ssh transfer of arp access-list to 3750 hang up

t.fiala
Level 1
Level 1

I need configure remotely i.a. the list about 462 lines (2 not full "c-class" IP scopes)

on the 3570 switch . Ssh protocoll transfers shorter lists well.

Transfer a longer list stops usually after the 375th line. Ssh connection

remains hung up in the idle state.

Transfer of the same list via telnet (copy-paste into the telnet window)

is always successful. But i'm afraid ssh is obligatory in this case.

One more thing : Transfer a longer list via ssh to unburdened switch is

always successful too. Any overburdening issue?

Could somebody give me a solution or workaround?

Switch used:

Cisco IOS Software, C3750 Software (C3750-IPBASEK9-M), Version 12.2(25)SEE2, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

ROM: Bootstrap program is C3750 boot loader

Can't you just tftp it from a server ? USe the following.

Use the copy {ftp: | rcp: | tftp:} system:running-config command to load a configuration file from a network server to the router's running configuration. The configuration will be added to the running configuration as if the commands were typed in the command line interface. Thus, the resulting configuration will be a combination of the previous running configuration and the loaded configuration file, with the loaded configuration file having precedence.

This depends on what SSH client you are using.

The easiest thing to do would be to paste it in 200 lines at a time.

Thanks Leigh.

I am sorry, I did not describe my problem in detail. Lists are generated from the database and transferred automatically at each modification using OpenSSH library from a PHP script. The number "375 lines" refers to this method. The ssh clients in MS Windows (PuTTy, Teraterm) can not be used at all. They stops after 10 lines approx. (And are not suitable for automated transfer.)

Hi there,

Rather than have openssh log in and paste the lines, have you considered tftp'ing the new config to running-config?

Hi Leigh,

we will consider all possible methods. I would like to load the smallest necessary parts of configuration only. Your suggestion has the disadvantage we would have to keep the whole actual configuration outside the switch. I suppose there should be a more convenient solution. The more or less constant number of lines transferred successfully seems to be highly suspicious. One more thing: lists are usually loaded successfully inside a LAN , hang up occures at a greater distance only ( 7 hops Gigabit Ethernet routers). TF

Hi there,

You should be able to upload small bits of config to the router/switch via tftp on problems.

Give it a try!

Thanks Glen,

it is what I was seeking for. Works perfectly.

Hi Glen,

I've used ftp transfer, but transfer rate is

82 bytes/sec. Is it OK? The time needed for

transfer the largest list is about 5 minutes, it is nearly unusable. Do you have an advice

how to speed up the tranfer?

Regards,

Tomas
