Security on a monitored system

Hey Experts
Is there any way to control the security, authorizations, roles for a monitored system from Solution Manager?

Through CUA, you can manage security admin to remote systems.
Solman doesn't provide functionality to manage security to satellite systems.
Thanks,

PVC2300 - Video Monitoring System (3 urgent questions)

Hi there,
I'm pretty sure these questions have been asked before - but could not find answers to these.
Setup:
When running a Video Surveillance setup, with up to 16, PVC2300 cameras connected to the Video Monitoring System (LBAVMS16):
1. Does the PC running LBAVMS16 need to be "on" all the time for the video feed to be stored on a NSS device?
2. Is there any difference between the "old Linksys" monitoring software and "LBAVMS16"?
3. Can you run a mixed camera (WVC2300 and PVC2300) environment using "LBAVMS16"?
I have a partner testing the solution and I would guess they are not the only ones facing these same questions.
Many thanks in advance!

Hello,
First, you want to use SWVMS16. Its the newer Small Business Software Video Monitoring System that will work with WVC210, PVC2300, WVC2300, and PVC300 (new).
http://www.cisco.com/cisco/web/solutions/small_business/products/security/small_business_video_surveillance_cameras/index.html
The 'latest' version you will find here is 1.0.0, but when we announce the PVC300 orderable, that should go to 1.0.1.
Please upgrade both the PVC2300 and WVC2300 to 'Camera' FW version 1.0.1 for it to work with SWVMS16.
This SW is free so just come back and check in the coming weeks for the update.
The older LBAVMS16 will not support the PVC300 and has the old Linksys SKIN and is actually a different SW completely.   The newer one is the Cisco small business offering we will have going forward.   The older SW would allow you to set up the motion detection and then it would run in the task bar, and it would record as motion occurred, even though it was not open.
The new SWVMS16 has a concept of a MAIN console (role based access) and after you define the 'Always' on or 'Motion Detection' configuration, you will then need to click on START/STOP in the Recordings GUI Drawer and select START RECORDING SCHEDULE and then all the cameras will have a Green LED indicator on the screen showing they are active and ready and will follow the configuration.   You can minimize it at this point, but you cant close it. CLosing it will stop the schedule.   The datasheet should show the PC requirements to run this application, and to be honest, if you have more than 4 cameras, this is not a part time task. Of course, it will depend on the Video quality you set up on each camera, but you will find monitoring 8 cameras will use your CPU and Memory (run the Windows Task manager to see). This is why for 16 cameras, we recommed a very powerful PC with alot of RAM.
I am running a Dual Intel Core 2 CPU 6400 @ 2.13GHz Machine with 1 GB or RAM and with 4 cameras at Highest quality it runs at 45-55% CPU utilization, just as an example.    So the point is this PC should be pretty much dedicated to this function of monitoring, recording, playback.
Now keep something else in mind. The Cameras (all of ours) dont need the SWVMS16 to do motion detection to NSS, or EMAIL. The cameras themselves can FTP (client) motion detection (MPEG4 or MJPEG) direct to NSS (FTP server) or SMTP Mail. Its configured on the Camera.   And with a PC Browser, you can monitor the Camera, or QuickTime, etc. The SWVMS just makes it easy to monitor them all in one place with all the convenience and functions you would use in a SMB. So technically SWVMS16 is not needed to operate motion detection to the NSS, but if you are running SWVMS, then yes, it needs to be on.
In fact, I run BOTH on my cameras. That is, I have them set to FTP to my NSS, and I also have them monitored by SWVMS. Our Cameras are dual stream, dual codec, and have no problem with this, and can be monitored from up to 10 HTTP servers as well (RTSP increases that), which is usually enough.
An interesting twist, which is also practiced and supported, is defining the NSS File Share as the SWVMS16 Video Storage location. Just another option to consider.
Hope this clarifies a little?

Firefox will not let me get on any websites (safe AND not safe), claiming that it "may pose a security threat to your system"; when I try to choose the "proceed unprotected" option, it won't let me.

