RE: [USR-TC] Problem on Multilink
by Joel - Fox Computers 24 Sep '02

OK - now I'm really unhappy with Source-T. Finally got them to acknowledge that there are newer ER releases of ARC and DSP code available, but they are telling me I'm not allowed to have them unless I have the specific problem that is corrected by the new release. I'm thinking that when the year is up I'm not going to have a specific problem that's going to require me to renew my contract with them. - Joel -----Original Message----- From: Joel - Fox Computers Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 9:25 AM To: usr-tc(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: RE: [USR-TC] Problem on Multilink This brings up another question - is there a version of the Hiper ARC 5.3.105?

Anybody had any luck getting a HiperDSP to place analog calls? If so, could you send me your config. Please send me any info regarding connections scripts/init strings if possible. This is in reference to my previous post about a backup backhaul over MLPPP.

RE: [USR-TC] 3.5.105
by Joel - Fox Computers 23 Sep '02

23 Sep '02

First - nope, 3.5.105 been stable here. Second - I know they don't recommend running conflicting versions of software. Your DSP and NMC are TCS4.5 but your ARC is pre-TCS4.0. I would get your ARC up to 5.3.3. Third - according to Source-T, there is no 3.5.107 - .105 is the latest.

Just my opinion - 3.5.12 gotta go - you need 3.5.103 or 3.5.105.

Changing the radius authentication/accounting port on the Netserver
by Patrick Ndegwa 23 Sep '02

23 Sep '02

Hi there. I have some 3Com Netserver (ver 3.8.1) cards. I am installing a new radius server for them and running the authentication/accounting on ports 1812 and 1813 (not the standard 1645/1646). I can change the IP address of the radius server on the Netserver (set accounting ..., set authentic ..., set alternate ...) . How do I change the port number to 1812/1813?

RE: [USR-TC] V.92 problem modems

V.92 is a feature (subset) of v.90, not a modulation type. Connections will show V.90 Modulation. You will have to check the intended operational features of V.92 to include: PCM upstream, Modem on hold, and Quick Connect and see if any of those work.
