First, I noticed that the default port for radius on an Ascend box is 49.
Thats not the standard is it?? I changed it to 1645.
Second, I set up the max to work like the PM 3,e.g. gave it an IP in a small
subnet and the assigned pool are 10 subsequent addresses to that in the same
small subnet. When you do this on a pm 3, as long as you arent trying to
route small subnets to remote users, things work fine. A packet hits the PM
3, the pm 3 realizes that the packet is destined for one of the remote
addresses it has assigned and it forwards it. On the other hand, the max
does not seem to want to do this. Is the Pm 3 just special that way, or
should the max be operating in the same way? Or should I not be assigning
remote addresses in the same subnet as the ip address of the PM 3?
Maybe I should just forget about the max. The PM 3's are SO much easier to
set up. But the temptation of neat features is there, i.e. the max can
bridge, you can set up to 10 ip pools, the Max can perform special services,
and be a mini dns server as well. The nat of course which the PM 3 has now.
