Jeff/Mike, Maybe yes, maybe no. The route Mike is adding has a /32 mask, he doesn't say what the mask is on the HARC ethernet interface already. The mask is very likely wider than that to provide server IP address space. All depends what that existing mask is. We are agreed anyway that IP aliasing is a possible alternative. For Mike's information, IP aliasing is a technique where you give the server more than one IP address. By giving it an address from another subnet, you can beat the rules. You also need to create an IP alias on the HARC ethernet interface by adding a new network to the interface. How it's all done will depend very much on the type of server type, Unix/NT/Other. Might be a good idea to take this off-line if we're getting down to details! Regards, Colin Also sprach Colin Wantling >But 10.1.1.9 and 10.1.1.12 are on the same subnet. Bah! Get that classful crap out of your head! :) The IP address 10.1.1.12 is most definitely not in 10.1.1.9/32. >The Harc gets packets to the local destination using the MAC address on >the local subnet. For a directly connected route, yes. There's no reason that you shouldn't be able to have a more specific static route though. >IP aliasing might provide a way to do what you want.

But 10.1.1.9 and 10.1.1.12 are on the same subnet. I would not expect the router to accept this route to host. The Harc gets packets to the local destination using the MAC address on the local subnet. IP aliasing might provide a way to do what you want. Kind regards, Colin Wantling Energis NV.

(usr-tc) Static Routing Question
by Mike Storjohann 25 Apr '00

25 Apr '00

HELP!!!! I am trying to add a static route to my Hiper ARC that will send all traffic bound for 10.1.1.9 to 10.1.1.12. Here is the line I try to type in to the CLI. add ip route 10.1.1.9/32 gate 10.1.1.12 met 1 What I am trying to accomplish is to get the traffic bound for my web server (10.1.1.9) to go through another box (10.1.1.12) first to monitor the traffic. I get the following error. ERROR - Cannot add a static route for a range of addresses that is reachable from a directly connected network. The address of the Ethernet port of the HiperARC is 10.1.1.8 and is on the same subnet (/24) as the other IPs I am trying to route. Is there a way to get this route to stick? Is there another way to accomplish this? In a Cisco I could use an Access-List, but I see nothing built into 3Com like that. Any help would be appreciated.

Greg, We had the same problem with .51 and I backed off to the .60 version except for 3 DSP's with .54 revisions which need the .51 code to remain stable. I posted the problems to the list as soon as the code was released and we tried it out. Apparently there does not seem to be too many people affected by it.

Reason I ask is since going to the .51 code we have had an excessive amount of users that say they either can't connect or they connect and 7sec (Reported by about 10 users) after they are disconnected. Also the HCF modems seem to be having a harder time connecting. Odd thing is this only happens after 5:30 to 6:00 pm when modem utilization starts to go up. Yet I can't seem to pin it down on any particular card that it is happening on. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

(usr-tc) Where to find 3Com TC config help <newbie>?
by Greg Bretting 22 Apr '00

22 Apr '00

Hey all, I'm looking for an online source of info (FAQ, howto, whatever) on how to configure a 3Com TC chassis with a PRI span. Anyone know of a good reference? In case anyone's curious or can lend a hand... This isn't for a typical application -- it will be used as a head-end for automated V.90 modem testing and will probably never have more than one DS0/user active at one time. Don't need RADIUS or any kind of accounting or security, and want to configure the system so that an incoming call is automatically routed to a port on a terminal server. I know it's kinda wierd, but that's what I need to make the test work. I've done this with Max4000 boxen, but TC/TCM is a bit of a mystery so far. I think I'm just a couple of clues short of getting it done, so would like to find some handy online reference to fill in the blanks. Tried the 3Com support site, and so far have only found either large .pdf files that show you how to plug in the cards (bah!), or other documentation that tells me everything but the basic step-by-step PRI config. Any help mucho appreciated... Greg -- "A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history with the possible exceptions of handguns and tequila."
