About «networking» possibilities and limitations ...

Hi,
I experienced 2 major network crash of my little home network: iMac G5 (OS 10.4.11) + iMac Intel (10.6.2) + Airport Extreme Base Station.
I don't know what I did exactly either times other than that I was experiencing with the network. I was either running a script to mount a shared volume on my G5 or maybe trying to get access of a folder located on the G5 from my Intel machine and I suspect that while doing that a backup was maybe running from the G5 to the Intel machine. I cannot recall what was really going on ... I was so surprised by the consequences. I don't really want to try it again, because it is long to get back to work after this type of crash.
The network crashed ... 2 times with the same result. I surely did something wrong. After restarting both computers, the result was that on my G5 the frontmost user had lost it's Library folder, thus all the user setups were lost and with it my personal data folders also. I had to do a full restore from a SuperDuper backup done a few days ago. Restoring personal file was also possible from my Dropbox and CrashPlan files and folders.
What preoccupies me is what did I do to cause those 2 crashes ? If I better understand what are the limits and possibilities of networking that should help. Maybe that somebody experienced in networks, will help a novice like me find what he does not understand:
• on computer B, can I mount at the same time the shared volumes A1 and A2 of computer A ?
• if I am doing a backup from A to an attached drive to computer B, can I mount at the same time the shared volume A1 on computer B ?
• can trying to mount a shared volume by script over a network easily crash the network ?
Hoping somebody can help me with this crashing problem ...
Regards.

Hi William,
Thanks for helping.
Could you explain in detail what you mean by "network crash"?
By network crash I mean that both computer froze ... After restart, I realized that the frontmost user before crash had lost it's Library folder and all personnal document folder. The crashed user on the G5 was replaced with a brand new user with the same name but empty. Both crashes gave the same result ...
• on computer B, can I mount at the same time the shared volumes A1 and A2 of computer A ?
• if I am doing a backup from A to an attached drive to computer B, can I mount at the same time the shared volume A1 on computer B ?
• can trying to mount a shared volume by script over a network easily crash the network ?
My experience is, for the first item, that I can only mount one volume at a time ... If I mount one volume, to see the other I have to unmount the first. For the second and third item, my experience is that they are probably why my network crashed ....
You said:
All those things should be possible and allowed, given properly operating OS software.
What do you mean by «given properly operating OS software» ?
Regards.

What are the possibilities and limitation of using Out of the box content search webpart on SharePoint Online 2013/O365 ?

Hi All,
We are migrating from on-premise SharPoint 2010 to SharePoint online 2013.
I have few questions below:
What are the possibilities and limitations of using Out of the box content search webpart?
Also, how the cross site publishing will work in SharePoint online something with managed navigations and product catalog apporach? if it is not supported, then what are the alternatives to acheive the same?
Appriciate any commnets/clarifications.Thanks in advance.
Thanks,

Compare the strengths and limitations of the Web Parts
It’s important that you understand the strengths and limitations of the two Web Parts because if you choose the wrong one, your site could run into performance problems. You can use both Web Parts to show content that is based on a query. In a simplified
world, here’s how you can decide between the two:
Use the CQWP when you have a limited amount of content, your query is simple, and you don’t expect your content to grow much in the future.
Use the CSWP in all other scenarios when you want to show content that is based on a query.
The table below gives a comparison of the two Web Parts:

Advice About Network Design and Security

Dear All,
I have the following network scenario:
An Internal Mail server that forward the mail messages to an external sendmail server that send/receive the mails from Internet.
Between the two mails servers starting from the inside, there are a L3Switch that act like bridge among the internal networks subnets 172.16.0.0/22 where is connected the internal mail server .161.
The L3Switch is connected to the first Pix on the inside interface, and it is connected to the second Pix inside interface by its Dmz interface.The second pix has connected on the outside interface the ISP router, and on its DMZ the sendmail server that has a public ip 84.184.164.83/29.
My question is:
From a security point of view, how is important that the internal and external mail server do not has routing informations about the external and internal networks ?I have configured the second pix to perform a port redirection in this way:
static (dmz,inside) tcp 172.16.243.1 smtp 84.184.164.83 smtp netmask 255.255.255.255
The internal mail server forward the mail to 172.16.243.1 the pix apply the static, perform the port redirection to 84.184.164.83.
Than I have added also:
static (dmz,inside) 172.26.243.1 84.184.164.83 netmask 255.255.255.255
In this way the pix perform the outside nat so the source address is changed from 84.184.164.83 to 172.26.243.1,so I have configured on the external mail server the 172.26.243.1 instead of the real ip.

