Happens here too particularly when the TCS is idle for long periods of time (ie. no calls for days). It only happens on TCS at the tail end of our dialup hunt group. I've never quite figured out what causes it.

Hi, What happens if you highlight the ports in TCM and do a full "restore from default, HW flow control default, save to nvram, software reset" on all of them?

No the netserver card is the router like the arc is the router.

The NMC card actually can route between the wan ports and ethernet port on the NMC NIC card, at least minimal routing, though I don't know anyone who has ever taken advantage of that. It definitely will not be able to handle the routing of data to and from modems or see the modems as interfaces or anything, so you're SOL in that area which is what it sounds like you need. :) -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456

My guess is this is their response to the "no v.90 on Quads" thread. This is much better than the trade-in program they were just running until the end of April. That one got you $25/port ($100 per Quad card). This one is at least twice as good. Which sucks for me since I just traded in my Quads on the older program, and now I'll only get $1200 instead of $2400 back.

Customer logs in ARC chassis and gets assigned a static IP 63.166.56.52. ARC chassis IP is 205.198.244.x He gets authenticated but can't go anywhere. I ask him what his default gateway is and it is his ISDN terminal: 63.166.56.52 He can't set a default gateway on his machine - Windows 2000 Enterprise server - do he is probably getting assigned one from the ARC and guess what - it is an IP address from the 205 network. Question: Can you have 2 default gateways on a chassis and assign both to customers? Or is it better to but a static route in? Thanks, Kevin - Tucker Communications, Inc

We've been satisfied with ours. We've found it to be stable. We're under a support contract and have found the technical support to usually be very good to outstanding. I would like to see more documentation. We're considering attending one of the multi-day training sessions.

That sounds about right for a 24 hour tech support/hotswap/software policy for a TC 1000 with 2 DSP cards. Note that the price goes by $350 per HyperDSP card in the chassis and you do not have the option to pick and choose which cards are covered and which are not. It's an all-or-nothing deal. With that structure the cost could get to be quite a bit if you had alot of cards. I've heard that some of the bigger ISPs negotiate the price down. I'd be interested in getting feedback from anyone who has attended the 3Com classes on the TC Chassis/HyperArc/HyperDSP cards. I think they're 3 days classes in Chicago and cost about $2,500.

We have generally been satisfied with ours, but just cannot afford the support. It looks like we are going to be getting rid of most of our modems and outsourcing the dialup. We will likely retain 48 ports to use locally for hard cases. The cost of purchasing the service from someone else vs. paying through the nose for software upgrades is just too high. We keep loking for a better alternative to this plan but so far nothing has materialized. When we used tech support it was generally helpful, but too slow to be worth the money. We have not required telephone or email tech support for many months now. That does say a lot about the stability of the product. It does work, and work well.

We purchased our TC1000 through Source Technologies and the price included a full support contract for 1 year. CommWorks (3Com) has announced that companies other than 3Com (e.g., Source Technologies) will be able to provide 24x7 technical support. Perhaps the cost of support will go down once it's offered by multiple companies.

The number of DSPs makes a big difference because there is an incremental cost for every DSP. As far as I know, officially at least, there's no discount even if you have a hundred DSPs. My rep at Source Technologies is Frank Conidi and he is familiar with the TC product. I met him at ONEISPCon and he had a TC chassis there with a couple cards in it. He pulled the various cards out and explained what each one did and how the whole chassis worked together. I got a much better overview of the box from him than I was ever able to get from the 3Com booth. They also provide documentation on the initial configuration of the box. And, the purchase price includes a remote setup and testing of the unit by 3Com.

From: Scot Desort <scot@njaccess.net>

OK gang, this is new territory for me, so be gentle. I wish to route a /27 network to an ISDN dialup customer. Currently, this TC has a /24 block assigned to it for dynamic dialup. I will be using a /27 out of a different /24 block. What configuration steps do I need to take on the TC to allow it to assign this block to this dialup customer? Note that I am not running RIP. This customer will ALWAYS hit this particular TC, so there is no need to announce the route. I will manually route the block to the TC. Additionally, if anyone would like to share the appropriate radius attributes to include in this user's profile (I use VOPRadius), I'd appreciate it. TIA, -- Scot

Using this theory, clients would be able to use any routing protocol enabled on our router, as the Netserver puts them virtually on the lan. or can they only use routing protocols running on the Netserver Am I thinking straight or in need of sleep :) Aaron Marshall Morgan wrote: > > Since you will be routing them a network, not using a routing protocol to > announce it, and only have a single TC, just give them a static IP on the TC > Lan and let proxy arp do it's thing. > > TC GW 192.168.1.1 > TC IP 192.168.1.2 > TC POOL whatever > > User Static IP 192.168.1.200 (PPP WAN DEVICE IP) > User Ethernet IP 192.168.20.1 (LAN DEVICE IP) > > on GW router : > > ip route 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.224 192.168.1.200 > > (so net is 192.168.20.0/27) > > RADIUS entry : > > username Auth-Type = System > Service-Type = Framed-User, > Framed-Protocol = PPP, > Framed-IP-Address = 192.168.1.200, > Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255, > Framed-Routing = None, > Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP, > Port-Limit = 2, > Idle-Timeout = 1200, > Session-Timeout = 28800, > Framed-MTU = 1500 > > Marshall Morgan > > Internet Doorway, Inc (aka NETDOOR) > http://www.netdoor.com > > 601.969.1434 x28 | 800.952.1570 x28 | 601.969.3629 x28 | Fax 601.969.3838 > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Scot Desort" <scot@njaccess.net> > To: <usr-tc@lists.xmission.com> > Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2001 12:05 PM > Subject: (usr-tc) Routing a subnet to an ISDN dialup customer > > > OK gang, this is new territory for me, so be gentle. > > > > I wish to route a /27 network to an ISDN dialup customer.

