Dual DMVPN Dual Hub Request for Help?

                   Hello Anyone with DMVPN experience,
                    Can you please have a look at my DMVPN queries in the attached document?
                    Thank you
                    Regards
                    Phuc Le

Hi Phuc Le,
I found for you a quite detailed design and implementation guide. Please read carefully and implement a test bed. I'm sure you will get support for specific issues if you run into problems.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/Enterprise/WAN_and_MAN/DMVPN_2_Phase2.html
These documents are carefully written and I never encountered any problems with such reference implementations.
Also: Please don't formulate your questions in an attached document, this makes it diffucult for us to give you answers.
Best regards, MiKa

  • A Request for help from me again! Yay!

    hi guys! I was working on implementing threads for the directions of the unit. When i press forward once...nothing happens, but when i press twice it gives me this HUGE list of errors. I dont have a clue. Again, any help would be appreciated.

    } By the way, here is my order of events, so you can look forward to seeing requests for help for them (hopefully not).
    Threads: Moving the guy around
    Threads: Making him shoot a ball at the mouses position
    Network: Allow others to join/play game (This is gonna be HUGE probably), while host decides on game type.
    Thanks for all the help so far!

    Where does moving ever get started? Why does Move extend Thread instead of implementing Runnable? (Implementing runnable is preferred and often the correct way to do it and it is in this case)
    But regardless there shoud be a moving.start() somewhere or start of the Thread that has the Runnable target Move.... I don't think I see one. Unless I missed it.
    so...itll work if i change the setup to Runnable?

  • How can I get iTunes to answer my requests for help?

    I have tried for a few days now to get iTunes to help me get some tunes that partially downloaded. Their initial response seemed to work but the next day the tunes were only partially on my PC. I re-installed the software, called the phone number on my PayPal receipt, sent another e-mail request for help, responded to their follow up e-mail a few days ago asking if my issue was resolved.........and STILL cannot get them to help me resolve. They say I should receive a response within 24 hours, and it has been longer. No phone number to call, the initial instructions to re-download the missing tunes were confusing  

    It is quite easy to find out how to redownload purchases, using the search bar ( by Support) at the top of this page:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    You can contact itunes support again by clicking Support at the top of the page, then clicking the link under Contact Us.

    (We had raised a OSS 161317/2014 and this has been recommended by Shu Liu )

  • Approximately 6% of all requests for help on this forum are ever "solved."

    Approximately 6% of all requests for help on this forum are ever "solved." And approximately 34% of all requests for help on this forum are never responded to. Even with all the caveats, these numbers are embarrassing. Good luck everyone!

    More facts and stats from the horse's mouth - http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/annualreport/2009/sustainability.html
    "Total assets as of December 31, 2009 were $143 million compared with $116 million at the end of 2008, an increase of 23 percent. Unrestricted net assets at the end of 2009 were $120 million compared with $94 million in 2008, a 28 percent increase."
    "Mozilla consolidated expenses for 2009 were $61 million, up approximately 26 percent from 2008 expenses of $49 million. Mozilla operating expenses in 2009 continued to remain highly focused on people and infrastructure."
    "At the end of 2009, Mozilla was funding approximately 250 people working around the world."
    Yes, Mozilla is indeed doing very well but they're a bit worried about the IRS audit that is currently going on.
    Now, if we take the figure from the 2008 cnet article that 80% of expenses are spent on Mozilla employees as a relatively stable benchmark for 2009, we see that employee salaries averaged out to around $200,000 dollars annually for each employee, which obviously isn't what each employee is actually getting paid, but what it does mean is that given typical corporate scaling of salaries, some folks in this non-profit are making lots and lots of money.
    The individuals who should be the most upset about Mozilla's unwillingness to invest even a fraction of its profits into building a real and responsive user support system are the collective-community-driven-volunteers who commit their free time so Mozilla can continue to cash in big time at their expense. A brilliant model!
    Again, Firefox users appreciate the work that you and the other unpaid/unacknowledged volunteers do here.... Mozilla appreciates it more.

