Recommended switch for uc320

Since the ESW's are end of life what switch is recommended for use with a UC320w? I know it at least needs to be a 200 series, but what is the difference between the SG and SF? I do not need a POE switch or Gigabyte.
Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy
Love the 300 series product, can't say I have tried the 200 series product, but the firmware base is almost identical..
Having used the 300 series product, well I'll let Kevin Tolly, head of the Tolly group say it..
(Check out the Full Tolly reports by clicking here; )
SF and SG are acronyms for Switch Fast Ethernet or Switch Gigabit Ethernet, which relates to access ports maximum speed on the switch. Since you mention you don't need Gigabit Ethernet, why not look at the SF200 or SF300 series switches. 300 series product has more management capabilities and functionality compared to the 200 series, but these differences can be seen in their datasheets..
SF200 or preferably the SF300 series switch is the way to go on UC320W solutions. With the new free firmware version 1.1.1.8, both series switch automatically configures the voice services on the switch for both UC320W and UC5XX voice platforms.. .Check the CCA datasheet for two exceptions within the 200 series family.
A Partner resource call Smart Designs, shows validated applications tested within Cisco. The Validated Smart design for UC320W shows the ESW series switch as a preferrred switch for UC320W. But we know that the ESW switch will be the replacement by the 200 and 300 series product.
This plug and play functionality found on the 300 series switch, saves installation time and reduces the solution installation complexity to a plug and play exercise.
If the end user out grows the UC320W, all phones and switches can migrate up to a UC500 for this same plug and play functionality. .
So check out and compare the SF200 or SF300 series models at the following location;

Recommended switch for a/g/n AP

Hello! Which switch is recommended for 802.11 a/g/n 1600, 2600, 3600 series AP? Is it enought fast ethernet ports or sould we use gigabit ethernet ports switch and why? Is there network infrastructure deployment guide for cisco wireless?

And my question is should we use gigabit switch or there will be enought fastethernet because gigabit capacity will never be used at even 10%.
This kind of thinking is so "old fashion". Turn back the clock 10 years ago and I will agree with you. Nowadays, I don't think so.
I'm not going into details, but let's take 802.11n alone. With a single spatial stream, how much bandwidth can a wireless laptop push? 150 Mbps.
I have a number of 1140 APs (old, I know) which, during class days, can have a mind-staggering >80 students associated to it. Now what do you think is going to happen if the links of these APs were FastEthernet instead of GigabitEthernet.
I am also aware of the cost difference of a FastEthernet PoE switch vs GigabitEthernet PoE switch and it just doesn't cut it.
If you want/have to deploy FastEthernet switches, then I'd recommend you disable 802.11n and 802.11ac.

A/B switch for monitor?

Hey all--Please advise. I want to use a large monitor that is connected to a working G5 as a large monitor for my MBP. To avoid having to crawl under the desk to unhook the large monitor from the back of the G5 (as we do use the G5), I was hoping I could find something like an A/B switch that could sit on the desk, that could be switched over to the MBP when needed. Does something like this exist, and where might I find it?
Thanks! --d

You'd want to look for a KVM switch. They share the keyboard and mouse also. They assume you're using the same interface to connect with so you'd need an adapter for your MBP to match your G5. If you don't want to share the keyboard and mouse I recommend looking for a manual one so you don't have to use a key combo to switch displays.
Another option would be to see if your monitor has multiple inputs and the ability to switch between them. This is the rout I use between my PC (connected via DVI) and my MBP (connected via Displayport).
Frys would be a good place to look if you have one near you.
Also these are two cheaper options available online (based on reviews the quality seems good):

Recommended product for syslogging and snmp monitoring

Hi,
    We currently use KIWI syslog but can anyone recommend a better product for syslogs from Firewalls, Routers and Switches. Our current product creates a seperate text file per day per device. Ideally I would like all these to be combined (or combinable for display purposes) into one log that shows to update realtime and have the ability to filterout "background noise" - stuff we know is acceptable, as well as being able to run simple or quick searches and reports. Ideally for asbout 200+ devices.
     Am I too hopeful or is there a product out there that can do this (that also will not break my companies bank account).
     Also, recommended products for SNMP monitoring if better than we currently use would be useful - currently using Orion and SNMPc.
Regards
Adrian

Adrian,
We use syslog-ng for RHEL. It can do what you need as far as writing to files and filtering out background noise, but it is not a search/reporting tool. If KIWI does the latter, I imagine you could tell it to read from the file that syslog-ng creates.
It is open source for writing files through version 3.1.4. Later versions require licensing to write to files or if you are using a Windows OS.
http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/open-source-edition/3.1.4
Here are some other options:
Rsyslog: http://www.rsyslog.com/
Splunk: http://www.splunk.com/
Snare: http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/index.html
Hope this helps.

