IP address range of Microsoft Location Services API

Hi,
I am developing a LOB windows 8.1 application. The windows 8 tablet device we are using needs to be locked down by IP address to the specific services that the application will use. I have not been able to find the IP address range for the Microsoft Location
Sevices API uses (Windows.Devices.Geolocation namespace).
Does someone know where on the MS website this sort of information is held as I can't seem to find this information anywhere?
Thanks

Probably you can find more information from here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd464636(v=vs.85).aspx
As I understand system have a location service and when the app calls the service, the service query the location automatically.
If you still have questions about location service, perhaps ask at desktop forum is a better choice:

Limitation on source group with services using ip address range

Hello,
I have an interface on CSS which I regard as public and another interface I regard as private. On the private interface is a server farm with private ip addresses. Since the server admin guys insisted the servers need to access internet just for Windows Update, I made a source group to NAT the private addresses to public addresses to allow the servers to access internet.
I defined services for use by the source group. Since keepalive is not important in this case, I set keepalive none to ,I hope so, save system resources.
I have server 192.168.1.1-5 (5 servers) and 192.168.1.11-14 (4 servers), so I made a service with ip address 192.168.1.1 range 5 and another service 192.168.1.11 range 4.
But then I found that the two services cannot be put in the same source group. It is because of the different range in the service definition.
I can get it work if I define services with single ip address, but then I will have a long configuration with repetative information. And I think this may be using more system resources.
I can also get it work if I include 192.168.11.15 and define two services both with a range of 5 ip addresses. But 192.168.11.15 is not actually there.
Why is there such a limitation on source group, or services with ip address range? Is there the same limitation for content rules? Or am I getting it all wrong and should do the configuration in other ways?
Advices will be welcomed.

Yes you are correct. There is a limitation while adding services into source groups.
You can create as many services that share an ip range (eg. a /24 subnet range). But the trouble starts when you add them into source groups. You can not add them into a source group NOR you can add them under different source groups as well.
You mentioned that you can use single ip adress instead of range for the services...but it is not true as you will be stuck when you add them into source groups.
I can think of these following options in your case.
Option 1
Change the ip range on the servers. Use 2 different IP ranges one for those 5 servers and another for those 4 servers.
Create 2 services for each range.
Create 2 groups and add the services.
service server-out-192.168.1.1-5
ip address 192.168.1.1 range 5
active
service server-out-172.168.1.11-14
ip address 192.168.1.11 range 4
active
group server-out-192.168.1.11-14
vip address x.x.x.1
add server-out-192.168.1.1-5
active
group server-out-172.168.1.11-14
vip address x.x.x.2
add server-out-172.168.1.11-14
active
Option 2
Create a service that includes all the ip addresses starting from 192.168.1.1 through .14 using the range keyword.
Now you need to create one source group with a VIP. Add the service to the source group.
If you do not want to cover the unassigned ip addresses just move them up and use consecutive ones.
service server-out-192.168.1.1-14
ip address 192.168.1.1 range 14
active
group server-out-192.168.1.11-14
vip address x.x.x.x
add service server-out-192.168.1.1-14
active

Location services reverts to old address

When I moved from Ontario to Florida it took Location Services a few days to locate my new address. One month later it has reverted to my old address. How can I correct this?

To follow up on Illaass' post, these are all the routers that my iPad and iPod can currently detect and I have no clue which one or ones it is using for location services. "Express" is the only router that that's providing an Internet connection.
Some of my neighbors turn their routers on and off as needed so a similar photo tomorrow would look different.

Invalid mapping of rule to service address ranges

Hi
I have a configuration with a vip port range and service port range. When I try to add to the content a primary sorry server i got following answer:
Invalid mapping of rule to service address ranges
I presume, that this is beacause i don't have an address range in the primary sorry service. Is there a way to configure the primary sorry server ?
*************Configuration

Thank you for the answer

To me it looks like you are using two services in the group that contain ip ranges and then you are trying to add a service that does not have a range.

