What is your subnet address if your ip is89.125.27.81?

The subnet address for this ISP could be almost anything, depending on how the ISP breaks up a larger network pool into a smaller one. The default subnet would be 255.0.0.0, but that is not very likely with an ISP. You can check by using the 'ipconfig' command in Windows to see the subnet mask, or 'ifconfig' if using Linux.

How do you setup Port forwarding on ADSL surecom router EP-4707SX for web server mail server and ftp server?

I suggest that you cannot!

I have spent the whole evening trying to do just that.

Just typing 192.168.1.2 into the address bar should cause Apache to display your homepage.

First discover your TCP - grc.com shields up is good for that.

Then type that number like 34.45.67.123 into the address bar of your browser.

You should get the login screen of your router same like 192.168.1.1.

If you do not than your ISP is not allowing you to run a web server at least not on port 80.

If you do than it should be simple to port forward 34.45.67.123 to 192.168.1.2

or whoever you have become on your intranet.

192.168.1.1 (or 34.45.67.123 or whoever you are) > advanced > port forwarding.

There should be many possibilities like Servers > Web server > Add > Apply

The router should then be accepting 34.45.67.123 and translating it to 192.168.1.2

It does not it still causes the login screen to be displayed. Why?

Maybe you need to save as the entire router configuration and restart.

But if you do this you may have a different TCP.

grc.com shields up does warn you that port 80 is open, so something has happened.

I suggest that there is a bug in the software of the Surecom router.

I hope that this helps.

How do you locate a network connection port on a switch from a network port?

The fancy way is to use an expensive peice of equipment that sends tones through a network jack that can be scanned by another piece of equpment near the switch.

Another way is to have a helper plug and unplug the network jack while you go to the switch and see which light blinks on and off as your friend does that.

Before you start, you must know login and pass for your server/switch to "Telnet". Go to Start: Run: type "cmd". Type in "ipconfig" to find out the gateway and IP address you're connected to. If you need your Mac address as well because of an issue with dynamic IP addresses and yours changing on you for some reason, type "ipconfig /all" with a space before the "/". It will show "all" your IP settings, hence the "all". Now that you have your Gateway address, IP address, and Mac address (optional), you're ready to start. After hitting "enter" on the "ipconfig (/all)", or just on a new blank line, type "telnet 'Gateway Address'" ie: "telnet 10.0.8.1" (that is mine). Type in Login and Pass for your server/switch to be connected to this device. At anytime during a command, you may hit the "tab" key and it will show you all of your next available commands. For instance, we'll be using the "show" command. If you type "show", then hit the tab key, a list of next available commands will pop up and your cursor will now be on the next line after this list with "show" still appearing. After your login, type "show iparp". This is a list of all the IP addresses connected to any device within your gateway settings (any switch connected to and on the rack which you've telnetted into). Now you're looking for your IP or Mac address, both if your IP stays constant (it should). Simply hit the "tab" key until you find one of these addresses. After you're located say "10.0.10.2" (my IP on my VLAN, it's in the "10.0.8.1 (Gateway) - 10.*.*.* range") on the far right side it will show which switch/port you are connected to. Mine shows 5:2, I am on blade 5, port 2. A blade is a switch or device connected on a particular rack. A rack is the unit to which all the switches and possibly server are connected to. For each new rack the numbering sequence starts over for those sets of blades. Here is the challenge, you must know where to start counting from, "where blade (switch device) 1 starts". In our rack we have a "patch panel" on top of our "power and data" switches. Although these devices are connected to me in some way (runs from the patch panel, to power and data, to the switch, to network drop in office, to my phone, to my computer.) the actual switch the "5:2" was referring to above doesn't start until further down in the rack. One I know because our switches are labeled with the IP address, but also because a patch panel has all the individual wires connected in the back (it's patched in), and the power and data are just for power and data. These devices are very simple and just perform their own functions. The "switch" you are trying to locate, possibly a 3Com or Extreme brand, is what connects two different things. The switch you're looking for, being your Gateway IP, is what runs to the network drop, to your phone, or your computer, what have you. It may take some practice as it did in my case, but after you learn to recognize where to start counting from, you'll be able to find port "5:2" in no time.

Why do persistent connections generally improve performance compared to nonpersistent connections?

  • Less CPU and memory usage (because fewer connections are open simultaneously)
  • Enables HTTP pipelining of requests and responses
  • Reduced network congestion (fewer TCP connections)
  • Reduced latency in subsequent requests (no handshaking)
  • Errors can be reported without the penalty of closing the TCP connection

Panasonic tc-65v10 is it internet wireless?

No.. It has an ethernet port. You will need to use a wireless adapter such as the LINKSYS|WGA600N uf you want wireless connectivity.

Explain the working of Simple mail transfer protopcol?

SMTP is based on end-to-end delivery: An SMTP client contacts the destination host's SMTP server directly, on well-known port 25, to deliver the mail. It keeps the mail item being transmitted until it has been successfully copied to the recipient's SMTP. This is different from the store-and-forward principle that is common in many mailing systems, where the mail item can pass through a number of intermediate hosts in the same network on its way to the destination and where successful transmission from the sender only indicates that the mail item has reached the first intermediate hop.

In various implementations, it is possible to exchange mail between the TCP/IP SMTP mailing system and the locally used mailing systems. These applications are called mail gateways or mail bridges. Sending mail through a mail gateway can alter the end-to-end delivery specification, because SMTP only guarantees delivery to the mail-gateway host, not to the real destination host located beyond the TCP/IP network. When a mail gateway is used, the SMTP end-to-end transmission is host-to-gateway, gateway-to-host, or gateway-to-gateway; the behavior beyond the gateway is not defined by SMTP.

Is broadband a way of making wireless more secure?

No. Broadband is just a signaling method. It has nothing to do with the security, or lack thereof, of wireless networking. Wireless has very limited security since it is open to the public.

What are benefits of setting up a vpn?

greater security

What is the purpose of network management?

Network management is a system that companies use to make sure all computers work together. I believe each computer is connected to one mainframe, so the network allows all the computers to use the same mainframe at the same time.

What is the purpose of a modem is to?

A modem converts a digital signal into an analog signal. Allowing us to use a phone line as a transmission medium.

Advantages of setting up ip address manually?

In a LAN, setting up an ip address manually (which makes it a static ip address) ensures that the ip address won't be automatically changed on that machine. Makes it ideal for servers or administrative computers.

Can fiber optic cable be used for transmitting light from a source to another point around the opaque object?

Fiber Optic is normally used for carrying data as light; I doubt it'd be useful for actually transmitting coherent light.

What are the benefits of having a server administration?

Benefits of having a server administration are: Peace of mind. You don_Ü_t worry about the details of managing the platform, and network performance and availability.

What is a purpose of a hub in network?

the hub is used to add a 2 or 3 systems in single network

Why are repeaters used between computers?

Because - even in fibre-optic cable, distance brings attenuation of the signal. Repeaters boost the data stream to provide a constant signal level.

How the twist in twisted wire cable reduce the noise effect?

The twists in the wire cancels the magnetic coupling (or nearly all of depending on if there are even or odd number of twists). See Clayton Paul's book on Introduction to EMI/EMC.
