Network Crash - Ping Tests Won't Respond To Anything?
Feb 6, 2013
About a week ago, our network started to experience complete failure.
Our Equipment:
Router: Netgear FVS336.xxx
Switch: Dlink DES-1024D (we have 6 of these switches in our building)
Wifi Routers: Dlink DIR-601, Linksys wrt54g, wrt54gv2
Computersservers: 40x
Copiersfax: 5x
Wireless clients: (iphones, laptops) at least 30
All has been working together in harmony for many years.Fast forward to last week when my hell began with intermittent crashes.Not sure what's causing the problem.When it happens, everybody loses their internet, the ability to communicate over the network; ping tests won't respond to anything (including the router) that exists on the lan, even with a static IP against other statics.In visually inspection of the switches and router, they seem to be happily blinking away with no apparent issue (visually).The only way I've been able to fix the problem is by power cycling the router.About 1 second after doing that, we're back in action for 2-6 hours (very unpredictable).I never had to power cycle any other devices)
Steps I've taken in troubleshootingeliminating potential culprits:
Replaced the router with a spare (new) FVS318G
Replaced the power supply for the router (suspected because problem remained after router swap)
Replaced cable going from router to lan switch
Removed linksys wifi router from network (the router had needed power cycling weekly and was old. So I unplugged it)
Removed Dlink wifi router from network (I hate dlink routers, so removed it).I'm at a loss.

I hope an easy question, in the WAN profile of our SA540 I have IP Aliases configured for a block of IP addresses we have. The active 2 IP addresses plugged into the actual RoadRunner modem respond fine to ping, the other three I have programmed to the WAN interface are not responding as I would think they should. Have I overlooked something? The "Block IP on WAN Interface" is disabled and pings back fine.

I don't do a lot of networking however during a cisco lesson the other day my lecturer briefly touched upon loop-back tests, would it be okay for somebody to very imply sum up exactly what loop-back tests do in a couple of lines and how they are carried out? (not in detail, so literally for example - a wire is put in from one end of the network to the other etc.) I don't really understand all the different wiring types etc.

I have many WiSM WLC's running 7.0.116.0. One WLC was rebooted few days ago but there was no crash file and nothing in logs say why this issue happened.There was a power problem at the same time the WLC rebooted (some switches and PE's was rebooted as well) but if it is a power issue why only one WLC inside the WiSM rebooted and the other WLC is still working fine with no reboot?I have 5 WiSM modules connected to the same 6500 box, only one WLC was rebooted which indicates a crash but no crash file registered for it.Is there anyway I can find the reason why that WLC was rebooted?

I have several windows 2003 virtualized on linux + kvm envirorment.One of them has a strange and unpredictable behaviour: windows 2003 network stop to work.Suddenly it's not possible to ping it. The services are not reachable.Usually it's enough to disable the network card and enable it again.At first I thought something about virtualization but there is another windows 2003 on the same server, with a network card on the same bridge, using the same drivers.

We have a NETGEAR ProSafe™ 802.11g Wireless VPN Firewall FVG318 set up at work with a static IP so we can do a Voice Over IP from our sales office.Everything works fine until I plug in a computer that is connected to our digital printer, then the PC stays on the internet for a while, then crashes the connection.Once I plug in the PC to the network, the rest of the network has issues.

I am in charge of taking care our small office network (about 25 PC's) and encountered a problem the other day. I got a call that nothing network related was working. I went to look at the switches/router and everything appeared fine. After some troubleshooting i found if i unplugged the switch and connected directly the the router everything worked prefect. Reconnected the switch, network goes down again. I assumed it was the switch at first but then did a walk around and a laptop was in a weird frozen state. I unhooked the network cable and everything started working away like it should.

