What is the -k option for of the Ping utility in OS X?

  Hi,
May I know what is the -k option for of the Ping utility in OS X? It doesn't seem to be a ICMP protocol standards-relates.
Below is the description of this option copied from Yosemite.
-k trafficlass
             Specifies the traffic class to use for sending ICMP packets.  The
             supported traffic classes are BK_SYS, BK, BE, RD, OAM, AV, RV,
             VI, VO and CTL.  By default ping uses the control traffic class
             (CTL).
Thank you!

These are low-level bits defined in the kernel's IPv6 support code.
Here is the first reference I could find that actually says what some of them are: https://github.com/darwin-on-arm/xnu/blob/master/bsd/sys/kpi_mbuf.h
Search for "MBUF_TC_BE"

    What is the best option for tethering my IPhone 4s with my iPad? (the iPad is wifi only)

    #1. Understand that if you switch carriers, you can NOT take your existing iPhone with you. It won't work. You will need to purchase a new one.
    #2. Your only choices are Sprint and Verizon. Decide who has the better coverage in your area. Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get simultaneous voice and 3G data on either of these, as their CDMA networks do not support it. The U.S. T-Mobile network is not supported and is not fully compatible with the iPhone as it operates on a rarely used frequency compared to the rest of the world.
    #3. What in the world are "niners"? Do you mean you want to be able to keep your existing "phone numbers"? If so, that should be no problem. Most numbers in the US are now portable.
    #4. Consider WHY you want to switch. If the issue is really price, you're not going to see much of a difference. A few dollars a month at best for comparable voice and data plans.

  • Whats the best option for passing parameters between tf?

    Dear All,
    I have three Task Flows:
    1. TF1
         -  Main Taskflow that calls a web service to gather its data
    2. TF2
         -  Secondary taskflow which receives a parameter and depending on the value of the parameter received will display its data accordingly.  Generally any data
         is feed from TF1
    3. TF3
         -  Same as TF2Use Case:
    All three TF will be dropped to the page as Regions in a Webcenter Portal Application. Changes in TF1 should propagate into TaskFlow 2.
    Question:
    1. How do I configure that changes in TF1 would be propagated back into task flow 2 and 3 and whats the best option for this?
    2. At runtime, user can choose to edit the page and TF2 and TF3 can be deleted but TF 1 should remain as the source of information.
    Given the scenario above:
    - shall I wire the taskflows via page parameters?
    - contextual events?
    What are the considerations that needs to be thought of. I havent done such requirements before.
    Please help.
    Webcenter 11.1.1.6

    Contextual events seem to be the best case.
    This way you can trigger whenever you want. Web services can be slow so you can trigger the event when the gathering of the data has been finished and then pass some value on the event.
    An event also has a payload so it's an ideal scenario to add the data from the service on it so you can use it in the other TF's.
    In order to manage the deletion of the TF1, you can use the UI events on the composer: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_page_editor_adv.htm#CHDHHFDJ

  • I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!

    I'm using the sync option for when I'm not near my desktop and no matter what it won't work its telling me my account name or password is not correct and it is!

    This is from my personal experience:
    It almost happens every time I tried to connect with Sync from my Android phone, the window asking me to enter my account name and password always shows up. And if I enter the information, it'll say I have the wrong password, etc. My workaround is to click the "cancel" button. But it does not cancel immediately. The window will stay on for a while (usually a few minutes), then it'll disappear and start connecting to Sync. And it'll connect and sync successfully.
    You can try this workaround but you have to be patient to wait for the window to disappear.
    I don't know what is the cause of this, but it has happened ever since FF4 for Mobile came out. I have searched around and couldn't find any solutions.

  • I once created an account and changed meanwhile my Apple ID. Now, when trying to log in to iCloud, I get the message: "You are already logged in". I cannot get access to the account in the way, that, for example, the options appear on the right hand side.

    What can I do?

    Thank you, pvonk, but:
    To be more precise: I am talking about the logging-in within the System Preferences on my iMac.
    When trying to log in with the old ID, I get no access, i.e. it says "Try again"...-Trying the same with the new one gives me the result I mentioned in my first question...
    Now I found out how to do it: I had to erase all accounts-then I could sign in with my Apple-ID. Thanks again.

  • What method should be used for resizing the particular JTable Column width

    I have a four table. Only one table which are on top have a table header. I want that when user resize the topmost table with a mouse other table colume also be resized automatically. So I want to know that what method should be used for resizing the particular JTable Column width.
    Thanks
    Lalit

    maybe you can implement a interface ComponentListener as well as ComponentAdapter with your topmost Table.
    for example:
    toptable.addComponentListener(
    new ComponentAdapter(){
    public void componentResized(ComponentEvent e){
    table1.setSize(....);
    table2.setSize(....);
    /*Optionally, you must also call function revalidate
    anywhere;*/
    );

  • Best option for protecting the palm wrest area from staining?

    My new white MacBook is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. I currently use a blackbook. Anyway, I have kind of oily skin, and I'm worried about staining on the white plastic on the new computer where my palms rest during use.
    What's the best option for protecting this area? I've seen the Marware protection pack, but I've read quite a few bad reviews on it.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Dave

    I use Mareware's product on my WhiteBook and it is sold at the Apple Store and Apple online. It also comes with a keyboard cover cloth to put on when the Book is closed to protect the screen. The cloth doubles as a soft wipe for the screen. The palm rest is custom fitted for the palm area and is removable. I have removed it twice and stuck it back on. Here's a link: http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=A75 86758&nplm=TJ751LL/A

  • Can i cancel the erase option for icloud?

    How can i cancel the erase option for an ipod touch?

    You can't. Just let it happen and then restore the iPod from backup.
    What you can do is to backup the iPod to iTunes and then turn wifi on and let iCloud erase the iPod.

    Ah.. then I suspect you just need to go to Logic's prefs/Audio and check CoreAudio...
    It has been unchecked somehow...
    Also.. as an aside.. Be careful not to create such large subject names in future when posting here.. They can cause issues with replying to posts in such threads.. due to a bug in the forum software.. so please keep them short and to the point...

  • Why do I not get the checkout option for a pdf type document when clicking on the document link in the SharePoint workflow task?

    We are trying to use workflows to review and edit pdf files in sharepoint 2010. We are having a couple of issues and am hoping someone has the answer.....
    1)  When myself and coworkers click on the pdf document in the library, we get the check out option as expected.  However when we click on the document
    link in a workflow task (on the sharepoint site), the pdf opens as a temporary file and we do not get the check out option.  Why does this happen????? 
    2)  The same thing happens when we click on the document link in the workflow task email;   HOWEVER,  one of our co-workers does get the
    check out option when clicking on the link in the email task.  Why would she get the checkout option using the email and not when clicking on the link in the task list on the sharepoint site ????  We have compared our internet settings and adobe
    settings to ours and found no differences.
    We are using Sharepoint 2010, Windows 7, IE8, Adobe Reader X or XI.  Some of us have Adobe Pro X and have the same issues.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you could not get the checkout option for a pdf type document when clicking on the document link in the SharePoint workflow task.
    I try to reproduce the issue, however, no matter when I click the pdf type document in the library or click on the pdf document link in the workflow task email, it download the pdf doucment and then I can open it.
    It will be better if you can descript how you
    get the check out option as expected when you click on the pdf document in the library.
    Then I upload a
    word type document to the library, no matter when I click the word type document in the library or click on the word document link in the workflow task email, I can open the word document directly and get the check out option as expected.
    I recommend to use the other type docuemts to check whether the check out option works.
    Thank you for your understanding.
