(usr-tc) chat_script syntax
by Blue Moon Network Administrator 02 Dec '99

02 Dec '99

We've been killing ourselves trying to find reference for chat_script(s) for hiper arc. We're trying to make the hiper TC emulate what our netserver and portmaster boxes do. Users have three choices when they connect: >>> - Blue Moon X2/V.90 - Select HOST: ppp shell bbs Type new to register for net access. <<< shell telnets them into our shell box, BBS rlogins them into our BBS machine and new is a new user program which runs on a unix box to allow text terminals to register for access. "ppp" obviously starts a PPP session. PortMaster3 > sh user new Username: new Type: Login User Host: dec Login Service: rlogin (513) PortMaster3 > sh ta user Netmask/ Name Type Address/Host Service RIP -------- ---------------- ------------------- ---------- --- new Login User dec Rlogin NEW Login User dec Rlogin shell Login User dec Telnet bbs Login User bbs Rlogin The only reference I have found for chat_script is one from the list archives which didn't work. It's auth line looks like this: AUTHENTICAT LOGIN_BANNER=""LOGIN_PROMPT="Username:"; Which just does a "Chat Script Operation done, but verification failed" no matter how many changes I make to that line. I did find out by trial and error that the single command "PPP;" starts up an unauthenticated PPP session which is obviously no good unless you give away free internet. I have been able to find ZERO documentation on chat_script syntax and options. I must have a functioning host prompt (host:) which also allows radius authed PPP sessions to be started for legacy compatibility with user scripts. How the hell do I do this on a HARC TC? Anyone want to buy a brand new hiper chassis with 48 ports? I am so fed up with this thing and 3com that I'm ready to take a bath to be shut of it for once and for all. I was told by my rep at one of USR's biggest sellers that hiper was 100% backward compatible with ComOS' syntax. This tc hiper (POS) has made me miserable and has been holding up adding more dialups. If I can't get this thing going the way it ought to be this week I will get rid of it for another PM3 which have been great boxes for us since the modem code stabilized. I also have a netserver TC which is easy to deal with as it uses ComOS for its OS. Damn USR/3Com for their hiper nightmare. J.

(usr-tc) HiperARC took a dive
by Steve Coleman 01 Dec '99

01 Dec '99

I powered off my TC chassis tonight to plug it into a new UPS. When I powered it back on, the Run/Fail light on the HiperARC stayed red. It shows up as a "?" in the Total Control Manager. I tried rebooting the unit several times, using several different power sources. I also tried removing the front portion of the card (while powered off) and reinserting it. I can only guess it's cooked. Is there anything else I can try? I would like to express my disgust with 3Com on this matter. After troubleshooting the problem as described above, I called 3Com service. They couldn't seem to "find" my service contract that I paid over a thousand dollars for, just for this type of incident. She offered to take my credit card and transfer me to a level support agent. I should be paid to have to talk to a level 1 rep, not the other way around. I told her I wasn't interested in doing that and expressed that this was the specific and only reason I bought the service contract. She said she couldn't help me. This piece of garbage is only 4 months old, this is not acceptable. Why didn't I just buy another Portmaster. <kicking myself> I'm going to ream my service contract agent in the morning. Until then it's lots of busy signals. Suggestions? - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

I do have it. It's in a PHP3 script I wrote to monitor users online, speed, time, in/out bytes etc. I just tried your's to see if the number was of any use, and it barfed. actually if you use the OID you do not need the mib file. the mib file is ONLY for OID->human readable form. you can delete the entire /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs directory and snmp will still work fine. so it's not a problem with the mib file... the oid just wasn't right.

Originally we had to do a walk of the NMC card to find the number of active sessions, but we asked our vendor for some development so that we could just perform one snmp get for the total number of active sessions on a NAS or on a DSP card. Apparently here in NZ we get slightly different software releases to others.

Above all thanks to all those that try to help me, but the OIDS that indicated me begins with .1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4 and I make a SNMPWALK from that this OID and I don't have anything under the .4 To the state of the Quad modems I see it with 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.1.6.9.1.1.7.XXXX To the card Hiper DSP sees it in enterprises.429.1.1.2.1.1.3.10000 = 3COM High-Density Modem NAC" Continue forgiving the translation to English...

(usr-tc) What would you do.

I have been given the chance to replace all my 3com gear, and I am deciding if I want to. Has anyone had experience with other vendors. I have been thinking about Cisco, or Ascend, or is HiPer the way to go. I know Cisco has far better support, but all in all please give me your opinions backed with reasons what would be the best way to go.

Paul You should have the usrCip MIB (1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.10). Originally we had to do a walk of the NMC card to find the number of active sessions, but we asked our vendor for some development so that we could just perform one snmp get for the total number of active sessions on a NAS or on a DSP card.

Jose We have HiPer DSPs and use the OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.10.36.0 on the ARC card that will return a single value for the number of active ports in a chassis. There are other OIDs around this value that will give you a per DSP card count, if you have the correct version of ARC code (4.1.50) Hope this helps Campbell - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
