Network health check and configuration advise
I need to do this with a network with 200 router and switches. Does anybody have suggestion on how to approach this with software?
thanks
The Cisco product for this would be Cisco Prime LMS which is provided with purchases of Cisco Prime infrastructure. If you're brand new to network management though I wouldn't recommend taking on its deployment and configuration on your own as it is a pretty complex product and requires its own dedicated server.

Database performance health check and recommendation
Hi, I try to find this document (doc id: 1019592.6) in metalink, but couldn't find it.
Anyone has a copy of the script and can send it to me @ email: [[email protected]] ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys
i want to run oracle health check i.e
1. check security on the users , roles , privileges
2. db maintenance
3. all reports to check the databases
but the main thing is i have to use Enterprise Manager (OEM) to do all that.
we are ruining oracle 10g r2 and 11g
you help with be greatly appreciated.855161 wrote:
hi guys it's all good but you are missing a major key point.
i need to use oracle enterprise manager OEM to do database security check, health check and other critical loop wholes...What if EM is the loophole? What if it spews information to the web? What if Oracle claims something is not EM but shares the configuration?
Run this:
$ORACLE_HOME/ccr/bin/emCCR status
By default, it is collecting your Network Interface MAC accress [sic] and listing all your users into a world-readable directory. Then when you use support, you are badgered to automatically upload all the information.
Or maybe I live in some parallel universe and I just don't understand what is happening in your universe. -
i used the bt desktop pc health check and it told me that my system does not have a proper firewalll application installed. but when i checked my security centre kaspersky 2010 it said the firewall was ok. has anyone had this problem
Bt is probably either trying to get you to use some firewall they have (unlikely)
Or it just detects that you're windows firewall isn't on (likely)
If the latter is correct, you're fine anyways because both those programs have good firewalls, don't worry about it, but if you really do worry just do a Virus check every fortnight. -
A10 Network and Siebel HTTP Health Check @ Application Tier
Hello,
I have a simple question around using the A10 network appliance and performing a simple HTTP Get Health, from the third party load balance, check against the ScBroker component. For example, within the A10 we would create a check check using the following: This is for third party load balancing at the application tier. I have performed this type of health check on other competitor devices such as F5, Cisco etc.
//IP Address of Siebel Application Server/Siebel Enterprise Name/ScBroker.
When I test the below HTTP Get health check both inside and outside the load balancer (using any web browser) I receive about 15-20 errors before receiving a ScBroker Status "Ok" message. This is a older version of Siebel (8.0.0.12) and I have double checked the Connection Forward algorithm for SCBroker which is set to "LL" least laden. The only other option would be to perform a health check at the TCP (SCBroker port 2321) layer which can cause multiple LB errors and leave connections missed at the port 2321 SCBroker layer. Essentially, A HTTP Get Health check at the application layer is the way to go. Has anyone experienced this error on the HTTP Get Health check? If so, what was the resolution for the health check.Hi zryan,
Your question is not clear enough.
If you want to use create client for transporting HTTP or SMTP messages, you can utilize these built-in classes in .Net Framework:
WebClient,
HttpWebRequest Class
SmtpClient Class
If you mean you want to intercept the network messages using C# code, please note the topic in this thread:
Contributors: How to avoid aiding
the development of malicious code
.Net Framework doesn't contain built-in objects for you to automatically detect the protocol of the network message.

Hey there,
During startup of my MacBook Pro, Captive Network Assistant checks 249 different airport, hotel and other misc. WiFi hotspots. Proabaly adding a good 3 minutes to my startup time. ***? This all started while I was on extended layover at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.
I thought Captive Network Assistant was an iOS thing. No iOS devices in my home or office. Here's a portion of the console log during startup.

Looking at the times, I see this only takes a fraction of a second but my startup time is still much much longer than it ever was or should.
Does anyone have any idea on how to get rid of this? I deleted the Captive Network Assistant.app from my computer but the checking continues. It seems to be a rarely mentioned issue doing a web search, and nothing like this, although it's referred to in certain articles.
Really weird.
GreggI'd take another look at your startup log.
If you look closely, you'll see that all those log messages occurred in the space of 30 milliseconds - by comparison, a human blink takes about 150 milliseconds.
So while I don't doubt you're seeing slow startup time, I don't think CaptiveNetworkSupport is the culprit, per se.
Fortunately, since every startup event is timestamped, it should be easy enough to determine what task is taking the most time.
As for CNS, it's not just an iOS thing - it's standard in Mac OS X, too. I'm also under the impression (but can't confirm) that it only checks the networks that you've previously connected to, so check System Preferences -> Network -> AirPort -> Advanced -> WiFi and delete any networks you no longer use or expect to connect to. -
Hello, I installed my new Apple TV and successfully completed the configuration (Wireless network, Apple ID, and others) yet I am always in the Computers and Setting page… can’t move to the main page – any idea on what and how, please?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, a number of users appear to have encountered this problem. Some of these users have reported that the problem just disappears the following day or shortly after. Other users have found various other solutions to this problem.
Firstly, are you receiving any date and time errors when you turn on your Apple TV?
Check that you are properly connected to the Internet, by ensuring that you have a proper IP address and not one starting with 169. Also check that your location for the iTunes Store is set correctly, if so you might try changing it and then changing it back.
If the problem persists try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router, or if this doesn't work you might like to try a restore. -
CSS to CSM migration and http health checking
Hi All,
I hope someone can help me here.
We are migrating number of web services to new DC and I have some issue migrating load balancing from CSS 11501 to CSM module in 6509 within new environment.
Here is config from CSS:
content WS1
vip address 192.168.1.125
add service 192.168.1.105-80-web1
add service 192.168.1.115-80-web2
port 80
protocol tcp
balance leastconn
active
service 192.168.1.105-80-web1
ip address 192.168.1.105
keepalive port 80
keepalive uri "/URIDirect_Default.aspx"
keepalive method get
keepalive type http
keepalive hash "44baffe2618ba829a6b14ad9bccfdcf4"
active
service 192.168.1.115-80-web2
ip address 192.168.1.115
keepalive port 80
keepalive uri "/URIDirect_Default.aspx"
keepalive method get
keepalive type http
keepalive hash "f41469e68c42273622774ec706e3ddcf"
active
With this config CSS uses URI health check to determine whether or not the app live on the nodes of the farm (CSS checks for certain file's existing in app's home folder by checking the hash value of the file name - I beleive so). This is also handy for windows team which remove/rename checked file on server when want to remove it from web farm.
However, reading manuals for CSM I can not see http health probe checking for hash, but only for return status.
Can someone help me with how can I replicate above configuration using CSM.
Regards,
SasaSasa,
the hash corresponds to a hash of all the text contained in the html page.
This is to guarantee that the page was not modified.
This is some kind of security in case a hacker would alter your pages.
The CSM does not have this feature.
But honestly, you usually get more troubles with this option than benefits.
If the Apps team wants to have the server down while changing files, they can I guess turn off the server themselves before doing changes. And then re-enable after.

