Disable all optimization on an WAE with inline card

Hi all,
What is the best way to disable all optimization on an WAE with inline card?
I don’t want to power off the device.
Best regards,
Jan Rockstedt

Jan,
The easiest way to bypass WAAS acceleration when deployed inline are to shutdown the inlinegroup interfaces. This will force the inlinegroup into physical bypass.

Duplex problem with inline card "WAN0" again

Hi,
We got duplex problem again "new site" for the inline port WAN0, LAN0 is ok.
We have tried crossover and straight through cable, without any look still 100/ half duplex.
The PTT router int fa0/0 have been to 100/full and auto/auto still 100 half in the WAE.
The WAE have been in 100/full, no link or auto/auto link but 100/half.
What can be the problem, as we have this issue with most of our 574 and 274, the 674 have have no problem at all?
Below are some output from the WAE and router.

Hi Jan,
If you are connecting Router to WAN0_0 port, you should use cross-over cable under most of the circumstances and unless you are using all gig interfaces on both sides. This will avoid any hardware limitations due to non-Auto-MDIX supported hardware.
Cisco strongly recommend that you do not use half-duplex connections on the WAE or on routers, switches, or other devices.
You will find more information here: Cabling
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/wae/module/inline/installation/guide/17880fru.html#wp39911
Further, there is a possibility that the interface on Router / WAE inline adapater / cable might be bad. I would suggest following in that case.
1. Using a new cross-over / stright cable. if the issue continues, proble lies on the interface sides.
2. Using a different port on router. if the issue continues, problem is with WAN0_0 port of WAE.
3. Try connecting wan0_0 port to another switch / router to see if it negotiates at full duplex. If it still continues at half duplex, there is an issue with WAN0_0 port most probably.
4. Try connecting secondary gig port or WAN0_1 port to same router interface. If the issue continues, problem may be with router FA0/0 interface.
If you find that issue is with either router / WAE inline interface, please open a TAC case for RMA.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

LMS 4.2.3 - C6500 VSS - Issue with inline card on secondary chassis

Hello,
We are currently setting up a fresh new LMS 4.2.3 server to administrate a 90 LAN-device-perimiter. Installation is OK (on a Windows Server), devices are up, monitored and their configurations archived.
The core switches are Catalyst 6506 VSS (s2t54-IPSERVICESK9-M - 15.1(1)SY) including 2 inlines cards :
- WS-C6505E-SUP2T
- WS-X6824-SFP-2T
There is an issue with line card WS-X6824-SFP-2T recognition on secondary chassis only. We updated the last software packages for LMS (via Admin > Software Center > Device Update) and situation improved but still, it is not behaving as excepted.
Impact : Topology, Ciscoview and Device Center for C6506-VSS do not show the card and links on the WS-X6824-SFP-2T of secondary chassis.
Do you have this issue as well ? Any direction or help ?
I am afraid of a potential bug...
Rgds,
Yoann

When you were placing the internal test calls, where was your phone located? The RTP streams are usually only set up between the two endpoints (assuming no transcoder or MTP is used).
Have you have already checked calls between IP phones at your central site (where Unity is located) and IP Phones at site A? Are these working fine? If not, then it's likely you do have a QoS issue over the WAN to Site A.
Have you confirmed whether or not calls from the PSTN gateway at site A experience any voice QoS issues when transferred to an IP Phone at the central site?
Is the same codec is being used for the MGCP gateway as for IP Phones at that site (check the Region settings for the Device Pool it's in)?
If these things have all been checked, then you may want to consider collecting a simultaneous sniffer trace from each end of a single call, and comparing what's seen at the two endpoints.
Kind regards,
Craig

Firefox with one tab open takes up 72 Mb. I disabled all of my Add-ons. How do I solve this?

I disabled all of my add-ons and my Firefox theme is the default that comes with the download.
I cleared my Cache every time I start Firefox up, and I set my internet history to automatically become deleted once I close my Firefox.
The problem is that despite all of my add-ons being disabled and my internet history becoming wiped clean once I close the program Firefox, ***With only one tab open*** takes up 48 Mb.
One time I had only ten tabs open and it took up 600,000 k in my processes (585 Mb.)
This is driving me crazy as in I have been trying to figure it out all day.
I used the Google Chrome Web browser but every tab I open up it creates a new Chrome in the processes and each process takes up 48 Mb.
What is going on?
I used Firefox 3.6
and then I tried Firefox 4
both did the same thing. What can I do to fix this?'''bold text'''

Whenever I run Firfox 4.0, my computer fan runs continuously. I have disabled all plug-ins, and I get the same result. This did not happen with Firefox 3.x, and it doesn't happen with IE 8.0. Any ideas?

