame-relay map-class ExampleClass
frame-relay traffic-rate XXX YYY   ### XXX = CIR, YYY = Max Speed
traffic-rate adaptive-shaping becn  Use BECNs (not foresight)
 for for thottling


  If you set XXX to 512K and YYY to port speed, he will transmit at port 
speed unless he receives BECNs from the network, and then he will throttle 
down to 512K.
  If you set both XXX and YYY to 512K he will always transmit at 512K

  Depending on your service provider and how congested their network is you 
may be able to go in and buy a small CIR like 64K and then ignore that and 
have your router set to send at 512K.  If you do that and some time in 
future your SP starts dropping packets (because they are over CIR) you will 
have to go to them and buy up your contracted CIR, but until then you can 
save some money.  We've been running AT&T Frame Relay for a couple of years 
and have yet to receive a single BECN.

  It is possible to go in and specify mincir, Bc, Be, etc.  But unless you 
are going VOFR or some other application that has specific needs using 
generic FRTS will cover just about everything.

  Hope that helps,
Mike

Re: CIT next week

2000-07-18 Thread Michael Fountain

I just finished it yesterday.  Out of all the tests I think CLSC was the 
most poorly written, but CIT comes in a close second.

The questions are very vague, and you often have to guess what they are 
looking for.  They aren't extremely hard though, and if you are familiar 
with the topics you should be able to work it out.

There are some fill in the blank questions for commands, and I even had one 
of those "move the boxes to the correct place" type questions.

Don't stress too much over the packet trace questions.  You do need to have 
a general idea of what a packet trace output looks like, and what does what. 
  But, they decode the packet for you, so as long as you can understand what 
the decode written out to the side means you'll be ok.  You don't have to 
memorize which hex means what in a packet.

There was more appletalk on this test then any I've had before, but even 
still that was only a few questions.

I'm not sure if this test is adaptive or not, but they sure beat the crap 
out of me with ISDN questions.  Make sure you know the 
show/debug/troubleshooting stuff for ISDN.

There were a fair number of Cisco web-site questions.  Know the URL, the 
basic areas (marketplace, software center, etc) and a basic idea of what is 
in each

There were a few questions on troubleshooting tools, but they were fairly 
basic as long as you have an idea of what the common tools are and what they 
are used for.

hope that helps,
Mike

Re: Frame-relay traffic shaping question

2000-07-18 Thread Michael Fountain

I'm not very familiar with generic traffic shaping.

But, at first glance it looks like it is basically the same thing as frame 
relay traffic shaping except that it does not dynamically change based on 
network congestion because there is no method set up to notify the router of 
any congestion encountered.

Using 'frame-relay traffic-shaping' indicates that the router can change the 
traffic rate based on becns or foresight notifications of congestion.  You 
will have to use a 'frame-relay map-class' to tell the router how you want 
to shape the traffic.

With generic traffic shaping you can specify the rate directly on the 
interface because you do not need to tell it what sort of congestion 
notification to listen to.

When you use the command 'frame-relay traffic-rate 64000 128000' (for 
example) you get the following values -
mincir - 32000- This is amount sent when congested
CIR - 64000   - This is the amount to send with no congestion
bc - 64000- This is the amound to send per interval
be - 64000- This is the burst amount to send in the first
interval
tc - 125  - This is the interval time in milliseconds


The router will send out traffic in the following pattern each second (for 
tc=125 or 1/8 or a second) when there is no congestion

  bc+be / bc / bc / bc / bc / bc / bc / bc

so for this config it would send -

  128000 / 0 / 0 / 0 / 0 / 0 / 0 / 0

then it would repeat that for the next second.

By doing it like this the router attempts to send the full amount of traffic 
every second.


You can go in and specify the Bc, Be, CIR, and mincir to be other values to 
try and shape the traffic in different ways, but there is rarely any need 
to.

For example, if you were to use the following config
map-class frame-relay test
  frame-relay cir 128000
  frame-relay mincir 64000
  frame-relay bc 8000
  frame-relay be 64000

you would get the following traffic pattern -
  72000 / 8000 / 8000 / 8000 / 8000 / 8000 / 8000 / 8000

So, you would still get 128K in the one second.

