[c-nsp] Limiting Broadcast and Multicast

2008-08-16 Thread Hash Aminu
Hi guys


My network has a huge L2 broadcast coming from the clients connected
(through DSLAMs)the customer edge facing interfaces are on a 76k with
7600-ES20-GE and 7600-ES20-10G, AFAIK these cards dont support
Storm-control--what other variants and options do i have in limiting these
garbage before it gets to my network.

TIA

[c-nsp] PIX 7.2 behaviour for NAT exemption

2008-08-16 Thread Amol Sapkal
Hello all,

I am looking at a firewall configuration, which has multiple DMZs. Of these,
here are the configurations for three DMZs

DMZ A: security level 50
DMZ B: security level 20
DMZ C: security level 0

Subnet X belongs to DMZ A
subnet Y belongs to DMZ B
Subnet Z belongs to DMZ C

Rules:
Subnet X on DMZ A is 'NAT exempted' with another subnet Y on DMZ B (using
ACL)
Subnet X is allowed 'ip any' access (incoming access-list), on DMZ A
access-list
On DMZ C, there is a 'permit ip any any' (incoming access-list)

PIX software: v7.2(1)

Analysis:
Because subnet X is 'nat exempted', it will translate as-is for any traffic
originating towards and from (bi-directional behaviour) the subnet Y. BUT,
this will also translate the subnet X, *as is*, on the DMZ C (if DMZ A
subnet tries to direct any traffic towards DMZ C subnet).

Understanding:
Given the above configuration (and my analysis), if there is any traffic
originating from DMZ A (higher) to DMZ C (lower), it will be allowed.
Also, if there any traffic originating from DMZ C to DMZ A (lower to
higher), the traffic will be allowed because the ACLs allow those and
because the NAT exemption rule will translate the subnet on all DMZs
(assuming there was an attempt initially to send traffic towards DMZ C, from
DMZ A)

It's been a year now that I touched a PIX, and now am unable to remember how
this works. Would be nice if someone here could help me validate my
understandng of the above.

Thanks in advance.

Hi guys


I am trying to find a Feature that will be able to replace Route bridge
Encapsulation..because we are migrating to the 12.2S and does not support
that feature..any thoughts or Ideas will be useful. Thanks

 PS - Should I worry (alot) about being at or slightly above the 40 Km 
 distance?

The key question is, how much loss (in dB) do you have on that line, and
on the tolerances of the X2 optics in question - a best case X2 will
transmit with +4.0 dBm, while a worst case X2 will transmit with -4.7 dBm,
according to:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/lan/catalyst6500/hardware/Module_Installation/Mod_Install_Guide/0btransc.html

- so with a receiver sensitivity of -15.8 dBm, you have a power budget of
11.1 dB to 19.8 dB.   11.1 dB is very tight for a 40km span - you need good
fibers, and nearly no patches in between (every patch brings about 0.5 dB 
loss).

You need to ask your carrier about the attenuation of the fiber path.

Makes me wonder why you would want to migrate to a dead IOS train that
doesn't deliver what you want...

But if you insist on feeling the pain, the alternative to RBE is classical
ATM bridging - setup a BVI interface, a bridge-group, and put the ATM VC
into the bridge group.  Nasty, does not scale well (maximum of 255 bridge-
groups), and much more convoluted configuration.

Re: [c-nsp] PIX 7.2 behaviour for NAT exemption

2008-08-16 Thread Michael Smith
Hello Amol:

By my reading you are correct.  The basic rule is nat from higher to lower,
ACL from lower to higher.  You have to have NAT translations when going
from a higher security level to a lower security level, so from DMZ A to DMZ
B or C in your example.

If you don't want that traffic to be translated, you'll need a NAT statement
that exempts all traffic back and forth between the two security areas.  As
an example:

Nat (dmz-c) 0 0 access-list to-dmz-b
Nat (dmz-b) 0 0 access-list to-dmz-c

Access-list to-dmz-b permit ip subnet z subnet y
Access-list to-dmz-c permit ip subnet y subnet z

These would be in addition to any translations you *want* to occur, using
'nat (interface) 1'

Hope that helps,

Mike

Re: [c-nsp] Verizon TLS

2008-08-16 Thread Jason Berenson
Huh? 

FA0/0 connects directly to the TLS and FA0/1 connects to the customer 
switch.  The TLS passes through the router before it ever hits their 
public switch.

Your diagram and config conflict with each other; according to the config, 
you're routing to the TLS *through* the switch. According to the diagram, the 
2651XM is directly connected to the TLS, and is directly connected to the 
switch.

My guess is that the switch leaks traffic between VLANs. The easiest workaround 
is probably just to connect the 2651XM directly to the TLS.  They didn't have 
the problem with the T1s since they weren't going through the switch.

Re: [c-nsp] ip cef load sharing

2008-08-16 Thread Ben Steele
Dan the reason your having issues is not MTU related, it's NAT related, 
because you have 3 ADSL lines each doing NAT against a different outside IP 
when you turn on per-packet load sharing you end up with flows to the same 
destination having different source IP addresses.


Your only option is per-destination load balancing (ie the default), one way 
you can tweak this a little without breaking to much is to change the 
standard algorithm to include ports.


Try adding ip cef load-sharing algorithm include-ports destination into 
your global config once you've removed your per-packet load sharing and see 
how you go.


You are never going to get perfect load balancing in your scenario but if 
you have enough hosts on your LAN it should be sufficient enough, one way 
you can do per-packet is if you get another IP routed down all 3 adsl lines 
and put it on a loopback and NAT everything against that.