My computer's anti-virus software recently expired. A few days later, I went to download a new anti-virus software . . . when I opened up Firefox, I received a warning that claimed Firefox was infected with "Trojan-BNK.Win32.Keylogger.gen", and gave me two options: "Activate XP Security 2011 (recommended)" (this was a $60 charge and required credit card info) or "Continue unprotected (Dangerous)"
Since I needed to install new anti-virus, I figured I would continue unprotected, download my new software quickly, and remove the virus. But when Firefox opened, it gave me a message saying: "Firefox alert. Visiting this site may pose a security threat to your system!". Gave me three options:
1. "Get a copy of 'XP Security 2011' to safeguard your PC while surfing the web (RECOMMENDED)"
2. "Run a spyware, virus and malware scan" (I already did this)
3. "Continue surfing without any security measures (DANGEROUS)"
I tried clicking on different links, but the same warning kept showing up, even on verified and safe sites. I tried to choose the third option so that I could download my anti-virus software quickly, but nothing happened when I clicked on it - the page reloads and the warning shows up again.
My computer is still without anti-virus software because Firefox will not let me surf the internet. Please help!

It sounds as though your PC is infected with fake antivirus software. The detailed cleanup instructions vary depending on which fake AV you have. However, as a first step, try this:
Download the following on a different PC, copy them to a USB flash drive or CD, and then run them on the infected PC:
Malwarebytes Anti-malware : http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
SUPERAntiSpyware : http://www.superantispyware.com/
Hopefully these will get you back online safely. If not, search for clean-up instructions for the specific malware.

In 26.0, how do I put Download, Bookmarks, History, and Tags into separate windows? I have multi-monitor system and place these different windows . . .

Hello,
I recently, decided to upgrade from 19.0b to the current (26.0) version, as "Tab Utilities" now supports 26, but am finding one of the visual changes counter productive. My two workstations have multiple monitors. One has 2 monitors (2560x1600) and the other one has 4 monitors (2560x1600). On both workstations, I'll place the various Firefox informational windows off the "main monitor" (the one directly in front of me). This way they're available to me at a glance.
(Side note: I refer to my monitors, as 2L, 1 2R and the 4th as "auxiliary.") The one thing I miss most is being able size these Firefox windows independently and in different positions.
I mean I'm used to seeing "Download" on monitor 2R on the right side (1/8 of screen) behind Microsoft Process Explorer's System Information. While the History will be on monitor 2L on the right side at 1/4 of the screen). I'm used to glancing out my right eye at the downloads and when needing something from the past, it's right next to the main monitor #1. This way I can access history quickly.
I can see why a developer (with one monitor say 1920 x 1080) would love seeing one window, but why can't Firefox support both single and multiple monitor users at the same?
Anyway, is there a way to get 26.0 to place at least "Download" and "History" in separate sizable windows?
(I'm not jumping up and down to go back to 19.0b or to try 25, but would like to stay current.)

Hello,
Thank you for your very quick reply. Before I read your reply completely, let me see if I can answer your first concern.
> Maybe I am missing your point.
Maybe I'm not making the point properly. Honestly, I never explained the issue from how it is directly affecting me.
OK, let's do a real world example of what I'm seeing on my two monitor system. I'll first describe what I experienced with 19.0b and earlier, which is IMHO how it should work in 26 and beyond ('''''as an option'''''). Next, I'll review what I'm seeing in 26.0. Hopefully this will help you understand what changed, from a practical perspective.
In 19.0b (and how I like working) for a multiple monitor system:
On the main monitor, I'm running Firefox. It is 1920 x 1080 and is in the lower right hand corner.
On the the monitor to my right (2R), I have the Download Manager list of downloading and downloaded file. It is in the upper right hand corner and takes up about 300 x 1500 pixels.
For a two monitor system, I have the History List running beside Firefox in the lower right hand corner and it is 600 x 1080.
For a three (plus) monitor system, I have the History List running on my left (2L) monitor. It is in the lower right hand corner and is 600 x 1080 pixels big.
For 26.0: I'm seeing the following:
On the main monitor, I'm running Firefox. It is 1920 x 1080 and is in the lower right hand corner. (This is the SAME as with 19.0b.)
When I start the Download Manager and have it set up as I do for 19.0b, it looks OK. It is on monitor 2R and is 450 x 1500 pixels (because of the new navigation side bar).
'''''The problem STARTS NOW (when I start the History List).'''''
When starting the History List, it replaces the Download Manger on the 2R monitor in the 450 x 1500 pixel window. This doesn't work for me because:
1) It is too far away to see. (NOTE: I put it on the 2L monitor in the lower right hand corner. so I can see it easier for the 3+ monitor. In the case of the 2 monitor, I put it beside Firefox again to see it easier.)
Some might ask, but the Download Manager is on the 2R and right side, why can't the History List be there too? Good question, and I can only reply saying:
1) Personal choice.
2) The Download Manager is NOT as busy as the History List and I find it easy to read.
3) The History List is a lot busier and the font size looks to be smaller (might be the same, but it looks smaller to my eyes). I need it closer to me / Firefox.
What I'm saying is this . . . The Download Manager and History List have <ul>''valid reasons to be visible to the user at the same time''.</ul> They also need to be independent of one another for (at least) size and location.
Combining them together is OK for some people, but NOT for everyone. Please make it an option to combine (as in 26) and separate (25 and earlier).
I'm not sure this is the best way to put it, but here goes. Allow users to collapse or expand these various lists by using multiple windows. One window is the collapse view and multiple independent windows is the expand view.
I'll read and comment on the rest of your reply, soon. Thanks for allowing me hopefully to explain my point in a better manner. :-)