    Don't multipost and don't use the browser's back button to edit your posts as that creates multiple postings. I've removed the other thread you started with the same questio.
    Also, don't post to long dead threads. I've blocked your post and locked the thread you resurrected.

  • Safari crashes on launch -- but Request for Help fails to post...

    For a week, I've tried to post a message,to the "Safari for Mac" forum. But it fails to post.
    Instead, I get a message, advising "We'll be right back".
    Other people have been posting messages during this week -- so what's wrong with mine?
    My message is a request for a solution to my problem of Safari crashing immediately on launch.
    The message includes a Safari Crash Report, which is quite detailed (as a textEdit file, compressed Archive, it runs to 29KB).
    Hoping that this brief plea gets through. TIA.

    The problems are caused by third party input managers/enhancers that have not yet been updated by their developers to comply with the standards used by Safari 4.1.and/or Safari 5.
    In your case these are:
    007af000 /Library/InputManagers/SIMBL/SIMBL.bundle/Contents/MacOS/SIMBL
007f4000 /Library/InputManagers/Ecamm/Ecamm Plugin Loader.bundle/Contents/MacOS/Ecamm Plugin Loader
    00e0a000 /Library/InputManagers/Ecamm/Plugins/iGlasses.plugin/Contents/MacOS/iGlasses
00e45000 /Users/john/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/VideoboxSafariPlugin.bundle/Contents/MacOS/VideoboxSafari Plugin
    02cd6000 /Users/john/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/iGetterBundle.plugin/Contents/MacOS/iGetterBundle
02e02000 /Users/john/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/iGetterBundle.plugin/Contents/Resources/iGetterSafariBundle.bundle/Con tents/MacOS/iGetterSafariBundle
    You fill find them in one or either of these folders:
    Home/Library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/Library/Application Support
    although the exact location is indicated in your crash report as quoted above - look under 'Binary Images'.
    Close Safari and delete them, then restart Safari and it should be working normally. Alternatively drag them to the desktop and restart Safari. then add them back one at a time, restarting Safari every time, until you find the one (or more) causing the crash.
    Check with the developers of the plug-in/s in question for updates that are Safari 5 compliant.

  • WRT54G not working with cable internet access - request for help

    Good evening!
    At least that's the time when I write this.
    I have a PC running Vista 64-bit version. 
    Until yesterday, I was connected to the internet using my WRT54G and a cable modem. There was a power outage (or blackout) and I lost my internet connection. I was not home when this happened. I got home and found the circuit breaker off. Since then, I can not access the internet anymore when I use the router. 
    If I connect the computer to the cable model directly, I can access the internet without a problem (hence I'm able to post this). 
    If I connect the computer to port 1 in the router, and connect the cable modem to the internet port in the router, I am not able to connect to the internet. 
    I have already:
     - updated the firmware to the latest version (it was already installed)
     - reset the router pressing the "reset" button for 30 seconds, unplugging it, and reconnecting power still pressing the "reset" button for 30 seconds. 
     - power cycled the devices
     - tested 3 differnet patch cables that I know are good and they work
     - reset the modem via a soft-reset remote request sent from the cable operator
    None of these options have helped me restore my router's connection to the internet.
    I know the router is working because I can print using my wireless printer and I can see my shared drives in the other PC I have connected to it,  but none of them are able to connect to the internet!
    Does anyone have any additional ideas on how I can fix this, before I go out and buy a new router?
    Thanks in advance!
    Pablo

    As you have mentioned in your previous post, that you have resetted your router and you are still able to Print from your Wireless Printer, I Feel that your Router is not getting Resetted properly, whenever you reset your router your router goes to Factory default mode, and it will change the wireless network name to "linksys" and your Network will be unsecured. Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable.
    Once you reconnect the power to the Linksys router, On your computer Open IE and in the address bar type (http://192.168.1.1) and hit enter, when prompted for username and password, Leave the username blank and in password type "admin" and click Ok. Below the Setup tab you will find MTU, So change it to "Manual" and change the size from 1500 to 1365 and Click on Save Settings. Then Below the Setup Tab you will find the Sub tab "MAC address Clone" click on it and "Enable" and click on "Clone your PC's MAC" and click on Save Settings. Now you can Unplug the Power from Router and Unplug the Power for Modem. Wait for 30 seconds, and 1st connect the Power to your Modem and wait till all the lights goes Stable then you can connect the power to Linksys router and once all the lights are sold. On your computer Open IE and check if you are Online. 