Recommended Design for WAAS in both Data center and Branch Offices

Hi All,
I need to purchase different appliances for WAAS, but before I decide what to purchase, I need to know exactly how I am going to put these devices so that I can know which one to purchase and how the designs will be.
My environment is as follows:
I have two core routers (ASR 1000 series) at Data center, two 6509 switches (expecting to insert the ACE module, and FW module) and the I have access switches which connects servers.
At the branch offices, I am expecting to place ASR1000 series also.
Now, I need to know the recommended designs for these WAAS appliances so that, I can know in advance what to purchase(i.e. how many WAAS CM, Core WAE, and Edge WAE).
Any input will highly be appreciated.
Thanks,

If you purchase the Standard Edition, your license supports:
One installation of Cisco Security Manager on one Windows-based server.
The configuration or management of 5 devices (in the Standard-5 option) or 25 devices (in the Standard-25 option). This excludes Catalyst 6500 and 7600 Series devices and their associated service modules.
If you purchase either the Standard-5 or Standard-25 license, you cannot purchase an incremental device license. Your license is fixed at either 5 or 25 devices.

Router/Switcher for G4/XP netwoork

Pardon my ignorance but I need to connect my G4 iMac with an XP box in a room directly below. I previously had a small D-Link router that burned up but I could only share internet, no files desoite file sharing being turned on. Is there a recomendation? Should I get a router/switcher, just a switch or an ethernet hub?
Appreciate the advice. Thanks!
D
G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Hi Dennis:
A switch or hub will allow you to share files between each other on a LAN. A Router will allow you to connect your LAN to a WAN (Generally, an ISP such as cable or DSL).
If you are connecting your machines to the internet, I would recommend a Router. It offers NAT routing which is one of your best firewalls that can be used from the internet.
Any router can be used as a switch as well.
Bottom line, I'd recommend going for a wireless router, that way it will offer you the option of "Growing" into your new network device. They are generally inexpensive and can find one for around $60 or so. (The Linksys WRT54G works well)

Recommended CoPP for 4500

I need to apply some CoPP on 4500. I expected I'll just turn on CPP rules like on Cat3k or apply predefined profile like on Cat6k or N7k. But when I looked at CoPP chapter of the 4500 configuration guide at
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/lan/catalyst4500/XE3-6-0E/15-22E/configuration/guide/xe-360-config/cntl_pln.html
I found there is macro that creates class-maps but policy map without any action statements hence doesn't policing (almost) anything.
Are there any Cisco recommended rate values for CoPP on 4500-X (Sup7/7LE) or is there any Cisco recommended template for policy map with predefined policy action statements for CoPP on 4500?
Thank you.

Any suggestion? Thanks.
Just refreshing...

Remote deployment switches for Jabber 9.2.2

Are there any installation switches for remote install via the MSI/DMG?
I will be pushing this backage via Dell KACE K1000 appliance and would like to configure default options for the users during the install/upgrade such as Disabling (or 'unchecked' following initial sign-on) the Docked Window, configuring Phone Accounts, WebEx Meeting and application Integration settings.

application integrations setting mostly get pushed out through the profiles on CUPS that get pushed out as soon as the user logs in.
I can't help you out with all the switches you asked for but, you can starting using:
msiexec.exe /i "\\lsrftufs1\ict\Networks\Voice\Jabber\Jabber 9.2.2\CiscoJabberSetup.msi" TYPE=CUP DOMAIN=somedomain.com.au LANGUAGE=1033
This will at least use auto discovery of the presence server if you use an SRV record _cup._login.somedomain.com.au
so at least your useers wont have to type in a presence server name or IP.

I downloaded a free App. called ThaiPad from Bangkok Post newswpapers. I downloaded on my PC running Windows 7. The Bangkok Post recommended itunes for downloading. I completed the download but it would not open. I assume that this App was for iPad or iPod etc as the Bangkok Post wants to sell content, after the free content, via itunes store I assume. Can someone tell me if I can open this in Windows 7 and if so how. Thanks.

Any app that you download using iTunes is for use only on iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch, and not on a PC. It's possible they have a separate app for PC, as some companies do, but the one you downloaded via iTunes definitely will not open in Windows 7.

Time Capsule - Can it run as DHCP router, create a wireless network and plug into switch for wired network all at the same time?

