LInk Timeouts
by Wayne Barber 26 Mar '02

26 Mar '02

I'm using the demo of Total Scrutinizer (which I like) and I've noticed the Link Timeout count keeps going up. Anyone know what that is measuring? Is it something about which I should be concerned? Thanks, Wayne Barber Coastal Telco Services

bad DSP?
by Mike Greene 23 Mar '02

23 Mar '02

Hello list members, I just acquired a used chassis with a few funky issues that I've managed to resolve but this one. I cannot seem to get this card to show "UP" for operational status, even though the remaining cards do (but are not plugged into telco T1's yet). The console port was showing down but I was able to clear that by doing a hardware reset, the modems on the other hand seem to be more difficult. I did pull the NIC and NAC out and it did not clear, is this DSP toast? Interface Oper Admin Name Status Status slot:4/mod:1 Down Up slot:4/mod:2 Down Up slot:4/mod:3 Down Up slot:4/mod:4 Down Up slot:4/mod:5 Down Up slot:4/mod:6 Down Up slot:4/mod:7 Down Up slot:4/mod:8 Down Up slot:4/mod:9 Down Up slot:4/mod:10 Down Up slot:4/mod:11 Down Up slot:4/mod:12 Down Up slot:4/mod:13 Down Up slot:4/mod:14 Down Up slot:4/mod:15 Down Up slot:4/mod:16 Down Up slot:4/mod:17 Down Up slot:4/mod:18 Down Up slot:4/mod:19 Down Up slot:4/mod:20 Down Up slot:4/mod:21 Down Up slot:4/mod:22 Down Up slot:4/mod:23 Down Up slot:4/mod:24 Down Up - Mike ------------------------------------------------ Rock Island Communications, Inc.

ISDN from a Cisco1604 won't connect second channel to HiPerDSP.
by WayneG 23 Mar '02

23 Mar '02

We are trying to connect a Cisco1604-ISDN Router to a TotalControl HiPerDSP. One channel comes up perfect, but the second channel is dropped immediately whenever it tries to connect. We can connect the 1604 to a Cisco3640 that has a BRI card in it, and it does 2 channels no problem. Also, we can also connect a 3Com Lan Router to the HiPerDSP and both channels work fine (even on different spans.) Cisco-to-Cisco is fine and 3Com-to-3Com is fine. But Cisco-to-3Com doesn't work. Go figure! Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you, -Wayne

Transmit clock source is set to loopTiming. Should that be different? Would that cause the NMC to go haywire and not the DSPs?

set packet_logging logging all work?
by Scott Trautman 21 Mar '02

21 Mar '02

What I'm trying to do: Get an idea of when packets are rejected from filters I'm using. Filters are assigned via RADIUS, and do work just fine. Use the following command: set packet_logging logging all Which is described as: set packet_logging logging [all | radius | none] packet_size [0-493 bytes] A description of each parameter follows. All - Creates SYSLOG messages globally for all filtered packets. Radius - Checks the RADIUS profile (Filter-Log-Packet attribute in the Access-Accept packet) on a per-user basis. None - No SYSLOG messages generated. 0-493 bytes - Use a number between 0 and 493 to specify how many bytes of the discarded packet to send to SYSLOG. Setting to 0 causes the entire packet to be included in the SYSLOG message. I see nothing in the syslog whatsoever relating to this other than a few sporadic: Mar 21 15:04:00 lkm-ha1 At 16:03:59, Facility "Filter Manager Process", Level "COMMON":: FM: No RADIUS rules available for user_handle=2bae06c, status=554d650c The filter DOES work, however, and I DID set the syslog to "verbose" (the above message came from that), but I'm really wondering if this command does anything at all. So, does this work, or, how do you debug filters other than "okay, it's just spinning now"...? SMT Scott M.

Save changes to DSP
by Kirk Mitchell 21 Mar '02

21 Mar '02

Switching PRI providers and I need to change the switch type in my DSP's, can't seem to find where to save the new setting so it holds through a reset. Also, in switching from DMS100 to NI2, should there be any other trunk setting or other items I need to watch for?

OSPF adding local routes
by talist＠vif.com 21 Mar '02

21 Mar '02

I found a strange behaviour with the ospf process on the harc. I recently had to add the following commands on a cisco router on the network router ospf 1 redistribute static subnets [...] ip route 192.168.128.0 255.255.224.0 null0 220 out of a sudden, a new route is showing on the Harcs with: list ip route: 192.168.128.0/19 LOCAL 192.168.128.254 1 eth:1 This is bad because I now have to go through the gateway (cisco) for all local traffic. Also, I can't even remove the route unless I reboot the HiperArc: HiPer>> delete ip route 192.168.128.0/19 ERROR - Failed to delete the route to 192.168.128.0. Only routes marked as Static/NetMgt can be deleted.

MultiLink PPP
by WayneG 21 Mar '02

21 Mar '02

I am dialing BRI into a TC1000 HiPerDSP with a Cisco1604. The first channel comes up and stays fine, but the second channel comes up and drops almost immediately (1 to 4 seconds.) Is there anything special to do for a Two channel call? Thank you, -Wayne.
