How does AirPort Utility communicate with remote/relay AirPorts?

1. Wireless case: Does the AirPort Utility always try to communicate with remote/relay AirPorts directly, or does it use the network WDS when another AirPort provides a stronger signal? If it's the former option, this might explain why people have problems sometimes configuring distant AirPort base stations in WDS setups. If it's the latter option, problems with configuring a distant AirPort might be caused by improper configuration of the AirPort providing the strongest signal (presumably, the nearest).
2. Ethernet case: When one attempts to configure an AirPort via Ethernet, does it matter whether the AirPort is configured to connect to the internet via Ethernet (vs. wirelessly)?

Thanks for the replies Bob

How come this values reset to null? What is causing this to reset?Nothing in this has anything to do with the sever. You need to check what the client did on his machine that caused registry to get modified?
    How does oracle ODBC works with Oracle database? Need to know all the steps involved?The connectoin from any client is initiated by a client process. This client process is supposed to get a server process to do his work. So if this is done, the client can work now with oracle . Please see the concepts guide for the gory details of the entire process.

  • How does the Apple Headphones with Remote Replacement Program non-return fee work?

    I have a pair of Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic that I purchased a year ago. According to the "Apple Headphones with Remote Replacement Program", http://www.apple.com/support/headphones/replacementprogram/, these headphones are also covered in the program. Currently, there are some issues with my headphone's remote, as it is extremely unresponsive. I don't know how Apple determines the headphone's purchase date, but their online service request page accepts my iPhone's serial number. Is there any way that i could ensure that Apple's willing to replace the headphones for free (E.g. mailing my current ones in first) because the non-return fee is basically its retail price. I do not live in the US so I can't go and exchange at an Apple Retail Store. Thanks in advance.

    I would just bring them into your local Apple Store/Genius Bar and ask.

  • How does the WCS communicate with the 4402 controller ?

    I would like to place the WCS server on a different vlan than the controller. How do they communicate ?
    Regards
    J Folkestad

    Hello,
    WCS communicates with the controller mainly through SNMP and HTTPS. You will find a list of protocols used on CCO
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk722/tk809/technologies_tech_note09186a00806f070a.shtml#portswcssvr
    So no problem to have WCS and controllers management ip addresses on two different subnets.

  • HT2304 IR Receiver firmware update Apple released an update that essentially changes how the IR receiver communicates with the OS

    remote no longer works the likely culprit is a missed IR Receiver firmware update.  Back around version 2.1 or 2.2 of the Apple TV operating system Apple released an update that essentially changes how the IR receiver communicates with the OS.  If your Apple TV missed that update and then later gets updated to the newer 3.0.X firmware your Apple TV will no longer respond to input from your remote, though the light on the front of the AppleTV will blink.  The solution is to load the update manually, but unfortunately that requires ssh access on the AppleTV.

    Thanks Dave,
    You are a genius. I can't tell you how much I appreciate being benifit of your knowledge and willingness to share it with others. A thousand times over, thank you!! I burned the little utility to a CD on another machine/setup, ran the little sucker and restarted in OS X like a hoot!!! About 8 minutes later I had the processor upgrade installed and see quite an improvment. Again, thanks and kudos be upon you,

  • I want to allow my local Flex projects to communicate with remote cfcs

    I want to allow my local Flex projects to communicate with remote cfcs that are hosted on an external server.
    For example I usually develop my flex apps locally and upload them to a server for testing. If could do the above I could have just have one database to test and run live data.
    How to I set up my services-config.xml to do this. Is this something I should set up in Flex builder?

    You can set up your project in flex builder to connect to the remote server instead of the local one. Also, you could add remote database as a datasource in the cold fusion administrator for the localhost; this would allow you to have single database for testing and production. Personally i like to have my localhost mirroring the production server this allows me to test localy and make sure that everything is working properly before publishing to the live server.

  • HT4145 Does this article apply to OS X Lion and Airport Utility 6.0?  Reason: Airport Utility cannot find my Airport Extreme (4th generation) wirelessly on my Time Capsule configured network even although the firmware in both units is up to date.

