Does UNI port drop tunneled L2 PDUs with dst MAC 01-00-0c-cd-cd-d0 ?

Hi,
Im trying to understand the correct behaviour for the UNI port and l2 tunelling on the ME3400E switch running as a layer2 device. No layer3/mpls on it.  
In the setup like below, ME3400E#1 UNI facing port G0/4 has 'dot1q and l2-protocol tunnel' enabled and therefore it changes the MAC address of L2 PDUs it receives from the C2900 to 01-00-0c-cd-cd-d0    It then forwards the packets to ME3400#2.  This in order to deliver STP and other L2 PDUs to another C2900 on the other end of the network.
C2900------(802.1q trunk)------[UNI G0/4] ME3400E#1 [NNI]------[UNI G0/1] ME3400E#2
ME3400E#1
interface GigabitEthernet0/4
switchport access vlan 35
switchport mode dot1q-tunnel
switchport port-security maximum 1000
switchport port-security
switchport port-security aging time 8
switchport port-security violation shutdown vlan
storm-control broadcast level bps 1m 800k
storm-control action shutdown
l2protocol-tunnel cdp
l2protocol-tunnel lldp
l2protocol-tunnel stp
l2protocol-tunnel vtp
ME3400E#2
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,35
switchport mode trunk
switchport port-security maximum 1000
switchport port-security
switchport port-security aging time 8
switchport port-security violation shutdown vlan
storm-control broadcast level bps 1m 800k
storm-control action shutdown
The question is: should the UNI port of ME3400E#2 receiving traffic from ME3400E#1 drop or allow L2 PDUs with DST MAC 01-00-0c-cd-cd-d0 ?
Im aware a UNI port will always drop L2 packets, but does it also drop L2 PDUs with the Cisco proprietary MAC 01-00-0c-cd-cd-d0 ?
Tests I have done dont seem to be clear on this point. If we continue the network above by adding another C2900 at the other end in order for QinQ to provide L2 connectivity between both 2900s, traffic flows ok from one 2900 to the other but not STP, CDP, VTP.  L2 PDUs will flow and STP will work only when I change the ME3400E#2 UNI port to NNI.
To make it confusing I have aother setup where ME3400E#2 UNI port as shown above is allowing L2 tunelled PDUs and layer2 connectivity including STP, CDP, VTP actually works between two C2900s.
So I would like to understand which version is the correct behaviour and move from there as currently it is very confusing
thanks

You are not alone with issues related to the e1000e (but all they concluded was that reloading the module makes it work again):
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=145564
It seems like this is more your issue:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux. … devel/8932
But if none of those boot flags work for you, then there's not much you can do, and you'll have to write a script to reload the module each time after initial boot finishes I guess until the module gets fixed.
Also, power management of the PCIe interface causes the e1000e to shut off after a while as well (lots of people on CentOS noticing this):
http://serverfault.com/questions/226319 … ie-aspm-do
So you can use that boot parameter to stop that from happening, if that becomes an issue for you as well.

    The only one that will work with OSX is the one you order with the Mac Pro from Apple. The others don't have the correct firmware for OSX.
    I've also noticed that the online store lets have an option for the QuadroFX 5800 to purchase with a Mac Pro
    No, it's the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600. That is the only way to get it. NVIDIA does not sell it directly.

  • ITunes does not sync all music on 4s with new MAC

    My daughter has an iPhone 4s that was sync-ed with her Windows PC. She recently got a new Macbook Pro. We added all her music to the new MAC and then tried to sync via "sync all checked songs" and iTunes is missing many songs. We then tried to sync by selecting artists and such and let it wipe all music. Once it was wiped we tried to sync fresh again and it still missed many songs. It sync partial albums. She is able to drag and drop manually to correct the missed songs, but would prefer to fix this so she can sync normally in the future. What can we do to get this fixed? I really dont want to do a restore and start from scratch...
    Thanks

    I´ve tried every possible solution listed, those that have worked for others...nothing has worked. My library has about 2777 songs of which at first only 1370 loaded. After syncing w/o music, which deleted all music from my iPhone, I then selected Sync Music again and synced...well this time only 391 songs were added!!! It skipped the other 1400 I already had in! I´ve come to notice that these 391 songs are the ones purchased directly on the iTunes Store, but previously I had ALL my CD´s ripped and loaded to my iPhone.
    I don´t know if this has something to do with the new iTunes version, but please, please, someone give me some light! I don´t want to go and convert all 2400 songs from MP3 to AAC..!! It´s not practical!
    Thanks in advance for your comments.

