Best device to fit for a project

I'm not sure this is the right section but I try.
For a project (less than 100 branch offices and 2 Headquarters connected in an hub&spoke topology with IPSEC over MPLS among branch and HQ) I’m looking for the best device which cover the following items:
Branch:
Single device
At least two Ethernet interfaces (WAN/LAN)
Ipsec supporting 10-50-100 Mbs
Routing protocols such as BGP-OSPF
NAT
Redundant power supply (some site not but in principle I need it)
HeadQuarter:
Single device with XE intf
At least two Ethernet interfaces (WAN/LAN)
IPSEC supporting up to 7-10 Gbs of IPSEC (the sum of branches)
Routing protocols such as BGP-OSPF
NAT
Redundant power supply
Firewall is not needed, MPLS will be runned by two carrier (this is why single device, there will be two single devices (with hsrp/vrrp) per site each one connected to one MPLS carrier), IPSECs tunnels are on-top of MPLS.
I’m looking for the best solution in terms of scalability and price (very important).
I've an idea in my mind but I'd like to share your experience for the decision...
Regards

Hello.
I guess for MPLS you would use GETVPN, so ASA couldn't be an option.
For 10M, I would suggest Cisco 892 or 1921.
Up to 50M - 1941 could be fine (for asymmetrical flow), and 2921 for symmetrical;
Up to 100M - 2921/2951(for asymmetrical) and 3925 for symmetrical.
Not sure what to sugegst for HQ, but it should be anything like ASR1000-ESP20 (sure you need 2 devices for HA).
PS: why do you need NAT on MPLS?
PS2: in HQ I would suggest to split IPSec and NAT roles between different devices (ASA would be best for NAT).

Can CF8 be fit for my project?

Hello everyone,
I am getting started to learn ColdFusion8(CF8). I can't
decide whether CF8 is appropriate for my project, so I am eager to
hear your advice.
Firstly, I'd like to give a brief introduction to the
project. It is a video blog website and every registered user can
deliver his flash video and a story to the server. It must support
3,000 people to visit the site at the same time.
Secondly, my approach for designing this site is to make the
application server creating static HTML pages according to a
predefined template when registered users' contents(flash videos
and stories) come to the server. The name of a static HTML file is
formed by the user's name and generating date which can ensure that
the name differ from each other. What write to the database are
these names of files and users' information, rather than the
contents themselves, which will save the time when users upload the
contents and when visitors request the pages because during those
processes, no additional database writing and reading associated
with the contents are needed and the main purpose of the database
is to locate the specific page requested by visitors. The static
HTML file contains flash video that makes the size of the file
large and a lot of people might access this website simultaneously,
so I want the application server to compress the page for
transmitting it to the visitors when they request a certain page.
Thirdly, based on these information above, I hope CF8 can
1) easily generate static HTML files.
2) allow high concurrent visiting in the Internet
environment.
3) compress HTML pages to visitors.
Can CF8 do all the work?
I also have some basic questions about CF8,
1. Is Dreamweaver8 the common editor for CF8?
2. Does CF8 contain JRun?
3. Is the application written by CF8 easy to deploy in JRun?
I mean if I have to thoroughly master JRun to do this?
Thank you in advance!

... I hope CF8 can

Yes
Is Dreamweaver8 the common editor for CF8?
It is a good CF editor. However, it busies itself with many
things besides editing. Other commonly used editors are Homesite
and CFEclipse. I would strongly recommend CFEclipse.
Does CF8 contain JRun?
Yes.
Is the application written by CF8 easy to deploy in JRun?
Yes. That happens automatically behind the scenes. You don't
have to intervene.
I mean if I have to thoroughly master JRun to do this?
No. You need no knowledge of Jrun to use CF8.

Best practices code structure for large projects?

Hi, I come from the Java world where organizing your code is handled conveniently through packages. Is there an equivalent in XCode/Objective C? I'd rather not lump all my observers, entities, controllers, etc in one place under "Classes"...or maybe it doesn't matter...
If anyone could point me to a document outlining recommended guidelines I'd appreciate it.
Thanks! Jon

If you have a small project, you can setup Groups in Xcode to logically organize your files. Those Groups do not necessarily have to correspond to any directory structure. I have all my source files in one directory but organize them into Groups in Xcode.
If you have a larger project, you can do the same thing, but with code organized into actual directories. Groups can be defined to be relative to a particular directory.
If really do have a large project, you should organize things the same was as in Java. Your "packages" would just be libraries - either static or dynamic.
As far as official guidelines go, there really aren't any. It would be best to stick to the Cocoa Model-View-Controller architecture if that is the type of application you are working on. For other software, you can do it however you want, including following something like Sun's guidelines if you want.

