You might want to check out the Citrix Netscaler series.  We discovered

We do have some Foundry loadbalancing gear as well, and it works most
of the time, but overall, we like the Netscalers more.

Not quite cheap, though :-(

  You really need to be careful here.  Keep in mind
  that for the last decade software vendors have been scruplously
  avoiding having shrinkwrap licenses tested in court, there's not been
  a single court case of a software vendor (like Microsoft or Cisco)
  suing anyone for violating a shrinkwrap license that they did not
  explicitly sign and agree to abide by.
 
 Not withstanding the issue of first sale doctrine, I don't think this  
 is true.  In _ProCD, Inc. v. Zeidenberg_, 86 F. 3d. 1447 (7th Cir.  
 1996) the Seventh Circuit said that Shrinkwrap licenses are  
 enforceable unless their terms are objectionable on grounds applicable  
 to contracts in general (for example, if they violate a rule of  
 positive law, or if they are unconscionable).  They further extended  
 this to terms included in the box with hardware in _Hill v. Gateway  
 2000_, 105 F.3d 1147 (7th Cir. 1997).  The Hills received a Gateway  
 computer with terms and conditions inside including an arbitration  
 clause.  The Hills sought to get out of the arbitration clause, but  
 the court held that because they kept the computer more than thirty  
 days, that they had assented to the terms in the contract contained in  
 the computer box.  Note that the Uniform Commercial Code 2-204(1) says  
 that A contract for the sale of goods may be made in any manner  
 sufficient to show agreement, including conduct by both parties which  
 recognizes the existence of such a contract.  The fact that you kept  
 your Cisco router and operated it could be interpreted as acceptance  
 of the software agreement that went with it.
 

I would agree that a shrinkwrap gives the vendor a bit more
control over an embedded software program.  No argument there -
if for example I bought a Cisco router with IOS in rom, the
shrinkwrap would be useful for preventing me from legally
selling copies of the rom.  Of course, what your missing is
that since the rom is copyrighted - it says so on bootup, and
likely on a sticker on the rom, as well as in the code in
the rom - that really a shrinkwrap wouldn't be needed anyhow,
as I could likely successfully be sued for copyright violation.

But as for the implication that a shrinkwrap can get much beyond
what is already enshrined in copyright law, that's a whole
different argument.

The Hill vs Gateway case isn't applicable to this discussion because
it dealt with a contract within the system that covered hardware.  It
was not really a shrinkwrap license.  (indeed, I fail to understand
why people even used that terminology in that case since the
complaint against Gateway was complaining about the hardware, not
the software that was running on the hardware)  You do not license
hardware, you license software.  You own hardware - or at least
in the Hills case, when they bought their system they definitely
owned the hardware.

In any case, how the Hills went about it - attempting to get a class
certified - was exactly the wrong way to do it.  In reality, it was a
simple fraud case.  Gateway advertised and stated on the box that
the machine contained a Millennium card, the system did not actually
contain such a card.  They printed surround sound on the boxes of
the speakers, the speakers were in fact not surround sound.  What
should have happened was that the Hills should have filed a
fraud complaint with their state Attourney General and collected up
all the evidence to prove fraud, then let the AG sue Gateway for
fraud.  The contract inside the box would have had absolutely no
relevance to an easily-proved fraud case, and GW2K would have been
fined and likely forced to make restitution to all the owners.  The
Hills screwed up frankly because they got greedy.  They knew that
an AG settlement would have likely gotten them a lot less money than
a successful class-action, so they jumped for the money.

Now you can think what you want, but it's been
my observation that judges usually take a dim view of individuals
who come across wrongdoing and figure they are going to make a
killing off of it, rather than reporting it to the police and
working within the usual law-enforcement criminal proceedings, and
quite often will twist the law around to screw those individuals out
of their chance to open a cash cow.

Anyway, getting back to the Cisco router IOS argument, I think the
weakness here is that Cisco (at least with current product) is
generally selling a lot of their routers as bundles that is,
you aren't bying a chassis on one line item, and an IOS feature
set on another.  At least, that's what the order of the day is
with the 1800,2800,3800 series of new product.  Ironically, I
think this is more of an anti-piracy measure, as what used to

 I would disagree with what's mostly here.  But, I'm guessing both of us
 aren't lawyers.

