Cisco WAN :: ATM Soft Pvc Across T3 And T1 Backup?
May 3, 2006
I am trying to create a VBR soft pvc across a T3 and T1 backup link, but I am confused about what values to use for PCR, SCR and MCR. If I use high values for the T3, what will happen when this link is down and the soft PVC reroutes across the T1? I would like to use percents (%) for the values, i.e. voice can use 25% of the link, then it would make more sense when using the backup T1 link.
We have an installation of Cisco Prime LMS 4.1 soft appliance on VMware and i would like to ask if it is possible to backup the database on an external drive other than the 'local' LMS hard disk.
I have to install Prime LMS 4.2 on ESX customer infrastructure (ova image as soft appliance). The customer would like to know if LMS 4.2 is compatible with his backup agents :
I try to upgrade LMS 4.2 to LMS 4.2.1 on a soft appliance and i got this error. To upgrade from LMS 4.2 to LMS 4.2.1:
lms/admin# conf t lms/admin(config)# repository myrepo lms/admin(config-Repository)# url disk://opt lms/admin(config-Repository)# end lms/admin# application upgrade Cisco_Prime_LAN_Management_Solution_4_2_1upgrade.tar.gz myrepo Save the ADE-OS running configuration?(yes/no) [yes]? yes Generating configuration... Saved the ADE-OS running configuration to startup successfully Initiating Application Upgrade... % Local file not found lms/admin#
While running the install wizard of soft appliance LMS 4.1 it asks for hostname and also the domain during the install. Is the hostname suppose to be fully qualified domain name exp: foo.blah.com or just hostname without fqdn exp: foo? Reason why I ask is when I ran the following command below in the shell it doesn't look like it is setup correctly. Also if I did the install without my hostname in dns first will this mess up my install?
Before nearly four years we have purchased 4 Cisco ASA 5500 Device for our organization.Out of these four device currently two are active in field and other two we kept as a spare.Now, in one active device we are facing very rare and strange issue.
The device automatically soft reboot once in nearly 60 days and we do not have any pre or post symptoms of this incident only server logs providing us this information.The device itself located in very controlled environment in a data center where physical tampering or temperature waviness is not possible.
We also asked one Cisco Expert from data center but still issue is not solved.Before two month, using remote syslog service we also started log redirection to a server so that when such incident occurs we have something to analyze but it is worthless log has nothing to tell us.
My questions are
1. "It is a hardware fault or software issue?"
2. "Is it possible with Cisco 5500 that automatically it reboots due to some internal hardware/software issue, if yes how we can trap or monitor it?
I have a new installation of LMS 4.2 on the Soft Appliance and seem ot be only able to configure backups to the local disk? There is no option to select any of the configured repositories like there is in ACS. I can backup to /local disk, after change to filesystem as below:
chgrp casusers -R /local disk chmod 0775 /local disk
But the issue is, how to I get this off the box in an automated fashion so it can be part of our corporate backup schedule?
I am trying to setup prime LMS 4.2 with a pair of soft appliance. As I understand that HA is possible with the use of veritas/vmware for windows/solaris; I was wondering what are the possible high availability options available with a pair of prime LMS appliances? Can it form active/secondary with data synchronization/data redundancy of the LMS on top of the traditional backup/restore of the lms?
We recently upgraded to higher speed internet and were to "reset" our modem, which is PCI Soft Data Fax Modem With SmartCP.How does one "reset" their modem?
I have a rather complex issue that involves a Cisco softswitch, a Cisco router configured for BGP routing, a L2 Cisco switch, and two RAD IPMUXs.I am including a flat diagram that illustrates the layer 2 connections. On the diagram, the number adjacent to the vertical connection bar is the vlans allowed on that connection, either switchport access or trunk.