Yeah...we might be able to get support contracts for a reasonable price now...unless the VARs are saddled with the same policies and Terms and Conditions that Al Huefner stupidly has imposed on us for 3 years now. I'll be getting in touch with CommNet Plus to find out what their situation is with this (been busy so haven't had a chance to yet). Oh...and this makes me look like a prophet! Check out the attachment...some of you on this list may remember this exchange. There are several things in here that make me sound prophetic I think. :) Let's see, we have: 3Com management not paying attention to the usr-tc list and the issues that are raised there, until it becomes a crisis situation...check. Adding layers of beaurocracy when the beaurocracy is half the problem and they should be *removing* them...check. Inadequate access to software updates...check. Lack of communication to customers from 3Com management...check. Premature EOL'ing of a product and woefully inadequate upgrade path for customers...check (was NETServer -> HiPer Arc, now quads to DSPs). Incredibly screwed up support contract Terms and Conditions and policies after years of complaints from people on this list...check. Stock price virtually in the gutter...check. I'll say it again...Al Huefner needs to be fired and the support contract situation needs to be *TOTALLY* rethought from the ground up, and this time actually take into consideration the thoughts of your customers...here's a radical thought...maybe you could even *ASK* them what they think! Oh, that's right, that would actually involved the abililty of 3Com upper management to *COMMUNICATE*, and we all know *that's* not going to happen. :/ To this day, I *STILL* haven't *EVER* received *ANY* communications from *ANYONE* at 3Com other than Tom Goodman and George Ebert regarding any of the issues raised here or in direct email in the past several weeks. Bruce, Irfan, Al...if you don't have the guts to get in touch with me yourselves...at least have a secretary or something give me a call. Right now, all you've done is confirmed that you really don't care about your customers. Maybe I should start CC'ing brokerage houses...I'm sure it would help your stock price oh so much for them to find out about how much customer dissatisfaction there is among customers of this gear. I'll assume that if I don't hear from at least one of you or your offices that you really don't care about us as customers and I'll let the usr-tc list know that and start looking at alternative vendors of Access Server gear. God knows, even with the new trade-up programs, its still almost about the same amount of money for me to totally replace my TC gear with Patton gear, and that's even with fudging on the trade-up program by doing more than 10 sets of quads. >On Tue, 8 May 2001, Baron Fujimoto wrote: >> Here's a copy of the announcement we received via email: >> >> Date: Wed, 02 May 2001 11:26:22 +0500 >> From: cps_contract_administration@3com.com >> Subject: URGENT - Action Required regarding 3Com Total Control service >> contract >> >> Since the announcement of CommWorks Corporation as a wholly owned subsidiary of >> 3Com Corporation in December, 2000, our service organization has been hard at >> work to ensure that we continue to provide the highest quality services to our >> customers.