  The problem with this is that the router can only bust beyond Bc (up to 
Be) when it has excess bandwidth available.  So, if it keeps sending at 8000 
then it will be at 64000 each second after that.  Until it has transmitted a 
second with less then 64000.  Lets say in one interval it only transmitts 
6000.  So, next interval it was an excess of 2000 that it can transmit as 
Be.  This can continue until it was built up 64000 which is the max Be it 
can ever have.

Its sorta like roll-over minutes for cellular phones :)

By using the the 'frame-relay traffic-rate xxx yyy' command you are fooling 
the router into sending max Be every second.  It thinks its Bc is 64000 so 
the in the intervals it cant send traffic (because it hit line speed in the 
first interval) it builds up credit again so it can burst at full Be on the 
next seconds interval.

It really depends on how you want your traffic shaped and what sort of 
applications are running over the link.  But, if they aren't extremely time 
sensitive, the generic command should work.

The one thing to watch for in the 'frame-relay traffic-rate xxx yyy' command 
is that it assumes your mincir is 1/2 your average speed value.  So, if you 
set your average to your contracted CIR and the router encounters 
congestion, it will slow down to the mincir which is half of that.  To get 
around this you can set your average speed to double your CIR.

If you order your CIR at 1/2 your line speed (128K port, 64K CIR) you can 
use something like this 'frame-relay traffic-shaping 128000 128000'
The router will run at 128000 unless it hits congestion and then it will run 
at 64000.

Hope that helps.
Mike

Re: Master Degree?

2000-07-23 Thread Michael Fountain

I've got a BS in Telecommunications from DeVry.  I don't know if I would 
recommend that to anyone though.  The classes were pretty basic and cost 
about 3 times what they should.

I think my next step it to work towards an Electrical Engineering degree.  
GA Tech has a masters in Electrical Engineer concentrating on 
communications.  That sounds about right.  You may be able to find something 
similar up there if you are interested in getting down to layer 1 bits, 
bytes, and electrical signals.

Re: FAst Packet Switching

2000-07-26 Thread Michael Fountain

For IP traffic, on the interface you want to disable fast switching use the 
following commands -
 'no ip route cache'  - this turns off fast switching for unicast
 'no ip mroute cache'  - this turns off fast switching for multicast

note - not all routers and ios versions accept the mroute cache command.  
but you probably don't need to worry about it unless for some reason you 
have an unusually high number of multicast packets.

hope that helps,
Mike

Re: new 3600 problems

2000-07-26 Thread Michael Fountain

If you don't have a good working ethernet port, you'll have to xmodem the 
ios into the router.

The way to do this is -
1) Reboot the router.
2) While it is reloading hit the break key
  to get it into rommon mode
3) type 'confreg' at the prompt.  The router will ask you
  if you want to change the register
4) Enter yes, and hit return to accept default values until it
asks if you want to change the console port speed
5) Tell it yes and it will give you a list of speeds.  Pick 115200
6) Keep accepting default values after that until it gets back
   to asking if you want to change the register again.
7) This time tell it no.  It will now save your register
   (btw - I think it is 39xx something something)
8) Tell the router to reset
9) While it is rebooting, set your hyperterm (or whatever program)
   to work at 115200 instead of 9600
   10) Hit the break key while the router is reloading to get back
   into rommon mode
   11) At the prompt enter 'xmodem'
   12) It tell you some stuff, and eventually be ready to accept an
   xmodem download.  Tell hypertem to xmodem the file to the
   router
   13) When it is done, reset the router again
   14) It should now load ok.
   15) Once you are in to it, configure the ethernet port.
   16) After you do that, you can telnet into the router, go into
  config mode, set the config register back to 0x2102 and the
  console line speed back to 9600

You can do this without messing with the config register and port speeds, 
but if you do it will take about 2 hours to xmodem the ios to the router 
instead of 15 minutes.