    How does time machine work when backing up a mac pro?
    Considering the fact that the mac pro can hold 8TB and a external (non NAS) hard drive can hold only 2TB does time machine only backup the OS disk.

    Time Machine will backup everything by default, on every disk in your Mac.
    Choose System Preferences > Options to exclude items. You could exclude everything except your OS...but I'd think it is your data that's more important to you, if you have to make choices.
    See...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1964018
    While it's true you can store almost 8TB, how much do you think you'll actually store? If you have 1TB of data you want to store then a 2TB drive can do it. Also when your TM drive begins to get full it will begin deleting the oldest backups to make room.
    You could also get a Drobo with 8 bays...

  • HOW DOES THE NEW MBOX 2 MINI WORK WITH THE MAC MINI?

    I have a old original Mac mini 1.25GHz with 1 GB SDRAM - 40GB Ultra ATA drive, 4x SuperDrive (DVD±RW/CD-RW) OS 10.3
    I also have just added the new MAC MINI 1.66 CTO OS 10.4
    with the following configuration:
    * Processor 065-6673 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo
    * Memory 065-6676 1GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM-2x512
    * Hard Drive 065-6750 120GB Serial ATA drive
    * Optical Drive 065-6679 Combo Drive
    In addition, I have a MicroNet 150 GB external hard drive.
    The 3 are linked together so that the icons for the MircroNet and the old Mac mini are shown on the New Mac mini desktop.
    I’ve kept the New MM as is for apps, moved most of the files and folders to the MNet, and have done a reinstall on the old MM, getting rid of almost everthing that was on it originally except the OSX and apps.
    I’m thinking about using the old MM to set up a recording studio. This would involve the new MBox 2 Mini with ProTools LE. For details, just Google it. It comes 2 ways, configured for the G4 MM or for the new Intel MM. I’d rather not clutter up the new MM with this, as sometimes the Digidesign Pro Tools apps can be a bit toxic.
    If I get the MBox 2 Mini and run it on the old MM, will this work? Has anyone tried this? Do I have enough processing power and speed, ram and hard drive space?
    Thanks!

    MAC MINI 1.66 Intel Core Duo, Mac mini 1.25GHz MicroNet 150 GB external hard drive.   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hi Larry,
    I just purchased a Mbox 2 Mini. I am running it flawlessly with my Core Duo 1.66Ghz Mac mini w/2GB RAM.
    I have not seen the two versions for Intel and PPC Macs as you described. Digidesign only produces one box...compatible with Mac or PC.
    The Digidesign site states that the Mbox 2 Mini is compatible with your 1.25GHz mini, but Pro Tools LE 7.3.x requires Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.x, not Panther 10.3.x.
    You would get far better perfomance using the Intel mini over the PPC. And, you would get better perfomance by maxing the RAM out as well.

  • Does anybody remember the demos that came with the Mac OS 7, '95-'96ish? I remember spin doctor, amazon trail, dino tycoon and others being on it.  Does anybody remember some colored balls which you could move around on a black background with music?

    This music also sometimes sounded erotic (weird, I know).  You could attach multiple balls together and they moved like a worm.  I also remember, on this same demo a weird, quirky shop where you could buy weird looking pets.  If anybody can tell me the names of the games or even better, the demo disk, you would make two sisters trying to remember their youth very, very happy.   

    System 7 came with some very classic, fun, interesting games.
    The game that you are thinking of was called "Firefall." The game was made by Pangea Software.
    Below is a youtube link to see the game in action / listen to the music:

  • Does anyone use a LaCie external hard drive with their Mac using imovie '09?  I have some questions.

    Does anyone use a LaCie external hard drive with their Mac using imovie '09?  I have some questions.

    Are you actually having a problem with the new Lacie drive, or are you just asking is the Lacie drive somehow different from your old G-Drive?
    From a connection standpoint, most Lacie desktop drives have both USB and FireWire connections, just like the G-Drives do.  You would connect and use it the same as a G-Drive.
    Regarding capturing to the external HD, if you are using a camcorder that has FireWire (iLink) connection, it is not advisable to have an external FireWire HD connected to your Mac at the same time as your camcorder; there are often communication conflicts between the camcorder and the hard drive if they are connected at the same time.  The conflicts usually appear as either dropped frames or a complete freeze.   This is more common with Canon miniDV camcorders but I have also seen this behavior with Sony miniDV camcorders.  (The problem is the camcorder's FW implementation, not the hard drive.)  The workaround is to capture to your Mac's internal HD and later copy the captured video to your external HD.

  • How does one transfer CS5 actions for use with CS6?