No...I didn't miss the point...I understand where you're coming from...*however*. This seems (from my perspective at least) to be a reaction to as you put it "release[ing] code 'willy nilly'". IMO, the fix isn't to put yet another layer of beaurocracy down to track it, the real fix is to have tech support be good enough at what they do, and enough information available to them (I think this second part is the killer) that they can more intelligently use ER code releases as trouble-shooting tools. This is, as you say, intended to provide a fix for those that need it, and feedback on those fixes before they're put into an SR, but putting yet another layer of beaurocracy on this just puts that much more difficulty on us, the customers actually *using* this equipment and code, from being able to make the most from it. Basically, 3Com just added yet one more layer between us, the customers, and the development process of the code, yet one more layer that insulates our feedback from the actual people making decisions about the development of the product(s). Please don't get me wrong, Todd...I'm certainly not trying to take a shot at you, or any other tech support folks. I'm taking a shot at 3Com overall, who's (corporate) reaction to things seems to be to add more beaurocracy to things where there are problems in an effort to fix them...when...at the core, at least a major component of the problems are that there's entirely too much beaurocracy already, and customers are already entirely too isolated from the development effort. > I hope this clarifies my prior statements, and I hope this helps >to clarify what could on the surface seem to be another "Stupid Policy" >that is actually just a part of the Scientific Method. Oh, I'm very clear on 3Com's thinking here...some of it even makes sense...that doesn't mean its not "another 'Stupid Policy'" though. ;) My other question still stands though...and this may be one that you, Todd, may not be able to answer, and I can understand that...but does upper management at 3Com really take us seriously? We (the users of tc equipment on this list) have constently, over the years, alerted 3Com to problem after problem, most of which were ignored until they reached epic proportions, resulted in various people threatening lawsuits, resulted in cascades of complaints from the users both on this list and in the totalservice fora. These problems are, almost invariably, not acted upon until it reached a crisis situation at 3Com and consequently took much greater effort to fix than it would have if addressed when it was first mentioned on the list. I will say that 3Com has seemed to become more responsive to actual implementation problems...ie, actually fixing bugs in code...while at the same time making it, in many cases, actually harder for the customer to get ahold of the code that makes the fixes. Security issues are still dealt with in much too slow of a manner. I reported "Yet Another(tm)" SNMP bug in the Total Control platform almost 3 weeks ago now (not yet made public...will be soon), and still haven't gotten any feedback about it. 3 weeks is *way* too long for a bug like this to exist in a known state. There should be an SR release for security issues made immediately...take the last released code...start from that base, and develop a fix for the security hole independently of your other fixes...3Com seems to have a *very* lax attitude concerning security fixes. We've been complaining about support contracts for years now...any progress there? None that I've heard of...indeed, this too has gone in the wrong direction. Used to be that you had to have equal support coverage on each card in a chassis, then you had to have it on each chassis in a location, now you have to have it on all your chassis in all your locations. This should be going the other direction! There are easily accessible serial numbers on each card (shoot, you can even pull them up in a nice clean spreadsheet format via TCM!), why not have support contracts be done on a per-card basis? Again...we here at IgLou specifically have been asking for exactly this for over a year, and the only response we have gotten from *anyone* (other than our sales rep, who agrees with us) has been a call to give us the pricing as it currently exists, they were *totally* unwilling to even *consider* that their support contract structure was sub-optimal. 3Com has *YET* to deal with the NETServer to HiPer Arc upgrade issue. They still are foisting essentially a Bait and Switch tactic on their long-time customers that have NETServer cards. 3Com has known about issues in the NETServer code base and refuses to take necessary and available steps to fix them (either replace the cards with Arcs, or back-port Pilgrim to the older cards, either would be an acceptable solution, 3Com refuses to do either), and now I've heard reports that 3Com tech support folks either don't know about this situation (broken MPIP in NETServers specifically) or don't acknowledge it as a known problem. Yeesh. I answered a post in the totalservice *.totalcontrol newsgroup just the other day telling someone that they were SOL regarding this issue because 3Com refused to stand by their product. These are the types of things that illustrate what I'm talking about...3Com would rather add more beaurocracy and hierarchy to things to try to fix it rather than step back, realize that the beaurocracy and hierarchy is largely what's standing in their way from figuring out what the real fixes are. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 --xHFwDpU9dbj6ez1V--
Subject: (usr-tc) PC-Tel modem testing (long)
From: Wayne Barber <barberw@tidewater.net>
Date: 2001-05-11 09:38:33
I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I would test different settings on the TC Hub to see if I could increase the likelihood of PC-Tel modems making good connections. Previously, the only way to reliable make them connect was to turn off v.90 via the n0s37=12 init string. My initial assumptions were questioned when I brought the computer into the office. See, we are the local phone company as well as an ISP. When I used the internal modem line to connect, the PC-Tel modem worked perfectly every time: 50k connections, never got dropped and good throughput. My new assumption was that it could be a combination of the rural phone lines and the PC-Tel modem. Perhaps it needed a stronger signal from the 3com modems. Yesterday afternoon, I got my chance to test things out. Using two phone lines from home (a major concession to work from home), I dialed in from a PC using a Lucent modem and used TCM to monitor my connections when I dialed in from my laptop with the PC-Tel modem. I tried varying transmit levels from -0 db to -20 db with no effect. I tried some other settings that I wasn't sure would make a difference or not, and they didn't. I then tried attacking the problem from the PC-Tel end. I used the init strings I found at http://www.808hi.com/56k to try limiting the speed of my connection. The init string is: n0s37=14s34=X where X can be anything from 0 to 21. The higher the number, the higher the connect speed. The full list can be found at http://www.808hi.com/56k/x2-linklimit.htm. What I found is that I could connect fairly reliably where X=7, for a speed of 37333bps. When X=8 (38666bps), I could sometimes connect but other times no data would come back to me. At higher speeds, such as 44kbps and above, the TC unit would report the connection status would remain at Link Negotiation and no data would get passed. Between 42.66k and 38.66k, the status would be OnlineAnswer but most times no data would come back from the TC hub. At those times, Radius indicated that I had authenticated correctly. So data was traveling from my modem into the TC Hub. So the answer I have so far is that, over the regular phone lines with a PC-Tel modem, if I limit the connect speed to 37,333bps, I can get a reliable connection. Over this same line, I regularly connect via my Lucent modem at 48-50kbps. The init string is: n0s37=14s34=7 n0s37=14 sets the modem to v.90 only (no K56flex) s34=7 sets the connect speed at 37,333bps It will be interesting to try this with customers and see if any can use better connect speeds. Thanks for reading this far. I'll now open the floor for comments/questions. If anyone has recommendations for other settings that might make a difference, let me know.

