Help Please! BGP question, why do I get Not advertised to any [7:31528]
BGP question, why do I get Not advertised to any peer Below is from an isolated lab configuration, appologies to the actual owners of any addresses of AS numbers used. I have two routers connected together via a serial line. They are in AS400. They are both connected to AS100 via another serial line. Both have a route map affecting advertisements to AS100. They each have an ethernet with a /24 on it. The /24 is getting into BGP via a network command. The two routers have the loopbacks 6.6.6.6 and 9.9.9.9 network 100.0.0.0 /24 is connected to the ethernet of router 6.6.6.6 network 100.0.1.0 /24 is connected to the ethernet of router 9.9.9.9 When I am on router 6.6.6.6 and I look at the advertisement of network 100.0.1.0 /24 is looks fine When i am on router 9.9.9.9 and I look at the advertisement of network 100.0.0.0 /24 it says Not advertised to any peer Any ideas why the difference Why can't 100.0.0.0 be avertised to any peer?

cat 1900 what's the diff between mac-adx-table restricted and [7:14498]
The CCNA study guide does a real poor job (as does the cisco command reference) of describing exactly what the difference between mac-address-table restricted and mac-address-table permananet does. Resticted seems to just make sure that only a specific source mac can be plugged into a specific port But permanent seems to route frame with a specific destination mac out a specific interface (or interfaces) Which to me seems like routing, and I'm hard pressed to figure out why you would want to do that statically.

Re: no ip classless [7:7100]
Cisco routers by default are still classfull, even though the internet has long since gone classless. For a router to effective understand CIDR routes that don't fall on classfull boundrys it is necessary to turn off the default by executing the command ip classless If for some reason you live in a time warp, and your network is fully classfull, and you just got a used router from someone who was using it on a classless network, and you wanted to convert it back to being classfull you would execute the command no ip classless. Why Classless? Lets say you have a large network, and you happen to own a class A network. Lets say the 5.0.0.0 network. Lets say that one of the interfaces on your router connects to another router which connects to your larger network. Let say that on your end the interface address is 5.0.0.1 /30 and on the other end the address is 5.0.0.2 /30. Lets say you have a default route pointing out the serial interface that has the 5.0.0.1 interface. If you then tried to reach something else in the 5.0.0.0 network, say 5.1.2.3, the packet would go to your router. (remember our router is configured for classfull, the default). Then your router would say to itself hey I have an interface in the 5 network, that means that all of 5.0.0.0 /8 must be connected to me, but I don't see the specific network I'm trying to reach (5.1.2.3) sop I guess it doesn't exist so I'll throw the packet away That's what happens if your router is set to classful SO to recap Classfull cisco default BAD Classless need ip classless command GOOD hope this helps Tom At 12:31 PM 06/04/2001 -0400, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In what situation would you use the command no ip classless?

Re: Transparent Bridging ? [7:7126]
It sounds to me like you still have a layer three address somehwere on one of your routers, and that you maight still have a default gateway on one of your PCs pointing to that adx. I would pose the question, are both PC's configured to be on the same network? DO they have the same mask? If either of them have a default gateway configured I would turn that off for the testing just to limit the number of variables. If the routers arte configured to be bridges they should be totally transparent. You should not be able to ARP them because ARP requires a destination IP address, and if they are just bridges they won't have any IP addresses my $.02 At 03:22 PM 06/04/2001 -0400, Philip Barker wrote: Hi Group, I vill say ziss only vonce. Okay, its my second attempt at trying to work out how I can bridge IP across to 2500's. I have 2 2500's configured with no ip routing. 2 PC's are connected at either end, i.e one to bridge 1 and one to bridge 2. I have a sniffer on both PC's. I am attempting to ping from one PC to the other. IEEE spanning tree is applied on both bridges. The bridges are connected via a serial cable and the serial ports of the bridges as well as the Ethernet ports are in bridge group 1. I have verified spanning tree operation and one of the serial ports has been elected root port on bridge 1, the other bridge is the designated bridge. Ref : Radia Perlman, Interconnections p.83. So far so good. I have configured the PC's with a default gateway to the IP address of each of the bridges. When I attempt to ping from one PC to the other, I can see from my Sniffer trace that the PC ARP's for the MAC Address of the bridge, this ARP is successful and the PC then sends out an ICMP echo request. This echo request appears to be my problem since the destination MAC address of this packet contains the Ethernet Mac address of the local bridge and the local bridge consequently disregards the packet. Should the PC have an ARP entry installed for the destination IP address that I am pinging ? Has anyone achieved this scenario ? or am I way off mark with my thinking here. The reason I set this LAB up was because so many questions appear to be being asked at CCIE written level akin to this setup i.e can PC 1 ping PC 2 in similar arrangement using (RSRB/DLSW+/SRB etc) Any comments welcome.

