Cisco Switching/Routing :: 2821 High Interface Discards
Apr 8, 2013
I am having an issue pinpointing why my 2821 router is discarding so many packets when transferring data to our second site. The traffic flows from the local lan, to the router, where it is redirected via WCCP to a WAN optimization device, back to the router and over a GRE tunnel to the second site where the same process happens. The traffic does get there, but the LAN/Repeater router interfaces have around 20,000-60,000 input drops an hour. From the output below, it looks like traffic is being dropped by the RP.
I just restarted the router as a last resort, and here is what has accumulated in the last 30 min:
FastEthernet0/0/1 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, address is 0025.840c.7680 (bia 0025.840c.7680)

And CPU never goes above 40%

We have a Cisco 6513 Switch. During some parts of the day it is having large amounts of transmit discards on a certain interface because of the amount of data we are pushing. We have determined it is a link problem and not a problem with the switch. The link cannot handle the amount of packets the switch is pushing out. I was wondering if there is a way to create a buffer or a way to regulate the maximum amount of packets that can leave that interface without losing any packets?

We've got Cisco 2821 for our 90mb/s Internet Access. Its CPU usage is around 80%. Show process cpu does not show any cpu proccess with high utilization. But we have got plenty of policing configured for our clients using policy maps. Can this policing affect cpu usage?

we're facing a weird issue lately with a Cisco 2821.An interface stops responding after a few hours.The only way to bring it 'up' again is:
Hardcode: duplex or speed
or
shutdown -> no shutdown
there are no errors in the "sho interface" and no errors or entries in the log.
FastEthernet0/0/0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Fast Ethernet, -

I am in the process of installing a 3750x (IOS 12.2 (53r) SE2 IP Base) Cisco Catalyst switch in a new network of just 2 PC's (2 hosts, OS windows7 64Bits). I have enabled SVI interfaces with the both hosts installed in 2 different network segments. We then start connectivity test. The response time for the PING command between both hosts remain below 1 millisecond, whereas the response time between the hosts and their correspondent SVI interface is variable, and at all time is higher than 1 millisecond, sometimes it reaches 17 milliseconds. (Note that the switch CPU usage is only 8% at the time of testing) We have performed this same connectivity test changing the 3750x switches and in two different locations obtaining the same results.

We have a failover pair of load balancers (non-Cisco) which are connected to each other via Catalyst 6509Es with Sup720 supervisor cards. Failover is achieved by the newly active load balancer GARPing all its service IP addresses with the relevant MAC address in order to update nearby ARP tables (failover GARPs are fired out by the load balancers at a rate of 200 per second). Failing over services between these load balancers has been found to be problematic, with numerous services not failing over in a timely manner.
Some of the load balanced networks involved are routed on the Sup720s, the rest are routed on FWSM modules in the same chassis. Problems occur only with VLANs routed on the Sup720s; all VLANs routed on the FWSMs fail over without issue.
Investigation has shown that this is due to a proportion of the ARP table entries not being updated in the Sup720 and (with the default 4 hour ARP table timeout) subsequently requiring a manual flush of the "wrong" ARP entries.
Testing by throwing GARPs at both the FWSM and the Sup720 has revealed the following:
we can quite happily throw ~200 GARPs per second at the FWSM and all the relevant ARP table entries are updated with the correct MAC address. This fits with the sucessful failovers for any FWSM routed networks. however, repeating the same test with a VLAN routed on the Sup720 results in GARPs being dropped by the Sup720. The Sup720 keeps discarding a proportion of GARPs until we drop the rate of GARP to <~75 per second. We're not rate-limiting ARP anywhere in the Sup720 - hardware or otherwise - and the FWSM handles the rate of GARP without issue. Is there any built-in restriction on the Sup720 we're not aware of that would cause the observed behaviour, is it configurable.

I have one specific trouble with Catalyst 3560CG switch and Stardom reserved industrial controller. Controller has 2 processors, one of them after(!) negotiation become main with IP 192.168.1.1, other one stays in reserve with IP 192.168.1.129. If main one shuts down, spare one becomes main with IP 192.168.1.1. This perfectly works with DLINK and MOXA level 2 switches, but fails with Catalyst 3560, because spare one cannot even connect to switch port. I don't know the exact reason of it, but i suspect, that it happens because of before negotiation both controllers have ip 192.168.1.1 (i know, that it is wrong and weird, but so it goes). First of them correctly connects to switch port, which goes up and passes pings. Second processor tries to connect to switch port, which goes several times up and very soon down, then processor lefts his tries to connect to anybody and become idle. The switch seems to some way check IPs of 1-st and 2-nd port packets, and shuts down 2-nd port. I have connected via hyperterminal and tried to disable some level 3 functions and checks of the switch, but this wasn't useful. how exactly(or at least approximately) should i configure a switch to make this bundle work?

