[c-nsp] Cisco AS5400 SIP Trunk dialup modem pool

for the AS5400. Does anyone know if I could run SIP directly to the AS5400 and have it terminate the calls into the modem pool? (PPP/ RADIUS/ IP)? My only other option is to port the numbers out and/or reconfigure the few remaining customers to use another dialup provider. -Matt -- Matthew Crocker

802.1x provides Ethernet (layer 2) access control. You enable it on your switch ports and all Ethernet devices need to authenticate. Using Radius you can assign authenticated users to various VLANs etc. Your devices need to support 802.1x in order to authenticate but most modern

Nathan, It sounds like what you want to do should be possible. I'm not sure if the 7206 can do it or not. I'm pretty sure a Redback SE-400 can do it. You need to unwrap the layers of the onion... Build a Bridge group on the 7206 and attach each PVC to it. That should create one

Doesn't the 10k use Ciscos FPGA chips (aka PXF)? So if a feature isn't in the FPGA code it gets punted to the main CPU and performance goes to hell? Isn't Cisco doing away with all the routers based off the FPGA code? NSE-100, 7301, NSE-1 *very* fast when the packets can be handled in

AutoQoS doesn't perform any voodoo to the config and the results are pretty well documented in the IOS docs. Basically it sets the switch ports to trust the DSCP or CoS values and then builds the appropriate DSCP to queue table. Your VoIP packets need to be marked with the proper DSCP