I am dealing with three office networks, all three have the same conflict. The error messages I get all say there are two devices assigning ip addresses. As soon as I get the computers communicating with each other, two seem to crash overnight, I suspect due to the conflict. Here is the rundown on the networks. All are windows networks - the problem I am having is file sharing mostly and printing.
Network A: server OS is XP Pro - SP3, four workstations, XP Pro-SP3, Windstream DSL and Netgear Router. I have already bridged the router on this one, and it did not correct the conflict.
Network B: Server OS - Windows7 SP1, three workstations all XP Pro SP3, ISP is Clear (formerly clearwire). Router is the old wired Linksys befsr41 v4.
Network C: server OS - XP Pro SP2, ISP - Clear, three workstations - two are XP ProSP3 one is XP Pro SP2. I have had less trouble with this network, but I suspect the conflict exists here as well.
I have tried to get a static IP address from Windstream where I have had my worst problems, but cannot seem to get one. I suspect we have the least expensive service option possible, and are possibly using a service designed for home use as opposed to business, as someone told me recently that getting a static IP address can be expensive. Is this true? Currently all networks have DHCP enabled, and the routers are set up to use DHCP. My thoughts were to disable DHCP and assign ip addresses manually.

I work in a school department and wanted to hardwire two computers in my class using a workgroup switch. I only had one data port in my class. The tech guy told me the switch could cause the entire network to crash. Is that true? I thought a switch was just a passthrough device.

My brother has an HP G60 from 2009 with windows 7 home premium and 64 bit operating system. Whenever he turns it on and connects it to the internet, the whole network crashes. My xbox, ipod, laptop, and the main desktop (Which we also just changed to a Dell one.)downstairs all cannot connect to the internet. This lasts from anywhere between 2 and 15 minutes and it continues to crash the internet in about 15 minute intervals as long as his computer is connected to the internet. No other devices in the house cause this as I can have all of my stuff connected and nothing happens. We have a Linksys WRT110 router but I don't think that or the modem is the problem as we have changed both multiple times. This has been happening for about a year ever since my oldest brother gave my brother the laptop.

We are running an FWSM on a 6509 with a SUP720. Firmware 3.2(18), in MultiContext Routed Mode, with shared MSFC.Everything runs fine on this baby most of them time, however occasionally without warning and with no specific pattern the Primary node will fail (as in completely stop responding) and the secondary will takover as active. Two get the primary up agian, I reset the hw-module and then no failover active on the secondary to return the primary as active. However, after this event, I start to experience strange issues with connectivity. Certain TCP src dst combinations will just not work.

I'm new to the site and for the past couple of days I've been trying to figure out why my connection is so slow. I only get about 180kbps of download speeds so I originally thought it was my internet, but I went to test my connection speed on speedtest.net and I get around 1mbps. I also checked my network utilization through task manager and I'm not even using 1% Any Ideas as to why I can't make full use of my connection?

is it possible with LMS 4.0 to do a simple reachability test for an IP address not based on device?The ip address I want to check for reacheability is not the management ip address I add in Inventory->Device Administration->Add->Device Properties->IP Address For example: I want to test the reachabilty of the IP-address 10.113.15.4, not management ip, it shall be an interface ip address.With the performance monitoring I want to test the reachability, if it fails continuously 2 times I want to get a notification with an low severity.After 6 continuously fails of the reachability test I want to get a notification with an medium severity and in the end after 12 continuously fails of the reachability test I want to get a notification with an criticaclc severity. The threshold configuration and the threshold criteria should not be the problem,the problem is where do/can I enter the corresponding ip address I want to test.

We're since long having a problem with a DSL internet connection. The connection goes down periodically, for short times, and when performing speed tests, the connection speed varies and is usually lower (0.7 Mbit/s) than what the ISP promises (1.5-2 Mbit/s). Moreover, what modem is being used seems to have an effect.Now, I want to trouble-shoot this and get some hard facts on the behaviour of the connection. I would like to do repeated speed tests over say 24 h or so. They should be done every 3 min or so (to catch short glitches).
My question is: what software tool can I use for this? I have been searching the internet for hours, downloading a handful of applications, without finding anything that I could use. There are loads of applications that log and graph the current upload and download speeds, but that's something else - I need a tool that downloads/uploads files from/to a server, in intervals specified by me (3 min), logging the result and presenting it graphically.

Att says they are giving us 3mb/sec but we get 300kbps and speed tests from anywhere say we get 2.5 to 2.9 mb/sec yet even on unlimited bandwidth downloads(like torrents) with thousands of seeds connected and a few peers they never get faster than 340kb/sec.

