Help! Locked out of my 7513 Router! [7:16770]

2001-08-21 Thread Richard Chang

Dear Cisco Groupstudy Person:
  I locked myself out of my Cisco 7513 router somehow.My Keyboard has no
effect. I'm not sure if this is the reason, but my most recent configuration
change was to fill the No. 4 slot, previously blank, with a Fast Ethernet
Card.
  Everytime I power cycle the router, it comes up again, goes through the
boot sequence, and then freezes with a string of messages concerning the
status of FE 3/0 and FE 4/0, first stating that they are up and then stating
they are down.
  Even the password recovery technique where one uses the "Break" or "^["
Keys and then resets the Config Register can't be used. For some reason, the
keyboard won't even work; it has no effect in this situation suddenly!!.
  I have carefully checked my Hyperterminal settings of 9600 baud ; Data
bits=8 Parity=none stop bits=2 Flowcontrol=none
  Anybody have any idea why my keyboard is "dead" I am working with Vlan
configurations on this Router. Please help! Thank you.

Re: BGP Bandwidth [7:13817]

2001-07-25 Thread Richard Chang

You could of course set it up so that you will enjoy the full bandwidth of
all 3 T1s lines with redundancy.

Run a search on BGP multihoming on Cisco's site or Groupstudy archives. That
should give you enough examples to start with.

match ip route-source without ACL? [7:13813]

2001-07-25 Thread Richard Chang

Hello,

I got some questions when using the "match ip route-source" command and
would appreciate any input:

1. I was trying to set the metric for all the igrp routed redistributed into
ospf t0 2600 using a route-map. Originally the route 12.0.0.0 showed up with
a metric of 20.

r3#i 12.0.0.0
Routing entry for 12.0.0.0/8
  Known via "ospf 1", distance 110, metric 20, type extern 2, forward metric
64
  Redistributing via ospf 1
  Last update from 135.1.20.4 on Serial0, 00:26:01 ago
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * 135.1.20.4, from 135.1.14.4, 00:26:01 ago, via Serial0
  Route metric is 20, traffic share count is 1

2. The I added a route map igrp-ospf and applied it to the ospf
redistribution process.

route-map igrp-ospf permit 10
 match ip route-source 15
 set metric 2600

r4(config-router)# redistribute igrp 1 subnets route-map igrp-ospf

3. I had thought that I have will have to add an access-list 15 before I see
the metric changes, surprisingly, I noticed that the metric changed right
away without a ACL 15...

r3#i 12.0.0.0
Routing entry for 12.0.0.0/8
  Known via "ospf 1", distance 110, metric 2600, type extern 2, forward
metric 64
  Redistributing via ospf 1
  Last update from 135.1.20.4 on Serial0, 00:00:13 ago
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * 135.1.20.4, from 135.1.14.4, 00:00:13 ago, via Serial0
  Route metric is 2600, traffic share count is 1

4. According to cisco's site, the usage for match ip route-source says "To
redistribute routes that have been advertised by routers and access servers
at the address specified by the access list". It is kind of vague and
doesn't explain why I can change the metric without specify ACL...

Any ideas?

Thanks

Richard

Re: help with dhcp [7:11762]

2001-07-10 Thread Richard Chang

Assuming that you are talking about DHCP client, you need an IOS that
supports DHCP client feature. I believe that it is not supported until some
12.1(x)T version. Once you got that from Cisco's site, you should be able to
configure one of your interface to get an IP automatically from your ISP.

Re: advertising IP blocks [7:11191]

2001-07-06 Thread Richard Chang

Daniel,

Unless you are going to get your own IPs from ARIN, you don't have to worry
about getting anything smaller than /24. Just like John said, if you are
using IPs assigned from ISPs, they should do the aggregation job for you to
make sure your IPs get global routability.

If you could get two circuits from these two ISPs(make sure that they don't
use the same carrier if you could...) and run some kind of dynamic routing
protocols with these two ISPs. That would definitely give you the level of
redundancy you are looking for.

The only problem I can think of is that you might need to make quite a few
changes in your network as you would be getting two blocks of IPs from these
two ISPs. e.g. load-balancing.