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Why, after disabling all add-ons to correct a problem with Norton, am I unable to re-install Adobe Acrobat 10.0.0.396, even though all 7 applications in the "Containing Folder" are enabled?

mynortonaccount.com web page began coming up whenever I would go on line. Norton email support gave me steps to follow using my Firefox browser, in the safe mode, to disable all add-ons and reset user preferences to Firefox defaults.
Since then, although trying about 15 times, I have been unable to reinstall Adobe Acrobat 10.0.0.396 so that it functions.
From the "Re-initializing the plugins database" article, and progressing to the "Open Containing Folder," but unable to select File and Exit menu, I did locate "Adobe Acrobat" version 10.0.0.396
which showed all seven applications "enabled." This problem is with Firefox only. Internet Explorer functions normally.

If you want adobe acrobat pdf files to open in firefox you need an acrobat plugin, have you checked that is installed and enabled.

DISABLE" ALL user web/internet addresses/sites in a PDF?

Professionally & Personally - I use, make, and Read many PDF files daily [reports, documents, & books]; I have many "many" thousands of PDF documents in my Archives.
A. Background:
1.    I have heard, since Acrobat 5, many security specialist have deemed JAVA as a THREAT; and PDF as a security concern! Recently Reported Home Land Security has deemed JAVA as an on-going "continuing high threat", in spite of se7u11; reported that DHLS expressed that 28% of reported ATTACKS were from Adobe Acrobat PDF files embedded user malicious software code [ever growing numbers of attacks]. <PDF security is a major growing DOD concern!>
2.    To my great surprise from "IT" professional who disabled JAVA in his Department's systems, the current Security Software and specific program updates offer no real solution or resolutions to this ongoing security problem. I understood that Virus and Trojan Checkers do not check malicious software code hidden inside PDF files, and software updates do not remove or make safe the malicious software code in the actual PDF – thus it remains a potentially very DISTRUCTIVE-DATA-BOMB just setting in your databases awaiting to be activated at some future date.
3.    "This is very tedious and time consuming!" I have since disabled JAVA in my Adobe Acrobat and run each PDF through "PDF OPTIMIZER" - Discarding all User Data, User Objects, and especially User JAVA Codes – and disable my LAN internet connection -- before utilizing it. I don’t know if this is of any good or not – but I feel safer.
B. PROBLEMS & QUESTIONS (I’ve given each question its own string to assist with preventing confusion)!
2.    Using an Adobe Acrobat program function - how can I "REMOVE & DISABLE" ALL [100%] of user noted, embedded, or hidden web/internet addresses/sites in a PDF? What is Adobe's solution?

try67;
I do so appreciate your assistance…
Each of my “QUESTIONS” are specific, direct, and unique – Please Read THEM and answer if you can – if you do not have the technical ability or understanding of my question please do not “scold” me!
Although I have used in business and own computers since the 1970’s [built one myself], I’ve not had to concern myself with programming since, DOS, Lotus/IBM/Apple Basic and COBAL --- especially after XP release I gave up even trying to figure what each does. I did not mean to offend as to which specific JAVA version and/or product is the problem, since I personally have no CLUE – and today totally depend upon goodwill of smart guys like you.
Specifically why recently DHLS [IT security folks and DOD for many years] is saying that Malicious Software code in PDF files is such a big threat and responsible for 28% of the systems attacks I do not know the technicalities or reasoning of these assertions – except it had something to do with JAVA CODE/JavaScript[?] contained inside the actual PDF which virus software doesn’t detect or destroy? I do not know if it is the Additional CODE placed inside the PDF by the bad actor and/or the changing of actual Adobe Program Code is the problem? I may be chasing may tail!
My biggest concern for many years into the future -- is protecting my very large PDA database/Archive, multiple Systems, my personal information, and to try to the best of my ability to not pass PDF having within it Malicious Software CODE [JAVA CODE/JavaScript?] put into it by a bad actor.
Since my PDF database Archives [and back-ups] is many terabytes – it is impossible to “import” each PDF into Acrobat and run PDF Optimizer (removing Adobe known user placed codes and data) – as I am doing now.
This is again my very specific question - Using an Adobe Acrobat program function - how can I "REMOVE & DISABLE" ALL [100%] of user noted, embedded, or hidden web/internet addresses/sites in a PDF?
Thank you so very much for your knowledge, help, and interest.

