Re: Serial Line problems [7:31426]

2002-01-09 Thread Steven A. Ridder

Usually if it completely fails, it's faulty telco equip.  Their stuff can
freak out (if it's faulty) if it see's all ones (has to do with the 12.5%
rule in B8ZS), all zero's (same principal) 4040 is a test pattern the telco
sends out.  ABCD is another test pattern.

The fact that it works better messes me up!   I still say it's a clocking
issue, very dirty, old lines to CO (In Boston's downtown financial district,
there's a CO only 1/2 mile from most of the tall buildings, but the wiring
underground is horrible.  I hate getting calls out to there, especially on
rainy days.) or faulty equip on your side.

I didn't see the output of the int and service mod.  You got major timing
issues with the clock on the line.  That's your problem.   Have them check
it and make sure you have the correct number of channels.  Is it a Full T?

Also try swapping out the Wic t1, could be a bad piece of hardware.  But you
have timing issues.

You need to config the CSU/DSU or service-mod to utilize the correct number
of channels on the port, regardless of CIR.  ELMI or traffic-shaping is used
to shape CIR speed.

SO if you orderd a full T1, but only had a 64K circuit (I hope you are using
the other channels for voice or something) you would need to configure the
CSU/DSU or service-mod to use all 24 channels.

You can always go to Cisco and use thier racks for free.  If I need a few
days on a big router or ATM, I use their stuff.  (I could never justify
purchasing all the equipment some people have -72xx routers, Cat 6500
switches, Wireless AP's, etc..)  You just need to have your CCIE written
passed.  Call your account manager - he'll help you out.  Plus, they have
more inside info on all differnt things related to Cisco in case you need
their help, or just want to know what on the road-map.

Another cool thing we have at my company is an actual telephone switch (it's
small though because it was designed for classroom training).  It simulates
T1 lines, ISDN, etc.  Look for one of those.  It beats crossover cables.

Re: Update: BECN vs TCP congesttion control [7:31219]

2002-01-08 Thread Steven A. Ridder

So I guess frame-relay assumes a smart network/dumb host type situation?

The only other thing I saw was Fred's statement

"...None of these companies had much IP experience at the time, and it was
mostly X.25-experienced people working on it.  So the congestion issues
needed to be brought out.  I was working for a company that sold
connectionless networks, and we KNEW about congestion and the possibilities
of congestion collapse.  (Firsthand experience with congestion collapse in
the eary '80s was a very good learning experience.)..."

What does he mean when he speaks about "congestion collapse"?  Was this the
case in a "dumb" network where too many calls would just bring it down?  Did
this bring up the need to create fecn/becn as a sort of next-generation type
thing to correct the problems they may have experienced in previous type
networks?

Was there a parallel, but opposite school of thought in the TCP/IP networks
(I guess the Internet and ARPANET) of a smart host/dumb network where the
hosts and rotuters would handle congestion with TCP and ICMP source quench
messages and the such?  If I can assume that there were two schools of
thought, can I also assume that frame-relay with it's smart network/dumb
host model and tcp/ip's smart host, peer-to-peer network were never meant to
merge?

Also, what effect does becn/fecn (if implemented) have on TCP/IP's
windowing?  Any?  Should the two never be used together, or can they
co-exist peacefully if implemented right?

Sorry to ask all these questions, but this is like a history lesson to me
(IP was RFC'd in 1981, so I was 3 years old) and I learn best if I can get a
grasp on not only how things are done, but why.

Update: BECN vs TCP congesttion control [7:31219]

2002-01-08 Thread Steven A. Ridder

I have been searching as to the purpose of these FECN and BECN bits, and I
found this in an old newsgroup from 1994 from a guy who wrote part of Frame
Relay standards.  Looks like Howard and Pricilla were right in that IP
wasn't a concern, as IBM had SDLC and ATT & BellCore had x.25 and other
netowrks.  Looks like x.25 had congestion issues cause of no layer 4?  Am I
right?

