No entries in my Host Routing table

I got the phone from Cincinnati Bell in USA and registered the phone with Etisalat Nigeria, it worked for about 7 months and stopped working and when i checked the Host routing Table i found no entries. My PIN:29BA62F7 and my IMEI No:358807040132108. Please help.

On the handset, go to:
For OS5 and 4.x
Options - Advanced Options - Host Routing Table
and click Register now, and escape back to the home page.
For OS6 and higher
in options, device , advanced, host routing table, click on menu and choose register now.
Wait 2 minutes and see if registration to network happens.
Resend your service books from your carrier BIS site:

Phone unable to get Host Routing Tables

Hey,
I've been on with Rogers tech support for sometime today.
My originating issue was wireless wouldn't work and everytime i tried to scan for networks the bb would freeze and auto restart. I did a backup and wiped the device and wireless was working yet again.
But now i'm unable to get data services at all, apparently with rogers you're supposed to get EDGE and not edge. You're also supposed to have 8 entries in the Host Routing Table and i have none.
Rogers has wiped the handheld, reloaded all applications to barebones and still the issue persists.
Whenever i try to do a full restore it errors out at reloading WLAN Profiles and options.
Before all this started and it was wiped trying to view WIFI Options an error popped up "Uncaught Exception: padded byte out of range" now i remembered that from memory so the Uncaught part maybe wrong.
Really don't want to drop another $500 on a phone literally 2 years after i spent $400 for this thing.
Thanks
Ian

I should also add that i tried my dads sim card in my phone and same issue.

Host routing tables

Hi all. I have a blackberry curve 8310 with 4.5 operating system. I cannot access the at&t network. It searches for the network and then says no service. My sim card is fine (works in my other phone) and I have a data plan. I have service books but no host routing tables. When I try to register the hrt's is says message is queued and will be sent once data coverage is available. And again when I put my sim into another phone, everything is fine and I have a full signal. I called at&t technical support and I might as well have been speaking german. They had no suggestions whatsoever. Any way I can get the hrt's on my phone ? thanks

Hi and welcome to the forums!

HOST ROUTING TABLE IS EMPTY please HELP

HELLO THERE PLEASE HELP ME , MY HOST ROUTING TABLE IS EMPTY
WHAT DO I DO NOW?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
With a strong carrier network signal (not WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support...it is, after all, your carrier network that must populate these items to your BB.
Good luck!

Host Routing table empty, will not register with network and BIS

I wiped out my BlackBerry 9900 and thereafter, it gave me an error code 507. I reloaded the OS through suggested software from the Blackberry Desktop device software and it was sussuccful. But since then, I could not surf the internet with my phone despite having BIS suubscription with my network provider (Glo Nigeria). I checked the Host Routine table and found it empty. I registered it several times and even removed the battery and replaced it, I also did network diagnostics test and didnt get any form of change. I called my service provider and they checked and confirmed that my SIM and subscription status is ok, I inserted my SIM card into another BlackBerry device and it worked well. I have tried different suggestions on the forum but non of them solved the problem. Please kindly assist me.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've seen this happen when people upgrade to 7.1.
Go back to OS 7.0
1. First locate your carrier and the OS file you wish to use.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
2. It doesn't hurt to do a manual backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > Backup. Close Desktop Manager upon completion and unplug BlackBerry. You can get BlackBerry Desktop Software here http://us.blackberry.com/apps-software/desktop/
3. Download the OS file from step 1 to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.
4. Go to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file named "vendor.xml." Also check the following locations for vendor.xml files and delete any instances of the file:
On Windows Vista/7 navigate to C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML (Where "YOUR_USER" is your username)
On Windows XP navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USER\Application Data\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML (Where "YOUR_USER" is your username)
5. If you're simply updating the OS to a newer version skip this step. If doing a clean OS reload use BBSAK from BBSAK.org and wipe the device (after doing a complete backup) then after you get the error 507 (no OS installed) then proceed to next step.
6. Plug in BlackBerry and double click on "Loader.exe." It's located in c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
1. Please thank those who help you by clicking the "Like" button at the bottom of the post that helped you.

