Setting The Default Route in a Jumpstart Install with Multiple Interfaces

Greetings,
I'm performing a Jumpstart install on a SPARC v240 server, which has multiple network interfaces. I'm trying to configure all of the interfaces as part of the Jumpstart setup. However, Jumpstart doesn't like the default route that I'm supplying. If I add the default_route parameter anywhere but under the first interface, Jumpstart complains that the default route is missing (by making me add it after it dumps out to the suninstall screens. If I add the default route under the first interface, Jumpstart dumps me to the suninstall screen which says that the route could not be added.
What am I doing wrong ? Am I trying to get Jumpstart to do something that it won't do ?
Here is my sysidcfg file. The file shown below will cause Jumpstart to dump to the suninstall screen, which will indicate that the route cannot be added:
Please wait while the system information is loaded... /
Please wait while the system is configured with your settings...
The route provided could not be added at this time. If you wish to accept the
route provided, press 'Accept' and the address will be added for reboot,
otherwise press 'Cancel' and provide another address.
1. Accept
2. Cancel
Enter the number corresponding to your choice [1]
Here is the sysidcfg file:
name_service=NONE
network_interface=bge0
{hostname=conwe125
ip_address=10.15.8.122
netmask=255.255.0.0
default_route=158.73.175.254
protocol_ipv6=no}
network_interface=bge1
{ip_address=10.15.9.122
netmask=255.255.0.0
protocol_ipv6=no}
network_interface=bge3
{ip_address=158.73.175.117
netmask=255.255.0.0
protocol_ipv6=no}
network_interface=ce0
{ip_address=10.16.0.208
netmask=255.255.0.0
protocol_ipv6=no}
network_interface=ce3
{ip_address=158.73.175.118
netmask=255.255.255.0
protocol_ipv6=no}
root_password=5Z5XTytD2Eddo
security_policy=NONE
terminal=vt100
system_locale=en_US.ISO8859-1
timezone=US/Eastern
timeserver=localhost
Thanks In Advance,
Chris Hanrahan

That sysidcfg seems a bit odd anyway, have you by any chance put the different interfaces of your jumpstart server into it? Normally you won't need to specify a default router since the jumpstart will figure it out anyway.. Does your jumpstart server have an interface on each network you want to jumpstart?

How to set the default route on a RVS4000 to point to a gateway in the LAN

Hi
The dialog in the RVS4000 for static routes does not allow to set the default route to point to a gateway in the LAN. Clearly this is either a bug or a feature of the web-interface and not a restriction of the box, which runs some kind of linux. So my question is there a way around this problem rather then defining routes to n-class A networks to cover the internet? Like a terminal access to set the default route?
Thanks and cheers
Frank

Hi David
Thanks for your reply. I did already the first part and it seems that I presumed wrongly that the RVS4000 can be used as a layer 3 switch, instead it is only a 1-port gateway. Not that there is a technical limitation from the hardware or the OS of the box. It does layer 3 routing e.g. for its VLAN's. The only point to stop it from having the capability which I expect from something called router is to set its default route to the right gateway independant which port might be connected. The reason why I want a LAN port pointing to the gateway and do not use the WAN port without firewall is of course the VLAN capability of the LAN ports. The idea of the RVS is to bundle two nets, including the one where the gateway is on, and send it to a WAP4410N box, which nicely makes them wireless with different SSID's. Actually I have two ports connetced to the core network, if I am forced to have only the WAN port connected to the core, due to this artificial limitation, I would have to reconfigure a bit. Therefore I try to find an easier solution setting the route by "hand".
Cheers Frank

ASA 5505 - 2 Internet Connections, Problems with the Default Route

Hey there,
i have a Problem at a Customer Site at the moment. The customer uses an ASA 5505 with two internet connections attached to it. On the first connection (which is the only one in use at the moment) he has some Static-PAT's from Outside to Inside where he translates different services to the internal servers. He also has a site-2-site VPN terminating there and AnyConnect.
He now wants to switch the Internet Traffic from Inside to the new Internet Connection. Therefore changing the default route to that new ISPs Gateway. The problem now is, that no traffic recieved on the old "outside" Interface is transmitted back out of that old "outside" Interface. And this happens although the "same-security permit intra-interface" command is set.
Can you tell me what's wrong here? For every Static-PAT from outside to inside there is also a dynamic PAT from inside to outside. But the ASA seems to ignore this. I have not looked into the Logs yet, was too busy finding the problem because i had no real time window to test on the productive ASA.
Can it be achieved in any way? Having a default route on the ASA which leads any traffic to the second internet connection while still having connections on the first internet connection where no explicit route can be set? Because connections arrive from random IPs?
Many thanks for your help in advance!