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Fred R. Goldstein)
Newsgroups: comp.dcom.frame-relay
Subject: Re: Use of FECN/BECN for congestion management.
Date: 16 Nov 1994 16:15:56 GMT
Organization: Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc.
Lines: 86
Message-ID: 
References:  
 
NNTP-Posting-Host: bbn.com


I was part of the Frame Relay Congestion Control battle/brou-ha-ha, or
whatever you prefer to call it, from around 1985 to the time the ANSI
standards were published in 1991.  So I _can_ give some historical
background to the motivations behind BECN and FECN.  I also wrote much of
the text for FECN.

When Frame Relay was "conceived", there was little attention paid to
congestion issues.  Frame Relay became "the standard" because AT&T was
pushing HARD for a "New Packet Mode Bearer Service" (NPMBS) which would
use Layer 2 multiplexing. This was invented by AT&T as "DMI Mode 3" which
used full LAPD plus X.25
PLP with a single layer 3 channel in each L2 VC.  In spring, 1986, AT&T,
IBM and Bellcore agreed to work on Frame Relay and advance it towards ANS
status via ANSI T1D1 (later became T1S1).

None of these companies had much IP experience at the time, and it was
mostly X.25-experienced people working on it.  So the congestion issues
needed to be brought out.  I was working for a company that sold
connectionless networks, and we KNEW about congestion and the
possibilities of congestion collapse.  (Firsthand experience with
congestion collapse in the eary '80s was a very good learning
experience.)  BTW, my main authority on this topic was Raj Jain, who
invented slow-start (named "CUTE", "congestion control using timouts in
the end-to-end layer") before Van did, and is credited in a footnote in
Van's aticle.

Since modern connectionless-network-layer-based networks use the transport
layer for flow control, and have RECEIVER-based windows, we figured it was
best to the the RECEIVER that the network was congested, because it could
reduce its window size.  We were still in the era when we expected OSI to
catch on, and
the North American OSI Implementors' Agreement for CLNP defined exactly
how to use the Congestion Encountered bit in the CLNP header to
dynamically adjust the windows size in TP4.  Semantically, TP4 is a lot
like TCP, and CLNP is a lot like IP, but IP lacks the CE bit.  :-(
Therefore I proposed the FECN bit.  This made the FR header "address"
field look different from LAPD, because we had to steal a bit (LAPD has 13
bits of address.)  The technical name for this is Explicit Binary
Feedback.

IBM, on the other hand, had implemented a congestion control strategy for
SNA using SDLC.  In SDLC, the only window is in the SENDER.  So they had
no use for FECN, an asked for a BECN bit.  We argued about it; having both
bits was not widely supported at first because it would have shrunk the
DLCI by another bit! Making it a per-connection option (the bit is FECN
_or_ BECN) was also not popular.  Eventually (by 1989) consensus moved
towards having both bits.

The DE bit was added because the networks needed a way to police the whole
shebang.  Since this was a telco service and telco like to sell rate-based
services, they wanted a way to carry "excessive" (exceeds the CIR leaky
bucket but not the EIR leaky bucket) traffic, but at lowered priority.  DE
does this quite nicely.  Thus we have three bits stolen from the DLCI.

The whole rate-based thing was written by T1S1.1 (Services) into
T1.610-Addendum, while the FECN and BECH were written by T1S1.2
(Protocols) into T1.618 (Core Aspects of LAPF).  The two mechanisms are
unrelated!

AT&T, btw, was concerned about asymmetrical packet voice traffic, and they
put in the Consolidated Link Layer Management message (CLLM), which is in
effect a complex Frame Relay Source Quench.  This isn't widely used.