No host routing entries

after security wipin my girlfriends old blackberry i can not set up my email cause its now BES
host routing table has no entries!
how can i change it back to being BIS instead of BES?
also i have blackberry data plan on my contract

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
After any wipes, updates, etc., I always suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step...if any step does not succeed exactly as written, then stop and fall to the bottom, contacting your mobile service provider for formal support):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your BIS configuration for the affected email accounts (likely using the carrier BIS website from a PC, or trying, from the BB Browser, www.blackberry.com/integrate). Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
BTW -- Enterprise always shows on all BBs inside of the Email Configuration Wizard. When a proper BIS-level data plan is provisioned, Internet/Personal are added. But, Enterprise is ALWAYS there, regardless of if the user is activated on any BES or not.
Good luck!

Strange entries in WRT400N Routing Tables

I was trying to setup some static routes (unsuccessfully) when I noted some wierd entries in the routing table shown when clicking the "Show Routing Table" button in the Advanced Routing section of Setup. The entries are:
Destination LAN IP Subnet Mask Gateway Hop Count Interface
151.164.184.120 255.255.255.255 * 1 Internet (WAN)
192.168.207.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.207.1 1 LAN & Wireless
239.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 * 1 LAN & Wireless
127.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 192.168.207.1 1 LAN & Wireless
default 0.0.0.0 151.164.184.120 1 Internet (WAN)
I am concerned about the entries in bold format. The address 151.164.184.120 resolves to some area in Texas although I wasn't able to find more. Any idea what this could be? Should I be concerned?
Thanks.

You have PPPoE connection. You are connected to the PPP server 151.164.184.120 at your ISP. The first route says that the 151.164.184.120 is connected to the WAN interface. The default route says that your internet connection goes to the PPP server of your ISP.

CVP - SIP Proxy (Route Table entries)

I'm having little luck finding information on adding entries to the Route Table in Cisco SIP Proxy (8.5). I understand how to add a basic entry but what I really need to know is what wildcards are available to be used for the Key entries? Would these be the same as wildcards in IOS dial peers? If so, is there something that explicitly states this? Hopefully I'm just overlooking something obvious in the guide. Any help is appreciated!

I understand you are talking about "Local Static Routes" on the SIP tab of the CVP Call Server Configuration.
From the CVP OAMP page, on the Help menu you can find information about the content of the page where you are, Help -> This Page.
This is taken from CVP 8.0, but you should have something similar for 8.5:
Valid Formats for Dialed Numbers
Valid dialed number patterns are the same as for the ICM label sizes and limitations, including:
Use the period (.) or the X character for single-digit wildcard matching in any position.
Use the greater than (>), asterisk (*), or exclamation (!) character as a wildcard for 0 or more digits at the trailing end of a DN.
Do not use the character T for wildcard matching
Dialed numbers must not be longer than 24 characters
Pattern matching is applied from top to bottom of a list of DNs, with the result being the first match in the list, even if a more specific pattern would match further down the list.
Exact pattern matches take precedence over wildcard matches, regardless of the position of the DN in the list.

2911/k9 lose static routing table entry

Hi,
my cisco router 2911/k9 with release 15.2(4)m6a lose default and static routing table entry every day, and after a reload the entry came back to my routing table.
this is an extract of my config:
interface Serial0/0/0:0
no ip address
encapsulation frame-relay IETF
frame-relay lmi-type cisco
interface Serial0/0/0:0.1 point-to-point
ip address xxxxx.1
ip access-group 100 in
ip load-sharing per-packet
ip inspect cccc in
no cdp enable
frame-relay interface-dlci 100
interface Serial0/1/0:0

frame-relay interface-dlci 100
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 xxxxx.2
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 yyyyyy.2
and more ip route static specific
Please, Who can help me? Can be a bug ?

Hi,
It could be a bug but at this point, I am not that bold to assume that. We need more information.
May it be that your Frame Relay connection flaps? Is it possible that your subinterfaces go down? Please check the logs to see if the interfaces or subinterfaces change their status (up/down).
Can you verify the logs if there are any notes of recursive routing?
When you say the router loses the static routes, do they both completely disappear from the routing table? Do they at least stay configured in your running-config?
As a last-resort measure, turn on logging of debugging messages by logging buffered 1000000 debugging and then start the debug ip routing command. This command will cause a debugging message to be recorded every time there is a change to the routing table. At least we will see what event caused the default routes to disappear. You will probably need to run this debug running overnight till the default routes disappear.
Best regards,
Peter

