Cisco Switching/Routing :: Checking Internet Speed Directly In The 1841 Router?
Nov 2, 2011
I want to know is it possible to check Internet speed directly in the cisco router thru any command or activating any service in the cisco router?.As it is seen most of the times internet speed offer by ISP is different as compared to clients.and Clients most oftenly not satisfied with internet speed The problem is that our ISP has given us 100MB leaased line.But when we deployed in production network the speed is same as DSL.We have reported this issue to ISP they then carried out Iperf test by connecting laptop directly with the ISP router.They have tested the speed and it shows about 94-96 Mbps and argu that it is up to the mark and there is problem at your side(i.e our internal network).Now our internal network has cisco 1841 router connected directly to ISP 3825 cisco router.Our router has minimum configuration as required to pass traffic out and in.Our internal 1841 router is connected to switch to which different clients are connected.We have performed some online tests using different speed checking websites and also perform real time tests by uploading and downloading files.The speed is much low as compared to 100Mbps and it is nearly or slightly higher then as DSL connection. how can we check internet speed in the specified scenario?Is there any command or service available in cisco router to check internet speed as we want to check ISP connection speed directly thru 1841 router?what about authenticity of online speed checking websites?Any specialize software/tool you recommend to check Internet speed in specified scenario?

I have 1841 router with Gigabit Ethernet HWIC with One SFP Slot installed in it and connected via SX Multimode cable to 2950 switch. I have 5 VLans in trunk. The question is what will be the speed rate between VLans - 1 Gbps or less?
The case:
Port 1 assigned to a VLan10 and Port 2 Assigned to a VLan20 on 2950 switch.
InterVLan routing is configured on 1841.
Computer A is connected to Port 1 and Computer B is connected to Port 2 on the switch.
What be a file transfer rate from Computer A to Computer B assuming that NICs on both computers are 1000Base-T.

We have branches all over the country and we take different links like fiber (Ethernet) radio links etc. Now sometimes when we ping from branch WAN ip to its gateway or to the aggregation router (ASR 1000) in this case, we see some drops, but see no problem in actual HTTP or lotus communication.
What i want to know, that now a days, should we rely on ping results to determine link quality ? or should i use tools like iperf to basically see if the link is actually treating tcp and udp packets properly, I have heard this countless times that normally network devices like Cisco routers, even without any QOS, will give low priority to ping packets.

I have a WS-C3560G-24PS service as a distribution switch with six (6) WS-C2950T-24 connected to it. In looking at the utilization on the inter connect links no one is running close to a gig speed and this includes the link between this switch and the core. The CPU load (6%) and memory utilization (30%) on the switch do not seem bad so what else does one watch to see if it needs an upgrade?
We are starting tohave discussions about any needed upgrades on the network. I have an ocassional user that complaines about low performance but looking through the network I can find nothing glaring on a consistent basis that says an upgrade is warranted. I am however looking at things such as the above. Utilization on links, CPU, memory, etc.

I've never had a router's CPU suddenly hit 99% and just stay like it for hours even after a reboot. This router really does nothing with regards to CPU, I'm looking at it's CPU history (via SolarWinds Orion NPM software that we use) and it is arounf 1-3% all the time for the past 2 years.
I did a show debugigng and it seems no debugging is running

We currently have a Cisco 1841 router with version 12.4(1c) of IOS using image c1841-ipbase-mz.124-1c.bin. Our goal is to make it so our router can fully support IPv6. The current IOS version cannot. I've seen a site that seems to indicate 12.4T does support with IP Base image but recently had Cisco tell me with the latest IOS release 15.1.4.M4 that I have to use either the "Advanced Enterprise Services" or "Advanced IP Services" image. Did Cisco just remove IPv6 from IPBase in later IOS releases?
Also I've seen conflicting specs on the max amount of Flash and DRAM the router can support. The following link shows that 384MB is the max for DRAM and 128MB max for flash. We're looking to upgrade ours from 128MB and 32MB respectively but as mentioned I've seen it where higher amounts are supported. In fact we bought a backup 1841 to have and it has a 256MB Flash card in it.URL
Last but not least. Where can I find a straightforward documention of this situation where we may have to upgrade our Flash and DRAM and then upgrading the IOS?