Also, I'm 12.0.7 supports the network module, but only certain trains of it. 
  You need to have 12.0.7XK, not 12.0.7T

hope that helps

Re: CCDA question-512 bit times

2000-07-27 Thread Michael Fountain

Fibre doesn't actually break the 512 bit-time rule.  You still need to keep 
your network under 512 bit-times from worst-case station to station.

Fibre can have the longer lengths because it doesn't sucumb to attenuation 
as fast as copper.  The differences in propegation time between copper and 
fibre are very slight.  And, if you didn't have to worry about attenuation 
you could run 412 meters on fibre and 370 meters on copper.

Take a look at your network, find the two stations that are seperated by the 
most cable and devices, and then follow the fomula in the book, and see what 
sort of number you come up with.

If you think it is completely off, send a little ascii art picture showing 
what cable lengths and devices are in there.

Re: T3 circuit connectivity

You may also want to consider plugging it directly into a switch with a

it might make more sense to upgrade the switch then to purchase a seperate

I know the Catalyst4000 on up can handle ATM T3s.  And I think the 8500's 
may be able to even split off some of the traffic to voice for you.

I'd have to do more reading to tell you more then that, but thought I'd toss

This is a multicast address used for a routing protocol, but I can't 
remember if it is EIGRP or RIP v2

If you need more info, I can let you know on monday.

Re: Router Security commands

2000-07-30 Thread Michael Fountain

no ip redirects -
   If a router has to direct a packet out the same interface it came in on 
(usually because it is configured as the incorrect default-gateway for a 
packet from a workstation) then it will send that packet on, but also send 
an ICM Redirect message to the host that sent the packet.  This command 
causes the router to not send the redirect message.


no ip directed-broadcst -
This denies broadcasts destined for a specific, remote, subnet

no ip proxy-arp
  Someone help me out if I explain this wrong.
  If a workstation ARPs for another workstation that is not on the local net 
(perhaps because it doesn't have a gateway configured, or becaues it has the 
wrong subnet mask) then the router will respond to the ARP with its own 
address.  The workstation will then send the packet to the router, and the 
router will forward the packet.  This command disables this feature.

Hope that helps,
Mike

Re: CSU/DSU lab

You have to make a T1 crossover cable (Pins 1 and 3 I think, but you should 
probably double check) and you will have to configure one of the CSU/DSUs to 
provide clocking, usually by setting its clock for internal instead of line.

Re: Stuck in ROMMON mode

2000-08-02 Thread Michael Fountain

If you are going to have someone console in locally, do this -

  In rommon mode, type confreg, it will ask you if you want to change the 
register, tell it yes.  It will give you a bunch of options.  Tell it yes 
for change the console port speed.  Set it for 115200.
  That will disconnect you from the router.  Set the hyperterm (or whatevery 
you are using) for a port speed of 115200 and try again.  You should be able 
to get back in.
  Try to do XModem then.  It will be much faster (15/20min instead of 2hrs).
  Once you do that and reload the router you'll have to telnet into it to 
change the register back to 0x2102 and do a 'no line speed 115200' on the 
console line.
  That should get you up and running without doing a 2hr Xmodem.

Hope that helps,
Mike

Preventing password recovery

2000-08-09 Thread Michael Fountain

We have a cisco router (1720) at a customers location.  The customer's techs 
have used the password recovery procedure to get into the router and look at 
the configs and change the passwords in them.

Does anyone know how can we prevent the router from responding to a break 
during boot?

Well, I put the question to Cisco's open forum Q&A board, and got about the

So, I guess it is time to threaten to have the legal guys shake a stick at 
them and then lock the router up in a big metal box with a little tiny hole 
for the cable.

RE: Preventing password recovery

2000-08-10 Thread Michael Fountain

I've had a couple of suggestions to fix this, but nothing that works so far.

The best choice would be to lock it up somewhere, but it is on 
customer-owned premise, so other then telling them they shouldn't be messing 
with it, we don't have a fool proof way of keeping them out of it.