  • Request for Help - Very slow and programs crash, etc. since upgrading to Lion

    I have searched the forum for a while looking for answers, but everyone seems to have different issues.
    Since upgrading to Lion last week, EVERYTHING is running slow.  I have an iMac (late 2009) with 4GB ram and over 700GB of free hard drive space.
    I am not running a ton of heavy duty programs -- just the basics - word, entourage, safari, preview, and occasionally Photoshop, iPhoto, etc.  I haven't even tried to edit any video since upgrading.
    I continually get the "spinning wheel" when doing the most simple tasks like deleting a mail message, or opening a pdf file.
    I have done all software updates.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Kim

    Entourage & Photoshop are both serious memory hogs.    Export your data to Mail, Addressbook and iCal*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/entouragemigration.html
    Next for Photoshop, make sure to follow tips on the http://roaringapps.com/apps:table website for your version of Photoshop, to ensure you aren't overtaxing your system, and that you are usign any applications that are current for Lion. If you have any WiFi routers, make sure WPA2 password protection is on, and not WEP, and not an open network, and that their firmware has been tested with Lion.  Lastly, speed issues may be due to website design.  Try different browsers*: http://www.macmaps.com/browser.html

  • ERROR 4323- Request for help did not provide a numeric page ID to show help

    Hi All,
    I am getting the above error on a page with help text region and a report region. Very similar to the issue discussed in the following thread:
    Re: Error 4323 on Help Text Region
    I have set the report template to 'template: 2. Standard(PPR)' and the pagination scheme to 'Row Ranges 1-15 15-30 in select list (with pagination)'.
    I do not get the error if I click the 'Next' button but if I choose from the select list I get the above error. I also tried one other pagination scheme 'Row Ranges 1-15 16-30 (with set pagination)' and still get the same error.
    Please help !

    Ted,
    Looks like you found a bug for us. I'm guessing that you have not actually translated your application and published a French version, but that the application language setting is set to "Use Browser Language" (see Edit Application page under Globalization). I can offer two different workarounds: 1) If you want to run your application with French NLS settings (or whatever your browser NLS is) just create a before-header process of type PL/SQL anonymous block on your help page consisting of:
      wwv_flow.g_translated_flow_id := wwv_flow.g_flow_id;Don't worry about why that fixes the problem, it's just one of those behind-the-scenes things.
    2) If you don't need your application to inherit the browser's NLS settings just change the application attribute to "No NLS" or set the application primary language to English. Again, you set these on the Edit Application page under Globalization.
    We'll fix the bug in the next release. Thanks for pointing it out.
    -Scott

  • Alert: Magican and Request for Help

    I made the mistake of installing some new software, supposedly a cleaning utility called Magican, which I think may be some kind of malware. Immediately after running it, I began to have problems launching some applications. I tried to remove it and all the things it installed, but it has not been easy. The console now shows a never-ending stream of messages such as those below, a new one every several seconds. I should say that I also once had installed MacKeeper, but I thought that it had long since been eradicated.
    FWIW, I have combed through all my Library files for Launch items and demons, startup items, gone through my Accounts startup items and attempted to find invisible files, searching on zeobit, MacKeeper, Magican, castle, etc. [no matches show up]. The Activity Viewer shows nothing running that seems to be associated with any of these. Any thoughts on how to get rid of this stuff would be much appreciated.

