(usr-tc) Transition from Netserver to ARC
by Timothy C. Bohen 13 Mar '01

13 Mar '01

I have been using tons of Netserver PRI's in the past and just recently got my first Arc. I know there is no future in the Netserver so I will continue to get more Arcs, but I have a few issues. Whats the easiest way to get a Arc up and running? I have a chassis with seven DSP's and just want to do basic dialin access. Assign DNS numbers, assign an address from a pool and authenticate against a RADIUS server. Thanks. Timothy C.

(usr-tc) !Root Password question and version info
by Rob 13 Mar '01

13 Mar '01

In the course of reorganizing our POP, we have cleverly mixed up all the TC boxes and lost the !root passwords. Our goal is to reset the passwords on the units without erasing the other flashed configuration information (v90) and to pull the v34 units from service. My questions then are: (1) Will enabling Dip Switch 5 erase our v90 flash as well as reset the password (obviously not what we want)? If so, is there another way to reset the !root password (maybe using the adm account?) without losing our v90 flash? (2) Short of reconnecting the entire unit, is there a way to determine if the unit is v90 flashed or just v34 (like a version number, maybe?)? Thanks - in advance - for any help.

(usr-tc) Secondary radius

Today my primary radius failed, and the ARC didn't switch over to the secondary automatically. What command setting would have been blown away and have to be re-entered? - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) Basic TC Question
by Brad Gass 09 Mar '01

09 Mar '01

You'll have to forgive me for being a tad new to the USR gear. I've worked with Ariel and Multitech, but this is my first exposure to any USR TC equipment. I've got a chance to buy a 48 port v.34 TC chassis (12 quad v.34 modems, NetServer PRI, Dual PRI NAC, Management Card, etc), but my question is pretty basic - Is a TC chassis configured and equipped for PRI also useable in a channelized T1 environment (non-PRI)? I know some equipment will work with either/or, and others will work with one or the other and not both. I don't have PRI available at the POP I've got in mind for this gear, and since it's super-rural, v.90 is completely worthless. That's why v.34 digital (and fully managed) is ideal. I'm also not totally sure everything I need is in this chassis, but I can deal with that later, after I pester 3Com in the morning to correct the links to all their documentation! Thanks in advance.

I am trying to change the default route for my USR Total Control chassie. So I enter the command like this add ip deFAULTROUTE gaTEWAY 208.201.224.230 and I get this message back ERROR - Specified gateway is not on a directly connected network. Now this address is on the exact same netowork as the box. Here is what show ip network shows.

(usr-tc) Mac Problems with Open Transport 1.1.x
by Randy Cosby 05 Mar '01

05 Mar '01

Here is a note from my Mac tech. He's seeing strange problems with our older Mac users, where the first time they log on, they don't get in. After that, they're fine until they reboot. I think it's been going on for a long time, but he just got very annoyed about it last week. Our radius logs show that the user DOES authenticate successfully. --- This is true for any Macintosh (68k or PPC) running Open Transport (version 1.1.1 and 1.1.2). The first time they dial-up after every boot, they get an authentication failed error. It is successful every time after that until they restart the computer again, where it fails the first time again. This is generally only a problem on macs running System 7.5 to 7.6.1. The highest that can be installed on 68k machines is System 7.6.1. If they are running System 7.1, they need to install MacTCP, which does not have the problem. If they have System 8.1 or higher, Open Transport 1.3.1 can be installed (I believe I noticed that Open Transport 1.3.0 had the same problem as 1.1.1 and 1.1.2, but I don't have another computer to verify that), which also does not have the problem. It is a problem that exists on macs running Mac OS 8.0, because you can't install Open Transport 1.3 or higher on Mac OS 8.0, but you can update Mac OS 8.0 to 8.1, and then install Open Transport 1.3, then update to 1.3.1 to correct the problem. --- HiperARC 4.1.59-6 HiperDSP's running 2.0.60 Ideas? - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

(usr-tc) Dead HiperDSPs with one Utilization LED
by Kevin Hemsley 01 Mar '01

01 Mar '01

I have two HiperDSP card sets which TCM doesn't recognize. After a reboot, one Utilization LED lights up - the 4th LED from the bottom is amber. Also the Run/Fail LED is red. These cards were operating fine as hot spares in a different chassis, but after moving to another chassis, they wouldn't boot. Moving the cards back to the original chassis results in the same problem. I have tried reloading the software via the AUX port which was successful, except the same problem is happening after the software reload. Any ideas? ---------------------------------- Kevin Hemsley Systems Engineer Microserv Computer Technologies, Inc. kev(a)ida.net KB7TYA - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
