Split A Single 4 - Pair Ethernet Connection Into Two 2 - Pair Ethernet Connections
Dec 28, 2011
I've got a router on which I run a backup/media/print server, a couple of computers and a voip box. My router has only four ethernet lan sockets which are thus all occupied by the above, but I need to attach at least one further device b
Secondly, could a splitter such as >> this one << do the job? I'm guessing this basically split a single 4-pair ethernet connection into two 2-pair ethernet connections.

We have a pair of N7K distribution switches connected to a pair of N7K Aggregation switches.We run vPC on both pairs of n7k's.
-n7k-d1 has two interfaces in a Port-Channel connecting to n7k-a1 & n7k-a2. (PC1)
-n7k-d2 also has two interfaces in a Port-Channel connecting to n7k-a1 & n7k-a2. (PC2)
My problem is that Spanning-Tree is blocking PC2 and all traffic from n7k-d2 is traversing the Peer-Link before reaching the Aggregation layer. Is this the best design for connecting two pairs of n7k's with vPC or if a better design would be to connect all 4 links into the same Port-Channel and vPC?

We inherited a soundbooth configuration Current Configuration:
1. Networked Projector interfaces directly with a PC through a second NIC
2. We can then control the projector through a web interface via the PC and the IP of the projector.
Desired New Configuration:
1. Maintain current configuration - but ADD a second computer (an iMac)
2. I want to split the connection coming from the projector to the 2 computers so that we can interface with the projector from both computers.
I was thinking I would need a switch but didn't know if there is any configuring I would need to do to get it to work.

The school I work at upgraded to Cisco Catalyst 2960-S switches, all connected to each other via fiber. I am seeing a problem with one such connection. Cisco Network Assistant showed a "4-Warning" regarding the fiber link port: port was disabled because it was fluctuating between up and down too rapidly. Possible hardware problem, resolve and re-enable. (I'm paraphasing the message...it was 'acknowledged', and I can't bring it back up.)
This message was only showing on our "SV-Copy-Rm" switch's port 49. The other end, on "SV-Maint-Rm" port 49 showed a normal green link status.
Using Internet Explorer, I logged onto SV-Copy-Rm switch's Device Manager, and I first tried disabling/re-enabling port 49 on SV-Copy-Rm. It came back up blinking yellow and showing "port has bad link" when I cursor hovered over port 49. This continued for a few minutes, followed by port 49 being disabled again.
The current thing I'm trying is swapping the connection on both ends to a spare pair of fibers. I'm pretty certain I've swapped to the same pair on both ends, however, now neither switch shows an active link. I've disabled/enabled the ports on both ends, but still no link.
Question: How do I re-establish the above link? (The active connection has 'fallen back' to the designated ethernet Cat 5e connection and is currently running with that connection.)

I have only one computer right now.Had two, and got very weak signal to laptop (since discarded) upstairs from Linksys g 54Mbits downstairs at main desktop computer desktop.I have tried three different kinds of 54Mbits wifi routers, all with no success.I'm going to get my wife a new wifi laptop for Christmas, and she wants to be able to use it all over the house.The 54Mbits will cover the downstairs, but, based on previous efforts, I am thinking of putting my modem in the garage, where the cable enters my house, and using a splitter on the cable coming out of the modem to make two IN cables, using one cable for my comp and a 54Mbits router (for downstairs coverage), and putting a second wifi router on the end of the upstairs cable, to cover the upstairs rooms.My house has cable outlets in every room, so I won't have to do any wiring.
I plan to leave the routers on all the time (at this time) subject to how much of a bandwidth drop they cause. I have a 100 Mbps connection, and I play games, so I'd like to retain as much bandwidth as possible. I assume the two "on" wifi routers will pull zero bandwidth as long as the laptop is off. (??)Or maybe I should just try an "n" wifi router, since they get twice the distance, and forget the cable splitter idea.

My VDSL subscription will include both Internet, and TV. The supplied router then makes them available via two separate ports with different address ranges. LAN cables then connect to the computers and TV decoder from these ports.In the house there is a single Ethernet cable already running through the walls from the basement to the lounge on the ground floor. I want to consolidate both the Internet and TV data onto this cable and then split it apart again at the other side to go to a TV decoder and a wifi router.I don't want the VDSL router to be in the lounge as I will also have a TV decoder and Internet connection in the basement.I am renting the property so I can't run new cables through the walls etc.