So in summary, the FECN bit was aimed at feeding the Layer 3 "Congestion
Encountered" bit, which in turn was to shrink the L4 window (preferably
before losing frames, and thus providing a smoother flow).  The BECH bit
was aimed at reducing the HDLC/SDLC window.  CIR/EIR was aimed at
protecting the network against users who didn't pace their traffic; in
practice, it causes strategic discards which trigger VJ slow-start, and
that forms an "implicit" feedback mechanism.  The semantics of FECN and
BECN (how you should react; how it is set) are also INDEPENDENT of one
another; they were invented separately and have different notions of
congestion.  And because they're all option

CCIE counters, r they going up? [7:31318]

2002-01-08 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

Someone on the list (I think it was Chuck) used to try and keep track of how
many new IE numbers they saw each week. I was wondering, with the new lab,

When's IPv6 gonna hit the mainstream?   Or the backbone?  Of all the stuff I
ever read on it, the main reason it came into play was because of the
impending depletion of public addresses.  Well with NAT, firewall and other
proxy services handiling a lot of requests onto the public internet, the
depletion has been put out a few years (actually, does anyone have any good
like, studies pointing out when this is supposed to happen now?).  So what
else is going to drive the adoption of IPv6?

I understand that FR is multi-protocol, but I feel confident in saying that
most traffic is IP based.

With that out of the way, historically, why did the writers of frame-relay
include BECN as a method of congestion control when 1, it isn't end-to-end
as TCP is, and therefore not as "good" as TCP, and 2, not nearly as robust
and complex as TCP's tried and true methods of congestion control.

Is there another reason that I don't understand.

Re: How to block MSN, and others. [7:31057]

2002-01-06 Thread Steven A. Ridder

IM isn't anywhere near as bandwidth intensive as video, audio, etc.  And I
can understand blocking video and streaming audio.  But if you communicate
via e-mail or IM, they can both be for business purposes.  I have seen plany
of non-business related e-mails in my time, just as I'm sure you all have.
That dosen't mean we should all block e-mail.  IM has a stigma as a toy for
teens on AOL, and it just isn't that way anymore.  It does have it's place.

Re: popularity of the CID test [7:31081]

2002-01-06 Thread Steven A. Ridder

It was the only test I ever failed.  If you ask me, there's not much market
demand for CCDP's (which makes the test a low priority), and for the amount
you have to study to pass the test, it's not worth it.  It's good to learn
though, because it covers a lot of broad topics, from SNA to ATM LANE,
AppleTalk, etc.

Have fun at it.  Study the BPX and IGX.

My Bad.  The RSA Certificate was for the Passport account.  MSN Messenger
uses an MD5 hash.  Still more secure than most e-mail accounts.

SNMP, Dynamic Wan IP's, DSL, Cable [7:30999]

2002-01-04 Thread CAMPBELL, GREGG A (AIT)

Hello all,

I have read this list for awhile now and realize how similar most of our
dilemmas are.  My strengths are many but there are many brighter than I and
therefore I have not had the opportunity to answer any questions ahead of
the correct answer being posted.  Therefore I pose this question to the
entire group in hopes that some are strong in my weakness.  SNMP and
management as a whole are not things I have ever dealt with beyond academia.


So first is there a MIB that defines the IP address of an interface?

Can I send a Trap if the IP address of an interface changes?

Is there a service living on the "big I" that will accept such a trap and
record the change?

Recall that this *IS* primarily concerned with CISCO equipment in my world.

I know there are many utilities that will do these sorts of things with PC's
and/or Servers behind the dynamic IP but what if I am interested in only
having the router online all the time?  And behind the router lives
intelligent power control devices (read X10 enabled Web server.etc etc.)
that can power up my server/rack/anything else.  I want to know at all times
through a URL that I can reach my router but NOT have to pay the cost of
static IP.  Thanks for your help.

What about IP or SNMP to X10 translation on a Cisco device?  I see they
(Cisco) recently (?) released analog relay control for alarm and monitoring.
Any body at the big C reading this that might want to go down the protocol
translation road to profit?  This might be a great topic for us to venture
down together.


