I tried connecting to it the way I've always connected to routers in the past - using the network daemon during boot-up. But this time it failed - I think I got a dhcp timeout notification. In my /etc/rc.conf I have eth0="dhcp" and INTERFACES=(eth0). I also tried using WICD which I have installed on the computer (it's a laptop with a wifi chip) by enabling the wicd daemon, disabling the network daemon and blacklisting the eth0 interface; but when WICD tried to connect to the switch, I got an error saying it was unable to acquire an IP address. Please correct me if I am wrong but I suspect this all means I am going to need to specify my own static IP address as the switch is not going to assign one to me automatically. If that is the case, how do I go about specifying my own IP address? Thanks!!
As mentioned by arkham, switches operate at Layer 2, which isn't aware of IP addresses (Layer 3). So if this is actually a switch (not a router) then no, you won't be able to get a DHCP lease from it since it's not running a DHCP server.
If there's nothing else on your network acting as a DHCP server, which it doesn't sound like there is, then you'll need to set a static IP.
# Use 'ifconfig -a' or 'ls /sys/class/net/' to see all available interfaces.
# Interfaces to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each interface then list in INTERFACES
# - prefix an entry in INTERFACES with a ! to disable it
# - no hyphens in your interface names - Bash doesn't like it
# DHCP: Set your interface to "dhcp" (eth0="dhcp")
# Wireless: See network profiles below
eth0="eth0 10.16.1.175 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.16.1.255"
INTERFACES=(eth0)

How to connected mgmt port on switch 2960 -XR

Hi guys,
I need of a technical support to resolve a issue with some Switch 2960-XR and its MGMT Port installed on our infrastructure.
I'd like to reach it via ssh connection to management them from a remote station (my PC), some guides found on Internet suggested me to use a extenal Hub/switch and a PC dedicated for that like this:
|SW1 mgmt port|------|H|
|SW2 mgmt port|------|U|-------- PC
|SW3 mgmt port|------|B|
I've also tried to patch the mgmt port on a port tagged with a management VLAN but it's not worked.
I ask you if there is a way to reach that SW using mngt port without use another external SW, thanks in advance for your support

Our network is hybrid, we have CIsco Sw and IBM Sw.
For the IBM solution the configuration of mgmt port is inband (data) and use an interface called IP2 where assigning an IP address we can manage via ssh the sw. In this case we've created a dedicated Vlan 15 and assigned as IP 10.10.10.15/24 to the interface IP2.
In Cisco Sw the only ways I know is either to create a dedicated Vlan with an IP or using Out of band, but in this case I've to use an external Sw.
Which is the best solution to have the management port on Cisco Sw without to use out of band?
thanks

How to change SSID for Linksys wireless switch for PC?

imac-G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Now, let's try to brake this issue down:
I need the Linksys to get a PC (Dell) running wireless. I installed a motorola PCI card for ethernet & the software that came with it in the PC. The switch does not read the network.
This involves a networking issue on a PC running Windows
The last time I spoke with Linksys they suggested http://192.168.1.1/same address, also 192.168.1.225. I get network connection errors.
This is an issue of your network setup
I have my Powerbook hard wired to the Motorola wireless router. My I-Mac is wireless.
So PowerBook & iMac work fine. Right?
You also have a Motorola Wireless Router, is this also your broadband modem?
I hooked up the Linksys switch to the modem with ethernet cat 5 cable. I still get connection errors. Neither computer can access these links. I get Motorola's broadband page with 192.168.1.1. I've done as much as I know but can't change the ssid if I can't access the Linksys switch. HELP Please!
This is a bit confusing:
What do you mean by connection errors? Unable to connect, able to connect but the connection drops?
Try this:
Shutdown your PC and both of your Macs
Turn of the Linksys switch and unplug it from the Motorola Router
Unplug the PowerBook which is wired to the Motorola and directly (with the same ethernet cable) connect it to the Linksys switch
Turn on the Linksys switch
Turn on your PowerBook
Open Safari or any other browser and go to: http://192.168.1.225 or http://192.168.1.225 (or whatever address Linksys told you)
Configure your Linksys switch (Change SSID) and save new settings
now, if everything goes fine, then:
Connect the PowerBook to the Motorola Router (just as it was before)
Connect the Linksys switch to the Motorola Router via an Ethernet Cable
Try to connect (from your PowerBook via Safari) to the Linksys switch@ http://192.168.1.225 or http://192.168.1.225 (or whatever address Linksys told you)
Keep the iMac and the PC shutdown untill you manage to set up the Linksys switch propperly

How to connect a Linksys WES610N Bridge to an Airport Express network

I'm surprised I haven't been able to find an answer to this question anywhere online. I haven't even found anyone asking this question!???
I'm trying to connect a Cisco Linksys WES610N Entertainment Bridge to my Airport Express wireless network. This will allow me to plug my blu-ray player into the bridge and go online for Netflix. (My TV does not have an online option, unfortunately.)
The setup instructions indicate to press the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on my router before pressing the same on the bridge. Of course, Airport Express (assuming that's my router) does not have such a button. I tried turning off security to my network using Airport Utility and trying to connect that way, without success.
Some help documents from Cisco suggest connecting both the bridge and my computer to a router using ethernet cables and accessing setup through a web-based interface, but again, Airport Express has only one ethernet port, so that's not an option.
Cisco has very little Mac support :-(
Hoping the Apple community can help me.