Re: Information about Nortels Shasta 5000 [7:10809]

2001-07-03 Thread Richard Chang

At least last time I checked over the Shasta support page, there are only a
handful of documents over there. They really should have spent more time on
this as the box has tons of new features. I am sure shasta support in Nortel
GTS would be happy about this as well. ^__^

The things that I really like about the Shasta5000 is shasta's effort to
make it a wholesale aggregation device. The idea is that service providers
can throw DSL, dail, wireless, FR, ATM and cable all into this box and then
you can apply customized global policies to these subscribers. I look at
this as a great way to introduce value-added service, especially these days
when everyone is talking about profit. Two features that I tried before were
the firewall service policy and the captive portal service policy and they
both work very fine despite some minor bugs. As other posts mentioned, the
main way to configure the box is through a GUI interface which makes
presenting a sample configuration difficult.

I hasn't get a chance to see the Cisco ESR 10008 and 10005. However, I did
compare the shasta with Redback/Cisco 6400. Taking everything into
consideration, I would perfer the shasta5000 over the Redback/Cisco 6400 as
an aggregation device. Hopfully Nortel will stick with it rather than cut it
off...

Re: Information about Nortels Shasta 5000 [7:10809]

2001-07-03 Thread Richard Chang

I have been dealing with these shasta boxes for a while. One thing I am
pretty sure is that even Nortel Shasta won't have too much documentation for
their own engineers... Therefore, your best bet to learn about this box
would be to check your SE or through "trial and error", which is what I
did...

There are some bugs in both software and hardware side of the box and that
java GUI interface is really slow... However, I do have to say that I am
very impressed by the design of the router as it has quite a few nice
features for an aggregation device that at Cisco/Redback doesn't have. For
example, the content management features are really neat and I can see it as
a very scalable solution.

As long as Nortel keeps supporting Shasta, I think this box has some great
protential and I will keep an eye on it.

Re: weird BGP question [7:10384]

2001-06-29 Thread Richard Chang

This is indeed an interesting question although I never heard that it is
being done...

If I were to take a guess, it would be to manipulate traffic so that
upstreams A would always be preferred. (append extra AS paths and a default
route should do the trick).  Then there has to be some kind of network
management tools to send out alerts when the accumulated traffic for
upstream A reaches 300G. At that point, you can tell the router to take B as
preferred while put A as backup.

Your upstream provider might have a traffic monitoring web page that you can
log into to view the same results.

Any better ideas?

Re: what is loopback interface for ? [7:9493]

2001-06-29 Thread Richard Chang

I can simply use the quote from Michael Williams' message above to answer
your question...

1. "A loopback is a logical interface that never goes down.  It's used for
various reasons (for setting up various kinds of tunnels, for setting who is
the DR/BDR in OSPF, etc)."

2. "Many people use the subnet mask 255.255.255.255 because
that's the only way to assign a single IP to the lookback instead of using
more than 1 IP address." Therefore, you normally won't see /24s on loopback
interfaces.

Sure you can since they are in two different routers. I won't recommend
doing this though...

The point is, there is no magic behind a loopback interface as you still
need physical interface and routing entries if you need access.

Re: POP relocation [7:9897]

2001-06-26 Thread Richard Chang

Since you did not mention for sure whether you would switch ISP or not.
1. If you stay with the same ISP, they should be able to let you keep the
same IP number especially for those 2 /24s. If they plan everything ahead of
time and you keep the old IPs, it is indeed only going to be couple minutes
of downtime and you don't have to do anything on your router. Of course,
this is based on the assumption that they have good network engineers over
there taking care of your case.

2.  If you are going to switch to another ISP, you would probably have to
change your IPs since you don't own those /24s. Theoretically, those two
ISPs could make arrangements to let you keep the old IPs. However, it is
going to be a big hassle and you would find it not worth the effort.

Easiest way is to find a device on your LAN that you have access to at your
remote location and then telnet to your switch from there. For example, you
can telnet into your local router first and then issue a telnet 198.x.x.x
over there.

Re: Two DSL circuits for Fault Tolerance [7:9200]

2001-06-20 Thread Richard Chang

I discussed fault tolerance a lot before with customers who has a web site
that would like to be up all the time using DSL lines. As far as I can tell,
there is just no easy way to achieve a high-level of fault tolerance without
running some kind of dynamic routing protocols with your ISP.

Your idea of using two DNS servers won't work. When anyone tries to send an
email, their smtp server will randomly pick one of the authorized name
server requesting for your IP address. Therefore, you would still have 50%
chance of failure if one of the DSL is down. I would recommend that you get
some kind of load balancing device in front of these two DSL lines. Or, if
mail is all we are concerned about, you could assign one IP from ISP A as
the primary MX record while use IP from ISP B as a backup MX record. That
will make sure your mail always get to the exchange server.

BTW, I would not recommend using a second DSL line to backup another DSL
line since both DSLs would probably go into the same DSLAM in the same CO
anyway...