For some weeks I have been trying to pair my Samsung Galaxy S2 with my Lenovo Thankpad SL500. The consistent message is "Unable to pair with [laptop]. Incorrect PIN or PASSWORD.
Well which is? PIN? or PASSWORD? - or does the system not know, so it's taking a guess? If it doesn't know, how can I possibly know?
Having read many articles about his on the www, I am still none the wiser as to what is causing this. What's wrong with the PIN or PASSWORD - is it too hot, or too cold? Wrong font face, colour or size? Wrong latitiude, longitude or elevation? Wrong time of day or month? Are the auspices in general not favourable? Am I facing in the wrong direction as I type? Have I chosen the wrong weight/color of paper for my printer? Is my body odor unacceptable? Is the length of grass in my lawn not quite right? Oh, the number of options is so large - where does one start?
Oh, and before I forget - assuming I can find what constitutes a correct PIN or PASSWORD, where does one set it? btw pairing this phone with the media player in my 10 year old car works immediately and flawlessly!

I have a long 2 pair cat 5 cable which I want to use to connect a ADSL modem to my desktop (located in a different room). I took the cable to few local computer dealers but none of them could connect an RJ-45 connector to it. They can only connect a 4 pair cat 5 cable. Connect a 2 pair cat 5 Ethernet cable to a RJ-45 connector. Kindly use simple language. I have attached an image of the cable for your reference. [URL]

We would like to install a pair of ACS 5.4 apliance as primary /backup in our two datacentres.I have some question regarding degin.
1- We have 800+ network device to monitor , can we install by range of address instead of instlling one by one in device host database ?
2- Do We have to install all 800 device first on Primary and then again on backup or Primary will replicate to backup server?
3- We do not have real IP address yet, so if we built with dummy address and make them pair and all the database sync, then when we change their IP address, will the distributed primary pair will have any issue with backup ACS server?

I have 2 5508 that are currently running as active with 150 licenses each. I want to go to HA SSO can 100 of the licenses be relicensed to the primary since it only requires 50 licenses to convert an active license 5508 to standby HA SSO?

I come home from work on my lunch break to discover that my dog spilled her food on my router and I'm pretty sure thats how she discovered that cat5 cables are fun to saw on with her teeth, she chewed clean through 4 of them...she also chewed through the power cable and somehow cheated death in that regard.
After repairing and crimping all ethernet cables and substituting a brand new one for good measure, the DIR-615 will not see any ethernet connections, ie the lights on the front do not come on when the cable is plugged in, however I plugged my internet Cat5 into it and the little globe lights up saying that it is getting the internet. The wireless works fine as I connected to it with my phone. I know I repaired the cables properly but to rule that out I have used a brand new un-chewed cable and the router won't see that either. Is it possible that something was fried when the dog chewed through the power cable?

My colleague wants to use our load balancers for VPN. We are coming off 3030s which are serving remote access IPSec as well as terminating LAN to LAN tunnels for like 7 sites.I want to secure the 5540s behind our front end 5585Xs when we move prod to the new dc.We have no immediate need for clientless but need to support osx lion and IPSec client does not. Thats all that's driving this effort currently. I already reminded mgmt that the 3030 and the IPSec client are end of life.I just think anyconnect is the better solution based on current skillset and the popularity of the solution.

I am converting my home phone jacks to network enabled jacks. The house phone system was wired with Cat 5e. All the wall jacks are terminated properly with RJ-45 connectors. At the junction box outside I have connected the 4 pairs to their color equivalent.I have also purchased a "patch board" to terminate and combine all the wiring in one spot.Once all the wires are connected, I tested the wiring (Sperry cable tester).It tells me there is a short in 1-2. I've made it this far and I'm really close, I just need to know which pair I need to focus on. Is pair 1-2 Orange/OrangeWhite, Green/GreenWhite, etc?