Okay, so to answer my own question after considerable sleuthing . . . for anyone else trying to do this:
Connect your computer to the bridge using an ethernet cable, then open a browser and enter the following address: http://169.254.1.250
This will take you to a login page: leave the username field blank, enter "admin" in the password.
You will see the Cisco setup page. I selected manual setup and entered the name of my network and password. I got a progress bar and finally the wireless network light on the bridge started flickering.

How to provide access to multiple users connected to a Dumb switch? (multi-auth/multi-domain)

Good morning everybody,
I am writing on behalf of not being able to implement a desired outcome in our company network. In fact the situation is as follows:
What I want to do is to be able to authenticate users (802.1x authentication) in our company radius server and authorize them access by having a dynamic VLAN assignment in a multi-user environment on one and the same port of a Cisco 2960 switch. So far, the authentication and authorization has been working completely smoothly (there are no problems with itself). The concept involves the configuration of both DATA and VOICE VLANs as I there is also phone authentication implemented. In order to simulate this environment I introduce a Dumb switch connected to my Cisco 2960 Catalyst.
What I have successfully managed to get to work so far is this:
1) On one switch port I have tried the “authentication host-mode multi-domain” and it worked perfectly for a PC behind a telephone, or with one PC connected to a the dumb switch + the telephone connected to another port of the dumb switch. Logically it is the same situation as there is a separation in two domains – DATA and VOICE. Bellow is an output from show authentication sessions for this scenario.
Interface MAC Address Method Domain Status Session ID
Fa0/23 0021.9b62.b79b dot1x DATA Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F3008E (user1)
Fa0/23 0015.655c.b912 dot1x VOICE Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F9009F (phone)
2) On the other hand, when I try the same scenario with the “authentication host-mode multi-auth”, the switch still separates the traffic in two domains and is able to authenticate all users, AS LONG AS they are in the same VLAN.
show authentication sessions:
Interface MAC Address Method Domain Status Session ID
Fa0/23 0021.9b62.b79b dot1x DATA Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F3008E (user1)
Fa0/23 b888.e3eb.ebac dot1x DATA Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F8008C (user2)
Fa0/23 0015.655c.b912 dot1x VOICE Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F9009F (phone)
However, I cannot succeed authentication of many users from DIFFERENT VLANs, neither in multi-auth nor in multi-domain modes.
What I want to get is an output like this:
Interface MAC Address Method Domain Status Session ID
Fa0/23 0021.9b62.b79b dot1x DATA Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F3008E (user1)
Fa0/23 b888.e3eb.ebac dot1x DATA Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F8008C (user2)
Fa0/23 0015.655c.b912 dot1x VOICE Authz Success C0A8FF69000000F9009F (phone)
I want the switch to authenticate the users anytime they connect to itself and for them to have an instant access to the network. (I tell this because I tried scenario 1) with multi-domain mode and authentication violation replace, and it worked but, two users never had access to the “Internet” simultaneously!!!
The configuration of the interface connected to the Dumb switch is as follows.
interface FastEthernet0/x
description Connection to DUMBswitch
switchport mode access
switchport voice vlan XXX
switchport port-security maximum 10
switchport port-security
switchport port-security violation protect
authentication host-mode multi-auth
authentication priority dot1x
authentication port-control auto
authentication timer reauthenticate 4000
authentication violation replace
dot1x pae authenticator
dot1x timeout tx-period 10
spanning-tree portfast
The way I see it is explained in the following steps:
- PC1 connects to the Dumb switch. This causes the Cisco switch to authenticate user1. This creates an auth. session with its MAC address linked to a domain DATA.
- When PC2 connects to the Dumb switch, this causes the violation replace which replaces the recent authenticated MAC address with the MAC of PC2. I would like it once authenticated to appear in the authentication sessions with a link to a new DATA domain linked to the VLAN assigned from the RADIUS server.
Is this possible? I think (in theory) this is the only way to provide authenticated access to multiple users connecting through Dumb switch to the network.
Has anybody ever succeeded in such a configuration example and if yes, I would be love to get some help in doing so?
Thank you
Stoimen Hristov