HT5594 Does location services show your actual address when at home

Does location services show your actual address when at home

I should also mention that my wife got a phone the same time I did. Sometimes her's will show the same problem, and then sometimes her's will work fine while mine is right next to her's and not working. This type of behavior would point to a problem with the device and not the service. But then the fact that mine DOES work at times would indicate a software/service issue. I've heard others say that behavior will change when WiFi is turned on or off or when airplane mode is turned off and on. I haven't really noticed that. It's a hard one to figure out. Hopefully it is something with the software/service that will simply be solved with updates.

Microsoft Online Services Team notifications use 'alternate email address'

Could someone direct me to where I can log a 'feature request' or report what I actually consider to be a 'bug' in how Microsoft uses user profile information in Office 365? Maybe this is the right place...???
Anyway, it seems like a really bad choice to use the email address provide for the purpose of emergency account access (if you lose your password) for notifications about your Office 365 account.
*Alternate email address
If you forget your password, we will use this email to help you reset it and sign in to your Office 365 account.
So, for example, my wife works for a firm for which I am the Partner of Reference on their Office 365 account. My wife is the local admin for the firm's Office 365 account and has given her personal Yahoo email account for the above required 'alternate
email address'. So now, every time I get a notification about their account from the Microsoft Online Services Team, she gets a CC to her personal email account. This is not only illogical and annoying, but violates the stated purpose for providing the alternate
email address. That, in my opinion, make it a 'bug'.
Thanks!

Location Service set me in the wrong place

I recently moved from from LA to Las Vegas, and when I installed my network (3 Airport Express) then my MBP (retina 2012) OS 10.10.2 are keep on telling me that my location is in LA (my previous address). Interesting though is when I am Safari and other browsers, then ads and searches locates me at my correct location. But Maps, Find my phone and Time zone is using my previous location in LA.
Network is configured as one Airport Express is hardwired to the modem, and the other two act as extended network routers.
My iPhone 6plus have no problems and same with my iPad both on IOS 8.3.1. Even my MacAir (2012) OS 10.10.2 has no problem with the correct location. -all on same WIFI network as my MBP.
Any ideas or suggestions

The location service uses an Apple database of router location and its unique identifier. As of yet nobody here as been able to find a way to update the Apple database. You do not have to connect to a router to use its location, all yo have to do is to be within range.It could be find your previous home location since the database may still have you old location associated with your router (assuming you moved you router to your new location). For the other locations you obtained, they may have be from other routers.

Lync - SIP Location Service

Curently I have a deep look into the implentation of the SIP protocol in Lync.
There is one question I cannot answer by reading the official SIP RFC (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3665).
I found a good article about address another SIP subscriber.
So far anything is clear for me:
UserA wants to communicate with UserB. He sends an INVITE to his related Proxy1 with the logical SIP address of UserB. The Proxy1 try to convert the logical into a physical address (IP address of User2) by using his location service.
He will get the physical location and redirect the INVITE to UserB.
UserA --> Proxy1 ---> UserB
|
Location Service
Location Server
"Each SIP domain has a location server. This server administers e.g. information on the bindings of logical and physical SIP addresses.
Location servers often operate on the same platform as the associated registrar server."
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/api/content/SSKTXQ_8.0.0/com.ibm.help.sametime.telephony.doc/03-Technologien9.html
So here are my questions related to Lync:
"Each SIP domain has a location server."
This isnt the case in Lync. Each registrar (Proxy) will store the location information of each homed user. If I have multible registrars, An INVITE from an User1 homed on Registrar1 will be redirected to the Registrar2 of the other User2. Registrar2
will look for the physical location of User2 by asking his location service. This means Registrar1 doesnt have the information about the physical location of User2, only the information about the related Registrar (Registrar2) of User2. Am I right?
Where is the physical address information stored on the registrar?
Thanks in advanced for your help,
Augustin

In Lync or OCS we have the concept of pool say User 1 is enabled for Pool1 and User 2 is enabled for pool 2
When user1 tried to send a message to user2 it check if user 2 has supported sip domain if yes The it will check in AD where it has all Sip enabled user information for which pool User 2 is enabled ofr and then forward the request to that pool
Where is the physical address information stored on the registrar? In case of Lync it is the SQL database

Hi Mallory,
Did you get any bounce back message when sending mail to Microsoft ?
I recommend you send a message to
[email protected] and include your ip address 212.129.50.221.
The Microsoft Online Services Technical Support will help you to remove your ip from black list.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