Eem script monitor routing table - multiple entries into 1 email

I have the following script running to report on routing table changes
event manager applet route-table-monitor
event routing network 0.0.0.0/0 ge 1
action 0.5 set msg "Route changed: Type: $_routing_type, Network: $_routing_network, Mask/Prefix: $_routing_mask, Protocol: $_routing_protocol, GW: $_routing_lastgateway, Intf: $_routing_lastinterface"
action 1.0 syslog msg "$msg"
action 2.0 cli command "enable"
action 4.0 info type routername
action 5.0 mail server "10.*.*.*" to "roger.perkin@****" from "Switch1" subject "Routing Table Change" body "$msg $_cli_result"
It works perfectly however if multiple routes change I get multiple emails.
Last night we had a site go out and I got about 20 separate email for each subnet change.
What I would like to do is get this script to take all routes changed in a 1 minute interval and then output them into an email.
Not quite sure how I would go about that?
Thanks
Roger
Currently studying for my CCIE and just started on EEM, have not done much scripting before so this is all good stuff to know.

You can't do this with one policy. However, you could accomplish this with a timer policy that will batch up the pending updates, though. Something like this would work.
event manager applet route-table-monitor event routing network 0.0.0.0/0 ge 1 action 0.5 set msg "Route changed: Type: $_routing_type, Network: $_routing_network, Mask/Prefix: $_routing_mask, Protocol: $_routing_protocol, GW: $_routing_lastgateway, Intf: $_routing_lastinterface" action 0.6 syslog msg "$msg" action 1.0 handle-error type ignore action 2.0 context retrieve key RTRCTXT variable msgs action 3.0 if $_error ne FH_EOK action 4.0 set msgs "$msg\n" action 5.0 else action 6.0 append msgs "$msg\n" action 7.0 end action 8.0 handle-error type exit action 9.0 context save key RTRCTXT variable msgs!event manager applet route-table-batcher event timer watchdog time 60 action 1.0 handle-error type ignore action 2.0 context retrieve key RTRCTXT variable msgs action 3.0 if $_error eq FH_EOK action 4.0 info type routername action 5.0 mail server "10.*.*.*" to "roger.perkin@****" from "$_info_routername" subject "Routing Table Change" body "$msgs" action 6.0 end action 7.0 handle-error type exit

SMTP routing table does not seem to be working correctly.

Why isn't the SMTP routing table working properly?

First, make sure you have the routing table setup correctly.
Entries in the Routing table are in the following format:

<incoming recipient domain>:<route to this host>

For example, if you want all mail addressed to [email protected]
to be routed to mailhost1.realdomain.com, you would add the following
line to the SMTP routing table:

virtualdomain.com:mailhost1.realdomain.com

With the above option, any mail coming in addressed to <anyone>@virtualdomain.com
will be routed to mailhost1.realdomain.com. The recipient email
address will not be re-written, so mailhost1.realdomain.com needs to
accept mail addressed to the original address, @virtualdomain.com,
even though it is in realdomain.com.

Before adding, changing or deleting any SMTP routing table entries, double-check
with the DNS Administrator that the host names you specify are valid,
registered host names. If in doubt, you can use IP addresses for the
"route to" host, but not for the "incoming recipient domain".

Wild cards can be used in mail routing table options, but they indicate that a
hostname will fill that spot. For example:

*.domain.com:mailserver1.domain.com

In the above example, any mail addressed to <anyone>@<anyhost>.domain.com
will be routed to mailserver1.domain.com. However, mail addressed to
<anyone>@domain.com will not be routed. To fix this, add this
line:

domain.com:mailserver1.domain.com

Note: You cannot use the SMTP routing table to route all mail
addressed to a specific domain to a specific account. You would need to use
a "Mail Pool" account for this, which is only available in Messaging Server
3.5+.

is this entry valid for routing table in nms v 4.15 p6
* : anotherhot.mydomain.com:5000
assuming that my anotherhost is listening and accepting on port 5000 for smtp connections. and i wanna forward all the mails to that host

ISCSI boot with Intel NICs added to windows 2008 r2 routing table causes non iscsi traffic to attempt default routes on iscsi networks

