Question about network statement in OSPF and BGP

The network statements in OSPF and BGP can be used to advertise networks. But I'm not clear under what circumstances would make more sense to use network statements to advertise a network than by using other methods to have the network learned by other routers.
Here is an example: assume I'm running BGP on router A. I want to advertise network 10.1.1.0/24 to other BGP peers. I have a OSPF route for this network. I can do 2 things: one is to use "network 10.1.1.0 mask 255.255.255.0", the other is to do "redistribute OSPF ... route-map OSPF-INTO-BGP", and create a prefix list to permit 10.1.1.0/24.
Both would work to have this network learned by other BGP peers. But which is better for what purpose?
Thanks a lot
Gary

Hi Gary,
There is one little difference between the use of the two approaches - the route injected into BGP by using a network statement will carry an Origin attribute of IGP, whereas the route injected using redistribution will have an Origin attribute of Incomplete. Now, that is not a huge issue since you can always change that whatever value you desire both with the use of the network statement and redistribution. The important thing, however, is that in the BGP best path selection process, the Origin attribute comparison is fairly high up and will prefer a route with the attribute of IGP.
Apart from that, there is absolutely no difference between using the network statement and using redistribution with a route-map that matches exactly on the same route that you would have specified with the network statement.
I guess one advantage of using the redistribute approach is that it does not clutter up the BGP config. If you wish to add more routes, you simply add them to the prefix list so that you don't really touch the BGP config portion at all..
Hope that helps - pls do remember to rate posts that help.

  • Question about delete statement

    I have question about delete statement...
    i am performing some simple delete statement against one table..but its taking so long..How can we check whether particular delete statements actually deleting records or not..?

    Is the associated select-statement returning rows or not?
    If yes -> delete is deleting
    If no -> delete is just using CPU-cycles
    To tune the delete-statement, you have to tune the corresponding select-statement. To tune the select-statement, you want to read the thread When your query takes too long ...

  • Here's a very basic question about 2 TB external drives and Time Machine.

    Here's a very basic question about 2 TB external drives and Time Machine.
    Ihave a Mac Pro with a .75 TB and 1 TB drive.  It also has a 1 TB 2ndinternal drive.  My current external drive is too small so I'll begetting a 1.5 TB or 2 TB drive.
    Obviouslythe new larger 2 TB drive will backup everything on the Mac Prointernal drive with Time Machine.  But there will be 1 TB of space leftover going to waste.
    ShouldI partition the external drive so that the TM portion will be 1 TB andthe use the remaining extra partition for additional file backups withCarbon Copy?
    Thanks for any insights.
    I tried searching around on the new Apple discussion forum, but I find it much harder to use than the old forum I used to use.

    The problem with terabyte drives is that that a 3 TB is about as big as you can get without going into RAID territory. Ideally, a Time Machine drive should be 3 times as large as all the drives you are backing up. So, if you have 2.75 TB of internal storage, you should have 8 TB of Time Machine space.
    Of course, that is "should". If your TB drives are mostly empty, then you can get away with something 3 times the size of your used disk space. Just remember that you are pushing it. Linc is right about Time Machine needing space to work.
    It is unlikely that you have regular churn on 2.75 TB of disk. I suggest identifying which drives and folders have the most activity and excluding those drives and directories that don't change much. It would be better to archive the data that doesn't change often and keep it out of Time Machine. Then you may be able to get away with a 2 TB Time Machine drive.

    John,
    I'm not sure why you posted in the iMac forum so I'm going to attempt to get you to the correct spot. I would recommend reposting in the Time Machine Forum, this is part of the OS X forums (Leopard or Snow Leopard) because you are using Snow Leopard (your profile indicates you are) please click Apple Support Communities and type Snow Leopard. Then you can narrow the search down by clicking Refine this List.

  • Basic questions about Network Licence

    Hi,
    Before buying, I have some basics questions about the network licence of Acrobat
    As an example, if I buy 5 network licence for 20 users.
    If the 5 licence are used or if one user is outside and can't access the licence serveur, is there still some basic features available? I mean, is there a "acrobat reader" part that still allow users to read pdf?
    In the same kind of problem, if 10 users are using Acrobat just for reading pdf file and that a user now want to use acrobat to create a pdf, is there still available licence  or the 5 firsts that are just reading have take the 5 licences available?
    Thank you for your answers

  • Some questions about the integration between BIEE and EBS

    Hi, dear,
    I'm a new bie of BIEE. In these days, have a look about BIEE architecture and the BIEE components. In the next project, there are some work about BIEE development based on EBS application. I have some questions about the integration :
    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?
    could anyone give some guide for me? I'm very appreciated if you can also give any other information.
    Thanks in advance.

