    Configuring L2TP Services The following sections are amendments to Configuring L2TP Services. Overview of the Name Server Addresses Feature Bay Networks Server Addresses,” for Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) connections. This name server address (NSA) feature enables a remote host dialing in to a Bay Networks router acting as an L2TP network server (LNS) to obtain NSAs from either the LNS or a RADIUS server.

  • Page 19: Figure 1. Specifying Server-Assigned Nsas In The Dial-Up Networking Tcp/Ip Settings Window

    Figure 1. When users specify that they want to use server-assigned NSAs, they should not enter primary and secondary domain name server (DNS) and WINS name server addresses (also called NetBIOS name server addresses or NBNS addresses). Instead, when a user dials in, the LNS or RADIUS server automatically assigns name server addresses for the connection.

  • Page 20: Specifying The Origin Of The Name Server Address

    Specifying the Origin of the Name Server Address When you configure the NSA feature on the router, you must use Site Manager to set the Name Server Address Origin parameter to one of three values: Disable, Local, or RADIUS. The following sections describe each of these options. Disable If you leave the Name Server Address Origin parameter at its default of Disable, the NSA feature is disabled for the LNS configured on this router slot.
  • Page 21 • The RADIUS server must have entries in its database corresponding to incoming host user names. • The RADIUS server must support vendor specific attributes (VSA) and must have the following entries in its dictionary: ATTRIBUTE Annex-Primary-DNS-Server ATTRIBUTE Annex-Secondary-DNS-Server ATTRIBUTE Annex-Primary-NBNS-Server ATTRIBUTE Annex-Secondary-NBNS-Server Examples Name Server Address Origin Parameter Set to Local...

    Syslog configuration parameters Overview of the Syslog Service You can use the BayRS Syslog messaging service to capture and process router event messages on any UNIX-based network management platform. The Syslog component of the router software supports this functionality by communicating with a counterpart software component named syslogd on your management workstation.

  • Page 74 Remote Hosts and Filters Through the Syslog service, you use a management workstation (typically, a remote UNIX host) to monitor event messages generated by the software entities on each router in your network. You configure entity filters on each router to capture and forward to that host only messages that you specify.

  • Page 75: Figure 8. Router Event Message Filtering For One Host

    Each event message contains the name of the entity that originated (logged) that message. For a complete list of BayRS entity names and their corresponding internal entity numbers, refer to the BayRS documentation CD, or access the event message database at: http://support.baynetworks.com/library/tpubs/events...

    Facility Codes The facility code identifies a standard UNIX system facility that receives a message from an internal or external software entity. The “Local <0-7>” UNIX system facilities receive event messages (in Syslog format) from routers in the network. The following table relates UNIX system facility names to their respective facility codes on a workstation.
  • Page 81 UNIX System Error Codes You determine how the severity levels of Bay Networks router event messages map to error levels on your UNIX workstation, based on the requirements of the network management application you use. For instructions on how to map router event messages to UNIX system error level codes, see “Mapping Router Message Severity Levels to UNIX System Error Levels”...
  • Page 82 Configuring syslog.conf UNIX workstations have a syslog.conf file in which you define destinations for event messages received by the local syslogd software module. For syslogd to properly dispatch router event messages to a file, display, printer, or another remote host, you must edit the contents of the /etc/syslog.conf file.
  • Page 83 Example: Messages dispatched to console display: local7.debug [TAB] local7.info [TAB] local7.notice [TAB] local7.err [TAB] local7.crit [TAB] local7.alert [TAB] local7.emerg [TAB] local7.debug;local7.info;local;local7.notice; local7.err;local7.crit;local7.alert;local7.emerg Messages dispatched to a file: local7.info [TAB] local7.debug [TAB] local7.warning [TAB] Messages dispatched to a host: local7.notice [TAB] Messages dispatched to a printer: local7.trace [TAB] The example shows that you press the [Tab] key to access the path designation for...

    Starting Syslog on the Router The following steps describe how to configure Syslog on a router: Using the console attached to the router, or using a telnet connection to the router, log on to the Technician Interface. Start the BCC and enter configuration mode. Configure the Syslog global entity.

  • Page 86 Identifying a UNIX Host to Receive Router Syslog Messages You must define which remote hosts you want to receive Syslog (event) messages from the router. To define a host, navigate to the log-host address <IP_address> IP_address For example, to point the Syslog service to the remote host at IP address 192.168.3.4, enter: syslog box#...
  • Page 87 You can configure up to 10 filters per remote host, without changing configuration context. For each new filter, reenter the legal value for the required entity parameter. To see a list of entity names you can use, enter the following command: log-host/192.168.3.7# Legal values: atm_dxi...
  • Page 88 To define by message number the events you want Syslog to capture and forward to a remote host, configure values for the event-lower-bound and event-upper-bound parameters. Navigate to the appropriate entity filter and enter: event-lower-bound <event_number> event-upper-bound <event_number> event_number range of events you want Syslog to capture. Example: syslog box#...
  • Page 89 Example: filter/192.168.3.4/telnet-sessions# Note: To specify multiple severity levels (other than “all”) concurrently, you must enclose these values within braces {...} on the command line, and you must insert a space after each value except the last one preceding the closing brace.
  • Page 90 Saving a Syslog Configuration You can save your configuration as a bootable (binary) file on an NVFS volume by entering: save config <vol> : <filename> You can also save the configuration as an ASCII text file, which you can import into the active router configuration.
  • Page 91 Stopping or Restarting Syslog Messaging to All Hosts You can stop Syslog messaging to all remote hosts by disabling Syslog services. Navigate to the disable Example: syslog box# disable syslog# To confirm the change, check the current value of the state parameter by entering: state syslog# state disabled...
  • Page 92 To restart Syslog messaging, navigate to the appropriate enter: enable Example: syslog box# log-host 192.168.3.4 syslog# log-host/192.168.3.4# To confirm the change, check the current value of the state parameter by entering: log-host/192.168.3.4# state enabled Disabling or Reenabling a Filter You can stop an entity filter from capturing event messages for its associated remote host.

Enabling Sequential Syslog Messaging Message time-sequencing allows Syslog to capture and forward router event messages in chronological order. Disabling this feature causes Syslog messages to be forwarded according to the polled sequence of slots.

Parameters of log-host (box or stack > syslog > log-host) Parameter Function address REQUIRED -- Specifies the IP address of this remote host. time-sequence Enables or disables time-sequencing and forwarding of Syslog messages. Enabling this feature allows Syslog messages from different slots (router-wide) to be interleaved and forwarded sequentially.
  • Page 102 Table 4. Parameters of filter (box or stack > syslog > log-host > filter) Parameter Function severity-mask Specifies the severity levels of router event messages -- warning, information, trace, fault, and debug -- that Syslog will capture and forward to this filter's host. Syslog uses this severity mask only if you specify the wildcard event number range (0 to 255) as values for the event-lower-bound and event-upper-bound parameters.