Hey Scott, I'll give you a hand. I've successfully gotten both single static IP's and routed subnets working through the HARC using OSPF. Are you using OSPF? If you are only using the one NAS then this is very simple, if you have multiple NAS's then you will need OSPF (RIPv2 would work, but I haven't touched it). For me getting the TCH to do what I wanted was a major PITA, mostly because 3com support was useless, and the documentation was very light in examples. So I fussed and fiddled, and gave up for a year, then dove back in and viola it started working! ;) Why don't you send me your problem via email (sorry I don't have your original post) and I will give you the run down on what I have done here, it may not exactly apply but I believe it will help you none the less. I'll give you what I have now and you can draw from that... 4) Lucent PM3 1) Lucent PM2 1) TotalControl 1) Cisco 3640 (DR for OSPF) All sit on the same Ethernet segment, 199.217.72.0/24 The Lucent NAS uses 209.102.67.0 for their IP pools, the TCH is 207.149.168.0 I use OSPF/VLSM to divy up the IP pools among the PM3's, the TCH just gets the whole class c since it has a much higher port density, the dialup modem pools are announced via OSPF, why? Because static IP customers (single or subnet) will hit different NAS's and the hardware needs to know where to send the packets, static routes don't cut it in this situation. We assign the static IP (single or subnet) via Radius, so you have to create an entry in your radius users file (this can vary depending on your Radius software) and for the TCH we have to add a "send policy" (this really had me stumped for a long time!) the PM3's just dealt with it. If you just have one NAS, then you can use static routing and be done with it, you will have to create a route in your router (which connects you to the Internet) and one in your NAS, and then create the Radius entry and your pretty much done. Here is a Livingston 2.0.1 Radius entry for a single static IP customer: joeuser Password = "its-a-secret-man!", User-Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-Address = 209.102.67.1, Framed-Netmask = 255.255.255.240, Framed-Routing = None, Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP, Framed-MTU = 1500, Session-Timeout = 28800 Here is an entry for a static subnet: joeuser2 Password = "its-another-secret!", User-Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-Address = 209.102.66.9, Framed-Route = "209.102.66.8/29 209.102.66.9 1", Framed-Routing = None, Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP, Framed-MTU = 1500 So there you go, if you ARE running OSPF let me know and I'll go into a little more detail on that end of things. Disclaimer, I'm not an expert! I look up to guys like Mike Andrews and Jeff Mcadams, they have a LOT more experience with the 3com gear than I, but I did manage to figure it out over time, by reading examples and blowing up a few things along the way (well not that bad)... :-)

Marshall- I know basic routing on a Cisco, and if I were were using a Cisco in this case, there would be no question. But I stated in my original post that I am new to the TC when it comes to how it handles routing. Reading a Cisco book is not going to help me enter commands at a HARC prompt. We run very basic single user dialup out of our TC, and now have the need to route a small network to a customer. I was hoping to get a little hand-holding from the folks on this list. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. But I honestly don't think a Cisco book is going to help me here. A little more than '"No" might have been a little more helpful to me than the Amazon link. If there is some inherent feature in IP that handles the routing of the network to the dialup customer that I do not understand, I will certainly take the opportunity to read about it and try to comprehend it. Unfortunately, time is of the essence in this situation. Since your example illustrates that no commands need to be entered on the HARC, and that proxy arp will handle everything, I will try your suggestion. Thanks again for the help. -- Scot ----- Original Message ----- Sent: Friday, May 11, 2001 4:57 PM > No. Might want to pick up the following from Amazon. > > http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1565923200/o/qid=989614459/sr=8-1/ref > =aps_sr_b_1_1/102-4104910-5894540 > > Managing Ip Networks With Cisco Routers > ISBN: 1565923200 > > Marshall Morgan > > Internet Doorway, Inc (aka NETDOOR) > http://www.netdoor.com > > 601.969.1434 x28 | 800.952.1570 x28 | 601.969.3629 x28 | Fax 601.969.3838 > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Scot Desort" <scot@njaccess.net> > To: <usr-tc@lists.xmission.com> > Sent: Friday, May 11, 2001 9:21 AM > Subject: Re: (usr-tc) Routing a subnet to an ISDN dialup customer > > > > OK, so do I need to add a route within the TC so it knows to send > > 192.168.20.0/27 to 192.168.1.200? > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Marshall Morgan" <marshall@netdoor.com> > > To: <usr-tc@lists.xmission.com> > > Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2001 4:21 PM > > Subject: Re: (usr-tc) Routing a subnet to an ISDN dialup customer > > > > > > > > In your radius example: > > > > > > > > > Framed-IP-Address = 192.168.1.200, > > > > > Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255, > > > > > > > > Doesn't this assign a single IP, 192.168.1.200 to the dialup user? > > > > > > Yes.