Re: Load Balancing for Applications [7:8260]

2001-06-12 Thread Richard Chang

Assuming that you have a router at home that you can plug both the cable
modem and DSL in. If you only need to get hold of a specific IP (game
server ) throught the DSL while everything else through the Cable, you could
simply configure default route for the Cable while adding a static route for
the game server IP with the DSL ip as gateway.

However, it would be more complicated if you want to load balancing using
different port numbers. You probably would have to setup something like
policy routing to achieve this.

OT: power requirements for home lab? [7:8070]

2001-06-11 Thread Richard Chang

Just a quick question for those of you who have dealt with a home lab
before:

Currently I got 5 2500, 1 2926 and 1 4000 and just realized that I probably
want to make sure that I don't blow my circuit-braker off once I turned all
these on at the same time. According to Cisco's site, the 2500 would take
roughly 1 amp, 2926 would take 3 amp while I could not find anything for the
4000( it only says 200 W). So I am just curious whether anyone has done any
study on the power consumption of these various Cisco gears.

BTW, stupid question, anyone know how many amps would a normal desktop PC
take?

Thanks!

Richard

Multiple VLAN addressing question [7:2905]

2001-05-02 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Richard Chang)

Dear CiscoGroupstudy.com
 
 I am having trouble getting the trunk up between a Cisco 7513 Router   
 and a Cisco Switch 5500 so that VLAN's 10 and 20 can cross it. It may 
 be because I can't set interface sc0 on the 5500 switch correctly.
 
 Assume VLAN 10 is   10.10.0.0/16 port 2/1 on Cisco 5500 switch
VLAN 20  is  10.20.0.0/16 port 2/2 on Cisco 5500 switch
 
 Assume ISL Trunk 1/1 connected between 1/1 on Cisco 5500 switch to 
 FastEthernet 3/0/0 to Cisco 7513 Router  
 
 FastEthernet3/0/0.10 = 10.10.1.1
 FastEthernet3/0/0.20 = 10.20.1.1
 
 what should I use for the address for interface sc0 on the Switch? 
 
 Interface sc0 determines port 1/1 address on the switch--

Re: IBGP multihop?

2001-03-15 Thread Richard Chang

Thanks for all the recommendation from the group. I finally figured out how
to make it work...

Originally, on R2 , there is no route to 3.3.3.3, the reason why it is
pinging is because of the default route. Same on R3.

I ran "debug ip bgp out" and got the following error:

23:48:57: BGP: 2.2.2.2 multihop open delayed 13727ms (no route)
23:49:11: BGP: 2.2.2.2 multihop open delayed 16256ms (no route)
23:49:27: BGP: 2.2.2.2 multihop open delayed 13949ms (no route)
23:49:41: BGP: 2.2.2.2 multihop open delayed 18975ms (no route)
23:50:00: BGP: 2.2.2.2 multihop open delayed 19711ms (no route)

For some reason, the BGP neighbor setup process won't take default route.
Therefore, I tried to add static route for the loopback interface and then
the bgp session finally came up. I would imagine using IGP to carry the
loopback address should work as well.

Re: IBGP multihop?

2001-03-14 Thread Richard Chang

1. I did have "update-source" command...
2. loopback interfaces are pinging on both routers...

I also wish that it is true that there is no limitation for ibgp multihop...

However, based on my following test, the only conclusion I came up with is
that either I missed something that's really obvious or Cisco does not
support ibgp multihop.

R2:
interface Loopback0
 ip address 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.0

 neighbor 3.3.3.3 remote-as 65001
 neighbor 3.3.3.3 update-source Loopback0

R2#ping 3.3.3.3

Type escape sequence to abort.

IBGP multihop?

2001-03-14 Thread Richard Chang

For EBGP, you can use the ebgp-multihop command when the neighbors are not
directly-connected. I was just wondering whether there is a similar
work-around that anyone know of for IBGP.

Basically, I am using loopback interfaces on these two routers and they have
to go through another hop before hitting each other. I configured IBGP on
these two routers with those loopback addresses and found out that the BGP
session can't be formed...

Thanks

Richard

Re: CID 3.0 study material/books?

2001-03-04 Thread Richard Chang


Well, I used the CiscoPress CID book and that's probably all you need to
prepare for this exam if you already had your CCNP.

Note that I would only recommend this CID books for those who want to take
the CID test. I don't think it is a good Network Design book, you should
have other reference materials so that you know how to deal all those
unclear points in the Cisco CID book.  ^__^