    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?You, shud consider OBI Application here which uses OBIEE as a reporting tool with different pre-built modules. Both 10g & 11g comes with different versions of BI apps which supports sources like Siebel CRM, EBS, Peoplesoft, JD Edwards etc..
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?Its independent of any soure. This is OBIEE modeling to create RPD with all the layers. If you build it from scratch then you will require to create all the layers else if BI Apps is used then you will get pre-built RPD along with other pre-built components.
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?BI apps comes with pre-built ETL mapping to use with the tools majorly with Informatica. Only BI Apps 7.9.5.2 comes with ODI but oracle has plans to have only ODI for any further releases.
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?User will still see old data because its good to turn on Cache and purge it after every load.

  • Questions about CIN tax procedure choice and pricing schemas

    Hi all,
    I have to implement SAP on a Indian company and I'm verifying all particularity about this country (in particular tax procedures and the great number of differents tax conditions used).
    I have two questions about tax procedures and pricing schemas. Every feedback about thse points will be appreciated.
    a) To choose tax procedure TAXINN or TAXINJ which are the elements that I have to consider?
         I have read lot of documentation about CIN implementation and Iu2019m oriented to choose TAXINN schema, but If possible I  would  to understand better which are on behalf of one choice or another.
    b) To define pricing schemas for India, after check with local users and using examples of documents (in particular tax invoice) actually produced, I have understood that taxes have to be applied on amount defined starting from price list, minus discounts recognized to customer plus surcharges eventually to bill (packing, transport,  etc.).
    Itu2019s correct for any type of taxes that tax amount is calculated on u201Cnet valueu201D defined at item level or there are exceptions to this rule?
    Thanks in advance
    Gianpaolo

    hi,
    this is to inform you that,
    a) About point 1 I know the difference between the 2 tax procedures (conditions or formulas). I also have read in others post in the FORUM that TAXINN is preferable. So I would to understand which are the advantages to choose instead TAXINJ. There are particular reasons or it'a only an alternative customizing setting?
    a.a. for give for posting the link : plese give me the advantages of TAXINJ and TAXINN
    CIN - TAXINN and TAXINJ
    b) About point 2, to define which value has to be used as base amount to calculate taxes isn't a choice, but is defined depending by fiscal requirement of the country, in this case India fiscal requirement. I know that, as Lakshmipathi
    write as answer on my question, exception could be, but it was important for me to understand if I have understood correctly the sequence of the pricing condition in the schema in "normal" situation.
    b.b. you can create your own pricing procedure for this and go ahead.
    hope this clears your issue.

    Only reminders with dates appear in the notification center - undated ones don't. Once an email has been read, it is removed from the notification center. Apple has a feedback center where you can offer suggestions.

  • A few question about iPhone OS in CS5 and CS5 in general.

    Hi,
    I'm an IT trainer and I am trying to introduce my students to programming for iPhone/iPod Touch. (They are Secondary 2 students. 14 years old) The school is using a windows computer and CS5 right now is the best for the class (Not a steep learning curve and a user-friendly program). I know about the problems over the iPhone OS in CS5 with Apple but I was told it is still available for use. Furthermore, we have no intention of bringing the apps created to the Apple Store. I've tried the trial version and before I make any purchase, I would actually like to ask a few questions.
    Is the iPhone OS in the trial version itself complete? Is there anything left out from the trial version because when I tried it, it seems fine however I did not try publishing to an iPhone due to the certificates. Is there a reason for the certificate? Is there any way around it because if there isn't do I need to get a certificate for every single student? (I'm looking at a class of 40 students.) Is the certificate available for windows platform?
    Lets say, I got myself a certificate, create a simple program and then publish it, can I immediately bring it over to iTunes and then sync? Will it work that way? I don't want it to be too tedious for the students to see the end result. I've done quite a few research and have come across people having problems bringing it into their devices. Those people mention about bringing it to Cydia and needing to jailbreak the device. The devices made available for the students are not jailbroken. Will iPhone OS with proper certification still need Cydia for use with their device? Will only jailbroken device allow a CS5 app? I hope you get what I'm trying to say. We as trainers do not support teaching students to jailbreak, so that's definitely a no-no.
    Another thing about CS5. Previously I have called customer support about the CS4 the school is using now and the problem with nested animation when publishing the animation as a video file, is this problem still in CS5? Does CS5 allow nested animation to be published as a video file? If it isn't, is there any way around it?
    Thank you for your time and patience in answering my questions.

