RE: (usr-tc) NMC not responding

I;ve had this happen a few times. Just reboot the NMC card by sliding it out if the chassis or via the console interface and it will be well again (until next time). Rebooting the NMC won't affect active users sessions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark E.

RE: [USR-TC] Forcing a default route for customer through radius

I was hoping to do it by Radius though. Isn't there a way to do it by framed-route or something like that? Brian Becker President, Poplar Bluff Internet, Inc. http://semo.net P.O.

Check into the Internet Equal Access (IEA) feature. Basically let's you set up per-user default routes. I've not used this feature personally, so I don't know how much help I can be on configuration issues, but I know that's what it does. :) Another option might be to configure the customer as a tunnel user and tunnel them to wherever you need to get their traffic, though there are, obviously, some complications from that. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm(a)iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 _______________________________________________ USR-TC mailing list USR-TC(a)mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/usr-tc

(usr-tc) FW: [datacomm] Secret access to TCs
by Brian Becker 25 Jun '02

25 Jun '02

The newest edition to our IT Department (he's been in Tech Support for 3 years) emailed me this afternoon (full email below). I didn't believe him at first so I telneted to on of our TC boxes and when prompted with "Login:" I typed adm and pressed Enter. HOLY COW! It said "Hiper:" and I had full access. I'm curious as to how many people on this list were vulnerable like us (we have 20 TC boxes throughout Southeast Missouri). Brian Brian Becker President, Poplar Bluff Internet, Inc. P.O.

(usr-tc) Upgraded TC's
by Mark Thornton 21 Jun '02

21 Jun '02

We jsut upgraded our TC chassis to the lastest available code (yes we paid for support) and the phones have stopped ringing. We always had a certain level of calls with various connection problems of one sort or another, but that seems to have dried up in the week since we installed the new code. We made the decision to go with the paid support over replacement of our chassis strictly on financial grounds. There was no way to amortize new equipment costs for our dialup market. Yes, it blows to have to pay for something others get for free, however I must say the support I have gotten is so much better than what I ever got from 3Com directly. There has been no backlash from the new code that I have found which is also a welcome change.

Added Span2 and 6 Quads... not playing
by Tom Harberts 10 May '02

10 May '02

Hi Folks, I'm new here. I purchased a used enterprise hub a year ago, ordered a T1 and the hub was pretty much plug-n-play. The time has come to add 6 more quads and bring in another T1. I ordered the T1 with hunt rollover. Qwest says the span is good. showing up and idle. My T1 card says the same. However, when calls come in, and the calls that balance over to the new span the calls just drop. In fact, the modems don't answer. The modems and DS0's are mapped and green in TCM. The numbering looks good. I posted a series of outputs from various show commands. I'm hoping a TC veteran can look them over and make a suggestion. Here is the url... http://www.gigonet.com/usr-tc.html Thanks-in-advance! -Tom

MRTG modem utilization for Quad
by Gen Camiling 30 Apr '02

30 Apr '02

Hello there, I just want to get any expert advice/suggestion on a certain issue. I have gotten this MRTG thing to monitor port utilization but when i try to implement it in one client of mine who still using Quad ana/digi cards apparently there was no graphic display of the trends (believe me in this part of the world there are still people using analog access). Feel free to give your comment. What i did miss? Am looking for the necessary OID for the Quads. ====start of MRTG config==== Target[usage]:1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.2.1.10.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.429.4.2.1.10.0:public@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx RouterUptime[usage]: public(a)xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <<< this is hiperarc IP address and community MaxBytes[usage]: 150 <<< this is the total amount of lines you have available AbsMax[usage]: 150 Title[usage]: Number of Modems In Use PageTop[usage]: <H1>Number of Modems In Use</H1> Unscaled[usage]: ymwd ShortLegend[usage]: Modems XSize[usage]: 380 YSize[usage]: 100 YLegend[usage]: Modems In Use Legend1[usage]: Modems In Use Legend2[usage]: Legend3[usage]: Legend4[usage]: LegendI[usage]: Modems In Use LegendO[usage]: Options[usage]: gauge ====end of MRTG config==== -- Best regards, Gen ================================== Gen Camiling Chief Technical Officer International Micro Village, Inc.

27 Apr '02

Does anybody know where there is a list of descriptions for the various USR-Connect-Term-Reason codes that a USR will log to a RADIUS server? I don't mean just the list of codes but rather a complete description of what each code means.

hiperarc syslog parsing
by MacDonald, James 25 Apr '02

25 Apr '02

I'm wondering if anyone has a document and/or url regarding error detection in hiperarc syslogs. I want to parse the scripts daily and adhoc for major errors that could be causing: busies, login fails, disconnects etc. I've had no luck using any 3com/Commworks documents and haven't found much by searching the net. Any help is appreciated.
