Anyone familiar with Marconi equipment? I work with ATM quite a bit and am trying to find out how to look at the bandwidth utilization of a Virtual Path. This particular instance is dealing with a BXR48000. I know with most Marconi switches you can just do a "vpt sh" command to see what is being...

Cool thanks a bunch. I looked around on the internet a lot but didn't find anything quite this in depth.

I recently downloaded Ethereal Network monitor just to mess around with it. When I captured the packet traffic on my NIC, while I was uploading a file to my webserver using the browser based file manager, I noticed that about 1 in 4 packets were being retransmitted. Is that normal? I also...

I checked the logs today and I didn't see anything out of the ordinary. Thanks for the suggestion though. If anyone else has anything to add that would be greatly appreciated. Jon

not that i'm aware of. I didn't check the logs personally. I will have to ask my coworkers on monday. The wierd thing is we have plenty of marconi equipment running ethernet and ATM as edge devices and plenty more running as the ATM backbone and none were effected. I will look into that on...

Has anyone ever run into this problem? Our network has 5 Cisco switches 4 of which are logically connected through a Marconi switch fabric. The other is in a completely different location only connected logically through an ATM network of Marconi equipment. These switches are edge devices that...

Thanks for the replies Diancecht, sedj, and Timw. Just wanted to make sure I understood entirely. Jon

i guess what i am really asking is if you use a typcast can't you access the methods of the ancestor class? if i am not wrong then what would be the point of not using a typecast? maybe to just simplify the code if it is unnecessary to access the JPanel methods. thanks for the reply. it is very...

I am just curious. I am learning Java on my own and the latest book I bought tends to use a typecast of JPanel for the contentPane and I am wondering: since typcasting with JPanel gives you more options like setting the border for the whole JFrame, among others, why would you ever just use...

Ah I see. Thanks for the info. Jon

I am learning Java on my own at the moment and the author of the book I am using created his own class with input methods. He uses methods all based around a method called getChar() which calls the System.in.read() method. All other methods he created like the getInt() and getWord() call on the...

I appreciate the suggestions. I am trying to make a more sleak interface though so that the entire record as a whole can be selected, and highlighted, for easier viewing and then double-clicked to open if wanted. The suggestions offered will work just not the way I am looking for. Thanks again...

I am not sure how to explain this but I will try as hard as I can. I have a table that has several columns of information, of course. I can obviously use a datasheet view and create a form that lists everything in an easy to read list. what I am trying to do however is make these listed records...

Ok great advice. I will do that. Thanks again for everything guys/gals.

cool, thanks again for all the great advice. What do you think about hardware firewalls? I have a Linksys router with a simple built in firewall. Would the combination of that and a windows firewall be as good as a retail software firewall?
