Network analytics startup provides insight into wireline and wireless traffic

Startup Nyansa Inc. today launched a SaaS-based IT network analytics service that can inspect, analyze and correlate wireline and wireless data to help large campus IT shops speed network problem resolution and create performance baselines that can be used for network tuning, gauging the impact of network changes, and justifying new network investments. The CEO and co-founder of the company, which has raised $12 million in venture backing, is Abe Ankumah, onetime Senior Director of Products and Business Operations at Aruba Networks, who went on to become Director of Client Products and Alliances at Meraki.  When Meraki was acquired by Cisco in 2012 Ankumah became Director of Cisco’s Cloud Networking Group, but left in late 2013 to cofound Nyansa with CTO Anand Srinivas and VP of Engineering Daniel Kan.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

On getting your WordPress site hacked; pay now or pay more later

In my last post I posed the question of whether it’s time to look for alternatives to the leading publishing platforms such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, etc., but, truth be told, finding an alternative that can do everything these products do is practically impossible … that is, unless you’re willing to spend money building a customized solution.And that may be the reality of the future; if you don’t build your own solution paying upfront at perhaps 100x the cost (thanks, Keith) of, say, a simple WordPress installation, you’ll windup paying far more than that when you get hacked.

Hackers having a field day – time to rethink your blogging and publishing strategy

A while ago in another post I asked Is it time to give up on WordPress sites? and I got some interesting comments; here’s two that nail the issue and the growing sentiment: Marco Naseef: “extremely modular = extremely vulnerable”David Franks: “… I run a hundred or so Wordpress sites and I'm on the verge of throwing in the towel. / All the big hosts like Bluehost and Hostgator have their shared host platforms controlled by hackers and riddled with malware like dark leach. It's very dispiriting. / I think the days of Wordpress are numbered”To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Failover Mechanism Part- 3

How should Fail over need to be implemented if CPE router is common for
primary and secondary link ? Answer for the same can be found in this post.
This scenario may be refer as DPDLSC (DUAL POP DUAL LAST MILE SINGLE CPE)
Just to mention that traffic control is being done from CPE,ISP is very
much transparent and is not influencing traffic in this scenario.

 

failover mechanism3

 

Considering the above Topology.

FAILOVER MECHANISM —-
1. Outgoing Traffic from CPE is controlled using Local Preference (Higher local Preference, better path)
2. Incoming Traffic to CE is controlled using As Path Prepend ( lower as path count , better path)

 

NORMAL SCENERIO
Primary link is up ,Local preference is high for primary link than secondry and also there is no as-prepend as in secondry

OUTGOING TRAFFIC >>> LAN>CPE>PE1
INCOMING TRAFFIC >>> PE1>CPE>LAN

PRIMARY WAN LINK DOWN(PE1-CPE link down)
OUTGOING TRAFFIC  >>> LAN>CPE>PE2
INCOMING TRAFFIC >>> PE2>CPE>LAN

The CEOs of Google and Oracle met for 6 hours Friday but failed to settle their lawsuit

The CEOs of Oracle and Google met for six hours on Friday but failed to reach a deal to end their massive copyright lawsuit over Google's use of Java in Android."After an earlier run at settling this case failed, the court observed that some cases just need to be tried. This case apparently needs to be tried twice," Magistrate Judge Paul Singh Grewal, who mediated the talks, noted on the court's docket.Oracle accuses Google of illegally copying a key part of the Java platform into its Android operating system, making billions in profit for Google and, according to Oracle, crushing Java’s chance of success in smartphones, tablets and other products.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Chrome extensions will soon have to tell you what data they collect

Google is about to make it harder for Chrome extensions to collect your browsing data without letting you know about it, according to a new policy announced Friday.Starting in mid-July, developers releasing Chrome extensions will have to comply with a new User Data Policy that governs how they collect, transmit and store private information. Extensions will have to encrypt personal and sensitive information, and developers will have to disclose their privacy policies to users.Developers will also have to post a "prominent disclosure" when collecting sensitive data that isn't related to a prominent feature. That's important, because extensions have tremendous power to track users' browsing habits and then use that for nefarious purposes.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
