ATM Back bone.Cisco VS Nortel which is better

I have a situation whr i need to connect 7 different sites together with ATM. I have STM 4 as back bone and some place PDH E3 and E1, I am looking at cisco product with following configuration.
1). 4 XSTM 1
2). 5 XE3
3). 8 XE1 Data
4)9 XE1 Voice.
5 8 X1000Mbps.
The switch should support 2000 PVC, SVC s
Minimum of 100 Point to Multipoint connections.
I have Nortel 6480 Paasport. But i am looking for cisco products. What do ya suggest from you experince. n what is equvalent of nortel 6480 in cisco.

The reason I asked about buffer size is because I was having a problem with gapless playback. In iTunes I had my tracks all set up for gapless playback and they would play just fine there (seamlessly), but on my iPod I would sometimes get little mini-pauses between tracks when tranistioning from one to the next but others would trnasition just fine --- and on top of that I didn't always get the same result between the same two tracks ! In addition, I would also occaionally get longer pauses in the middle of a track. This would hapeen with both Lossless and WAV formats, and oddly enought it seemd to be more frequent with the Lossless format. I talk with Apple Tech Support about it and asked them if it could be either the cache size or how the cache is being managed internally, and they said no the cache size and how it's managed should be able to account for the extremes of many little tracks being queued up in it vs. only part of one large track being able to fit. Bottom line, they said you should be able to experience gapless playback no matter what the size of your individual tracks are, and the cache should be able to properly manage things. So they seemed to think it was the hard drive itself failing and recommended just swapping out for a new unit since it was in warranty.
I haven't re-loaded my iPod yet since getting the replacement because I was wanting to first find out about the differences between the file formats that I initially asked you all about. I'll let you all know if I experience any more problems with gapless playback on the new unit.

  • Intergrating HP blade servers into a Cat 6000 back bone

    Ok, im relatively new to this, so please bear with me.
    We have a new hp blade server with 2 Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module's. Currently one switch serves 4 of the servers in the blade and one switch serves the other 4.
    We would like both switches to load share and thus have redundancy if one was to fail.
    Our current backbone is between 2 6000 Cats with 3 fibre connections, so a 3 gig ether channel between the two.
    Everything is routed via this link and spanning tree stops any loops throughout the rest of the network, due to the 6000 route being by far the fastest and largest route. (3 gig and direct opposed to 1 gig and via at least 2 hops on all other connections/loops)
    Now the concerns are, if we connect these blades, with there impressive backplane speeds (must admit I have yet to determine these backplane speeds but I no there quick)in the redundant load sharing way they are intended to work, will spanning tree opt to use the blade server as the back bone of the network...
    Also another observations of mine is the blades use IOS and the cat's use KTOS... will there be any problems there?
    Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to ask any questions and I will go away and find out the answers.
    Many thanks.
    Michael.

    Hi Michael,
    Well, This is fairly simple to implement. I dont know why those guys need 4 days to impelemt. Are they going to manufacture a new switch in 4 days :-)....
    I guess you can go ahead wit this implementaion on your own and connect the switches directly to the 6500 as you want. The only suggestion is to go for etherchannel between the chassis. Follow the steps:
    1. Check the root bridge on your n/w and also the priority set. If you ahev root bridge and secondry root bridge in your n/w with priorities 8192 and 16384, you are absolutely good to go.
    2. If priorities are default, I would suggest to set the STP priority on your HP blade to be a little high than default 32768 to overcome the STP root bridge issue. use command
    config t
    spanning-tree vlan priority < value >
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat6000/12_1e/swconfig/spantree.htm
    3. Set up the etherchannel between the chassis, if using multiple link to connect.
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat6000/12_1e/swconfig/channel.htm
    You should be all set to go.

  • Back bone design- help needed.

    There are total 6 sites connected together with fiber optic cable(They are all over the country distance may be between 500 to 1200 KM), i dont know the capacity of them,
    My job is to provide connectivity to all the sites with their specific requirements, their requirements are as follows,
    at each site they want 4 oc3(155 mbps), 4 E3s, (34Mbps), 8 E1 s,(2 Mbps)- 6 E1 s Voice.( all these are interfaces/capacity should be available at these switches.
    This is their requirement of them, now i have to provide them the suitable switches or routers, plz proivde me the suitable solution for this, i am not confident about providing an equipment with the said capacity, it can be cisco 7209, or cisco 6506 switch, or cisco mgx 8200
    i want specs of any cisco device which meets the requirement.(If any body can give me clue like which cisco box to choose from, i can carry along with it.)
    I iwll be implementing mpls on the core device.
    plz advice.

    Hello,
    My understanding is that Cisco are encouraging people to use the 8540MSR for ATM.

    Originally Juniper only had layer 3 routers, but with their purchase of Unisphere it is possible they have an ATM switch.

  • My iphone 3gs is not activating after updating my software with i tunes...what shall i do? cant i go back to my normal version which was ios 4.1

    my iphone 3gs which is not associated with this accunt is not activating after updating the sof tware, it connects to i tunes but i tunes says "we arh your unable to continue with your activation at this time, please try again later or contact customer care". my iphone aslo just says it cannot be activated or something like that every time i try. i have been waiting for 4 hours now but it still hasnt worked. how can i uninstal this update and go back to my old version which ws ios 4.1 or or ios 4,3. i dont even know what version it updated to, im assuming it is ios5 but not sure. it says try connecting to i tunes as well but it is connected and i tunes cant activate it either. my phone is connect to a wifi but it stll says no service.
    i will really appreciate some help.
    thanks.