Phillip, indeed , I have as well read may comments,it all depends on your environment as they all differ from one another, you best bet is to have a good solid plan for upgrade and fall back. You do have a justification to upgrade for features needed, so I would suggest the following:
1- Do a search again in forum for ASA code upgrades and look at comments from users that have gone through this process and note their impact in fuctionality if any. I believe this is good resource to collect information .
2- Very important , look into release notes for a particular version. For example version 8.0, look into open CAVEATS usually at the end of the link page, reading the open bugs gives you clues what has not yet been resolved for that particular code and if in fact could impact you in your environment, it is possible that a particular bug does not realy apply to your environment becuase you have yet not implemented that particualr configuration. Usually we all try to aim towards a GD (General Deployment) code which is what we all understand is most stable but not necesarily means you have to be stack in that code waiting for another GD release, in my personal experience I have upgraded our firewall from 7.2 to 8.0(3) long ago and had no issues, and recently upgraded to 8.0(4)when it was first release in August this year.
Release notes
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6120/prod_release_notes_list.html
3- AS a good practice precaution -
a-Backup firewall configs in clear text as well as via tftp code.
b-Backup running code and ASDM version code currently running in firewall.
c- Save the output of " show version " to have as reference for all the feature licenses you currently have running as asll as activation keys - good info to have to compare with after upgrade.
d- Ensure that the code you will be using to upgrade also uses correct ASDM version code.
I think with thorough assesment and preparation you can indeed minimize impact.

How can I set the default home page in Firefox 4 for all users that login to a PC on a Win 7 PC?

I work at a community college in upstate NY.
We use Firefox as the default browser at our institution and we have always set the default homepage to be our homepage for all users that login to the PC. We had a procedure to to that that worked with Windows XP and FF 3 or earlier
We would do the following:
1. go to: c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\FireFox\Profiles\<profile_name>\prefs.js
2. Add the line: user_pref (“browser.startup.homepage”,”http://www.genesee.edu”);
3. Copy the Folder
C:\Documents & Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla
To
C:\Documents & Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla
4. Restart the computer
We're going to Win 7 and Firefox 4 and things seem to be different in terms of files and file structure. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.

Making customisation from the default profile is generally considered poor practice and quite often doesn't work out as planned. (If you're interested in some more information on this, [http://mockbox.net/windows-7/227-customise-windows-7-default-profile.html see here] see here)
This article should help you with developing and deploying your customised Firefox 4 installation (without touching the Windows 7 default user profile):

How to set the default display date of Calender prompt of SMPortal???

Good Day!!
As for as my knowledge, the default date Visible in all Calender prompt will be the
Starting Date in the Specified date range either "RelativeDateRange" or "AbosoluteDateRange".
But we have a requirement to set the default date to a date in the middle of the specified range, I don't find any option to specify in Request Offering Wizard or MP's xml file.
Our scenario is as follows,
    We are trying to customize the CSPP's request offer "Request Virtual Machine", which has a user promt to select Decommission Date for the New VM. We have configured the date prompt as Relative Date range and set the
Start date as "1 day next to user's current time" and Maximum date to "90 days after relative date". So the user will get option to select Decomm date from (1-90) days with the defalut date as 1st day next to his current
time. But our requirement is to set the default available date as 90th date in the above mentioned Relative Date Range.
     I couldn't find any option in Request offering Wizard as attached below,
      Also I couldn't even find any tag to specify the default display date in the MP's XML file as attached below. Is there any other <tag> can be included inside <Details> tag to accomplish this ??
   Is there any other way to accomplish this???
    Please advise
Thanks,

This is probably a link editor parameter, see the linker and loader guide.
Another thing you can do is write your own sbrk() that will log whenever it's called, so you can at least see how many times it's called and with what values. If you really need in-depth instrumentation, write your own heap routines and give them the same names as the CRTL routines. The linker should find yours first and route all memory operations through them. At least, that's the way it worked for me on SunOS 4.1....

