HSRP on 6509 [7:15570]

2001-08-09 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

I have a problem here with HSRP on 6509.  The Cisco 6509 has 2 MSFC cards.
As I understand correctly, only the first card (active one) does the
routing.  The second card (standby one) should do NOTHING, unless the first
card goes down (please correct me if I am wrong).  In my case, things are
different.  It seems both cards do the routing.  When I do a trace on a
destination, the result flips flop between the actually IP addresses of the
vlan on both cards.  Let's say I have VLAN 100 with:

Virtual IP address = 10.100.1.100 255.255.0.0
IP address on first card (active) = 10.100.1.1 255.255.0.0
IP address on second card  (standbly) = 10.100.1.2 255.255.0.0

When I do the trace on a destination that pass through this 6509, some path
includes 10.100.1.1, while other includes 10.100.1.2

Is there some way I can check if the HSRP is configured correctly on my
6509?  Thanks in advance!

Thomas

Yes, I do run EIGRP.  Will EIGRP cause the problem?

Re: HSRP on 6509 [7:15570]

2001-08-09 Thread Thomas N.

OK, it seems that my 6509 is running an a hybrid mode.  It has 2 supervisor
engine cards running CATOS and 2 MSFC cards running IOS.  Also,  There are
multiple groups (one group per VLAN).  All group use the first MSFC card for
routing ( this is based on the "show standby" on the first card IOS that
said all the card is active for all VLANs).  I also have EIGRP and NAT
running on the first MSFC card (and of course on the second card with same
configuration).

Problem:
- Though the second MSFC card indicated that it is the standby router for
all VLANs (verified with "show standby" ), it actually still DOES the
routing and load balancing between the VLANs.
- Since the second MSFC is also configured for NAT with the exactly NAT
translation as the first MSFC, it actually NAT some of the IP addresses.

Question:
- Is there any way to keep the EIGRP still on both MSFC IOS and keep the
second MSFC stay standby still (no routing, no load balancing, no natting
and nothing else), listen and only kick off if the first MFSC died?

Thanks All for the help and suggestion!!!

Hi All,

On my Cisco 3620 router, I have two different IOS images.  One is on the
internal SIMM flash.  The other is on the PCMCIA flash card.  I would like
the router to boot the image from the PCMCIA card instead of the internal

There is some article on Cisco web site at show how to connect routers
back-to-back using the AUX ports.  So I think you can apply this to your two
routers, unless you intent to use the AUX ports for something else.

Re: RIPv2 [7:16105]

2001-08-14 Thread Thomas N.

Here is my scenario:

My CAT6509 has 2 supervisor1 and 2 MSFC1.  It runs HSRP in the Hyrid mode.
On this box, I also run EIGRP and NAT.  Every VLANs on the first msfc card
have higher priority and therefore in active mode.  VLANs on 2nd card have
lower priority and therefore should be in standby mode.  Here are the
problem:

- In Hyrid mode of HSRP, both MSFCs on the same chassis will be active and
do the routing.
- EIGRP sees paths through these VLANs (on both MSFCs) with the EXACTLY same
metric and therefore does the load balancing.
- With the NAT (static) turned on on both MSFCs, translated (NATed) packets
get confused between outside and inside VLANs because of EIGRP load
balancing.

I wonder if replacing EIGRP protocol with RIPv2 will solve the problem?
since RIPv2 metric is based on hop counts.  Below is my configuration on 2
MSFCs:

--
MSFC # 1

interface vlan 10
ip address 10.10.100.1 255.255.0.0
ip nat inside
standby 10 priority 100
standby 10 ip 10.10.100.100

interface vlan 20
ip address 10.20.100.1 255.255.0.0
ip nat inside
standbly 20 priority 100
standby 20 ip 10.20.100.100

interface vlan 30
ip address 198.198.198.1  255.255.255.0
ip  nat outside
standby 30 priority 100
standby 30 ip 198.198.198.100

Router EIGRP 200
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary

-

MSFC # 2

interface vlan 10
ip address 10.10.100.2  255.255.0.0
ip nat inside
standby 10 priority 50
standby 10 ip 10.10.100.100

interface vlan 20
ip address 10.20.100.2 255.255.0.0
ip nat inside
standbly 20 priority 50
standby 20 ip 10.20.100.100

interface vlan 30
ip address 198.198.198.2  255.255.255.0
ip  nat outside
standby 30 priority 50
standby 30 ip 198.198.198.100

Router EIGRP 200

Re: problems with uploading cisco image [7:16404]

2001-08-17 Thread Thomas N.