G.

RE: Carrier Transitions : Any Comments [7:30829]

2002-01-03 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

Ole,

It is not unheard of for a cable between the CSU and the demarc (SJ) to
start flaking out. You said that "you did that", meaning what? Did you
replace the cable and reset the WIC or did you do one and not the other?
I've had a simple reseat of the cable into the back of the SJ fix problems
for me before. I would have done one first and then tried the other rather
than taking a shotgun approach because the shotgun method doesn't allow you
to discover exactly what the problem was. What about your service-module?
(show service-module XX) Was it reporting any problems? Most specifically
did it register any bipolar violations? It's been my experience that bipolar
violations indicate a local copper problem which would have pointed more to
the cable than to the WIC. You could still have a SJ problem. When looping
the SJ, they cannot test through the port to which you are connecting.
(Unless you provide a loopback plug for them to test to). Further, sometimes
SJs (depending on vendor) have a switch or software option for AMI or B8ZS.
If there is a switch and if your service is suppose to be using B8ZS, then
the SJ should be set for B8ZS. Some vendors' SJs can get flakey and
alternate between AMI and B8ZS, causing you problems. Anytime I dispatch a
LEC technician I request that they check that option and set it accordingly,
rather than leaving it set to AUTO detect. (there's that "auto detect" stuff
again... :)

I'm not a big fan of integrated CSUs. I miss the days of having a standalone
CSU and then my router behind it. We would have 2 POTS lines, 1 for the CSU
and 1 for the router. We were able to pinpoint our problems and get
resolution much faster. Always check what your CSU has to say about a line
condition. You apt to get more detail from it rather than from a simple
interface command output. Most CSUs record performance information in
increments of 15 minute periods (96 blocks) for a 24 hour period. You can
then see nearly exactly what was occurring over the past day and when it
occurred. 

HTH,
Chris

Subject: Carrier Transitions : Any Comments [7:30829]


My networking skills are apparently being tested these days, because the
frame relay circuit went down to one of my branch offices.

I got someone at the local office to telnet into the router, which was
down/down, and the LMI was down/down, and there were just under 10 carrier
transitions in the last 24 hours.

I had them powercycle the router without any luck.

I concluded that my provider was most likely the cause of the problem, and
that it was at the branch office circuit, since my router here was talking
fine with the other two remote offices, and my LMI was up/up.

My provider told me that the circuit was bouncing, or in other words, it had
been going down and back up several times since yesterday evening.

After several hours, they did an out of service test, where they told me
that it had tested dirty to the CSU but clean to the SmartJack, so they were
going to put it on hold until I had replaced the WAN cable and reseated the
WIC-1DSU-T1 card in the 1720 router.

I went out to the branch office and did that, and the PVC has after I
powered it on been up for about an hour now.

My question now is:

Is this (A) a normal thing that you suddenly have to reseat the WIC and/or
replace the WAN cable, and that it can cause carrier transitions, or is this
more likely (B) my provider that has found and corrected the error on their
site, but now is trying to make it look like it was my equipment that was
faulty, or (C) 

Thanks for any comments to this,

Ole

Re: Excess collisions on Ethernet interface [7:30769]

2002-01-03 Thread Steven A. Ridder

Input errors is the sum of the errors, not an individual error in of itself.
If you have 93 runts, the input error is reported as 93.  If you had 93
runts and 1 giant, the nput errors would be 94.

How long is the cable between the router and switch.  I've seen tiny cords
cause this error.  I think the minimum length for ethernet is 3 meters.

i guess I got them mixed up.  Now I can't remember the tool that uses ICMP
redirects to do the same thing.  I thought the other one did the arp
spoofing.  I'll try and find it as it's more clever.

