Really, funny thats not what the reviews say that my boss and the boss above him give me twice a year...
Correct....

Anything Higher than cable??? WTF do you mean???

Really, all the ones I have seen are about a week, sometimes shorter... If an ISP knows they are going to be doing some work, such as re-subnetting changing things like the DNS servers IP or anything like that, they set the lease times even shorter so the CM or CPE will get the new DHCP info quicker...

Imagine, if I was doing an IP clean up because there was a router/CMTS or DLSAM that had 10,000 users on it; then put in a 2nd CMTS to improve services and moved 25-50% off the 1st CMTS, to the second or 3rd or so on...

The scopes for the 1st router would now have a surplus of IPs...

In the current enviorment, ARIN (American Registry of Internet Numbers, the offical body, that all US companies request their IP Blocks from) is really tight on giving out new super blocks, so we really have to use them sparingly.. Till everyone gets IPV6 implemented...

Now, thinking about scopes Times that by Residential CM and CPE address, VOIP CM and CPE addresses, Set Top Box (Cable Box) CM and CPE addresses, Small Buisness Cable Modem CM and CP addresses, etc... Thats a potential for a ton of scopes that either their subnet mask needs to be shortend or changed all together...

If you just changed the interfaces address on the router and the CM or CPEs did not renew their info, it would pretty much break stuff, till people started rebooting or release renewing everyhting...

I would be so nice, if there was a button in the DHCP server appication that would for the clients to release or renew.... But there is no provision for it in the RFC, so I doubt that will never happen, plus it seems like a possible exploit, just waiting to be discovered...

But I guess they could be bumping up the lease times now... I'll have to check... I don't admin the DHCP servers anymore... I just lay out IPs for all the scopes and put them on the routers and CMTS... I mostly work on Cisco hardware...

I haven't seen that done in years... I know AT&Ts @Home Cable used to do it like that before they sold off everything to multiple other cable companies and started offering DSL instead of Cable Modems.... Not sure what they do know as I don't work on DSL...

Every NIC (card), be it a 3com (what I've used mostly) some other brand, or one built onto the motherboard it has a unique 16 digit (0000.0000.0000.0000) mac address...

When the CPE (customers Computer or Wireless router, etc) does a DHCP broadcast request, your cable modem or DSL, does a Unicast request to the GIadder (points to the DHCP Servers address) and the DHCP looks and sees if it has a lease for it or even a static reservation then it give it and address... If it has neither, depeing on how its provisioned it gives it an IP out of a given scope...

Unless you are talking about the IP of the CM, which I beleive we have always been talking CPEs here, it has nothing to do with the CM, except for the unicast forwarding...

Sadly, for network admins, there are tools out there that people can download that will allow them to change their macs for non legit reasons

like

http://www.klcconsulting.net/Change_MAC_w2k.htm

google it...

and there are a few network tools that have this ability built in for legit testing that if in the wrong hands can be used for the wrong things...

Can you say Comcast? They have over 2 week leases on DHCPs. Even months. They couldnt even change my IP when I requested it.

Higher than cable would be Fios, T3, etc. By higher I mean faster than cable. AT&T still works the same for their DSL as it used to. I havent used their U-verse in a while and when I did I didnt care.

Ive actually used the tool above to try to get a new IP. Comcast refused to give a new IP even with a /release /renew command. All it does is mask the MAC address of the network card. It doesnt change the MAC of the router/modem or what ever hardware you have hooked up to the source of the net in your house and thus wont give you a new IP. Most providers use Static IPs now anyways. You would have to call them and fight with them for hours before they would just tell you they cant do it even though they can.

I can both sides of long and short leases...

The Govt. wants long leases and logs, so that when they supena an ISP and say, who had what IP, the ISP can pinpoint it better...

I think logs are supposed to be kept for 5 years... Not saying anyone does though...

Also, some applications are really touchy about IP renewals/re-bind...

Most of the time it happens so quick, no one knows... However some applications like stock tickers and stuff that uses real time streams, sometimes hicup when a renewal happens...

Sometime they have to stop and start or do something to make it work right again...

I think the earlier version of window's TCP/IP stack shared a bit of the blame in this too...

Lastly, with long leases you can stretch out of often renew requests are hitting the server....

I know DHCP request are not that big/bandwidth intensive, but when you have a quarter million+ unique requests hitting a box or two, it adds up...

They couldnt even change my IP when I requested it..

I can see them saying that.... More than likley the person you had on the phone was in call center somewhere or tier 1 support and has no access to the servers...

The server guys don't want to be bothered and don't want every lil script kiddie or person that sees something in their log asking for their IP to be changed no matter the reason... They figure once you allow a few, its going to be standard practice... Same for unblocking certain ports on ACLs....

Higher than cable would be Fios, T3, etc. By higher I mean faster than cable. AT&T still works the same for their DSL as it used to. I havent used their U-verse in a while and when I did I didnt care..

