Frame Relay Traffic Shaping [7:4777]

2001-05-16 Thread Steve Linney

G'day All,

I have recently been trying to tweak some FRTS parameters and playing around
with Tc. The Cisco site states that Tc should be 125ms max, and I have found
this to be a bit large for the majority of our installations. What I
generally use as my defaults are Tc=60ms for normal data sites and Tc=10ms
if I am setting up VoIP. What I have come across though is that sometimes
the router overrides my setting with its own value for Tc say Tc=30ms. 3600
seires routers seem to be the ones that set Tc=30ms.The Cisco site did
mention that a router will sometimes select a more appropriate Tc value, but
it doesn't mention what criteria it uses for the override function. Does
anybody know what the criteria is for a Cisco router to set its own Tc and
override one set in a map-class frame-relay.

Cheers

Steve

QOS for Citrix

2001-02-05 Thread Steve Linney

G'day All,

Currently got a problem with a WAN I support where they are getting
time-outs with their Citrix Clients. Citrix Clients are connected via
frame-relay edge routers 1700's to an ATM core router 7200VXR NPE-200 with
ATM DS3 routing traffic between all sites. Can anybody suggest any QOS
solutions to prioritize the Citrix traffic. So far I have reserched the
following:

Citrix Ports 1494/tcp ica
  1494/udp ica
  (not sure which of these needs more priority)
bandwidth ~ 20k per user (although I have heard that it can be a lot higher
than this)
average packet size 300 bytes
delay sensitive

I am looking at Priority queueing, but a little concerned about the warnings
that it may starve other traffic if the Citrix queue is constantly full. If
anyone has any suggestions, or played with this before it would much
appreciated.

Many Thanks

Steve

Chan,

You can get it from this site, but it is not free:
http://www.open.com.au/radiator/

It is a very good Radius product and easy to modify/customize.

Re: VTP Protocal Cisco 5000 and 3com Superstack II 1100

2001-01-10 Thread Steve Linney

I was looking into this Cisco/non-Cisco switch issue just recently and was
told that the 802.1q standard stipulates only 1 x STP, and yet with Cisco's
802.1q implementation you can have per vlan STP (not quite matching the
802.1q standard). Perhaps someone in the group can clear this issue up for
us.

 Hi Rico

 Take care ! I had many problems with set up a STP, trunking and
 802.1q between Cisco 5000 and Bay Networks.
 I gave up because finally I used just 1 link between these devices.
 I was surprised to see that FastEtherChannel on Cisco means trunking on
 Bays'.
 This is what somebody from CISCO staff suggested to me.

 Dear all,

 I wonder if anyone knows if it is possible to trunk a 3com Superstack II
 1100 with a Cisco 5000 serious switch.  3com switch is the client and
 recieving vlan info from Cisco5000? If it is possible which Trunking
 Protocal should be used?

 I appreciate the help...

Re: Bandwidth constraints for VoIP

2001-01-10 Thread Steve Linney

IOS 12.1.2T has generally been the recommended one, but I believe 12.1.5T is
now out.

 I think the best IOS version to use for VoIP came up in an earlier thread,
 so you might want to search the archives or perhaps people can remind us.
 Cisco made quite a few updates and bug fixes in the QoS for voice about a
 year ago, but I can't recall the IOS version number. Help anyone?

 Thank you so much for contributing. (Oh my God, Priscilla has given an
 answer to my question!! this must be my big lucky day!! have taken a
print
 out of the reply and kept it in my personal file, i will show it to my
 grand child someday!!)
 
 One last question though, and that is, if IOS 12.x is good enough to
 implement VoIP, or do I need to ask for additional features? Pardon for
 not adding the question in the first place (I am bit sluggish, as you may
 have noticed, in my thinking process!)

 Each CODEC has different capabilities for compressing voice, so you'll
have
 to know which CODEC you want to use first.
 
 The compressed voice is then put into an IP frame, so you will need to
take
 into account the bandwidth used by headers of the following sizes:
 
 20-byte IP header
 8-byte UDP header
 12-byte Real-Time Protocol (RTP) header
 
 On point-to-point links those headers can be compressed down to just a
few
 bytes. Even the IP header can be compressed if it's a point to point
link
 and IP addressing isn't needed for forwarding to the next hop.
 
 If you use Voice-Activity Detection (which uses no bandwidth during
 silence) you can further reduce bandwidth requirements.
 
 Finally, you need to take into account the data-link header, PPP, Frame
 Relay, whatever.
 
 According to a chart that I picked up at Networkers a couple years ago,
 here are a few examples:
 
 G.729 CODEC on PPP without compressed IP/UDP/RTP and without VAD uses
 26.4Kbps.
 
 G.729 CODEC on PPP with compressed IP/UDP/RTP and without VAD uses 11.2
Kbps.
 
 G.729 CODEC on PPP with compressed IP/UDP/RTP and with VAD uses 5.6
Kbps.
 
 G.729 CODEC on Frame Relay without compressed IP/UDP/RTP and without VAD
 uses 25.6Kbps.
 
 G.729 CODEC on Frame Relay with compressed IP/UDP/RTP and without VAD
uses
 10.4Kbps.
 
 G.729 CODEC on Frame Relay with compressed IP/UDP/RTP and with VAD uses
 5.2Kbps.
 
 I would copy and paste the whole chart but I only have hard copy. You
 should be able to find such a chart somewhere though.

 Hello Group!
 
 A very happy new year to you all!
 
 I was wondering if any one could advise what is the minimum Bandwidth
 required for Voice Over IP installation on Cisco Routers (Router Series
will
 be 2600).
 
 Is 64kbps is too steep for 4 simultaneous voice operations?
 
 Suggestion, advices welcome.

Re: Radius support in cisco routers

Nezar,

We needed to go to IP/Plus on a 1600 to get Radius support. This required
more flash than the 4mb we originally purchased.

 hello everyone,
 As far as I can see there is no Radius support in cisco's 16xx and =
 26xx series. Is it a software version limitation ? For example do newer =
 releases support radius ? Or is it a hardware limitation ? If this was =
 the case which series supports radius ?
 Thanks for your help.

Re: Voice Over IP

12.0.7T at least, 12.1.2T even better.

 Hi everybody,

 I need assistance on the VoIP problem I am facing :

 We are planning to have a VoIP setup on the already
 existing data link between our local and remote
 office.
 Both sites have Cisco 3640 routers configured for it.

 The router on the local site has IOS 11.3(9)T and the
 remote router has 12.0(5)T1 on it.

 Is it necessary for the routers at both ends be
 running a similar version of IOS for the Voice calls
 to be successful. What kind of upgrade is required?

 Secondly the loopback test (hairpinning) was
 successful for the local site but a similar test at
 the remote site was unsuccessful.
 Could that be due to any signalling problems ?

 Thanks  Regards

 Amit

Re: PAP

When you are using an NT user database to authenticate your dial-in users
you can't use CHAP because NT will not recognise the encrypted CHAP
password.