That boot ROM is too old.  It cannot recognize the 8MB flash module.  You
need at least boot ROM version 5.2 in order to read the 8MB flash module.
The latest boot ROM is 11.0(10c) I believe.  You can get these boot ROM from
Cisco.

Configure Register on Cisco 2500 router - urgent! [7:17087]

2001-08-23 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

Cisco 2500 have the factory-default setting of 0x2102 for the register.
This will boot from the IOS image on the flash WITH the configuration on the
NVRAM.  I wonder what other value I can use beside this 0x2102?

My original problem was that I just upgraded the IOS for this Cisco 2500
router.  The upgrade was successfully.  I got the correct checksum.  The
register setting was then changed back t the factory-default 0x2102 (changed
to 0x2141 for booting from Boot mode to upgrade the image).  However, when I
rebooted the router, the router kept reseting itself.  I wonder if there is
any other value beside 0x2102  that I can use for the register to let the
router boot from the flash with the configuration?  The router was also
hardware upgrade with:

- Boot ROM = 11.0(10c)
- 16MB flash
- 16MB memory

The new IOS image is IP/H.323 version 12.2(1)

Thomas N.

Connect 6509 with CONSOLE [7:17983]

Hi All,

I attempted to access to the CAT 6509 with the CONSOLE port today.  This

bits = 8, Parity = none, Stope bit = 2 (as indicated on Cisco.com), Flow
control = none.

There's also a little hidden hole right next to the CONSOLE port labelled as
"Console mode...".  I don't know if I have to change something to access the
console? Also, if I have to press that hidden hole to access the Console
mode, will it affect the production enviroment?  Thanks All in advance!

Reseting Supervisor Engine and/or MSFC [7:18138]

2001-08-31 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

My 6509 has dual Supervisor Engines and dual MSFC cards.  It runs in Hyrid
mode.  I plan to upgrade the IOS of the MSFC cards only, NOT the Supervisor
Engines.  I wonder:

1. Is IOS version of MSFC dependent on the CATOS version of Supervisor
Engine?
2. When I reset after the upgrade, do I have to reset the whole module
(Supervisor Engine + MSFC) or just the MSFC?  If I cannot reset only the
MSFC, in what mode should I issue the reset command?  CATOS or IOS in this
case (IOS is in session 15 or 16)? Will this reset both the Supervisor and
the MSFC?
3. Should I not losing the configuration which I assumed they're saved in
NVRAM of the MSFC or Sup. Engine?

Again,  Thanks much to All!!!

Thomas N.

Re: Working ISL/DOT1Q config [7:18070]

2001-08-31 Thread Thomas N.

I ran into this problem before.  The way you configure would work only if
you encapsulate using ISL.  If you use the dot1q, you have to configure the
physical interface FE0/0 with a management VLAN (VLAN 1 by default).
Sub-interfaces will be assigned a different VLAN and encapsulated with
dot1q.

VPN Management and Reporting for Cisco Site-to-site VPN [7:62418]

2003-02-03 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All,

I am deploying Site-to-site VPN using Cisco IOS routers.  I am wondering
what software package offering the management, connectivity monitoring of
tunnels, and content reporting available?  How much it costs?  Thanks!

Thomas

EIGRP vs. OSPF [7:62419]

2003-02-03 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All,

I have been using EIGRP for our routing protocol for the last couple years,
which is prettly great.  The controversal of selecting the routing protocol
came up again recently.  I would like to have your opinion on EIGRP vs.
OSPF, which one is refered?  What's the weakness and advantage?  Thanks!

Thomas

Re: EIGRP vs. OSPF [7:62419]

2003-02-04 Thread Thomas N.
Interesting! I learned OSPF on BSCN book but never deploy it.  EIGRP has
been very easy to configured and very fast converged comparing to RIP/RIPv2.
It seems OSPF gets lots of favor as a stardard protocol.  I am curious if
OSPF support load sharing on equal / unequal paths? Thanks All for the
input!

Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) [7:63000]

2003-02-13 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All,

Cisco announced the new feature of Dynamic Multipoint VPN on the new Cisco
IOS 12.2(13)T version.  I wonder if anyone has implemented it yet?  How is
it working? Couple concerns I am having if designing our WAN using this new
feature:

- Does it support "RSA nonces" authentication?
- Could it be implemented with both static crypto map to one hub site and
DMVPN to the other hub site (DMVPN hub/server)?
- Does it support QoS?

Thanks All!

Thomas

Re: layer 3 switch [7:63407]

2003-02-20 Thread Thomas N.
By default, all 3550 acts as a layer-2 switch.  In order to provide layer-3
routing, you will have to put on the "ip routing" on the global
configuration mode.

Also,  All interfaces on the boxes are set as layer-2 switch (no ip
address).

VLAN loop problem [7:66656]

2003-04-01 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All,

I got a problem in the production campus LAN here between VLANs.  Please
help me out!  Below is the scenario:

We have VLAN 10 (10.10.x.x) and VLAN 20 (10.20.x.x) subnets.  Routing is
enable/allowed between the two subnets using MSFC of the 6500.  Each subnet
has a DHCP server to assign IP address to devices on its subnet.
Spanning-tree is enable; however, portfast is turned on on all
non-trunking/uplink ports.  Recently, devices on VLAN 10 got assigned an IP
address of 10.20.x.x , which is from the DHCP on the other scope and also
from 10.10.x.x scope, and vice versa.  It seems that we a loop somewhere
between the 2 subnets but we don't know where.  I noticed lots of end users
have a little unmanged hub/switch hang off the network jacks in their
cubicals and potentially cause loop.

Is there any way that we can block the loop on the Cisco switches without
visiting cubicals taking those little umanaged hubs/switches?  Thanks!

Thomas

RJ48-RJ48 cable [7:70596]

2003-06-12 Thread Thomas N
Hi All,

I am wondering what is the difference between the RJ48 and RJ45
connector/cable?  I am setting a router with a integrated CSU/DSU
(WIC-1DSU-T1) with a T1 RJ48 connection hand off by the ISP.  They however
do not provide the cable.  Could I make a cable with RJ45 connectors for
this?  What would be the pinout for both end of the cable?  Does the
direction of the cable connection matter?  It's urgent. Please help. Thanks
in advance!

Re: VLAN configuration question [7:18696]

2001-09-05 Thread Thomas N.

Well, I used to test VLANs before.  Here is what I did:

- If you use ISL for encapsulation, then you should not assign IP address to
the physical interface.

- If you use 802.1q for encapsulation, then you must assign an IP address to
the physical interface.  This IP address (network) must be the management
VLAN/network (VLAN 1 by default).  Also, the default-gateway is supposed to
point to the management VLAN, which is the IP address of the physical
interface.

Re: CCNA question with routing setup [7:18572]

2001-09-05 Thread Thomas N.

Well, your configuration seem to miss something.  Make sure that from one
router, you can ping the IP address of the serial port of the other router.
This will make sure that your frame-relay setting is working.  If you cannot
ping the serial of the other router, make sure you put "no keepalive" on the
serial interface of each router.  Assign DLCI number to the serial port and
map the PVC using "frame-relay map..."

RIPv1 (or RIP) does not support VLSM (variable length subnet mask), which is
classless address.  When you put:

Router RIP
  network 192.168.0.0

It will automatically summarize the network to be 192.168.0.0 / 24, which
none of your networks belongs to.  If you run latest IOS, you can use RIPv2,
which allows you to turn off the Auto-Summary.  To enable RIP version 2,
configure both routers as follow:

Router RIP
  version 2
  network 192.168.0.0
  no auto-summary

Good luck!

Also, make sure that you put "no keepalive" on the physical interface.

Boot image from the PCMCIA card [7:19076]

2001-09-07 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

My Cisco 3620 router has both internal flash SIMM and the external PCMCIA
flash card.  Each flash hold a different version of the IOS image.  If I
want the router to boot from the IOS image from the PCMCIA card, what boot
system command should I use?  Thanks!

Question on routing [7:19083]

2001-09-07 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

I ran into a scenario below and I am not sure what path router A will choose
to reach the destination network, 10.50.0.0 / 255.255.0.0, on router B.