Re: Sniffing my broadband connection to my ISP ??? [7:30689]

2002-01-02 Thread Steven A. Ridder

Dsniff uses icmp default gateway redirects (the ICMP message that tells
hosts that a differnt router has a better path to the destination network).
This will automatically make the user's PC redirect all traffic to your PC
dynamically (the client never knows about it), because he thinks you are a
router and that you'd be a better default gateway.  You just have to have a
multihomed PC because you still need to forward the traffic to the
destination, otherwise you'll get caught.

It's a pretty good hacking tool and has been ported from *nix to Windows for
years.  Makes switches just like hubs again.  Use this with L0phtCrack and
you can get NT PW's, etc..

As everyone else has said, this is normal for a shared access netowrk.  Look
for routing protocol updates and other things as well .  On ATT's
cable-modem network you can see the ospf hello updates, who the DR and BDR
is and other things.  It can be fun.  Try dsniff or some other program and
you can see all the traffic on that network  :)  Be careful though because
you will probably get slammed and don't forget to reroute the traffic back
out or else someone will know something is wrong.

Re: ccna exam info [7:30657]

2002-01-02 Thread Steven A. Ridder

Try Wendel Odom's CCNA Exam Certification Guide.  Please try to config a
router a few times if you haven't yet before you take the CCNA.  It will
make your knowledge more concrete.

For practice tests, try Boson.com, examcram.com, etc.   Cisco even has some
tests that have the real questions on them (they look real to me).

I'm not afraid to show someone how to cheat on a test, as I belive the net
is open and exists to share information, for good or bad, and even if you
saw all the tasks on a CCIE lab, you're not going to pass without knowing
all your stuff.

There used to be braindumps on http://leuthard.ch/mcse/640-407.shtml but
they were 3 years old by now.  I beleive you can try the discussion boards
on cramsession.com for more braindumps on all the test up to the CCIE lab.
I have even seen CCIE lab braindumps from as recently as Dec. 28, 2001.

Someone at Cisco was just telling me about a guy who came in from Korea to
take the CCIE lab and during lunch, he called TAC on one of the problems.
The TAC tech recognized the problem as a lab problem from his CCIE test,
called down to the lab instructors to see if that person was taking the lab,
and sure enough he was.  He was busted and sent back home.  I don't agree
with what he did, but I find it amusing none the less.

Is there any standardization for autonegotiation like 802.x or something.  I
have never heard of anything like it, and maybe that's half the problem?

Re: Why use wildcard mask [7:30473]

How is wildcard the natural method for hardware to match on?  I can't
conceptualize it.  I write it out in binary, and I can't figure out what
operation a processor would use to match on.

Re: Autosense this ... (add to your knowledgebase) [7:30446]

2001-12-30 Thread A. Dominick Marino

The Autosense feature should be taken with a grain of salt.  If you need a
specific connection to work, you should set the speed and duplex manually.

One of the first thing I became aware of many years ago is that most "auto"
features are spastic at best ON ANY EQUIPMENT.  Not just Cisco!I have
had strange problems when the equipment rebooted later on. If you set it
when you configure the interface you will save a lot of grief.  I also
recommend this action for client stations.

To eliminate problems specify in your Policy and Procedures manual  that
"Autosense" is not to be used.

RE: Autosense this ... (add to your knowledgebase) [7:30446]

2001-12-29 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

It's unfortunate that sometimes when things break, they don't perform in
expected ways. Rather it truly was an Autosense problem or not, who knows.
But it brings up a chance to talk about Autosense. I've had it bite me more
than once. I've had problems with Autosense that didn't show up until months
after installation. It doesn't matter if its Cisco to Cisco or Cisco to
another vendor, I've had to lock down ports at certain speeds and modes to
solve problems on several occasions. Just to pass along some experience, you
may always be better off hard setting your options. Nice persistence Mr.
Jensen, it's cool to stick with something until you can make it work.

Subject: Re: Autosense this ... (add to your knowledgebase) [7:30446]


An interesting read, particularly since I am reviewing Kennedy clark's cisco
Lan Switching book prior to reviewing Cat5K and Cat 3920 configuration.