Is there a way I can permanently disable the security lock thing in System Preferences?

Aside from logging and using the root account on a daily basis, is there a way to permanently be rid of the security lock thing in System Preferences?
Yosemite has a bug (?) where if an Admin account has its password set to blank (empty), you can't remove the security lock...
You can click it, it'll ask for Username and Password (Why?), and when you click on 'Unlock', it unlocks for a brief moment and instantly locks itself again...
This is beyond infuriating. Do advise.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. However I'm quite aware that the sleep/wake button disables the screen. Unfortunately, mea maxima culpa, I sometimes accidentally hit shuttle before I've pressed the sleep/wake button, often when I am trying to do more than one thing at once. Sometimes I accidentally hit shuffle at other times too,eg when waking up the phone.
This is especially exasperating when listening to classical pieces with multiple movements. I will look for an alternative music player for the iphone, as I don't think the default music application and I are a good match.
Thanks again,
Tim Blackwell

Remote Desktop Monitoring System

I am having some porblem regarding my project on Remote Desktop Monitoring System.
The project is supposed to have the following features:
1.Monitor and Control the computer in a network
2.Send Instant Message
3.File Transfer
We are having porblem on Networking ,Please supply us with the code or description on how to connect computers using Java so we can check on ours....

Remote Desktop Monitoring System is supposed to be a fully java based project. As the name suggests, the project should be able to view the computers(active screens) on the network and perform some specified tasks.
It also should have features like Instant messaging and File transferring between the connected computers.
(It is similar to the available software in Windows XP which helps us to monitor and contorl othe computers in the network)
-In order to connect to each other, the computer should have Remote
Desktop Monitoring Systems Server software or Client software installed in it.
-The main objective of this project is to build that Server and Client software with which we can perform the specified tasks.
-We are using NetBeans to develop the project and MySQL to handle some user datas.
-We have finished the Front End forms for the project and are finding difficulties in networking using java.(since we are students new to java)
I hope the above explanation clears some queries about the project.If anything is not clear please post on this forum and help us.
So if anybody has similar type of project or and concept regarding how to create the Client and Server side software as mentioned above please help us.

Java Stack for Central monitoring system

I believe for central monitoring with only ABAP stack is sufficient to monitor both remote ABAP and JAVA stacks. For this purpose CCMS and GRMG can be used. My questing is there any need to have JAVA stack in central monitoring system? If yes, what are the things that only ABAP stack can not do alone and JAVA stack is required in central monitoring system?

Hi,

You should created this user in working client.
> Can you guys please help me to configure properly?
>
> One set document which I saw talks about the configuration using RZ21 and other document discuss about Configuration using System Monitoring Work Center, which one do we need to follow, are both methods are 2 different options doing the same thing, can you please clarify?

You can use RZ21 or System monitoring through work center. From Solution manager 7.1, you need to use work center only. So, I would suggest you to use work center only.

Xi3.0 Monitoring using a Central Monitoring system

Hi Guys
Has any of you managed to integrate XI3.0 SLD into Solution Manager 3.10 SLD or is it just not possible?
Have you figured out how to setup XI3.0 and Alert management to integrate that into a Central Monitoring system?
/tobbe

Hi Guys
I guess the obvious solution to my very own question would be to...
1. Install a 640 J2EE instance as a MASTER SLD
2. Configure both XI and Solution Manager to call "MASTER SLD" for info.
I will produce a document and publish it here as soon as I am done with the installations and configurations
Thanks for a great TechED

Lose interfaces from MRTG monitor system after upgrade.