We here in Pakistan use E1 PRIs (30 channels per PRI). With TC1000 is it possible to use all 60 lines per chasis? I am using the following configuration Slot 1..........Dual PRI NAC Slot 2-15.........Quad Modems Slot 16.........Netserver PRI NAC Slot 17.........NMC........ In this configuration I can use only 14 modem cards or 56 ports. This wastes 4 ports per chasis. Is there any possible way to use 15th modem card ? Regards, Nauman.

Scott, Please read my original post - it contains all the necessary elements to get the job done. I have tried to be more clean in this email. You said: "What configuration steps do I need to take on the TC to allow it to assign this block to this dialup customer?" Answer is a Radius Entry (only as nothing is needed on the TC but you can if you wish do what Mike Greene stated): username Auth-Type = System Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-IP-Address = 192.168.1.200, Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255, Framed-Routing = None, Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP, Port-Limit = 2, Idle-Timeout = 1200, Session-Timeout = 28800, Framed-MTU = 1500 As well, you stated: "Note that I am not running RIP. This customer will ALWAYS hit this particular TC, so there is no need to announce the route. I will manually route the block to the TC." Answer is: So that means you do not want to announce the route via any routing method and you will be manually routing (via the Cisco I assume) the block to it (in this case) the static the customer gets from the Radius profile. Since you will be routing them a network, not using a routing protocol to announce it, and only have a single TC, just give them a static IP on the TC Lan and let proxy arp do it's thing. TC GW 192.168.1.1 TC IP 192.168.1.2 TC POOL whatever on user's machine : User Static IP 192.168.1.200 (PPP WAN DEVICE IP) - I would ask them to set their software to dynamic as you will give it to them via Radius anyway - make their setup simplier. User Ethernet IP 192.168.20.1 (LAN DEVICE IP) on GW router (assume a Cisco): ip route 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.224 192.168.1.200 (so net is 192.168.20.0/27) I hope this better explains what works in the field and how easy your setup can be. PS: I have probably been on this list as long as other active members - I even have some of David Bolen's old email marked. I would like to think I have been very helpful to many people as well both now and in the past ;-) Marshall Morgan Internet Doorway, Inc (aka NETDOOR) http://www.netdoor.com 601.969.1434 x28 | 800.952.1570 x28 | 601.969.3629 x28 | Fax 601.969.3838 ----- Original Message ----- Sent: Friday, May 11, 2001 7:17 PM > Marshall- > > I know basic routing on a Cisco, and if I were were using a Cisco in this > case, there would be no question.

Subject: (usr-tc) Fast busy signal
From: Donald Baud <dbaud@bigfoot.com>
Date: 2001-05-18 11:39:17
I am getting a recurring situation where the chassis stops taking calls and gives a fast busy signal. I have reported this issue to commworks' technical support but the technician said that since I was running a chassis with more than 5 PRI with dual 70amps, they could not guarantee anything. I would need to use 130Amps and he swiftly emailed me the 3com info bulletin about power consumption on the chassis ... I am hoping someone on the list could help me: The problem affects mostly the chassis that receives most calls (i.e. the one at the begining of the call queue). It used to happen once in a while but it now happens daily. Inventory: A chassis with dual 70amps, 1hiper arc(5.1.99-8 128Megs), 11 DSP's(2.1.9 PRI 5ESS) the Arc is running ospf and using an IP pool of 260 IP's Symptoms: I checked the syslog files and noticed that at the time of the incident, the Harc sends the following logs: ** Message: At 09:33:42, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: Deleting IGMP network before finally freeing dynamic network IPpdb ** Message: At 09:34:18, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: Deleting IGMP network before finally freeing dynamic network IPpdb [...] (Previous message was repeated 10 times) ** Message: At 09:38:48, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: ip_fwd_get_opt: no IP address available for dynamic address assignment ** Message: At 09:38:48, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: Deleting IGMP network before finally freeing dynamic network IPpdb ** Message: At 09:39:04, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: ip_fwd_get_opt: no IP address available for dynamic address assignment [..] (Previous message was repeated several times) I then noticed that an OSPF cisco neigbor complained that the interface on the HARC went down: ** Message: 85194: May 18 13:42:23.095: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on FastEthernet0/1 from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Dead timer expired At this point, all dialup customers have been disconnected from the DSP's on the chassis And I see the following syslog message from HiperArc: ** Message: At 09:43:23, Facility "Configurator", Level "INFORMATION":: HiPer system configuration complete at 5/18/2001 09:43:23 Doing a "show board crash" shows that a crash happened at 5/18/2001 09:41:43 ============================ - I don't think this is related to the number of cards in the chassis because I've seen this happen with another chassis loaded with 7 DSPs - I've tried several HARC codes. All 5.x.xx crash - The DSP's show LocalOutOfService or RemoteOutOfService on most of the PRI channels. The only way to restore them is to reboot the DSP. D Baud

I just purchased a used HiperArc, slapped it in and started poking around, the first thing I noticed was that it has half the memory as my original eg; Original ARC: DRAM = 131072 ROM = 16384 2nd ARC: DRAM = 65536 ROM = 8192 They are both of the same hardware Rev (19.0.0) Where can I find some memory modules for this card, or can I install some off the shelf stuff?

