Subject: (usr-tc) L2TP with Tunnel-Password
From: Donald Baud <dbaud@bigfoot.com>
Date: 2000-07-01 07:00:59
I am trying to use the Radius Tunnel-Password attribute in order to control the usage of the L2TP tunnels open by the HARC. I managed to set up a tunnel with two HARC's 5.0.9 acting as LAC and LNS. But I can't seem to enable the Tunnel-Password feature. Here is my setup: On the LAC side: The Radius Server authenticates the users with: Framed-Protocol = PPP Tunnel-Server-Endpoint = 192.168.100.10 Tunnel-Type = L2TP On the LNS (192.168.100.10) side: The call arrives and is authenticated as a PPP call. Now if I want to use a Tunnel secret, I made sure both LAC/LNS have the same "System Transmit authentication name": set system transmit_authentication_name HiPer I add a Tunnel-Password = MyPassword to the Radius profile on the LAC, and set up an extra account on the LNS called HiPer with: add user HiPer set tunnel user HiPer password MyPassword type L2TP security None Syslog reports the following: The LNS first complains: Unauthenticated message from HiPer The LAC then sends: Could not contact 192.168.100.10 The protocol monitor shows the Call being setup from the LAC and the LNS responding with a call disconnect immediately. Has anyone been able to set up HARC as an LNS with Tunnel-Password ?

We'll be selling all of our total control chassis and modems at the end of August. I haven't been keeping track of the value of these things, but here's a brief list. 5 Chassis 16 Hiper DSP of course the NMC comes with the chassis and I can sell pieces. Anyone interested in reserving these units for purchase once they are replaced, please email me off list.
Subject: (usr-tc) USB ISDN Terminal Adapters?
From: Tim Huffman <timh@jorsm.com>

Hi, as a solution for one of our clients, we are considering using a USB ISDN Terminal adapter, since the bus speed on serial cards does not allow full 128K throughput. Does anybody know of a good USB ISDN Terminal Adapter? How stable are they, and do they play nice with the Total Control stuff? -Tim _______________________________________________________________ Tim Huffman--------------JORSM Internet, Regional Internet Services Sr. Technical Support----7 Area Codes in Chicagoland and NW Indiana timh@jorsm.com-----------100 Mbps+ Connectivity, 56K-DS3, V.90, ISDN (219)322-2180------------Quality Service, Affordable Prices http://www.jorsm.com-----Serving Gov, Biz, Indivds Since 1995 ________________________________________________________________ �

Might want to also consider the Turbocom Serial card from Pacific Dataware.

Yes, I know that a serial card would be another solution, however it doesn't meet our needs.

I keep seeing a problem occassionaly with users not being able to login. According to my radius logs below, it appears that the password is arriving corrupt in some way.

We have seen the same thing. To fix it we have created a "dummy" login that we have them try. IF this works we then have them changeback to their old login, retyping the User ID and password. It seems to fix it almost every time.

Previously there had been some problems with negotiated MTU sizes.. IE ARC used MTU X Windows used MTU Y. Look in the archived for MTU... I think that Windows can't properly negotiate MTU size... or can't handle MTU mismatches.

Subject: (usr-tc) SNMP Guidance
From: Scot Desort <scot@njaccess.net>
Date: 2000-07-07 21:55:27
I'm reaching out to the list for a little help with SNMP. I am really green with it, and was wondering if anyone knows of some good resources -- books, online, whatever, regarding SNMP. I need to setup some thorough monitoring of my TC gear, as well as my Cisco stuff. In addition, I will need something to capture traps. I have a Linux box that I play with, but don't know enough to use SNMP with it. We are primarily an NT shop, so preferably something that runs on NT. I know there's SNMPC, but there must be something out there that's not so pricey. Any suggestions? Email off-list if you wish. Thanks, -- Scot

We use the routers extensively, but in the one case where we attempted to use the TA it failed. NetGear tech support had no explanation for the difference. We lost the customer to an Ascend based ISP because they wouldn't let us change out the modem. We stronlgy discourage consideration of this device.

There's a version of traceroute that'll give the ASN for each hop -- try digging through the source code for that to get what you want.

