Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
Hi,

I was wondering how do i find out the IP address of the UBR or CMTS so i can setup a ping monitor :s, i thought it was the second hop after my router, but im unsure now.

Any help would be appreciated

David :)

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
You can find your CMTS from a reverse trace route.

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
at the forum saying


1 31 ms 1 ms 1 ms CISCOE4200 [192.168.10.1]
2 26 ms 39 ms 16 ms cpc5-mort6-2-0-gw.croy.cable.virginmedia.com
3 40 ms 26 ms 10 ms mort-geam-1a-ge215.network.virginmedia.net
4 221 ms 217 ms 205 ms croy-core-1b-tenge73.network.virginmedia.net
5 11 ms 35 ms 16 ms croy-sm-1-ge146.network.virginmedia.net
6 13 ms 42 ms 14 ms cache1.service.virginmedia.net

More down saying
all the uBR/CMTS connect to a GEAM
then saying old ubr will not show at trace route

so mine appear like that

<1 ms 192.168.1.1
7 ms BABIS-PC [0.0.0.0]
18 ms camd-geam-.....

33 ms hari-core-......

8 ms hari-core-.....

8 ms popl-bb-.....

sorry been so thick but here my confusion: is the camd-geam or the harri core?
I guess is the camd?? but why say my pc with 0.0.0.0

My set up is SH(modem mode)>draytek 2920n

Thanks

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
I tried that tool and it shows me nothing :\ as it always gives me different results before my IP D:

babis3g 12-07-2012 00:10

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
its a reverse trace route tool

look down at the end of the trace 9-10 or 11
example with mine:
1...
2...
3.....
4....
5.....
6......
7.....
8 hari-core-1b-.....
9 camd-geam-......
10 camd-cmts-14- <--------
11 cpc5-camd....

should be one saying the first 3-4 letters of your area then cmts
i think that is the one and to me it change each time the address but i put one of these adddresses in the monitor and seems it is the one (my monitor up)

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
this article may help as i see you are with ex-ntl

Quote:

Oh yes, the ex-ntl architecture is slightly different. While on Ex-Telewest pretty much everywhere all the uBR/CMTS connect to a GEAM on ex-ntl the older uBRs which house the 10Mb and occasionally some 20Mb customers are connected to Cable Access Modules, cams, which then go off to cores. The DOCSIS 3.0 CMTS which serve 100Mb, 50Mb and 30Mb along with some of the 20Mb and occasionally 10Mb customers connect directly to a core. With ex-Telewest any site that has a CMTS/uBR will have a GEAM at the same physical site to connect to, with ex-ntl these devices connect to a switch at the local site which doesn't show up in traceroutes then go off to a PoP / headend where they go onto cams or cores.

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
So if i read it correctly, Luton core is effectively my ubr/cmts ?

babis3g 12-07-2012 01:01

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
mine is different via command prompt

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
Urgh.

I'm not sure what the point of all this is.

All I'm going to say is reverse DNS is not accurate.

boroboi 12-07-2012 12:23

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
a CMTS isn't listed on any of those traceroutes.

thenry 12-07-2012 13:19

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
Lykaios19899 has his stated. babis3g doesn't.

qasdfdsaq 12-07-2012 13:58

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
babis3g's has been screwed around with by some custom configuration or crappy software on his local computer, replacing his actual CMTS with "0.0.0.0"

babis3g 12-07-2012 14:33

Re: Find CMTS or UBR ip
 
Apologise guys.I stop here

Just thought and for my knowledge to involve but No way to blame Lykaios because if was not him some else will be some time

My configuration is with draytek 2920n:
adsl (bridged mode,DHCP off,wifi off) @ wan 1 (pppoe)
VM (modem mode)@ wan 2 (static or dynamic ip)
Then to Pc
All are by default in the router apart i have chage the dns of each isp with one that works good for both lines(force router to use dns option at lan>general set up)
Qos off

That its

Again my apologies
