Forbes, Can you give me a little more info on the setup of your network? Are you layer 2 throughout your backhauls and tower sites? I have seen OSPF flapping causing some weird issues on layer 3 networks. If you look at the routers in the tower site, do you see anything in the log as to what is

Thanks Eric, We run a 2811 Cisco core router that feeds a Vyatta server for handing out private static and public addresses which runs into a Mikrotik bandwidth unit then over six backhauls to various towers from our head end. Six towers relay to the next tower down. We have about 70 Public

Are they really down, or can you just not get to them? That is, are the customers calling that they are down? Do you use dynamic routing such as RIP or OSPF? If so, I would suspect something is making them drop and reestablish routes. Accept and drop do what they say for traffic destined for t

If it is bridged a single router plugged in backwords can bring down the whole network. Some 750¹s would be a good fix.When I had HighGain Aps as bridges we would run into this problem as well. I never figured it out because we eventually went to MT aps. -- Justin Wilson http://www.mtin

Sounds like you need some filtering bridges to help you in the meantime. Drop some in the network and add some rules for DHCP and such. You don¹t have to re-address. -- Justin Wilson http://www.mtin.net/blog Wisp Consulting ­ Tower Climbing ­ Network Support From: Forbes Mercy Reply-

Hey whoever forwarded my issue to Brett thanks, he pointed out how to isolate individual bridges with WireShark. I did that and found the tower, it's too late today but having that tower down brought the rest of the system back up. As Marlon said "so will you be routed tomorrow?" Well maybe
