MDS FC Port mode for UCS connectivity

Hi,
A little question on admin mode of the MDS switch port which is connected to a UCS Fabric Interconnect.
The switch is a MDS 9509 running SAN OS v3.3, we have enabled NPIV on the MDS switch. Currently the port's admin mode is 'auto' and its operational mode is 'F'.
Therefore is it safe to change the admin mode to 'F' or is it better to keep 'auto' as it is.
Cheers,
Kisanka

Thanks Jeramy. Since the final operational mode is F, is it safe to administratively set the mode to 'F'

Enabling shared cache mode for SQLite connections?

SQLite supports shared cache connections which provides more granular write locks among multiple connections allowing for greater concurrency across connections within a single application. http://www.sqlite.org/sharedcache.html
This could be very useful for applications that open multiple async connections to perform updates to different tables.
Is there any way that an AIR application can get access to the shared cache connections?
Thanks,

VPN ERROR 619 :: A connection to the remote computer could not be established, so the port used for this connection was closed

I have been searching endlessly for this issue. Every time I try to connect to a VPN connection I get the error above. Thank you for any relevant input concerning this matter. My NIC is Qualcomm Atheros and I'm in Win8.1 x64.

everything normal before?
is there any changes before this issue happen?
turn off your antivirus and firewall, update the latest VPN client software, if still not working go to security settings and change the VPN type automatic to PPTP. And also change data encryption configuration to Optional and select CHAP & MS-CHAP v2.
If still not working try with other internet connection and try to contact your VPN provider

How can i get the port used for https

Hi All,
does aynbody knows how can i get in the portal the port used for https connection, cause the link send by e-mail notification, when user has been invited in a room doesnt work...

Hi Karol,
by navigating to:
Content Administration -> Collaboration Content -> (Room Administration -> Related Topics) -> Configure Backend Properties for Rooms
you can change the Webprotocol to http:// and set server port to 50000 (default port).
To see the SSL Port you can go in the Visual Administrator to Services -> "HTTP Provider Services".

Port Disable for traffic flowing only one direction

Hi,
We use some Catalyst Express 500 and ESW-520 in our company.
But with the Catalyst Express 500 we have problem that we can't arrive to explain.
Some Gi port turn disable with this log error message :
Description: Gi1: This port is disabled because the traffic is flowing only in one direction. The cause might be incorrect cabling.
Recommendation: Make sure that cable is properly connected to the ports. For fiber connections, ensure that the transmit and receive fibers are connected correctly. Disable and Enable the port.
For the recommandation the cable is right, we change it and we change the switch by an other and the probleme continue.
If we change with a ESW-520 the problem don't arrive, but we can't change all our old switch for moment.
Any idea about this problem?

Hi Guys,
Thank you all for your help. The packet was being dropped on the "implicit rule", that means that the packet was not finding an ACL to match.
I checked the ACLs that the VPN Wizard generates by itself when used to configure an IPSec connection, and the ACLs where correct and "before" the implicit rule . (They are called by default outside_cryptomap_"number")
It seems that since I am not using "sysopt connection permit-vpn" I have to add the same ACLs to the "Local Network" interface (VPN_LAN).
Since there was inbound ACLs related to the VPN_LAN interface, the firewall jumped directly to the "implicit rule".
So the result is that I have two times the same rules first inbound on the VPN_LAN and second on the default outside_cryptomap ACLs.
Greetings,
Daniel

Create port channel between UCS-FI and MDS 9124 (F Mode)

Dear Team,
We were trying to create port channel between UCS FI and MDS 9124
But the port channel not getting active in F mode on MDS 9124
FI is in FC End Host Mode
We have enabled FC uplink trunking on FI
We have enabled NPIV on MDS
We have enabled trunk on MDS
FI and MDS in default VSAN
To check we changed the FI mode to FC Switching mode and port channels became active but in E mode
when we enabled FC uplink trunking on FI and FC Switching mode port channels became active in TE mode
but in both the above cases showflogi database shows WWPN of SAN alone not showing any from FI.
How to achive this?
Have read that no need to change the swicthing mode to FC Switching mode and keep as FC Endhost mode
SO how to achieve Port channel with F mode in MDS and FI ( Mode showing as NProxy)
Does it has to do anything with MDS NX-OS version? (https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2179129)
If yes how to upgrade as license for ports came along with Device and we do not have any PAC/PAK or license file as it came
with license
Also we have seen 2 files availabe for download (m9100-s2ek9-kickstart-mz.5.2.8b.bin and m9100-s2ek9-mz.5.2.8b.bin) which to use
Thanks and Regards

Hi Jo Bo,
what version of software if your MDS running?
On your UCS do connect nxos and show inteface brieft and look at the mac address.
it is possible that you might be hitting the bug below. if this is the case you might need to upgrade the firmware on your MDS.
Add MAC OUI "002a6a", "8c604f", "00defb" for 5k/UCS-FI

FC Port Channel between UCS and MDS.