 I do know what IS SOP these days.  Buy the gear 3rd party then either the
 seller or buyer downloads and loads up some later software and/or
 different
 feature set.

 That, I know for sure, is illegal unless Cisco offers the code fix for a
 security issue.

It is.  Now, the catch also on the security fixes is that your only
legal if the security fix you get from Cisco is applied to a router
you have IOS licensed for.

In the olden days, you would buy for example a 2500, and a IOS
2500 IP Feature set license, and maybe a service contract.  If
you don't maintain service on it, your still legal to get the
security fix to IP Only since you own the IP Only Feature Set license.

What you aren't legal on is if you go buy a used 2500 and never
had an 2500 IP Only IOS license.  In that case the security update
isn't legal for you, because Cisco doesen't explicitly say you can
use a security update on a router you don't have an IOS license for.
They only explicitly say the security updates are free for contracted
and non-contracted _customers_ the unsaid implication here is that
you possess the license.

 While it won't change any time soon, this is just not the topic for this
 mailing list, and I'll try to return to constructive postings now.

 I guess some (a lot?) on this changed their 6500's for 7600's when they
 had the chance, seeing that it is the SP choice, but maybe in some time
 we can see what way things went. We, as a semi large-ish enterprise
 (government health care), chose to change away from 7600 to 6500 as core
 boxen for our metro/regional network. This was after a long period of
 problems with instability on SRB. Now we run 6500/SXF and it works like
 a charm, knock on wood. (For MPLS VPN + a little EoMPLS + a few service
 modules.)

 (I'm not trying to keep this thread going by the way. Really!)

I have heard some success and failure stories of Cisco 7600.

Probably we have to ask the 7600 BU to improve their software and take 
decisions that make sense:
- They should improve quality of the IOS softwares!! - I have heard that 
SRD will be tested more thoroughly... But currently Cisco 7600 BU played 
on the customer loyalty... and exploited their inability to change.
- Cisco 7600 BU should go something similar to safe harbour
- They (6500 BU and 7600 BU) should support all new supervisor cards... 
RSP720 is not supported in 6500 and sup720-10GE series not supported in 
7600. This is nonsense!
- They can distinguish certain cards to be supported on Cisco 6500 or 
Cisco 7600 according the market segment.
-LAN type switchingcards should be supported on both C7600 and C6500 - 
fabric enabled with *720* and non fabric enabled with sup32* and *720*

Re: [c-nsp] SIP VoIP Config

Hi Tom

I've managed to get it working, tanks. The working config follow in attach.

Now I've a second issue. The outbound calls are supposed to come from a CT
Server (with a Dialogic D/240SC-T1 card) that connects to the router via a
T1.

During the test phase I'm also using an FXS.

From the telephone connected to the FXS the call goes fine but from a
telephone connected to the CT server there's a lot of noise added to the
call channel.

Any idea?

Kind regards

Since you do not specify an authentication command in your sip-ua
configuration, the router is trying to register the number of your
POTS dial-peer(s). Since the VoIP provider doesnt know about the
numbers you are trying to register (888...) they are sending back
a 404 to indicate the number is not valid.

You should check with your VoIP provider and see if you have a
username (i.e. phone number) and password you need to specify when
setting up a SIP client, and use an authentication line like I have in
my config.

There is a 3B - 3BXL upgrade, which used to cost exactly the same as the

So I'd assume that a - 3CXL upgrade should also doable.

Indeed, folks have tested Sup32 with a 3BXL update, and it works, but 
it's unsupported, and most likely there is a check in recent IOS versions
to make sure it doesn't work anymore.  We told you this is not supported!.

Indeed.  Worse, they are now building increasingly different chassis types

nice and shiny high-availability EOBC (if I understand the differences
right).