Hi Stoimen,
I have done a setup similar to yours with the only exception being VLAN assignment. When I used dACLs only, it makes things somewhat easier as the VLAN no longer matters. Remember that the switchport is in access mode and will only allow a single VLAN across it (with the exception of the voice VLAN). I think that is the real cause of your problem.
From what I can see, you have 2 options available to you:
1) Use dACLs instead of VLAN assignment. This means that an access list will be downloaded from the radius server straight to the authenticated user's session. I have tested this and it works perfectly. Just Google Cisco IBNS quick reference guide and look for the section that deals with Low Impact mode.
2) Get rid of the dumb switches and use managed switches throughout your network. Dumb switches will always be a point of weakness in your network because they have no intelligence to do advanced security features like port security, 802.1x, DHCP snooping, etc.
Hopefully someone else will chime in with another option.

How do I set-up Linksys E3000 with Actiontec MI424WR

Hi,
I recently purchased a Linksys E3000 so that I could use it as my primary router instead of the Actiontec MI424WR. I want to use the Wireless N functionality of the new router since the MI424WR does not support that.
I've researched many forums and have attempted many changes. But, it seems that the instructions available online are geared towards a different FiOS connection than what I have. There were details about setting up the MI424WR as a bridge, ect, but I could not get any to work.
My Actiontec MI424WR is connected via a coaxial cable, I know there are others connected via a CAT5 cable. I've also read about VOD or CableTV service being disrupted by changing the settings on the Actiontec MI424WR, but I don't think that is the case with my service. This has been part of my confusion with everything I've read.
Could someone please explain to me, in simple terms, how I can get my Linksys E3000 set-up to work as my primary wireless router?
Thank you in advance,
Solved!
Go to Solution.

What revision of the Actiontec do you have?
Do you have FIOS-TV? Your post is not clear about that.
Is it practical for you to run cat5 to the ONT?
If you want to keep the coax WAN connection, then you must bridge the Actiontec in order for your router to be primary.
If you can switch to a cat5 WAN connection, then you can connect your router as primary with the Actiontec behind it as a MOCA LAN bridge. You will not lose VOD, guide data or widgets. Remote DVR and on-screen caller-id will not function properly if your router is primary.
See this FAQ for different ways you can connect your router.

How to connect my iPad to wireless dest 3511e all in one HP printer

How to connect my wireless printer to my iPad HP dest jet 3511e all in one SN [Personal Information Removed]

Hi Alicerief,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I understand that you would like to know how to print from your iPad to your Deskjet 3511 printer.
Your printer is AirPrint and ePrint capable so you should be able to use either method to print once your printer is connected to your wireless network. The instructions on connecting your printer to your wireless network can be found in your user guide. You can designate it as a wireless printer during the setup as detailed in the section "Traditional wireless connection" on page 32. If you have already installed your printer onto your computer using a USB connection, the instructions to switch to a wireless connection can also be found on page 32 in the section titled "Change from a USB connection to a wireless network".
I have included several reference documents for you. The first one reviews printing from an Apple mobile device to your printer. I have also included the document on how to setup ePrint and customize the printer's ePrint email address. There are two mobile apps available from HP that will allow you to send print jobs to your printer, the HP ePrint mobile app and the HP All-in-One Printer Remote app. The AiO app will also allow you to scan from your printer to your iPad. I have included the FAQ documents for both apps.