From: Brian <signal@shreve.net>

Nello all! It has been a while since I have participated on this list, I have been very busy, hopefully I will be more active once again. I have a few questions. Right now, and for the longest time, we are running: ARC: 4.1.22 HDM: 2.0.51 What seems to be the general concensus on what the latest very stable code is to run? We aren't using OSPF yet (becuase it was never stable enough in past releases), but would be very interested in doing so, if we could at leat gain that. Also would be interested in gaining more compatibility with modems if the dsp code is indeed better code.

Increasing the MTU size is not a good thing. I would suggest that you set the MTU on the HiPer arc to 576 and do not change anything on the client side. This should fix the issue. Also if this problem is only on the Quad or the DSP alone then check your PPP settings on the ARC - you want to see if PPP on the modem is enabled or disabled.

With Path MTU Discovery being as flaky as it is on today's Internet, dropping the MTU in the middle or the end of an end to end Internet path is not a Good Thing. What you probably want to do is set the MRU setting on the Arc to 576...but since I don't know if there's any mechanism to actually do that (I don't see a Framed-MRU value in RADIUS, and if you're getting authentication through PAP or CHAP, that would be too late anyway), you may just have to diddle with the registry on the windows machines to drop it down...not fun, I know. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456

Why the >> change? >Windows operating system has issues with higher MTU values, they do not >negotiate MTU properlly. OK...let's clarify here...'cause I'm not sure. Does windows have problem with *sending* or *receiving* large packets (or both?) The reason that I ask is that you seem to be using "MTU" for both sending and receiving packets. Keep in mind that "MTU" means "Maximum Transmission Unit", meaning that its the largest size packet that the host will *send*...it has nothing to do with how large of a packet that the host is willing and able to receive. You could easily have a host with an MTU of 276 that is still willing and able to receive packets of size 1500. >By setting a lower MTU, you are forcing the sending end to fragment the >packet. Yeah, and with PMTUD being a crap-shoot at best on the Internet, forcing the sending end to fragment the packet is a crap-shoot at best. What if the sending server is behind a LocalDirector or some other load balancing device...all of a sudden, PMTUD doesn't work and you're client on that connection can't transfer any data from that site.

Subject: (usr-tc) Debugging ISDN / Ports
From: Scott Kupferschmidt <scottk@jadetech.com>
Date: 2000-07-15 19:54:35
Hey all. I have a problem that maybe someone can help me out with. Right now we're using a USR TotalControl (NETserver) that has 48 V.90/ISDN ports, currently only using up to 24 of them (due to 1 PRI). We never come close to filling up all the ports, so getting on is never a problem. Lately for the past couple of months my ISDN (multilinked) to the TC has been dropping for no apparant reason. I remember when I first hooked up my ISDN, I was able to stay connected for 16 days straight, and now it's rare to say connected more than a day or two. My last connect time was 4 days, before it dropped off. I'm almost confident it is the telco causing me so many problems, which only makes since. I have replaced/tested 3 different pieces of equipment, even at remote locations. All equipment tests fine from other locations, but just gives me problems at home. Currently I've called in trouble tickets on my line, the telco says everything is fine, it's my equipment that's bad, etc. Blah blah they don't know what they're talking about. Due to the line dropping and redialing so much (my connection is suppose to be damn near permanent if power is on), I've received massive phone bills that I'm expected to pay. What I'd really like to know is if the USR TC has some type debugging of why a disconnect occurs, etc? Our other modem pool (a Bay Networks Annex) has a feature called 'histcall' where you can find out just about anything. Unfornautely due to my network I cannot dial into that pool, as it isn't smart enough (yet) to route different subnets as well. The logfile the USR TC makes over syslog isn't descriptive enough. For the curious, the current version running on the USR TC is: Command> version U.S. Robotics Total Control (tm) NETServer Card V.34/ISDN with Frame Relay V3.8.1 Build date: Aug 11 1998 Build time: 13:49:21 Network Interface Card: Ethernet & Frame Relay Combination (26) ISDN Interface Card : MUNICH32 (4) Packet Bus Circuit : Standard Any information/help anyone can give me is greatly appreciated. I'm just looking to find out whats wrong with my line without paying dearly for it, and just continue service without disruptions. Thanks, Scott

*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* Hello there. I've two netservers running 3.8.1 and quad modem (analog/digital) with 5.10.9 and above. Well, The first netserver recognizes all the quad modem cards on its chassis (15 cards), but the netserver can't authenticate users via radius (then I've to put all the users in the chassis.... nasty... but was the only solution for the auth problem). I use Radiator radius authentication server 2.15. The other netserver has only 8 quad cards on its chassis, but the netserver cannot see those cards. How do I tell netserver to recognize those cards?.

