(ASCEND) RE: Interpeting data from wddialout



Good Luck!! I went through the same thing and is one of the reasons I
joined this list.  I submitted an inquiry to Ascend and besides their
original response of it looks like a NetBIOS packet please check our
tech support site for NetBIOS call filters, I was TOTALLY IGNORED and
to date still have not received any attempt at an acknowledgement of
my subsequent email (other than the auto-responder, this is ticket #
blah blah blah.)  I eventually downloaded a utility called NetAnt (I
believe it was from www.windows95.com) to analyze the packets that
were initiating the dialout.  Unfortunately the demo version of NetAnt
(the REAL version costs $600.00....and for a Network Admin, I would
say, WELL WORTH THE MONEY!!) only displays the first 5 packets.  It
took some diligence in reactivating the packet capture to determine
what the hex packet meant and what protocol was initiating it.

I don't know if I quite understand your question but if you mean that
a number is calling your P75 then your P75 is calling back and you're
trying to figure out what number is dialing YOU, to cause YOUR P75 to
call back, don't read any further.

For whatever it's worth, I'm running Win95/NT on a LAN w/
NetBEUI/NetBIOS & TCP/IP and this is the call filter I ended up using
that stopped the dreaded never ending session (DO NOT TRY TO UPLOAD
THIS TO YOUR PIPELINE, I manually created this to show you my entries
and I don't know if it is the proper format for UPLOAD):

One last comment: I think the order of the filters make a difference
also (e.g., if you put the Out filter 12 as Out filter 1 then
EVERYTHING will reset the call timer because it works it's way down
the filters in ascending order checking the criteria then stops if it
meets one.)

Hope this helps.  Again....GOOD LUCK!!!

Help!

I am trying to write a filter to prevent random and unwanted TCP/IP
dialouts on an ascend Pipeline 75.     I think I have a fundamental
understanding of how to write the filter but am not certain how to
locate the number that is actually initiating the call.   The hex-dump
from the wddialout debug command looks like this…….

  Date: 01/01/1990.  Time: 05:42:50
Cause an attempt to place call to 16194589062
WD_DIALOUT_DISP: chunk 26872E type IP.
(task: 2688D0, time: 20570.40) 60 octets @ 2A9A68
  [0000]: 00 C0 7B 6E 85 A3 00 60 97 CA 0A 54 08 00 45 00
  [0010]: 00 3C C9 88 00 00 7F 11 DB 7D D0 89 FD 94 D0 89
  [0020]: F8 02 06 04 00 35 00 28 B9 25 00 01 01 00 00 01
  [0030]: 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 77 77 77 06 6E

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