I use BGP routing on the router to advertise various routes. The issue is that the routes for the RAD IPMUX216 and RAD24 are both being advertised correctly and can be seen from remote sites. For example, from any remote site, I can ping any address on vlan 60 such as the switch, router, and IMMUX216 IPs. However, I can only ping the vlan 61 IPs for the router and switch, but not the RAD24. Even from the Softswitch and Router, I cannot ping the vlan 61 ip of the RAD24, 172.22.248.6. I can ping the softswitch from the router and vice-versa.
Here is a flat diagram for the network with some snippets of code. I can provide more info if needed. I changed the routable IPs just to hide some of our actual info. If I ping 172.22.248.6 from the softswitch and then issue the "sh arp" command, I get:
Victoria-SW#sh arp Protocol Address Age (min) Hardware Addr Type Interface Internet 172.22.248.1 0 0016.4650.c411 ARPA Vlan61 Internet 172.22.255.6 - 0019.5678.7d43 ARPA Vlan80 Internet 172.22.248.6 0 Incomplete ARPA Internet 172.22.240.14 - 0019.5678.7d42 ARPA Vlan60 Internet 172.22.240.13 0 0020.d239.01a0 ARPA Vlan60 Internet 172.22.248.5 - 0019.5678.7d44 ARPA Vlan61 Internet 172.22.240.1 69 0016.4650.c411 ARPA Vlan60
Ok I have a toshiba satellite with the above stated modem in place, however I am not sure if the modem is wireless capable. I have been trying to figure out how to connect it to my network.
One of the many things that I liked about the e4200 over my olg 54GL was the fact that I could reboot it remotely. However, I've recently had a few problems that only a full power down would fix. In addition, I've noticed that the DCHP client table doesn't reset when I do a soft reboot. Is this intentional? Is the soft reboot not really a full reboot? Can it be made a real reboot?
After the upgrade of LMS 3.2 to LMS 4.01 everthing works. After i fixed my last problem (syslog time issue). I´d saw that the automated system backup doesn´t work. I´d tried to backup the system by script. Than i find out that the perl.exe is damaged (0KB). So than i copied the perl.exe from my old Cisco Works Server to the new Server. Than i tried to make a Backup and get the mentiond error ...
D:CiscoWorksCSCOpxin>perl.exe D:CiscoWorksCSCOpxinackup.pl d:Temp ew install ************************************************************ Backup to 'd:/Temp/newinstall' started at: [Wed Oct 19 09:39:50 2011] [Wed Oct 19 09:39:50 2011] ERROR(375): No database files are available for the installed applications; nothing to back up.

Why does Cisco recommend a configuration of originate-only on the ASA with multiple peers configured and the answer-only to the other end? Shouldn't it work as Bi-Directional ?
[URL]
The only scenario I see which could break is if both peers try to establish a VPN at the same time to the ASA. Is there any other reason ?
One of my branch offices is connected to an ADSL line as well as a VDSL line.Since I really don't need the ADSL line I came up with the idea to use it as a backup line.So I searched google and found this nice little article URL. I wonder if the router will switch back to the primary ISP if the primary line comes up again?
Any one see the pronl;em where LMS 4.2.2 cannot backup an ASA 5525-X (UKHSL-N01-AFW02)..The Inventory collection is fine, to a point.I have applied all updates LSM etc. [code]
if i enable Controller Configuration Backup is that included in the server backup? and can the controller configs be specifically extracted from the server backup?
We have cisco works LMS 3.1 and the server have very problems, we need format the server and reinstall the Cisco Works, when I doin backup and restore of data LMS We lost the licenses? or when we restore the data in the server we have the same licenses? or get the new licenses to cisco?
at the moment I have a 888 router that works fine, I want to configure backup (I already have configure ISDN backup but the performance it's to poor), and I want to use an other router 887 (that I already have) with adsl.
My idea is to configure the second router as stand alone gateway, and confiure in the first router a "ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 VLAN1 192.168.0.253 100".But I know that this second route is used only in case the interface status of primary route goes down but not in case fault only protocol.
configure a better routing or faulting procedure?
