Frequently Asked Questions

Will FreeS/WAN work on a VLAN (802.1q) network?

Introduction to FreeS/WAN
Yes, FreeSwan works fine, though some network drivers have problems with jumbo sized ethernet frames. If you used interfaces=%defaultroute you do not need to change anything, but if you specified an interface (eg eth0) then remember you must change that to reflect the VLAN interface (eg eth0.2 for VLAN ID 2). The "eepro100" module is known to be broken, use the e100 driver for those cards instead (included in 2.4 as 'alternative driver' for the Intel EtherExpressPro/100.

Will FreeS/WAN work on unusual network hardware?

Introduction to FreeS/WAN
IPsec is designed to work over any network that IP works over, and FreeS/WAN is intended to work over any network interface hardware that Linux supports. If you have working IP on some unusual interface -- perhaps Arcnet, Token Ring, ATM or Gigabit Ethernet -- then IPsec should "just work".

What is FreeS/WAN?

Introduction to FreeS/WAN
FreeS/WAN is a Linux implementation of the IPsec protocols, providing security services at the IP (Internet Protocol) level of the network.

Q06: What is 802.1Q VLAN?

faq_gigabit
The Virtual LAN (VLAN) function is a group of ports that may spread around the network but communicate as though they belong to one subnet. By using IEEE 802.1Q compliant VLAN, all ports can be reorganized into separate broadcast domains for security reasons and reduce bandwidth occupation instead of using routers to divide whole network into subnets.

What is a VLAN, and why is it Secure?

TurnKey Colocation Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows multiple colocated servers to behave as if they were connected to a single network segment to directly and securely communicate. VLAN's are very useful for Colocated servers which need more than 1 IP address for the same server (such as if you plan to host multiple web sites or applications that need multiple IPs). VLAN's separate the resources and servers of other users in the colocation facility making them invisible to each of the other VLAN members.

Can an analyzer see all of the segments of my network (can a protocol analyzer work over a WAN)?

Network Analysis Protocol Analyzer - FAQs
No. Protocol analyzers can only view and collect traffic from the segment or switch where the analyzer is located. To capture and analyze traffic from another segment (local multi-segment LAN or remote WAN) or another switch, a distributed or multi-segment analyzer is required.

What is a Wide Area Network (WAN)?

NEOnet - Frequently Asked Questions Information and Communic...
A wide area network (WAN) is a computer network spanning a relatively large geographical area. Typically, a WAN links two or more local-area networks (LANs) with a dedicated telecommunications connection. Computers connected to a wide-area network are often connected through public networks, such as the telephone system. They can also be connected through leased fibre optic lines or satellites. The largest WAN in existence is the Internet.

What is IEEE 802.1Q ?

Technical Support--FAQ
VLAN-Tagging - Defines Ethernet frame tags which carry VLAN information. It allows switches to assign end-stations to different VLANs, and defines a standard way for VLANs to communicate across switched networks.

How does network Bolo work?

Bolo Long FAQ
Peter Lewis, Mac network guru and author of Bolo Finder, contributed to this pseudo-technical explanation. If you just want to know how to play, skip ahead to the sections on Boloing over Appletalk or the Internet.] Unlike most other network games, Bolo is not a client-server system. Bolo forms a network of Macs by linking them in a ring where one player sends packets of game information to a neighbor, who in turn sends packets to the next neighbor on the ring, and so on.

From which network interface should I enter in order to configure LB-8000, from WAN or LAN side?

Neue Seite 1
You will be able to configure LB-8000 through either WAN or LAN port. However, please note that only one user is allowed to access web GUI at the same time.

Can Document Locator be deployed on a Wide Area Network (WAN)?

Document Management FAQs | Document Locator
ColumbiaSoft Document Locator is capable of running on wide area networks. If you have broadband or T1 connections between sites, you can run Document Locator and access all of the rich features. However, if you have limited bandwidth between sites, we recommend using a remote desktop solution such as Terminal Services from Microsoft or Document Locator Web Tools.

Can we manage the terminal using WAN network ? If yes how?

FAQs,Time attendance recorders fingerprints biometrics cards...
WAN yes it is possible to run TimeScan in WAN network. Gateway of the TimeScan must be configured properly as per WAN network requirements. If done properly it should be also possible to connect TimeScan on the internet. Firewalls are the major problems as TimeScan uses non-standard ports for communication which might be banned in your firewall.

What is a VLAN ? What is its purpose ?

Ethernet Direct
A technique that allows switches to create a single collision domain logically even though the nodes are on separate network segments physically. The benefit is that instead of installing physical hardware to segment a network, which can be difficult on a factory floor or water treatment plant, VLANs can do it logically. It allows fast response over several network segments by connecting to remote devices through a software implementation. Managed switches are required.

Can CMS-Pro operate on a Local Area Network (LAN) or a Wide Area Network (WAN)?

Intelligent Banking Solutions - Q&A MIS
CMS-Pro, ARM-Pro and CARM-Pro are native Windows? 32-bit applications that run in Windows 2000 or Windows XP with the latest service packs applied to the operating system and all prerequisite Microsoft products. Customers who are managing about 500 delinquent accounts on a daily basis should allow approximately 3 gigabytes of hard disk space during their first five years of using CARM-Pro.

What kind of IP Network Camera will work with your software?

Willing Webcam FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
The program works with IP cameras that have the jpeg output. If you have such a cam, you should find the jpeg file name the html code for viewing the cam (you can get it while viewing the picture from the cam in your browser), for example: image.jpg

How does removing a network work across machine reboots?

MultiNet Software: FAQ
On rebooting the machine, MultiNet starts connecting to all networks, including the ones that were removed. You should explicitly add the networks you had removed, and remove them again to get back to a consistent state. No. MultiNet stops MEDIA_DISCONNECT messages from going up (read paper for details). So, you will be unable to monitor the state of the network by looking at the Network Connections window. We recommend using "multinethelper.

Q How do I configure my network settings to work with Internet Texoma?

Internet Texoma FAQ
A Detailed instructions are available in Section 6 of Internet Texoma's How To directory on this site.

Why does my 3Com® PCI network card not work with my Micron computer?

Frequently Asked Questions for FreeBSD 2.X, 3.X, 4.X and 5.X
Certain Micron motherboards have a non-conforming PCI BIOS implementation that does not configure PCI devices at the addresses reported. This causes grief when FreeBSD boots. More information on this problem is available at URL: http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html#micron Yes. SMP is not enabled in the GENERIC kernel, so you must recompile your kernel to enable SMP. Take a look at /sys/i386/conf/LINT to learn what options to put in your kernel config file.