Disable All Notifications

How can I temporarily disable all notifications on iPhone iOS 7? Is like to do this to conserve the battery or while in a netting and the Do Not Disturb still displays notifications.
Thanks in advance!

Hi santiagofromtampa,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The Do Not Disturb feature doesn't stop notifications, it just silences them. However, if you set your iPhone to Airplane mode, you would not be able to receive any notifications because they require a cellular or Wi-Fi connection. The articles below will explain:

Firefox crashes for 10 seconds when trying to download files, deleting downloads.sqlite, reinstalling firefox, disable all add-ons doesn't solve this problem. Help!

I am having this problem for weeks now.
What I tried:
- Defragmentation
- Reinstall Firefox on a different location
- Change download location
- Start Firefox in safe mode and try download
- Disable all add-ons and plug-ins
- Complete malware/spyware scan
- Complete virus scan
- Delete downloads.sqlite in the profile folder
- Uninstall firefox and delete the entire mozilla folder in Roaming location
- Disabling antivirus
Nothing helps! I'm only having this problem in Firefox. Downloading with Chrome for example doesn't give any problems.
How can I resolve this problem? I'm really desperate.
Thank you in advance!
Yanco

Thanks for your input but I already said that I deleted downloads.sqlite.

I'm deploying FF13 in my organization, how can i disable FF from disabling all plugins/extensions by default?

Our organization requires web services with many plugins. In order to support the latest browsers, we must deploy FF13 company wide. Currently the installation disables all 3rd party plugins by default, requiring you to enable them manually. Therefore, this makes managing a FF13 deployment very difficult. Is there any way to configure it to deploy without it disabling plugins?

Do you really mean plugins (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) or do you mean extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)?
Firefox shouldn't disable plugins unless they are blacklisted, but will display a dialog that shows which (third-party) extensions are found an allow to enable third party extensions.<br />
There is probably no way to avoid such an alert, but you can try to copy extensions to the distribution/extensions folder where also the default theme resides.

