(usr-tc) Gateway ends "Stupid" policies...

Gee, Gateway figured out that customer satisfaction really *is* important, maybe there's hope for 3Com/CommWorks' stupid support contract policies as well! http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/cn/20010426/tc/gateway_ends_quot_stupid_quot_p… -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm(a)iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - 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) Hiper Arc booting into Debug mode???
by Timothy C. Bohen 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

I just picked up a couple used Hiper Arcs, they look to be almost brand new but they both do the same thing. They boot into a debug mode and show up in TCM as question marks on the chassis. I can talk to them via the console port but all I have are like 5 commands. And even if I do a soft reboot from the console they just come back up in the debug mode?? Thanks in advance. - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo(a)xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.

RE: (usr-tc) IPIP Tunneling

Each of our TC boxes is behind a Cisco 1700 router. Could we possible do the IPIP tunnel from the Cisco then? Thanks, Brian Brian Becker President, Poplar Bluff Internet, Inc.

(usr-tc) IPIP Tunneling
by Brian Becker 26 Apr '01

I was at ISPCon this spring and asked CommWorks if the TC box did IPIP tunneling and was told by several (non-sales people) that it did. I can't find any documentation on it, can someone lend a helping hand? Brian Brian Becker President, Poplar Bluff Internet, Inc.

(usr-tc) Bridged or routed connections?
by Mark Thornton 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

I have run into a problem in my network that appears to be caused by my DSL router having the connections appear as bridged instead of routed. It is causing a throughput bottleneck of 50 to 70%. This is causing me to analyze my entire network configuration. Do the connections to a TCH on the HiperArc appear as routed connections, or as bridged connections?

(usr-tc) Netserver oddities
by Phil Moss 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

Hi all, I've currently got a netserevr that's showing some oddities. I can log into our system through the netserver with ISDN but when I try with a normal analogue modem it doesn't work. Testing with a FreeBSD box I get the following message; "*** Host Is Currently Unavailable ***" when using a normal username and no password is asked for. If I try using the !root manager username/password I get into the netserver the same as if I telneted in. As we've only got two of these beasts I don't really know that much about them. Any help is appreciated.

If you have routing turned on (RIP or OSPF) the ARC should advertise the route. I'd make sure that your Cisco 'sees' it with 'show ip route xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' or 'show ip route rip/OSPF'. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark E.

It won't actually delete, because some of the addresses will be in use. As soon as the last user using the 'old' addresses logs off, the pool will be deleted. > 2.

Nothing on the ARC, just set up the radius entry thusly: user Auth-Type = System User-Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-Protocol = PPP, Framed-Address = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, <== first address of static block Framed-Netmask = 255.255.255.192, Framed-Routing = None, Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP, Framed-MTU = 1518, Session-Timeout = 28800 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark E.