 - They can distinguish certain cards to be supported on Cisco 6500 or

 -LAN type switchingcards should be supported on both C7600 and C6500 -

I agree with you - this would make sense, and give back the feeling that

[c-nsp] Too many platforms?

2008-04-09 Thread mack
Has anyone considered that Cisco may be branching out to too many platforms?

The 6500 was a great success because it was all purpose.
It can switch and route.
It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the 12000 series or the CRS-1 but 
it performs well.
Cisco has split off the almost identical 7600 and added the competing Nexus.

Now Cisco has (leaving out ME models and other spin offs):
1) CRS-1 high end router
2) 7600 mid range router
3) 6500 mid range general purpose
4) Nexus high end switch
5) 4500 mid range switch

Each one of these is catering to a smaller market segment.
Basic economic would indicate that the market for a general purpose device
is much larger than a more specialized device.

Any tech company need cutting edge products.
But it seems to me that cisco is alienating its customers by splitting the 
7600/6500 series.

Well, AFAIK, you can upgrade a SUP720 with a PFC-3A to one

The upgrade kit also comes with a label to attach to front

Tassos Chatzithomaoglou wrote:

 I note with concern that the Cisco product page lists the VSS as a 
 different product to the base 6500. Ordinarily such a minor thing 
 would not concern me, but as Gert has pointed out repeatedly, Cisco 
 have made people very nervous about the 6500/7600 roadmap...


 
 I've been watching all this conflict going on (and coming to the surface 
 very often on this list) and i was wondering Based on what facts did 
 cisco decide the seperation of the 6500/7600 platforms?
 
 I'm one of the few (would cisco do that if we were many?) like you, who 
 didn't like this decision, but is there a possibility that there is 
 something we're missing that actually made cisco follow that direction?

Well, various people (myself included) have been briefed by their 
account teams.

I was briefed from a 6500 BU perspective, others may be able to chime 
in but basically I was told the BUs want to go in different directions, 
and it was implied that the need to maintain 6500-7600 compatibility 
was hampering their efforts.

It was also implied (bearing in mind I was talking to a 6500 guy) that 
the push came more from the 7600 side of the fence. Specifically I get 
the impression the 7600 BU feel they are or will be outpaced in the 
service provider market if they don't innovate rapidly.

Basically the focus seems to be:

  6500 == enterprise  datacentre - high density, everything in hardware 
and best performance/line rate, support service modules for specific 
things e.g. ACE, FWSM, WISM

  7600 == service provider - lower density, high performance but not 
line-rate, high-touch features like PPPoX termination, mac accounting, etc

Put like that, the decision doesn't seem so unreasonable. But...

The main problem as far as I can see is that Cisco have made (have had 
to make) decisions about what constitutes enterprise (6500) versus 
service provider (7600) and those decisions do not always overlap with 
all customers.

Example: some service providers might consider re-selling virtual 
firewalls on an FWSM an SP, not enterprise feature.

Example: some enterprises consider 5 minute bootup times and 600MHz CPUs 
on their core routers a bit 1990s...

An ancillary problem, and one which draws much of the ire on this list, 
is that there still exists an overlap between the 7600 and 6500 BU, and 
that they are now *actively* competing with each other in those areas. 
People who happen to need features in those areas cannot get a straight 
answer out of either BU because no-one wants to lose business (because 
Cisco are based on commission)

A final problem is that neither BU seems to have done particularly well 
in their first solo IOS fork. The phrase bug riddled crap springs to 
mind...

Certainly Cisco must (should) have had numbers demonstrating the split 
was reasonable, and it's possible the group of people on this list, 
myself included, who dislike the split are a self-selecting minority.

It doesn't mean I have to like it though.

This was publicly confirmed also from the 7600 BU folks. In fact,
they explicitly asked for the split and presented the business case
for it to the top management which gave them green light.

Since the number of 7600 chassis sold is approx 1/10-th of the 6500 ones,
7600 BU has less customers and thus needs to get more money from them.
Thus we're seeing no support for 6500 chassis, per-linecard IPv6/MLPS
licenses and the like stuff...

Time and customers will show if this split was a good decision.