A couple of answers I've tried that haven't worked -

   1) Change the config register to 0x2002  -  Disabling the break key is on 
by default.  This allows someone to use the break key to enter rommon mode 
during normal operations (oops, luckily I have a test router to play with)

2) Change the config register to 0x102 - I didn't notice any diference 
in this at all with this setting.

3) Use the command "no service password-recovery"  - Which seems to want 
to work, but I get a response from the router saying "Password recovery 
disable mode is not supported by the current ROMMON.
Please upgrade the ROMMON if you want to use this feature."  Which is kind 
of funny since it has 12.0.3(T) in the ROM.  I'm not sure there is anything 
else you can change the 1700's to.  It may be this command used to work, but 
doesn't on some of the newer models.


  It may be that you just cant get there from here :)

Re: about the queuing

2000-08-17 Thread Michael Fountain

It sets the number of packets the router will hold in queue before 
discarding new packets.  Called congestive-discard.  Default is 64 packets.

Here is a like that explains it better, watch the wrap.
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios112/112cg_cr/1rbook/1rsysmgt.htm#xtocid196228

When you need explanation of what a command is doing, the easiest thing to 
do is go to Cisco's web page, and do a search on the command.  ie 
"fair-queue". and you will usually come up with a couple of pages that 
explain the command fairly well.

hope that helps,
Mike

Re: RSVP & WFQ

2000-08-17 Thread Michael Fountain

I'm not familiar with RSVP, can I can help with WFQ.

WFQ is enabled by default on nearly all serial interfaces with speeds less 
then 2Mbps.  (Exceptions are if you are using SDLC, X.25, LAPB, compressed 
PPP, and maybe a couple others).

WFQ is able to sense the various 'conversations' between end stations by 
identifying packets based on a couple of things -
Source/Destination network address
Source/Destination MAC address
Source/Destination port number
Frame Relay DLCIs

If queueing is necessary on a link, then packets are put into the fair 
queue.  They are serviced from the queue in order based on the time of 
arrival for the last bit of each packet.

So, even if a big FTP packet arrives into the router before a small E-Mail 
packet it is likely that the E-mail packet will get transmitted first 
because the E-mail packet finished arriving before the FTP packet.

Because they service the queue like this, smaller packets will have a 
greater chance of being transmitted first which gives them a semblance of a 
higher priority.

The router can also keep track of the 'conversations' and small packet 
conversations can have their queued packets interleaved with the packets of 
a large packet conversation like FTP.  This keeps them from being held up in 
queue too long if there is already a bunch of packets in queue for the large 
packet conversation.

The only adjustable variable for WFQ is the congestive discard.  If a 
high-volume/large-packet conversation has packets in queue, it can only have 
the number of packets up to the congestive-discard value.  Once the number 
of packets reaches that number the router no longer queues packets for that 
conversation until the number of packets in queue drops to 1/4th the 
congestive-discard value.

  I don't know about how RSVP works, but I can explain some about how 
Frame-Relay traffic shaping works in association with queues, and it may be 
pretty similar.

  With FRTS you can give each PVC a CIR & Burst speed.  If the traffic for 
that PVC goes over those amounts it needs to be queued.  After the router 
determines that it needs to be queued, it sends it to the queueing process 
in effect on that PVC (WFQ for our example).  The router then begins 
queueing and de-queueing the packets as explained above.

  I would guess if you reserved 50K of traffic on a link, and the link was 
full, and you had more then 50K of traffic to send, the remainder of the 
traffic (after the 50K) would be queued up, and then the queueing process 
would determine in which order packets were serviced until the traffic load 
dropped and the queue had been emptied.


Hope that helps some,
Mike

Re: How to separate Internet traffic?

2000-08-25 Thread Michael Fountain

At each site, make 2 HSRP groups, with routers A & B involved in each group.

Call group I your intranet group and group II your internet group

Make router A the primary for group I and router B the secondary with the 
WAN link being monitored on both

Make router B the primary for group II and router A the secondary, with the 
WAN link being monitored on both

>From your core at each site, route your internal traffic to the group I IP

One thing though, if those router are only handling two T1s and LAN

Hope that helps,

Re: load balancing multiple T1's

2000-08-28 Thread Michael Fountain

If they are equal cost, most any routing protocol can do this - RIP, EIGRP, 
OSPF, etc.

