The two tunnel endpoints are ME3400s.  



I believe GRE Tunnels are not supported on ME3400.  The packets hit the
CPU which is not very fast on that platform.

I know 100% for a fact this is the case on 3550s, and AFAIK it applies
to all lower-end fix-configuration switches.

Hello Dominic:

It looks like you only have 256 Mb of Packet Ram.  You should probably
upgrade to 512 MB. I run multiple full peers on 3 port GE cards with no
trouble, but they are all set to 512/512.


I can confirm that 256/256 works fine with 3 BGP Full-peers + public
peering for us.  The ONLY difference between our setups are that we are
running GRP-B/IOS gsr-k4p-mz.120-32.SY10.bin - Which is the final one
for the GRP (Time to upgrade!)


  FRU:  Linecard/Module: 3GE-GBIC-SC=
Processor Memory: MEM-GRP/LC-256=
Packet Memory: MEM-LC1-PKT-256=

#execute-on slot 2  show proc mem | i Free
= Line Card (Slot 2) =
Processor Pool Total:  189351488 Used:  119945424 Free:   69406064

One other thing I would look at is if you are running ANY sort of IPv6
on that card.  Engine 2 cards puke at any sort of ipv6 throughput - I
got that from this mailing list a few months or so ago..


Hope this helps..

Re: [c-nsp] RFC-1483 on Cisco 12000

I have a new-to-me Cisco 12008 which I am working on swapping in as a 
replacement for a 7206VXR which was moving way too much traffic 
GRP,, Engine 1 Giga-E, Engine 0 Quad ATM OC3.

Please be aware that ATM card is not longer supported and will not work
in a more recent IOS. It will also disable dcef on a full-BGP table,
which disables the card.

 Things have gone really well, and I'm quite happy so far...   But
ended 
up with one surprise.  Didn't realize the 12008 won't bridge a ATM PVC 
to a VLAN (or any ethernet for that matter)... 

Basically we have a few things which we extend an 802.1q vlan across a 
point to point ATM circuit to a far end for.   I have a couple of ideas

on how to get around it, but would really prefer that the 12008 do the 
work.   Doesn't look like an option for me - but figured I'd ask if 
anyone knows of something I missed   The other ends of the ATM 
circuit are various old and new ciscos, some with MPLS, and some not, 
although it doesn't look like the 12008 will do EoMPLS either with the 
engines I have.

Probably will look at some other options using a tunnel or similar.

With what you have, (I believe) you are out of luck. 

Local switching for 'any-to-any' is only supported on the ISE engines
(3+) - all of which are still very expensive.


Option #1 (which I know works) 
enable mpls end to end, and acquire an 3GE-GBIC-SC - which is the 3
port. these can be found for under 1000$ on eBay. The reason is the
1GE-GBIC is an engine1 which cannot do Edge mpls functionality. the
3GE-GBIC is an engine2 which can.

Then, you do mpls l2transport and a xconnect. Documentation on setting
this up is easily found on ciscos site.


Option #2 
   To do anything with l2tp I believe you need a tunneling card, which
requires an engine2 (backbone) card. POS-OC48 is most likely going to be
the cheapest at like 500$ on eBay. I have not done this myself, nor
recommend it. it wastes a slot.

Option #3 
do L2TP to the recently retired 7200 and do the encapsulation
over IP. This I believe is your only 0$ cost option. I would check to
see if all of your devices will do L2tp.

I need help in order to calculate the memory needed to accomodate 2 or
more Full BGP Feeds. This is for a 12400 running IOS. Today i
saw this problem with some linecards:

OUR GE-GBIC-SC-B's w/ 256MB Generally have about 100 megs of ram free
with 2 directly connected full feeds, and at least 6 through ibgp.
There may be a configuration issue.  Only recently have our Engine-0
Cards been running out of memory, as they only have 128MB.

bbr1.tor#execute-on slot 3 show proc mem | i Free
= Line Card (Slot 3) =
Total: 223634112, Used: 88582896, Free: 135051216

We have 12008's with GRP-B's w/ 512 RP Ram.

Hope this helps!

Re: [c-nsp] Channelized DS3 over SM fiber handoff

2009-05-01 Thread Ryan Werber
Allstream at 151 front street in Toronto does this.  They run a single
strand SMF and they terminate it into a form of a media converter, which
passes off 2x BNC as expected for a DS3.  They do this for both clear
channel and channelized DS3.

Interestingly enough, our channelized OC12s come in on a pair of SMF
from them.

I would imagine you would need a similar media converter - I'm sorry I
don't have the model number of the equipment Allstream uses.  All I know
it is some sort of WDM equipment (obviously) on the fiber side.

Maybe; odd though if one asked for a DS3. If that's the case you can
just get an OC3 port adapter.

The default is to deny. You would have to put a permit tcp any any in
first to change that behavior.
