RE: IP Address Tracking?
We actively use freeipdb, and I do development work on it. If the original maintainer is gone and CW doesn't mind I'll take over. Do you need some help with it? -ejay -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Slagle Sent: Monday, October 18, 2004 12:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: IP Address Tracking? A few years ago, it seemed freeipdb and NorthStar were the way to go. freeipdb.org is DOA, and NorthStar's last development note is over a year ago with CVS unreachable. Are these two projects dead? If do, what are people using now. Thanks, Jason -- Jason Slagle - CCNP - CCDP /\ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign .

We're getting feedback that it was deliberate vandalism, fiber cut in a manhole in a railroad yard in Rialto, CA.

RE: Cisco etherchannel question
When using EtherChannel or 802.3ad, the load balancing done by the devices on the either end can follow completely different algorithms. One end may be using the source or destination MAC address and the other end may be using source mac, destination mac combination. Some other algorithms can go up as far the IP header to do the load balancing. So finer the granularity of the flow, the better the chances of getting load balance across the ports. However, whatever mechanism they follow, they have to adhere to a rule of NOT re-ordering packets in a flow. It appears that the router seems to have a better load balancing than the switch. I am not sure but the switch may have some knobs that allow you to balance on additional headers in the header.

For data going from 7500 router everything seems to be ok and data is well split between four interfaces with about 1/4th sent to each one (about 40% utilization each right now). But for data going from 5500 switch the split appears to be that one interface has 100% utilization while another one is 20% and others are less then 10%. So its not really splitting data on random basis to each interface and uses other interfaces as overflow after the main one. I don't like this as the one interface that is 100% full appears to sometimes be dropping packets on either switch or cisco router side. I'm wondering what I can do to force 5500 to use etherchannel in similar way cisco 7500 does? -- William Leibzon Elan Networks [EMAIL PROTECTED]