I have an issue where I'm seeing output discards on pretty much all my ports configured for QoS. The switches are cisco WS-C3750V2-48PS running 12.2(50)SE1. There are four switches stacked using stack cables. The QoS implemeted was auto-qos with no modifications to the standard config. All ports are in queue-set 1. The phones connected are Cisco 7942's. Already did the standard check for speed duplex mismatch, crc's, runts, giants, etc...No discards before the QoS was applied. No bug ID's I could find regarding these switches and this IOS version. The one thing noticed is that 99% of all the drops are from queue's 2 and 4 or 1 and 3 doing the below command.
**I've limited the cut and paste as to not clutter the discussion until someone requests something else**

After opening up Solarwinds NPM, I noticed that a few of my interfaces had lots of discards (who knows how long it's been sets the counters were reset)
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/25description Etherchannel to MamaCassswitchport trunk encapsulation dot1qswitchport mode trunkswitchport nonegotiatepriority-queue outchannel-group 4 mode on
interface GigabitEthernet2/0/25description Etherchannel to MamaCassswitchport trunk encapsulation dot1qswitchport mode trunkswitchport nonegotiatepriority-queue outchannel-group 4 mode on
interface Port-channel4switchport trunk encapsulation dot1qswitchport mode trunkswitchport nonegotiate,It looks as if priority-queue was configured outbound on these interfaces, could this be the cause of the transmit discards which are now up to 79,835, I just reset the counters on the interfaces a little while ago.
I'm not the best in the world when it comes to QoS, we do have some VoIP phones, but they are only a specific network, and do not travel outside, since there are used mainly for VoIP training. I do know both interfaces are running the default of FIFO.

Today I've received reports of slow internet access/activity and have noticed myself that it seems a bit slow today. On the dashboard of our asa 5510 the "outside interface" traffic usage is running constantly high. It's at the top of the graph. How can I tell what is causing the spike in utilization. It usually runs at about 1500-2000 Kbps, and now it's up over 10,000.

I have a Router 2821 with c2800nm-advipservicesk9-mz.124-24.T1.bin and with a Cisco Integrated Service Engine(s) Cisco Unity Express 7.1.1 in slot 1 , this router shows a high cpu utilization.I think is a bug with the IOS , because there is no voicemail configured on the CUE, there is no traffic to the CUE , just traffic from:
- voice calls
- ospf
The ospf is not the cause of the high cpu , because the high cpu utilization appears before I put the ospf proccess on the router.

I've been searching high and low for a "blank" stencil to fill in module and WIC areas of a 2821 router that I'm diagraming. Where I can get a hold of something that will work? It seems that Cisco is somewhat lax lately on their visio stencil offerings.

We've got a cisco 2821 router which periodically stops routing all traffic. It seems to happen about once every 2 weeks, and I can't find anything that could be causing it. There are no entries in the log and the router stays up and running but requires a restart to begin processing traffic again. We're running 12.4(13r)T11.Any thoughts, or troubleshooting steps to track this down?

I start configuring Cisco 2821 router for multicast . First short description and attached sheme explanation. Let we say I have small network with 100 users. One router and Cisco switch 3560. Two VLAN’s, one for data another for multicast. Data from internet works fine but now I want to connect multicast servers (or source of more multicast streams) from another subnet. Router have three interfaces.I expect there should be no problems with multicast configuration, but unfortunately it is not like I expect. What I did ?
First step: enable multicast routing
Second step: on both interfaces (Fe 0/1 and Fe 0/2) - ip pim sparse-mode
Third step: configure switch that users are connected to access port in VLAN 222 (temporary to see if multicast work)
When I start VLC on computer nothing happend. If I try to connect computer on same subnet where is source of multicast streams it works fine.What I am doing wrong ? Is there anything about routing ? All subnets are directly connected. RP is not needed if I have one router or ?