But the whole thing reminds me the DEC TOPS-10 / TOPS-20 / VAX war, the

Hopefully Cisco has read this IT history chapter (alt.sys.pdp10) and will

Hey Arie,

I actually asked this same question to Cisco. The official response I got
was this:

Extract:


This should work to some extent. However, for the large network I don't know
how reliable you can run this system for sure.

You are basically forcing static route in MSFC to forward traffic to the
client vlan of the CSM. This is not something desirable way to do routing on
the CSM. Especially bridge mode.


There will only be 2 VIP's setup this way  never anymore. There will
be many additional VIPs  that will be created using an VIP IP in the same
address range as the real server addresses (Text book scenario).
If the customer were to change the 2 VIP addresses it requires a massive
amount of logistics to do so, hence the reason why I am considering doing it
this way.


I would really like to here what people have to say in relation to this
response  if I should be concerned in doing it like this for just 2 VIP's
only.

 Hi Guys,
 I have a question that I simply cannot find an answer to on the Cisco
 site in regards to the CSM in Bridge mode.
 Is it possible to have the vserver (VIP) IP in a differnt subnet range
 than the real IP addresses in the serverfarm that is bound to it?

 In other words, as an example a typical bridge configuration is like
 this:



 vlan 221 client
  ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
  gateway 10.20.220.1
 !
 vlan 220 server
  ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
 Two VLANs with the same IP address are bridged
 together.
 serverfarm WEBFARM
  nat server
  no nat client
  real 10.20.220.10
  inservice
  real 10.20.220.20
  inservice
 !
 vserver WEB
  virtual 10.20.220.100 tcp www
  serverfarm WEBFARM
  persistent rebalance
  inservice



 Is it possible to do something like this:

 vlan 221 client
  ip address 10.20.220.2 255.255.255.0
  gateway 10.20.220.1

 !
 vserver WEB
  virtual 50.40.220.99 tcp www Place the IP address in a
 different subnet than the IP's in the serverfarm 
 serverfarm WEBFARM  persistent rebalance  inservice


 On the MSFC place a static route to route the 50.40.220.99
 address towards the CSM IP on vlan 221.

 ip route 50.40.220.99 255.255.255.255 10.20.220.2

2008-04-09 Thread Chris Riling
I have several VIPs in different subnets than the reals, but he's right to
some extent, the static routing can be cumbersome. I inherited an
environment where IP space overlapped, and existed on both sides of the CSM,
and there were a bunch of more specific routes pointed toward the CSM client
VLAN. At least in times moving forward if they insist on have VIPs and reals
live on different subnets, I atleast now have a block of IPs pointed just
toward the CSM for this purpose and nothing else... I'm not sure how else
you would do it since the CSM VLAN interfaces don't become part of the IP
routing table, but then again I haven't played with that too much, since I
already inherited this mess... ;)

 There will only be 2 VIP's setup this way  never anymore. There will
 be many additional VIPs  that will be created using an VIP IP in the same
 address range as the real server addresses (Text book scenario).
 If the customer were to change the 2 VIP addresses it requires a massive

 this way.
 
 
 I would really like to here what people have to say in relation to this
 response  if I should be concerned in doing it like this for just 2 VIP's
 only.

I have over 400 VIPs on a CSM running in this way, in bridged mode, without
advertise active.  Any IP can be used as a VIP so long as traffic to that IP
ends up directed to the CSM's client VLAN IP.

The easiest way to do this is add a static route for the VIP to the
CSM's client IP on the MSFC.  So for your example below, you would need
ip route 50.40.220.99 255.255.255.255 10.20.220.2.

If you have an FT setup, you'll want the next-hop to be the client
VLAN's alias IP.

[c-nsp] Identifying BGP route flapping

2008-04-09 Thread Frank Bulk
We had an incident a little over a week ago where our upstream provider
(which managers our edge routers) told us that the BGP routes were flapping
between our two edge routers.

Is there a MIB that we can poll to monitor the number of changes in routing
tables, or BGP flaps?