I have a closet with Wired connections from all over the house terminating in it. I also have the internet modem and a switch in this closet. My old setup was a netgear in the closet creating a wireless network and also feeding the Ethernet ports all over the house. In my room, I had an Airport express (a month old) bridging the wifi to make the wifi network larger. The Express was hard wired from the wall and my mac mini was using it's wifi (printer was plugged into other ethernet port). Everything was working great.
Fast forward to last week. My Netgear died. So, I bought a time capsule. My plan was to move the Express to the closet and have it create the wifi network and also then run cat 5 cord from express to the switch to feed all the wired wall plugs. Reset it and set it up to create the wifi network as well as DCHP NAT. Wireless was running great on it. Then I plugged in the Cat 5 in the second Ethernet Port to the switch. Wifi stopped working and none of the computers would connect using wired connections either. They would see a 'network' but nothing would work. I would unplug the Cat 5 feeding the swtich and the wireless would start working again. Plug the Cat 5 back in and wireless would stop.
So I thought I would try the Time Capsule in the closet and see if I could get it to work. Pretty much the same thing, except at this point I figured out if I went in and told it NOT to create a wifi network the wired portion worked fine and all the wired computers in the house worked fine. Of course, then I didn't have Wifi.
I'm not clueless when it comes to networking, but I can NOT figure this out! Can either the Time Capsule or Express Create the wifi network AND also feed the data to the switch for all the wired computers?
To simplify this is what I want my end result to be. I prefer the Time Capsule to be the wireless connection extender, but if I have to have the Express do it, I'm fine with that.
1. Express in the closet creating the wifi network as well as feeding the data to the wired connections via my switch.
2. have the Time capsule in my room at the opposite end of the house plugged into the hard wired connection to extend the wrieless network as well as have wired connections such as my printer and my Mac Mini.
If I can get #1 to work, I don't think I'll have any problems with #2. Help!

I have an equally complex setup with a managed switch actually but I have never seen the TC have this kind of issue.
What I do notice is you have changed the TC from defaults.. you are using a non-default IP range.
I have run across issues like this where people move things from default.
I would like you to start over.. factory reset the TC. That will set it back to default router mode.
Do the min setup on the TC..
1. Change all names from what you were using. That includes the TC name and wireless name/s
Make them short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric because that is the correct way to network. Apple default names with spaces and apostrophes are fundamentally bad.
2. With just the TC plugged into the switch.. and a single computer connected by ethernet. Power cycle the whole network.. this allows the switch to clear all the old MAC address.
3. Test on the computer just ethernet. Turn the wireless off.
The computer must use dhcp and must get an ip from the TC.
It has to get the correct Router.. ie Gateway.. I wish apple could stick with proper network terminology.
And it must get same address or valid DNS server address/es.
If it fails.. please plug ethernet directly to the TC.. bypassing the switch.
You should get the standard IP addressing and internet connection.
If not please post the screenshot from the Mac of the network preferences showing the ethernet setup.
I need to see what address it does get. I need you to make sure the ethernet is the TOP of the list. So rearrange the order of network connection. With the airport off it should just go to the top of the list.
If it appears to be working .. but a browser cannot connect, open a terminal and ping an internet address.
Ping the actual gateway address the ISP gives you and ping the ISP dns address.

Thanks, A Brody. Don't know what the PRAM battery is. Here are more details of the fault ... Although I've had the iMac for 5 years this may be the first time I've tried copying a video recording onto the DVD drive (I've made lots of CD copies without a problem). The folder and files all seem to be reproduced in identical order on the disc but my domestic DVD player cannot make sense of the recording, unlike the original source DVD from which the files originated. The drive has always been noisy but I've never assumed it shouldn't be! Does this fit your PRAM battery theory? If so, please explain more. Thanks.

Locked button & switch for volume is broke also back is cracked , can i get my phone replaced for free ?

my lock button and the switch to turn the volume on & off is broke. also the back of my phone is cracked. i know apple doesn't replace cracked phones so would i have to pay for a replacement even though my lock button & the switch for the volume is broke ? if so , how much ? or would if be cheaper to just but a whole new iPhone ?

If your damage is caused by accidental damage or intentional user damage, then you would be looking at an out of warranty repair. I'm not sure what the costs of an out of warranty repair are for an iPhone 4, but they are probably in the $99-149 USD range.
The cost for getting a new iPhone would depend upon your current contract status. If you are out of contract, you can get a new iPhone 4s (the next newer model) for free.

What is the recommended way for persisting JMS messages?

What is the recommended way for persisting JMS messages?. As per the IMQ admin documentation , using the default built-in persistence type which is through unix flat files is much efficient and faster, compared to the database persistence .
Tried setting up the jdbc stuff for database persistence on iAS 6.5 . I am getting the following
error .

Any thoughts?

