Cable modem link slowness w ISA570 and CLI "show tech" equivalent

Hi, I'm helping out a non profit that has a Mediacom 100mbs link, they get 90+ Speed connected directly to the cable modem, but anywhere past the ISA570 they only get 50-60mbs. They have switched cables, added a separate port, tried different PCs, results are the same, 50-60 mbs max.
Also it's their understanding the ISA570 can't do CLI, so how can they get the equivalent of a 'show tech' command to a file to send offsite for troubleshooting,
Thanks.
Jim

Hello,
There is something similar to show tech on the ISA.
Log into the web GUI, go to Device Management >> Cisco Services & Support >> Send Diagnostics. At the bottom of that page is a Download button that will collect the config file, the logs, and some debug outputs into a zip file. You can use this to troubleshoot the device, although I usually prefer to be on the live device itself to look at things.
Before you dig too deep into those however, what kind of security services do you currently have enabled on the ISA? I was looking over the datasheet and while the SPI is capable of ~500mbps, when you start to enable the various security services those speeds start to drop.
If we look at the UTM (Unified Threat Management) throughput measures, that is at about 75mbps, which is fairly close to what you are getting. I would go through and disable the various security services one at a time and test your speed. My guess would be either A/V or IPS is slowing your connection down. It may be one or a combination of these services causing the slowdown. You can disable those options, or just explain that the extra security will cost a bit of speed.
Hope that helps a bit,

Using ACS to deny show tech-support

I am trying to deny the show tech-support command using Cisco Secure ACS command authorization sets (picture included). All other deny commands are working (is show running-config) but no matter what I do the show tech is un-successful. Any ideas?

Do you have these authorization commands configured?

Show tech and cpu load

Hello
we have 2 6500 in VSS , with image 15.1(1)SY1.
I had to do show tech as there was some issue in our network , when i gave this command immidiately show process cpu output showed usage as 100% and resource was SSH Process and show tech output never got complete session got hanged and I had to open new VTY session
I want to know does this happen eveytime when we give show tech or there is a issue with our device .

Amit
It is not necessarily an issue with your switches. When you are logged in via the vty lines and you issue a command like "sh tech" there is a large amount of data to be displayed and it is normal for the CPU to spike when it does this -
Q. How can we reduce the process for SSH on 6500?
A. If it is virtual exec, that is used for servicing vty lines, Vty lines are used for logging into the switch. If we are trying to dump a huge output like "show tech", it is expected to see high CPU and is not a matter for concern.
full link -
https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-22037
so what you are seeing is normal. But what is not normal is the display getting hung and having to open a new session.
So if it happens all the time it would be a problem but it could just be that at that particular time the switch was busy doing other things that also placed a load on the CPU.

Nexus 7000 show tech-support

Is there a way to do a show tech-support and pipe it to a file or tftp so that I can send it to a vendor? If so, what would the command be?
Thanks.
Jeff

You can use the redirect feature
show tech-support > bootflash:tsupport_file

Tech Tip of the Week: Syncing Distribution Groups in Office 365

Having trouble getting your distribution groups to sync when migrating to Office 365?
We recently worked with a customer who had over 300 distribution groups that were not syncing to Office 365. Upon review, we noticed that the distribution groups did not have a Display Name.
Here are the steps we took in order to resolve the problem:
1. Open ADUC “Active Directory Users and Computers “On the top menu click on view and select Advanced Features.
2. Find the Distribution List that is not syncing to your Office 365 tenant > right click the Distribution List > select Properties > click on the attribute editor tab.
3. There are a couple attributes that must be filled out in order for it to Synchronize to Office 365.
Attributes: mail,
displayName – if they do not have any data, fill it in. Once completed click ok.
4. Open the MIISClient. This is located on your DIRSYNC Server. The default path is: “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Online Directory Sync\SYNCBUS\Synchronization Service\UIShell\miisclient.exe”
5. Click on Metaverse Search > input the following:
Attribute: Mail
Operator: Contains
Value:
“Email Address of the DG”
6. Once filled in click on search > double click the search results > click on the connectors tab. Note: If
you only see SourceAD Management Agent, perform the following:
7. Click on Management Agents > Right click SourceAD > click on Run > click on Full Import Stage Only > click on ok.
8. Right click SourceAD > click on run > click on Full Sync > click on ok.
9. Right click TargetWebService > click on Run > click on Full Confirming Import Stage > click on ok.
10. Right click TargetWebService > click on Run > click on Full Confirming Sync > click on ok.
11. Right click TargetWebService > click on Run > click on Export > click on ok.
We hope you found this week’s Tech Tip useful! Do you have a problem you want us to solve in our Tech Tip of the week series? Let us know!