I am somewhat surprised at both the phenomenon and the concludion. Spanning
tree blocks for particular reasons.

when you concluded that your configurations were identical at all offices,
does that mean that your port negotiations were set to auto everywhere else?
both on the routers and on the local switches? if so, I would expect to see
similar problems elsewhere.

is it possible that there was a duplicate mac someplace in another part of
the bridged network, one that was being picked up by STP and interpreted as
a loop? You mention changing macs of interfaces as part of your
experimentation. Are you certain that this process was not part of the
solution?

To be frank, I'm hard pressed to come up with a reason why the FE port on
the router would go into blocking. I can see that hapening on the serial
port for reasons that have been discussed on this group in the past. I can't
come up with a rationale as to why hard setting of speed and duplex would
make a difference. I suppose one MIGHT conclude that if the port is in full
duplex, the STP process MIGHT see a loop occuring over the two different
wire pairs. that's about the only wild rationale I can come up with. And
that one is really stretching the point / bug / whatever.

In any case, thanks for the good read.

when you are trying to study for the recertification test, but you have too
much work to do in your real job, are you "stuck in active"?

when you are taking the test, are you "open confirm"?

after you have completed the test, and have clicked the "complete" button,
but have not yet received your grade, is this "open sent"?

What defines an active CCIE?  The thing I don't get is you have to recertify
every two years, but the cert can expire after one if you are not "active".
What is active?  Do you have to answer e-mail surveys every month or

MPLS and Patents [7:30244]

2001-12-27 Thread Steven A. Ridder

I was reading on the IETF pages that IBM claims to have patented some or all
portions of the MPLS IETF standards.  How valid is their claim and could it
hold up?  I remember a few years ago that Lucent was trying to cash in on
ATM which BellLabs invented in the 80's.  That didn't seem to go nowhere?  I
can porbably guess that no one is a lawyer in this group, but I thought I'd
ask anyways.

Re: LAN sub-interface routing [7:30225]

2001-12-27 Thread Steven A. Ridder

In a secondary interface, you can have 1 interface with 2 addresses/subnets.
A subinterface is different in that you create multiple interfaces, as
opposed to the 1 in the secondary interface.  You do all the addressing by
creating sepreate logical interfaces.  These subinterfaces look like
seperate physical interfaces to the routing protocol.

RE: Parkhurst Ch. 8 first lab not working [7:30115]

2001-12-27 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

SUCCESS!!

I wanted to pass along a thanks to those of you that took the time to work
on this yesterday. Further, wanted you to know that I have successfully
configured it today. I was trying this yesterday on 2 2600s that were
running Version 12.2(2)XA. Today, I switched over to 2 2500s that are
running 12.0(16) and the lab works just fine. Seems as though I have
stumbled across an IOS bug. If I had to guess, it must be in relation to the
"non-exist-map" statement. Maybe I'll open a case with TAC. I went on to
complete several other Chapter 8 labs yesterday on those 2600s, so the code
isn't all bad when utilized for BGP. Someone mentioned that you can check
and see which code is currently being used for the lab. I'll have to search
CCO.

With any luck I'll finish my BGP studies by this weekend. I subject down,
and about a million to go. :)

All/Chuck

Wrapping up my BGP studies and using Parkhurst's BGP book to lab some stuff.
The first lab in Chapter 8 (advertise-map) is not working for me. The routes
advertise fine until I get to the step of shutting int loopback 0. rtrA
retains the secondary route but rtrB is not receiving that route. All of my
results follow the examples until this point. I've tried the lab several
times and my configs are correct. If anyone has had any luck with this lab
or if you could throw it together real quick, I'd appreciate it. It only
requires 2 routers and a fairly simple config.