I have just bought myself a Cisco 2821 ISR.At present in my home I have a Cisco 2621XM. Fast Ethernet 0/0 is connected to a 3524XL as a trunk to provide my LAN with inter-vlan routing. it works great. Fast Ethernet 0/1 is connected to my ISP's cable modem and uses the command "Ip address dhcp" to get an IP and all other info from my ISP.FA 0/1 is Ip nat outside and the FA 0/0 and all sub interface like 0/0.1 .24 .168 etc all ip nat inside.I get intervlan routing and access to the internet via this router.I have this 2821 to replace the 2621XM as I plan to run CME on it and want gigabit routing on my vlans as at the moment on the 2621 routing between vlans it at half duplex or seems to be.I have configured the 2821 to ip nat outside on gig 0/0 and ip nat inside on gig 0/1 and all of the sub interfaces (same setup as my 2621 but with gig ethernet)I have no access to the internet at all but I can ping www.google.co.uk and other domain names from the terminal session when I am connected to the 2821 via the console or telnet/SSH. the gig 0/0 has an IP assigned from my ISP too but no other nodes on the network can ping outside.Am I missing something here? the version of IOS is V 15.
My access list goes someting like
access-list 1 permit 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
access-list 100 permit ip 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any
access-list 100 permit ip 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255 any
and so on
I still cannot access the internet.....

I have a Cisco 2821 Router. Its ethernet Interface(E1) is connected to an ISP's Gateway.The outside interface IP is 207.x.x.1, The ISP has given 6 public IPs (202.x.x.1- 202.x.x.6) to use in LAN.
I have configured the router`s Internal Interface(E0) with a public IP address. (i.e. 202.x.x.1)
My Internal LAN PCs are in a private range of 192.168.1.0/24 subnet. Now I wanted my PC users to access the Internet while the Routers public IP remains on internal interface. How can I do the same?

I have a 5412zl 10.215.x.x/16 Most of the connections on this switch are on vlan1. B9 is the port which is connected to a Cisco 2821 Router. The port on that end is GE0/1. The port on the cisco side is not a trunk but configure with an ip of 10.215.1.30/24 Its part of a some ip access group. The network that i now sit on is a 172.x.x.x/24 (behind cisco router, about 3 hops to that main 2821)We current have a system on my side that talks to a server on the 10.215. that has no issues. I'm trying to access some switches on the 10.215. and have had no luck reaching them.
Here is the access list that i found that port is configured to use:
permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.18.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.18.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.14.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 172.14.0.0 0.0.255.255 permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.255 permit ip 10.215.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 permit ip 10.254.0.0 0.0.255.255 192.168.20.0 0.0.0.255 I would think the first permit would allow me to get through to the 10.215 side but maybe i need to set something up on the hp size to let it know how to get back? I'm very new to this stuff.

Currently I have a network that looks like this:
ASA5510 - - - Internet - - - ASA5510
| |
EIGRP EIGRP

2821 -----------MPLS----------1841
BGP
The MPLS connection is currently down, I'm trying to run a failover Site-to-Site VPN over the internet. All of the examples I've read have both connections involved in the failover coming out of one device. Since I'm not working that way, what is going to be the best way to failover? Do I need to set up some sort of IP SLA in the config? Or can I somehow weight routes in EIGRP in a way that the connection will failover from Internet to MPLS when the MPLS goes down and vice versa when the MPLS connection comes back up?

My 2821 router has an arp table with the wrong ip to Mac mappings. The impact is that I can reach any host in the 10.1.1.1 subnet. I can reach hosts in the 192.168.35.0 just fine. [code] It is as if the 192.168.35.1 device is answering all arp requests as a proxy arp or something. Clear arp-cache nor clear ip arp on my 2821 have any affect.

I have a 2821 Router, with a VWIC2-2MFT card in it, with two T1s going into that card. The two T1s are a bundled MPLS line.
I then have a cable modem connection going into the gigabit Ethernet GE 0/1 port on the router.
Right now, the cable modem provides a backup connection in case the T1s go down.
What I was wondering is if there was a way to 'combine' the bandwidth from the two T1s with the cable modem?

Basically I run 3 voice gateways on 2821 routers. In two of my routers I've had fan failures, one router has had two fans die and one has had just the one.
I was going to buy the offical Cisco fan replacement kit but then I thought with such as high failure rate I'd rather buy something else and better guarentee the service to my call centres.
So, what i'm asking is:
- Is there any reason why I cannot procure a standard 80mm 12V fan with a better rating (cooling and reliability) and install this in my 2821's?
I understand this may invalidate any warranties but mine have long expired.