How do I disable all non-essential components in the CS6 installer

A new question in the spirit of http://forums.adobe.com/thread/548877 and http://forums.adobe.com/message/2778575, where I asked this question for CS4 and CS5 and eventually discovered how to do this (at least for CS4; CS5 was a mess...): How do I disable all the non-essential components in the Photoshop CS6 installer?
I already found the payloads/Media_db.db sqlite 3 database and wiped the DependencyData table. This goes a long way - unlike CS5, which was a maze of hidden xml configs and sqlite databases, for CS6 just wiping this single table will give the user full control over what the installer will put in the computer. With the dependencies wiped, we can now see all the stuff it's actually going to install:
Bridge (normal and x64) - 187 and 262 MB
CMaps (normal and x64) - 7.2 and 7.2 MB
CSXS Extensions - 1.3MB
CSXS Infrastructure - 6.8MB
Color - photoshop, EU, JA, NA - 1.5, 2.1, 3.0, 2.5MB
Video profiles - 4.7KB
Dynamic Link Media Server - 96MB
DynamicLink Support - 6.1MB
ExtendScript Toolkit - 19MB
Extension Manageer - 16MB
Fonts recommended (normal and x64) - 110 and 110MB (why are there x86 and x64 versions? more of an open question than one that really needs an answer, but this is not how fonts work. There are no separate x86 and x64 flavoured OpenType fonts)
Fonts required (normal and x64) - 123 and 123MB
Hunspell Linguistics Plugin (normal and x64) - 181 and 181MB
Linguistics (normal and x64) - 46 and 46MB
Mini Bridge (normal and x64) - 4.0MB
PDF Library Files (normal and x64) - 75 and 75MB
Photoshop (normal and x64) - 486 and 563MB
Photoshop Support - 9.4MB
Player for Embedding 3.3 (normal and x64) - 21 and 26MB
Switchboard 2.0 - 1.1MB
Type Support (normal and x64) - 6 and 6MB
Winsoft Linguistics Plugin (normal and x64) - 8.2 and 8.5MB
XMP Panels - 4.9MB
ColorCommonSetCMYK - 13MB
ColorCommonSetRGB - 8.6KB
Camera Profiles Installer - 285MB
MSVC++2005 redist. (normal and x64) - 11 and 11MB
MSVC++2008 redist. (normal and x64) - 11 and 11MB
MSVC++2010 redist. (normal and x64) - 11 and 11MB
MSVC80_CRT (normal and x64) - 0.0 and 0.0KB
PDF Settings - 2.4MB
Camera Raw 7 (normal and x64) - 22 and 24MB
Suite Shared Configuration - 3.2MB
Some of these things we really want installed (Photoshop, CMaps, XMP panels, Type Support and required fonts and color profiles are pretty much the minimal set required for a functional Photoshop installation), but some of these things really have no right to be silentedly installed. There's a good gigabyte of nonsense that someone who just wants Photoshop has no need for. Denying them the option to unselect these things during installation is a bit evil (whatever happened to the 'advanced' or 'custom' installation option? That was a good option).
That said, there's still something funky going on - unselecting all components indicates that the installation will required 0.0KB on disk. However, selecting Photoshop CS6 x64, which indicates its size is 563MB, results in an installation that requires 677MB on disk. Similar things happen for other components; CMaps is 7.2MB, but when you select it, it suddenly requires 121MB on disk.
Much last last time, I fully appreciate the install team's choices in making sure the installer will always work as long as people don't tamper with it, but I'm not one of those people - I do tamper with it, because I want to control exactly what lands on my disk. So: how do I find out what these secret things are that are not listed after wiping the dependency data so that I can explicitly pick individual components? Which additional steps are required to reveal the hidden dependencies that will apparently still be installed, or aren't factored into the size indication for the various components? And finally, how do I make the installer NOT determine that "this is not a genuine installer, you may have a counterfeit product" =)
I know it's been altered; I modified it, because I think your install process is trying to force stuff onto my computer that I never asked for, nor will ever use (I know they're quality products, they just have no right to exist on my computers. If I had the choice to say no, I'd acknowledge them as quality products instead).

NB: if Eric Wilde ends up replying to this post: I still remember your willingness to help figure this out for CS5, two years ago. Thank you again for that.

I can see why you wouldn't want to release information that lets people set up arbitrary installers, but that's why I mostly wanted those two specific hashes. The installer team can just generate them without ever saying how, and we will only be able to use them to validate the installer for the modification that lets you pick components. This should in no way interfere with the desire to prevent dangerous installers making it into the wild; in fact, it kind of guarantees that's impossible.
I know you can't guarantee it'll work or test it, and that's fine. Past experience has shown that CS3, CS4 and CS5 work fine with updates (and most updates don't apply to Photoshop, they apply to the additional components that I traditionally don't install), so I'm pretty sure it'll work fine with CS6 too, although of course it could go wrong in which case I can always fall back to a normal install.
Would you be willing to ask the install team whether they could generate just these two numbers, based on the single SQL command run on Media_db.db from the main payload directory? I can fully understand not wanting to give the "here is how you generate the hashes" information, but generating two specific numbers that don't work for anything but this specific query should be just as safe as the various hashes we can already see for the other Media_db.db files in the various payload directories (so they wouldn't reveal anything not already known about how to reverse engineer the hashing algorithm). It'd help tech-savvy customers quite a bit without playing into the hands of criminally minded jerks (I actually had the pleasure of running into a duped CS3 Extended disc several years ago! I had ordered CS3 for personal use, and mysteriously received a CS3 extended version with a volume licensing key in what looked like an official normal CS3 box. Needless to say, authorities and Adobe were notified).
<<I think the right answer to this issue is to simply remove from the products those items that are not required to execute the product. That's actually something we're aggressively pursuing this summer so that the product size reduces in future releases, particularly for PS.>>
It's not possible to take components out of the payloads directory without the installer complaining that errors have occurred. It really wants all those files there when it starts =(
<<Have you investigated using AAMEE? I don't think that will get rid of all the "extraneous" pieces; but, it does provide some flexibility in creating an install package that can then be pushed out through normal deployment tools (e.g. SCCM).>>
I did, but unfortunately AAMEE requires the use of a volume license key, which I don't have. We only have individual products keys for the machines that will get Photoshop CS6.
