Example IP/IPX routing from OfficeConnect Remote 5xx series to a Cisco 2500.

PURPOSE OF PROCEDURE:

To Specify an example network set-up to test Point to Point Protocol (PPP) and Multilink PPP (MP) interoperability between the 3Com OfficeConnect Remote 5xx series bridge/routers and a Cisco 2500 to enable routing of IP and IPX over ISDN.

The procedure assumes OfficeConnect Remote experience.

This setup procedure explains simple configuration of IP and IPX routing from an OfficeConnect Remote 5xx series with version 05.03 code to a Cisco 2500 with version 11.0 code. Version 5.02 code for the OfficeConnect Remote 5xx series will only allow PPP. Other Cisco software versions may work, but they are not guaranteed.

Section 1 IP ROUTING

Section 2 Enable PAP Authorization

Section 3 Enable Multilink PPP

Section 4 IPX ROUTING

Appendix 1 Valid Switch types


SECTION 1: IP ROUTING

The first configuration is PPP only. PAP and CHAP is not used in this set-up as CLI is assumed. If you do not have CLI then section 2 shows how to enable PAP.

We will be routing IP from a remote network OfficeConnect Remote to a central site Cisco 2500 using static routes and a numbered link.

The addressing is as follows:

Cisco Unit Name = CENTRAL

OfficeConnect Remote Unit Name = REMOTE

The central site Network = 193.10.10.x 255.255.255.0 with Cisco router address 193.10.10.1

The remote site Network = 89.x.x.x 255.0.0.0 with OfficeConnect Remote router address 89.1.1.1

The numbered link = 130.10.2.x 255.255.255.0 Cisco ISDN WAN address = 130.10.2.1

OfficeConnect Remote ISDN WAN address = 130.10.2.2

Line type ETSI Net3

N.B. A List of Switch types supported by Cisco is shown in Appendix1.

Step 1: Set the Cisco to Factory Defaults

Type the following commands.

ENABLE <cr>

(Enter Password)

WR ERASE <cr>

Wait 30 seconds and reboot Cisco

Step 2: Initial Configuration of Cisco.

The Cisco will now prompt you with initial configuration questions:

Prompt Answer

ENABLE PASSWORD password

VIRTUAL TERMINAL PASSWORD cisco

SNMP NO

VINES NO

LAT NO

APPLE NO

DEC NO

IP YES

IGRP ROUTING NO

RIP ROUTING YES

CLNS NO

BRIDGE NO

IPX NO

XNS NO

APOLLO NO

BRI TYPE BASIC-NET3

CONFIGURE INTERFACE BRI0

IS THIS INTERFACE IN USE? YES

CONFIGURE IP ADDRESS? YES

CONFIGURATION IP ADDRESS 130.10.2.1

NUMBER OF BITS IN SUBNET 8

NB: Notice that the number of bit in subnet is 8 as this is a class B address subnetted to class C

CONFIGURE INTERFACE ETHERNET PORT 0

IS THIS INTERFACE IN USE? YES

CONFIGURE IP ADDRESS? YES

CONFIGURATION IP ADDRESS 193.10.10.1

NUMBER OF BIT IN SUBNET 0

CONFIGURATION SERIAL INTERFACE

SERIAL 0 NO

SERIAL 1 NO

USE THIS CONFIGURATION YES

At this point the Cisco 2500 will compile these entries.

Step 3: Enter user names.

The usernames will be the names given to the OfficeConnect Remote and the Cisco

EN <cr>

PASSWORD <cr>

CONFIG <cr>

TERM <cr>

username CENTRAL password PASSWORD <cr>

username REMOTE password PASSWORD <cr>

<Ctrl> Z

WR T <cr>

NB: The username passwords have been set to PASSWORD. When configuration is written to flash, PASSWORD will be encrypted. These passwords will be passive in the configuration until PAP or CHAP is enabled. see section 2

Step 4: Enter ISDN interface parameters for PPP, SPID,dialer map and dialer group.

CONFIG <cr>

TERM <cr>

INT BRI0 <cr>

ENCAPSULATION PPP <cr>

DIALER MAP IP 130.10.2.2 NAME REMOTE ISDN number <cr>

DIALER-GROUP 1 <cr>

ISDN SPID 1 spid number ISDN number <cr>

ISDN SPID 2 spid number ISDN number <cr>

N.B. The SPID settings are only necessary in certain USA applications

<Ctrl> Z

WR T <cr>

Step 5: Add static IP route, attach to Access List and dialer list

CONFIG <cr>

TERM <cr>

IP ROUTE 89.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 130.10.2.2 <cr>

ACCESS-LIST 101 PERMIT IP ANY ANY <cr>

DIALER-LIST 1 PROTOCOL IP LIST 101 <cr>

<Ctrl> Z

WR T <cr>

Step 6: Configuration of the OfficeConnect Remote

Set the OfficeConnect Remote to Factory Defaults with the following commands.

