Dial-Out - no "CONNECT xxx" messages?!?
by Greg Ansley 16 Apr '04

16 Apr '04

I am trying to use an old TC chassis for dial-out. The problem I'm having is that, while the modems connect to the server, they don't return a "CONNECT xxx" messages after call setup. They just go strait to transferring data. Unfortunately I need to know when the connection is made since some servers don't send any data first, and if I send data before the modem is finished negotiating the connection it will hang up! I have spent several hours trying to find a modem setting to fix this without any luck. Any help or hints would be appreciated! The set up is: telnet to a Netserver PRI to a Quad-modem V.90 to CT1 to server. Modem settings are: ATI4 USRobotics Digital Quad Settings... Copyright, 1988-2000, 3Com Corp. All rights reserved.

Callback on HiPer
by Gregory Vera 15 Apr '04

15 Apr '04

I have chassis with HiPer ARC (5.3.3), HiPer DSP E1/PRI (3.5.13). I want to do callback on that TC. Callback is enabled on HiPer ARC (enable ppp negotiated_callback), interfaces are TWO_WAY. On radius there is user with Service-type Callback-Framed, Callback-Number xxxxxx, and all other attributes for network user. After calling this TC, callback is negotiated and TC calls me back, but my modem can't hear TC side modem. Where is problem? Can anybody help?

RE: [USR-TC] TCS 4.5 upgrade skips
by Adam Barnhill 10 Apr '04

10 Apr '04

In my experience, the ARC and NMC couldn't care less if you skip versions from any particular base version. The HiperDSP however does have a problem downgrading from 4.5 to 4.3 so really the only version I think might be necessary is 3.1.7 for the HiperDSP. The first card I skipped to TCS 4.5 never quite worked right, and so I downgraded it. However, the only code I did that with was 2.1.85 to 3.5.12 Perhaps the issues I found were directly related to 3.5.12 and not the skipping of code. I run 3.5.109 and don't have any problems now. There could have been numerous things causing the issues he experienced. However, so far as I know the only thing he did to fix it was downgrade his HiperDSPs and then flash 'em back to TCS 4.5 I'm curious, which TCM version are you using? I'm sure if there were actually a problem, you would know it within the first week. -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Lynch [mailto:jeff@mercury.jorsm.com] Sent: Friday, April 09, 2004 3:49 PM To: usr-tc(a)mailman.xmission.com Cc: Adam Barnhill Subject: RE: [USR-TC] TCS 4.5 upgrade skips Adam Barnhill said: > You'll need to upgrade from TCS 4.3 to 4.5, if you don't you will (most > likely) have modem handshake/connection/call handling problems. Happen to know if is this an greater issue for the HiperDSP but not the HiperARC or HiperNMC? HiperARC 5.1.73 -> 5.3.110 (TCS4.2 -> TCS4.5) HiperNMC 7.2.8 -> 8.6.3 (TCS4.0 -> TCS4.5) HiperDSP 2.0.51 -> 3.5.109 (TCS3.6 -> TCS4.5) ! As you can see I went from 2.0.51 directly to 3.5.109 but have had no problems so far in test setup. MOH and PCM upstream both work well. TCM works fine (config and perf monitor, other common stuff) and I did a complete power cycle test and everything recovers no-problemo (tells me NMC and save/restore NVRAM probably OK, yes?). Harc routes fine and does everything we had it doing before, including participate in RIP2 with cisco (as well as RIP can be expected to do). I can move the HiperDSP from 2.0.51 (or 2.1.85) to 3.1.7 before going to TCS4.5 (because I have that dmf). But this is the only interim release my former Network Admin obtained before our software contract expired. I did decide to sacrifice these three cards (harc, hnmc and hdsp) to try this upgrade skip before re-contracting. Stll has me wondering if the "upgrade in steps" is a ploy to keep us buying software contracts without lapse, but I may have just disproved this being necessary. We've kept under contract until now, looks like our hardware is dead for software updates and dialup is not really growing. Thus my debacle. Couldn't there be several reasons to explain the problem referenced below? Inexperience with chassis upgrade. Their pickiness with restore from default, change config, save to nvram, hardware reset. Miss a step, do too many at once, etc.... Hopefully there are fewer concerns if the NMC and HARC work fine after upgrade. I did delete the harc router config after the bruteforce zmodem upgrade and re-built the config from scratch. So far so good. I will next try without PCM upstream to see if quick connect improves. Not using 3.5.12 as referenced below (using 3.5.109). Fingers crossed. --jeff > > This snippit was from an individual that did a very similar upgrade as > you are suggesting.
