Dear all

Hi

Is there any way to change AS Path "no prepend".
I am in a situation needs some Prifixes to look like it comes from my

POE bump-in-the-wire conversion

2010-12-31 Thread Robert E. Seastrom

Perhaps someone from this august list can offer a clue here.

Have:  Cisco 3524-PWR  (paleo-POE, pre-802.3af Cisco standard).

It runs the 7960Gs great.

Have:  Wireless AP stuff that wants 12v on the unused pairs for
passive POE.  48v will let the magic smoke out.

Might buy:  phone that does 802.3af

Want to run these with the 3524-PWR.

I can't imagine that nobody makes a bump-in-the-wire converter for
this application, but haven't been able to find anything other than
802.3af to the passive POE use case.

Anyone got a pointer for me?

Thanks,

   Well, you could always aggregate them (even same prefix) in your own
   ASN and that would generate a fresh version of the route...

The Ubuquti Instant 802.3af seems to do what you want (as long as the
equipment can handle 16v)

Re: POE bump-in-the-wire conversion

2010-12-31 Thread Thomas Donnelly
We have some Aastra 9480i phones that are 802.3 af running off of a cisco  
3550 that are Pre-Standard power.


http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps646/prod_qas09186a00800913d3.html
"Q. Does the Cisco Catalyst 3550-24 PWR Switch support the 802.3af inline  
power standard?
A. No, this switch supports Cisco Pre-Standard Power over Ethernet. The  
Catalyst 3750 Series and Catalyst 3560 Series support the Cisco  
Pre-Standard Power over Ethernet and IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet."



I used the command

 power inline delay shutdown 20 initial 100

on the ports connected to the phones and it seems to be working just fine.

It may just be a lucky break for us but something worth trying?

I was aware of this device (being a big Ubiquiti fan), but have yet to
find anyone who has direct experience with using them on a 3524-PWR.

Have you actually tried this (on a 3524-PWR, not a 3550 or anything
later-but-pre-standard)?  The equipment will be quite happy with
16v...

Hi all

Thanks Scott, aggregate with suppress-map. I managed to solve my  
problem.


Infact, I have customers get to my POPs via MPLS VPN L3, through other  
ISP, this why I have got to remove this ISP ASN from my customers AS  
path.

I've actually used them in other applications.  They're a standard
802.3af device, and they just step-down to 16V @ 0.8A (max) though
they seemed to get a bit warm at 0.8A but worked fine, haven't had one
die yet.  To the switch they are a 100% 802.3af device so may not work
with the 3524-PWR.  I've not tried any 802.3af devices with the
3524-PWR, I have gone the other way (802.3af injector/switch with
pre-standard devices that accepted 48V) -- You might be better off
upgrading to an 802.3af switch or using a seperate 802.3af power
injector device/devices, enterasys for example makes a 20 port
injector (last I checked) among others.  Most almost all 802.3af units
will also do a Cisco compatible 'pre standard' mode for the older 7900
series phones that aren't 802.3af.  Pre standard cisco POE is limited
to about 10W, as IIRC, it uses only one pair (pins 1,2) for DC power,
the device has a low pass filter to get rid of the DC component for
the ethernet receiver hardware.  802.3af doesn't define which
wires/pins to use but generally will use the unused pairs, 4,5 and 7,8
for DC+ and DC-, unless it's gig-e, then it uses 1,2 and 3,6 (again
this is just my experience with some Netgear and HP gear and doesn't
necessarily represent anything else).

The use of pins 1,2 for power is possibly also why you don't see
pre-standard to 802.3af because there's far less available power, AND,
you'd have to build a low pass filter and possibly regenerate the
Ethernet signal to make it work too.  Combine that with cheap 802.3af
injectors (either rack/multiport units, or single units) there's not a
lot of incentive for hardware manufacturers to build such devices
either.