I have a running ASA5520 in my network and recently we plan to add a failover pair as a standby unit for the running asa. Both of the ASA have the same specs and software. the only thing that the soon to be secondary ASA does not have is the AnyConnect Essential license. is it still possible for the unit to be the standby unit?
below is the license capture from both of the unit.
Running ASA:
Licensed features for this platform:
Maximum Physical Interfaces : Unlimited
Maximum VLANs : 150

We have recently got 2 of our Cisco ASA 5520 firewalls through RMA. These are supposed to run in a Active/Active Failover Pair. There was only 1 RMA request that was opened for both the firewalls. We have received only 1 Activation key for this RMA request for both the firewalls. Just want to check with you if this Activation key will work on both firewalls or do we need a get a seperate one for the other box.

I'm trying to set up remote access IPsec VPN on a pair of ASA 5540 without much success. I can connect with a client on the outside, and when I try to ping something on the inside I can see the ping requests reach the target but the answers don't come back to the VPN client. I've tried with different NAT rules without success.

I bought this wireless router about a year+ ago, and it's just great. It's attached to the cable modem "downstairs" and right now it supports 2 smartphones wirelessly plus an ancient wired cable to an "upstairs" home office.
I'd like to improve overall performance with a wireless bridge to a gigabit hub in the upstairs office. I'd also like to add a second wireless bridge so I can stream movies to a box that would be attached to my TV, which does not have built-in wireless access.
Trendnet seems to have some interesting wireless bridges, but in the past I had a Trendnet wireless router with really, reallly bad software.

I have a pair of ASA5510 currently running as a failover pair. For some reason we need to move one of the firewall to another site, is there any best practice on splitting up the failover pair then I can re-configure the secondary unit offline?
I'm thinking to power down the secondary unit, unplug it from the network totally then erase the configuration on the secondary unit on console so I can re-configure it. For the primary unit, I will disable the faiolver config by "no failover" on the primary unit. Is that necessarily all thing for splitting up the failover cluster?
Hardware: ASA5510, 256 MB RAM, CPU Pentium 4 Celeron 1600 MHz
Internal ATA Compact Flash, 256MB
BIOS Flash M50FW080 @ 0xffe00000, 1024KB(code)

I have one ASA 5520 up and runnign, with complete configuration (ssl customization, DAP, CSD...) with bunch of files on flash drive, etc. I am using software 8.3Now I received one 5520 that I want to use failover, it is with 8.3, I will make sure that ASDM is also the same on both...
So, my question is how to make my running ASA to become primary and to push all info (config, files on flash, etc) to new ASA?
I found few examples, but nothing tells me how to force one ASA to be the source for sync.

I am a bit unclear as to the upgrade path I should take - I have 2 ASA 5510s in active/standby running 8.0(4)34 and would like to upgrade to 8.2.5. Do I need to first upgrade to 8.0.(5) before upgrading to 8.2.5, or can I just jump straight to 8.2.5?

I am trying to setup prime LMS 4.2 with a pair of soft appliance. As I understand that HA is possible with the use of veritas/vmware for windows/solaris; I was wondering what are the possible high availability options available with a pair of prime LMS appliances? Can it form active/secondary with data synchronization/data redundancy of the LMS on top of the traditional backup/restore of the lms?

how to install a certificate (.p7b and .crf) on my second ACE in a HA pair.
On ACE01 i generated a CSR and gave the details to our SSL provider, they provided the certificates and i imported them. All good there.
How can i install the same SSL on ACE02 if i haven't generated a CSR on my backup devicde, or do i generate a CSR and import the same certificate?
Since bringing the ACE's into HA all contexts have sync'd and the backup ACE is in 'hot standby' state. But one context fails the sync and i think this is because the SSL certificate is not installed correctly on the second ACE02.

I'll be upgrading an HA pair of ASA 5520s next week, and wanted to clarify the procedure. I read "Upgrading an Active/Standby Failover Configuration" at [URL] which suggests placing the image on both units, updating boot statements, then issuing failover reload-standby. But I was wondering if there's a way to a way to be a bit safer. I'd like to modify the standby unit, without affecting the config on the active. So I'd like to modify the boot statement on the standby without modifying the active config. That way incase there's a problem and the active reboots, it won't upgrade.
Can I modify the config on the standby without affecting the active? Then I'd like to test the newly upgraded unit with our production traffic. Would that simply be no failover active, and then once the standby becomes active -- test traffic? Once everything is okay, I would upgrade the second unit, and fail traffic back.