One note on this though - If you are no process-switching, the load 
balancing is done on a per-destination basis.  Meaning all traffic for one 
host is sent on first T1, all traffic for second host goes on second T1, 
etc.  At T1 speed, you can do "no route-caching" to slow the router down to 
process switching.  It will then load balance on a per-packet basis.

Re: load balancing on Rip

2000-08-28 Thread Michael Fountain

The router is probably fast-switching.  Which means it is load balancing on 
a per-destination basis.

All of your traceroutes are for the same destination, so they are going the 
same route.

On the serial interface, if it is T1 or slower, do a "no ip route-cache"

That will turn off fast-switching, and make the router process switch the 
packets.  It is then supposed to load balance on a per-packet basis instead 
of a per-destination.

Re: Help on Frame-relay Traffic-shaping command

2000-08-30 Thread Michael Fountain

For frame-relay traffic-rate 32000  64000 16000

  32000 is your average speed, it is what the router will transmit at if 
there is no congestion.
  The router assumes 1/2 average speed for CIR, so it will back off to 16000 
if there is congestion.
  64000 is what it can burst up to
  I am not positive on the last value, but I think it may be the burst 
amount that can be sent per inteval in order to get the traffic up to the 
burst amount for that second.

If you have 150K of traffic to send, and your interval is 125ms it will look 
like this -

Second 1  - 20K / 20K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K  = 64K, Total = 64K
Second 2  -  4K /  4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K  = 32K, Total = 96K
Second 3  -  4K /  4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 4K  = 32K, Total = 128K
Second 4  -  4K /  4K / 4K / 4K / 4K / 2K / 0K / 0K  = 22K, Total = 150K

If there was more traffic to send, the router could send a total of 42K in 
the 5th second, because it would have built up 10K of credit towards 
bursting in during the 4th second.


I am not familiar with traffic shaping using the second set of commands, so 
I wont comment on them.


For the commands -
>frame-relay cir 64000
>frame-relay mincir 64000

This means that the route will always transmit at 64000 no matter what.  
Because there is no Bc set, it will never go over CIR, and because the 
mincir = cir, it will never slow down, even if there is congestion.

If you want to get 32K average and 16K minimum, you can use the following 
command -
 frame-relay traffic-rate 32000 32000

That will set the average rate to 32000, the burst rate to 32000, and the 
mincir (what the router backs off to during congestion) to 16000

By doing this, the router will run at 32K constantly unless it receives 
congestion notification.

You also need to use the 'frame-relat adaptive-shaping becn' to get the 
router to listen to becns and slow down.

Hope that helps.

Re: about the interval

2000-08-08 Thread Michael Fountain

The router displays the input/output rate and load for a five minute 
average.  If you want to change it, you can do it on a per-interface basis 
with this command -

load-interval xxx

where xxx is time in seconds and can be any multiple of 30 from 30 to 600.

Re: Custom queue

2000-09-13 Thread Michael Fountain

The router will send the entire packet to finish off the byte count.

If it has serviced 4400 bytes from queue 1 it can still transmit 100 bytes 
before moving to queue 2.  If a 1500 bytes packet is next up in queue 1 it 
will transmit the entire packet before going to queue 2.

This means that it will have actually transmitted 5900 bytes even though the 
limit was set to 4500.

The meanings of the config register -

Bit No. Hex Meaning
00-03    - 000F Boot Field
Stay at bootstrap prompt
0001Boot system image on EPROM
0002 - 000F Specify default netboot filename -
  cisco-processor_name - where 2
Off On  
On  On  
On  Off 


So, 0x2102 =
  2 - Boot from ROM if network boot fails
  1 - Break command during boot puts router into ROMMON mode
 02 - Default file name for a net boot is cisco2-
 depending on what machine you have.

Re: packets

2000-05-25 Thread Michael Fountain

Since you didn't specify the protocol, I am going to assume you mean for a 
TCP connection.