----------------------------------- 888 VLAN1 192.168.0.254 ATM0.1 1.1.1.1 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ATM0.1 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 VLAN1 192.168.0.253 100 ----------------------------------- 887 VLAN1 192.168.0.253 ATM0.1 2.2.2.2 ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 ATM0.1 -----------------------------------
implement backup WAN links to complement the metro Ethernet links we currently use so we have some redundancy. These will most likely be a VPN over an Internet service but might be another Ethernet type service, the medium shouldn't really matter I wouldn't think. What I am looking for input on is what is the best way to implement this? Would I just set costs so that the backup is only used when the primary goes down, or should I create new OSPF area for the backup links?
Currently the core switches that are also our routers are 3750G stacks running ip services. We are getting ready to install new firewalls at each location that will become the gateways for the vlans currently on the core switches to give us much more control over segmentation, and because of this I am thinking that it may make sense to then move the OSPF instance from the core to the firewalls. In the drawing I did not show the access layer switches off of the core, and the MOE circuits actually terminate into a 3550-12T switch before the core. I think I will actually eliminate those 3550-12T switches and go straight into the core. This is a current state drawing, so does not include the backup links I am planning.
want to connect three networks with each other via two media one ethernet/fiber optic and other through wireless as backup link.how can i connect these three networks so that if my ethernet/ fiber optic connection fails than computer on networks can still communcate via wireless link (i mean if ethernet/fiber optic fails then wireless link should automatically be established/
Platform: LMS 3.2.1 with RME 4.3.2 on Windows 2003.I'm having a problem with several devices that were backing up fine until this week - suddenly they aren't backing up their running configurations, but RME is fetching their startup configurations fine and VTP backups are fine. At first I thought it might be timeouts, so I used inline edit to incease the telnet timeout for a device to 180s. However, the job fails well within this time period (debug shows on i/o error?). My order of protocols is SSH, Telnet, TFTP. I took a stab in the dark that this suggested a database problem so I picked one at random and deleted it from DCR, and readded it and it worked. However, for the other 48 devices affected it did not.
I'm wondering if I need to do anything to the RME database to get things back to where they were? Do I need to reinitialize the RME database, and if I do that what do I lose? [code]
I have an ASA 5510 running 8.4 with dual ISPs setup on 2 different interfaces: outside(primary),backup(backup). I also have a site to site VPN to another ASA in another city. The VPN is now setup on the outside interface and works fine. What I wanted to do is to make the VPN run over the backup interface only.
So, I modified the the crypto map on the remote side to use the backup interface IP and created a tunnel-group for it. I then created a crypto map for the backup interface and enabled ikev1 on it. The default route is set to use the outside interface so I created a static route that routes traffic bound for the outside interface on the remote side to the backup interface default gateway. I can get the tunnels to establish but no traffic is passing through them. I though then that I need a NAT for the tunnel traffic to I created a NAT as well but still no traffic passed. I tried the packet-tracer and it said the traffic was allowed and from the show crypto ipsec sa command I can see the tunnel setup but no traffic will go across it.
Cisco ACS 5.x appliance?How to back up Config?What is best way, via TFTP? COPY Startup-config tftp:?COPY Running-config tftp:?I currently use Solarwinds CatTolls to back my Cisco Switches, can I use this for Cisco ACS also?
I am facing a failed issue when restoring the WCS Database. Below is the error i get, does any one out there facing it before?

we have ACS 4.1 appliance and will do upgrade to 4.2. We need backup user database and system settings.via Gui I am not sure what all we backed up - dmp file seems to be only encrypted user databse but it can be crypted back up file.
How is possible do complete backup of current machine (user database and system config)? Is it possible via Gui or has to be done CLI access?After upgrade will be on machine previous config and database or or will be appliance completelly re-imaged?
I am trying to create a backup tunnel from an ASA 5505 to a pix 501 in the case of the Main ISP failing. The Pix external side will stay the same, but not quite sure how I can create a new crypto map and have it use the Backup ISP interface without bringing down the main tunnel.
My first thought was to add the following crypto map to the configuration below: [code]