  • Question about sql statement

    Hi expert,
    I have following sql statement, function 'hiroc_get_delta_amount1' and 'hiroc_get_delta_amount2' are separately used in select and where subclause. these two function are exactly same, except that there is a inserting log statement inside. for function 'hiroc_get_delta_amount1' , logs are supposed to write into log table1, whereas for function 'hiroc_get_delta_amount2' , logs are supposed to write into log table2. after running this sql, I got data loaded into log table2, however, there is no data loaded into log table1.
    could you please tell me why there is no data in log table2 for function
    1. sql statement;

    Are your functions using autonomous transactions?
    We also need more information about the log tables etc. as we cannot tell what the problem would be from just that query, and no data.

  • Question about 'write' statement

    Hi,
    A question on write statement.
    I have a internal table itab which has field var. I am looping at this itab and writing horizontal heading output like below.
    example on the output heading:
    (3 spaces) itab-var (20 spaces) itab-var (20 spaces) itab-var.
    the coding is:
    loop at itab.
    write: 3 itab-var.
    endloop.
    I want to increase the space by 20 for every loop. How to increase this 3 by 20? Can we accomplish this way?
    Thank you for your time.

    hi krishen,
    just add 20 inside the loop , so that after every loop its value increases by 20
    for example:
    data: v  type i.
    v=3.
    do 3 times.
    write: at v(20).
    v=v+20.

  • Question about networking

    So I've gotten placed into the role of UCS manager having only a basic understanding of upkeep (currently taking training).  I've noticed some things that I'm curious about but don't know where I should look for more information.
    For one.  We were orinigally using port channels to do networking when we had a 1g connection to the core from the FI, now that we're 10g my network team told me that we wouldn't do port channel anymore and what I've got currently setup is 3 connections marked network and 1 connection marked unified uplink 2 Network in FI B and 1 Unified Uplink and 1 network in FI A. 
    This seems very incorrect to me but I also can't seem to set the unified uplink port back to a network port (I don't see that as a configure choice).
    If anyone has some good info on what I really need to be looking at that'll be great but if you've run into a similar issue that would be awesome.
    Thanks

    Sean,
    Doing a deeper research in our data base I found that  this has  no problems and actually is saying that it works as uplink port  for  FCoE and Ethernet at the same time and it should show up under the  LAN  and SAN tab as uplink ports.
    We set the role of the port to either "Network",  "FCoEUplink" or "UnifiedUplink" based on whehter the port is used as an  ethernet uplink, fcoe uplink or both.
    If you go to the LAN/SAN tab and check the interface you should be able  to see the interface as uplink for both as these are Unified Ports that  can be FC or Eth ports.
    Can you try to unconfigure the port from the  "Equipment"  tab? the LAN/SAN tabs will only let you delete/disable the  interface, and then just configure it as LAN OR SAN uplink?
    Let me know what happens.

  • Some questions about javacard 2.1.1 and smartcardio

    Hello i have some question about java card 2.1.1 and the smartcardio package.
    1.) I want to sign a message with the Signature.ALG_RSA_SHA_PKCS1 algorithm. I use the following code in the applet to sign the message:
    final static byte P1_CREATION_MODE = (byte) 0x01;
    final static byte INS_SIGN_MODE = (byte) 0x60;
    final static byte SmartCard_CLA = (byte) 0xB0;

            byte byteRead = (byte) (apdu.setIncomingAndReceive());
            signature.init(privateKey, Signature.MODE_SIGN);

    2) What is PKCS? what is the difference between
    PKCS#11 and PKCS#15??PKCS is the abbreviation of "Public-Key Cryptography Standards"
    PKCS #11: Cryptographic Token Interface Standard
    See http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=2133
    PKCS #15: Cryptographic Token Information Format Standard
    http://www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=2141
    If you want to use yor smartcard as secure token it doesn't have to be a JavaCard.
    BTW: I don't remember a way to access PKCS#15 tokens on a JavaCard from within an oncard JavaCard program. If you want to use keys in your oncard program, you have to transfer it onto the card or generate it oncard and export the public key by your own oncard/offcard code.