Hi All,
I am new to Cisco Fabric Concepts. In my enviornment i have a F port channel(8 Port Group) created on MDS 9513 switch and this Fport
channel is connected to Cisco UCS 6296 FI. The Cisco UCS Blade servers are connected to the Fabric Interconnect .
On MDS NPIV is enabled.
Can anyone explain the below questions.
1. Why do we create an F port Channel Group and connect it to the UCS FI? Is this something similar to Brocade Edge to AG Switch Connectivity.
2. How to configure F port Channel Group in MDS . Can anyone explain with an example.
3. Do we need to make any Configuration on UCS FI ports for server connectivity and Channel port Connectivity if yes what are the steps required to
do the same.Does the WWPN shows up in the FLOGI Database if the connectivity and configuration looks good in UCS FI and MDS.
4. What happens when a VSAN on MDS switch is added to the Port Channel.
Thanks and Regards,
Santosh surya

1. Why do we create an F port Channel Group and connect it to the UCS FI? Is this something similar to Brocade Edge to AG Switch Connectivity.
F port channel is proprietary; therefore any such F port channel between UCS FI and Brocade doesn't work.
2. How to configure F port Channel Group in MDS . Can anyone explain with an example.
see eg.

flogi database is on the MDS, not FI; there are however UCS CLI commands, like "show npv ...."
4. What happens when a VSAN on MDS switch is added to the Port Channel.
If its not created on UCS, it will just not become the status "up"

Port speed for ISL's and SP's , Hosts (MDS 9513)

Is there any recommendation/best practise for
1) setting port speed ie choose Auto or hard code eg 2gb, 4gb wrt b/w available ?
2) ratemode ie dedicated or shared ?
For ISL's And Storage processors/Controllers and hosts
Thanks,

For ISL's, if the line card is gen2, it must be configured as dedicated. For the port mode, I would recommend that you hard code the mode to E. I also like to code the speed on ISLs so that there is no chance that they would negotiate to a slower speed. IE: you don't want to have a 2GB link negotiate at 1GB.
As for storage controllers, depending on the fan in ratio, I would recommend hard coding them to the device speed, and if the port-group has the bandwidth available, make them dedicated.
As for hosts, they should be on the shared port, and I would leave them as port mode = auto. This way they can negotiate F or FL. You might want to configure a 'maximum allowable auto speed setting'.
IE: if your hosts have 2GB HBAs, and are plugged into a 4GB capable port, they will never negotiate to 4GB...so why have the MDS think it needs to keep some bandwidth for that port (in shared mode). I forget the command, but there is way to set auto-max for the port speed on shared ports.
Hope this helps,
Mike

My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

My iMac suddenly no longer connects to wifi network when in KIOSK (username) mode, and only connects when as ADMINISTRATOR mode. Its strange because the iMac has been working fine in KIOSK mode for over a year until 2 days ago.

One of the memory cards was indeed faulty, and the other completely fine
Thanks very much for all your help!
Although there is one little thing that I've noticed. The iMac works properly, but I tried to software update to see if that may help my Minecraft sound issue (as I still don't think only having 2GB instead of 4GB would cause such a problem) but the software update application won't work. Running the "Software Update" from the apple menu on the toolbar gains no response, nothing happens. If I run the software update from system preferences, the application icon appears for a second, then disappears (as in the blank app. icon, the blank canvas with the pencil, pen and ruler in the bottom right corner). It does this every time I try to run it. It did work when the computer was crashing, but this started when on one of the occasions I ran the app. while it was crashing. Since this occured during the crashes, and still occurs now, I'm wondering did something simlar happen minecraft, as it's sound disappeared during the crashes and is still gone now.
However, the computer is now working again without crashes, which is the main thing, thanks for helping me fix the issue
Edit: I would mark the topic as solved, but I'm unsure if this would lock the topic or something simlar, so I'd rather leave it open for any ideas regarding the software update and Minecraft issues I'm having

Multiple port opened for one db connection.

My java standalone server connects to sql server via MS sql JDBC driver(v 2.2). I saw so many port in Time_wait state to the db server in netstat. I did some search on the internet, found that this the nature of TCP/IP protocol. and we can live with it without modifying Windows config.
however, I noticed on my side, there are two ports involved for each database connection. I think this is one of the reasons I have so many ports in Time_wait state.
To me, it seems like the request to db server is done on one port, the response from db server is done on another port. is this implemented on JDBC driver layer or on sql server?
please help !!!

