Is it possible to configure the switch port to mode trunk if I m going to put a Pc on that port?

If the answer is yes then what are the adventages and the disadventages of doing this. I've proof this with real switches and configuring the ports as trunk with a pc and the pc can ping other pc that are on the same Vlan or configure as trunk. I would like to know why does that happend?

Hi,
It may work, you can configure an interface connecting to host as a trunk link but only if you want that host to receive data from multiple vlans since trunks allowed all vlans per default.
Usually, on a switch you configure vlans to logically devide the users and to avoid flooding all the users with all the information from multiple vlans which they do not need and which causes unnecessary burden on the ports carrying traffic.
Hope this helps.

  • How to configure the eth1 port of NIcRIO 9024 to another IP address and subnet mask

    Hi ,
    I am using cRIO 9024 and am planning to configure it to be an MMS server that interacts with a client which is in another network with different IP and subnetmask. I want to run the server VIs from the host computer via the eth0 port and want to communicate the MMS messages through the eth1 port. the eth0 port is configured as a static IP as shown in the screenshot attached and would like to assign a separate IP and subnet mask to the other port . But when I try to save the configuration I get the error "Could not save your changes tot he target.The subnet mask for eth1 is invalid" .
    I have already directly cross connected the Crio and have disabled the firewalls and still am not able to configure it.
    1) is it possible to configure the ethernet ports to have separate IPs corresponding to different networks and thus the subnet masks?
    2) If its possible then what is the mistake i am doing while configuring it ?
    I would be extremaly grateful to have a reply on this as its pretty desperate to spend a lot of time just to set up the IP configurations..!!!!!
    Regards
    Abhinav

    Dear Abhinav,
    I'm sorry but what you are tryining to do is not suported by the Second Ethrnet Port on any cRIO and so you getting this error meeage.
    Here a abstract out ouf the KnowledgeBase How do I Configure the Dual Ethernet Ports on Real-Time Controllers?:
    Ethernet port 2 is currently not supported to communicate outside its own subnet. There is no capability of configuring the Default Gateway for Ethernet port 2 and therefore cannot connect to a large isolated intranet.  However, there appears to be a common misconception that this port can only be used for communication between NI products: this is not the case, though any communication through the secondary port must be within the same subnet.

  • Is it possible to choose the serial port if only the run time engine is installed

    I have an application, which communicates over the serial port. When I use the full version of Labview I can change the serial port without any problem from Com1 to Com2 (similar to the example “Hardeware input output -> serial -> Labview serial vi"). When I build an application and try to run this program on a computer where only the run time engine 6.1 is installed, it is not possible to choose the serial port. Since there is no “Measurement and Automation Explorer” available on the run time engine and no directory C:\VXIpnp is created, when the run time engine is installed, I do not see a way, how I can satisfy the computer with the information it needs for configuring
    the different ports. Any suggestions?

    Hi Daniel,
    Before LV6.1 there was LV5.1 In LV5.1 the way to Spedify a resource was to use a string control with correct VIsa Resource Class identifier. For eg. "GPIB0::11" or "ASRL1::INSTR". With Introduction of VISA Resource Name Control and linking with MAX, These names are Available from Pull Down List and Can be Aliased, meaning ASRL1 which is Serial Port 1 can be called COM1 and so on. However the old method still works with all 6.1 Controls. Only thing is you have to make sure you Dont Conflict the Class Names ie Use "GPIB::.." instead of "ASRL..." when addressing Serial Port VI's.
    To solve your Problem I would Build a Menu ring with COM1 to COM4 in the Pull Down List.
    Next, If I use the Traditonal Serial Port VI wich accepts the Integer as Seria
    l Port #. I just Wire the Menu Ring to this VI.(Remember COM1 is 0, COM2 is 1 for this VI)
    If I use VISA Config Serial Post. I build an Array Constant with Corresponding VISA Class Names So in our case a String Array Constant of 4 elements "ASRL1::INST" to "ASRL4::INST". I Use Index Array Function With the Index Wired to my Menu Ring. The Array Input Terminal Wired to the Array Constant. The Output of this Array will be correct Visa Class Name Based on slection of my Menu Ring. I can Wire this as Input to my VISA Config Serial Port Vi.
    I have attached a Small VI to Illustrate this.
    Drawback: You must Predefine what Ports you will Want to Use. Basically you define all the cases.
    I hope this Answers your Q!
    Good Luck

  • Device on the switch port does not match the switch port on the device.

