I've used MLPPP before with T1s...not the hardest thing to do...in fact, MLFR is a little bigt nastier, but still nothing that the average CCNA couldn't wrap their brain around... Erik Amundson -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behal

I've always been kind of conflicted with this issue. I mean, providers blocking traffic at all. On the one hand, I'm a corporate customer, and if I'm being DOSed or infected, I would want to be able to call my ISP and have it blocked. On the other hand, I truly feel that I pay my ISPs to pass t

RE: Why do so few mail providers support Port 587?

2005-02-15 Thread Erik Amundson
I just get sick of providers blocking traffic...their job is to PASS TRAFFIC. There must be a better solution, but laziness is getting the better of us all, as usual. We've had so many problems with "IP Providers" blocking various "IP PROTOCOLS" that we've just ended up forcing all of our users

Well,   In my experience it depends on the model of router.  I had a 3640 (granted, it's old) with 128MB that was just fine until a couple of months ago, now it's not enough.  For one BGP table you will have to have at least 256MB in a 36xx router.  Our 720xVXR routers currently have 256MB i

Hello NANOG!   Is anyone having routing issues or packet loss with MCI/UUNet today?  I have an AS701 connection at my orginization, and we've had thousands of customer calls starting at about 2:13AM CDT.  We've shutdown 701 as a peer because traceroutes seem to expose some packet loss and

It is possible that this issue is being cause by the customer's firewall as well. Every Ethernet cable has two ends. :) I would check and see if the customer's firewall log says anything. I believe doing a shut/no shut on the Cat 4006 causes the Ethernet link to 'flap' on the port, causing the

I have been looking into the Cisco Aironet solution recently for a project I'm working on. They seem to have some great security features, if you want to take the time to configure it. Oh, another caveat is that you have to use Cisco's wireless adapter as well, otherwise, good ol' WEP f