From the output, you are using imq 2.0. In that release
the key used to persist a durable subscriber in the database
table has a limit of 100 characters. The output shows that
your value is:
SystemManager%3ASystemManagerEngine%2BiMQ+Destination%0AgetName%28%29%3A%09%09SM_Res
ponse%0AClass%3A%09%09%09com.sun.messaging.Topic%0AgetVERSION%28%29%3A%09%092.0%0Ais

esponse%2C+JMQDestinationDescription%3DA+Description+for+the+Destination+Object%7D:
which is much longer than 100 characters.
You might want to shorten the string you use for the
durable name.
And yes, the default file-based persistence store is
more efficient when compared to the plugged-in persistence
through a database.

Dynamic Environment Switching For REPORTS_PATH 11g

Oracle Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.2.0 with Patch Set 2 (11.1.1.3.0) - Linux
Dynamic Environment Switching For REPORTS_PATH doesn't work.
According to documentation B32121-03 (Publishing Reports to the Web with Oracle Reports Services 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) point 8.2.2):
1. comment REPORTS_PATH in reports.sh
2. set enviroment settings in rwserver.conf with REPORTS_PATH and NLS_LANG and defaultEnvId (DEV and PRD with defaultEnvId="DEV")
3. restart reports server
4. run http://mywls:8888/reports/rwservlet?SERVER=rep_wls_reports_mywls_asinst_1&REPORT=testreport.rdf&USERID=user/user1@mydb&DESFORMAT=html&DESTYPE=cache&ENVID=DEV
REP-110: File testreport.rdf cannot be opened.
REP-1070: An error occurred while opening or saving a document.
REP-0110: File testreport.rdf cannot be opened.
The same situation for &ENVID=PRD or without ENVID (as I expect it should work as default - DEV enviroment). File testreport.rdf is located in both paths (/u00/DEV/reports and /u00/PRD/reports)
http://mywls:8888/reports/rwservlet/showenv?server=rep_wls_reports_mywls_asinst_1&authid=oiduser/oiduser1 reads informations from reports.sh file but doesn't read enviroment settings from rwserver.conf (REPORTS_PATH is empty because I comment it in reports.sh).
Where's my problem? Should I set any other setting(s)?
Unfortunately note [231051.1] and other referenced doesn't resolve my problem...
Edited by: user9093781 on 2011-08-23 06:50

Not sure if this helps at all. I just went through a nightmare trying to get 11g forms/reports to work through the forms builder.
What I discovered with that is that I indeed had to set the REPORTS_PATH in rwserver.conf... however there were 3 different files that I ended up having to put it in (not sure if had to be in all 3). And perhaps more importantly, there seems to be an order to how you put these xml statements in the rwserver.conf files.
In my case, it wouldn't work at all until I put it right after the last "<engine id=" statement.
Mine looks something like this (not that this is a snippet of the file in Windows, for running via Forms/Reports Builder):
<engine id="rwURLEng" class="oracle.reports.urlengine.URLEngineImpl" maxEngine="1" minEngine="0" engLife="50"/>
<environment id="default">
     <envVariable value="C:\Oracle\WLS11gR1U4\user_projects\domains\AISworkstation\" name="REPORTS_PATH"/>
     <envVariable value="AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1" name="NLS_LANG"/>
     <envVariable value="RRRR-MM-DD" name="NLS_DATE_FORMAT"/>
</environment>
<environment id="windev_xxxxxxxx">
<envVariable name="REPORTS_PATH"
value="M:\ADS\Dvlprs\xxxxxxx\11g\FormsApps\stage;M:\ADS\Dvlprs\xxxxxxx\11g\FormsApps"/>
</environment>
I'm still figuring this all out too (although I did get it working how I need.. just not sure if it is the optimal solution), so I'm not sure how much this will help you. But for sure I can say that there is an order to these XML tags that I'm not so sure was the same (or maybe not enforced) in 10g.
Good luck

Silent Uninstall Switch for FlashUtil32_11_4_402_278_ActiveX.exe

I know I can run 'FlashUtil32_11_4_402_278_ActiveX.exe' (found in 'C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash') manually, but I'd like to automate the removal process to avoid having the user click on anything. (I want zero user interaction!)
Are there any silent/unattended switches for FlashUtil32?

Hi Pat & thank you kindly for at least responding to the thread. I greatly appreciate it.
For what its worth the -uninstall switch works for the following executables in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash:
FlashPlayerPlugin_11_XXX.exe
FlashPlayerUpdateService.exe
FlashUtil32_11_XXX_Plugin.exe
It does not seem to work for the FlashUtil32_11_XXX_ActiveX.exe. However, as you pointed out, it does work with the uninstall_flash_player.exe, and that seems to get rid of the last remaining FlashUtil32_11_XXX_ActiveX.exe file (among other things I'm sure).
Thanks!
