RE: (ASCEND) Max 1800 to WinNT routing

["Troy Settle" <troy@picus.com>]

Earl,

With most routers (cisco, ascend, 3com, etc..) and OSes (BSD, redhat,
debian, solaris, etc...), you can use the Radius profile you're familiar
with.

Unfortunately, with NT as a router, you have to take special steps to get
things to work.  NT can not route between 2 interfaces that are on the same
subnet (or the same class-c).  Here's a profile that will work with NT:

ntbox	Password="Isuck"
	Service-Type = Framed-User,
	Framed-Protocol = PPP,
	Framed-Routing = None,
	Framed-Address = 192.168.10.1,
	Framed-Route = "192.168.20.1/24 192.168.10.1 1",
	Ascend-Maximum-Channels = 2,
	etc....

This sucks in general, but sucks most specifically for those young ISPs with
only a single /24 to play with.  They end up having to use private addresses
for the Framed-Address.


G'luck,

-Troy

PS:  This might be a given, but I think it's worth mentioning that the NT
box really should have RRAS installed (as opposed to normal RAS).
