Each site of which there a large number(a chain of hotels) each has a

doubtful that the kit is unable to handle the load.

 The customer would be fine for a period of time (a few hours or less), then 
 would not be able to reach the world until they rebooted it.  Because we 
 didn't manage the 800, we had no visibility to it, so I cannot tell you 
 the specific reason.  Because the issue went away after he customer 
 upgraded their hardware, we can only assume that the 800 was insufficient 
 for their needs.
Our customer wont consider swaping kit out, your experiance sounds more
advanced than ours we are only seeing the issue sporadicly.

 Hello all,
 
 We have a strange issue between PIX 501's running 6.3(5) and our 800 series
 routers, we are using verious 800s(857/877) with a spread of IOS versions. 
 The problem manifests itself as a drop of connectivity between the two
 devices, that being we lose layer 3 forwarding out of the switch-port
 module on the 800.
 
 We are of the opinion we have ethernet connectivity between devices as
 the mac-address table is being populated after being cleared, and
 linkstate show up/up but we cannot ping, nor can the device ARP for 
 the PIX. 
 
 Static ARP entrys also no not fix the issue, the only way we have found
 so far to fix the problem is to reboot the 800.
 
 Has anyone experienced this kind of problem before?

Fiber is much more sensitive to dust, bending and other kind of things 
that might happen day-to-day with people who don't really know or care 
about data communication. It's also more expensive generally (everything 
involved, NICs, switches and cables is more expensive).


Why would you want to do it? I don't really see any pros what so ever to

Well, it does rather depend on your requirements.

My opinion is that it's good:
where you're not allowed copper, like oil refineries
where copper cable won't work due to massive interference
where you must have runs to desktops that are over 90m (tho I've some 
long runs on cat6 that work at 100M, just keep them below 200m, and use 
quality cable)


Downsides are obviously:
cost of adapters for PCs
cost of fibre switches
single-technology (you don't get 10/100/1000 fibre standards, so you 
have to do all one-standard)

it's more sensitive to being bashed, stood on, etc

Back in the day, when they thought copper was dead, Brand-Rex developed 
a shotgun copper+blown-fibre tube called BloTwist. 
(http://www.ezziengineering.com/pdf/cables/BloliteBro.pdf) . Of all the 
places our local Brand-Rex guy knows they fitted it, not one has used 
the fibre capability to date.


What actually is your requirement?

[c-nsp] WDM Splitter

Guys,

Has anyone used one of these WDM splitter cables from cisco

https://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5455/ps6575/product_data_sheet0900aecd8029d01b_ps708_Products_Data_Sheet.html

If I'm reading the data sheet correctly, since it splits off the 1300 and
1550 wavelengths you *should* be able to get 2x10-GE out of a single
pair with an LR and ER optic at either end.

Thanks,

We have an extensive fiber to the desk network.

The pros are that it allowed us to centralize equipment much farther
away from the clients than the 100m distance limitation of twisted pair.
 This allowed for better port utilization, better environmentals (power
and cooling in one place rather than lots of closets)

The current plant we're on has supported us from 10BaseFL, 100BaseFX,
ATM155, and will continue to support us through 1000BaseX (though we
might run into some distance limitations on some of our stations).  So,
the plant has last much longer than a copper plant would have.

Cons:
The electronics are more expensive: fiber switchports will cost mor and
you'll need media converters or fiber NICs, the fiber patch cords are
more expensive.

Connectors: There has been one copper connector for twisted pair
ethernet, while we have several for fiber

No speed negotiation: we do have some devices that are 10Base-T only or
100Base-T only, so that presents a challenge (different client equipment
to allow for rate adaptation.

New problems that are arising:
No realistic PoE option: we have a growing demand for network powered
devices (APs and phones).  There are power injecting media converters,
but they are more expensive.

What specifically is leading you to FTTD?

It sounds like your application is something along the lines of what is
depicted in Figure 12. WDM Splitter Cable for Non-CWDM Applications?

I haven't used that specific part to do a 1310/1550 10G network, but we
have a similar part from Fiberdyne (a Dual Window Mux) to do a SONET (at
1310) overlay on a DWDM signal.  We also have a 1000BaseLX overlay onto
DWDM systems and have even done a video signal at 1310 using these parts.

As long as you could run either optic over this cable without the
combiner/splitter, you should be fine.  It will introduce a bit of loss,
so make sure you account for that.

I tend to agree with Matthew and the others that have 
commented on this.

The issue of distance and bandwidth notwithstanding, we've 
experienced situations where delivering fibre to somebody's 
home or desk is considered more for marketing mileage than 
any technical reasons. However, that also tends to set you 
up for a potential PR disaster since customers tend to eat 
that  up, and misunderstand it at the same time.

