    Telnet Confusion

    I have 2 routers in different physical locations, each router has 2 WAN interfaces from separate ISPs. All the WAN interfaces are up and carry traffic. My problem arises when I try to telnet to either router from a different location (i.e. home). For the sake of discussion, let's say the IP...

    Passing traffic from HWIC-4ESW to WAN(s)

    Hello again, So I have a semi-complicated setup that I'm trying to get working one piece at a time. I've also posted in another thread about load balancing, but before I get to that, I want to ensure that basic connectivity is working. Basically what I have is a 2811 with a HWIC-4ESW that I...

    Load Balancing over unequal links

    Hello again, I have a 2811 I'm setting up with both a T1 and 5Mbps DSL WAN interface. Virtually all the traffic through the router will be to provide Internet connectivity to a group of users on a LAN behind it. I know that IGRP (and EIGRP) include the bandwidth of the connection as part of...

    Rate-Limit Command

    Hello, I want to restrict traffic on my LAN so that no one user uses too much bandwidth. I understand that the rate-limit command is a good way to do this. Let's say that my users are assigned addresses in a 192.168 network and I want to restrict all the IP's in that range to 200k of bandwidth...

    VPN + Local Access with 2 NIC's

    I have a machine that I need to have access to both a customers network through Nortel Contivity VPN client and to our local LAN. I thought that I could accomplish this by putting an additional NIC in the machine. Essentially I want 1 interface to be used for the Nortel VPN and one not so that...

    Make XP Shut Down Menu look like 2000

    I've changed all the style and start menu options to classic but there is still the shut down menu that has the XP cartoonish look. It has those big buttons that say Shut Down, etc instead of the 2000 style with a drop down list. I hate it! How do I make it look like 2000? I know I've done it...

    Memory Usage

    I'm trying to simulate a problem when SQL Server is using a lot of RAM. I know I can limit how much it uses but I'm trying to determine if it using too much memory is even the problem. What types of actions against SQL Server cause it to use a lot of memory? Connections, Update statements, etc...

    Network Monitoring Suggestions

    Hello, Not sure if this is the best forum. But anyway... I'd like some suggestions for what's worked the best for others for monitoring LAN traffic. I have a T1 serving mostly Internet access. I'd like to be able to monitor total WAN bandwidth usage as well as individual bandwidth usage...

    Router recommendation

    Hello, I need to provide internet access for an internal LAN of approx. 50 users. I want a router that can handle this amount of traffic for possibly up to a full T1. I would like it to support VPN for me (only) to remotely access the LAN. Any suggestions on hardware and/or setting this up...

    Memory Usage

    We have a system that uses SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition. It runs on a single processor system with 1GB of RAM. As a heavy load gets placed our service, it starts to perform poorly. We believe it is because SQL Server has allocated a large amount of memory to itself (300 MB). Obviously...

    How to determine NATed address

    Does anyone know of a way to do this while behind a router NATing your traffic? I want to write a program that will determine this address but can't think of a way to do it locally. Assuming I can't ask the router what it's public interface address is and can't go to a site like whatismyip.com...

    Booting with 2 RAID arrays

    Hello, I have an ASUS A7N8X-E which has an on-board SATA RAID controller. To this I have attached 2 drives in a RAID 0 array and currently have my OS installed to it. I also have a PCI RAID controller card that I want to attach two additional drives to keep data and my page file on. I can...

    Simple Switch Question

    Given the following topology: Client 1<-->Switch 1<-->Switch 2<-->Client 2 If Client 1 wanted to send a packet to Client 2, what happens when the packet arrives at Switch 1? It seems to me that Switch 1 doesn't have any knowledge (ARP entry?) of Client 2. So in this case is it forced to act...

    Inbound/Outbound Traffic Separation

    Anyone know if you can have two internet connections coming into a server and specify that you want all outbound traffic to use connection A, but you want all reponses or requests (inbound traffic) to come in on connection B? It doesn't seem like it should be that hard. Isn't part of a standard...

    SQL 2000 Access Permissions problem

    Hello, I have a computer running Windows XP. I have recently installed SQL Server 2000 and Visual Studio.Net. I started building a database enabled application. I can run and debug the app locally from my machine no problem. However, if I am in a remote location and try to access one of the...

    variable reassignment

    If I declare a variable, such as an int and set it equal to an initial value, will it get reset if it is in a loop to it's initial value on each iteration. For example, consider the following code: for(int i=0; i<whatever; i++) { int j = 0; some other code that changes the value of j... } Now...

    Optimal RAID configuration

    I plan to implement a RAID 0 array with 2 20GB disks on my system soon. My motherboard has 2 IDE channels that support this RAID level. Would putting disk 1 on IDE channel A and disk 2 on IDE channel B produce noticably better results than putting them as master and slave on the same channel...
