Looking for an internal traffic monitor for a RV042

I have an RV042 router and I'm looking to monitor the total upstream and downstream traffic from within the router. I know there is tons of software that I can put on a network computer to monitor traffic, but is there any software that I can put on the router itself that will monitor the traffic from within the router?                  

James,
This doesn't reside on the RV042, but I think its as close as you're going to get. Check out these threads:

Another popular one is Kiwi (Solarwinds now)
There are also many other SNMP monitoring tools you could use.
Best,
David

  • SCOM - -500 Internal Server Error - There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed

    Hi There,
    Need your assistance on the issue that we are facing in prod environment.
    We are able to open web console from remote machine and able to view monitoring pane as well as my workplace folders from console . Able to view and access alerts and other folder in the monitoring pane. We are able to view and access My Workplace folder
    and able to view the reports in Favorite Reports folder. But when I click on run Report we  are getting the below error  "500 Internal Server Error - There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed."
    In our environment we have 3 servers one is SQL server and two are SCOM servers. Please advise how to fix this issue. Do we have to do any thing from SQL End?

  • Looking for small part for HPw2207 monitor

    Hello. I am looking for a small circuit board part for my HPw2207 monitor. After searching for solutions to a OSD Lockout problem,  I found that pressing the Menu button for 10 seconds should stop it. However, the switch itself seemed stuck in the "on" position. So, as I am fairly adept at repairing things, I decided to open the monitor and see what the problem was. Well, I found it. After discovering how to remove the front and rear plastic bezel, down at the bottom of the monitor, where the Menu buttons are, there was a small circuit board housing and switch button assembly, that was all corroded. I removed it to look closer and what did I find?? It was CAT PEE!!!  One of my wife's cat's must have sprayed the corner where these switches are, and as cat pee is very acidic, it had completely corroded the 3  pins on the circuit board connector, and froze up 3 of the 4 micro switches.  So now, my only recourse to fix this is to order a new circuit board assembly. So......this is my question.  
      Are these parts still available, and if so, how do I order them.   I do have some numbers from the circuit board itself, which is held in place with the button assembly by two small screws.  
    On the front side of the circuit board, there is a number, which may or may not be the complete assembly number or perhaps the circuit board number, but I'm not sure. Here it is.
    7900771500000R
    On the back side of the circuit board(green side) there was this number.
    490481500600
    I don't even need the entire assembly. Only the circuit board.  I just purchased this monitor and can't afford another one.
    I may be able to use the monitor withOUT the circuit board in place, if it will work. I'm going to reassemble it without it to check. But if this circuit board is available, I would sure like to get one so I have access to the Menu items.  Since these monitors are still being sold(at Staples) I assume parts MUST be available, but from my experience in searching HP...well, I wouldn't doubt they arn't. But just in case...that's why I am posting this thread.  Thanks for any help.
    Oh...btw...the CAT is GONE now. History. Good riddance too. He pee'd on more than this monitor too. Ruined half a dozen things of mine and this was the last straw.
    Thanks

    This question was solved.

    Hi Rick,
    You might look on eBay for the part or Google the part number. HP considers monitors consumables so internal parts are not stocked. 
    I don't think an extended warranty will cover TCP (tom cat piss) even if you had one.

  • Traffic monitoring for Coherence 3.1

    The objective of our small project is to monitor the traffic on our coherence clusters. We also were trying to put the cache traffic as a object in the same cache name. The problem we encountered was during performance tests something happened to the coherence clusters and there appears to be some kind of lock not being released for others which made all the weblogic cluster go down. Weblogic went down with "too many open files". We have thread dumps which I can send if you guys need it nevertheless I have attached a part which I suspect is the reason.
    Heres the Code that was trying to do the monitoring. The doPut Servlet method does the put , after the put it calls a method RegisterTraffic which has a small logic to increment the count & put back into the cache. It has a Lock for the particular "Traffic" key.

    Hi user638596.
    Frankly, there is not enough information to go by. The code you pointed to is definitely not "bullet proof". First, after the lock has been acquired, it only catches Exceptions, so any Errors (e.g. OutOfMemoryError) would "leak" a lock. In general, the locking-protected code should look like (in pseudo-code):
    lock();
    try
      operations();
    finally
      unlock();
      }However, without seeing the log files and entire thread dump, it's impossible to figure out a real reason. I'd suggest you to submit those to our support at Oracle Metalink.