  When one side wants to set up a connection with the other side, it does a 
"three-way handshake" by doing the following:

A -> Sends  SYN=1, ACK=0, SEQ=1000, ACK#=0
B -> Replys ACK=1, SYN=1, SEQ=5000, ACK#=1001
A -> Replys ACK=1, SYN=1, SEQ=1001, ACK#=5001

  When the conversation is over, if both sides wants to close the 
connection, they do a "graceful close" by doing the following:

A -> Sends  FIN=1, ACK=1, SEQ=2000, ACK#=6001
B -> Replys FIN=1, ACK=1, SEQ=6001, ACK#=2001
A -> Replys ACK=1, SEQ=2001, ACK#=2002


   The SYN bit is letting the remote side know to synchronize the SEQuence 
number it should be expecting.
   The ACK bit indicates that the sender has recieved a packet from the 
remote side, and it is now expecting to receive a packet with the sequence 
number indicated in the ACK# field.
   The SEQ field is a randomly generated number that the sender generates to 
show where it will start at.  It then increments this value by one for every 
packet it sends
   The ACK# field indicates what packet sequence number the receiver is
expecting to see next.

Re: priority list

2000-05-28 Thread Michael Fountain

I'd say look at Cisco's web pages to be sure, but I think it is number of 
packets in queue, max size of queue allowable, and number of packets that 
have been dropped by that queue.

I don't know if it is 'normal' to put telnet in the high priority queue, but 
it probably won't hurt since telnet traffic usually so light it won't impact 
any other applications.

Re: VLSM Question

2000-06-04 Thread Michael Fountain

The numbers you have might work, but they definately aren't the best to use. 
  I have a couple of comments inline below -



>I have four different interfaces on a 2514 router (e0,e1,s0,s1), each
>interface is on a different subnet, and the mask is 30 bits. Here's they

>int s0 = 172.16.10.12 /30
>int s1 = 172.16.10.16 /30
>( I only want two addresses per subnet)

  Those are good subnets for two devices per subnet, but not to be put on 
the interface.  The .4, .8, .12, and .16 are the 'net' addresses for those 
subnets.  You would want to put .5, .9, .13, .16 on the actually interface.  
with .6, .10, .14, and .17 being the remote devices and .7, .11, .15, and 
.18 as the broadcast address for those nets.

  I wasn't too sure from your letter if you were pointing out the subnets 
that would be placed on each interface, or the actuall IP address.

>Is this correct?

Well, 172.16.10.0/27 will give you a netmask of .000/01010
That wil summarize all networks from .0 to .31 - so, it will cover the range 
you need.  But you will have to make sure not to use the .20 through .31 
anywhere else in the network.

This one can't be summarized in one summary-address if you want to keep it 
to these networks exactly.  You would have to use 172.16.10.4/28 which would 
cover .0 through .15 and then the 172.16.10.0/30 for that range.

Hope that helps

Re: full meshed ip unnumbered network

2000-06-04 Thread Michael Fountain

I don't think the second solution would work to well if you tried to put all 
of the interfaces in the same network space, but 1 and 3 should be ok.

I'm not too sure where the worry about load balancing comes in since each 
router only has one direct hop to the other.  There should only be one link 
to a destination at a time in this design.  If a link goes down, it will 
take the two-hop route.

The meshed frame-relay solution is how we do it where I work, but PTP versus 
FR is mostly a matter of cost and what you need the circuit to do.

Re: BGP question

2000-06-05 Thread Michael Fountain

I haven't worked with BGP yet, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong 
with this -

My understanding is that even if you have internet connections to two 
differnet ISPs, you don't have to BGP.  If you are using IP addresses they 
have assigned to you then you are ok.

The big reason to use BGP would be if you have a block of registered IP 
addresses and you want to advertise them to the internet via two different 
ISPs.

Re: BGP question

2000-06-06 Thread Michael Fountain

If you have an ISP assigned address that you are using, can you advertise 
that address out to another ISP??  Or if you want redundancy do you have to 
get your own registered IP range and then BGP advertise that through two 
ISPs?