With DOCSIS 3, Wideband and M-CMTS gear starting to pop up all over, there is not much ""Broadband" other than Fiber or Electrical DS type connections that would be faster than cable...

Typically, with DSx, Tx, OCx and straight ethernet and Fiber connections (not referin to Fios) NO DHCP is even used (from the Provider Side)....

There would typically be a point to point between the ISP and the Customer CPE, then there would be a block configured behind it, then its the customers job to manage and route their own IP traffic... They can then do their own DHCP if they wish...

Ive actually used the tool above to try to get a new IP. Comcast refused to give a new IP even with a /release /renew command. All it does is mask the MAC address of the network card. It doesnt change the MAC of the router/modem or what ever hardware you have hooked up to the source of the net in your house and thus wont give you a new IP. Most providers use Static IPs now anyways. You would have to call them and fight with them for hours before they would just tell you they cant do it even though they can.

I've seen it done, several times...

Just as an example, your NICs MAC is 0010.cfda.xxxx it would then send requests sourced from that MAC,

From what I have saw in the past, the software (was on a crappy linux box, Knoppix I think) and it would spoof it and somehow send requests sourced from say 0010.cfda.zzzz instead of 0010.cfda.xxxx... Nothing to do with the Modem....

Also the techs in the field have some type of Meter gadget made by Sunrise telecom I think called a DSAM... It has a programable MAC address...

A legitmate use would be to emulate a customers modem/MAC with a different peice of hardware, to trouble shoot IP/MAC conflicts and other issues...

If this can do it, I'm sure more can...

I'm thinking different regions or markets must do theings different and implement different solutions...

That would explain why we are seeing different things in different areas...

vids?

in the vid section. Nothing too crazy though because my daughter was with me.

I'm thinking that may have been ment to me, but if so, not sure why, If you read back I was asking ed.lester why he posts here, if he hates it and everyone and everything... Unless I somehow got mixed up... It happens...

It was meant towards me. And taking my question to jim and flipping it to me is far from clever. please show me where I said I "hate everyone and everything" here? that was jimj that said that (of course not directly, he worded it slightly different).. There are some talented people on this site (and some with some great taste) Your flamed out blazer certianly isnt cool though, sorry. As far as "where my rides are" I told you they are in my garage, you couldn't seem to figure out what that meant, sadly. It has been posted in this thread what I drive... Christ you are stupid.. no wonder you are married to a wetback...at least you found someone your speed.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Some of it is people trying to convince the OP he is 'wrong' for his opinion of what looks good, and some of it is the OP trying to convince those people they are 'wrong' for their opinion that he is wrong. The rest is mostly just each of them trying to not appear defensive about each others opinion, and the subsequent denial of said defensiveness. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/face2face.gif.c4346df91ccb89a430ef126c23624157.gif

Why don't people get it still....since when I have I tried to influence or convince people that their opinion is wrong. I've said it so many times...i know not everyone may not like it and I have no problem with that... *facepalm*

i'm not really sure why people can't understand that people have different styles.
Not everyone likes a tubbed S10. Not everyone likes a VIP'd G35. Why can't everyone just appreciate the work that went into the car?

Sure, it might not be your style, but if the person is being reasonable about it, and not saying their car is better than everyone elses, everyone should just say it isn't their style, and move on.

it's like appreciating a custom molded body kit on a POS ricer. you know that there was a lot of work that went into it, but it doesn't really fit your style.

I'll give props to the S10, I actually like it. Nice ride. I'm not a fan of the wide wheels, but the truck in general is nice. I say leave the chrome trimmings because it matches the grill.

Please don't tell me it's the one in your avatar. No need to post pics of that sh*tbox

now youlike the s10?

 

[donpisto 5,000+ posts]

hey dumbass, SHIT is not censored! And Id take my truck over your douched up ride ANY DAY OF THE WEEK and twice on Friday.

Whoop dee doo....want a cookie now?

Mmmm k...you'll take your truck over my car, so? I'll take my car over your truck because here in So Cal, more people like it, trust me. Plus, I can fit more girls in my car....if you ask a girl here in So Cal which car you wanna ride in, guess what she'll see....the white G35 with the curtains....i can care less what you think of my car or how much you insult it, the only insult there is, is you to yourself, because you still can't get over the fact that it's a style, just like your wide tires...not everyone likes that //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif but you don't seem to understand that. Get a GED then speak

 

[donpisto 5,000+ posts]

Thats how you should have kept the g35

What's the fun in that?

The car still looks good...classic. Unlke a car the looks like the wheels are about to fall off. As for stock......NOT.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Stop trolling the high school for young girls. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

The sooner this "style" fades out...the better.

I hope your G35 ends up like this VW Rabbit. In the crusher for unsafe driving conditions.
