I think it's possible although I've never read anywhere that you could.  On
a Nortel Passport 8100/8600 you can.

Mask in L3 Packet [7:29182]

2001-12-14 Thread VoIP Guy

This may sound like a dumb quesion, but if I send a packet to a different
host, where is the subnet mask?  Where does a host get the subnet mask info
to do an AND operation?

what does an ethernet keepalive packet look like?  Who does a router send
one to (especially if connected to a switch).  Is it looking for voltage or

I had the same issue with FRF.12.  Sounds good in theory and on papaer, but
in the real world, it never works.  FRF 11 Annex C is OK (VoFR) and PPP
multilinking is OK, but FRF.12 is no good.

Remind me to thank Cisco for drinking the FRF.12 kool-aid.

Re: To IP telephony experts: Who's the best? [7:28714]

2001-12-10 Thread VoIP Guy

Price wise, depends on the size of the job.  For a small company, Cisco is
WAY too expensive when you compare an AVVID solution to a small PBX.  For
good price for a small company go with a 3COM NBX.  But with the 7750 being
re-released, the 7750 may be getting more cost competative.  I think it's
going to be released for 12K, but that's an empty system (no WAN ports,
switches, etc.) and those add up fast.  It's too hard to justify a 225%
increase in price just to say you have a VoIP system.  Once you get into
Unity and unified messaging, the price skyrockets.

Once you get to a big job (1000's of users) the AVVID solution quickly
surpasses the big PBX's in terms of cost.

Performance wise, Cisco is the most flexable in terms of scalability, and
options.  Nortel is the worst.  Their BCM they have is a pice of junk.  I
have limited info on Alcatel's stuff, and Lucent's (if they're even still in
the enterprise market as we speak).

I was told that there are 7 layers in the OSI model (from a guy who worked

layers at the time, and OSI had 6.  They added the session-layer to make it

Re: 2 priority queues [7:28227]

2001-12-06 Thread VoIP Guy

You are correct that it creates only 1 PQ.

As for the second point, you bring up a good scenario where the PQ gets
filled up and the rest of the high priority traffic gets dropped.  I never
thought about it before, and I guess it just falls into a design category.
Either plan for worst case scenario and always guarantee there will be
enough bandwidth for that high priority traffic or maybe RSVP or H.323
Gatekeeper may be a better option, as either will "ask" is bandwidth is
avail, and if not, (in the case of voice) send it off net to the PSTN.

Re: 2 priority queues [7:28227]

2001-12-06 Thread VoIP Guy

I like to learn, so forgive me if I am beating this subject, but in order
for me to become a CCIE, I need to know everything.  I've been reading up on
the real story on two priority queues, been asking a couple of CCIE's and
been on CCO.  Just as I suspected, there is only 1 PQ in LLQ, or any queuing
method for that matter.  If you enter two (or more) different classes to
have strict priority, the all enter the same priority queue.  To quote from
Cisco:

"...The Low Latency Queueing feature provides strict priority queueing for
CBWFQ, reducing jitter in voice conversations. Configured by the priority
command, Low Latency Queueing enables use of a single, strict priority queue
within CBWFQ at the class level, allowing you to direct traffic belonging to
a class to the CBWFQ strict priority queue. To enqueue class traffic to the
strict priority queue, you configure the priority command for the class
after you specify the named class within a policy map. (Classes to which the
priority command is applied are considered priority classes.) Within a
policy map, you can give one or more classes priority status. When multiple
classes within a single policy map are configured as priority classes, all
traffic from these classes is enqueued to the same, single, strict priority
queue"

Here is the link for surther study.

I am still researching Mike's claim that states that fast-switching bypasses
the counters for the queue.  I will set up an experiment later on today in

queues, but maybe Mike's right in stating that the counters aren't used.
I'll let you know.

2 priority queues [7:28227]

2001-12-05 Thread VoIP Guy

Has anyone ever seen 2 priority queue's in LLQ?  What would be the reason
and how would those 2 get serviced?  Round Robin?  FIFO?  It does work
beucasue I just saw it on a config and tried it myself, but can't figure out
why they did it.

Re: Cisco CallManager (CM) Redundancy [7:28043]

2001-12-04 Thread VoIP Guy

Not a valid setup at all.  Centralized CallManagers can't fall over to a
remote CallManager.  In fact, a remote CM can't even be clustered over the
WAN (unless it's faster than 10MB link).  For remote site fail over, you
need SRST off of a router to PSTN.  It's a temp solution until you get the
WAN link or CallManager back up.

For PSTN fallback in CallManager you need to create 2 route lists in CM.
First choice would be WAN. 2nd choice would be PSTN.  Add both to a route
group.

