Protocols / Routing :: Measure Network Occupation Per VLANs
Jan 7, 2013The question is apparently simple. A network is given, consisting of
- 1 network core switch: HP 5500-EI (Layer3)
- 4 access switches: HP 5120-EI (Layer2)
They are connected in the shape of a star (the core switch in the center)The task is to measure the occupation rate of this network on a per-VLAN basis.
For example : To be able to generate statistics like: During the last week - Monday to Sunday - the netowork occupation with VLAN 10 traffic was 30% and VLAN 60 traffic was 70%.
Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750G / How To Measure Respond Time
Jan 29, 2012How 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.

May 2, 2011Soon my town will be getting fiber to the home, so I've already upgraded my home network to handle this. One of the changes is that I'll no longer use my powerline adapters to stream video, but to transfer the IPTV data. For streaming I wanted to switch to Wifi, so I bought the E4200 and compatible adapters and bridges (see subject).The powerline adapters have a bandwidth of 200Mbps, of which I get an actual 120. This works fine except for full 1080p, that stutters. The E4200 has a maximum of 450Mbps, but the adapters and bridge only do 300, but that should be sufficient. So after replugging my network, I tested it last night by playing a 350MB 45 minute episode of a TV series... And it stuttered!
Doing the math, that would mean the connection was less that 1Mbps! The WUSB600N and E3200 were (direct line) about 4 meters apart, separated by a concrete floor. What is the best way to measure the actual connection speed?And more important; since the E3200 does both 2.4GHz and 5GHz, how can I tell which band the adapter is using? I want to use the 5Ghz band, since that is fairly empty compared to the 2.4Ghz. However, I've configured both with the same ID, as the E4200 manual instructs, but I think it may be better to separate them?

Apr 25, 2012We have a scheduled office move where we are consolidating 2 remote offices into one. I’ve been asked to spec out the correct size UPS to support all of the network equipment for this new office.I went to the Cisco website and I see on the datasheet for the switches and router where they talk about the wattages and BTU’s but how can I go about deciphering from that information what my total wattage and BTU will be for each switch and router?What numbers should I be looking at? For instance, we have 3 3750 48 port PoE switches. So if I look at the datasheet for that switch they have 4 different columns, one for 100% throughput power consumption, one for 5% throughput, another one for 100% throughput for max PoE load and one for 5% throughput with 50% PoE loads?Is there a common method for deremining UPS requipments? For the switches I pretty sure I need to assume max PoE load in the event every port has a phone plugged into each port.

Cisco VPN :: AES256 VPN Encryption Method
Dec 21, 2012I've some VPN encryption method questions.Is it recommended to use different encryption algorithms for both VPN phases (phase 1 and phase 2)?I’ve read once that it is much secure to use different encryption algorithms for each phase.In my opinion, I would go for the AES256 algorithm in both phases. But maybe it is a better idea to use AES128 or AES192 in the first phase and AES-256 in the second phase… I don't know.After saying this, I’m also wondering about the best VPN encryption setup for a site-to-site VPN (IKEv2) when using a Cisco ASA like the 5510, 5520 or the 5515.Which encryption method is recommended for phase 1 and phase 2Which PFS / DH-group should be used (considering CPU load and security)
View 2 Replies View RelatedCisco WAN :: BGP Filtering Best Method For 2921
Nov 3, 2012I have recently upgraded my company's network significantly, and in the process removed our Cisco edge routers and firewalls (gasp!), and replaced them with another vendor who gave a better price point for the router.However, i was only able to get ONE edge router, whereas before I had two, so I want to recycle one of my old 2921's as a cold standby (in case the brown sticky stuff hits the rotating air distribution blades, and $other-vendor router dies).Trouble is, the 2921 does not, I believe, have sufficient system resources to take the full routing table we're getting from our two ISP's.What I would like to ask is people's thoughts on the best method for me to configure the BGP setup on the 2921 to do the following:
-Accept the default route from each ISP and discard *everything* else in the route table
-Modify our advertisement (ad prepend) out the "secondary" ISP to reduce the priority of traffic coming in over this link.
-Configure the OUTBOUND priorities so that the "primary" link is used by preference for outgoing traffic (which will effectively shut down the secondary link for outbound traffic

Cisco LAN :: 6500 / 3550 - Method For Detecting Loops
Sep 23, 2012I am a network tech at a local school district (easily enterprise network). I am just a worker bee, so have no say in the design of the networks. Our topo at a site goes WAN rtr---LAN rtr (6500 of 3550)----distro switches----access switches.
Now at most of our sites we use Extreme, which has a handy feature called ELRP Extreme Loop Recovery Protocol, despite the name, this mechanism just detects loops, in the logs we can see, ok...off the LAN rtr, port 2, then on port 2 we see whats hanging off it...ok, loop off port 5 of that switch.....and work your way down the room.
We do not have STP on our network (dont ask) and yes, logging is not set to standards also......what is the best way to detect loops? Commonly these loops come from classrooms that have mini-sw's that are looped onto themselves or a wall jack connected to mini sw and that mini sw then connected to another wall drop going back to same sw. Sometimes I disable all ports minus the WAN uplink on the LAN router, then enabled ports one by one while having a LR hooked up to a user facing rj45 port on the 6500 and when the LR (link runner) shows 100% util, I know that port is now suspect.
Cisco :: Enable Password Fails In AAA Authentication Method List?