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

    My daughter's iPad is backing up to my iCloud, which is how we set it up originally. Now she has her own iPhone with her own iCloud. How can I get her iPad to back up to her own iCloud?  Her iPad is taking up 3.4MB of my 5MB. I need my space back!

    Yes, that's correct, it won't affect your account or your devices in any way.
    Use the delete account button in the iCloud settings.
    Then enter her iCloud details in the new screen that appears and log in. She should then be returned to the screen above but with her Apple ID at the top, enable the services she wishes to use and then tap the storage & backup option and ensure that iCloud backup is turned on.

  • Is there a way to trace back an indesign document from which a certain jpeg was exported?

    I have a jpeg image that was exported from indesign a long time ago.

    Depending on how the text interacts visually with the image, it might be possible to use the fill property of the content-aware deletion feature of recent Photoshop versions to remove the text with little or no evidence of the deletion, then apply text over the graphic however you like.

  • My iphone is synced and backed up with another computer which is now broken... and i have synced it with a new one but when i want to do anything itunes says all data will be erased and replaced with the current itunes library?what do i do?

    my iphone is synced and backed up with another computer which is now broken...i have synced it with my new computer  but it hasnt transfered anything over to itunes and when i try to add anything to my iphone it says all data will be erased and replaced with the current itunes? i dont want to lose all my apps and music.... i dont know how to go around this problem? i want to back it all up and sync it properly to my new computer so that is now my main computer , so i can add ring tones and music etc with out it erasing everything ive got. any answers would be great and muchly appreciated. thanks, im not sure what operating system my iphone has either.....

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
    Use your backup copy of your computer to put everything on the new one.
    It sounds like you have failed to do this, which is not good at all.
    You will have to transfer your itunes purchases from your iphone.  Authorize your computer for your itunes account 
    About iTunes Store authorization and deauthorization
    Open itunes, plug in iphone, do NOT sync, click File>Transfer Purchases
    When you do sync you will lose your pics ( photo library - synced from your old computer), your itunes content ( music, apps, videos,etc) , your contacts and your calendars.  So do NOT sync yet.  This is why a backup copy is so important.
    Enter one unique contact and calendar entry on your computer.
    When you first sync, you should get the option to merger the data.  Choose it.
    If you want your pics, then you will need to e-mail them to yourself before you sync.  They will not be of the original quality as they are reduced when synced to iphone.
    When all is as goos as it can be, then backup your computer, and always maintain the backup.

  • Which is better,the Apple TimeCapsule or the WD MyCloud for backing up pixs and datas?

    I am not too sure which is better for backing up my pixs that i have saved and dont want to lose them,am thinking which would be best for me to purchase?the apple timecapsule or the wd mycloud,i heard great things about both but not sure from someone who got experience,so could u help me out and tell me which is better and why?
    thanks in advance...

    Backup is backup. Doesn't matter how you do it, but that you do it.
    Given the choice you posited I would choose the Time Capsule if you want to use Time Machine. If you wish to use third-party backup software then you can only use the WD. It comes with its own proprietary backup software. Or you can go another direction and avoid cloud/network backup which is very slow.
    Basic Backup
    For some people Time Machine will be more than adequate. Time Machine is part of OS X. There are two components:
    1. A Time Machine preferences panel as part of System Preferences;
    2. A Time Machine application located in the Applications folder. It is
         used to manage backups and to restore backups. Time Machine
         requires a backup drive that is at least twice the capacity of the
         drive being backed up.
    3. Time Machine requires a backup drive that is at least double the
         capacity of the drive(s) it backs up.
    Alternatively, get an external drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
      1. Carbon Copy Cloner
      2. Get Backup
      3. Deja Vu
      4. SuperDuper!
      5. Synk Pro
      6. Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore.  Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files. For help with using Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ for help with all things Time Machine.
    Although you can buy a complete external drive system, you can also put one together if you are so inclined.  It's relatively easy and only requires a Phillips head screwdriver (typically.)  You can purchase hard drives separately.  This gives you an opportunity to shop for the best prices on a hard drive of your choice.  Reliable brands include Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Toshiba, and Fujitsu.  You can find reviews and benchmarks on many drives at Storage Review.
    Enclosures for FireWire and USB are readily available.  You can find only FireWire enclosures, only USB enclosures, and enclosures that feature multiple ports.  I would stress getting enclosures that use the Oxford chipsets especially for Firewire drives (911, 921, 922, for example.)  You can find enclosures at places such as;
      1. Cool Drives
      2. OWC
      3. WiebeTech
      4. Firewire Direct
      5. California Drives
      6. NewEgg
    All you need do is remove a case cover, mount the hard drive in the enclosure and connect the cables, then re-attach the case cover.  Usually the only tool required is a small or medium Phillips screwdriver.

  • Cisco ACS & Nortel Equipment

    Hi,
    I have a client who has a mostly Nortel network who requires a RADIUS and TACACS+ authentication system to work with Nortel and Cisco equipment to authenticate administrative logins.
    Does any one know please if an ACS appliance or the Windows verison 4.2 will be able to provide RADIUS/TACACS+ to both Cisco and Nortel equipment without any major configuration work?
    Thanks very much for your help.
    Darrel

    On ACS server, we have Radius[Nortel] Attributes.
    You have to configure the " Nortel switches " as AAA client on ACS server. The configuration on switch config should be :
    On ACS server > Network Config > under AAA client :
    - AAA client name = Switch
    - AAA client IP address = IP address of switch
    - Shared secret key = secret key on switch
    - Authentication Protocol = Radius[Nortel]
    Then you need to enable nortel attributes
    ACS--->Interface configuration--->Nortel. Enable attributes you need.
    Now in group you need to check these attributes
