[c-nsp] [Slightly OT]: Silly Question

2011-02-09 Thread Tim Donahue
Sorry for the slightly OT question, but my google-fu can't seem to find 
a definitive answer for this.


We recently replaced our Checkpoint firewall with a Fortigate FW and our 
business requirements have grown for the FW.  We need to setup an 
virtual domain with a new network to meet the new requirements, and I 
want to create this using the existing external interface and add a .1q 
tagged vlan for the virtual domain.  According to the Fortigate 
documentation, there should be no problem configuring this on the firewall.


The firewall is directly connected to a Cisco 3845 using the built in 
gig 0/0 port.  If it is possible, I would like to leave the existing 
subnet as untagged so we don't need to interrupt traffic to the 
firewall.  I would like to add the second subnet on a dot1q tagged sub 
interface.  If memory serves me correctly, the configuration below 
should accomplish this but it has been quite a while since the last time 
I worked with a Cisco router.


interface gigabitEthernet 0/0
  ip address 10.1.10.1 255.255.255.0
!
interface gigabitEthernet 0/0.20
  encapsulation dot1q 20
  ip address 10.1.20.1 255.255.255.0
!

In the end, it all boils down to a couple questions.

Can the internal Gigabit interfaces on the 3845 support VLAN tagging, or 
would I need the HWIC-1GE-SFP which states it supports vlan trunking in 
the data sheet?


Do routed interfaces on the 3845 offer the ability to support tagged and 
untagged traffic as configured above?


Thank you,

Tim Donahue

According to the NANOG thread on this, it would seem that the bug would
be CSCdr54230.

Re: [c-nsp] multilink frame relay configuration examples

2008-06-13 Thread Tim Donahue
Scott, although not specifically for the 2600 series, try the first  
link when you search for "site:cisco.com multilink frame relay" on  
Google.


According to the Feature Navigator, Frame Relay Multilink is supported  
on the 2600s in the 12.2T which is the release the document at the  
first link that Google returns is using, but you will need the the IP  
Plus feature set.

I've been googling and searching on the cisco site but many of the
documents point to broken links.  I'm looking for pointers for
configuring (if possible) multilink frame relay on a 2600 series.  We
want to terminate 2 Frame Relay T1's on a single 2600 series if
possible.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thank you
Scott

I think that you and Cisco are using different definitions of the term  
'Data Center'.  From my understanding, this product is targeted at the  
Enterprise Data Center, not for a Service Provider Data Center.

I agree that it would be silly to build a device that targets the SP  
market without MPLS, however, your average 'Enterprise' data center  
environment does not use MPLS throughout.  For a device that targets  
this market, I think it would be silly for them to waste resources  
putting a MPLS feature set into a device that would typically never  
need it.  In the Enterprise, MPLS typically exists on the network edge  
for WAN connections, not throughout the network like a Service  
Provider would require.