  • Some basic questions about rmi registry  context  "bind" and "lookup"

    We have more processing to do than can be accomplished with a single computer. To solve the problem I've implemented a distributed computing solution using RMI. (The first time I saw RMI was about 2 weeks ago, so please bear with me!)
    The implementation is a proof of concept not a fully fleshed out system. I have one "Workunit Distributor" computer and any number of "Data Processor" computers all on the same lan segment. "Workunit Distributor" and "Data Processor" computers are both RMI client and server to each other. The "Data Processor" computers are given the ip address and name of the "Data Distributor" on the commandline when they start. They communicate their willingness to receive and process a workunit to the ""Workunit Distributor" via a RMI call. Work units are sent to available "DataProcessors" and results are eventually returned to the "WorkunitDistributor" (minutes or hours later). The model program works quite well, and appears to be capable of doing the processing we need to get done.
    But now that it seems viable, I've been asked to make it a little more scalable, flexible and self configuring. In particular, instead of one "Workunit Distributor", any number of "Workunit Distributors" should be allowed to show up or disappear from the lan at any time and the system should continue to function. I've worked out a good scheme for how this can be done, but I have a couple of questions about the RMI registry (registries?). I'm trying to keep from implementing some functionality that may already be available as a library or subsystem.
    With my current model design, each computer binds to its own registry with a unique name. For instance:
    CRDataProcessorImpl crdpi = new CRDataProcessorImpl(svr);
    Context crDataProcessingContext = new InitialContext();
    crDataProcessingContext.bind("rmi:"+hostName, crdpi);
    Currently the "Data Processors" get the info they need for a Context lookup() of the one and only "Workunit Distributor" from the commandline. And the info the "Workunit Distributor" needs to do a Context lookup() of a "DataProcessor" is passed to it from each "DataProcessor" via a RMI call.
    But in the newer (yet to be implemented) scheme where any and all "Workunit Distributors" show up and disappear whenever they feel like, the naming bootstrapping scheme described above won't work.
    I can imagine a few ways of solving this problem. For instance, having "Workunit Distributors" multicast their contact information on the lan and have a worker thread on each "Data Processor" keep track of the naming information that was multicast. Another alternative (more organized, but more complex) might be to have a dedicated host with a "well known" address and port that "Workunit Distributors" and "Data Processors" could all go to, to register or look up at an application level. Sort of a "domain name service" for RMI. But both these schemes look like a lot of work to implement , debug and maintain.
    The BEST thing would be if there was one plain vanilla RMI registry that was usable by all RMI enabled computers instead of having each computer have its own local name registry. In volume 2 of the Core Java2 book it says that every registry must be local. I'm only hoping there's been progress since the book was published and now a central rmi registry is available.
    If you have any ideas about this I'd like to hear what you know.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    ps - I don't believe web services, as full featured as it is, is a useful alternative. I'm moving 100's (in the future possibly 1000's) of megabytes back an forth for processing.

    The local bind/rebind/unbind restriction is still there and it will always be there.
    I would look at
    (a) RMI/IIOP, where you use COSNaming as a registry, which doesn't have that registriction, and which also has location-independent object identifiers
    (b) Jini.

  • A question about CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK and ORA-12154 error

    Dear all,
    I have a problem about public database link creation and I would appreciate if you could kindly give me a hand. I have the following connection parameters in my
    tnsnames.ora file:
    DGPAPROD.WORLD =
         (DESCRIPTION =
           (ADDRESS_LIST =
            (ADDRESS = (COMMUNITY=tcp.world)
              (PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=ORASR001)(PORT=1521)
           (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = DGPAPROD))
    ...Having the above mentioned parameters I can connect to this remote database directly in a SQL*Plus shell:
    $ sqlplus username/[email protected] works pretty well and the connection is established without any problem.
    Now, what I would like to do is to create a public database link to this remote database in order to avoid the user/connection switching for viewing the
    content of this database. I proceeded according to the syntax indicated in the Oracle online documentation:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_5005.htm#SQLRF01205
    Therefore I run the following in order to create a public database link
    CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK SR001_dblink CONNECT TO user IDENTIFIED BY password USING 'DGPAPROD.WORLD';Apparently there is no error and the link is created successfully. However it cannot resolve the remote host and whenever I run the following query
    (myenterprise is the name of a table in that remote database)
    SELECT *
    FROM myenterprise@SR001_dblink
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specifiedWhat causes this problem?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kind Regards,

    You must have defined DGPAPROD.WORLD in tnsnames.oar on server where you DB is runnig.Hello there,
    Thanks a lot for this nice solution. In fact I had to add the connection parameters into the tnsnames.ora file of the server on which the link was created (not the tnsnames.ora of my oracle client stored on the localhost)
    After a bit googling I found another solution that allows to create the database link:
    CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK SR001_dblink CONNECT TO user IDENTIFIED BY password USING '(DESCRIPTION =  (ADDRESS_LIST =  (ADDRESS = (COMMUNITY=tcp.world)
    (PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=ip_adresse)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = GPAPROD)))';Thanks a lot for your help!