    I have a HP 2910al-48G switch with bunch of HP 6200 pro connected to it. The devices on the switch under the VLANs tab show up at the correct port (if they do which is question #2) except for one device. For some reason, a different device shows up on the switch. But if i go to the device page, it shows it is connected to the correct port on the device.
    e.g., On the switch, port 14 shows PC01 when in fact PC02 should be connected.
    If i go to PC02 page, then it correctly says it is connected to port 14.So how can i manually edit the device info on the VLAN page?

  • Is there ANY way to configure the wired ports on Airport Extreme with 7.6.1 software?

    I need to connect a Cisco router to one of the wired ports because I'm creating a home lab with several switches and routers and attached hosts. I need the VERY BASIC ability to set (or even just to SEE) what IP address the AirPort is using/assigning, but with the current AirPort Utility, you apparently can't show the DHCP table for wired connections or set up a static pool of addresses to use or really, to do anything else that is ABSOLUTELY BASIC networking configurations for a router. I don't even know what range of IP addresses the AirPort is using for the wired ports.
    I love this device - it works much better than my old Linksys that I replaced a couple years ago, but this is the Apple Nannies taking things too far. Sure, make the products easy to configure and use, but stop taking away the ability for advanced users to actually use the product because all you're doing is ******* off your power users - which are the exact people whose friends always ask for recommendations on what products to buy. I've always recommended Apple products to everyone, but if they're going to engineer everything so that only stupid people can use them, then only stupid people will buy (and recommend) them. (Can you tell I'm annoyed that I've wasted so much time on a completely unnecessary and irrelvant side-issue when I should be already working on my actual work project?)
    /Rant-off
    So, does anyone know how to access the actual configuration of the AirPort Extreme so I can use a static IP address for my Cisco router that's plugged into one of the AirPort's wired ports? That's all I need.
    Thanks.

    The AirPort assigns IP addresses via DHCP in a range you specify. You may also elect to assign devices their own static IP addresses. That does not involve the Extreme at all, though you may "reserve" those addresses in its DHCP Reservations table.
    AirPort Utility > Network > Network Options...
    Assigning static IP addresses obviates any need to determine the IP addresses the Extreme assigns.
    Update its firmware to version 7.6.3.

  • Is it possible to get the 'Switch to tab' option higher when typing in the Awesome Bar?

    Hello,
    I'm currently running the latest version of Aurora and although I really like it, there's one thing that kind of annoys me. I'm often running more than 100 tabs at once, and searching all of them to find the desired tab takes a long time, therefore I'd love to use the 'Switch to tab' function, but more often than not, that option is very far down the list of suggestions, causing me to not notice them. So I'd like to know if it's possible to have this option display as one of the first suggestions, instead of putting in further down the list.
    Thanks in advance,

    you can also change the character within the firefox configuration: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.urlbar.restrict.openpage'''. double-click it and change its value to any other key instead of the preconfigured %.

  • Is it possible to configure the OS X Server VPN Service to use Certificates?

    I was attempting to set up the VPN Service on OS X Server 4.0.3 (Yosemite) to use certificates instead of a private shared key.  It does not appear that the VPN Server in OS X Server is designed to use anything other than a private shared key (on the server side).  I was wondering if I was missing something?  The VPN Server works fine using the PSK (L2TP or PPTP) - I just thought I would experiment with certificates - but every example I am finding shows the PSK being used - although some of the "how to" tuturials allude to the fact that VPN certificates are supported for L2TP - but they don't provide any detail on how that functionality would be configured.  I tried creating both a VPN Server and VPN Client certificate - however - the certificates show up in the login keychain and do not appear in the certificate window in the Server app.  I was hoping that maybe the presence of a VPN Server Certificate would possibly enable an option to use it when configuring the VPN.
    ~Scott

    No unfortunately the 'official' Apple VPN service does not have this ability, furthermore as Apple use a heavily customised version of Racoon you cannot cheat by trying to do this via the command line.
    You will have to use a completely different VPN server, Mac and iOS clients can do this but not the Mac server side. I use StrongSwan running in a Linux virtual machine.

  • Is it possible to forward the same port for 2 different computers?

    i have WoW and some other programs on 2 pcs that need to use the same port at the same time, and i was wondering if it is at all possible?

    My guess is your only choice is probably with Port Triggering.  This requires the application to send outbound data through a predetermined port in order to trigger the inbound port(s) to open.

  • Is it possible to control the parallel port with Lookout 5.0

    I want a simple demo setup on a PC, so I can control the 8 data bits of the parallel port. Example, to use START p/b that would toggle bit 0 and data returned on bit 1.

    It is possible to send bytes to the parallel port using the ASCII object within Lookout. However, it is presently not possible to control the state of the individual bits on the parallel port with Lookout.
    If you need to control the individual bits on a parallel port, consider using LabVIEW. It is much more powerful when programming serial and parallel ports.