Went to our memory cabinet and found that we don't have any 128MB EDO DIMM's , lots of 128/256MB ECC PC133 memory, but the notch in the chip is about 3mm off (I think this is the voltage notch). Any ways, I'm going to just order up the right stuff from our vendor, the ROM can't be upgraded I guess since I didn't see any other slot than for the DIMM. - Mike Rock Island Communications, Inc.

Subject: (usr-tc) 3Com support plans
From: Mark Thornton <mark@corridor.net>
Date: 2001-05-23 14:06:56
I just heard from my equipment rep that the transfer of the Tech support function from 3Com to the reps is complete. He indicated that there is no change in price or types of service available. The only difference is that the service is one level removed from 3Com, which I guess is supposed to mean it will be improved. I'm not sure how this is supposed to be a good thing. If I want to pay high prices for service, I want to be able to work with the folks responsible for creating the problem. In a similar situation with Microsoft and the supposedly authorized tech groups, I have never gotten good information or support from anyone other than Microsoft. The savings was not worth the hassle, and you wound up paying to talk to MS anyway. I have had similar experiences with 'Linux' support companies. The 3Com situation is too similar for me to be comfartable with it. As it stands now we will likely outsource the modem business and put most of ours out to pasture. I will likely keep 24 to 48 lines in order to deal with specific cases that cannot be handled by the outsource provider. With that number I can afford to get them up to V.90 and have them in the same class as the outsourced modems from another vendor. Mark Thornton San Marcos Internet, Inc 512-393-5300

I did some checking myself (with CommNet Plus), and got the same information. The VARs that are on the support program will be under the same restrictions for selling support contracts that 3Com/CommWorks imposed earlier...ie, equal level of coverage on all of your equipment, have to cover all of your equipment, not just a subset. So, once *AGAIN* 3Com/CommWorks solves a problem that doesn't exist. Way to go Al Huefner, you've once again cost 3Com/CommWorks positive real revenue without any gain.

Makes me glad I don't own any 3Com stock. A company that committed to screwing their own best advocate and field support agent is definitely out to screw me. I can't really see how anyone can actually rep them at this point and maintain any sense of integrity. Aside from the poor attitude that fostered the obvious filter, consider the dumb-ass that was too challenged to at least configure their server to swallow the message into a black hole rather that make it obvious that someone is being filtered.

I see I created some interest in this one! :-) Here are the spec's, if you want to wait a couple days (I have not gotten my chip yet) to see if it does indeed work correctly I will post the results here... But at 150.00 approx, it may be worth the gamble to just go for it... You want the following: 168-pin 128MB EDO DRAM DIMM (5 volt) the difference between the normal DIMM chips is the voltage notch, 3.3v and 5v are slightly off by about 3mm. I'm sure Ingram, or Tech Data would carry it too, I didn't bother to check on our Ingram source, I just called Equus Computers (they have offices in 14 states) we get nearly 70% of our PC clones and parts from them. - Mike Rock Island Communications, Inc.

(I have 2 hiper arc cards, one new just now >'burning in' with 128M) Heh, good question! I'm just now getting my 2nd ARC (in same chassis) setup, but I have many unanswered questions as to how to really integrate this into the system, how much of the config is identical to the primary ARC? I would assume pretty much all of it with exception to the Ether:1 interface IP settings, and probably some OSPF stuff... The other thing I've been pondering is, what is the purpose of the 2nd ether port on the ARC, can anybody give me a good example of why/how or what benefits would be realized by utilizing it? I saved the config from the primary ARC via HARM and was going to try and "restore" that config to the secondary, but was wondering if I did that and the IP address was also applied what would go awry in the way of routing? I've poked around in the docs, looked around the web for some examples but haven't found anything as of yet. Maybe somebody here may chime in with some examples or explanation of some good configs to consider... hello anybody? :-) - Mike Rock Island Communications, Inc.

Man, your some kind of terrorist! Maybe guys will come in a 'short bus' to rough you up? Can you imagine how giddy the guys in the 'security group' must be? Of course this begs the question what they are securing. It is obvious the company has no value, intends to have no value, intended to piss of customers, intended to blow off support, and generally help their reps recommend other equipment providers. BTW, don't you just love it when that happens? They try to sell you on crap from company #1 and then when you get sick of that they comiserate with you and open the other side of their coat and offer replacements.

OK... 3Com has cancelled a post of mine in the totalservice user forums (news server access)... Posted a mention to the RAS group that the post had been cancelled. Few minutes later, I start getting timeouts on trying to connect to the totalservice news server. So I call the 888 number for the Rolling Meadows location, punch 1 (voice-mail directory), and punch in the name Laureys, for Lance Laureys and get connected to Mr. Laureys who seems to be the person at 3Com that runs the news server (his account was the account that posted the cancel message). (This narrative is from memory, so almost assuredly not exact quotes, but the gist of it is here) I asked Mr. Laureys why it is that I couldn't connect to the news server. Lance: How did you get my phone number? Me: I used the voice-mail directory system. (888)662-5010, option 1, spell the last name of the person you want Lance: Oh...well...how did you get my name? Me: Posts in the Totalservice User Forums Lance: Oh...well...your network has been blocked by our security group for telnet'ing to zircon, and for posting inappropriate material in various places.