I would hope that 3Com is smart enough to follow this list and pick up on our collective frustration at the 3Com support contracts folks. If they are serious about making a run of the TC system they had best get it in gear. In the past year we have acquired several other smaller ISPs. I am working to move them from a mixture of platform (PM2, PM3, Bay 5399, Ascend, etc) to TC. But with the level of support 3Com is offering it is a hard sale. We are fortunate to have support from Source Technology and Intelligent Choice, but if they are our best help we are in serious trouble...

When I use the CLI, the command 'set user adm password xxxx' takes, I do a save all, and the old password is still active. If I try to use HARM, I get a message stating "cannot edit a user with type MANAGE" 2 - I need to delete a different user in NVRAM that is also type MANAGE.

I would gladly pay for the support if it had the level of expertise and response time you get with Cisco when you call with a network down emergency. The cool grand I paid Cisco on my border router paid off on the first shot out of the barrel because of direct answers and minimal downtime, not to mention followup. 3Com wanted a lot more than that with no improvement in the support. It is cheaper for me to wait for a part to 'fail' and buy a new one from a var that has a clue and get the install support to resolve the 'failure'. There are a lot of 'free' options out there but my experience is that 'free' means don't call me if it doesn't work.

I think that at this point this list is not really monitored. There were a number of folks here in the past (Krish, Mike... ?) that actually participated, but I'm guessing they either left the company or are instructed not to give away "free" support anymore. I think that overall this list has dwindled down to a few die-hard folks and that's it. In the past you could post a "hey, how does everyone like v.blah.foo code?" and get a string of responses. These days, well... Part of that is probably due to the fact that the code has gotten a bit better, and part having to do with market share. It should be embarrasing to the 3Com folk that their modems still don't connect worth a crap to most internal Mac modems (with the exception being the discontinued Quad cards). The only thing I've seen from 3Com people lately were posts from a few green field or sales tech guys asking about how to turn the chassis on or something along those lines. In short, bringing up 3Com "corporate issues" here is probably a waste of time these days... Perhaps the 3Com message boards are where everyone's at now?

Ved- I am using the read/write SNMP community. I can write other changes to the HARC via HARM, such as creating new routes, changing RADIUS info, etc. So if I have permissions to do these other tasks, I should have the permissions to change passwords. But I do not think it is a permissions problem - I should be able to change the password on 'adm'. Regarding the other user I am trying to delete - I don't even know what a MANAGE-type user is, or how it got to be that way.

This was a bug in Harm, it goes back to the days when you could not delete the adm user, at that time the Harm did not allow you to change password on adm.

OK - I've already tried that. Telnetted to HARC: set user adm password xxx save all logout login - still using old password.

Found out what the problem was -- I was telneted into the HARC from some other location, logged in as adm. The system would not read the new password until I logged that telnet session out. I was able to use 'set adm password xxx', save all, log the other session out, then login with the new password.

Hi-- Other than these messages, the ARC's I have that were upgraded are working great. Heck, 4.2.32 worked/s great too. Only issue I really have is that we're getting a whole slug of alarm server informational messages (and would as well if we were using other SNMP tools I'm sure) since the upgrade. Message: 156.46.x.x; Card Removed from slot 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.2.2.0 Severity informational. The 156.46 IP at the front is our syslog host as well as a DNS server (looking for where this could come from) as set in the ARC; Obviously we AREN'T removing cards; surely the string of numbers is an SNMP reference to something-- So, anyone else seen this? Know how to make 'em go away? What is that SNMP reference, anyway? Thanks! Scott M.

