If you found similar alarms, you can follow the guide and try to workaround the issue.

Problem

My customer found WAE REST API not workable, after checked, found wae-db have issue and report alarm, as follow.
And try to restart the WAE service and reload VM, not any useful.

[root@wae-auto wae-db]# service --status-all | grep wae

My customer match a issue that business traffics take IP6,7 flag, then the traffics auto mapping to EXP6,7 that cause control police congestion, and ISIS flapping due to BFD flap. So they want to check which traffics have incorrect flag by netflow, so need to check ording for netflow and QOS at input direction. I check some documents, nobody notice that, so the article will show test info, you can check if you need. Finaly test result: At ingress direction, packets will be cached first by netflow, then do other action in QOS.

Btw, due to auto mapping from TOS to EXP by range, e.g: TOS 192-223 will map to EXP6; TOS 223-255 will map to EXP7. So if we want to check the issue by netflow, suggest filter EXP data, as in my follow test, check by follow command:

We often to do complicated lab repro by traffics generator – IXIA, so it is important for us to use IXIA. In order to easy to handle the skill, I done some example by video. If you have good IXIA example video, please put here and share with us. The article will continue to be updated.

If you want to check steps in Ubuntu, can check this attachment: lvm-resize-ubuntu14.04

1. Follow disk info

Check system contents by “sudo df -H”, check all disk status by “sudo fdisk -l”.

[root@frank ~]# df -H

Introduction

There are some internal tools that can decode SPP packets at former, but they are not work now. In some scenario, customer coudln’t do span on our asr9k, so we only need SPP, then will face to how to decode SPP result.

The article disscuss how to covert SPP original data to text2pcap readable format, then decode by text2pcap. You only do the script that can auto work. Btw, before do that, you need have python2.7 and text2pcap (integrate in wireshark). If you have python3.0 or newer, that maybe have some issue, because some function have a bit different, you need adjust them by yourself.

Solution

Original SPP data:
