Mock RFP for SUN network management tool, desperate 4 help, just need specs

OK, I have a project that in essence is a mock Request for Proposal (RFP), I play as an intern, & our instructor roleplays the manager we need to convince. The different network management tools that were available were for example; HP Openview, Cisco Works, Sniffer....& I of course chose SunNet. We need to gather information on the tool, then turn around & design a relatively simple network from the specs that were given, & finally discuss how the management tool's abilities could benefit the (mock) company...power point presentation & all.
Here it is from the homework sheet given to us...."These products will need to be useful in a 5000 node network that has four main locations that are primarily Ethernet. There is a legacy 100 nodes of Token Ring attached to a mainframe. Cisco or Foundry routers connect the Four main locations, with swiches employed. Other connections to these sites are done via DSL or ISDN. Additional considerations are wireless communications, VOIP & Content delivery systems.
I know this is a lot & I'm not asking for someone to do all this for me, just simply provide any information you know about Enterprise management tools 2.0 or 3.0,or anything you may feel better suits my needs, as the links I have surfed about them give little to nothing about specifics that I need to make any argument. If you have any links send them...if you have anyting in hard copy I will pay for postage... I need to get this done & have little time as I go to school & work full time at Motorola (but only as a contractor), so I'm starting to choke & need help....any u can give is so very appreciated....& sorry to make this request a publishable novel here on the board, but thats what it is. Thanks again......Mark

A good solution. Liked it very much. Can you please make it a technet blog for others.

Does anyone know if Cisco has a free network security audit tool?

Does anyone know if Cisco has a free network security audit too

No there is no free network security audit tool but you can using any of the commercial and open source tools for the same purpose

Issues configuring network-ups-tools with Powerware 5110

Been using Arch for about 24hrs now (It replaced RHEL5 which was running for 18mths) and I'm very impressed. Have found it very good for a new user, the extensive wiki's have been a huge help to get things going. Under RHEL I really needed to do a lot of google searching to get things working but have only had to do it twice for the same build under Arch. I was able to fix the first issue (wTorrent wiki missed install of php-sqlite) and now network-ups-tools.
I had it working 100% under RHEL so its not a device/hardware issue that I can see. But under Arch I keep getting connection lost messages after starting the ups daemon.
System can see a USB device

Sure, it was put there by the package retrieved from the default repo by pacman as was everything else. All I did was modify a few files in /etc/ups so all user/permissions etc should be setup correctly by the package?

WLS 8.1 - Entity Beans CMP - Oracle 10g Audit Tool

Hi,
We are defining the architecture of a new application on WebLogic Server 8.1 and Oracle 10g.
We are thinking in using CMP Entity Beans and we need to integrate our system with Oracle Audit Tool.
Can anybody give us some information about this issue ?
Thanks,
Javier Cano

I really don't see the point of using CMP with an expensive, fully featured database like Oracle. MySQL or a flat file maybe. Otherwise it is just a waste of purchased resources.

Network Management tool

I am looking for a network monitoring tool that will provide me bandwidth analysis (incoming and outgoing traffic), latency, availability and anythign else that could be useful to understand how the network is doing. I know that there are a lot of costly tools out there but there are also free ones, that is what I am looking for. A tool that is easy to install, manage and use.
Any recommendations?

installation of Cacti itself is pretty easy on my opinion, on my personal experience other supportive applications was a little bit difficult since I am not expert on those area. if you have some experience or some one else able to help you with installation of (apache,mysql,php) you can accomplished your goal easily. also you can get help from cacti user forum. I am used this document as base of my installation and tweak a little bit based on my need.
once you installed cacti is very easy to manage and power full. currently I am using cacti to monitor more than 6000 interfaces from 200 different locations. if you have question down the road with installation, I will try my best to help you.

Howto - JDev 10.1.3 - Audit tools and Ant

Hi
I'm playing around with Audit tools. I want to be able to call this from Ant. One primitive method is as follows:
<target name="Audit" description="Running audit on source code">
<property name="audit" value="ojaudit"/>
<property name="profile" value="-profile MyRules"/>
<property name="project" value="test3.jpr"/>
<property name="output" value="-output d:\result.xml"/>
<exec executable="cmd.exe" os="Windows XP" >
<arg line="/c ${audit} ${profile} ${project} ${output}"/>
</exec>
</target>
With results like:
Audit:
[exec] Oracle JDeveloper 10g Early Access Audit 10.1.3.0.3.3412
[exec] Copyright (c) 2003-2005 Oracle. All Rights Reserved.
[exec]
[exec] Audit completed: 1 violation, no exceptions, 2 documents, 3 seconds
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 3 seconds
But then I'm unable to handle the result - unless I parse the output file. I want the Ant build file to fail if ojaudit find errors. Is this possible?
I know the PMD extension exist but I really like the Jdev Audit stuff - but I need an interface to Ant to make it really useful: We have a build tool which build on every SCM check in. I would like the JDev Audit be part of that process so that source code problems (audit, metrics) are handles in the same process as well.
By the way JDev 10.1.3 is great...
johnny

No not really (thanks anyway). The link shows basically the same as my input except for the better formatting of the output.
Both my and the example given both uses the Ant <exec> tag which start ojaudit from the command line. The problems still exist because I would like Ant to know if something was reported and the stop the Ant build process. A kind of "failOnValidationError".
PMD has this (example below shows and Ant tag called pmd which is part of the PMD system.
<pmd printToConsole="yes" failOnRuleViolation="on">
Can ojaudit also do something like this? Or is there a way Ant can "scan" the result from the audit process and take the appropriate action?

FWSM auditing tool

is there any best FWSM and ASA auditing tool which does'nt impact the firewall functioning

If you need to monitor only the users activity and check files (and binaries) integrity, you can use what we call File Integrity Checker, like Tripwire, AIDE, Samhain .

Switch: 2960,3750,4500,4900M
ASA
I am mainly doing the audit on this perspective:
Vulnerablities
Perfomance
Bittleneck
Pls share some docuemnt/ppt/guidelines
Br/Subhojit

Hi,
there are many tools which you can use for doing the above task.
There is no generalized format or documents which you can find
if you want to do Vulernability Assessment:- Use Nipper Studio
If you want to do the Performance:- Use Manage Engine or Solar winds which usually works on SNMP based data collection.
Manageengine comes with IP SLA feature which test the SLA for the link and performance which can help you finding the Bottle neck.

Any network discovery tool that supports CLI/CDP?

May popular network discovery tools out there (such as WhatsUp Gold, Solarwind) are based on SNMP. Even though they claim to support SSH/Telnet, but they didn't seem to work the way I thought.
What I'm expecting is a software that mimic the way a human being do on discovering a swtich network:
1) Get to the CLI of the 'seed' switch
2) Do a "show cdp neighbor detail"
3) Look at the entries that have IP address
4) Telnet/SSH to that IP and repeat step 1-3 above
Ideally, the software can cycle through a credential list in case different credentials are needed on different devices.
The closest I can found is "NetBrain". But it seems to be an overkill for light use. I could have written some VB Scripts along with SecureCRT to achieve this. But want to check before reinventing the wheel.
Thank you!

I think that all the relevant information from CDP/MAC/ARP etc. is available through SNMP, so there is no need to control a login-session and invest much brain in parsing the output. Especially if you think about that the outout could be different after an image-upgrade.
Beside of that, a good tool that also uses CDP for discovery is Netdot, or if I understand it right, the underlying software netdisco.

What is needed to network 2 computers using Airport card

I know I need an airport card in my eMac, but is there any other cards that have to be in the computer? I want to network my eMac with an iMac using a DSL line. The eMac will be downstairs and the iMac will be upstairs. I'm waiting for delivery from Apple of the iMac. It has everything built in that is needed to network but my eMac doesn't. To make my eMac wireless is all I have to buy is an Airport Card and a Wireless Gateway for the iMac which is the computer connected to the DSL modem and Wireless USB adapter with connects to the eMac? What type of Airport Card do I need to buy for my eMac (model #'s etc.) It is the card that inserts above the super drive in the front of the computer. Is there any software that is needed to install Airport?

I am also doing some configuration changes (we have one Imac and two eMac's)
but one eMac does not have a airport card and is hardwired (ethernet) to the high speed cable modem then a apple airport. One Imac and the Emac with a airport card work fine, it is a bit tricky finding the correct airport card (or airport extreme card if you have a ATI graphics card (use about the mac/system profiler then click on more to see if you have a graphics card (which affects which airport card you need, there are alot of resellers on the net so you should find what you want.
If in doubt there is a free program mactracker which provides data on every mac made (available off off versiontracker.com (free site just register) it will guide
you on the type of card needed. I was quite amazed at the amount of different spec eMac's made in their relativealy short history.
Macwireless.com does sell eMac cards (for two models) but also antenna type
or flash drive appearing USB based wireless connectors that may help.
I found the mactracker program helpful (alot) as alot of web sites provide some vague info and I would hate to se you get stuck with a non returnable card.
The actual card install does not look hard (its done through the cd rom drive door.
I am not sure why we did not get a airport card for ours when we bought it.
Wish I did as it would have saved some $ (maybe) and surf time making sure I find the right one.
We did have a antenna wireless antenna for a "green" Imac (long gone) and it ran on OS9 but it was finicky when we had the airport base station upstairs
and the Imac and antenna in the basement (about 50-75 feet)
Best of luck
Hope this helps, I am not a expert, the serial number on the cd drawer will
nail down the model you have and what you need.
We have been working adding a laser printer and airport express and the two macs with cards work fine but the Emac with no card can not be set up yet. The laser printer will sure save on ink!

TS5376 For about 4 months now I have been getting an Apple I-Tunes update message but when I try to install it, the program stops and refuses to install it saying I need to go to tools and manually install. the support page says:1. Remove iTunes and relat

Dear Windows support personel,
As part of my message reads above; I keep getting an i-tunes update message and when I click on the OK to download it, I get an error message saying there was a problem and I need to go to Tools>manual download. Well, I don't know how to do that even though I gave it my best try. I went to the support sight and it had the following message;
1. Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order. Then, restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components, may have unintended affects.
If you encounter an error while uninstalling, try repairing the affected component:
I don't know if I should do that since I'm not PC savey. Could you help me by doing the work on my pc for me? I'd be most apprieciative if you'd help me in this manner.
Sincerely,
Christine Bocker

Do i need a network card to install and run a local java web server

Friends,
Do i need a network card in my computer to install and run a local Java Web Server or any Web Server.

network cards are only for connecting equipment together... you can set up a webserver without any more equipment than you have already! Indeed Tomcat... BUT you would be better off with apache for production stuff. It depends what you need to serve... if its mainly static pages (i guess it probably isn't) then apache will be enough by itself; but if you need to serve dynamic pages (JSP, Servlet blah blah) then you will need tomcat. Tomcat has it's own webserver and its perfectly ok for testing or low-load stuff, but you can integrate with Apache (a moderately compex task, but do-able, see tomcat-user forum off of apache site) for greater stability, and you don't have to show the port in the URL... Don't set up a webserver on any pc that contains stuff you don't want hacked into... it becomes very succeptible when the service is up...

Need help with Patch Tool in CS5

I am having a problem using the patch tool in Photoshop CS5. I click on the Patch Tool and select the Source option from the upper tool bar. Then I circle a gray area in the background of my photo and, holding down the left mouse button, I drag the selection to a black area in the background and release the mouse button. Instead of turning the selected area black it just makes the area slightly darker than it was originally. I just don’t understand why I can’t use the patch tool and any help would be appreciated.

Thank you very much for these suggestions. Robert