    Does this article apply to OS X Lion and Airport Utility 6.0?
    Reason: Airport Utility cannot find my Airport Extreme (4th generation) wirelessly on my Time Capsule configured network even although the firmware in both units is up to date.

    I thought you were trying to Extend the network with an Express as the article mentions you pointed to...
    You can't find the Airport Extreme then...
    I woudl suggest doing a Factory reset....
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
    Then you should be able to set it up just as you did when it was new....
    Factory default reset (using reset button)
    If the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule isn't accessible from AirPort Utility, the Factory Default reset can be accomplished by using the reset button.
    Unplug the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule from power.
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen or pencil, then plug the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule back in while continuing to hold the button until you see the light (LED) flash rapidly. This should happen after a few seconds.
    Release the button. This will factory default reset the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule.

    This is a somewhat daft question and purely out of interest.

    I have two drives in a MacPro and both have the same capabilities (DVD-RW). Why does it sometimes open the lower one, and sometimes the top one?

    The estimate is based on how long it already took to do how many blocks, and how many blocks are left to do. If you told it to overwrite 35 times, it will be a long, long time before it completes.
    The estimate is made grossly large by the presence of Bad Blocks that need to be Read during the test (not the case with Erase and Write Zeroes).
    Each Block is written with some redundancy bits, so that small errors can be corrected on reading. A Bad Block causes the drive to re-read. and re-read, and re-read, in hopes of getting correctable data the next time. This should NOT be an issue in writing. But if the drive stops responding (which can and does happen with a bad drive) the Erase function will just sit there, thinking it is making progress, and stretching out the time.
    Thanks, Grant.
    If I read your reply correctly, Erase and Zero Out free space shouldn't elongate the process, because there's no read occurring.
    The drive will not be Mounted while Disk Utility works on it, so it will not be on the Desktop. But ask Apple System Profiler \[ About this Mac > More Info > Serial ATA ] if the drive is still THERE . If it cannot be seen, you have your answer -- the drive dropped out of sight while being tested -- Bad Drive.
    Well, now I am confused. It's a FW800 drive. It's on the Desktop. And it appears under FireWire in System Profiler. AND Disk Utility shows a mount point. But the Unmount and Eject buttons are grayed out.
    Will the drive be mounted if it fails to respond to Disk Utility? That doesn't seem to make sense.
    How do I determine its status? It appears to be stuck at "1 day, 5 hours" but it'll take an hour for that to change. I think it's been that long since I first noticed the time.

  • How to extend the range with a second Airport Express? Do I need a DSL cable?

    How to extend the range with a second Airport Express? Do I need a DSL cable?

    Thanks, now we need a bit more information, please, in order to provide you with the correct information that you need.
    I assume that you already have one AirPort Express.....either a model A1264 or A1392.....set up and operating OK, is that correct?
    If yes, you can extend the network either by using wireless or an Ethernet cable with a second AirPort Express.....either the A1264 or A1392 model. A wired connection is the way to go, if possible, since it provides better performance.  But, wireless might work OK for you if you want to try that.
    Let us know "how" you want to extend......wireless or wired?

    How does create a server with multiple Clients ?
    Thanks

    For a multithreaded server you will need a thread to listen and at least one thread per client. If the conversation is half duplex, one thread per client works very well, if it's full duplex you will find one thread to send and one to receive much easier to program.
    I posted a Simple Socket Server that uses 1+2*clients threads.

  • How does lightroom 4 deal with lossless compressed raw files

    how does lightroom 4 deal with lossless compressed raw files

    Ok, sorry about the vague question.  My concern is centered around a new camera purchase ( Nikon D810 ) which produces huge files.  I shoot in RAW and never use lossless compression only uncompressed RAW because of my conservative nature .  But now it looks like I will be using Lossless compressed to help deal with the file size.  So the question was based on fears of data lost.  Thanks for the replies, and they confirm what I already suspected. So now I can feel confident using lossless compression.