Re: CBAC question [7:27751]

2001-12-03 Thread VoIP Guy

Remember this rule:

For CBAC to work (let something back in), it has to have an access-list
bocking it.

Let me explain.  CBAC is a tool the monitors communications over an
interface and protects against session hijacking, and other hacking
exploits.  It's also a tool thet lets something pass through only if it
started on the other side.  So if you have a client inside that initiates a
web page download, (port 80), CBAC will only let the page back in if it flow
was initiated from iside the network first.  It's a glorified access-list
with the "established" keyword.  You put CBAC on in interface in THE
DIRECTON YOU WISH TO START THE COMMUNICATION.  This starts the monitoring
session of that flow.  Then in order for the packet to come back in via
CBAC, it needs an access list to first stop it.

Here's a correct implementation of CBAC.  Notice that access-list 100 blocks
everything in the world but ping replies from comming back in.  Without
CBAC, nothing would come back in, but with CBAC on, if the communication
started on the inside, the comminication will come back in. This is why you
need an extended access-list for the external interface, because what if you
just wanted to monitor POP3 mail sessions, you would need an extended list
that can block 110.  A standard list will not block 110.

Re: VPN + 1720 [7:27841]

2001-11-30 Thread VoIP Guy

Here's one I did a few months ago.  The only thing I wasn't comfortable with
was the access list that has to let the internal IPSec addresses back in,
but I couldn't do it any other way.  Does anyone have a better idea?  Maybe
it's the only way it can be done.

Re: Subnetting [7:27808]

If you really got a class B, it would be 255.255.0.0, where you could just
create 254 Class C networks.

If you got a class C network, you can't do it without more VLANs.

Re: ISDN Q.921 and Q.931 [7:27568]

2001-11-29 Thread VoIP Guy

I was wrong.

I looked it up last night and there is a seq. number in the control field of
LAPB, HDLC, and LABD.  Both, the sending and receiving stations must keep
the same seq. numbers when transmitting, but I cannot find anything on
retransmission at that layer.  But I asked an old IBM guy I used to work
with and he said that SDLC and all the related layer two protocols do
require retrans when bad packets are found or missing.  So I would assume
that LAPD layer two is reliable.  And as everyone else said, the SS7
signalling (Q.931) is just control and status messages over D channel.

And B channel is a different retrans technique, based upon the higher layer
protocols it carries.  If an ISDN frame gets corrupt, both channels will be
retransmitted, but by differnt methods.  So ISDN D channel is inherently
reliable at layer two and B channel is reliable only if that higher layer
protocol is.

Re: ISDN Q.921 and Q.931 [7:27568]

2001-11-28 Thread VoIP Guy

q.921 is D channel, but is like a layer two protocol in that it just cares
about addressing on the wire beteen the equip and the swich.

q.931 is only run on D channel.  Q.931 is part of Q.SIG, the telecom
standard signalling.  This is LAPD.

If an ISDN packet is lost in the end-user context, corrupted, or whatever, I
would think a higher level protocol would request retans if it was reliable
(TCP) and not ISDN.  Theres not even a seq number in q.931, so I would't
think it would know it was missing a frame.

To be honest, it just sucks right now economy wise.  No big deal.  The
business world is, as we all know, cyclical, and it will eventually come
back up.  We didn't slide into this overnight, and we won't come out
overnight either.

Now is the time to study, get certs, go back to school and prop yourself up
for the next boom.  Everyone is hurting, even Cisco themselves.  People are
still getting laid off there as we speak.

As for the CCIE's wishing they never did it, well they need a reality check.
Of course the market will be diluted with CCIE eventually, but it's not yet.
And they need to ask themselves, are they better of with their CCIE then
without?  Of course they are.

EtherChannel XOR on 2900 and server - source or destination? [7:27348]

2001-11-26 Thread VoIP Guy

Which is better when configuring EtherChannel on a Cat 2900 and a server on
the other end with two NIC's with Compaq's Teaming software for destination
for the XOR, source or destination?  Why?

I can't decide which direction would benefit more.

Re: ISDN BR0: Error: Unexpected Disconnect_Ack - calli [7:27340]

2001-11-26 Thread VoIP Guy

Do a debug ISDN events, debug q921, debug q931 and see if all three steps
work.  If so, I'd check dialer-maps, ppp settings and authentication and ip
addresses.

TO me, I'd suspect the ISDN switch.  The Debug isdn event should show when
the switch drops you and why it did.

