The 10 Cisco IOS Router file management commands you must know
Fri, 26 Dec 2008 15:26:39 +0000
This month I posted another great article over at TechRepublic entitled The 10 Cisco IOS Router file management commands you must know. In this article, I cover how to navigate the Cisco IOS when it comes to managing file systems. Really, it works a lot like the Windows command line. Learn how to view, rename, ...]
Gatekeeper - Viazone behaviour
Sun, 10 Sep 2006 18:58:16 +0000
How to trigger via zone behaviour?
Local zones - always enable outvia on the destination zone
Remote zones - use invia or outvia on the remote zone
Via-zone gatekeepers differ from legacy gatekeepers in how LRQ and ARQ messages are used for call routing. Using via-zone gatekeepers will maintain normal clusters and functionality. Legacy gatekeepers examine incoming LRQs ...]

Your boss wants the following information displayed whenever someone connects to router r1 via telnet:
“This device belongs to cciepursuit.com It is most likely poorly protected and congfigured. Hack away!!!”
Telnet users must login to r1 with a username of ‘TELNET’ password of ‘CISCO’. Your boss then wants the following message displayed:
“Congratulations on hacking into r1.cciepursuit.com via ...]

Pro MPEG Forum CoP3 or SMPTE 2022
Pro-MPEG Forum Code of Practice #3 release 2 (CoP3) or SMPTE 2022-2007, describe how MPEG-2 Transport Streams (MPEG-2 TS) should be encapsulated when sent over IP networks. It also describes a forward error correction (FEC) mechanism that can be used to correct errors than can occur during the transport. This article will explain how video content can be sent over IP networks and how errors can be corrected using CoP3 FEC.
ASI to IP
All MPEG-2 transport streams shall be encapsulated in RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) according to RFC 1889 in conjunction with RFC 2250. Transport service is provided jointly by UDP (checksum and multiplexing) and RTP (sequencing and time stamping / jitter removing). RTP always uses an even UDP port number.
- The overall size of RTP payload must not exceed the MTU (Maximum Transfer Unit) in order to prevent RTP packets fragmentation around the network
- Short packets induce high overhead
The time stamp field in the RTP header is based on the PCR values from MPEG-2 with a resolution of 90 Khz.
Streams must include:
- Program Association Table (PAT)
- Program Map Table (PMT)
RTCP (Real-time Transport Control Protocol) can be included to periodically inform the sending side about network quality (e.g. lost packets, delay, jitter, etc.).
At the output of the IP network, the delivered Transport Stream must be fully ISO/IEC 13818-1 compliant (40ms maximum jitter, 1 artifact every hour, etc.).
What about error protection ?
Code of Practice #3 describes a Forward Error Correction (FEC) method for protection against errors in delivering professional MPEG-2 TS data over IP networks. With that method implemented in IP video gateays, packet errors, out of order packets, network jitter and delay can be compensated.
FEC data insertion is done in real-time along with TS over IP encapsulation: Protection data is calculated and embedded in regular RTP packets with a specific payload type.
It relies on simple XOR arithmetics:
if F=A B C, then if only A,B,F are present, C can be recovered.
A FEC matrix is generated and transmitted on two separate UDP ports:
FEC columns on UDP port + 2
FEC rows on UDP port + 4
FEC Matrix is computed as follows:
FEC packets can be computed for both columns and lines. One FEC packet is able to recover one lost RTP packet in a column/row. If several packets are lost in the same column for instance, FEC packet for rows can be used to re-generate the packet.
There is new version (ver5) of the R&S workbook vol 1. IE completely changed their style in this version of the workbook. The only bad thing I am seeing is they could be more detailed in their explanations but it's only a BETA.

In less than 7 years, Mercedes-Benz plans to ditch petroleum-powered vehicles from its lineup. Focusing on electric, fuel cell, and biofuels, the company is revving up research in alternative fuel sources and efficiency.
The German car company has a few new power-trains in the line-up that European journalists have had the opportunity to test out in the Mercedes facility in Spain. One vehicle includes the F700, powered by a DiesOtto engine that combines HCCI and spark ignition to get nearly the same efficiency as diesel, but minus the expensive after-treatment systems.
The engine can run on biofuels, and we may have a purchasable vehicle by 2010 -- a year that seems to be popular for the debut of a lot of new alternative fuel car models, making ’08 and ’09 simply thumb-twiddling years for consumers. I don’t know, maybe car makers just like the roundness of “2010.” The company’s next big step will be to launch a Smart electric car which is fuel and emission-free.
Anyway, Mercedes is looking into electric vehicles, both battery-powered and fuel-cell powered. Not only are models in development, but we’ve also seen the company making steps towards its zero-petroleum goal right now, from better cabs in London to li-ion battery improvements. The company also has about 100 Smart electric cars undergoing testing in London, with that favorite 2010 year as the projected market release date.
Mercedes is making serious investments, already putting nearly $4 million into the pot of its long-term Sustainable Mobility plan, with another nearly $1.4 billion going in before 2014.
While car models may be able to run on fuels other than gasoline or diesel, we have yet to find a method of both running and producing vehicles entirely free of fossil fuels. I’m waiting for a mainstream car line that creates renewable fuel, clean-running vehicles out of 100% recycled materials in plants run on 100% renewable, clean power … Will I even be alive when that finally happens? I have hope.

Vegetarians can be referred to as true fanatics. On the other hand, they are seriously misled in their beliefs. Practically nobody argues with them, since it is really difficult to convince a vegetarian of his or her self-deception. May be that is the reason why the vegetarian movement develops so actively around the globe and continues to recruit many new members.