After upgrade C7609S routers from:
c7600rsp72043-adventerprisek9-mz.122-33.SRD4.bin
to
c7600rsp72043-adventerprisek9-mz.150-1.S3a.bin
I lose interface with ip mpls configure form the MRTG SNMP pooling system. cfgmakre not see any more that interfaces (intrefaces fall on ($if_ok) filter). Other interface which not have a ip mpls configured is normally visible in the our MRTG monitoring system.
From my site it is looks like that interface when I configure ip mpls go to unknown state for MRTG. That interfaces are not any more ethernet type.
I can reach interface with configure ip mpls only with manual configure *.cfg file with ifindex value.
If you now how to fix that problem pleas let me know.
Best regards,
Primoz

Im not a Mac person and dont really know if this will fix it but try re-setting the work area and see if it then sticks.
Show screen shots if you can.
Maybe another Mac user can help.

Wireless Client PING-Based monitor system question

Hi:
I joined this forums because i need to recopilate info about a monitor system.
So, i have a relative big wireless network and due to legal instances I MUST use a ping-based monitor system to see the status of my network devices and the final clients on wireless station.
We developed a php linux-based system to make pings every 5 minutes to see if there is a host UP or DOWN. Everything works fine, the server is making the pings to the clients and MRTG generates graphic statistics.
Reference image -> http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/9125/pingred0xq.jpg
The problem is now I have received a notification to make a change on this system to send the pings FROM the clients TO the server and generate statistics.
Is there any difference between making pings from the Client side to the server and viceversa? Does round-trip time is different maybe?
What are the technicals issues on this system?
I accept every critic, advice, suggestion, information, etc.
PS: Sorry my poor english

That's interesting. It sounds as if you may have a good reason for implementing this, but it would also seem to be an inefficient monitoring scheme. A polling interval of 5 minutes does not give that much granularity for statistics even if you are able to make it work from the client side. Also, you would need to centrally collect the statistics in some way. If it were me I would stick to a centrally based monitoring system. I make heavy use of the syslog capabiliy on Cisco access points since they log just about everything. You can even have a syslog monitoring system page you for something as small as dropped wireless connection if you want to go that far.
Sorry if that's not much help, but I would definately have some people look at the big picture before implementing the proposed solution.
Good luck with it.

Correct 2nd monitor in 3 monitor System

Hi All,
I have a odds and ends 3 monitor system where the 3 monitors are all diferent sizes, 24, 22, 19. The 24 is the main monitor and the 22 is the second. I'd like Lr's 2nd monitor to display on the 22, but it pops up on the 19 and I haven't been able to change that. In fact if I alt-click it shows on the 19 and just clicking puts it on the 22.
How do get Lr to put the monitor where I want it, on the 22 monitor?

Marc,
You can try to move the screen and changing the positions of the screen in the order they are by right clicking on the desktop, select the option Screen Resolution.
You will see three screens in the sequence you can change their sequence as you want and hit apply.
Thanks

Video Monitoring System

I have just downloaded the Cisco Video Monitoring System. The look and feel are GREAT! BUT... I cant seem to figure out how to make it work for me
I have 2 monitors i would like the Cisco Video Monitoring System on SCREEN #2 not Screen #1.. and there are no setting in the program to make this happen or at least i have not found one. I have tried to run the program with the argument -window and it does not seem to respond to that does anyone have a work around for this? to make this program work for me i must be able to work on screen 1 and have the cisco monitoring program on screen #2 Please help!!!!! ASAP

I am not 100% I understood the question so let me restate it to be sure.
You have a IP based video camera and you want to know if you can use a dynamic DNS service to remotely manage/view the camera.
As long as the video camera is IP based then the use of a dynamic DNS service to remotely access it is possible. In order to do this there are a couple critical steps to make sure happen.
1) Setup the camera so it can be accessed locally via a static IP
2) Configure your border router, for SMB this is usually the firewall, to forward the correct traffic to the camera. If you only have 1 global ip address then you may want to look at PAT aka NAT overloading. If you have multiple global ip adddress' then using 1 via NAT is probabally your best option. Make sure that when your doing this step you also create the access-list rules to allow the traffic to pass.
Now steps 1 and 2 is what you would normally do for any connection from outside the office. The next step is where dynamic DNS will come into play.
3) Setup your dynamic DNS entry. This step will vary from vendor to vendor but generally the people who use a Dynamic DNS service only have 1 Dynamic IP address. If this matches your situation then you can place the dynamic DNS client, or whatever the service uses to identify your current ip address, on a workstation or server that is using the same global ip as the camera. Normally this means anywhere, but if you have more than 1 dynamic global address then be aware of where it is going as you don't want the wrong ip populated for dynamic dns.
Now your done. You should be able to go to access it from your dynamic dns entry i.e. securitycam.dynamicdnsservice.com