So I've noticed a big speed drop in my comcast internet. I went from routinely scoring over 20mbps on speedtest.net to around 11. Also, the upload test fails everytime. On every speed test site I've been to, the upload test completely fails. I haven't changed a thing so I have no clue why this would happen, but maybe it might have something to do with the speed decline.
I have an old WRT54G router that I've had for almost 10 years and I was thinking that maybe that was the problem. So I tried directly connecting my modem to my rig, but for whatever reason, I couldn't get it to work.
I can build unbeatable gaming rigs and program like crazy, but I just do not have networking in my skill set. It confuses the hell out of me and always seems to be completely random. What I can do to isolate and resolve my problem?
Oh, on one of the upload tests I got the following error.
"Trial measurement failed. Client can't send/receive UDP packs to server port 8601".

Do I correctly understand that when two ASA 5510 are in fail over pair, the switchover from primary to secondary if one interface of primary goes down shall happen ONLY if failover link is up? So when the fail over link is down and one interface on primary got down also, interface tests between the two ASAs still are being done , but secondary SHALL NEVER try to become active.
In this case why to make tests on data interfaces ? What is the reason to make them? If the knowledge of that some interfaces of primary became down comes through failover link - no need to make additional interface tests - primary will tell about the failure to secondary. If so should run no monitor-interface if name command to dis load devices and network by foolish tests?

It is good at times but usually it gets slow and web pages come up with "The web page is taking too long to respond". When I run Diagnose, sometimes I get the computer is correctly configured, but something is wrong with the DNS server (I dont know what that is). I have a NetGear CGD24G Wireless Router that was supplied by Charter when I got internet from them again. I also run Windows 7.

I have a Cisco 4404 WLC that is up, has green status light, the interfaces are showing activity. I see it connected to my Cisco 6500, (Sh port status) it shows connected and trunking,; I also see a lot of activity on the interfaces. Also it will not let me console in, I can console in on my other Cisco 4404 WLC's with out and issues, so I know my cables and configure are correct. The only change a I made today was the time zone. I noticed the time was off by a hour and noticed that the time zone wasn't set so I set it correctly. Shortly after that I saw the WLC go belly o up in my WCS. I tried rebooting the WLC several times without luck. Since I can not gain access via the console I can not really trouble shoot.

I have a DIR-655 (HW rev A2) that has worked mostly fine for a long time. Today I decided to do a firmware upgrade, and in preparation I backed up my custom config settings and did a hard reset via the factory reset button on the back of the unit.
Since then, the unit itself has been inaccessible from my computer. If I connect the DIR-655 and a PC with a network cable, the appropriate light goes on on the front of the router, but the client does not lease an IP address from the router and I can't access the router home page at 192.168.0.1.
I have tried the reset button again and also power-cycled multiple times, and I have tried connecting from multiple computers, all with the same unsuccessful results. how to "un-brick" the device?

I have an ASA 5510 and two IPS connections. I need ISP2 to take over when ISP1 does not respond. I have followed the following link ASA/PIX 7.x: Redundant or Backup ISP Links Configuration Example and as far as i can see this part is working. I disable interface for ISP1 and the routing table changes its static route to ISP2. When i enable ISP1 again the static route changes to ISP1. However no traffic flows to the outside. I have set up a nat rule that is the same as for wan1.

Cisco 851 router Apple Ipad 3 using IPSEC setp get this message The VPN server did not respond. I have tried Anyconnect that gives me Cannot verify server identity anyconnect can't verify the identity of ios-self-signed-certificate-1164042433 would you like to continue anyway? hit continue and it just goes off. I was asking if If get an ASA 5505 to replace my 851 it would work in my environment.
I have 15 computers accessing the web thru the 851. I host a web site on one of my servers. I have a static ip address. I also host exchange server and have remote web access to my exchange as well as remote outlook users. I can VPN thru the 851 using the cisco client on Windows 7 and vista and even xp. Would like to use the native windows client and get my iphones and ipads working. Can the ASA5505 support the above? Was also looking at the cisco 1841 how about that one?