  10.1.1.1 / 255.255.0.0
  |
--S0- Router A-S1-
||
||
||
||
--S0-Router B- S1--
  |
  E0 = 10.50.1.1 / 255.255.0.0

---
Router A configuration:
Interface serial 0
ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.0
no shut

Interface Serial 1
ip address 172.16.2.1 255.255.255.0
no shut

Interface Ethernet 0
ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.0.0

EIGRP 200
network 172.16.1.0
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary

ip classless
ip route 10.48.0.0 255.224.0.0 serial 1

Router B configuration
Interface serial 0
ip address 172.16.1.2 255.255.255.0
no shut

Interface Serial 1
ip address 172.16.2.2 255.255.255.0
no shut

Interface Ethernet 0
ip address 10.50.1.1 255.255.0.0
no shut

EIGRP 200
network 172.16.1.0
network 172.16.2.0
network 10.0.0.0
no auto-summary
--

In this scenario, I assume router B knows how to reach 10.1.1.1 using both
serial ports with EIGRP (administrative distance = 90).  Router A has two
paths to reach 10.50.1.1 destination:  1st path is learned through EIGRP
with administrative distance of 90; the 2nd path is with the static route
with network 10.48.0.0 and subnet mask of 255.224.0.0 or 12 bits.  If I am
not wrong, 10.48.0.0 / 255.224.0.0 will cover a range of IP addresses from
10.48.0.0 to 10.63.255.255; therefore, 10.50.1.1 falls into this scope.

If I do the "show ip route",  I will see both routes 10.50.0.0 / 16 and
10.48.0.0 / 12.

My questions are:

1.  With those 2 paths to reach 10.50.1.1, which path Router A will choose
as a primary path?
2.  If the path between 2 serial 0 of the 2 routers is down, Can router A
reach 10.50.1.1 on router B with such a static route?

Thanks All!

Video/Voice over IP [7:19351]

2001-09-10 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

My company is concerning about running voice/video over IP network.  Our WAN
is running on fractial T1, so bandwidth limitation is a big problem to us.
What will be the mininum bandwidth requirement for voice and video traffic?
128k?  Thanks!

Modules for Voice/IP [7:19355]

2001-09-10 Thread Thomas N.

I started working on the voice/video over IP project and considering about
the hardware needed.  From Cisco, they have IP/VC 3520 boxes acting as the
gateways between the IP network and the PSTN.  However, it seems they also
have modules for Cisco 2600/3600 that act in the same manner as those IP/VC
3520.  Do you think I can substitute these modules with the IP/VC 3520 so
that I can convert my IP network to PSTN for voice and video (said,
conference room...)???  What models should I use for 2600 and 3600? Thanks
All!

Re: Question on routing [7:19083]

2001-09-10 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

First, let me sorry for the inaccurate information in the puzzle.  The
static IP address 10.48.0.0 is with 12 bits subnet mask (255.240.0.0, NOT
255.224.0.0).  I didn't have my subnet calculator last time.  So, the scope
of IP address for 10.48.0.0/255.240.0.0 will include 10.48.0.0 to
10.63.255.255.

Well, for more specific information, I am setting up a lab in which routes
are learning dynamically with EIGRP while having a static routing pointing
for a dummy VPN boxes for redundancy.  These VPN boxes only do static
mapping for routes.  If the primary link between the two hub sites (learning
through EIGRP) got killed, the first hub site is supposed to route its
spokes and its subnets to reach the other hub and other spokes with static
routes.  However, instead of putting a bundle of static routes, I decided to
use summaried routes (10.48.0.0/255.240.0.0) to cover.  Thing is not that
simple.  The router might think 10.48.0.0/12 and 10.50.0.0/16 as two
separate networks.  If following the "more specific rule", the 10.50.0.0
network should act as the primary even it has administrative distance of 90.
So the 10.48.0.0/12 should be ignored even it has an administrative distance
of 1.  In this case, I don't even need the floating static route (make a
static route with admin. distance greater than 90), in order to make the
static route as the secondary route for backup.  Should my analyze correct?
I might setup the lab and see what the routers will act.  However, I would
like to test my theory and analyzing...  Please give me your thought!
Thanks!

Video/voice over IP [7:19905]

2001-09-13 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

In my lab scenario, I have an conference video camera that is connected to
the LAN.  On the router, I have a 2600 router with a VIC-2BRI-NT/TE module.
This VIC-2BRI-NT/TE mdule is then connected to the a MCU from the ISP
provider for video conference (say, AT&T).  Do you think it is possible to
implement so that my video conference camera can call the ISP MCU with ISDN
lines using the gateway mdule VIC-2BRI-NT/TE?  Thanks!!!