My sanity may be at stake. t?t

RE: Multihoming load balancing BGP [7:30011]

2001-12-24 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

If I may suggestPlease pay particularly close attention to how you
address the devices that you intend to advertise. I often have customers who
purchase 2 T1s and want to acquire equal loads on both. The mistake is when
they advertise a www server that takes all of the traffic. Based on
source/destination cache, all traffic for that server comes across one link.

As Howard suggested, please take the time to draw this out. If you truly
want load sharing, redundancy, telco diversity, ISP/NSP diversity and
ISP/NSP POP diversity. It really is not as simple as buying multiple WAN
circuits. You can get as granular as making a request to get the telco DLRs
in an attempt to reduce possible single points of failure.

The first thing is defining exactly what you mean by load balancing 
and multihoming, the expected return, and the investment you are 
willing to make.  These are complex topics:  see 
http://www.ietf.org/draft-ietf-berkowitz-multireq-02.txt

Some things you will need to know, assuming you are talking about 
Internet connectivity, is how many external destinations will you 
have?  How many routable prefixes will you advertise?  Do you need to 
load share based on address or on traffic type?

RE: RRs and Confeds as they relate to IE studies [7:29968]

2001-12-24 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

I've read Doyle Vol II. Now I'm reading Caslow. I've flipped through
Halabi's book. He actually has a statement regarding RR vs. Confed.
According to Halabi, "Cisco recommends RRs to solve the full-mesh IBGP
issue." It would seem that RRs are easier to implement if you take into
account that only the RRs need to have their configuration altered. The
Clients of the RRs take the neighbor statement as nothing more than an IBGP
peer. 

One of the responders recommended Parkhurst's book. Yes I have it. But
haven't gotten to it yet. Since it's all config examples I am saving it for
a wrap up of my BGP studies. 

Could we make a list of pros/cons to each? Or what solution each
implementation offers?
RR = possibly less config, only RR is altered (in the neighbor statement)
RR = continues to offer loop prevention with use of Cluster_List and
Cluster_ID
RR = solves the need to have full-mesh IBGP
RR = Question, are RR solutions easy to troubleshoot/maintain?

Confeds = offers chance to create a backbone of backbones
Confeds = use of Private ASs
Confeds = allows implementation of an IGP between confeds for further policy
implementation
Confeds = adds complexity when considering route announcements and behavior
of EBGP as an IBGP
Confeds = Question, are Confed solutions easy to troubleshoot/maintain?

Any other thoughts?

Chris

Good question.  I don't claim to be an expert on BGP and will not comment on
the advantages and disadvantages of RR/Confeds in large/small environments.
I've only config'ed BGP once in a prod net.  Seems to me tho that there is
an important distinction between the two as they might pertain to the lab
test.  Both allow the use of weight and local preference (IBGP).  Confeds
allow the use of MED since the connections between the confeds is EBGP.  You
could also config multiple RR's (clusters) to allow the use of the MED
between the clusters but to me, confeds are easier.   I'm sure that there
are other reasons to use one or the other as they relate to the lab, but I
haven't run into it yet.

Maybe I'm wrong, but this is my take on RR's/confeds.  Would love to hear
comments to enlighten me.

RRs and Confeds as they relate to IE studies [7:29968]

2001-12-23 Thread Kane, Christopher A.

I'm currently tearing apart BGP as part of my IE studies. It's not too bad
since I come from a Network Service Provider background. But, I have run
into a conflict in regards to RRs vs. Confeds. I probably don't need to
straighten this out for the Written but when it comes to the lab I'd like to
know which route to go down. I have no idea how the lab poses it's topology
but if given the requirement to configure a simulated "large" network and
then having to choose whether to implement RRs or Confeds I wonder which one
Cisco prefers. I'm assuming that as part of the lab, the idea is to create
solutions that work and in doing so, solutions that are as simple as
possible and as short as possible.

I'd like to hear comments about the pros and cons of each option in regards
to how Cisco might prefer to see implementation. Meanwhile, I'm going to
review all available case studies on CCO.