In each case, the routers have functioned flawlessly for a period of 2 to 8 months, then suddenly begin to require daily to hourly reboots to keep the speed up, and often times fail to respond to any web activity whatsoever. Ping tests are intermittent, sometimes failing but other times succeeding while web sites remain unresponsiveFor three years I lived with two or more room mates at a time, each of us with our own computer (or 2) and all doing a lot of peer to peer downloading. I realize a router can overheat during heavy use like this, so buying new routers so regularly has seemed vaguely understandable. However it doesn't seem like that is the case in my most recent failure.I've lived alone for the past 3 months, and have owned the Belkin Play Max N600 HD since. I have NOT been P2P downloading or putting a heavy load on my router in any way (or so it seems). Yet as of about two weeks ago, it has suffered a major slowdown just like all of its predecessors. Yet my 30 mbps internet connection roars to life the moment I plug the modem directly into a computer.
My desktop remains on 24/7 but like I said before, I do not do constantdownloading/uploading. Both wired and wireless connections are effected equally, and I have always kept all my routers WPA encrypted.When websites become unresponsive on my Belkin today, it is usually after everything has been sitting idle for some time (overnight, or all day while I am at work). Speaking of work, today is a perfect exampleI remoted into my home desktop and was able to interact just fine, yet when I would launch a browser and try to load any website at all, I get absolutely nothing. I had to transfer a text document through DropBox (which also still worked) because I couldn't get Google Docs (or gmail) to load on the remote computer

I'm trying to set up an 802.1 q trunk between my layer 3 switch and ASA5520. I understand I need to create a subinterface to accomplish this and have done so. However, the subinterface does not respond to pings, and when I attempt to run the packet tracer on the firewall itself, I get a message saying Flow is denied by configured rule. But the strange thing is it shows the output interface as "np identity ifc":
(The VLAN in question is VLAN2 192.168.2.3 is the VLAN2 address on the switch). The ASA config is as follows:
ASA Version 8.2(5) <context>
hostname context2

interface GigabitEthernet0/0.2

I've been using my 2509 router as an access server for my 3 routers, 1 frame-relay (3640) and 4 switches for the past 2 months and it work great till this morning. As soon as the async lights on when i try to connect, it just hangs. It doesn’t respond to anything. No key hits not even disconnecting the console to where im connecting too. (from router to router) if i reboot the router with out the cord plug in (the async) i can use the router with all functions working great; But as soon as i connect the async cord.
The lights blink and poof router is gone. No response. i just cant figure how from one day to the next it doesn’t work.I haven't tried a different cable yet but i tried disconnecting all console connection and just left the plug in and boot. This works but as soon as i connect to any console port physically it gone. No response?i cleared all my configes and its blank and it still just doesn’t respond as soon as i connect any thing (after configuring all the basic)
ive tried these
line 1 8
no flush-at-activation
no login local
no modem Dialin
no exec
speed 9600
still no good?

I've been noticing that occasionally our 2nd Gen RV082 fails to allow internal admin management until a manual restart. After the restart, all seems to be fine and traffic/router is very responsive. The following describes typically how the issue occurs: Internet traffic is rather slow and unresponsiveContent is failing to load for end usersWebsite are loading but with images or css failing to loadWebsites fail to load and appear offline (not all, but some such as ebay for example)We recognize there is a problem, let's try to access the local router adminFails to load the log-in prompt, so we manually reboot the deviceAll is operational for now We are running Firmware Version: 2.0.0.19-tm.

How can I measure a respond time from a switchport to another? What I intend to do is to measure packets transmission from a server. I have a Cisco 3750G in stack, and the server is connecting to it with a 1GE NIC. How do I measure from Cisco prospective? Any tools available from Cisco to measure such respond time? I have a PRTG on bandwidth management on this particular server switchport and it is around 45-70Mbps, which is less than 10% of 1GE interface.

We are experiencing a lot of these RADIUS failed to respond messages on our WLC's leading to a lot of RADIUS server hopping within the WLC.We are using Cisco 5508's, 1142 AP's and a Microsoft NPS RADIUS backend. SSID is WPA2+802.1xThe first workaround to this problem was to disable aggressive failover on the WLC. But this is only a temporary fix, because in the end, there will be more than 3 consequetive clients, failing to authenticate to the WLAN network. As a result, the WLC will swap to the 2nd RADIUS server configured.When we dived into this a little bit more we saw the following messages being logged on the RADIUS backend at the time we saw the RADIUS messages on the WL:Event ID: 6274: Network Policy Server discarded the request for a user.