    I'm looking for some help connecting linksys IP Cameras to my home network to monitor my property when I'm travelling.  I used to do this with linksys WAPS, but since I've discarded all my old linksys networking and standardized on airport, I can't get these things working.  I know that I have to identify my camera through the DHCP table and set up port forwarding and there is the problem. 
    My network consists of 4  base stations set up in a roaming network - same network name and passwords.  I need to do it this way so I don't have to switch network when I move from one side of the house to the other, go to the cabana, or my shop in the barn.  The network works pretty well since I went to a roaming set up.  Good performance, yata, yata, yata.
    However, the roaming network requires the AEBS's to be set up in bridge mode, rather than sharing an ip address.  When the AEBS is set to  bridge mode, you don't see a DCHP table or have the ability to identify your IP Cam through the AEBS - and hence, no port forwarding. 
    I am able to identify and set up my Linksys IP Cam by locating the ip address on my FIOS router, even though, it's plugged into an AEBS.  I set it up, see the video, remove the ethernet cable from the IP Cam, restart - and I can't get to it from an AEBS.  In researching this, it appears, I should be setting up the AEBS to "share an IP Address", going to the DHCP table and identifying the camera's IP address and setting up port forwarding.  However, you don't see any of the DHCP or port forwarding options in Airport Network Utility when configuring in bridge mode. 
    I'm hoping I'm missing something here and that the solution isn't to set it up at the FIOS router level, but I'm beginning to think that's my only hope.  What concerns me there is that I should be able to see the IP cam on the network without port forwarding since I'm not coming from outside, and I can't even do this unless it's connected hard wire.
    I'd appreciate any insight into this that anyone might have.  I've hit the wall with what I know.
    Thanks.

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

  • Looking for replacement internal hard drives for a MacPro

    Looking to replace internal hard drives in a MacPro.  Was thinking about 3TB.  Any recommendations?

    Look in System Report for the link speed available. (Mine says 3 Gigabit.) Get drives with at least that speed; going beyond that won't get you any more performance.

  • Studio Monitors - what to look for...

    I'm going to say this right now - I'm NOT asking "hey, whats the best studio monitors I can get for x dollars." That's not what I'm interested in.
    What I AM interested in is what TO look for, and what NOT to look for in buying a new set of stereo monitors.
    I've decided I'd like to upgrade my studio monitors. I'm mixing on a pair of Event TR8 XL monitors - they're great, but i know there's better out there. I spent about $600 on the pair.
    At this point, my limited knowledge of monitors only allow me to assume that more expensive means better, but I don't understand WHY, or what to look for. So, my question is this. What is more money buying me? Are there brands that are more or less reputable than others?
    I'm really looking for general, or specific, advice on shopping for new monitors. Help me make an educated decision, there are too **** many monitors out there to choose from.
    For what it's worth, I'd like to keep it under 1k. I'm interested in active near-fields, good for mixing, with decent clarity and few gimiks. Granted, nothing beats getting into a GC and listening to a few (which I intend to do in the next day or two), but I need a little more to go on when I take a look at these in person and listen to some of my mixes on them.
    Thanks!
    Chris

    To add to the previous poster, I have a pair of old NS10's and I use them because I'm used to how they sound and how their sound translates to several other of my references, i.e. my SET/Bottlehead listening system, my car CD player, my table radio. One reason a studio owner would buy say Genelecs or Mackie HR 824's is because they have become somewhat of a standard and like the NS10's of 15 years ago, people know what they're getting once you're used the way mixes translate from them to other systems. That being said, get the Mackies, or Dynaudio BM5A's. Both those seem to be widely accepted and studio proven. That's a good place to start.

  • What to look for in an external monitor

    I am in the process of changing my editing system to handle hd. I am using a 24" imac 2.4 Intel Core 2 Duo. With my sd set up I used a Sony dv/dvcam deck and a JVC professional 13" Monitor. I am purchasing the new JVC gy-hm100u camcorder when it is released in April. I am somewhat confused about having an external monitor hooked up to my system for viewing my FCP projects. (1) What should I look for in the external monitor. Do I want a computer monitor or an HD TV? Once I purchase the external monitor/tv can I get rid of my SD JVC monitor all together. I don't want to spend a lot but I want to make sure I get a monitor with the right specs. (2) What happens if I want to use past dv footage in a new project shot in hd. I do a lot of corporate projects which require the use of old interviews as part of the new productions. Am I going to have an issue doing this? Thanks in advance for any help.

    To view HD variants, you'll need a 3rd party card.
    You are severely limited with an iMac. Your only real choice is a Matrox MXO driving a 24" Dell or older 23" Apple Cinema Display.
    While you can use an AJA ioHD to drive a HDTV, you'll need to connect it via FW800. This is a problem as no other devices can be on the same bus and, since all firewire ports on an iMac are on the same bus, it won't work.
    I would not dispose of the Standard Def monitor. If you work with SD material, you'll still need it. HDtvs are lousy devices for monitoring SD.

  • Any suggestions for what to look for in a good production monitor?

    I'm in the market for a production monitor and I'm looking at B&H's online catalogue now. Any tips on what to look for and if anyone has any recommendations or favorites? Thanks.