Cisco VPN :: 5520 AnyConnect Authentication With RADIUS Secure Method
Nov 6, 2012I have been successfully able to setup Cisco AnyConnect VPN on ASA 5520 with 8.4 code. I have set it to authenticate against the RADIUS Server (Microsoft Windows 2008 NPS server). I have noticed one thing, on the server under "Constraints and Authentication Method". I picked MS-CHAP-v2, but it is considered Less secure authentication methods. I can click on Add and choose other Authentication methods like Smart Card or other Certificate, PEAP, EAP-MSCHAP v2. I picked PEAP but then the VPN does not work.
So first of all does it really matter if I just leave it to MS-CHAP-v2? Because from my understanding is that AnyConnect will authenticate to ASA and then ASA in the backend talks to the RADIUS server so from a security stand point this scenario shouldn't it be sufficient as no un encrypted or less secure information is available to the outside world? Secondly is there any documentation on using PEAP with Cisco AnyConnect?

View 2 Replies View RelatedCisco :: 5508 / Easiest Method To Block Employees From Guest Network?
Jun 3, 2013We have WCS and several WLCs (WISMv1, 5508, 4402) all running the 7.0.240.0 code. The "Guest" SSID is "garden-walled" from the corp LANs. We used to have web-auth page that required ID / PW. This became unreasonable as IT Dept was getting requests at all hours for immediate access from guest / resident family memebrs. So we changed the web-auth to remove the the ID / PW and just display corp policy and have to hit a "continue" button to gain access to Guest SSID. Healthcare staff on the floor are not tech-savvy enough to want to use or perform Hotel Ambassador functions.The issue now is that we have employees with smartphones, tablets and even personal laptops conecting the Guest SSID. Sr. Mgt wants to find a way to stop the abuse.I do not believe there is any perfect solution to prevent employees from gaining access, but have been asked to find a manageable method to deter most employees from connecting to the Guest network. Looked at seing up MAC filtering in WCS, it seems that you have to enter MACs that you *allow* on to the network - by default, other MACs are blocked. I would rather have the template block the MACs listed in the csv file and allow access as the default.. We have several SSIDs. Our corporate SSID uses 802.1x and we use Microsoft Server 2012 Network Policy Server (RADIUS) to pass user ID / PW to our AD for authentication. We do not have Cisco ACS. I am not sure if integrating RADIUS is the answer here either. I have had some webex sessions on ISE, NCS, and Prime infrastructure. We are only interested at the moment to monitor / control access to Guest. I have been told that ISE will have "sponsorship" functionality added in soon -- where user fills out info and ID / PW is sent via text or email to a cell phone or other device.

Cisco Wireless :: WS-C3560-24PS - Plug N Play Installation Method For HREAP
Aug 8, 2012I'm configuring AP in Hreap mode. Objective for me is th have a "plug & play" installation method for HREAP. I configure on HREAP AP, Native VLAN set to 1 and the WLAN and Vlan mapping for the current wlan is set to 1 too. WLC version is 7.0.230.0 and AP version is 12.4(23c)JA4
on my cisco switch (WS-C3560-24PS with 12.2(55)SE1), the port configuration is as below:
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 45
switchport trunk allowed vlan 45,74
switchport mode trunk
no logging event link-status
no logging event power-inline-status
no snmp trap link-status
spanning-tree portfast trunk
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
AP receives a DHCP IP in Vlan 45 and users connected in vlan 45 too. I would like to undestand why the AP is working properly because normally vlan 1 is not configured as allowed vlan on my switch and the native vlan is dedicated only to untagged ethernet packet.
Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3560 / 2960 - Potential Spanning Tree Method
Oct 16, 2011 I have a Cisco 3560 running as a Level3 device in my network running 10 V LANs and routing between most of them (nothing complex with ACLs) and running spanning-tree mode pvst. The main network is run on a net gear GS748TPS stack of three switches running MSTP.
I have just bought an additional 3560 and a 2960 to plug in. I have set them up with IP addresses and then plugged them into the net gear. This brought the whole network down until I unplugged the new switches.
I have confirmed the IP addresses aren't duplicated and that DHCP is not running on the switches so I can only assume it's something to do with DHCP. I cannot afford for the network to go offline again, so is there anything I should check? Am I running incompatible spanning tree methods between the net gear and Cisco devices?
Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3750 Method Of Forcing Non Connected Switch Port LED To Blink
Jan 9, 2012Any method of forcing a non connected switch port LED to blink for a certain number of times regardless if there is anything connected.The purpose of this is we have remote 3750 switch stacks and quite often have to tell non technical staff to patch to a certain port. It would be much easier if we could say "Connect it to the empty port which just started blinking orange" as the port numbers are difficult for them to see in these locations.A similar feature is available in the ethtool package for linux which makes it really easy for identifying ports on servers. It would be great if a similar feature is available on Cisco switches.