    launchd is Mac OS X's system to launch program at startup time or regular interval.  It ensures your automatically started applications are restarted in case of crash.
    Because, you deleted all binaries, but kept Magican registered with launchd, it complains it can not start the binary.
    To cleanup Magican and MacKeeper from launchd, use a terminal and issue the following command
    sudo launchctl remove com.magican.castle
    you can also use  "launchctl list" to see the list of registered daemons.
    Finally, to ensure that Magican will not register itself at next reboot, you must issue the following command
    sudo rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.magican.castle.plist
    (alternatively, just delete this file and reboot your mac :-)
    Hope this helps

  • [Megaworks 5.1 THX 550] Request for help with broken sub!

    Help!
    Just the other day my Megaworks began producing a loud low level buzz when switched on they had been working fine the previous day, but when I switched them on the next day instantly the made this unbearable low level noise.
    After much investigation I discovered that the centre and sub channels seem to be screwed in the sub itself. Trying various cable/soundcard/speaker combinations verified that it is indeed the sub itself at fault, rather than any other component.
    The current situation is that any activity on the sub channel will produce an intolerable sound which plays at a volume ignorant of the settings on the volume control. Nothing plays through the centre speaker at all any more. Unplugging the sub/centre channel fixes the problem sometimes, but often it reappears after a short time even with the channel unplugged. Once the sound starts the only way to stop it is to power down the speakers (via the remote or via the power switch) or plug in the headphones. Also using the volume control causes audible 'clicks' to be heard, which were not there previously.
    Note that the headphone pass-through on the remote still functions perfectly (volume control at well), but I assume that is on entirely different circuitry.
    My best guess is that some electricity spike (when switching on the unit) fried a component, or perhaps the extreme cold we've had here messed it up, but I aint no expert!
    Questions then:
    1. Given it'ss out of warranty, does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be the cause. Or rather what I could do to fix it's (I'm fairly handy with a soldering iron, and happy to get my hands dirty!)
    2. Otherwise what are the chances of a repair shop being able to do anything with it's Are there such things as Creative approved repair shops (in Scotland)? Would it likely cost a packet?
    3. Failing that, is it possible to purchase only a sub as a spare? I don't have the money right now to replace the whole lot with something similarly spec'd but may be able to stretch to a spare.
    I know it'ss a bit of me clutching at straws here, but any help/suggestions gratefully received! I so don't want to lose my pride and joy and have to make do with some poor alternative.
    (Apologies for the length of the post I wanted to try and cover all bases!)

    yes u can i think.. should b alright.. you have a good amp man!

  • Third request for help.

    Am still getting nowhere trying to install Itunes on my laptop. Currently I download Itunes then when I try to run it I get the following message :-
    The installer has insufficient priveleges to modify this file:
    C:\Program Files\Acknowledgements.rtf.
    I am the main user and administrator on my laptop have checked all setting, removed, re-downloaded etc and still I cannot get it to work.
    Can anyone help me ?
    Thanks

    I am not sure if I will be able to help you with this.
    It sounds as though you have a problem with messed up access rights on your PC. This has been quite common recently and it has been difficult to sort out. If I am right, it is a serious Windows problem, not specifically an iTunes problem. Have you been able to install any other programs since you had this trouble?
    Try searching the iTunes for Windows forum for posts containing "insufficient privileges" and you will get an idea of the problem.
    To get things started, which operating system are you using. Things will be different on Windows XP Home.
    Next you need to check the access right on your Program files and Program Files\iTunes folder.
    Right click on the folder and select the security tab.
    What accounts are listed and which ones have full control? Also if you go to the advanced tab you can check the owner of the folder.
    Here are a couple of links on permissions and ownership to give you an idea what to do if you don't know:

    http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/05/25/how-to-take-ownership-and-grant-permiss ions-in-windows-vista/
    At the moment, I just want you to look, don't change anything.
    P.S. I forgot to mention, before you start doing this, check to see if you can open the Acknowledgements.rtf file, this is to check that it is not corrupt - that can cause a similar message.