Private network and configuration?
I've had my Airport Extreme for quite awhile, but it rarely has any problems. Just recently though, it got interference and when I tried to reconnect, I realized that it didn't remember my network name or my configuration. Is that a consequence of a private network or is there some way that I can check if it's not saving my info?
I've got Tiger 10.4.11 for Intel Mac Pro and the latest update of Airport, if that helps.If you cannot remember your wireless network's name - then cable one of your Macs to one of the Base Station's LAN ports, run the Airport Admin Utility, and it will tell you.
If you also forgot the Base Station's admin password, you will need to do a soft reset per http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451 which will revert the admin password to the default "public".
Once you get control of your Base Station - don't ever configure it again as a "closed network". It provides absolutely no security, and certainly complicates your own usage of the Base Station. -
Hello,
Recently, I had a task where I needed to install a custom non-signed driver onto my Windows 8 64-bit setup. As it is known, Windows has driver enforcement policies that, as a security measure, do not allow you to install non-signed drivers.
I did not want to alter my current boot configuration so I decided to create a separate boot entry that would have driver signing policies disabled. For some reason I did not find any good source that would contain a step-by-step instruction on completing
this task, so I decided that I'd better share my experience here.
Lastly, there are multiple ways how you could turn off driver enforcement policies, but I find the way to do this via boot manager.
Here's how you can do that.
1. Press WindowsKey and type 'cmd' (without quotes) to find Command prompt, then click Command prompt icon. If you have User Account Control turned on, hold Ctrl+Shift keys pressed when clicking the icon.
This will force Windows to ask you for elevation of command prompt. Elevation is necessary for editing Boot Configuration Database (BCD), the database used by Windows boot manager to store boot settings.
2. In the User Account Control window click Yes to confirm elevation of command shell.
3. At the command prompt type
bcdedit
to list your BCD entries.
This will give you an output like:

The section that starts with Windows Boot Manager lists current settings for the boot menu. Here you find what boot entry is chosen by default, this is the one what you will boot into if you do not select any boot entry in the
boot menu.
The following record
default {current}
indicates that by default my Windows boots into configuration which I use at the moment (currently booted Windows configuration).
To find out what exactly is current configuration, look into the list of boot entries, records that contain boot loader configuration and are titled as Windows Boot Loader in the bcdedit output.
For example, the entry shown above is one of my boot configurations. This is one of the boot entries listed on the boot manager screen when I start my PC and it looks like:
Windows Boot Loader

resumeobject {a329b5cf-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}

This record has a unique GUID identifier that can be used to reference this boot entry, which is:
identifier {a329b5d0-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}
If we look at the Windows Boot Manager settings, we'll see this entry is the first in order to be displayed in the boot menu on OS start (I marked the unique bits):
displayorder {a329b5d0-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}
{a329b5cc-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}
It references my VHD drive, a virtual hard drive where my Windwos 8 setup is residing:
device vhd=[D:]\win8prowmc01.vhdx
And it also specifies that the boot manager must use UEFI BIOS extension code to access my Windows boot partition:
path \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
3. Now locate the current boot entry.
Current boot entry contains boot settings used to boot into Windows configuration to which you are currently booted. It is referenced in the list of boot entries as a Windows Boot Loader record that has the {current} keyword inside and may
look like:
Windows Boot Loader
identifier {current}

Because we are more than happy with current configuration and want to base our new boot configuration on these settings, we need to copy this boot entry ({current}) to a new boot entry.
This is done by running the following command:
C:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /copy {current} /d "No Driver Signature Check"
Parameter /d here indicates that the following sequence of characters specifies the display name for the new boot entry that we are creating. The name inside the double quotes will be displayed in the boot menu when you boot your Windows.
In other words, if you know restart your system, you'll see the new No Driver Signature Check in the boot menu.
When copied, the entry is automatically given a new GUID identifier, so upon running the command above, you'll see the following line returned (you'll have an other GUID since these are unique identifiers):
The entry was successfully copied to {a329b5d8-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}.
4. Make sure the entry has been successfully created.
Run the same bcdedit. (You may specify /enum or /v, or both /enum /v parameters at the prompt to get more detail about boot entries, but simple bcdedit is just enough to see the new entry):

The entry has been created and given a unique a329b5d8-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240 ID. It now has exactly same boot settings as the boot entry we used to boot into current configuration of Windows.
5. Modify created No Driver Signature Check entry and specify that Windows must have driver integrity checks disabled when booted using this boot entry.
Any modifications to boot entries are made using /set parameter. To indicate that we modify a specific boot entry, we must specify the GUID for the No Driver Signature Check record, which is:
identifier {a329b5d8-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}
In other words, to edit (add or change) an option for the boot entry, we need to use the following command syntax:
C:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /set GUID <boot_option> [<option_value>]
First, we must specify that we don't want integrity checks be made. This is done by adding the loadoptions option and setting it to DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS value:
C:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /set {a329b5d8-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240} loadopti
ons DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
The operation completed successfully.
6. Verify that load option has been added.
Run the bcdedit command:
Windows Boot Loader
identifier {current}
device vhd=[D:]\win8rtm.vhdx
path \Windows\system32\winload.efi
description Windows 8 Enterprise RTM
locale en-US