Today I took delivery of Cisco AS5400s and 1 AS5300 (40 PRIs total). I got my mojo back :-) The support we received from both our vendor and Cisco directly during the eval period with a loaner AS5300 was nothing less than stellar.

Subject: (usr-tc) [Fwd: V.92: USR/3Com blows random quadrupeds]
From: Ronald Kushner <ron@glis.net>
Date: 2001-05-26 00:32:50
Found this on a newsgroup tonight. Any thoughts? -Ron -------- Original Message -------- Organization: And Now This Newsgroups: chi.internet I hadn't been paying any attention to this until just now, but it looks like 3Com/USR has been f--king up royally when it comes to making its analog modems compatible with V.92. First of all, most owners of USR V.90, x2, and V.34 modems, even late models, are just plain SOL with regard to flash-ROM upgrades, because relatively few existing USR modems will be upgradeable to V.92. That includes the Courier V.everything external, model 2806, of which 3Com has sold zillions and which still appears to be a current product (at least it's shown on the USR web site, with a list price). It seems that for most customers, USR's response is going to be "Sorry, but you'll have to buy a new modem instead." Of course, they'll probably give you a $50 trade-in allowance on your perfectly good $250 modem. Assholes. Second, apparently 3Com or USR has decided not to implement V.44, the better compression algorithm that supersedes V.42bis and that was approved along with V.92. USR is doing V.92, but not V.44. Third, there's at least one bad bug in one 3Com V.92 product, the Sportster model 5686. All of this is from Richard Gamberg's fabulously good modem pages at <http://808hi.com/56k/>. Specifically: V.92 news & updates: <http://808hi.com/56k/v92s.htm> USR V.92 bug: <http://808hi.com/56k/v92bug.htm> Additional questions for USR: <http://808hi.com/56k/v92q.htm> More on USR V.92 upgrades: <http://808hi.com/56k/v92usrc.htm> V.92 overview & background: <http://808hi.com/56k/v92.htm> Fortunately, V.92 shouldn't be that big a deal, because it doesn't contain anything that's really essential for most people. So judging by what I've seen so far, if you have a USR V.90 modem, you should probably stick with it and not try for V.92 unless you really need call waiting or the 48kb/s upstream speed. And keep in mind that you may never get V.44 from USR at all. So when it comes to V.92 modems, a different manufacturer probably deserves your business more than USR does at this point. Which is something I never thought I'd say. (I bought my first USR modem in 1990, and I've been a fan of Couriers forever.) BTW, on the earlier subject of badly-designed web sites that have too much flash, too many large images, and not nearly enough substance, I have to say that <http://www.3com.com> takes the grand prize. I hadn't known that usr.com is still the place to go for information, manuals, and downloads for USR modems, so a few days ago I tried 3com.com first. What a totally f--ked-up site. That gets my nomination for an award for the most bloated, useless, annoying, pointless, and time-wasting corporate web site in existence. The consultants who constructed that huge pile of shit should be taken out and shot, pro bono publico. I mean, *everything* is wrong with it. If you use a high-bandwidth connection then you might not notice it so much, except for the extreme difficulty of actually finding any information among the site designer's collection of vacation photos. But try it from a dialup connection if you want to get the full effect. Man, what a nightmare.
Subject: Re: (usr-tc) Routing a subnet to an ISDN dialup customer
From: Scot Desort <scot@njaccess.net>
Date: 2001-05-29 22:58:33
Marshall / Mike Green- Well, I did not fair too well today trying to get the client in question functioning. Client is now using a Cisco 776M ISDN router. Their Netopia was having ISDN problems. First I tried your suggestion Marshall. I simply assigned the customer a static WAN IP through a radius profile, assigned that IP to the WAN link in their Cisco, and setup their LAN netblock. The router connects and authenticates fine, the router can ping out to the TC, and the TC can ping the static WAN IP. But a client on the remote LAN cannot ping beyond the Cisco router, and we could not ping into the client LAN IP's. Per your instructions, no route commands were entered on the TC, since you indicated that proxy arp would take care of it. Since that didn't work, I issued this command to the TC: add ip route <cust-netblock/netmask> gateway <static-WAN-IP> metric 1 No effect. I then tried Mike Green's approach. I assigned a static WAN IP through their radius profile, and included a framed route atrribute: Framed-Route <cust-netblock/netmask> <static-WAN-IP> 1 I also entered the same 'add ip route' statement into the TC. Same effect - we could only ping back and forth between the router and the TC using the WAN IP. When I issued a 'list ip routes" command at the TC, it showed the following <cust-netblock/netmask> NetMgr <static-WAN-IP> 1 <slotx:modx> I contacted Cisco who telnetted into the 776 to see if all was setup OK. After many hours, it is their best guess that something is wrong with the routing in the TC. If we turn on NAT in the 776, all stations on the customer LAN can browse since they are now being masked behind the static WAN IP, which is routing properly. I have all of my internal routers configured properly to route the customer's netblock to the TC through static route statements. All traceroutes from the outside show proper transit until the TC. The last good hop is the TC's ethernet port, then it dies. If either of you (or anyone else for that matter) has any ideas, I'll try anything at this point. All of our dedicated ISDN customer's with public LAN netblocks come into BRI cards in our Cisco routers, so this has always been a no-brainer on the Cisco's. We use Verizon ISDN Centrex for these customers delivered over standard BRI lines because our normal dialup PRI's that come into the TC are provided by a CLEC, and we can't get ISDN Centrex through them for our customers.

