Dear nanog, Is anyone experiencing similar problem that we are experiencing??? Configuration as follow. cisco 7500 Hardware is CT3IP CT3 H/W Version : 5.0.0, CT3 ROM Version: 1.2, CT3 F/W Version: 2.8.0 via T1 line provided by WC. Adtram TSU v.35 cisco2500. Adtram is configured to get network clock and all recommended configuration given by Atram techs. but it does not hurt go over once again. It appeared that sort of incompatiblities btwn cisco 2500 and TSU? ie when T1 goes down, CS light is off. and need to reboot to get Adtram to get T1 back. Yes, we have replaced TSU and cable. We even switched to different serial interface.

Re: IS-IS reference

This is a very dangerous advice. OSPF definitely has a lot more interesting failure modes than static routing. In other words, you advise students to economise on simple things (configuring networks) to get hit with complicated problems (fixing the broken networks) later on. Also, static routes do not generate any flap. A malfunctioning OSPF speaker can bring down the entire network. The real answer - do static routing whereever you have only a single path for packets to go thru. To eliminate mistakes, generate configuration automatically from master maps kept at network engineering computers. --vadim KISS - keep things as simple as possible... OSPF is an open protocol, and it's very simple in case if you have not 500 routers and 1000 flapping routes in the network - what do you searching the headache for? Multicast routing depends more from the options you have from the hardware vendor - choose the simplest and more standard method and turn it on... PS. From my lectures to the students, quote: --- The most complex routing method is STATIC - it's easy to implement (for the HW vendor) but most difficult to configure. The simplest routing is just dynamic routing in the plain schema (for example, 'router ospf 1/network 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 - just 2 lines for the CISCO, compare to the static' - may be it can argue someone do not use the static at all -:)

If all temperatures are consistently high, there's a real environmental problem. Otherwise it could be a broken sensor (i've seen that happening with cisco gear several times), or a stuck fan in the box. In any case you'd better go there and check what's going on. --vadim

RE: NetSol changing database (again)

I talked to a rep about this just now; he said that the "soft launch" of their new credit-card prepayment requirement for domain registration (http://www.networksolutions.com/business_account/business_info.html) is tomorrow. He wasn't willing or able to say what that meant in terms of database changes.

He didn't know what the changes would be, but he said that the customer service reps were warned to be ready for an onslaught of calls next week. btw, he said their internal name for the company is "Nothingworks Solutions".