Re: OSPF summary-address question [7:6487]
remember that with ospf if you are redisting a network without its classfull mask IE if you are using the network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 that you must use the subnets keyword, or else the route will not be redistributed. Or something like that. As with everything on cisco's it assumes classfull (whgich is long dead) as a default and you must use a special command to get CIDR (which is the defacto standard on the internet) to work go figure At 01:38 PM 05/30/2001 -0400, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm working through Slatterly and Hutchnik's Lab Practice Kit and I'm stuck on the very last portion of their OSPF lab. In this portion of the lab they have OSPF redistributing into IGRP. On the router with OSPF and IGRP, the IGRP interface has an IP address with a 24 bit mask. Because of this, the OSPF networks being redistributed into IGRP need to have 24 bit masks. The book's recommendation was to add a summary-address command to the OSPF process to set the OSPF networks being redistributed into IGRP to a 24 bit subnet mask. This would be affecting the redistribution from OSPF into IGRP. My understanding was that the summary-address command was to affect networks being redistributed into OSPF. Also, adding the summary-address command doesn't work for me, although using the area range command on an ABR does allow the routes to be successfully redistributed into IGRP. Can someone tell me if the summary-address command is supposed to work in this scenario and if there are any gotchas in getting it working.

Re: BGP question [7:4973]
Greetings All I think the context of some of the conversation is missing. BGP can handle any class of address, and in fact the BGP being run on the net at present (BGP4) is classless. The whole reason for CIDR was that it was intended to shrink the size of the BGP routing tables. SO them saying BGP will only work with class C is totally bogus! BUT Any ISP running BGP will implement a BGP policy, a hopefully uniform way in which they do BGP routing and handle BGP peering with their customers. There may be rules they have set up regarding how they do BGP, and you may be asking for something outside of the capabilities of their Policy. That doesn't mean BGP can't do it, it means they do not do that. As for your having a class A address. Who do you work for? There are only 127 class A addresses, mopst belonging to ISPs or the Government, or Reserved. I can think of one compnay who has a Class A, HP, they have the 15.0.0.0 network. However if you have a RFC1918 Class A that you're using that's a whole different story. What is your address range, and which ISP told you they couldn't handle class A addresses? Inquiring minds want to know Tom Rizzo Damian wrote: Hey folks, I have a quick question regarding BGP. We are looking for an alternative ISP for our Internet. One company we spoke with that offers a 100MB connection, said that in order to use their services we need to implement BGP on our Internet router.

BGP Dampening, What is a flap? [7:1128]
Greetings All I am in the process of writing a BGP class, at present I am specifically working on a section covering dampening. My question is "what is a flap" The two possible answers are: Answer one A flap is whenever path information changes for a route. By this definition if a route goes away, that would be a flap. When the route comes back, that would be another flap. So a route going away then coming back would be 2 flaps. Answer two A flap is a route transition from up to down back to up. So a route going away then coming back would count as one flap. I am mucking with this in my lab and the lab would seem to indicate that answer two is the correct one, but when I read the Sam Halabi copyright 1997 internet routing architectures book, page 440 and 441 it says the answer is Answer one.

RE: Spanning Tree Question - Root Port Selection
When switch send spanning tree updates those updates are sent in BPDUs (bridge protocol data units). The BPDU will have a source mac address associated with the originating switch/VLAN number. If a switch recieves multiple BPDUs that indicate the same root cost it will pick the one which came from the switch with the lowest (I'm pretty sure it's lowest and not highest but I may be wrong) MAC address. There is also a port priority which I believe (I'm not sure) can be configured to aid in the selection of the root port At 09:01 AM 02/06/2001 -0600, Jim Dixon wrote: Hi Nathan, Have you read Radia Perlman's Interconnections.

Most of the books that I have searched for this information say something similar to the following quote from a CCO page: "A bridge's root port is the port through which the root bridge can be reached with the least aggregate path cost, a value that is called the root path cost." My problem is that they all seem to stop there. My question is this. If the root path cost is the same on multiple switch ports, how does STA determine which is the root port? Does it follow the same course as it would when selecting a designated port (root bridge, root path cost, sender ID, sender port). Many thanks for your thoughts.

