Re: Looped
I ran across this not too long ago with a frame circuit. The port was not enabled on the frame switch and there was a tap on the line for testing. This took my data provider over 4 hours of escalation to find. If your data provider swears it is not them and your config looks good. Then have them run a nome test(have no idea how to spell it, no-me). This supposedly stresses the physical line, and when they bring the logical part of the circuit back on line they have to enable the port again.

trunking problem
Let's see if anyone can figure this one out: Running into an interesting problem with trunking. We have multiple setups running this configuration and running into CRC's on the trunk ports, and slow transfer and corrupted files sent inbetween the vlans. Currently we have had 2 ccie from cisco look at it with no help, and TAC has been working it for 5 days with no luck so far. We have 50 locations with this setup and 6 of them are reporting corrupted files. There is a 3640 router with 2FE and the switch is either a 3524xl or 3548XL, all code, cards, memory and flash are identical. The 3640 is setup as follows: interface FastEthernet0/1 no ip address no cdp enable speed 100 duplex full no ip directed-broadcast interface FastEthernet0/1.1 description Trusted Network encapsulation isl 1 no ip directed-broadcast no ip redirects ip address x.x.x.1 255.255.255.128 interface FastEthernet0/1.2 description Display Network encapsulation isl 2 no ip directed-broadcast no ip redirects ip address x.x.x.129 255.255.255.192 interface FastEthernet0/1.3 description untrusted Network encapsulation isl 3 no ip directed-broadcast no ip redirects ip address x.x.x.193 255.255.255.192 The 3524XL or 3548XL is configured as follows: interface fast ethernet 0/24 description router speed 100 duplex full switchport mode trunk The CRC increment atleast 1 every 7 secs. The more data that gets transfere, the worse it gets. We also see CRC's on port 23 which is the server. I tried switching from isl trunking to dotq and that appeared to slow down the CRC, but that is it. Anybody have any ideas? Rick Thompson CCNA, MCSE __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Sometimes you just need to read
The other day i posted a problem i was having with a 3640 trunked with 3524XL. I posted parts of the configs from both that were what mattered with trunking. I got a ton of responses, most were pretty good. One thing i did notice when reading through my email, was that there were other people posting to the list with questions on how to trunk with this swith and how to trunk with this router. It seens pretty obvious to me to scan through emails on the list for trunking if i am wondering how to do it. I wonder if other people have noticed the same thing. Alot of the answers to the questions that are asked are right under your nose (or on your screen). My intention is not to scold people but, i have been in the IT industry a whole whopping 9 months and I have come to find out that you have to research alot before you deploy. The cisco website and this list are my main to points of information. So far i have found everything i need using them. When i first started i my job, I constantly called the cisco SE that i have access to... I noticed that it got harder and harder to get ahold of him. Then one day he made an onsite visit to my company and i asked him all the questions that i had saved up. I then watched as he went to my desk opened IE and searched the Cisco web site and found everything i asked him about. I then started searching for my self and started getting the hang of the website and now can usually find what i need in just a minute or so. I used to be on a MCSE mailing list, and i notcied that most people that posted there gave their information and asked for corrections. When ever someone asked what needs to be done to do this... some one would reply back telling them to take a wild stab at if first and post it, that way you know you are atleast attempting it. That also helps foster the ability to find your own answers and build the troubleshooting skills needed. Sorry for the long post. Rick Thompson CCNA MCSE (soon to be CCNP) __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: Ping response between subnets slow
One thing you can also try is to ping both interfaces on the router from one of the hosts to see if it slows over the router. If it slows between the .1 interfaces then you may be running way to much information over the router with an access-list that is too complicated for a low end router (or one that is low on memory.) More then likely Tony's suggestion will fix the issue from what i have seen.

RE: 7505 Reboots randomly Please HELP
I would let them know that the situation is getting old and request that they rpl the whole box with all cards, etc..

Re: OT (sort of) TAC Horror Stories
I have never had a problem with TAC that i can think of. Their cache engine support team is not that well experienced but they get the job done, just takes a little longer then with the R&S groups. I have had a lot of failures with the 3548XL switches though. Bad GBIC and loose screws during shipment, sounds like we are seeing the same issues. The GBIC failures are usually the slot going bad not the module itself, they come in waves, 2-3 at a time every few months. But when it comes down to TAC, i can't complain. Now the QA people that see the products out the door, Cisco needs to do something there, new and rma.

Re: challenge problem
Another thing to look at is how they are testing. If you have a full T1 then you can have them run a 'round robin with multi pattern' stress test. This will break any marginal component. Some telco's will tell you that you can't test that way on a frame circuit, but that is only if you are not running all 24 cahnnels. Also, are they doing head to head testing, this will force the LEC to actually plug into the smartjack and test from there. But there is charges to this one if they don't find a problem. --- Fred Flinstone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ok here it goes > > we have a customer we manage that is incurring > CRC'c, input errors etc on > there serial interface. > > 1. stress tested the circuit many times from the > frame cloud through the csu > as good > 2. tries verious cables > 3. there are no interface modules i believe its a > 2500 something router but > i can check > 4. the only times crc's cross the link (verified by > a protocol analyzer) is > when we telnet from our management platform to the > site...even if i just > enter one character in the telnet session crc's > increment > 5. if you telnet from a neighboring router or dial > in this produces no crc's > what so ever. > - > we have 3rd level engineers looking at this i bet > if you find an answer I > could get you a nice paying job...:) (well maybe) > - > any help would be appreiciated > - > thanks...kyle > _ > Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at > http://www.hotmail.com. > > Share information about yourself, create your own > public profile at > http://profiles.msn.com. > > **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.