7. Add the option that turns on test signing mode and disables checks of driver signature.
Adding the testsigning option and setting it to ON does the trick for us:
C:\Windows\system32>bcdedit /set {a329b5d8-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240} TESTSIGNING ON
8. Now we have a boot entry that enables Windows not to do integrity checks and digital signature validation.
We check it by running bcdedit:
Windows Boot Loader
identifier {a329b5d8-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}
device vhd=[D:]\win8rtm.vhdx
path \Windows\system32\winload.efi
description No Driver Signature Check
locale en-US
loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
inherit {bootloadersettings}
recoverysequence {a329b5c3-fb29-11e1-a74d-f2c962d62240}
integrityservices Enable
recoveryenabled Yes
testsigning Yes
isolatedcontext Yes
allowedinmemorysettings 0x15000075
osdevice vhd=[D:]\win8rtm.vhdx
systemroot \Windows

nx OptIn

9. Type 'exit' without quotes to exit from command prompt, and restart Windows.
Upon booting you will be present with a new boot option to start Windows in configuration that allows you to install custom non-signed drivers.
Hope this will help anybody to create their own custom boot configurations.
Well this is the world we live in And these are the hands we're given...Hi,
Thank you for sharing the solutions & experience here. It will be very beneficial for other community members who have similar questions.

what do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?
Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
“SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
“Hi all,
I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
Can anyone help? Please?!
Thank you!!!
P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!

P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution. -

Best way to configure a network comprising WLSE and many APs ?
Hi the Cisco NetPro community,
I would like to have a discussion with you on the best way to configure a network containing a WLSE and a large amount of Access Points.
The network I want to configure comprises some subnetnorks, each comprising about 10 access points (with some advanced settings for security). It might be a quite long and boring process to set the configuration for all those, so I am looking for the quickest and easiest solution to do so.
First of all, the configuration of IP addresses have to be done on each Access Point after unpacking it. The configuration of my network comprises 1 WDS active AP, 1 WDS backup AP and the rest of infrastructure APs, that for each developement site.
I thought about several solutions :
- 1st solution could be to apply a configuration file (i.e. load the config.txt file) to each AP manually, changing some values (IP, local radius...).
But problem is that passwords can't be changed with text editor because of the passwords written in "hash".
- 2nd solution could be to configure each AP (after IP is set) using its web interface.
No more problem for hash written passwords, but this method is quite boring when surfing on menu pages of the AP web interface...
- 3rd solution, which could appear as the best solution, is to create a template on the WLSE, and to apply it to all APs.
No more boring connection to each AP, but problem are : we need to create as many templates as APs (or change some parameters each time), and we still need to set parameters directly to APs before (SNMP, SSH, WDS configuration...), in order the WLSE to manage the APs.
So, what do you think could be the best solution in order to deploy such a network with many APs ?
How is it possible to avoid (so far as we can) the configuration of APs one by one ?
Thanks a lot in advance for your consideration and your ideas !
Alexis.Well for one of my clients that had over 60 sites, we actually created a couple of templates. We created a basic template and a template for each site. You can have the ap's obtain the configuration from the WLSE, but you need to configure a DHCP option. My client did mac address reservations, but of course you need the mac address first. I guess you can also let the ap get an address and change it later. They tried doing different things, first let the ap obtain a default config and then pushing out the configuration for that site.
As for the hash, you can set the password in ascii... when you do a show run, then of cours it will be hash'd.