Traffic Shaping [7:21991]

2001-10-03 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

I implemeted the Traffic Shaping using map-class and assigned to
subinterfaces.  The PVCs sharing that physical interfaces however increase
in reply time and eventually timeout.  What did I do wrong?  When I tried
General Traffic Shaping, it worked with "traffic-shape rate" and
"traffic-shape adaptive" commands.  The reason I would like to implement
Traffic Shaping with map-class because I would like to apply "Frame-Relay

MCSE vs. CCNA/CCNP [7:23471]

2001-10-18 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

I know this may be a stupid question, but I just wanna know your feeling in
comparing between the value of MCSE and CCNA/CCNP certifications.  If you
are a hiring manager or a technical person who handles the interviewing,
what certification is more value or more "weight" to you...?

Cheers,
Thomas N.

Re: Mulilayer Switch (MLS) on CAT 4006 [7:24142]

2001-10-25 Thread Thomas N.

Well, please correct me if I am wrong.  As my understanding, MLS is the main
feature of Layer 3 switch (5000, 6000, 6500... not sure 4000 products).  MLS
allows hosts on different subnets talking at the wire speed after initially
routed by the route processor.  After that, MAC of these hosts and the flow
is added on the MLS cache table; therefore these hosts can tranfer packets
with no further routing needed (at layer 2).  Without MLS enabled, all
packets to/from host on different hosts have to be routed with the Route
Processor (MSFC or RPM...) and therefore got bottleneck there.

Re: Multilayer Switching [7:24595]

Sorry all for the confusion.  I mean I could not enable MLS on VLANs that
are running NAT.  When I put "mls rp ip" on VLAN interfaces that have NAT
running,  I didn't get any error message.  However, when I did the "show mls
rp interfaces"  I didn't see VLANs with NAT on the list of VLANs running
MLS.

Redundancy between 6506 with a single sup. eng. each box? [7:25028]

2001-11-01 Thread Thomas N.

Hi Group,

I have this scenario and wonder if it is possible to setup the topology with
redundancy.   I have a CAT 6509 acting as the core switch (say switch A),
and 2 other CAT 6506 acting as the distribution switches (say switch B and
C).  Both switch B and C have fiber uplinks to core switch A.  Switches A
and B also have a redundant fiber between them.  Regarding the hardware, The
core 6509 has 2 supervisor engines with dual MSFCs.  The two 6506 have only
one supervisor engine and their MSFC DO NOT do routing at all.

My concern/question is that if the supervisor engine of one of the
distribution 6506 died, can access switches attached to this 6506 re-route
to the redundant link?  I doubt this will work because the the supervisor
engine of the 6506 has all the configuration (including vlans) for the
ports/trunks attached to access switches died.  Is there any way to to set
them up so that if the supervisor engine on one distribution 6506 dies, all
ports/trunks on this 6506 can still be OK with redundant link?  Putting dual
supervisor engines on each 6506 will be my last solution.  Thanks All!

Thomas N.

How to add external MLS-RP on a CAT 6500 sup. engine? [7:25169]

2001-11-02 Thread Thomas N.

My 6506 has 3 MSFCs but they do not do any routing.  Instead, the box is
uplink to another 6509 that has MSFCs doing routing.  By default, the 6506
has MLS enabled and uses its own MSFCs as MLS-RPs.  How should I exclude
these MSFCs and point the supervisor engines of this 6506 to use MSFCs of
the 6509 as the MLS-RP?  The command set on 6500 is not the same as the CAT
5000.  Thanks!

Re: GRE on Cisco routers [7:57836]

2002-11-21 Thread Thomas N.
EIGRP, OSPF and RIPv2 do routing update with multicast traffic.  IPSec alone
does not support multicast.  GRE does support multicasting traffic.  You can
use GRE over IPSec tunnel to run routing protocol such as EIGRP, OSPF or
RIPv2.

VoIP over IP-VPN [7:57880]

2002-11-22 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All - I am wondering if anyone here has VoIP working well over IPSec
tunnels?  Cisco said this could be done, but I am not sure how this approach
works in a practical internet enviroment?  Thanks!

