Hi all
I have installed a new Cisco 871 as we have changed ISP's and have
gone from ADSL to Fibre, the original router was an ADSL Cisco 877 and
the new router is a Cisco 871
Since installing the new router a couple of days ago I have had some
strange problems
For example I was able to VPN into my network but could not access
webmail. Internet going out was affected and if I logged into the
router and tried to do a show log it would just hang, in otherwords it
just wouldn't display the log. Also I have IPSEC setup between my home
network and the office network. I was able to ping hosts and I was
able to telnet to the office switches etc, but performance was pretty
slow and I could not remote desktop to any hosts.
I am unsure if it's any sort of DoS or an actual hardware fault or
something else all together. A reload has always fixed it, till it
happens again anyway. This has happened 3 times in the last 1 1/2 days
I do have a Cisco 2801 I am going to put in it's place to help
eliminate the router as the problem but I was hoping someone might be
able to offer some suggestions as to whether or not these problems
seem either hardware or software related.
Attached is the show ver and a copy of the config (note that any
static IP's pertaining to the network have been x'd out). Lastly the
router connects to a Cisco PIX 515E V6.3
I suppose it could be firewall related but then why would a reload of
the router fix the issues?
Cheers
Scott

I was trying to work out your topology. I think what you are saying is
that you have:
remote PIX-------871 router-----Internet-------Head Office-----LAN
You say you cannot access Webmail. Is this via the VPN on your remote
PIX, if so what do your crypto ACL's say. Have you a split tunnel policy
in your VPN setup that maybe excludes access to the Webmail box. What is
the topology at the Head Office end. How does the Webmail route back to
your home network ? Could you access any other servers / devices other
than your switches.
When you say you were logging into your router and the show log just
hung the device. Where were you logging in from, your Head Office, your
local LAN etc.
Slow VPN performance can be as a result of fragmentation issues amongst
other things but I note that you override the DF bit for packets on your
router. However, as I am not sure how your topology hangs together it is
hard to determine what effect this is having and why you added the command..
May be an idea to do a quick topology map and add a little more detail.

Thanks Darren
Basically it is Office LAN -- PIX (Internal) -- Cisco 871 VLAN1 /28 --
Cisco 871 FastEthernet4 /30 -- Internet
From my home laptop I can telnet to the router over the internet to
the public IP set on the inside IP of the ethernet i/f (VLAN1) of the
router
Webmail is straight over the internet no VPN or anything like that
using https
As only some services are affected it does seem strange that the PIX
maybe the issue as I had no problems whatsoever over the old
connection. I have simply changed the outside IP on the PIX and
recofigured the outside addresses. The ethernet i/f connection to the
ISP equipment has been hard set at 10Mb/s Hal Duplex, this is correct,
it was set to auto and this is what was been reported on the i/f using
a sh int fa4 before I hard set it, I remember the ISP saying to hard
set it if there were problems
The other router (877) is using the exact same IOS as the 871 so I
would be suprised if the version of IOS was an issue
A year old in Cisco terms is not that old!
When I asy hung on the sh log, I would type the command and nothing
would happen it would just sit there, I would disconnect and reconnect
to the router no worries at all so it didn't lock the router up per
say
Also if it is PIX related why would a reboot of the router fix the
problem?
Cheers,
Scott
