Re: [swinog] vtx ADSL /30 subnet practice

nearly same story as sdsl before, 
VTX used 2 IP out of the customer /29 range  for the wan link.
Traceroute looked funny, not to mention how that improved icmp Trouble 

Cheers ...

First usable, 01.


Some devices allow you to use network/broadcast addresses too and  
this is not a problem for the LNS (you will understand because of the  
strange routing at the end of the mail)

However, not all do, so using the +1 IP seems the best option.

The typical setups you can have in Switzerland are:


ISP  ppp fixed/dynamic ip  ADSL with nat --- LAN private IPs
(no need to explain anything here)


ISP --- ppp with subnet other than /32 --- ADSL with multinat ---  
LAN private IPs
AFAIR, Multinat is the term used by ZyXEL. It means you have multiple  
IPs on the WAN side, however you get assigned only one but you still  
can do NAT entries for the other IPs of the subnet.



ISP --- ppp with fixed/dynamic IP --- ADSL routed --- LAN with  
public range


This is the normal routed case. I think this is what Daniel was  
looking for. If VTX does not offer this, I know other ISPs that do it  
(hmmm for example I do :P)


spamWe offer all three possibilities./spam

Perhaps for a better understanding of the curious, I can show the  
differencies in the radius,



The classic fixed IP:

Framed-IP-Address = 1.2.3.4 # WAN IP
Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255 # WAN MASK


The classic routed range:

Framed-IP-Address = 1.2.3.4 #WAN IP
Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255 # WAN MASK
Framed-Route = 2.3.4.0/24 # LAN PREFIX

And finally the MultiNAT way (I find it kinda ugly..)

Framed-IP-Address = 1.2.3.129 # WAN IP
Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.248 # WAN MASK
Framed-Route = 1.2.3.128/25

The route here seems useless, but it is not. The Cisco takes a PPP  
client with a /32 mask, overriding the Framed-IP-Netmask. Therefor  
you have to route the other IPs to the customer. The netmask seems  
useless if the cisco ignores it, but you still need to send it  
because the PPP device (ZyXel, netscreen, whatever) really cares  
about it ;-)


lns01.xxx#show ip route vrf xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.65
Routing entry for xxx.xxx.xxx.65/32
  Known via connected, distance 0, metric 0 (connected, via  
interface)

  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * directly connected, via Virtual-Access328
  Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1

lns01.xxxb#show ip route vrf xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.64
Routing entry for xxx.xxx.xxx.64/29
  Known via static, distance 1, metric 0
  Redistributing via ospf xxx
  Advertised by ospf xxx subnets route-map xxx
  Routing Descriptor Blocks:
  * xxx.xxx.xxx.65
  Route metric is 0, traffic share count is 1


I hope it helped anyone to understand this...

But perhaps they are confused now ;-)

Pascal

Dear Daniel, and all,

Yes, I confirm if you order a /30, /29, /28, etc to VTX, the first IP of the 
subnet is assigned to the CPE with the right mask associated.

  This setup works on Cisco and Zyxel ADSL as the WAN interface is using 
  the IP from the LAN side and the LNS sees both a /32 and a /30 
  route...not sure about other xDSL CPEs though (o;

I confirm, this setup works on most of the CPE. For exemple with a /30 you have 
one IP for your LAN gateway and one usable. That's normal, it's a /30. :)


Have a nice day,
Jerome

 In this setup, the PPP endpoint address of the CPE router is 
 the same as it's LAN address, and the customer still gets his 
 /30 network to use as expected, i.e. there's an address left 
 for, say, a server.
 
 In the vtx case (if correct), there is nothing of the /30 
 left to the customer to use, except the WAN address assigned 
 via PPPoX.  Granted, this does not sound very sane, since the 
 customer pays for a /30 which he does not get.
 
 Maybe the vtx engineers just had bad luck explaining the 
 above to the customer.

We have on ADSL an /24
The Broadcast adresses  xx.xx.xx.0 and xx.xx.xx.255 arn't to take
And the xx.xx.xx.1 is for the Router this is correct.

If the costumer are useing 4 IP's he must book 8 IP's than he can use 5 IP's
This is normal...

or if you have a capable adsl router, you can nat all four addresses to
internal server addresses

this seems like a wierd setup... so for each /30 customer they would
set up one of the four ip addresses on the interface of their provider router?

I don't know about current practice, but older vtx (ex-tiscali, to be precise),
the practice was to get an unrelated ip on the wan interface.

On a cybernet 4-IP-Addresses ADSL setup I can actively use the two
middle IPs in a BRouter setup, the router using the lower address. 

The vtx setup you describe is indeed kind of useless. If it's truth
then I guess the vtx people need an update on best practice
recomendations.