VLAN identity [7:58559]

2002-12-04 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All,

I am wondering if the VLAN number is valid locally on a LAN only or it goes
across the WAN link?  In my scenario, I have two LANs separated with 2 WAN
routers.  On the LAN # 1, I assign a VLAN 100 with IP address (gateway) of
10.100.1.1.  On LAN # 2, I assign another VLAN 100 but with an IP address of
10.200.1.1.  The WAN link is using a 172.16.10.0 subnet, and does routing
between 10.0.0.0 and 172.16.10.0 networks.

My question is that will VLAN 100 on LAN # 1 distinguishes from VLAN 100 on
the LAN # 2?  Can I have 2 different subnets with the same VLAN ID number
but sitting on 2 separate LANs?  Hosts in the first VLAN 100 should not talk
to others in the second VLAN 100 without using the routers?  Thanks All!

Thomas

Re: VLAN identity [7:58559]

2002-12-05 Thread Thomas N.
Hi Larry,

I am using trunking on the LAN side of the routers to route between VLANs.
However, WAN interfaces of these routers are not configured as trunk.  The
WAN link is just connected using a different subnet.  And no, I don't use
bridging.  So if VLAN is just local significant, should it not be a problem?
Thanks!

MTU size for IPSec+GRE tunnel [7:62161]

2003-01-29 Thread Thomas N.
Hi All,

I am trying to avoid fragmentation of packets across the IPSec+GRE tunnel
with "transform-set" using "ah-sha-hmac" AND "esp-3des" for header
authentication and payload encryption.  What size of MTU or "TCP
addjust-MSS" should I use for maximum performance?  I tried out couple
values and found TCP adjust-mss of 1076 worked out OK most, but still don't
understand why.  According Cisco whitepaper, reducing MTU to about 1400
should void the fragmentation but it didn't work in my case.  Please help.
Thanks!

Thomas

VPN tunnel with IPSec over GRE [7:54634]

2002-10-01 Thread Thomas N.

Hi All,

I am setting up a site-to-site VPN between 2 LANs using Cisco IOS VPN (Cisco
2600 routers).  I could get the tunnel up and running between the two LANs
with IPSec over GRE so that I can run EIGRP.  Data transfer between 2 LANs
across the tunnel looks OK, and all dynamic routes learned with EIGRP.
However, a problem come up when I put a Proxy Server on the first LAN and
force Internet traffic from workstations from the second LAN to go out with
this Proxy server.  Workstations from the second LAN could browse Internet
across the tunnel to reach the Proxy server then hit the Internet; however,
the performance is very poor (seem like browsing over a 56k modem).  I am
thinking this may be because of fragmentation on the 2 routers.  Is there
any work around for this issue?  If MTU size needs to be adjusted, what
would be the ideal MTU size for IPSec over GRE tunnel in "tunnel" mode?
Again, thank you All for the help!

Thomas N.

Re: VPN tunnel with IPSec over GRE [7:54634]

2002-10-01 Thread Thomas N.

Thank you All for the confirmation!  I used extended ping with DF bit set as
Richarde mentioned and found out that the packet size that can fit into the
tunnel without fragmentation is much less than 1500 bytes.  I also went over
couple white papers from Cisco website.  They mentions about using "ip tcp
adjust-mss ", "ip mtu " as well as "tunnel path-mtu-discovery"
command.  I tried to apply these commands on the routers at the 2 endpoints
of the tunnel but it still didn't work.  I see myself running into the
confusion and have couple questions regarding:

- What's the difference between "ip tcp adjust-mss " and "ip mtu
" commands?
- Which one should I use? or both?
- Which and where I should apply these commands? on the tunnel interfaces,
Ethernet segment, or on the Internet interface?

Below is my topology.  Client machine needs to pass through the tunnel, then
hit the Proxy Server for Internet access.  Again, thank you All for the
HELP!!!


Client ---> Fa0/0-RouterA-Fa0/1---> IPSec over GRE
tunnel --->Fa0/1-RouterB-Fa0/0---> Proxy Server---> Internet

ACL for DMVPN [7:74028]

2003-08-15 Thread Thomas N
I got a lab setup simulating DMVPN with IPSec over GRE.  I would like to
apply an access control list to the outside interface of the routers to
block everything, except for TCP/UPD ports that are needed for GRE, IPSec,
IKE and those related to DMVPN implementation.  Does someone know what ports
should I open on the ACL?  Thanks!