Hi,
I'm not sure about best practice in this area, but I think it's safe to say that the less information that's available on your externally reachable devices, the better. I think your config is sound, but if possible, it's a good idea to retrict access to the smtp port of your external mail server to trusted hosts.
Cheers,

Question about network simlocks and countries

No, I'm not asking how to unlock the phone, as that would be unethical. (Whether or not it is illegal is an interesting question, but not one I'm prepared to venture into here.)
A friend of mine has a phone that is simlocked to Orange in the UK, and I'm contemplating buying it from him.
However, even though I'm with Orange, I live in Switzerland.
Will a phone simlocked to Orange(UK) work with Orange(CH)?

The simlock information stored in the usually specifies network operator and country. The phone may ignore the country setting if the operator information is correct but I wouldn't bet on it!

Question about networking iMac and streaming video to TV

I have the 24" iMac 2.66GHz with 4 G ram. Currently using Motorola SBG900 (Docsis 2) cable modem & router to stream Comcast through house (another PC, iPhones, LG Blu Ray player/digital video streamer).
Recently acquired a Netgear Rangemax 3700 which is supposed to be the fastest current wireless router. Here are my questions:
1) Can I just use the Motorola SBG900 as modem ONLY and run the ethernet out of it to the Netgear router (thus bypassing the router built into the SBG900). Will this accelerate the streaming of video to other receivers?
2) Would I be better off with a Motorola 6120 Docsis 3 Cable modem feeding the Netgear router (even though my Comcast cable feed is Docsis 2, not 3)?
3) Since my Comcast account is rated 10 Mbps max (though it sometimes goes up to 15 or so late at night) and I believe the existing Motorola SBG90 is rated at 54 Mbps, is the limiting factor the speed of my Comcast connection and all else doesn't matter? That is, is it impossible to speed up my streaming or download speed without a faster connection to the Internet?
4) What kinds of connections are there that are faster than Comcast cable connections?
Basically, I don't want to waste money or time if I'm already at the maximum throughput available given my connection. If I can get marginal speed increases by adding new modem and router, that's fine. I'll do that.
Thanks for your help.
PS: I owned and returned the Airport Extreme Base Station. It did not increase the speed of my connection or streaming, but then it tested very poorly at www.smallnetbuilder.com -- about half the speed of the Netgear Rangemax.

Can't help with Q 1 + 2, but here are some things to consider re:
+3) Since my Comcast account is rated 10 Mbps max (though it sometimes goes up to 15 or so late at night) and I believe the existing Motorola SBG90 is rated at 54 Mbps, is the limiting factor the speed of my Comcast connection and all else doesn't matter? That is, is it impossible to speed up my streaming or download speed without a faster connection to the Internet?+
My Comcast account is rated 15 Mbps and I never get that. I've done everything I can here including Cat 6 cables (instead of Cat 5), but the major problem/hangup in my case is: Comcast is using 20-year old buried cables from their hub (approx. 10 mi across town) to the neighborhoods here - those cables are "leftovers" from the company Comcast purchased the rights from. So, we not only have old cables, but the little boxes all over the neighborhood feed at least 6 - 10 homes each, so you are sharing the available bandwidth with the neighbors. And, whenever everyone seems to be online at the same time, my downloads slow down to a c r a w l (as slow or slower than dialup occasionally!).
So, unless you have a better/newer cable setup where you are, you need to keep that in mind; in that case, no matter what you do, you are at the mercy of Comcast's equipment and your neighbors' usage.
4) The only one I know of is FioS (fiber optic).

Short question about networking, Threads and web services..

Lets say I got 2 classes, Midlet A and Thread B.
I created Thread B because web services (jsr-172) uses networking and It has to be done in a separate thread other then the Midlet A.
So, in Thread B, I have the run(), where I do all my stuff, and some getSomething() methods.
I need to have run() complete before calling getSomething(), so I used something like this in Midlet A:
while(true){
if(b.isAlive())
getSomething();
}Problem is, Thread B only runs to completion when I don't call b.isAlive(). (I know from System.out.println I placed in it) When I do use any methods like wait() or join() or isAlive(), Thread B stops at the web service call.
I really don't understand what's the problem. I've tried various ways to only call getSomething() when the thread finishes running, but all of them made my WTK emulator hang at the part where it asks for permission to access the network.
If I don't use getSomething(), which is the purpose of starting the thread in the first place, it runs fine in the emulator and doesn't hang anywhere. Oh the irony.

Bump!
Anyone got even half a clue what's wrong? =O
Hmm. I think that having the midlet wait for the thread causes the midlet to hang because the thread will then wait for the midlet for permission to access the network, but the midlet is waiting for the thread to finish it's code. Damn.