I have a server with Intel 82576 Gigabit Dual Port Nics. I have configured them to use iSCSI boot the primary looks to 10.0.0.1/24 and the secondary looks to 10.0.1.1/24. The target is configured correctly. Everything boots as expected.
I have added the MPIO feature and configured MPIO for the iscsi initiator as per: http://blogs.technet.com/b/migreene/archive/2009/08/29/3277914.aspx.
My issue is that the iSCSI networks show up in the routing table like so:
I did not configure a default route in the Intel setup utility:
I tried to explicitly remove the 0.0.0.0 entry and leave blank, with no change. As you can see with the above routing table traffic attempts to travel over these routes:
C:\Users\Administrator>ping google.com
Pinging google.com [209.85.145.99] with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 10.0.0.201: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 10.0.1.201: Destination host unreachable.
Reply from 209.85.145.99: bytes=32 time=23ms TTL=51
Reply from 209.85.145.99: bytes=32 time=22ms TTL=51
Ping statistics for 209.85.145.99:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
A ping to the outside world first attempts on 10.0.0.x/24 network, then on 10.0.1.x/24 network and then finally on the network the traffic should go over. I don't want my iSCSI traffic to ever show up with a default route. How do I get rid of it?
route delete 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 "on-link" results in: The route deletion failed: The parameter is incorrect.
route delete 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 on-link results in: The route deletion failed: The parameter is incorrect.
route delete 0.0.0.0 deletes all default routes, then I have to add back in the "valid default route" of 192.168.100.6.
I would like to not have to do a route delete though.

So I've sort of given up on fixing the gateway assignment in the route for iSCSI boot. I configured a DHCP server to give out the information required by iSCSI boot and configured the network cards to use DHCP for their configuration. I insured
that my DHCP server gave out no default gateway entry. However, I still got the undesired routes in the routing table. This makes me assume that there isn't a "fix" for it, only the workaround.
Here is the script I run on each iSCSI Boot initiator (you would obviously change the ip number to suit your environment):

SMTP routing table

Hello,
Solaris 8/ Iplanet Messaging Server 4.X
Solaris 8 / SunOne Messaging Server 5.2
My question is about SMTP routing table and for
iMS4.x AND SMS5.2
Question:
In my SunOne Messaging Server 5.X I have 10 domains.
mydomain0.com, mydomain1.com to mydomain9.com
I try to have this:
all peoples from mydomain0.com, send mail to internet,
mail is send to smtp.relay0.com
all peoples from mydomain1.com, send mail to internet,
mail are send to smtp.relay1.com
etc...
And I have 10 relays
Can I do this, and how (I don't see in documentation or
FAQ)
thank you

Bad host routes making websites inaccessible!?

After months without any issues, I suddenly started having problems accessing some specific web based resources. The connectivity issue is isolated to my MAC on my home wireless network. I have a windows based system on the same wireless network with no issues. I have a wired windows based system on the same network with no issues. I did a lot of research and saw that many people have seen these types of issues, but none of the fixes posted help me. So I went to check the routing table on my MAC and found what I believe are my issues:
Results for a problem sites:
Keiths-MacBook-Pro:~ keith$ route -n get x.x.x.x
   route to: x.x.x.x
destination: default
       mask: 0.0.0.104
interface: en1
The mask is not DEFAULT or 0.0.0.0?
   route to: X.X.104.130
destination: X.X.104.130
NO MASK
interface: en1
The destination is the same as the target host, as opposed to DEFAULT? Also, there is NO MASK entry?
Results for a good site:
   route to: 72.21.215.232
destination: default
       mask: default
    gateway: 10.0.0.1
interface: en1
This is what it should look like.
I'm using a standard, simple home LAN configuration, meaning access to remote resources on all devices on my LAN point to the default gateway. There are no host specific routes on any of my devices. I also tested connectivity on a celluar wireless service and I'm seeing similar results.
Can anyone help with this issue? Thanks.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

My Connection Manager Administration Kit profile, was created on Windows 2012 R2 CMAK with the following settings:
"Make this connection the client's default gateway" is UNticked on the IPv4 tab.
Define a routing table update is specified with a text file containing:
+++ Start of txt file +++
REMOVE_GATEWAY
add 10.172.16.0 mask 255.255.255.0 default metric default if default
+++ End of txt file +++
The txt file is saved in DOS/Windows format (not Unicode or UTF-8 which I've read causes problems)
I've tried everything in lower and upper case in the txt file after reading that the file might be case sensitive
The following appears on the client with logging enabled:
[cmdial32] 10:42:34

[cmdial32] 10:42:40

[cmdial32] 10:42:43
13 Disconnect Event CallingProcess = C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmdial32.dll
Where can I find out what error codes 8000ffff or -2147418113 mean?

That was it. Thanks, Steven
"By default, the dial-up entry and the VPN entry have Make this connection the default gateway selected.
Leave this default in place, and remove any gateways by using the REMOVE_GATEWAY command in the routing table update file itself."
It seems counter-intuitive to leave
Make this connection the default gateway selected, when I specifically don't want that behaviour, but leaving it selected and using REMOVE_GATEWAY works for me.

No entries in my Host Routing table
