When LPBK/D-ALM is off, that's normal. If it comes on, then you have a problem. - Joel -----Original Message----- From: Lee Terrell [mailto:leet@directcon.net] Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 6:08 PM To: usr-tc(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: [USR-TC] Help with LPBK/D-ALM Hi All, I was referred over to this list which I didn't know was still active, I wish I had found it awhile back. We recently purchased 2 used Hiper DSP NIC/NAC sets for a 3com Total Control chassis. Initially, the cards came with an old code version (1.2.37), so we updated to match the rest of our DSPs at 2.1.9. Before and after the update, the LPBK/D-ALM led stays off, like it's not seeing a D channel on our PRI. After googling around some I checked settings like the switch type and set all those to match our other DSP cards, but the led still remains off. Can anyone here think of anything else I might can check or do before I write these off as bad cards and send off for replacements? I also seem to remember a way to clone a DSP configuration over to another DSP, but it's been awhile since I've had to use the TCM, so I'm fumbling with that and saving individual DSP configuration. Right now I'm just defaulting to "save all" on the CLI when I make changes. I thought that perhaps if I could do a clone, I could copy the config from a working card over to these new ones and see if I can get a positive result. I appreciate any help/guidance you can offer. Thank you, Lee Terrell _______________________________________________ USR-TC mailing list USR-TC(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/usr-tc

netserver 16 Imodem
by shahrooz 06 Nov '02

Hi all Is there anybody here having experience with netserver 16? I have bought a netserver 16 IModem and my phone lines from Telco are analog. Can I use them with netserver? it seems it works only with ISDN. if yes what is the correct pinout for phone lines (netserver has 8 rj45 connector not rj11) Thanks

Re: [USR-TC] 10 Mbps half duplex

Hi David, As you can see from the mailing list, there was only 3 customers (you, Jeff McAdams and myself) whising to have a manual Ethernet setting. Collision and error rate are much higher than earlier said. I have a peak of 15 collisions per second. I don't understand why CommWorks doesn't put this "feature" in the next release... We are using hiperarc 2.5.113 and got some reboot once in a while. The fix is to upgrade to 2.5.116 Do you see hiperarc reboot as well? Richard Roy >From: "David A.

Hiper ARC and Quads
by Nick Bone 02 Nov '02

02 Nov '02

Hello, We have had a Dual E1 chassis with 10 quads and a NetServer card. The dual E1 lines supply the full 60 channels, and as the majority of calls are ISDN (single & multilink), the system worked ok. If an analogue call came in, it got a modem, and if and ISDN call came in it went straight through to the NetServer. Eg. We could have 20 analogue and 40 isdn or 40 analogue and 20 isdn etc. We have acquired a Hiper ARC card and now any ISDN call appears to come in on a modem, so once 40 calls have been connected (any combination of analogue and isdn) the chassis will not accept any more calls. Have we missed a configuration option to route ISDN calls direct to the Hiper ARC or are we trying the impossible? Any help appreciated. Nick Bone Wyenet Limited

10 Mbps half duplex
by Richard Roy 30 Oct '02

30 Oct '02

I would like to find a way to configure a port to 10 Mbps Full Duplex on hiperarc. I have a switch (Cisco Catalyst) that is capable of doing 10 Mbps half/full. It will be too costly to replace all my cards to support 10/100. When I set the switch port to 10 Mbps Full, the hiperarc default to 10 Mbps half because of autosensing logic. This create alignment errors... So far, I am using up to 7 DSP per 10 Mbps half duplex connection. I see up to 4% collision rate. I am trying to get a better "Internet experience" out of my testing. It will be "really" nice to have a manual speed & duplex setting. Because we use this interface like a "trunk", even at 100 Mbps autosensing I will prefer to see a manual setting. I spoke to CommWorks and they want my company to pay for it because I'm the only customer requesting it. In a nutshell, I would like to hear from you the following: - Is there a way to assign 10 Mbps full duplex if the switch is only 10 Mbps half/full? - If you are using a 10 Mbps half duplex, what is your maximum number of hiperDSP assigned to this conection? - Would you consider "important" to have a manual speed and duplex setting on hiperarc? Thank you for your time. Richard Roy _________________________________________________________________ Unlimited Internet access -- and 2 months free!

Cc: Commworks, Solunet Richard, We are dealing with a similar issue. We're using an HP switch, 10/100. We would like to hard-code to 100FDx, for the obvious reason that auto-detect is almost completely unreliable. Commworks repeated that dialogue verbatim. "We will need you to pay for it as you are the only customer requesting this." I find it rather interesting that we were told that a Cisco Catalyst (or most any switch other than HP) would not exhibit the auto-negotiation problems. I will, however, give credit to Commworks for recognizing the issue after a time. They have, in fact, agreed to "determine what needs to happen to put manual overrides in place" without compensation. Beyond this they will not guarantee that the efforts they put forth towards resolving the issue are free of charge. If you (or anyone for that matter) are interested in the ongoing progress of this issue, please contact me privately. David A.
