Broadcasts between multiple routers using IP HELPER

Hello everyone,
I newly CCNA qualified and i need some help-clarification regarding ip helper command.
A few words about the setup of the network:
The place were i work has multiple routers connected to a central router. For example I have router A and Router B. I need a PCs on the LAN segment of router A to be able to broadcast packets to a server (Domain Controller) located on the LAN of router B. I also want broadcasts from the server to travel freely to the LAN of the PC on router A. These two routers are connected with 2Mbps FR.
My configurations work, but i am not sure if i configured unnecessary commands. Can you please give me a sample configuration stating the interfaces were i need to configure IP HELPER-ADDRESS , and if i need the IP DIRECTED-BROADCAST command at all.
Also i have used IP FORWARD-PROTOCOL UDP command.
Thank you very much,
George

George,
OK. You want broadcasts from PCs on LAN A to go to the servers on LAN B. I shall presume that you do not know how many PCs are on LAN B; you just want the broadcast to be seen by all of them. So, suppose the address of LAN B is 192.168.30.0/24, you should go to the interface of LAN A, and configure ip helper-address 192.168.30.255. This will forward brodcasts from LAN A to LAN B. By default, when they arrive at LAN B, the router there would try and send them to a host 192.168.30.255 - but this is not what we want. So on LAN B, you will need the command ip directed-broadcast. This will recognise the packet 192.168.30.255 as a directed broadcast, and it will make sure it gets sent as a MAC broadcast, rather than a host unicast.
In the other direction, just for illustration, I shall assume that you are only interested in passing the PC broadcasts to the specific server in LAN A, let us say 192.168.20.45. In this case, go to the interface of LAN B, and configure ip helper-address 192.168.20.45. This will see the PC broadcasts, and send them to the server on LAN A. In this case, it is not necessary to configure ip directed-broadcast on LAN A, because, it is enough to send the packets to just that server.
Of course, if you want the PC broadcasts to go to all servers in LAN A, you have two options: either you send them to 192.168.20.255 and enable directed broadcasts on LAN A, or you make a list of servers, and have an ip helper-address on LAN B for each one.
As for ip forward-protocol, it may not be necessary. There is a list of protocols that the ip helper-address command forwards by default. You only need the ip forward-protocol command if you want to deviate from the list. See doc for details:

Chat between multiple users using producer/consumer

Hi All,
I'm working on a chat application between multiple users using producer/consumer in flex(pure flex). But i found that this was basically a broadcast service. How do i make sure that i maintain a private chat between any two users using producer/consumer scenario?

hi,below i write a code,bold lines are properties to use.

Excel formula to calculate the distance between multiple points using lat/lon coordinates

I'm currently drawing up a mock database schema with two tables: Booking and Waypoint.
Booking stores the taxi booking information.
Waypoint stores the pickup and drop off points during the journey, along with the lat lon position. Each sequence is a stop in the journey.
How would I calculate the distance between the different stops in each journey (using the lat/lon data) in Excel?
Is there a way to programmatically define this in Excel, i.e. so that a formula can be placed into the mileagecolumn
(Booking table),
lookup the matching sequence (via bookingId)
for that journey in the Waypointtable
and return a result?
Example 1:
A journey with 2 stops:
1 1 1 MK4 4FL, 2, Levens Hall Drive, Westcroft, Milton Keynes 52.002529 -0.797623
2 1 2 MK2 2RD, 55, Westfield Road, Bletchley, Milton Keynes 51.992571 -0.72753
4.1 miles according to Google, entry made in mileage column
in Booking table
where id
= 1
Example 2:
A journey with 3 stops:
6 3 1 MK7 7DT, 2, Spearmint Close, Walnut Tree, Milton Keynes 52.017486 -0.690113
7 3 2 MK18 1JL, H S B C, Market Hill, Buckingham 52.000674 -0.987062
8 3 1 MK17 0FE, 1, Maids Close, Mursley, Milton Keynes 52.040622 -0.759417
27.7 miles according to Google, entry made in mileage column
in Booking table
where id
= 3
I understand that 100% accuracy is not possible, so it will not be an issue.

Sorting between multiple arrays.

I thought that I had posted this yesterday; however as I can not find my post...
I need assistance with part of a project where I need to sort between multiple arrays; using one of the columns as the sort criteria. The arrays contain integers, strings, and doubles; however I would like to sort and display the arrays alphabetically using the string column. I was told that a bubble array may work, however as I can not find specific information on the use of a bubble array, I really don't know where to start. The arrays look like the following:
productArray[0] = new Product(1, "binder ", 15, 1.5, 0, 0);
productArray[1] = new Product(2, "marker ", 13, .5, 0, 0);
productArray[2] = new Product(3, "paper ", 24, .95, 0, 0);
productArray[3] = new Product(4, "pen ", 5, .25, 0, 0); \
Any assistance that anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I am a newbie when it comes to Java and the course materials are extremely vague.

Thank you for your assistance.

Wi-fi bridge between two routers TP-LINK WR841ND (WDS). HP 1536 dnf MFP connect to one of this routers (copper). My Ipad or Iphone can't find HP 1536 dnf MFP (using Eprint). Ipad and iphone connect to router across WiFi.