What is the best way to share for large projection?

I would like embed my movie as part of the Powerpoint to be shown on a Windows machine (my only option). What is the best way to share it so that it doesn't look grainy or pixelated?

Fool proof? Does Mircosoft make Powerpoint?
LOL... but seriously
You could export it out to a Windows Media file.

Is Captivate right for this project?

I am quite familiar with PS, AI, DW, etc., but learned about Captivate today while doing research on presentation authoring software for an upcoming project at work.
I am hoping someone here can tell me whether or not Captivate is a good fit for the project.
We are re-doing a training program. It is a very simple software training program. It is a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. It has an auto-start/run feature so that it starts up and opens to the main menu upon insertion into a computer. There is a dvd-like menu so that the student can skip around to different sections on the disc. Once a selection is made, a QuickTime video (we don't insist on using QuickTime, in fact some of our students have trouble installing it on their cpu's) plays. The video is surrounded by a frame that includes playback controls (fast-forward, rewind, pause, etc), the company logo, the currenly playing section number and disc, and Menu, Previous, and Next buttons. The videos in the past have been nothing but screen captures with voice overs, but we would like to incorporate PowerPoint-ish slides into the videos if it can be done without having to pay someone to edit the video, as that's not in the budget for this product.
The contractor that did the last one for us is a great trainer, but produced a lower-quality product than we like. I suspect he used a free or very cheap program.
Your thoughts? Does this seems like a project for Captivate?
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
It sounds like this can be achieved in Captivate. Can I ask which version of Captivate you are using?
Captivate allows you to insert FLV videos (or AVI) so you could definetly do the video part without too much trouble. The menu can also be developed in Captivate and it's also possible to publish the entire project to a CD/DVD.
You wouldn't be able to add Powerpoint slides into the videos by using Captivate so you would need to find some form of videoediting program instead.

Best practice for responsive projects

Does anyone have tips on best practices for responsive project?
I understand that 3 different layouts can be created. What happens if a learner is not using one of the 3 devices that were set up in a responsive project, and their screen size is different from any of those

Jay,
Dr. Pooja Jaisingh offered very valuable tips for good practice in responsive design last week in her webinar. 'Do's and Don'ts of creating Responsive Projects with Captivate 8'. I don't see the recording yet On Demand, but keep an eye on it.
Did you test a responsive project with F11 (Preview in Browser)? You will be able to change the resolution of the browser window and see that the content, if well designed (you can have absolute positioning, size as well) will move, shrink to adapt. The break points (3 devices) allow you to make more invasive changes at those points: dragging some objects out of the stage in the scratch area because they take up too much space for phones is one example. Or replacing a big screenshot with many details by a zoomed in detail screenshot for the mobile breakpoint. That is my way of explaining, responsive is not just have the three layouts for devices, it is also adapting between those breakpoints.

Best way to collect all video and picture files for a project

after effects has this great feature where you choose COLLECT and basically what it does is collects all your media files and puts them in a folder. What the best way to do this in FCP?

ThatChineesYouth wrote:
As a disclaimer; I used FCP's 'Media Manager' To duplicate my original project, to remove the excess unused clips and to preserve the right to keep specific audio files within the confines of the company. The file structure of the project, PROJECTNAME, may or has been altered as a result. Sequences might have blank spaces as a result of time remapped clips being incorrectly duplicated and media names and bin structure may be altered as 'Media Manager' caters not for the organization of the original project. These might or might not be corrected depending on how i feel at the moment of reviewing this 'duplicated' project.
I make special exceptions for clients that do their best to stay on my good side. This disclaimer was made specifically for a project that I had to redo when the original editor was too lazy to make it "watchable". They said I only had to make some changes.... almost 2 months later, I technically did the project over from scratch.

Is an iPhone app the best choice for our project?

