RE: (usr-tc) NMC not responding

I;ve had this happen a few times. Just reboot the NMC card by sliding it out if the chassis or via the console interface and it will be well again (until next time). Rebooting the NMC won't affect active users sessions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark E.

RE: [USR-TC] Problem with HiperDSP card
by SWujek＠solunet.com 22 Apr '03

Hi Scot, We see this a lot on Hiper DSP cards when they fail. Try the Z-Modem procedure through the console port to reload code to it and see if that works. Most of the cards we see like this have to be sent back to 3Com for repair. Thanks, Steve Solunet TAC -----Original Message----- From: Scot Desort [mailto:scot@njaccess.net] Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2002 10:09 AM To: usr-tc(a)lists.xmission.com Subject: [USR-TC] Problem with HiperDSP card I have a HiperDSP card in a TC chassis that appears to have failed over the weekend. The RN/FL light was red, and the FOURTH utilization bar LED from the bottom was AMBER. I moved the card to another slot, and it worked OK for 2 days, and failed again. I left the card unplugged overnight, and plugged it back into the same slot this morning. It is now working again. But obviously something is wrong. I know that a red RN/FL is no good, but does the 4th utilization bar being amber mean anything? Any tests or settings I should check while the card is in an operational state? Not ever having a DSL go bad on me, what is the best course of action -- attempt to have Commworks repair it, replace it with a used card, ??? Card is about 2.5 years old.

Check into the Internet Equal Access (IEA) feature. Basically let's you set up per-user default routes. I've not used this feature personally, so I don't know how much help I can be on configuration issues, but I know that's what it does. :) Another option might be to configure the customer as a tunnel user and tunnel them to wherever you need to get their traffic, though there are, obviously, some complications from that. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm(a)iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 _______________________________________________ USR-TC mailing list USR-TC(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/usr-tc

They (users) are authenticated in my Radius, but when Radius reply the attributes (pool name, dns primary, dns secondary, wins primary), the name of pool is not considerated (ip pool are defined locally in the HiperArc) and the session is configurated with an ip of other pool. Please, consider the follow: .- The ip assigned is taked from other pool, as long as this pool is defined as "public". If I set all pool as "private" then the sesion is unsuccessful. .- The reply atribute used for assign pool name is "USR-Framed_IP_Address_Pool_Name". This parameter works well with users that enter to same HiperArc bydirect dialup access. Thanks Esteban

ARC not releasing IP addresses
by MacDonald, James 30 Aug '02

30 Aug '02

Hi All, We have 1 hyperarc that seems to have a problem where it can not release IPs previously assigned properly. It sometimes does and sometimes doesn't ... eventually the arc runs out of IP addresses to assign and spews the following error: Aug 15 09:02:12 9L102PDI-H1 At 13:01:46, Facility "IP", Level "CRITICAL":: ip_fwd_get_opt: no IP address available for dynamic address assignment As you can see, the IP addresses (162 of them) are completely used up and there are only 7 users online. We don't think this is a code specific issue as we run this code on all ARCs (about 250 of them) and this is the only one getting these errors ... it may be hardware related, but in my experience these types of issues are generally code ... so, I'm at a cross-roads so to speak. Has anyone else run into this and found a workaround? BTW: we can find only 2 ways to correct the issue, rebooting or removing the IP Pools and adding them back ... we generally reboot as that is much quicker and less error prone.
