I didn't specifically change any of the CEF configuration for the DS3 interface. As soon as I enabled ip cef distributed, the DS3 interfaces started working immediately. What hardware do you have at the end of the circuit opposite the 6509 ? --Danny -----Original Message----- From: Alison Gudgeon [mailto:agudgeon@firstnet.co.uk] Sent: Tuesday, January 30, 2001 10:36 AM To: 'Danny Snyder'; nanog@merit.edu Subject: RE: More 6509 problems... Hi Hybrid IOS I've got IP CEF DISTRIBUTED set globally. Did you have it enabled or disabled on the T3 interface?

Alison, I've had VERY similar problems with a 6509 (Sup 1a + MSFC2) with a FlexWAN and a PA-2T3+. After spending the better part of two weeks on the phone with Cisco, we finally determined that ip cef distributed needed to be turned on in global configuration. Also, are you running native IOS or Catalyst OS on the Supervisor and IOS on the MSFC ?

Hi, Is anyone doing the following: 6509 (supervisor 1a + msfc) - with a flexWAN adapter to take a Packet Over Sonet OC-3 card. I'm having great problems getting up/up on the interface, the current situation is up/down, a hardware loop at the telco kit brings the line up/up but otherwise just up/down. Config is default I've just put IP's on. I'm running very new code - 12.1(4)E1 many thanks in advance for any help. Kind Regards Alison