I have got a l2 link of 512 kbps from two different ISP. I want to aggegrate the bandwidth of this connection so that I can feel like having 1 mbps connection. I am not actually talking about load balancing, but bandwidth/link aggegration. Can we have the solution of failover with different vlan from different isp ? Can we be able to make the link as a single link.

establishing a Static NAT on an 1841 router.
I'm at a FOX affiliate TV station, and in order to connect our EAS Device to the internet & Fox Splicer, I need to setup a Statio NAT, so we picked up an 1841 on eBay.
I've done a little configuration in HyperTerminal.
I've done these ip addresses:
FE0/0 10.1.10.13 this is the subnet our EAS device is on
FE0/1 10.110.81.174 this is the subnet of the Fox Splicer.
I need to have NAT translate 10.1.10.11 to 10.110.81.170 and I also need to set a route for 10.110.81.0/24 pointing to 10.110.81.161

due to upcoming changes to our network I'd like to be able to pass vlans across the FE ports of a Cisco 1841 router.1 port would go to a managed switch and then to local devices on different VLANs.the 2nd port would go upstream to a Cisco 3825 at a different location which would then connect to the internet.due to monitoring behind the Cisco3825 we would like all NAT to occur on the 3825.
what I would like to happen is this example device connected to port 7 on managed switch gets an IP (10.0.7.10) from the Cisco 1841 in VLAN 7 (10.0.7.0/24).traffic from that device goes to the switch, then in f0/1 on the 1841 and out f0/0 still with the same IP info, no NAT occuring.traffic is received on the 3825 port 0/1 and then NAT occurs and out port 0/0 to the internet.

The issue is occuring on our local LAN where my ARP requests are being modified after a period of time by the router for one host. I'm finding that the host will work fine with the correct MAC IP pairing for a period of time and then about 15-30 minutes later, the arp table is changing so the associated mac/IP address is now the mac address of the router interface.
The FastEthernet 0/1 port has no ip proxy-arp enabled and is set with ip nat inside.This only started happening after restarting the router, however the running config was saved as the startup config prior to the restart.I've tried hard-coding the entry with the command arp 10.15.4.190 c82a.1459.0579 ARPA however that is not working as expected.
The device is an 1841 ISR with the advanced IP Services bundle loaded. Is there some way that the router is viewing my host (provides DNS, Directory Services) as a intrustion attempt and somehow rejecting the packets?

We have a 1841 Cisco router for one of our remote sites and we have the GRE over IPSec tunnel on it (with our datacenter router) for the connectivity. The LAN facing interface becomes UP/Down (status 'UP', Protocol 'Down'). When I login the router and 'shut' and then 'no shut' the interface, the interface becomes UP and everything starts to work. Traffic starts to flow across it. But after some time, some hours or sometimes some days, the interface is again back to up/down status. The router is connected to a non-Cisco switch. I do see some CRC's increasing very slowly, but apart from that there seems nothing wrong with the interface in sho int fas0/0 command:
!
RTR01#sho int fas0/0
FastEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is down
Hardware is Gt96k FE, address is 0026.cb91.ee48 (bia 0026.cb91.ee48)

I have a CAT 3560 connected to a ISR 2911 The 3560 has 2 subnets ( 192.168.1.0 /24 and 10.10.10.0 /24) The 2911 has interface GigabitEthernet0/1 on the 192.168.1.0 /24 and another GigabitEthernet0/0 on a WAN connection 172.16.7.246 I need to NAT both the 192.168.1.0 /24 and the 10.10.10.0 /24 to the single address 172.16.7.246 I have to use route-maps . I have IPSec VPN's and ZBF on the 2911 My problem is the NAT does not work for the 10.10.10.0 /24 network!Why?is my only option to use trunking between the 3560 and 2911 and subinterfaces on the 2911?

My Data Center has one single core switch where is connected several servers, one port is the link to the router wan and other port is the link to the FW, my boss wants to install 2 nexus in order to replace the single switch. All my network has only one address, for example 192.168.10.0/24 if I connect two nexus 7010 in VPC and Domain, each nexus is going to has 2 modules with 48 port 10/100/1000 rj45 and i wan to connect servers directly to each nexus, with this figure i'm going to have a group of servers connected in two different nexus, Do they can have the same network 192.168.10.0/24 considering that the nexus are in the same vdc and vlan and have only one gateway for both groups? If the answer is positive, which nexus would be the gate way for that address, the primary or secondary? Or i must have a different address for both group of servers, i mean for example 192.168.10.0/24 and 192.168.12.0/24?thus each nexus would be the gateway for that new address?
To have two nexus connected by VPC in a Domain mean that one computer connected to one nexus can share the same address or vlan with other computer connected to the other nexus????