CO STD <cr>

Y <cr>

When unit has rebooted type SAVE <cr>

Enter the QC NA screen (Items shown in parentheses are example entries as defined in SECTION 1)

OfficeConnect Remote NAME (REMOTE)

OfficeConnect Remote LAN IP ADDRESS (89.1.1.1)

OfficeConnect Remote LAN MASK (255.0.0.0)

SWITCH TYPE and SPIDS (For USA use ONLY)

Use the QC IN screen to set up

Cisco NAME (CENTRAL)

Cisco ISDN NUMBER,

Cisco LAN NETWORK No. (193.10.10.1)

Cisco LAN MASK (255.255.255.0)

IP ADDRESS of Cisco ISDN WAN port (130.10.2.1)

MASK of Cisco ISDN WAN port (255.255.255.0)

IP ADDRESS of OfficeConnect Remote ISDN WAN port (130.10.2.2)

MASK of OfficeConnect Remote ISDN WAN port (255.255.255.0)

Set Remote unit type to Cisco.


SECTION 2: ENABLE PAP AUTHORIZATION

Step 1: Enable PAP on the Cisco Router.

Type the following

CONFIG <cr>

TERM <cr>

INT BRI0 <cr>

PPP AUTHENTICATION PAP <cr>

[Ctrl] Z

WR T

NB. Section 1 step 3 has already set the passwords as PASSWORD in readiness for PAP to be enabled.

Step 2: Enable PAP on the OfficeConnect Remote router:

Type the following:

CO AUTH <cr>

ADD <cr>

ADD PPP AUTH TABLE ENTRY

Interface : CENTRAL

Auth Class : PAP

Local ID : REMOTE

Local PW : PASSWORD

Remote ID : CENTRAL

Remote PW : PASSWORD

Enter the CO IS NU screen, EDIT the entry for CENTRAL and set PPP AUTHENTICATION to PAP.

Step 1: Enable MP on the cisco.

Type the following:

CONFIG <cr>

TERM <cr>

INT BRI0 <cr>

PPP MULTILINK <cr>

[Ctrl] Z

WR T

Step 2: Enable PPP on the OfficeConnect Remote.

Type the following:

Enter the CO IS NU screen, EDIT the entry for CENTRAL and set PPP MP to ENABLE.

CO PO <cr>

EDIT both ISDN ports, setting DEMAND to ENABLED and customizing thresholds.


SECTION 4: IPX ROUTING

This configuration is for a remote site workstation on the OfficeConnect Remote LAN to connect to a Novell server at the Central Cisco LAN. A Pseudo IPX address needs to be used for the OfficeConnect Remote LAN port a pseudo ISDN IPX network.

Step 1: Enable IPX routing on the Cisco 2500

Type the following:

CONFIG <cr>

TERM <cr>

IPX ROUTING

DIALER-LIST 1 PROTOCOL IPX PERMIT

INT E0

IPX NETWORK xxxxxxxx ENCAPSULATION SAP BROADCAST

INT BRI0

IPX NETWORK yyyyyyyy

DIALER MAP IPX yyyyyyyy.zzzz.zzzz.zzzz NAME REMOTE nnnnnnn

[Ctrl] Z

WR T

(xxxxxxxx = Local IPX network number)

(yyyyyyyy = ISDN IPX network number)

(zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz = MAC address of OfficeConnect Remote)

(nnnnnnn = ISDN number of OfficeConnect Remote)

NB. ENCAPSULATION SAP sets the Cisco LAN port to Novell 802.2

Step 2: Enable IPX routing on the OfficeConnect Remote:

Type the following:

CO PO <cr>

ED <cr>

Set local IPX network address and frame type.

CO IS NU <cr>

Edit the entry for CENTRAL and set the ISDN IPX network address.

CO BR PA <cr>

Enable Learn Novell RIP/SAP

CO RO PA

Enable IPX ROUTING

Bring up a manual call and wait for two minutes.

Drop manual call

CO BR PA

Disable Learn Novell RIP/SAP