We've performed such an upgrade from 3A to 3BXL, to get around the 256k
FIB table limitation. The real bust comes when you have to upgrade all of
the DFC's with the PFC. If you don't, it'll run in the least common
denominator.

Hi,

 There is a 3B - 3BXL upgrade, which used to cost exactly the same as 
 the price difference between a Sup720/3B and a Sup720/3BXL (so it's 
 not a we'll send you a new Sup720).

Yup. The WS-F6K-PFC3BXL= is just that: a new -3BXL PFC and some memory to
upgrade the Sup itself to 1GB RAM.

[c-nsp] C6k diag failure in lab, need to worry?

2008-04-09 Thread Peter Rathlev
'ello,

We just had a funny experience with a C6k/720 in our lab. We were
testing SXF13 AIS, and during a reload we saw the following:

00:01:36: %SCHED-SP-7-WATCH: Attempt to monitor uninitialized watched
bitfield (address 0).
-Process= Shutdown, ipl= 0, pid= 256
-Traceback= 402C3A18 404ED840 4029C954 4029C940
00:01:40: %DIAG-SP-3-MAJOR: Module 5: Online Diagnostics detected a
Major Error.
 Please use 'show diagnostic result target' to see test results.
00:01:40: %CONST_DIAG-SP-3-BOOTUP_TEST_FAIL: Module 5: TestAclDeny
failed 
00:01:41: %OIR-SP-6-INSCARD: Card inserted in slot 5, interfaces are now
online
Reload scheduled for 07:05:31 PST Wed Apr 9 2008 (in 13 seconds)

Module 5 is the supervisor. Afterwards it reloaded and didn't do it
again, also across several reboots. It's a Sup720-3B with a single
WS-X6708-10GE and a WS-SVC-FWM-1. It never reaches starting GOLD for the
DFC.

I didn't have the time to do the show diagnostics result before
reboot, and afterwards it say it never got a failure on TestAclDeny:

fw1#sh diagnostic res mod 5 test 18 det
Current bootup diagnostic level: minimal
  Test results: (. = Pass, F = Fail, U = Untested)
___
   18) TestAclDeny - .
  Error code -- 3 (DIAG_SKIPPED)
  Total run count - 1
  Last test execution time  Apr 09 2008 07:08:26
  First test failure time - n/a
  Last test failure time -- n/a
  Last test pass time - Apr 09 2008 07:08:26
  Total failure count - 0
  Consecutive failure count --- 0
___
fw1#

None of the other tests show any failures either: show diagnostics
result module 5 detail | incl failure gives only 0 and n/a stats. I
can do diagnostic start module 5 test 18 all I want and no failures by
the way, just getting %DIAG-SP-6-TEST_OK: Module 5: TestAclDeny{ID=18}
has completed successfully and no problems.

Is this something we should try and dig into, reporting it to TAC? Or
should we just ignore this ~5 min delay in a lab reboot? We can't seem
to reproduce it. :'(

The box had just been upgraded to SXF13 AES shortly before (from SXF6
AIS) due to some miscommunications, and this was the first boot on SXF13
AIS, but I can't imagine this can have any impact.

Peter

Re: [c-nsp] Identifying BGP route flapping

2008-04-09 Thread Mike Johnson
That will work for local BGP flaps, but if you are trying to monitor BGP
flaps on the net this will not work.
You could setup a router that has BGP dampening enabled, this will give you
a look into flaps
on the net.

 You can find out when the session last changed, how many messages have

 I'm one of the few (would cisco do that if we were many?) like you, who

We were in the unfortunately position to buy a pair of 7600s right when 
the BUs split the 6500 and 7600.  We had to run SR to get CALEA support. 
  SR meant no support for the WebVPN linecard or the SLB linecard.  The 
7600 itself meant no support for inline IDS for the IDSM2 linecards. 
Unfortunately the Dynamic Config Tool allowed just such a system to be 
built.  It wasn't until some of the hardware shipped that the errors 
were discovered and the shipments came to a halt.  It took months to 
sort on the mess.  We had to run SR; there wasn't another choice with 
the feature(s) we needed.  Replacing the SLB with an ACE was an easy 
fix.  Replacing the WebVPN module took forever to work out.  In the end 
it was replaced with a pair of 3845s loaded out with the VPN crypto 
modules and SSL VPN licenses.  During that time the RSP720 started 
shipping.  However our order wasn't updated to take advantage of the RSP 
so we got stuck with the Sup720-3BXL.