How To Connect WRT54GS Wirelessly

I have a WRT54GS router that I want to setup wirelessly with my Windows XP desktop that only has a wireless adapter installed. There is no ethernet port on the pc. I have looked at the Stickys and read the FAQ but still haven't found an answer that clearly states how to setup the router without using an ethernet cable connected to the pc. I want to have the ability to access the web based setup page as well so that I can secure my settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Generally, it's better to configure the router through a wired connection to be sure you configure your router and not someone else's... Thus if you have any wired ethernet device it's better to use that instead of trying a wireless only setup.
You can set it up only through wireless, however, you should make sure you are connected to your router in the beginning. Easiest test would be to unplug your router from power and check for available wireless networks. If there is still another "linksys" network to be seen, you must be extra careful.
Anyway, then plug your router back into power. Make your computer search for networks and connect to the unsecured "linksys" network. It's best to put the computer close to the router for this to make sure you connect to your router.
Then open the web interface at http://192.168.1.1/ default password should be "admin", no username required.
To be sure it's your router, go to the Status page, check it's really a WRT54GS and check the MAC address you see there. It should be the same as the one printed underneath the WRT (maybe one or two off in the last digit). If it's a completely different MAC address, check the LAN and wireless subtabs and the MAC addresses shown there. If all MAC addresses are completely different, unplug the router from power and see if your computer is still connected to the web interface or not.
Anyway, once you have established it's really the web interface of your router, check the firmware version and on the router and the one available online. It's best to upgrade the firmware before you do the configuration. If you have the latest firmware you have to configure the router. I would recommend the following steps:
1. Go to the Wireless page. Change the SSID to something unique. Save settings.
2. You'll loose the connection. Make your computer search for networks again. You should now see the new unique SSID. Connect to that network and open the web interface again.
3. Next set up wireless security. Enable WPA2 Personal with AES encryption and set a strong passphrase. Save settings. You'll loose the connection again.
4. Now you have to reconnect. Depending on your computer and the software use to configure the wireless you may have to remove the unique SSID first from the list of preferred network before you can reconnect. The computer usually remembers the SSIDs joined before and won't connect if the security settings don't match the one used before. But you have to find that out.
5. As you are still using XP the computer may not support WPA2 or AES encryption (which is the best and strongest you can use today). Thus, if you are absolutely not able to reconnect the computer you will have to reset the router to factory defaults pressing the reset button for 30 seconds and start over. Choose WPA Personal with TKIP and a strong passphrase then. That should work. I would not recommend to use WEP which is easily cracked.
6. Once you have managed to set up your desktop to connect to your secured wireless network you should make one more change: change the default password "admin" on the "Administration" setup page.
7. Remember to clean up the list of preferred wireless networks, in particular, don't forget to remove the "linksys" network from that list. Otherwise your computer may automatically connect to a "linksys" network if one comes available in the proximity.
That should be it.

[SOLVED] How to start JACK with KDE 4? (and which JACK should I use?)

Hi again
I'm using KDE 4, and I've just installed JACK again, and since I can't find any decent documentation on this, I'm having a bit of a problem.
Currently I have jack from [extra] installed, rather than jack2. When I try starting jack as the ArchWiki suggests, i.e. by typing "jackd -d alsa", I get the following error:

I've also tried jack2 from [community], and after starting it with "jack_control start", I get this...
$ jack_control start

So how do I start it? I'm guessing jack doesn't want to start because some other KDE application grabbed alsa before jackd (but I've been wrong before), and I don't have the slightest idea what jack2 is about with that "generic" error. If anyone would help me shed some light on this, I'd appreciate it a lot.
Thanks in advance!

@schivmeister thanks that one worked
Yes, it was knotify4. So now this part works. I've switched to jack2 and it works flawlessly when starting it with jackd
So this part is solved... now, would you be so kind (if you know) as to point me to some tutorials or howtos (or proper documentation, cos I can't find much of that either) on how to connect various ALSA channels with JACK?
Basically, I want to route my PCM channel and the Mic channel into Capture 1 (or one to Capture 1 and other to Capture 2), since my Intel HDA audio card doesn't have the "Mix" or "What-U-Hear" or whatever as an available capture source. Any leads on that? (or do I have to open another thread for it?)

TS1398 How to connect to wireless with iPad Mini running iOS 6.x.x.

Recently purchased iPad Mini which iOS 6.0.1 installed. It would not connect to the Internet over wifi at my home. I run two wifi networks in the house. One uses a Linksys WRT120G router (SSID:wremlc) and one using a combo DSL Modem/Router from CenturyLink (SSID:centurylink). iPad would not connect to either network. (As an aside my iPhone 4s amd my wife's iPhone 4 have been connected to the Linksys network (prior to upgrade to iOS 6.0.1. They still connect to the wremlc network but will not connect to the centurtlink network.) The Linksys router has been updated to the latest firmware and it is running WPA/WPA-2 security with AES/TKIP encryption and automatic channelling. After tinkering with the settings in the CenturyLink router and changing from automatic channling to Channel 6, I was able to the iPad mini but neither iPhone. I am afraid to change it on the wremlc network for fear that my iPhone will no longer connect. Took iPad back to Verizon Store and could not connect to any of their secure wifi networks. I am able to connect to public unsecure wifi networks in places like McDonalds, Panera and Starbucks. I am also able to connect to some private secure wifi networks at some of my firend's homes but not all. When I try, for example, at my in-laws house (they use a Linsys WRT120N router), it tries to join and I get a mesaage that says "Unable to join network "chandler". Same for my iPhones and my daughters iPad. I thought iOS 6.0.2 had fixed the wifi problems but clearly they have not. Don't think its a Linksys problem as my iPhones connect just fine but that could because its a remembered network that was originally connected before iOS 6.0 came out. Sorry for the epistle but any help would be appreciated.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I have an ipad first generation. I am trying to connect to a linksys router and the ipad is not finding the wireless network. What do I need to do? Thanks for your help.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