Dear All,
We are developing a travel tour idea for different locations within the US. Tour content can include video, audio, images and text, as well as maps and locations. We want to make our tours "in-depth" so that people can spend good quality time traveling a short distance and exploring "in-depth" rather than travelling long distances and giving only casual interest to what they see.
I'm new to developing apps for the iPhone and am using Dreamweaver CS5.5 soon to be updated to CS6.
I'm wondering if an app for iPhone and other related media like Android is really the way to go because of the limited content and screen size available. I can envision our tours being utilized in many other formats, including iPad, Interactive PDF, as travel e-books or through an interactive website. Our goal is to sell our apps, not give our material away for free. PDF would be my preferred format, but I know that PDF is easily transferred for free among users and would probably not give us much profit.
Any thoughts out there on what the best format for our project might be, or should it include ALL of the above formats? App creation for the iPhone is a rather complicated process, so that's why I'm wondering if after all of the work that you have to put in to create an iPhone app, if that is ultimately my best choice.
I would appreciate any thoughts or advice, or any questions you might have. I'm working on a Mac Pro with CS5.5 Master Collection soon to be updated to CS6

hi,
It depends on your requirement. Base on my experience, VM or website all could meet your requirement. From your description, You could use azure website to host your php website (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-php-configure/).
And you could use website auto scale feature in the future. I suggest you could see their comparison (http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/choose-web-site-cloud-service-vm/

Best device for external monitoring? Sure to be a popular topic.

Any thoughts on the best device? I am a one person shop and am very pleased with the update. I like X and have been using FCP since version 1. I had a Kona 3 and was very pleased with the product so I will most likely purchase the new io XT. Customer support was great. And the party AJA threw at NAB wasn't bad either. Now that I cut on a an iMac, I have been waiting for this update. I see that Blackmagic has a device at a much lower price point. Are you getting what you pay for? What product has the best features?
I would really appreciate any thoughts.
Cheers.
Tom

Hi,
it is not necessary to enter the exact amount for external service in PM order ,
exact amount must be confirmed during service entry sheet ml81n
or it also be adjusted during miro ( invoicing )
and for prininting , most of the part as u said are covered in standard printing of Maintenance order, PR and PO
otherwise there must be customized PO printing in ur organisation that can be change if ur requirements does not meet

Technical documentation for ADF projects - how to and best practices

Hi,
I have a question how to create technical documentation for ADF project expecialy ADF BC and ADF Faces. Is there any tool or JDev plugin for that purpose? What informations should contains documentation for that project, any principles ?Has anybody any experienece. Are there something like documentation best practices for ADF projects? E.g. how to create documentation for bussiness components.
Kuba

I'm not sure there is "best practices" but some of the things that can help people understand are:
An ADF BC diagram - this will describe all your ADF BC objects - just drag your components into a new empty diagram
A JSF page flow - to show how pages are called.
Java class diagram - for Java code that is not in the above two
One more thing to consider - since ADF BC, JSF page flow and JSPX pages are all XML based - you could write XSL files that will actually transform them into any type of documentation you want.

Setting Disks/Caches/Vault for multiple projects - Best Practices

Please confirm a couple assumptions for me:
1. Because Scratch Disk, Cache and Autosave preferences are all contained in System Settings, I cannot choose different settings for different projects at the same time (i.e. I have to change the settings upon launch of a new project, if I desire a change).
2. It is good practice to set the Video/Render Disks to an external drive, and keep the Cache and Autosave Vault set to the primary drive (e.g. user:Documents:FCP Documents). It is also best practice to save the Project File to your primary drive.
And a question: I see that the Autosave Vault distinguishes between projects, and the Waveform Cache Files distinguishes between clips. But what happens in the Thumbnail Cache Files folder when you have more than one project targeting that folder? Does it lump it into the same file? Overwrite it? Is that something about which I should be concerned?
Thanks!

I don't. And I don't think it matters. But you should back that file up to some other drive (like Time Machine).