Unless you're trying to solve a distance problem, and/or 
your customer requires anything more than 1Gbps (well, 
Cat-6a, as others have mentioned, has been standardized - 
but diffusion may take a while) then consider copper. 
Otherwise, the additional potential cost in maintaining it 
does not really justify passing over copper solutions, IMHO.

Moreover, fibre deployments to the home or desk require CPE, 
which, in very many cases, speak copper on the other end. So 
what's really the point? Needless to say, laptops, routers, 
switches, set-top boxes, wi-fi AP's, PC's, Mac's, game 
consoles, Tv's, e.t.c., all ship with RJ-45 dual- or tri-
rate copper ports as standard these days. So no need for 
CPE, no need for additional customer training, e.t.c.

digress

Again, distance and bandwidth notwithstanding, this, in my 
mind, tends to question the long-term sustainability of 
FTTH, either through PON (Passive Optical Networks) or 
Active Ethernet. Since FTTH is looked at as a potential 
replacement for regular ADSL (i.e., consumer broadband), how 
many users can eat up a 1Gbps connection, assuming their ISP 
let them? This is not considering bandwidth used by IPTv and 
such, as customers buy channels for IPTv services, not 
bandwidth to drive the channels (that's the service 
provider's problem).

Mark.

2009-11-12 Thread Buhrmaster, Gary
 I need to know your opinion about fiber to desk i.e. pros and cons..

If one needs fiber for distance, electrical isolation, 
limited space/cooling for access switches, etc., one
may want to look at various FTTx technologies (xPON and
friends) which can provide fiber to near the desk with a
relatively low cost drop to copper (the ONT) at the desk.
Note that FTTx is (mostly) a residential subscriber type
of solution (more bandwidth *to* the desk than from it),
and that may not meet the needs of servers or power
users (that are really more like servers).  As with all
else, your particular situation will vary.

A presentation by Sandia at the Internet2/ESCC Joint
Techs meeting in Indiana in June of 2009 discussed their
particular FTTx plans (and may provide some thoughts):

And don't just look at capex. Consider opex too (both 
financial and otherwise).

Cheers,

Mark.

[c-nsp] Client-to-client wireless on 877W

2009-11-12 Thread Seth Mattinen
Does anyone know offhand how to enable local wireless bridge (client to
client communication) on the radio on a Cisco 877W? I swear I thought I
saw it in the docs somewhere a year ago when I set this thing up, but
for the life of me I can't find it now or I'm not searching for whatever
Cisco likes to call this function.

Re: [c-nsp] SP QoS Service Class

Travis,

This map has worked pretty well for us.  The idea behind splitting out 
RTP from signaling is if signaling doesn't get through, the call will 
drop.  I welcome constructive criticism.  :)

I'm trying to plan for a QoS implementation for an Internet Access provider.
I just finished reading RFC 4594 and it recommends VoIP signalling traffic
be marked CS5. Every other reference I have seen always has it at AF31 or
CS3. Is anyone else using the RFC recommendation? Would any SP be willing to
share a general configuration for service classes they have defined.

Sorry for the duplicate, I sent from the wrong email address before.

[c-nsp] C6K, SUP720, 12.2(33)SXI, CoPP, glean

2009-11-12 Thread Tim Durack
Anyone know how glean traffic behaves on a Sup720 with CoPP configured?

We have gradually locked down our CoPP config, to the point that our
final class is a default deny for any unclassified traffic.
Unfortunately this has the unwanted side-effect of dropping glean
traffic, with the knock-on effect of some arp resolution problems.

In our tests, it appears that configuring an explicit class-default
works around this, but I can't find any documentation. So far TAC
hasn't come up with anything either.

On the Nexus, docs specifically state that glean traffic is directed
to the default class.

[c-nsp] MAC address use on 7600

2009-11-12 Thread Rin
Hi group, 

 

Can someone explain why router 7600 uses the same MAC address for all VLAN
interfaces and ES20 ports? Catalyst 3560 has different MAC address for each
VLAN interface. 

 

Thanks, 

Rin

[c-nsp] router boots into ROMMON

2009-11-12 Thread selamat pagi
My 7600 boots ignores the boot statement  and goes into ROMMON.
From ROMMON I can boot with following command:

config:

BOOTLDR variable =
Configuration register is 0x2102

Any ideas what could be wrong ?

Re: [c-nsp] router boots into ROMMON

2009-11-12 Thread Chris Phillips
Config register looks fine.  Most obvious thing would be that the bin 
file doesn't exist.


What does dir sup-bootdisk:c7600s72033-ipservices-mz.122-33.SRD.bin 
return?  Does the file exist?