We have a 3750X VTP Server and the rest of the switches are clients.
Due to cabling issues, we have a switch (Switch F) that we can't connect directly to the 3750X so we have it connected through another switch. Everything is set to VTP client with the correct domain and password but this not-directly-connected switch isn't receiving any VTP VLANs.
Anything I need to do on Switch D so that Switch F can receive the VTP updates?

I've moved a Cisco 887 router from a site where it was used to dial up on an ADSL line to a new site where we have a EFM circuit which terminates at a Cisco 1841 router managed by our ISP. I therefore need to re-configure our 887 router to work as a conduit from our servers back to the Cisco 1841 as its gateway.
I have asked from our ISP and they told me that i need to configure the 887 to use IP address 176.35.140.65 255.255.255.248 and its gateway should be 176.35.140.70. That's great advice in theory but I don't know how to configure this correctly
Our internal network is using subnet 192.168.42.XX which will need to be retained for local devices.

A specific switch port which happens to be part of a 2 switch 3750 Switch Stack is seeing multiple CDP packets from 3 extra switch port interfaces that are not directly connected. Noteworthy is that the far end devices have the correct CDP entries and I physically confirmed at least two of those connections that lead to the switch "upstream to the culprit switch". Tricky part is that its production so room for maneuvering is limited. At some point I disabled all Ports save for the real uplink and the problem momentarily disappeared. Re-enable the interfaces problem resurfaces. Is there an explanation, technique to eliminate the culprit with minimal disruption?

I have a Cisco 7206VXR running 12.4(24)T3 IOS. It is configured with WCCPv2 using L2 mask redirection. I am using service groups and associated extended ACLs to select which subnets I want to redirect port 80 traffic from.
It is working fine for the subnet 192.168.1.0/24....
int gi0/2
ip wccp 10 redirect in
ip address 192.168.1.99 255.255.255.0
... however, there is OSPF running between the router and a Mikrotik device directly connected to this interface. The gateway addresses for all the client subnets are on the Mikrotik. Traffic from other subnets, e.g. 192.168.2.0/24, 192.168.3.0/24 come in on this interface and I want to redirect those too. But it appears that the redirection doesn't work for those subnets (I don't see any hits on the relevant ACL for any subnet except 192.168.1.0/24).
It seems like the router only wants to redirect traffic for subnets that it has an IP address in itself. Admittedly, all of the example configs i've found on cisco.com are for redirecting traffic from directly connected subnets but I can't find anything that denies thie possibility of redirecting any traffic that comes in on a given interface.
The question is, is this how WCCPv2 redirection works? i.e., the router must have an IP address in the subnet to be redirected?

we have the following setup for our network :
UserNetwork - ASA5550 - WAN Router 2911 - ISP Netowrk - Branch Routers 877s / 1941s
Since last week we started noticing this problem that the branch users started to complain of slow application response.. After verifying it with the ISP and middle network we noticed that if i ping from my machine (ie usernetwork) to the WAN Router interface (facing the ASA) , i get time outs.. which is strange cause this is directly connected to it via ethernet cable.

I am using Solawinds syslog and trying to get our Cisco routers send syslogs to our syslog server. I followed the procedure on Configuring Cisco Devices to Use a Syslog Server from [URL] Our Cisco swtches are all sending syslog messages but not the routers. I compared the config with our access switches but can't seem to find the problem:
Sample router config:
service nagleno service padservice tcp-keepalives-inservice tcp-keepalives-outservice timestamps debug datetime msec localtime show-timezoneservice timestamps log datetime msec localtime show-timezoneservice password-encryption!hostname WWF-RT1boot-start-markerboot-end-marker!security authentication failure rate 10 logsecurity passwords min-length 8logging buffered 4096logging rate-limit all 10logging console critical!aaa new-model!!
[Code] .......
is there a command that prevents the router from sending the syslog to the server?

I am just setting up a simple scenario with a 1841. Server @ 172.31.1.1 cannot ping 172.31.0.254 or 172.31.0.105. It can ping 172.31.1.250. The router can, on the other hand, ping devices on both networks. This is just for testing routing theory so I don't know why hosts on either side of the network cannot ping each other.
I am only using the FastEthernet interfaces on Router 1841.