Re: Which path to take? [7:26918]

2001-11-20 Thread VoIP Guy

I'd say over the long run, both are lucrative aspects of networking, but I
feel that VoIP may be a better choice.  First off, Cisco has staked it's
future growth on the next-gen converged networks of voice, video, etc.  The
plain old data market is not completely saturated, but it's getting there.
If voice dosen't work out, they wont be able to grow as rapidly as they have
in the past (unless optical takes off again).  So what's good for the goose
is surely good for the gander.  Voice has a huge growth potential, and there
are numerous studies showing the market growing by leaps and bounds over the
next 3 -5 years.  I'm not saying that plain data isn't a big
business, cause it is, but it's not growing by leaps and bounds like it used
to.

Secondly, with voice such a new skill, the playing field is completely
leveled, even against most CCIE's.  I attend many classes at Cisco, and hang
there in the labs once a week, and I've seen plenty of SE's and CCIE's just
clueless (even TAC) about voice.  And even if they're not clueless, they
have been studying just as long as everyone else.  So in terms of skills,
you have a shot to be one of the leading people.  The number of CCIE's is
getting bigger all the time, and there will be a point where they aren't as
valuable.  Face it, when they were super-valuable, it was because networking
was such an in demand skill, just as voice will be.  It's all supply and
demand.   I'm not saying CCIE's aren't still valuable, but
their worth is declining. 
(On a side note, new technologies are pretty cool, and you get to meet the
cream of the crop working on it.  I got to meet Wendel Odom last week and
had the distinct pleasure of having him give a lecture on QOS (important
skill in new networks)!  Where else could you meet such distinguished
people?  Certainly not in a ICND class or even a CCIE bootccamp).

Also, last week at Cisco in MA, there was a pretty big showcase to all the
local business big wigs about the future of VoIP and AVVID, so the buzz is
out there and businesses are noticing.  Our sales people are swamped with
VoIP related stuff.  One guy told me on of his contacts who own's a business
was golfing with a buddy when they began talking about VoIP.  The business
guy didn't even know what VoIP was or what it did, but he had to have it he
was saying.

I feel that converged data networks are the future, and will be a ubiquitous
as e-mail is today.  Security is good also, but it's hard to educate people
that they need a secure network, so it's harder to get a sale in for that
stuff.  But what do I know, I'm not biased or anything

Re: Tcp window size question [7:26861]

2001-11-20 Thread VoIP Guy

You are correct in that the tcp window size sets the freq. of acks.  The
receiver decides the window size based on a "credit system" based on how
well it received your packets in the past.  Unfortunately, it's an unfair
system since you have no control of how the packets do across the network,
especially in the harsh world of WRED, Frame Relay switch DE's, and other
outside influences.

As for why you are getting on ack every two packets without it ever
increasing is beyond me.  It should go 2, 4, 8, 16, etc..

The wan provider maps the DLCI to the IP of the FR switch at the opposite
end through special tables..  Furthermore, the Frame Relay header is stipped
off when entering the cloud and travels around via regualr IP or ATM, etc.
The FR header is then put back on once it reached the opposite FR switch.

Also depends what you are doing on router.  If you are running at 50% now,
and want to do CBAC and VPN, then don't use that router.  But Cisco says as
a general rule 75% (same as WAN links, so it's a little easier to remember).

Re: Ip Telephony question [7:26344]

I took the class with the guy who wrote the test.  Basically it covers
everything that was listed in class.  Different designs, the locaton of the
menu's on the web page, the features of the phones, etc.

To be honest, it the easiest test at Sylvan.  You should be more worried
about the certification.net test's for EVODD and PBX fundamentals.

Re: CBWFQ (Class-Based Weighted Fair Queing) Question [7:26197]

2001-11-14 Thread VoIP Guy

TO sum it up, it guarantees and limits bandwidth.  The PQ gets services over
all the other queues (proably voice traffic) and then the CBQ gets serviced
according to the bandwidth you configure for each class.  So when you config
the bandwidth you could consider is guaranteing what you put down or
reserved.  It's all semantics.
The rest if WFQ'd and is a free for all in that queue, especially if the
traffic is not classified, it essentialy becomes round robin in that queue.

The back-up occours when you come from a gig port down to a 100 MB port.  By
nature there will be a back up at the queue of the 100 MB port because it
can't move the packets as fast as the 1000MB port.

Re: Private phone numbering [7:26021]

2001-11-14 Thread VoIP Guy

It can.  At home it definitly does.  Once you get a PBX or KSU, you havemore
control over the exstensions.  If you order one number for the main site and
you have extensions that you have to dial to get to the individual phones
from the automated attendant, then you can make those extensions what ever
you want.  And if you have DID, the Telco may give you a block of numbers,
say 1000-1099, you can either use thos as your extension such as (nnn)
nnn-1000 or you can map those into your internal extensions.  So a customer
outside may call you at (nnn) nnn-1000, but your internal co-workers can get
to you by dialing your extension number which may be x3546.  You would map
the DID number to the extension on the PBX, like you do in NAT.

