Re: [c-nsp] ASR1002-X (2) full BGP feeds
Hello That was also the case for the ASR1001 but we just checked the specification for the ram and then sought out some compatible sticks (seems like HP has some server that uses the same specification) When that was done all we needed to do was to see who was making sticks to compatible with the HP Spare part number. :) Gustav UHLANDER Senior Communication Infrastructure Engineer Sopra Steria Kungsbron 13 Box 169 SE-101 23 Stockholm - Sweden Phone: +46 8 622 42 00 - Mobile: +46 70 962 71 03 gustav.ulan...@soprasteria.com www.soprasteria.se The content of this message may be confidential, legally privileged and protected by law.

Summary: - ASR1002-X with default processor and 8GB RAM is plenty for (2) full BGP feeds - if buying non-Cisco RAM, 16GB is cheap, so consider doing it now rather than later to avoid headaches - (2) full BGP feeds will be well below 1,000,000 FIB limit (which is comprised only of best routes) Besides the risk of not being able to obtain support from Cisco (and maybe being billed by them) if a problem is traced to the third-party RAM (http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/prod_warranty09186a00800b5594.h tml), does anyone see any issue with using non-Cisco RAM?

Re: [c-nsp] Cisco Nexus 9500
Hello Skeeve. We are running the smaller 9300 series platform and in our experience there is still some bugs and missing features that are still there. We are missing multihomed FEXes for instance. We have also had some issues with some features that was in the documentation but when asking TAC why the commands aren't there we where informed that the platform didn't have support for it and that they would remove it from the documentation (MP-BGP in that case). It seems that the platform isn't quite ready yet and that new features is being added with each and every new release of software. I cannot say if the same is true for the 9500 platform but I suspect it is seeing as the two are more or less the same platform as I understand it. Could be wrong on that one though.

The issue that I've had have been that the connection doesn't stay up all the time. There were some settings that I felt would help keep the card stay online (disabling idle timeouts, short delays between disconnect and reconnect, etc) however the card would still drop offline regularly even in the middle of a data transfer. It has been a couple years since I've touched that card so I don't remember all the specifics but my recollection is that after about 10 minutes the card would disconnect. Verizon claimed that they weren't doing anything of the sort. One thing that will drop the connection, by the way, is sending out RFC1918 and multicast traffic to the VZW network. I implemented egress filtering to block those types of traffic but th! e! link would still regularly drop. The TAC engineer told me that some of the commands I was trying to configure weren't actually doing anything because the support didn't exist in the IOS release I was using and he didn't think the commands would ever be supported.

The only 1000BaseT SFPs that we've gotten to work are the Cisco branded ones. Some of the other brands/manufacturers we've used have given mixed results. In one instance we had plugged in a 10/100/1000 SFP and tried connecting it to a Cisco 3750 FE port. The FE port on the 3750 would come up but it would not come up on the 3600X side. Swapping the SFP with a Cisco branded one would resolve the issue most of the time. The 3600X has proven to be one of the more finicky switches in terms of accepting non Cisco branded SFPs.

Re: [c-nsp] MTU packet loss problem 12410 XR and 6509
Hello. In ios-xr the mtu is the L2 mtu while in vanilla ios the mtu is L3 mtu. This gives that XR is including L2 headers in the mtu setting. So in reality you have matching MTUs at present but when you configure XR with an mtu of 1500 you get a mismatch. How is the etherchannel configured? Is the 6509 routing anything or are you using it as a switch?

This seems to only affect one Metro-E carrier and only when the traffic passes between the 6500 and the 12410. ME Carrier A --- 10G 6509 bundle-ether1(4G)---12410A ME Carrier B ---/ \-bundle-ether2(4G)---12410B ME Carrier C --/ Traffic that passes from either 12410 to customer links on ME carrier A are seeing MTU issues and packet loss. Traffic across those same links for carriers B and C have no issue. To test this, we can ping from from the 12410 to a site on ME carrier A with 1500byte packet size and get packet loss. The same test to clients on ME carrier B and C have no issues. Now, since no changes were made on our end and the carrier states no changes were made on their end, we are at a standstill. However, I did see that the MTU size on the 12410's is by default 1514 and the MTU on the 6500 is 1500. Changing this to match 1500 on both sides causes no traffic to pass. I'm not sure why both sides of the bundle-ether interfaces matching MTU causes 100% packet loss. Anybody have any ideas on why matching MTU size would cause no traffic to pass? Ultimately the carrier will need to fix their issue, but I would like to understand why this problem of matched MTU sizes causes no traffic.

Hello. We usually place a 1900 router with cellular modem and appropriate cellular cell plan to go with it. This usually just calls home through a DMVPN tunnel. I know it isn't fool proof but we consider it good enough.

Re: [c-nsp] Re-licensing secondhand Cisco equipment
I think the more expensive kit the more checks are performed. Also notice if you are cisco partner then you might be excluded from that if you buy second hand equipment (registered partners can only buy equipment from dists) Bästa hälsningar / Best regards, Gustav Uhlander Senior Communication Infrastructure Engineer Steria AB Kungsbron 13 Box 169 SE-101 23 Stockholm Sweden Tel: +46 8 622 42 15 Fax: +46 8 622 42 23 Mobile: +46 70 962 71 03 gustav.ulan...@steria.se www.steria.se -Original Message- From: cisco-nsp [mailto:cisco-nsp-boun...@puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of John Elliot Sent: den 10 januari 2014 01:32 To: Sander Steffann Cc: cisco-nsp Subject: Re: [c-nsp] Re-licensing secondhand Cisco equipment Hi, So, just to clarify - You can purchase refurb/secondhand Cisco kit and then purchase a smartnet contract for software access/updates(And also hardware replacement)? Maybe, but Cisco is going to charge you a lot of money for that. More money than purchasing new? Smartnet on a secondhand vs new is the same price? But you cant purchase (legally) refurb/secondhand kit and use it with the software running on it? In the EU you can always legally use the software that came with the hardware. In other parts of the world you will probably have to pay. This is based on the following pages on cisco.com: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/hw_sw_relicensing_program.html: - The embedded Cisco software that runs on the hardware-as well as Cisco standalone software-is not transferable. If you purchase used or secondary-market Cisco equipment, you must acquire a new license from Cisco before the software can be used. - Used and secondary-market equipment is not covered under the Cisco standard warranty, and you cannot place it under a Cisco service and support contract unless it is re-licensed by Cisco and has passed an inspection by Cisco We have occasionally purchased secondhand kit out of necessity (Disty's have no stock available - CE equipment..800 series etc), and we were able to smartnet them without issue, and also without being re-licensed or being inspectedIs this deemed illegal by Cisco even though they smartnet the unit based on serial numbers?

Re: [c-nsp] Re-licensing secondhand Cisco equipment
Hello mark. What I meant was the more expensive kit as in higher range platforms (6500/7600 platform for instance). There seems to be some checks done when you as a partner buy smartnet for those platforms.