Re: IP unnumbered and OSPF
Greetings Karl I can't remember exactly where I read that , but I did. More specifically you can't have ip unnumbered on an interface running OSPF because there is no address to be neighbors with. If what you want to do is have a router with some ospf interfaces and some other interface not running ospf, and you want unnumbered on the non-OSPF interfaces, I think taht would be OK.

Re: ip route question
I think it will work, but I suspect there is a caveat. Think about it, Lets say your ethernet 0 interface is 1.1.1.1 /24 and you have a default route ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ethernet 0 then lets say my router receives a packet destined for an IP address it doesn't otherwise know a route to, let's say 10.10.10.10 how could that work? How would it know which device (assuming there are multiple devices) on the ethernet to send the packet to? With that default router I am assuming that you would have to arp for the mac address associated with 10.10.10.10 If a device on the ethernet knew a route to 10.10.10.10, and it had proxy arp enabled, then it could respond to the arp and the packet would be sent to it. Proxy arp is usually on by default on a per interface basis on ciscos. You can see if proxy arp is on by doing a show ip interface e0 (or whatever number interface you're dealing with) But I'd bet if you had proxy arp turned off it would not work!

Re: switch port IP address
I'm not sure what is downstream of your switch, what types of devices, but I'm pretty damn sure that there is no command on a catalyst switch (a layer two device) which will tell you the IP addresses of the devices connected to it. The switch not only doesn't know, it doesn't care. Presumably you have a router which is upstream of the switch and all devices hanging off of the switch have the ip address of the router interface (which connects to the switch) as their default gateway. Only the router will know the IP addresses. Depending on your needs and urgency the only way to really deal with this would be to write a script which takes the cam table from the switch (which will list mac addresses and ports to which they connect) and the arp table from the router (which will map mac addresses to IP addresses) and match them up so you end up with a list of IP associated with MAC associated with switch port. I am pretty much positive the switch doesn't know the ip addreses. As you mentioned cdp neighbor detail will tell you the address, but that will only work for cisco devices running cdp. Doesn't help you at all for devices from other manufacturers.

Re: ********* Access List Enquiry **************
I think it is the normal practice because historically that was the only capability which routers had (filtering on destination ports) and as the IOS became more capable people were either unsure, or reluctant to change their ways. The second example is more secure, and to take it a step further (towards tighter security) I would filter on established too (where appropriate). The gt 1023 refers to the random high numbered port that a hosts assigns for the response to any packet sent to a well known port. Another observation of your example is that you are filtering on TCP port 53. TCP port 53 is only used for zone transfers between a 2ndry and a primary DNS server. Normal lookups, the type done by the majority of hosts on the net, use UDP port 53. Tom At 10:28 PM 10/30/2000 +0800, GNOME wrote: Hi All Which one of the access-list is normally use?

Re: Easing Internet backbone traffic..thoughts..!
Well actually the "Big 11" ISPs which were refferred to in the article do the same thing with each other. Most of the big ISPs privately peer with each other (avoiding overcrowded MAEs etc.) and having been doing so for some time. Do a few traceroutes and see. If you are not directly connected to one of the "Big 11" or more correctly "Tier One" ISPs then you are probably connected to a smaller DSP (downstream provider) who is directly connected to them. You hand your traffic to youre DSP, they hand it to their upstream ISP who in turn hands it to whichever Tierone ISP the destination address hangs off of (or something like that). There are a lot of smaller fish who still move their traffic through the MAEs (which tend to be slow and congested) and the Tier One ISPs still maintain a presence at the MAEs, they just don't peer with everyone there. The thing to keep in mind is that traffic on the net tends to be asynchronous so its important that both the outbound and the return path for a connection have ample available bandwidth. This is what drives a lot of the peering relationships the Tier One ISPs enter into; a garantee that both sides have a robust coast to coast network. If you bought a direct connection from a Tier one ISP you should get the same level (if not better) of throughput you would get from Internap My $.02 At 09:57 AM 09/28/2000 -0700, Erick B. wrote: I looked at that article, and it sounds kind of like a old approach to a new problem.

In the long term, it's going to cost lots of $ to maintain a connection to every backbone ISP and associated costs with each of those connections. I don't know what they charge their customers, but for local companies it may be cheaper in the long term to run fiber and connect directly to their network perhaps. --- Ejay Hire [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It kind of violates the way it's supposed to work though.

Re: ACL question
I'm not sure I quite understand the question, but based on what I think is being asked, I would say that allowing only traffic addressed from the local lan to enter the router through the local ethernet interface would prevent anyone on the local lan from using a spoofed address to launch and attack onto the internet. The profelactic result would be similar to using Reverse Path Verification on the upstream router. my $ .02 At 10:19 AM 09/25/2000 -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: What are the advantages/disadvantages/logic behind creating an access list that would permit only the local subnet to access and enter a router's one and only ethernet LAN interface?