How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg

How do I set the default print margins for ALL printers in mozilla.cfg, even ones that are not yet installed / connected to the computer?
I'm trying to install firefox with MDT and apply certain print options, but the printers themselves are connected at a later stage so the print.printer_myprinterhere cannot be used.

Best answer I could find: [https://mike.kaply.com/2012/03/16/customizing-firefox-autoconfig-files/#comment-132668]
If you can figure out how to add the printer name, this can be used to lock the margins.

How do I set the default to adobe 9.3?

How do I set the default to Adobe 9.3? I have Acrobat 6.0 that tries to open. However, I want the Adobe Reader 9.3 to open. How do I make this change?

I had the exact same problem.....iinstalled on a Windows XP machine
You probably had 9.3 already installed, then you pulled out your 6.0 Acrobat Professional disk and installed that.
What you need to do is "remove" your Adobe 9.3.
Re-start your machine. Then reload Adobe ...try Adobe 8.
Now it won't use Acrobat 6.0. At this point, select an existing PDF file, RIGHT click, select "Open With...". You won't probably see Acrobat 6.0 so you have to "BROWSE" ... find Adobe, then find "6.0". Select.
At this point Adobe 8 will be your default, but, you can always select 6.0 by "right clicking" the PDF first, when you want to.

How to set the default NetworkInterface for the default socket factory?

Hi,
I would like to know how to set the default network interface used by the JVM. I saw that you can specify the network interface when creating a socket. But my problem is that I dont want to change every socket creation in the application and even worse some partner's libraries wich I dont have access to code also create sockets. So is there a way to specify to the JVM wich interface to use by default? I didn't saw any System.properties to set this and my googling fishing didn't return anything usefull.
Thanks

By default it will use whichever one the routing tables tell it will give the shortest path to the destination. For globabl changes, adjust your routing tables. You can't do this from Java, you have to use whatever OS tools are to hand.

Setting the default respond email address in Yosemite Mail

In Mavericks I was able to set the default email address to my new address when I was replying to mail sent to me using an older address I am transitioning from. However this behavior got changed after installing Yosemite. In Mail Preferences -> Composing I do not see any place to create a default email address when responding. Only for new mail. I was wondering if it is possible to change this via command line in Terminal?

Whichever account mailbox is currently selecting in the mailboxes drawer will be the account used when selecting New to compose a new message. If no account mailbox is currently selected, the first account listed in the account's window at Mail > Preferences > Accounts is the default email account.
Tiger Mail includes a true default account selection for "Send new mail from".

How to set the default boot to OSx? And what button is the "option" on my macbook pro 13 2011 ?

If you installed the drivers sofftware then there should be a Startup Disk control panel in Windows. However, you can boot back to OS X without it:
From Windows restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold the OPTION (ALT) until the boot manager appears.
Select the disk icon of the OS X volume.
Click on the arrow button below the icon.
Once back in OS X you can use Startup Disk preferences to reset the permanent startup volume.

How to set the default boot drive

I have three boot drives on my Power Mac G5. One is Tiger on the internal factory installed drive. The second one is Tiger on an external SATA drive. The third is Leopard on the second external SATA drive.
When I boot the Power Mac, by default, I want to always boot Tiger on the external SATA drive, but when I boot the Power Mac the system seems to want to always default to the Leopard drive.
I've booted using the startup disk choice in System Preferences, but is that the correct way to set the default boot drive or is there some other way to set the boot drive preference?
My only other idea is to just reformat the Leopard drive, but I would still like to have a bootable Leopard just in case I want to use that.
Any advice?

SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

The radio button Service should not be visible.
Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
Kindly help out me ASAP.

The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
On the next line enter the default value within this range. At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D". This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record. You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

Can I set the default save location in text edit to dropbox?

I'm happy with dropbox for now and want to set the default save folder to a dropbox folder but I cannot see how to do this.
Can it be done? Or do I need a 3 party text editor?
Thanks
Tom

You cannot. Because this option both takes much longer and reduces the quality of files, it has to be chosen specifically.
In any case, when you save a PDF file from Word. this process does not involve Acrobat or Adobe software in any way.
