Dear group members,
In the network environment which I maintain, we have a video streaming signal piping from my station, to Los Angeles using a direct IPLC line of 45 Mbps. Once reach Los Angeles it was pipe to another equipment which present the video signal to various recipient.
Once I tried to have a internet connection by subcribing an E1 line to the ISP provider in Los Angeles. I got 32 Public IP and quiet happy with the service. In Los Angeles, I have 1 unit of Cisco 7513 with a DS3 card. I got another Cisco 7513 in Malaysia with a DS3 card.
To make the internet connection work, I subscribed an E1 link with the local ISP in Los Angeles. I bought a Cisco 3640 with E1 port. I use the FE port on Cisco 3640 to tap to the Cisco 7513.
Over in Malaysia, I bought a cisco 2811 and tapped from a FE port to Cisco 7513 FE port. Then I created a tunnel between cisco 3640 and cisco 2811. Below is the sketch diagram.
|----------Los Angeles------------------| |---------------Malaysia---------------|
ISP -----E1------Cisco3640 -----FE-----Cisco7513 ===T3==Cisco7513------FE----Cisco2811
Tunnel
In this tunnel I put in a public IP and I manage to get internet.
I got one of my office friend who wants a 256K for his personal emailing system. Using the current E1 subcription, I planned to give him 1 public IP and tap his computer to a Cisco Catalyst 3750 port and rate limit it to 256K.
The question or challenge for discussion here is can I do tunnelling on Cisco 3750.
What other options that I have to play since I only have Cisco Catalyst
3750 to play with, I do not intend to buy any more since this is more on exploration work. Hard for me to justify to the company since I cannot create a busines impact from the exploration work.