Talk about bad timing.

Peter, 

You can ignore this one, as it should not have any impact, after the
second reload.

We have seen this very rarely (once in 100+ reboots, on very few
systems), where an ASIC was not intialized properly, 
and diagnostics was  catching the condition, and resetting the
supervisor.

If your goal is to have people with a piece of paper that says CCNP, 
then the $7-10k bootcamps are the way to go.  If your goal is to have 
people who are competent at IP networking and Cisco configuration and 
troubleshooting, consider the Cisco Academy classes taught at many 
community colleges.  Substantially less costly but a much slower (like a 
few semesters instead of a week) and more thorough process.

 You can ignore this one, as it should not have any impact, after the

 We have seen this very rarely (once in 100+ reboots, on very few
 systems), where an ASIC was not intialized properly, 
 and diagnostics was  catching the condition, and resetting the
 supervisor.

  'ello,
  
  We just had a funny experience with a C6k/720 in our lab. 
  We were testing SXF13 AIS, and during a reload we saw the following:
  
  00:01:36: %SCHED-SP-7-WATCH: Attempt to monitor uninitialized 
  watched bitfield (address 0).
  -Process= Shutdown, ipl= 0, pid= 256

  00:01:40: %DIAG-SP-3-MAJOR: Module 5: Online Diagnostics 
  detected a Major Error.
   Please use 'show diagnostic result target' to see test results.
  00:01:40: %CONST_DIAG-SP-3-BOOTUP_TEST_FAIL: Module 5: 
  TestAclDeny failed
  00:01:41: %OIR-SP-6-INSCARD: Card inserted in slot 5, 
  interfaces are now online Reload scheduled for 07:05:31 PST 
  Wed Apr 9 2008 (in 13 seconds)
  
  Module 5 is the supervisor. Afterwards it reloaded and didn't 
  do it again, also across several reboots. It's a Sup720-3B 
  with a single WS-X6708-10GE and a WS-SVC-FWM-1. It never 
  reaches starting GOLD for the DFC.
  
  I didn't have the time to do the show diagnostics result 
  before reboot, and afterwards it say it never got a failure 
  on TestAclDeny:
  
  fw1#sh diagnostic res mod 5 test 18 det
  Current bootup diagnostic level: minimal
Test results: (. = Pass, F = Fail, U = Untested) 
  __
  _
 18) TestAclDeny - .
Error code -- 3 (DIAG_SKIPPED)
Total run count - 1
Last test execution time  Apr 09 2008 07:08:26
First test failure time - n/a
Last test failure time -- n/a
Last test pass time - Apr 09 2008 07:08:26
Total failure count - 0
Consecutive failure count --- 0 
  __
  _
  fw1#
  
  None of the other tests show any failures either: show 
  diagnostics result module 5 detail | incl failure gives only 
  0 and n/a stats. I can do diagnostic start module 5 test 
  18 all I want and no failures by the way, just getting 
  %DIAG-SP-6-TEST_OK: Module 5: TestAclDeny{ID=18} has 
  completed successfully and no problems.
  
  Is this something we should try and dig into, reporting it to 
  TAC? Or should we just ignore this ~5 min delay in a lab 
  reboot? We can't seem to reproduce it. :'(
  
  The box had just been upgraded to SXF13 AES shortly before 
  (from SXF6
  AIS) due to some miscommunications, and this was the first 
  boot on SXF13 AIS, but I can't imagine this can have any impact.
  