Hello.
I have wi-fi bridge between two routers TP-LINK WR841ND.
The name of this technology - WDS.
HP Laser JET 1536 dnf MFP connect to one of this routers (copper).
Second device (my NETBOOK) connect to second router (WiFi).
I have good communication between NETBOOK and HP Laser JET 1536 dnf MFP via WiFI-bridge.
In usual case NETBOOK can find (and can Ping) network printer and make a print some files.
But my Ipad or Iphone can't find HP Laser JET 1536 dnf MFP (using Eprint). Ipad and iphone connect
to router across WiFi.
Please, help!

Are you using the ePrint Mobile App, the ePrint Printer Control App, or just trying to send an email to the printer's ePrint email address?
Does AirPrint work?

Use ABAP code in "Decision Between Multiple Alernativesu201D in process chain

Hi, does anybody know if it is possible to include ABAP code in formula definition when using u201CDecision Between Multiple Alernativesu201D in process chain.
I wanted to read a specific parameter from one table in order to choose the next step in the process chain.
If it is not possible, do you any workaround?
Best regards,
João Arvanas

Hey. You could create your own custom formula which you would code. Then that formula is reuseable in the formula builder. That should get you where you need to be.
Here is a document on how to implement the custom formulas:

Help picking between 2 routers

So I'm between two routers. I plan on flashing the router with dd-wrt immediately. Just want some advise please.
Between
Netgear R7000 Nighthawk AC1900 Smart WiFi Router ‑ 4‑Port Switch
And the
ASUS RT‑AC87U Wireless router ‑ 4‑port switch ac2400
The asus one is the newer one with better hardware, but I'm not sure which will work out better for me in the long run.
My current situation: house with three floors, 6 regular users, and roughly 7-10 devices concurrently.
Right now I have a 57 Mbps connection using a net gear router with ddwrt.
One issue I'm currently running into is every so often the wifi only will crash while the wired connection stays live. I've tried trouble shooting for past several months No resolution. I am considering a speed upgrade soon, but not until I can sustain a stable connection with the current setup.
Most common use is gaming and streaming via Netflix, along with general browsing.
What I'm looking for is stable hardware that will keep me future proof for a bit longer, that is why im erring towards the asus since it is the new hardware, but they are also the less tested company in terms of routers.
I'll appearciate any advise.
Currently. Can get asus for $258, and netgear for $171
I am hoping to upgrade to a 500 Mbps connection down the road.

Thank you for your help, re-instating the DHCP did the trick (after a power cycle).
Just in case anyone else needs to do this, here is my final config;
WAG160N is set to 192.168.1.1 with DHCP enabled.
BEFW11S4 is set to 192.168.2.1 with DHCP enabled and auto select IP address.
Thanks for all the suggestions everyone - just need a Wireless N ADSL router (to replace the two I've got hooked up) that can log all internet traffic now

How to use the 'Decision between multiple alternatives' Process variant

Hi ,
Can anyone tell me how to use the 'Decision between multiple alternatives' Process variant in BI 7 Process chains ?
The requuirement is that I have a DSO eg DSO 1 from which i have to load DSO 2 and DSO 3 . Now if the number of Records in DSO 1 are < 100 i will load DSO 2 from DSO 1 else i will load DSO 3 from DSO 1 .
So in the PC i have used a 'ABAP Program' variant (which counts the number of rows in DSO 1) after loading DSO 1 and after this 'ABAP Program' Variant , i have used the 'Decision between multiple alternatives' Process variant. Problem is it is giving me only some some system fields in the formula , like sy-datum or sy-timlo , which are of no use here .
It would be great if i can receive some help here .
--Devraj

in RSPC you create a ABAP processing type "ending with specific values".
We use true or false for things as you specify.
your abap program should return a true or a false to indicate which of the situations is applicable.
Is this helpful?

Specific Questions Multiple Routers *HELP*

I have a few specific questions regarding multiple routers in one home.
1. Would it be possible to have (2) verizon supplied routers such as Actiontecs working in one home over Coax? to be more specific i would like one router in one room of the house connected to coax and providing hardwired/wireless. and another of the same type in a different room doing the same.
an installer told me something to the effect that there would be wireless interference between the two. my next question is if I am able to have two routers connected over coax. could I log in to one and Set Wireless to OFF? thus eliminating wireless interference? if not what would be the issue? could i use a non-verizon supplied router (which i understand there is no support for) ? could i use a Wired router?
there is no wireless coverage issue here. simply personal preference. i need the ability to hardwire systems without running cable around the house ie:cat5 from router to another room.no wireless bridges or other configurations.
these routers are excellent in features and performance and having a second would be nice.
my last resort option would be to connect the router to my GE smartconnection center that i have in my home. coax to router router to cat5e thus braodcast throughout the house depending where i choose. this is my last resort since it is a steel enclosure and would hinder wireless performance.

Check out this website. It has all the different network configurations, along with the pro's and con's of each set up.
http://www.dslreports.com/faq/verizonfios/3.0_Networking
You can also set up the wireless to adhoc mode, which will allow you to connect the second router to the first wirelessly and extend your network without running cable to the other end of the house.

How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

unless i'm missing something, i think you got mixed up, this is easy google for walk throughs
i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups

Can you share photos between machines that use the same wifi network? Thanks for your help.

Can you share photos on i-photo between machines that use the same network or even between different accounts on the same machine? I know you can share music on i-tunes but can you do the same on i-photo? Thanks for your help.

Yes.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
You can figure out using it with another machine from that too