Apple icloud IP address ranges so we can block them

Hi
Does anyone know what the IP range is for the shiny new data centre for Apples iCloud service?
Whilst it's a great service, and indeed i intend to make use of it myself on my devices, as the person in charge of managing data policy for a corporate the idea that it will be available for the PC platform makes me go pale in fear.
Should an app that uses the iCloud API get on to the desktop then our data could easily be removed and be, instantly, on a number of devices.
Anyone know if there is a list made public ?
Thanks
Olly

Apple does not publish IP address ranges that I've ever seen. Someone might be able to spot the addresses by using a packet analyzer or other such utility to monitor outgoing traffic.
I understand the concern, but I think we need to wait until we're closer to the actual launch of iCloud to see what kind of controls and restriction capibilities Apple provides for the service. I would certainly hope that Apple has considered this sort of issue.
Note that data backup and synchronization will be tied to the specific Apple ID, so barring any sort of data sharing capability, hinted at in the announcement information but not detailed, the only way anyone would be able to get access to any data would be if they had access to that same Apple ID. So it would take more than just getting a given app onto the system for data to be exposed.
Let's hang in and see what the situation will be as we get closer to the release.
Regards.

Is this normal? about Edge and Wifi location services

When connected to my wifi router the google maps app gets my current location correctly but if I disable wifi and just use edge then it says my current location is at another address about 1.4miles away which I've never been to

Sounds about right.
The way GPS-less location service works (in 1st gen iPhone or any other device without GPS) is to check which cellar towers are in range, and optionally strength of signal from each of them. Then compare with database of locations of towers (and optionally signal strengths at various distances from those towers). This can result in very low precision in some cases (off by a mile or two, even more), for example if you have only a tower or two in range.
To get higher precision, the phone can also use information about what WiFi networks are in range, and try to deduce more precise information from that. Unlike cell towers that have relatively long range, radios for WiFi networks have very short range, so if one or more WiFi networks your device sees are in the database, it results in relatively precise location (still much less precise than GPS, but unlike GPS, this works well even in close spaces that get no GPS signal at all).
And if you wondered, yes there are companies whose business is to drive around and map locations of WiFi networks.

Hey Mikael!
I actually was struggling through pretty much the same things at the same time that you were.
The EventTriggered extension is actually in the Microsoft.Azure.AppService.ApiApps.Service namespace, so without a using directive for that it will not be happy.
I created a library to help with the metadata generation required for Triggers, and did a write-up on exactly what it takes to create both a polling and push trigger (with a few more samples) here: https://github.com/nihaue/TRex#building-a-polling-trigger-api-app
Hopefully having that combined with
the official docs, and also
Sameer's sample can get you on the right track.
Hope that helps!

Using WebCenter Spaces Web Service API through JDeveloper's Data Control

Hi,
I'm trying to access WebCenter Spaces Web Service API (located at http://host:port/webcenter/SpacesWebService)
using JDeveloper's Web Center Data Control.
I created a data control in my portal project using JDeveloper's Web Service Data Control wizard.
I also created and configured key stores (jps-config.xml) at both sides (spaces server and my portal client).
How I created a data control:
* First I entered the name and the URL (http://host:port/webcenter/SpacesWebService?WSDL)
* Then I entered HTTP basic authentication details (user name and password)
* After that I drag-and-drop the getGroupSpaces() method from the data control to a .jspx page as a ADF read-only table.
* Then ran my portal project and navigated to this .jspx page and it worked. List of group spaces appeared well on that page.
The problem is that I got only public group spaces and group spaces created by the user I entered on HTTP basic authentication details.
I makes no sense to enter some static user details in a web service client (or a data control).
So the question is; can I use identity propagation to get only group spaces created by the same user which I logged in my portal?

Hi,
You generally get NameError when you are executing the createCred/updateCred from a incorrect location. Are you using the wlst from oracle_common\common\bin?
Also, In your steps I don't see what you did to populate the walllet at JDeveloper end after your updateCred failed. This is a required step. Use the wlst from the location emntioned above and you should be able to proceed.
Thanks,
Vishal

This is likely to depend on the version of the OC you have. The released one isn't supposed to work with Outlook 2003. Please contact Tech Support for the latest version and help.