I saw so many port in Time_wait state to the db server in netstat. This suggests that you are not using any type of connection pooling, but instead are opening and closing connections pretty quickly, although it depends on what you mean by "many"; 10 or 100 might be a good number for a busy system, depending on your application. On some operating systems under high load, it could potentially be a problem if you are getting into many hundreds or thousands, but other issues usually drive people to using connection pools long before this issue would.
however, I noticed on my side, there are two ports involved for each database
connection. I think this is one of the reasons I have so many ports in Time_wait state.Not really. That might double the number, but the real reason is a lot of connection closes (real connection closes, not closes on a pooled connection).
To me, it seems like the request to db server is done on one port,
the response from db server is done on another port.
is this implemented on JDBC driver layer or on sql server?That is totally up to the driver vendor; there's nothing you can do about it.
please help !!!I'm not sure what you're problem really is - you might be worrying about something that isn't a problem. Is something bad happening that you're trying to fix, or did you just notice these expiring ports and start worrying about them?

Advice about FXS Port configuration for connecting to modems

Hello all,
We have not confirm the problem, but we are having reports that analog devices like USR V.92 Modems and Power meters are not connecting or dropping the connection. We have an ISR 2911 with the 4-port FXS-DID WIC (VIC3-4FXS/DID), configure to an internet SIP truck provider. The Router is running IOS 15.3(3)M2. If we connect an analog phone to the FXS port and call, voice is clear. So the question is what configuration settings should we have for FXS ports and/or dialpeers for connections to modems? Attached is the current configuration of the router.
Do we have to be worried about Codec? If so which Codec should we configure?
Any Physical FXS settings should be set?
Are my DSP setup correctly?
Again, I'm at a loss, as voice sounds good and my searches for modem connections to FXS Ports on CUCME is coming up dry. Any help would be great.
As far as the "Power Meters", we are talking substation power meters.
Thanks for any advice you can spare and your time,
Nick

Hi Amit,
No problem on the delay. Your help is very much appreciated.
You're losing me a bit. Because I don't know if your giving me dial-peer 1 as an example. 1 being just a random number. Or your telling me to change my current dial-peer 1 configuration. Which is currently a pots dial-peer:
dial-peer voice 1 pots
description POTS port 0/1/0
destination-pattern 111111111
port 0/1/0
dial-peer 1000 voip is our outbound call leg. Sorry call legs are not exactly clear to me yet. In fact they haven't been in years. :) So change my dial-peer to dial-peer voice 1 voip?
My other question still unknown to me is should we use:
fax protocol pass-through g711ulaw
Even though we are trying to use a modem and not a fax? Also this command is a dial-peer command and not a global command. So what global command should i be using?
Again thank you for your time and help,
Nick

How do I set up Full Bridge Mode for port fowarding?

How do i go about setting up Full bridge mode, for port forwarding on my Airport extreme's ? I Have two working to get coverage in my house, but I guess they need to be bridged together

For most routers, including the AirPorts, bridge mode disables both the NAT & DHCP services. Since NAT is disabled, all of the firewall ports on the AirPort are open and thus port mapping/forwarding would not be reqiured. Therefore if you configure your AirPort as a bridge, the port mapping optios will not be available.
Since you have two AirPort routers, you would only need to configure the AirPort that is NOT in bridge mode for port mapping to allow communicaton coming in from the Internet. This would typically be the AirPort attached directly to the Internet.

Ports for External Connection

Hi, i have one problem, i dont know what's ports i need to open in my modem for one user in other network connect in my network. I need to make a NAT for this, but i need to know apple remote port for external connection. And sorry for my english, bad.
thank's.

You need to open TCP and UDP port 3283 and, for ARD 2.0 and later, TCP and UDP port 5900. For encrypted file transfer (ARD 3.x), open TCP port 22. You may also need to open TCP (and perhaps UDP) 5988 and 5989, though it's not clear under what circumstances this will be necessary.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

How do I disable review mode for open assessments in Adobe Connect?

I'm running a curriculum to over 400 learners in a call centre.
All learners are already enrolled in the curriculum.
The curriculum has a future end date.
Learners are told by their managers when they are able to access the curriculum.
Learners are accessing the curriculum in small groups.
Learners are allowed one attempt at the assessment.
We are finding that learners are accessing the assessment again - purly because the can do so in review mode - and assuming that this is a second attempt.
Is there a way to disable the review mode for assessments only in Adobe Connect?

A solution was given a few years ago, but it involves editing the HTML file used to launch the assessment. The explanation can be found here: http://www.connectusers.com/forums/post/14012/#p14012

Difference between passive and active data connection mode for FTP

Hi,
Does any body have the idea of passive and active data connection mode for the transport protocol FTP.
I have one server with FTP, I have to pick the data from this FTP to XI.
What is the difference between active and passive data connection? Does XI supports both the connections?
Thanks & Regards
Katta Mohan Reddy

Hi
According to SAP Note - 821267
Q: Does the File Adapter support active data connections when connecting to an FTP server?
A: Up to and including SP14, the File Adapter exclusively uses passive data connections. Starting with SP15, active connections will be available.
Difference between active and passive,
You can definitely refer to the site mentioned by Suraj