You assign bandwidth % to each class, with the default percentage at 75%
(the other 25 % is presumably used for overhead).  You can change this witht
the max-reserved-bandwidth (%) command.

DID is the "public address" of voice, but you may still need to map over DID
numbers to your internal extensions. Otherwise you need an auto-attendant
that asks you to enter the extension of the person you are trying to reach,
which could be considered the NAT of voice, since you need a box to route
your call to the proper person.

Re: Dial Plans [7:26027]

2001-11-13 Thread VoIP Guy

Depends on who is doing the routing.  A PBX is capable of doing all it's own
dial-plans, or you can give the call-routing decision making to a cisco
router and have it do it, which also makes it way more configurable.  You
really don't even need a router to tie two PBX's together if you want, just
use E&M and some Adtrans.

The Intergrating Voice and Data networks by Cisco Press gives a pretty
comprehensive run down on the pro's and cons of router handling dial plans
vs PBX doing dial plans..

Re: CAT 5 cables - off topic [7:26081]

2001-11-13 Thread VoIP Guy

This is the forum for asking wiring questions.  Any CCIE worth his/her salt
will know the physical layer of networking.

Now for your question, that will be fine for 10/100.  But don't skimp out on
price and just get the 1,2,3,6 wires.  I'd get all 8 pairs in the wiring
because GigE uses all the pairs, and it's almost nothing in price difference
once you are paying someone to do the wiring.   Labor is always the most
expensive.   Plus it may be Cat 6 compatable when it gets standardized in a
few months.

Also, IP phones getting their power from a power-patch panel need the other
pairs for power, if you ever go VoIP Cisco style.

A straight T1 clear channel line can get expensive depending on the
distance, plus that makes it an OPX (off premise exteansion) line.  You
should use E&M for the tie line between two routers, then some sort of WAN
circuit to bring the two together.  You can do anything such as FXS to FXO,
etc,. but the proper voice way to do it is E&M.  You could do PRI (voice
pri, not ISDN) to carry the digits to the other PBX, clear channel, VoIP,
VoFR (then you bring in a router of some sort to CODEC and encap the voice).

Basically you need a pyhsical pipe to carry the voice between two

Re: Etherchannel between 5509 and Intel Pro/100 NIC [7:25746]

2001-11-10 Thread VoIP Guy

PAgP for EtherChannel is for two Cisco devices that can autonegegotiate
EtherChannel.  Setting EtherChannel to desirable or any other negotiable
state will never form a channel because the two NICs don't understand PAgP.
Keep it on "on" and I think you may need some sort of Channeling software
for the NICs as well to utilize Etherchannel.  But this I could be wrong on,
so if I am please correct me.

Just time-sensitive applications like voice, video, etc.  It may help with
the telnet traffic though.

Re: Prioritizing Protocols???? [7:24959]

2001-11-02 Thread VoIP Guy

CB-WFQ (class-based WFQ) isn't enabled by default.  It is started with the
class-map (name), access-lists and policy-map (name) commands.  It combines
the best practicesof WFQ, WRED and proiority/custom queuing.  It is highly
customizable.  You just create different policy-map's for the different
types of traffic (RED data during congestion but not voice, give RTP from
site A to site B priority, etc)

If the original poster is just trying to pritorize only telnet traffic above
all alse, there is absolutly no configuraton needed, cause WFQ is default
below E1 speeds and telnet is by default already prioritized above all other
traffic conversations.

I was thinking the poster had other types of traffic like FTP, http, SMB
traffic, etc., which is why the interleaving comes into play, (especially
the FTP traffic).  I can almost guess that Telnet traffic alone wouldn't
starve any traffic out (around 23 bytes/packet or something like that) and
interleaving it wouldn't touch it at all, since it's below the 80 bytes that
interleaving would chop at on a 64k link.

Furthermore, if the link is constantly backed up, I'd upgrade bandwidth, as
queuing is only supposed to be used when there is intermittent congestion.

If I could type 90 words a minute, I'd write a book too :)

Re: Prioritizing Protocols???? [7:24959]

2001-11-02 Thread VoIP Guy

I would use CB-WFQ, over all the others because of the control you can
create.

Protrity queuing will "starve" out the other protocols if one is given
priority over the others and it is busy.

Frame-relay Fragmentation (FRF.12) is an interleave and traffic shaping
comand, and as such will minimize seialization, but not prioritize.  I would
use it, but in concert with WFQ.

Re: is it really bad market for ccie ? [7:24297]

It certainly dosen't hurt to get a CCIE.  The world is never going to throw
itself at you, so go out and learn as much as you can and get your CCIE.  If
you can't get a job with a CCIE, you have other problems.  I am just a CCNP
and I can get a job.
