______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: (ASCEND) DHCP Spoofing/P75 Address Robbing Author: MMedwid@symantec.com (Michael Medwid) at Internet Date: 11/4/97 5:33 PM I sent the following message to one of our VIPs in response to a problem he was having bringing his laptop computer home from the office. He has a routing/NAT using/DHCP spoofing P75 at home. I wondered if anyone else had ever seen this issue... --- Bob, I was able to replicate your IP conflict message when taking a laptop that had been issued an IP address by the LAN based DHCP server and putting that on the home network with a Pipeline 75. The error message on my laptop is "The system has detected a conflict for 155.64.36.239 with 00:C0:7B:71:6E:1A". It turns out that 00:C0:7B:71:6E:1A is the mac address of the pipeline. I ran show arp on the Pipeline and sure enough - the only entry was 155.64.36.236 associated with 00:C0:7B:71:6E:1A on ie0. The Pipeline had appropriated the IP address associated the laptop's nic (!). After running winipcfg and releasing the address and rebooting the laptop, everything came up ok (of course we already knew it would). Unfortunately just clicking "renew" would not work because by that point Win95 had shut down IP on the ethernet interface. It looks like a bug with DHCP spoofing on the Pipeline. I upgraded the code on a Pipeline to the latest version to see if perhaps the issue had been addressed in the intervening months since we first rolled out the routed Pipelines. But it was to no avail. The best advice I can give at this point is to release the IP address using winipcfg right before shutting down for the day. That should allow you to get up on the first try when you put the laptop on the home network. Meanwhile I have alerted Ascend of the bug and I'm reiterating the point in this message. ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq">http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq</A>></PRE> <PRE> Received: from Mailer.symantec.com (198.6.49.5) by smtp-ima.symantec.com with SMTP (IMA Internet Exchange 2.11 Enterprise) id 00017B8D; Tue, 4 Nov 97 19:08:43 -0800 Received: from max.bungi.com (max.bungi.com [207.126.97.7]) by Mailer.symantec.com (8.8.4/8.7.6) with ESMTP id TAA28703 for <MMedwid@symantec.com>; Tue, 4 Nov 1997 19:10:30 -0800 (PST) Received: (from majordom@localhost) by max.bungi.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) id RAA00703 for ascend-users-outgoing; Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:37:14 -0800 (PST) X-Authentication-Warning: max.bungi.com: majordom set sender to owner-ascend-users using -f Received: from daver.bungi.com (daver.bungi.com [207.126.97.2]) by max.bungi.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id RAA00698 for <ascend-users@max.bungi.com>; Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:37:10 -0800 (PST) Received: from lserver.symantec.com(really [198.6.49.6]) by daver.bungi.com via sendmail with esmtp id <m0xSuP6-000074C@daver.bungi.com> for <ascend-users@bungi.com>; Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:37:08 -0800 (PST) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #8 built 1997-Jun-19) Received: from smtp-ima.symantec.com (host13-sub76.symantec.com [155.64.76.13]) by lserver.symantec.com (8.8.4/8.7.6) with SMTP id RAA10239 for <ascend-users@bungi.com>; Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:45:30 -0800 (PST) Received: from ccMail by smtp-ima.symantec.com (IMA Internet Exchange 2.11 Enterprise) id 0001787D; Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:38:46 -0800 Mime-Version: 1.0 Date: Tue, 4 Nov 1997 17:33:48 -0800 Message-ID: <0001787D.3152@symantec.com> From: MMedwid@symantec.com (Michael Medwid) Subject: (ASCEND) DHCP Spoofing/P75 Address Robbing To: ascend-users@bungi.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: cc:Mail note part Sender: owner-ascend-users@max.bungi.com Precedence: bulk </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <HR> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg10421.html">Re: (ASCEND) re: Ascend's Comedy Voice-Mail</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg10419.html">(ASCEND) Firmware for MAX 1800</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg10415.html">(ASCEND) DHCP Spoofing/P75 Address Robbing</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg10429.html">RE: (ASCEND) DHCP Spoofing/P75 Address Robbing</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="maillist.html#10420"><STRONG>Main</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thrd229.html#10420"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> </BODY> </HTML>
