I've got a customer with an OR-U connected to our PM2e with a 5-BRI board.
I love 'em - works great! We now have an issue where they've put a modem on
the serial port, and can't route past the OR-U.
The basics:
OR-U with ComOS 3.4.2Lc1 IP address = 199.184.220.5
Dialup users are always assigned IP address 199.184.220.3
Routing table with no user logged in:
north-router> show rout
Destination Gateway Flag Met Interface

The 205.181.197.2 address is our PM2. Their class C on the ethernet
happily routes correctly, but the user can't get anything *but* the machines
on their ethernet.
Trying to get to the dialled-up machine from our end results in packets
hanging at their OR-U:
brainiac:~jh# traceroute 199.184.220.3
traceroute to 199.184.220.3 (199.184.220.3), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets

Have I missed something basic here? As far as I can tell, the routing shown
on the OR-U is correct, so why can't the traffic get to that line? Thanks
in advance for the help.