Subject: (usr-tc) Netserver Card does not send/use the appropiate secret for accounting.
From: Sergio Gonzalez <sagonzal@sky.net.co>
Date: 2000-07-19 12:32:56
*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(tm) Pro* Hello everyone. Can somebody help me with a little problem?. I have a Netserver Card with 3.8.1 into a TC Chassis. It handles 15 Quad Analog/digital modems. The authentication with Radius (Radiator) works well. The problem is when the netserver send the Accounting data for every dial-up user, the secret does not match or the netserver simply does not send the appropiate one, causing the radius server to drop the accounting packets. Any ideas how to solve this?

Looks like your using the "Alarm Server". It is unsupported by 3Com and doesnt understand Traps from the HARC (Written before HARC existed). You are getting either RADIUS auth fail or SNMP auth fail that the Alarm Server prints as Card Insert.

Thanks much for the response--not surprising. Not surprising either is that even though Alarm Server is unsupported, they won't release the source code on it. Sure, it's a peice of !@#$% of a program, but for our uses it's not that bad. I wish I could have about 2 days with the code and I'd be plenty happy. Can't BE that much code in it. Okay, 3Com, reality being what it is, any reasonable solutions anyone's using? We are using TKINED but have not yet had the patience to whack through and figure out how to get traps going with all the right messages.... SMT

Hi, You should have a look at the radiator list (http://www.starport.net/~radiator). If I remember correctly, you need a "IgnoreAcctSignature" or something similar in your client statements for the Netserver. Regardless, a search there should point you to the correct answer.

You'll need a HiPer ARC router card installed in the chassis to do multicast. The Netserver router card has no multicast capability. Multicast is disabled by default on the HiPer ARC. To turn it on you do something like: set ip multicast proxy interface eth:1 set ip igmp eth:1 multicast_forwarding enabled set network user default igmp multicast_forwarding enabled set network user default igmp multicast_proxy enabled set network user default igmp routing enabled This seems to work for users wishing to receive multicast via dialup. I haven't yet tested whether this also allows users to source multicast via dialup.

The card has 16mb of flash. The other cards had hardware version 15.0.0 whereas this one has hardware rev 19.0.0. The "list file" is shown below. There are quite a few deleted sectors, but it looks like there would be enough free sectors unless it is fragmented somehow. I could try rebooting the card to cleanup the flash file system and/or load the interim code. Then it should work. (I'm an optimist):). Being that it is Friday, and I will be taking a few days of vacation next week, and it is working as is, I will probably not do anything more with it until late next week. I don't like to break things just before vacation.

We are looking at buying a TNT Max unit. It will replace some 3Com Total Control units and a couple of Portmaster 3 units. We don't have any experience with these to date and wondered if any of you might share what your experience has been comparing the different types of dialup servers. What is the support like, the compatibility of the modems, etc? Our prime interest is that we will be getting lines via SS7 signaling and we understand the Max units can deal with that pretty easily.

Is there a way to have the HiperArc "segregate" deal with a special group of users, so that all it allows them to do is httpd services? THe reason for asking is, that AOL is not a local dialup for people in this area and they "piggyback" us to get to AOL via the Internet. What I would like to do is assign then a user ID like aolusername and then have the HiperArcs "filter" the accounts with the aol PREFIX and then only allow the connection to AOL. I do not want them to have access to pop, ftp or news on our network at all since we are providing the dialup for AOL. Does any of this make any sense ? Would like any comments and/or suggestions on how we might handle this.

It's totally possible. Since we use radiator as our radius server (http://www.open.com.au/radiator/), I'll use that as an example. You would define a filter on all your arcs that only allows access to the "AOL port" (see webmaster.aol.com for details on how AOL works) and give it a name such as "aolfilter". You could then mark all of these users as AOL users in whatever authentication scheme you use as AOL users (the simplest example would be making a unix group called "aoluser"). Radiator, and likely other radius servers, could then have a rule that states "if a user logs in and is in group 'aoluser', send a filter-id in this request for 'aolfilter'". That's it in a nutshell. The arcs allow filters on a per user basis to be set in radius replies...