  Regards,
  Peter

[c-nsp] CBWFQ-LLQ on PPPoE Virtual Templates

2008-04-09 Thread Gregory Boehnlein
Hello,
We have a 7206 running (C7200-IK9S-M), Version 12.3(20), RELEASE
SOFTWARE (fc2). We are trying to get LLQ implemented on Virtual Template
interfaces for our PPPoE DSL users:

vpdn-group akrnaa01rr
 description SBC Akron VPDN Group
 accept-dialin
  protocol l2tp
  virtual-template 1
 terminate-from hostname akrnaa01rr.oh.AADS
 local name xx
 lcp renegotiation always
 l2tp tunnel password 7 xxx

interface Virtual-Template1
 mtu 1492
 ip unnumbered Loopback1
 rate-limit output access-group 102 8000 1500 2000 conform-action transmit
exceed-action drop
 no ip route-cache cef
 no ip route-cache
 no logging event link-status
 peer default ip address pool ppp
 keepalive 5
 compress stac
 ppp max-bad-auth 5
 ppp authentication pap
 ppp chap refuse
 service-policy output llq-policy
end

It seems to take it fine, but when I do a show policy-map interfaces I get
the following output;

Virtual-Template1 

  Service-policy output: llq-policy

Service policy content is displayed only for cloned interfaces only such
as vaccess and sessions

I can't tell if this means that the service-policy is not enabled for the
interface, or if it just doesn't show up. Any ideas?

Re: [c-nsp] Identifying BGP route flapping

We're not that desperate to monitor BGP flaps to install a router, and even,
that's not a counter, is it?

 

Sounds like there's no nice option to measure instability.

That will work for local BGP flaps, but if you are trying to monitor BGP
flaps on the net this will not work.
You could setup a router that has BGP dampening enabled, this will give you
a look into flaps
on the net.

 Is there a MIB that we can poll to monitor the number of changes in

 tables, or BGP flaps?

You can find out when the session last changed, how many messages have
been sent across the session and how many updates have been sent across
the session.

Sadly i don't think there's a flap counter you can poll.

Re: [c-nsp] CBWFQ-LLQ on PPPoE Virtual Templates

2008-04-09 Thread David Coulson
You can do:

show run int virtual-access XXX

It probably won't list it in there though.

You can inject it into the interface via RADIUS using the Cisco-AVpair 
attribute

Cisco-AVPair = lcp:interface-config#1=service-policy output llq-policy

FYI, those users are technically PPPoVPDN - PPPoE and PPPoA users have a 
different template.

The 3550 can perform per-port/per-VLAN MQC. I can't speak for the VLAN ID
rewriting, though, and I don't believe this functionality exists in the
3560.

Re: [c-nsp] Identifying BGP route flapping

2008-04-09 Thread David Coulson
Maybe I missed something. Your upstream manages the routers, so can they 
not explain the route flaps? I would think the burden would be on them 
to demonstrate why your sessions reset?

Was there an event which caused the flaps?

 Hard to say without having a sh int fa0/0 from when the issue hit. The
 description says that only a reload would clear this kind of problem,
 but it's old and things may have changed. My Fa0/0 input queue looks like
 
   Input queue: 0/75/0/2 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 0
 
 and I ponder what the two flushes may be. I did indeed have exactly two
 occasions of the interface hanging that could be cleaned with a clear int.

Compare that with my 7200 :

  Input queue: 0/75/19755/291735 (size/max/drops/flushes); Total output drops: 
715217
  ...
   Received 23535684 broadcasts, 0 runts, 233 giants, 4480 throttles
   568580 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 396581 overrun, 171629 ignored


That's after around 5 weeks of uptime.  We had a DoS attack a couple of
weeks ago, that might explain the crazy numbers.

BTW, it's not memory, neither of my two routers that have the problem
are memory constrained nor do they have a lot of routes.

 Further, just giving it a clear int when it is running normally doesn't
 increment that counter. When it strikes again (hopefully auto-healed by my
 new EEM applet) and that counter increments, it's probably indeed an input
 queue overrun (wedged).

Will the EEM applet leave something in your log when it resets the
interface?  Otherwise, if the auto-heal happens fast enough, you might
not know that it kicked in.

 BTW, there's also a chance of the switch being involved.

I've checked this a couple of times and never found anything.
Also, the two routers affected are in wildly disparate environments.