Thanks,
Chris

Re: IOS firewall, NAT and smtp [7:29794]

2001-12-21 Thread Steven A. Ridder

FYI,

I plugged that exact config you sent into a 2621 with 12.2.6 IOS and it
worked fine.  I could telnet into an Exchange 2000 server via 25 and 110 on
the same LAN , and on the external lan usine the natted external IP addres.
It worked in both instances with 25 and 110 with CBAC on and with the access
list on.  So I don't think it's the config or the router.  I still can't
imagine you getting into 110 and not 25 anyways.  I can imaging not sending
mail with cbac on cause of the ESMTP commands on.

I'd look at the gateway in the server or something.  It was .2 on the
router.

Re: IOS firewall, NAT and smtp [7:29794]

2001-12-20 Thread Steven A. Ridder

For furture reference, once you enable CBAC on an interface, it MONITORS
traffic in both directions.

As for the SMTP thing, you remove ip inspect from the interface, and you can
telnet into the server at port 25?  Do I have that right?  You SURE you
removed it?  Cause if you can get in via 25 via telnet, you're in.  Only
CBAC would block it if you tried to login into the server, or some other
ESMTP command, and that's only if it was on.  You sure the server isn't bad?

The routing protocol info should be passed over a separate network like ss7

Re: Voice question Prefix [7:29681]

2001-12-20 Thread Steven A. Ridder

The prefix command is just a command that adds that number to the digits the
router will pass.  When you dial 9 right now, the router has no match for
that number and imediatley gives you that busy signal.  When you dial 8, it
shouldn't give you a busy signal until the interdigit timeout comes into
play, i believe 2 seconds.

I can't understand why you want the router to pause before you dial the rest
of the number.  What are you trying to do exactly?

A friend of mine was doing a PIX installation on the edge of a W2K
environment.  He was trying to allow NTP through the PIX but it would not
go.  He found that, since he was using an inbound ACL, the packet would
eventually reach the explicit deny.  According to his research, he had to
allow port 123 (NTP) in his ACL in able to allow it through the firewall,
even though it was established.  The question that has since been
unanswered:  Does NTP use UDP or TCP or both?  Any ideas?

Re: ISP and OSPF [7:29686]

2001-12-19 Thread Steven A. Ridder

I need an internet gateway router (via DSL connected to a Flowpoint) which
currently has a static route to the ISP to know when the netowrk goes down
and not just that flowpoint's local ethernet interface.  I need the gateway
router to dial up via isdn using dialer-watch.  I'd rathernot use BGP on
this router, and was wondering if it's even common practice to use OSPF to
the ISP.  They might say no.

Would creating a NSSA work?  Even a totally stub area might work?

Once Cisco releases DHRP, I'll be all set.

ISP and OSPF [7:29686]

Is it feasable to have an ISP set up an OSPF routing area with it's
customer, and have them inject a single external route into the area, where
one can distribute it as a default route?  If I create a NSSA, and they give
us a route to them, is that OK?  Any downfalls?

Re: Fame Relay FECN BECN [7:29675]

2001-12-19 Thread Steven A Ridder

When you burst, you get DE's.  It's not a problem.

FECN and BECN are status messages from frame switch telling router to slow
down (you can ignore them if you want).  DE's are just tags on the packet
that tell the frame switches that if it has to drop any packets due to
congestion, drop you DE packets first.  They may or may not have been
dropped, but they are the first to be eligible.

They will *try* and not drop your regular packets under your CIR cause
that's what they promised you under good conditions.  They also promised
other customers on that network a certain speed too.  So if there is only
356k of total speed (this is theory of cource) in your providers network,
and you both have CIR's of 128k and Be of 256k and other customers have
cir's of 128k and Be of 256k, obviously you all can't all burst at 256k if
there is only 384k to go around.  So the frame proveder would let all of
your 128k traffic through and the bursted 128k would have been tagged with
DE's, and if there was no bandwidth left, your DE's get dropped.