    it would help if you could determine a budget and then shop for models within or slightly above that budget.
    basically, some necessary items are switchable aspect ratio, underscan/overscan and then some sort of blue check for proper chroma and phase calibration. some monitors have a gray scale blue check which i think completely blows. it's better to have a monitor with viewable red, blue and green guns as the blue gun is more accurate for calibration than a grayscale blue check feature. also, there are other diagnostic functions that are viewable by using the red or green guns to view color bars.
    some other nice features to have are horizontal/vertical delay, sdi inputs, hd-sdi inputs.
    it's been mentioned in the last larry jordan newsletter than the crt monitor is going the way of the dinosaur and now sony and panasonic are marketing lcd products only. i think this is a very sad trend. as a freelance video operator/camera shader, i am of the opinion that lcd monitors are horrible; they hurt my eyes and the color rendition isn't as accurate as a crt. leitch is now manufacturing an lcd scope which is just terrible to behold. the black area of the vectorscope is a huge, amorphous blob of white light that shows no signal detail whatsoever.
    i don't know what to make of larry's statement as a quick check of the sony business website reveals only bvm crt's in their product lineup, no more pvm series. i haven't looked at the panasonic product catalog yet.
    although the sony pvm L5 that shane mentioned is a quality product, to my eyes, i would get an ikegami monitor but you'll find that the superior imaging of the ikegami also has a superior price point.
    one last point, don't buy an used monitor from ebay, you don't know where it's been or how it's been treated. give jvc monitors a fair shake as well, not a bad product for the price, no matter what their reputation is.
    good luck.

  • Looking for Mini DVI to DVI direct into monitor

    I currently have that adapter that connects the mini DVI out of the MBP into the existing DVI cable of the monitor. I'm really not love'in that adapter and it's kind of clunky so what I'm looking for is a cable that goes from my mini DVI direct to my monitor DVI socket. Any ideas where I can buy such a cable?

    If you have a unibody MBP, it doesn't have a mini-DVI video-out; it has a mini-Displayport. If that's what you have, here's what you want:

  • Looking for 27" monitor or larger under $350

    Looking for (2) 27" monitor or larger under $350 each. It will be a dual monitor for a new build. Used mostly for PP cs 5.5   Win 7, 64 bit
    1920/1080 of course.
    Video card will be:
    ASUS ENGTX480/2DI/1536MD5 GeForce GTX 480 (Fermi) 1536MB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
    Model #:ENGTX480/2DI/1536MD5
    Item #:N82E16814121373
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121373
    What monitors can you recommend?

    Ouf! A 27" monitor at that price? I hope it's just for your workspace and not to monitor and color corect your footage. If you're only looking for a 1920x1080 display, there are tones. I can't vouch for them, as I'd never get a 1920x1080 that is more then 24". But for 2560x1440 and up, they usually start at more then $800. If your looking for 1920x1080, you'd better get a great quality 24" IPS at that price.
    But it all depends on what you want to do.

  • Looking for Quality 3rd Party Monitors

    We have an office of 15 or so Macs and are slowly moving to dual display.
    We are replacing our 27 inch Macs with 21.5 inch - then with a 2nd monitor.
    Can anybody recommend any top quality third party monitors?
    a)  That have a resolution that doesn't look average next to a Mac
    and
    b)  The actual look and athsetics of the monitor doesn't look crappy next to a Mac
    (I guess "a" is probably slightly more important than "b")
    Am looking for an external monitor of around 21, 22, 23 or 24 inch
    Thanks guys

  • Looking for an elegant dual monitor auto-configure solution (SOLVED)

    I am currently using XFCE becuase Gnome and KDE are both too heavy for my weak little laptop with intel onboard graphics.  The number one thing I miss is auto-detect and configuration when I plug or unplug my monitor.
    I can't find anything that works automatically in an elegant way, the only thing I can do is poll the system every second.  There appears to be a way to make a udev rule but that is a little bit out of my depth.
    My current solution is below, does anybody have a suggestion for something more elegant?  It would be awesome if there was something in the AUR.

    Thanks very much for pointing me to inotify.  This is exactly the type of solution I was looking for!  I wasn't too excited about creating some udev tool.  Here is the script using inotify:

    export MONITOR2=/sys/class/drm/card0-VGA-1/status
    while inotifywait -e modify,create,delete,open,close,close_write,access $MONITOR2;
    dmode="$(cat $MONITOR2)"
    do
    if [ "${dmode}" = disconnected ]; then
    /usr/bin/xrandr --auto
    echo "${dmode}"
    elif [ "${dmode}" = connected ];then
    /usr/bin/xrandr --output VGA1 --auto --right-of LVDS1
    echo "${dmode}"
    else /usr/bin/xrandr --auto
    echo "${dmode}"
    fi
    done
    I am marking this as solved.  If you have more critique or suggestions I'd be open to improve the script.

  • Screensaver on Second Monitor says "Looking for pictures..."

    My MBP just came back from getting a new logic board due to the video card packing it in. Now it won't show any pictures on my 2nd monitor with the screensaver. Either I disable the 2nd monitor and it's black, or it says "looking for pictures..." while the pictures appear on the MBP screen only. It used to run both screens with screensaver and was brilliant... And in the screensaver preferences, the test works fine. Weird...
    HELP! (please)

    Workaround: Create an alias of the photos folder in the iPhoto library. Some users have had success by creating an alias of the "originals" folder that's inside the iPhoto library. To do this, locate the iPhoto library (usually in the "Pictures" folder), and right click on it and select "Show Package Contents". Then select "originals" folder and create an alias for it and move the alias to another location outside of the library. After this, open the "Screen Saver" system preferences and select "Choose Folder" from the "Screen Savers" list, selecting the alias as the pictures folder. NOTE: This can also be done with a subfolder within the "originals" or any other folder of pictures within the iPhoto library.