FieldPoint devices and LabVIEW program for educational project

I use LabVIEW 7.1 and NI FieldPoint devices (FP-1000) for educational
purposes. I want to control a automation unit which has got 6 digital
input(DI) and 5 digital output(DO). I used the sequence structure, but
actually I am not sure the solution whether true or not.
Working principle of my system:
If "Channel 1" DI is ON, DO Channel 10 must be "ON"(turn table motor
Start)
If Channel 2 DI is ON, DO Channel 10 must be "OFF"(turn table motor
Stop) and DO Channel 11 must be "ON" (drill motor Start) and after a
delay time DO Channel 12 will ON (drill motor down)
If Channel 3 DI is ON, DO Channel 12 will OFF, a bit of delay time DO
Channel 13 ON ( drill motor up)
If Channel 4 DI is ON, DO Channel 13 and Channel 11 will be OFF (drill
motor stop) and then DO Channel 10 must be activated.(turn table again
Start)
If Channel 2 is ON again DO Channel 10 will OFF and check cyclindir
control Channel 14 will ON, after a delay Channel 14 will OFF
If Channel 5 DI is ON, DO Channel 10 will ON again while DI Channel 2
is ON.
How can I project the system with LabVIEW 7.1?
Thanks, stn

This is a pneumatic technical experiment set. Your suggestions okey
but I have already studied these subjects.I have tested a solution for
the system using the sequence structues in the LabVIEW. But if you
sent to me an example vi, I will understand the solution way.Thanks.
Working principle of my system as a summary:
Step 1: When DI 1 is ON, DO 1 must be "ON"(turn table motor
Start) while DI 2 is ON. In this case DO 2 must be "ON" (drill motor
Start) and after a bit
time delay DO 3 will ON (drill motor down),
Step 2 : when DI 3 is ON,(drill bottom level), DO 3 will OFF, after
that DO 4 will ON ( drill motor upper position) in this case DI 4 is
ON, after that DO 1 again ON while DI 2 is ON (like step 1)

What is the best compressor setting to use ... when exporting a 720p timeline from FCP for a project that will only be played back in a standard def monitor?

What is the best compressor setting to use for DVD StudioPro ... when exporting a 720p 30 timeline from FCP for a project that will only be viewed in a standard def monitor?

Update: The iBook can play any 480p video and higher if I encode them with DivX and in AVI format. But of course this is not compatible with my iPhone 4. At least I can shrink my library now and get away from the full MPEG-2s. I don't get why I can't use Apple's h264 though. There has to be a setting I am missing. The sample Apple h264 videos from the days of Tiger worked flawlessly on my iBook when it was new so the CPU must be capable of decoding it. I really can't understand this.
Also, since I made my videos in English for my family, I had to create soft subtitles for my wife's Chinese family, and I can't get players like QT with perian or MPlayerX to sync them properly to an AVI encoded with DivX, they only sync well with the iPhone 4 m4v/mp4 formatted files I made. This is a real pickle.
So now I may need three or four copies of each video, LOL. I need to hardcode the subtitles if I want to use AVI to playback on older machines, and keep the mp4 file for the iDevices too, while keeping higher quality h264 videos for my American relatives...
If h264 is compatible with my iBook, what is the proper encoding settings? Must I dramatically lower the settings or frame rate? I can settle on 2 copies of each video that way. One iBook/G4/eMac compatible video that syncs correctly with my srt soft subs, and another version that works well with my iPhone 4 and iPad.
All in all, I will end up with more than 3 or 4 version of each video. On my late G5 dual core I have the full 720-1080p uncompressed master files. On my i5 iMac I have the h264 compressed versions for distribution, and lower versions for my iDevices. Now I need to keep either full MPEG-2 files for the iBook to play, or convert to older formats like DivX AVI for our family's legacy machines. I am running out of hard disk space quick now, LOL.
Is there an easier way?

Best settings for DVD project

I have done all of my work so far for online projects so I didn't realise that dvd always has dimensions of 720x576, and that it is only blueray which plays in full HD, until I started building a DVD project in Encore.
I would like some advice to produce the best possible results on a dvd format;
I presume that this means I must build all my menus in photoshop to 720x576 dimensions?
But what about the video itself? It was filmed in 1920x1080, and was created on a 1920x1080 timeline in Premiere Pro, can I simply export it at as an SD file?
What I'm asking really is how should I export my project from Premiere, and build it in Encore for best possible results for DVD format?
Thanks in advance

If you want the best conversion this method is regarded as one of the best,
Bellune Digital Video Services - Tutorials - hd2sd - High Quality Scaling From HD to SD
I'm sure there are topics about this in this forum but I couldn't search and find them.
If your HD material has a lot of fine detail that might strobe try adding a Gaussian blur to your HD export, I find a setting of 3 to 4 vertical helps.