RE: setting mtu size on a 2611

2000-06-06 Thread Michael Fountain

This is kinda vague, but I know there is a 'fragment' type command that can 
be used when running VOIP to break down larger packets into smaller ones so 
that the large packets do not slow down the little ones.

I can't remember the command exactly, its out there on CCO somewhere, but I 
remember that it had 'fragment' in it, instead of trying to drop the MTU.

Hope that will help some.

Re: ATM

2000-06-07 Thread Michael Fountain

Actually, I would consider ATM more of a WAN technology that can run in a 
LAN using LANE.

In the WAN it mostly runs on fiber, because of the high speeds that carriers 
run it at, although you can get it on a coax cable if you get an ATM T3 
connection.

My understanding (limited) is that AT&T uses ATM for their backbone.  Even 
their Frame Relay connections are converted over to ATM, run across their 
backbone, and then back into frame to come out the other side.

hope that helps some.

RE: Frame Relay limitations question

2000-06-09 Thread Michael Fountain

Well, to give a little more info on what the article below said,

If they are Point-to-Point, you have to create a sub-interface for each PVC, 
so you are limited to the number of IDBs you can have in a router.  I think 
the numbers in that article might be a bit low, but it might be correct for 
most models.  Our Cisco rep recently told us that a 7200VXR routers were 
limited to 3,000 IDBs, although I think the VXR chassis is one of those geek 
things it was talking about :)

If they are Multipoint PVCs, the numbers below look pretty good to me, but a 
bit conservative for a max value.  We have a bunch of Cisco 4700s with 16M 
DRAM, and each of them has 4 T1s on them with 200 PVCs per T1, for a total 
of about 800 per router.

Hope that helps.

Mike

Re: Traffic shapping

2000-06-15 Thread Michael Fountain

What you are wanting to do is not strictly traffic shaping, but queueing.

Traffic shaping is making sure that you are sending x amount of traffic into 
the network.  It doesn't discriminate between types of traffic.  you use it 
to set your router to send at a minimum of your contracted CIR.

With queueing you can determine what sort of traffic which how much of a 
percentage of the bandwidth.

There is two ways you can go about this -
  1) with custom queueing you can guarantee that all traffic will get a 
chance to be sent, and you can change the queue sizes to try and set a 
percentage.
  2) with priority queueing you can guarantee that the mail traffic will go, 
and the rest of the traffic will go if there is room.

  For custom queueing, you can do something simliar to this:

queue-list 1 protocol ip 1 tcp smtp
queue-list 1 protocol ip 1 tcp 
queue-list 1 default 2
queue-list 1 queue 1 byte-count 1500
queue-list 1 queue 2 byte-count 3000

what this does -
  line 1 - put smtp traffic in queue 1
  line 2 - put x.400 traffic in queue 1 - note: i'm not familiar
  with x.400, so I don't know the exact command.  It would
  depend on what ports x.400 ran over, and if they were
  different from smtp.
  line 3 - put everything else into queue 2
  line 4 - send 1500 bytes from queue 1 before going to queue 2
  line 5 - send 3000 bytes form queue 2 before going to queue 1

becuase of the queue sizes queue 1 should be able to send 1500 bytes for 
every 3000 bytes of other traffic.  Which means it should be about 1/3 of 
the total traffic on the link when queueing is needed.  So, for a 64K line, 
that should be about 20K.

Note: this is based on average packet sizes being 1500.  Again, I don't know 
enough about smtp and x.400 to say what the real average packet size is, so 
those byte-count numbers may have to be adjusted to compensate if the real 
numbers are different.


to use priority queueing -

priority-list 1 protocol ip high tcp smtp
priority-list 1 protocol ip high tcp 


what this does -
  puts the mail traffic in the high priority queue.  this means that it will 
always be sent, even at the expense of the data traffic, if the link is 
congested and has to queue.  The other traffic will fall into the default 
queue which is normal priority.

again, I don't know if the second line is needed, it would depend on the 
specifics of the x.400 protocol.



hope that helps some.