JTAPI performance and limits

If you are monitoring all call and terminal events for all phones via JTAPI, does it burden your CUCM since it has to respond to your app about these events -- specially when you have more than a thousand phone. Are there some guidelines about JTAPI performance and limits -- i.e maximum number of phones/JTAPI client, etc.

Please check you have enabled AXL updates on the Call Manager side:
For CUCM 4.x
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucm/dir_plugin/plug413.html
Do you have the CTI Manager service running on the server you're attempting to make a JTAPI Provider?
In CRS 4.x and later, it should create the JTAPI and RM JTAPI users, but it may prompt for CCM 'administrator' credentials to add the users. If you have MLA enabled, this really means the 'ccmadministrator' user or a user with similar privileges.

Hi,
I dont think it makes any difference if deployed via VSO, as far as i know the the Network In/Out metric include the

HOW TO CONFIGURE GUEST NETWORK AND LIMITE BANDWIDTH

Dear all,
Please help me how to configure internet access rule and limited the bandwidth for guest network via TMG Forefront 2010.
Thanks you & best regards,
Hung Viet

Hi，
First you can create the new network set which is mapped to guest subnet, after that you can create access rule for this network set.
If you want to control bandwidth, you may need 3-party tool like this:http://www.bsplitter.com/

Question about network statement in OSPF and BGP

The network statements in OSPF and BGP can be used to advertise networks. But I'm not clear under what circumstances would make more sense to use network statements to advertise a network than by using other methods to have the network learned by other routers.
Here is an example: assume I'm running BGP on router A. I want to advertise network 10.1.1.0/24 to other BGP peers. I have a OSPF route for this network. I can do 2 things: one is to use "network 10.1.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0", the other is to do "redistribute OSPF ... route-map OSPF-INTO-BGP", and create a prefix list to permit 10.1.1.0/24.
Both would work to have this network learned by other BGP peers. But which is better for what purpose?
Thanks a lot
Gary

Hi Gary,
There is one little difference between the use of the two approaches - the route injected into BGP by using a network statement will carry an Origin attribute of IGP, whereas the route injected using redistribution will have an Origin attribute of Incomplete. Now, that is not a huge issue since you can always change that whatever value you desire both with the use of the network statement and redistribution. The important thing, however, is that in the BGP best path selection process, the Origin attribute comparison is fairly high up and will prefer a route with the attribute of IGP.
Apart from that, there is absolutely no difference between using the network statement and using redistribution with a route-map that matches exactly on the same route that you would have specified with the network statement.
I guess one advantage of using the redistribute approach is that it does not clutter up the BGP config. If you wish to add more routes, you simply add them to the prefix list so that you don't really touch the BGP config portion at all..
Hope that helps - pls do remember to rate posts that help.

Need advice about Mac Pro and Windows networking

I currently have 2 machines at work: One HP Windows PC (high configuration) and a PowerMac G5 2GHz dual. I'm basically close to purchasing a new Mac Pro to replace both machines but need some advice. I do the majority of design work on the Mac. However I need the Windows PC to also do some design work but mainly use it to connect into the windows network at work. Basically I need to be able to access the network drives (which are set up with Novell Netware, with IPX turned off), Novell GroupWise email system and connect to the internet through the LAN. Can I do this with a Mac Pro, with either Bootcamp or Parallels? Is there any sacrifice in terms of performance in using Bootcamp or Parallels? The end result I want is similar to what I am doing at the moment - at the moment I use a PC to network and the Mac to design, side by side with each other. What I want is to do this from one machine, not two. (I also need the PC side of things as I need to use some software that isn't available on the Mac, eg. bespoke databases that run on PC). Is it easy to network under Bootcamp/Parallels? What pitfalls are there that I need to be aware of?

When your running Windows via bootcamp, you are essentially Running windows on a PC architecture. You will have all the same capabilities that you have now.
When you use Parallels to run Windows, you are running Windows as a virtual machine running within the confines of the Mac OS. The advantage is that you can run multiple OS's at the same time, and easily share files and data between them. The disadvantage is that the OS running within Parallels has a slightly performance hit, meaning you are not running as fast as the bootcamp version, but the performance hit is very slight. The only place that Parallels is lacking at the moment is in support of 3D or accelerated graphics. That is Parallels currently cannot make use of a graphics card 3D capabilities or advance GPU options. Parallels has stated their intent is to provide better graphic card support in the near future.
With all this in mind, I don;t see any reason why you cannot use Parallels for your Windows networking needs, and the Mac for your design needs, all at the same time. You will need of course to ensure you have enough RAM to support both OS's if you intend to run them at the same time.