Re: BECN s on Frame-Relay
BECNs are mesages from the network; sourced by the network switches which the telco has control over, they are used to inform end devices or frame-relay subscribers (like yourself) that they (the telco switch) have entered a congested state. If elevated traffic levels continue the switch will begin to relieve congestion by selectively discarding frames with the DE (discard eligible) bit set to one. In other words these messages (BECNs) are intended to make users aware of a possible degraded network state. Its a warning (from the Telco) saying if you're over utilizing your link, back off because we're gonna have to start dropping frames if this congestion doesn't subside. If you notice continual accrual of BECNs causing you grief (delays, latency etc) you might want to get the telco to reconfigure your path (PVC) through their network.

problem , terminal servers being hung
Greetings All I currently have a ticket open with the cisco TAC on this , but it's been open for over a week and they are just scratching their heads (or virtually scratching their heads). I have a lab environment. There are a number of routers in the lab, most 2500 series but also a couple of 4000s. The routers console ports are all connected to terminal servers (two of them with the routers in the equipment racks). These terminal servers are then on a network. There is also a classroom with a mix of dumb terminals and PCs running terminal emulators (hyperterminal). The dumb terminals and OCs are tied into a third terminal server which is in the classroom. Students go from ther classroom terminal server into the lab one and connect to the routers. The problem is is that when they disconnect (using cntrl-shft-6 x) the lines on the router end tend to stay busy. I can log into the lab terminalk servers (either of them) and see that even though the student has disconnected the line is still busy. I can clear the lines (clear line #) or clear disconnect the session (disco #) but the line just comes busy again. The only way to clear it is to reboot the router. The intent was fro students to be able to access the console ports of many different routers. It seems line when twe break the cxonnection on the lab terminal server that the router is still trying to talk to it so it busies the line ansd there is then no way to get in (other than a reboot). I can't believe the terminal servers are supposed to work like this (which is what the TAC is implying). You should be able to log into a router; log out; then have someone different log in. Isn't that the whole point of a terminal server? I have swapped cables and terminals servers so I know that that is not the problem. Any Ideas?

Re: OSPF question...
Greetings Eric On a router (lets call it router A) , if you have seperate OSPF processes; lets say process 1 and process 2 They will NOT be mixed on router A. Router A will have two seperate OSPF tables. When you do a show ip route you should see both but I suspect the routes from process 1 will have a 1 in front of them somewhere and the ones from process 2 will have a 2 in front of them somewhere. You were correct in saying that the only way to get the routes from process 1 into process 2 (or vice versa) is to redistribute them. Keep in mind though that that separation only happens on router A lets say router A has three interfaces s1 s2 s3 s1 is connected to router B s2 is connected to router C s3 is connected to router D s1 is listed in its network statement (on router A) under process 1 s2 and s3 are listed under process 2. Usually when you have multiple processes its for a reason, your intent is to somehow segregate your network. Lets say Routers B and C are also running process 2 If you were to accidentally hook router A s1 to the router B or C connection you would then effectively mix the routes from the 2 processes. Advertisements pay no attention to the process number. All they care about is if you're a neighbor and your password is correct (and your timer values are the same). hope that helps Tom At 10:48 AM 6/8/00 -0500, McMasters, Eric wrote: Okay I have been looking for this answer and I still can't find it, so I am bringing my question to all of the OSPF guru's that reside on this list. Here is what I want to know. I know that you can run multiple routing processes on a single router, i.e. router ospf 1 and router ospf 2 Now will the networks that are configured under the each of these processes know about networks in the other process, without redistributing? Will they maintain separate routing tables? If so, will all the routes be displayed when issuing the "show ip route" command? I just want to know if the networks that are configured under each process will be logically separated on the router, or will they share the same routing table?

Re: Access-lists
The reply coming back will be on a random numbered port greater than 1023, if you open up all UDP ports greater than 1023 then the response will be allowed back in. Also you probably don't need to permit TCP domain. ALl DNS lookups happen using UDP port 53. DNS zone transfers (which only need to happen between primary and secondary servers) are the only machines which need TCP port 53. So if you permit UDP port 53 out and UDP greater than 1023 back in it should work fine. If you want to make your filters a bit beefier you could permit only packets which have a destination port of UDP 1023 and a source port of UDP 53 (since the response will be coming from a DNS server it will be on UDP port 53).