IOS naming convention

Hey, I just sent a note out about synch/asych ports on a 1005 being based on 
the IOS.  Then I came up with this after I deleted the note.  Thougth it 
might be ineteresting to pass on.

IOS Naming convention -
  http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/620/4.html#version

The value of the IOS features -
  http://www.cisco.com/warp/customer/620/5.html

q - does indeed mean you are able to run asynch
n - IPX enabled
y - reduced IP

1)Yes, you can configure more then one interface on s0 without using 
sub-interfaces.  Just make sure you don't have the point-to-point option set 
on it.

2) If you use sub-interfaces for pvcs you can't have a pvc on the main 
interface itself.

hope that helps.

Re: How do I switch async to sync on a C1005?

2000-06-24 Thread Michael Fountain

I had the same problem with mine when I bought it.  I had to get a new 
version of the IOS in order to make it change.

Right now I have
 c1005-ny-mz.110-22
in it, and that runs s0 as a synch interface

What shipped with it was
 c1005-qy-mz.111-8.2
and that had s0 as an asynch interface.

I don't know what the n stands for in the ios, the y is plain ip, and I 
think the q means asych.

Take a look at your ios version and see if that helps.

Re: Redistribute Static

2000-06-26 Thread Michael Fountain

The only static route that is redistributed into the routing protocols by 
default is the default route.  And, I know that is true for RIP, you'd have 
to look and see if it were true for other routing protocols also.

If you want other static routes to be advertised you have to use the 
redistribute static command.

hope that helps

Re: Can you block CDP with an access list???

2000-06-27 Thread Michael Fountain

I found this on Ciscos pages -

CDP sends packets on LANs using the multicast address 0100.0CCC..

So maybe that will help if you can set up an ACL by MAC address.  But, I am 
pretty sure that if you turn off CDP on a router it will not respond to CDP 
requests from neighbor routers.  I couldn't find anything on the web to 
verify this, but it should be pretty easy to test out.

hope that helps
mike

It depends on what your serial port is connected to.  Is it frame relay,

Re: suppressing null update

2000-06-28 Thread Michael Fountain

Usually you will see this when you have a distribute list in place and the 
distribute list is blocking all of the updates.  It could also happen if the 
router has only one connection active - all of the routes it knows about 
would come from that interface so it would supress all of those routes from 
going out that interface because of split horizon.

Re: Console get disconnected

2000-06-28 Thread Michael Fountain

Off the top of my head I think it is the - session-timeout  - command that 
you can set on the line configuration.  I seem to remember an exec-timeout 
also, but can't remember which does what.  You should be able to look up 
those commands on Cisco's web page though.

Re: IOS Upgrades

2000-06-28 Thread Michael Fountain

I haven't found an easy way to compare IOS versions.

I know if you do a search on Cisco's web site by model number and the 
keywords "feature set" you can come up with returns that will list the 
feature sets for each of the IOS levels.

If you are looking for difference in feature sets at a specific IOS level, 
then that will do it.  You can compre the different sets and what they 
offer.  There isn't any easy way that I know of to compre different levels 
of IOS other then to print out a copy of each level and look at them side by 
side.

Re: Null route

2000-06-30 Thread Michael Fountain

No.  It would only route traffic to null if it couldn't find a route with a 
more specific match.

Traffic is routed to whichever network the destination address falls in that 
is the closest to the actual destination address.

ex -
  If you had the following routes -
   0.0.0.0  via null 0
   10.0.0.0/8   via e0
   10.20.0.0/16 via e1

  If you had a packet destined for 10.20.8.5 it would go out e1
  If it was destined for 10.52.23.4 it would go out e0.
  If it was destined for 9.23.41.1 it would go to null 0

hope that helps
mike

Re: DHCP Broadcast thru WAN

2000-07-08 Thread Michael Fountain

On the router that is connected to the segment the hosts are on use the 
following command:
   ip helper-address x.x.x.x

where x.x.x.x is the ip address of your DHCP server.  The router will turn 
the dhcp request broadcast into a multicast and then forward it across the 
wan.