    CS6 installation, which was uneventful, has transferred none of my actions from my copy of CS5. The CS5 actions are located in the actions folder of the APPLICATION/PHOTOSHOP CS5/PRESETS/ACTIONS.  The "actions" folder in application support/adobe in my library is empty, and has always been so.
    Only the CS6 default actions are located in the same folder for CS6.
    I use imac i7, lion.
    Note that i also have CS3 and CS4 on my machine. This due to recent upgrade to CS5 and recent upgrade to LION, and my general paranoia.
    Must i load each action into CS6, one at a time?
    thanks to any and all.
    vince

    Re: how does one transfer CS5 actions for use with CS6?
    On a Mac - There are multiple ways to do this.  I have done them both ways. In order to do this you need to know where you have your actions stored, and you can move them all at once if you have them stored in the same location.
    1. You can load an action ONE AT TIME into your actions palette by:
         A. Open up the action palette and click on the little arrow with 4 little horizontal lines next to it on the upper right corner of the actions palette.
         B. Select "Load Actions" and a Finder window will open up and you can search your computer through this window for your actions.
         C. Click on the action from the Finder window then click 'Open' at the bottom right of the finder window.
         D. To save these so that they appear every time you open up your actions palette, go back to the little arrow at the top right of the actions palette and when the drop down window opens- click on 'Save Actions'. It will select the location where the          actions are currently stored as the place to save them. If you want to change that path, you can do it at this time in the little path window.  I just leave it, since I keep all my actions stored in the same file.
    2. TO MOVE MULTIPLE ACTION SETS AT ONCE
         A. Open up CS6 (or CS5) and move the Photoshop workspace it to the right side of your computer screen so you can see your desktop on the left side.
         B. Open up your Finder search window from your dock (the square blue head icon thingy for those who are new to photoshop). Move this to the left side of your screen so you can see the Photoshop work space on the right and the Finder window          on the left. In the Finder window, navigate to the file where all your actions are stored, select all the actions in the file (command+A will select everything in the file if you are actively inside the open file) or you can select multiple files           individually by continuously holding down the command key and clicking on the different actions you want to move.
         C. With the Photoshop workspace visible on the right, and the actions palette open so you can see that the actions actually transferred - In the Finder window, click the selected actions you want to load and drag them over to the Photoshop           workspace.  I did this without an image open, I just dragged them onto the empty workspace.  The actions should all appear immediately in the actions palette that is open.
         D. To save these so that they appear every time you open up your actions palette, go back to the little arrow at the top right of the actions palette and when the drop down window opens click on 'Save Actions'. It will select the location where the           actions are stored as the place to save them. If you want to change that path, you can do it at this time in the little path window.  I just leave it, since I keep all my actions stored in the same file.
    I hope this helps.

  • Can I drop an IMovie Slideshow with music into IDVD?

    Hello,
    I created (and it took a long time) a slideshow with music using IMovie. Now I want to burn it to a DVD and am realizing I need to put it into IDVD. I saved it to my desktop and then dropped it into the IDVD Magic program but it does not save the slideshow. Or if it does, I can't seem to figure out how to play it. I also can't figure out how to choose the picture for the IDVD theme page. Any help with how to burn my IMovie slideshow on a DVD using either IDVD or some other way, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Or if it does, I can't seem to figure out how to play it.
    Click on the "Preview" button in the bottom left corner of the iDVD window. For more details go to iDVD Help: >_Making a Magic iDVD_
    I also can't figure out how to choose the picture for the IDVD theme page.
    Once you have added your slideshowGo to Help: _Adding images and movies to drop zones_
    Any help with how to burn my IMovie slideshow on a DVD using either IDVD or some other way, would be greatly appreciated.
    I am not familiar with the workings Magic DVD, but if you have already created the slideshow, it might be just as easy to follow the regular route in making this project. If you wish to try this, follow these steps.
    1. Open iDVD, select to create a new project, and name it.
    2. Select the theme.
    3. Import your slideshow into iDVD. Go to your movies folder (or wherever your project is saved), and drag the iMovie icon (the one with the star) to the window of your iDVD project. Avoid drop zones.
    4. You can add photos to the drop zones by clicking on the "Media" Button in the bottom right corner, and then on "Photos". Just drag and drop the photos to their desired location.
    5. Preview by clicking on the triangle at the bottom of the window.
    6. When you are ready to burn, first go to File>Save as disk image. This will allow you to have a final check of your project before burning to DVD. You can see how this project will actually play when played on a regular DVD player. If everything is fine, you can then burn the DVD using Disk Utility.
    I hope this helps.