Subject: Re: (usr-tc) Routing a subnet to an ISDN dialup customer
From: Mark Thornton <mark@corridor.net>
Date: 2001-05-30 09:29:24
The only thing I do at our end to configure a static subnet for a client is to enter the client router's ip address into the user table along with the client's subnet mask. I do not enter anything in the framed-route field. My TC's are configured to share RIP routes with each other, but not the core Cisco router (had problems overloading the router at 30 second intervals before). The Cisco directs traffic to each chassis by static routes. Nothing fancy going on and it works. Other than adding the customer to the user table and creating a static route in the core router everything else is done at the client side. I've used NetGear, Ascend, Cisco, Netopia, and WebRamp routers on the client side with this configuration, and probably a few I haven't been told about.

Just a side note, You can not delete a pool that is in use, and I believe you can not modify either.

Further research reveals it is MAC memory, ie; DIMM's used in several of their server lines. We took the original unit out of the ARC (which had an IBM part number on it) and cross referenced it, came up with the MAC compatibly listing. So I guess if the middle key is the voltage notch, then it is 3.3v since standard 168pin memory had the notch in the same position, it was the notch on the end (10 pins over from the edge) that was off from the original chip in the ARC...

Also sprach Terry Kennedy >you have to delete the pool I think in this case because a pool called >pool1 exists. Shouldn't *have* to since its a set command (changes an already existing entry) rather than an add command (add a new entry to a table), but there may be problems with modifying active entries in a table like that. I'm not sure...haven't mucked about with this in quite some time. I do know that there is no problem with just defining a new pool (add ip pool ....) for the rest of the IP addresses that aren't covered by the pool already in there. The Arc will handle having multiple pools without any trouble whatsoever. Default setting is to round-robin the usage of addresses, so the addresses will get used from both eventually, even without all lines being in use. Indeed, there are some benefits to splitting up the pools anyway...you can disable individual pools and move IP addresses around (as people log off and free up the addresses in the disabled pool) without disrupting your service and stuff like that. >-----Original Message----- >From: owner-usr-tc@lists.xmission.com >[mailto:owner-usr-tc@lists.xmission.com]On Behalf Of Michael J.

As DIMMs for computers are typically unbuffered, my guess is that 3COM used a buffered 3.3v DIMM then. Still able to get via normal memory channels I would think.

If I could get the aggregate >to work the way I think it should I would be happy. You might be better off letting your next hop handle the aggregation. Aggregates never worked the way I (personally) thought they should on the Arcs. I was always of the idea that combining network aggregation with IP pool definitions was a bad idea. I always thought they should have defined IP pools, and then handled aggregation of routes in a seperate control area, but, 3Com has a history of not listening to me, so here we are. :) >I have version 4.1.59 on the ARC so am stuck with RIP. :( My suggestion would be to go ahead and let the Arc advertise out everything as individual routes. Let your next hop (cisco?) pick up those rip routes (hint: passive-interface in IOS is your friend!) and redistribute them and/or aggregate them into the routing protocol of your choice, in the manner of your choosing. This is what I do. Despite being on new enough code to have OSPF on the Arcs, I've stuck with RIPv2, and let my next hop cisco redistribute into OSPF, aggregating in the process. With liberal use of passive-interface settings on the Cisco, I have very low CPU usage on the cisco boxes (including a 2500 in one city), as the cpu hit with RIP in IOS is keeping track of timers for re-broadcasting the routes. If you passive-interface all of your RIP interfaces on your cisco system, it doesn't have to keep track of all of those timers (on a per-route basis!) and as such will significantly lower your CPU usage. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456

Any idea as to what the actuall incompatibility is? We've got a decent sized pool of customers running this setup, and to have to go back to my support department and tell them to learn a new dialer and switch anyone over using ConfigPPP is going to make for a VERY unhappy support dept.

If I remember correctly (and it's been a while since we had to do this), FreePPP looks and works the same to the user as ConfigPPP, so the hardest task ahead of you is getting folks to install the new software and reconfigure... Once that's done it should be business as usual. The chicken and egg situation ("please dial in so you can download the new software", "but I CAN'T dial in") is the worst part. Hopefully you've got a small hunt for those folks on older software/hardware...
