(usr-tc) Debugging ISDN / Ports
by Scott Kupferschmidt 17 Jul '00

17 Jul '00

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.

(usr-tc) Which code to run
by Brian 15 Jul '00

15 Jul '00

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.

(usr-tc) SNMP Guidance
by Scot Desort 11 Jul '00

11 Jul '00

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.

(usr-tc) Hiper Arc Filters
by Scott Bailey 11 Jul '00

11 Jul '00

Hi, I am having trouble configuring and assighning filters dynamicly with radius on the Hiper Arcs. This is what I have. On the Hiper Arc: filter.fil #filter IP: 005 AND src-addr = 0.0.0.0/0; 010 ACCEPT dst-addr = 216.32.74.50; 015 AND dst-addr = 0.0.0.0/0; 020 REJECT tcp-dst-port = 80; 025 AND dst-addr = 0.0.0.0/0; 030 REJECT tcp-dst-port = 443; 035 AND dst-addr = 0.0.0.0/0; 040 REJECT tcp-dst-port = 119; 045 AND dst-addr = 0.0.0.0/0; 050 REJECT tcp-dst-port = 6667; 055 AND dst-addr = 0.0.0.0/0; 060 REJECT udp-dst-port = 6667; 070 DENY; In Radius: Filter_ID=filter.fil, Show session (user ID) indicates that the Filter_ID radius attribute was picked up by the NAS. However, it does not block any of the ports defined in the filter. Do I need to configur something else?

(usr-tc) Authentication problem
by Scot Desort 10 Jul '00

10 Jul '00

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. The users do NOT have CHAP enabled. I am running DSPs with 2.0.51 code: (Radius :00238) 7/5/2000 13:26:14 ODBC_AUTH: Invalid Password Attempt [JÃÂ»Â¼^5Â® Ã±LÂBÃ d"] - username-xxxx (Radius :00070) 7/5/2000 13:26:14 ODBC_AUTH: Invalid Password Attempt [dÂ°Â£0ÃÂ%txZN NnÂ¾] - username-xxxx (Radius :00238) 7/5/2000 13:26:18 ODBC_AUTH: Invalid Password Attempt [JÃÂ»Â¼^5Â® Ã±LÂBÃ d"] - username-xxxx (Radius :00070) 7/5/2000 13:27:31 ODBC_AUTH: Invalid Password Attempt [=ÂÃ£Zd] - username-xxxx (Radius :00238) 7/5/2000 13:27:32 ODBC_AUTH: Invalid Password Attempt [Â¨xXÂ¸Â¡'.Ã ~;)ATZ] - username-xxxx (Radius :00070) 7/5/2000 13:27:35 ODBC_AUTH: Invalid Password Attempt [=ÂÃ£Zd] - username-xxxx Aside from line noise, what could be causing this? The username comes through fine every time without corruption, so something tells me it might not be line noise. It happens to a variety of users throughout the day, to a variety of phone numbers.
