Re: Same MAC address in 2 different VLANs

2013-07-25 Thread Olivier Nicole
 I think you maybe ok. Ive just looked at my esx config and the esx
 management interfaces use their own generated macs, not the physical
 interfaces ones. All the vms obviously use generated macs as well.

 However I only looked over it at a superficial level.

 Have you considered using a tap or spare phyical interface on your flex box
 and not linking it to the network?

Thank you, that was a brilliant idea: Flex only needs that one
interface, with the specific MAC, exists on the host, it does not
specifically try to use that interface for managing licenses, so a tap
hanging to nowhere is the solution.

Best regards,

Olivier

 Hello,

 Could any one comment about the use of the same MAC address in 2
 separate VLANs?

 All my machines are connected to 2 VLANs (one public and one private)
 with no routing in between the VLANs.

 I used to run a FLEX license manager to a physical machine. When I
 virtualized that service, I had to use the MAC address of that physical
 machine for the virtual machine (FLEX is linked to the MAc address and I
 coul dnot issue new license as licensed the pproduct is not supported
 anymore). The virtual NIC that has the old MAC address is connected to
 the public VLAN.

 Now I want to reuse the physical machine as a VMware server. Dell nor
 VMware offer a solution to change the MAC address (like
 ifconfig em0 link xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx would do). So I plan to connect the
 NIC with the incriminated MAC to the private VLAN.

 Most (if not all) my servers are FreeBSD. Most will access the virtual
 machine running FLEX and may access the VMware server also. The servers
 are not VLAN aware.

 Will this be an issue?

 Best regars,

 Olivier

Mark Felder articulated:


Can your machine email the PDF? That's how I'd solve it... have it
send to a mailbox on your local machine and have a script that grabs
the attachment and puts it in a directory shared on the network.

That is a novel idea and yes it does have the ability to send a scanned
document via email; however, I think that is way more trouble than it
is worth. I have the problem solved by sharing the directories on the
MS machines. It isn't perfect, but it does work. Porting the Brother
scanner software to FreeBSD would probably be ideal, but I have neither
the time, a spare machine nor probably the skill to do it.


Jerry,
Have you thought about using FTP?
First googled spec on brother-usa.com shows that it supports Scan To: 
E-mail, Image, OCR, File, FTP, USB, Network

And in Supported protocols they mention: FTP Client and Server

The .iso file is designed to be used for optical media (CD
and DVD). For USB sticks, use the .img (memstick) file from
the download section.

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/9.1/

FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img will be the correct
file which you can easily dd onto the USB stick.



But maybe this will help you will the file you already have:

Do you want to install onto USB, or do you want to install from USB?

If you want to install from USB, you could download the memstick image and 
write to USB stick (raw device) with dd.

Directory
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/9.2/

includes a memstick image,

FreeBSD-9.2-BETA1-amd64-memstick.img

or you can stay with 9.1_RELEASE if you prefer, but get the memstick.img 
instead of disc1.iso .

I have never used Ubuntu, but dd should be a standard part of most any Linux 
distro.

How to create vlan (four NIC into one) using lagg

2013-07-25 Thread Xu Zhe
Hi, all,

I am trying to use lagg to bind four 1Gb NIC into 4Gb one. I was testing
this using two machines running FreeBSD 8.2, each of the machine has
four 1Gb ethernet card, and connected correspondingly, means:

MACHINE1 MACHINE2
em0 -em0
em1 -em1
em2 -em2
em3 -em3

Then I created vlan called 'lagg0' on each machine using:

ifconfig lagg0 create
ifconfig lagg0 laggproto lacp laggport em0 laggport em1 laggport em2
laggport em3
ifconfig lagg0 1.1.1.1/24
ifconfig lagg0 up

And do this on MACH2 too, only change IP from 1.1.1.1 to 1.1.1.2.

But I cannot ping each other, since none of the link is both active:

MACHINE1
# ifconfig lagg0
lagg0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 1500
options=219bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,WOL_MAGIC
ether 00:08:9b:d4:91:64
inet 1.1.1.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 1.1.1.255
media: Ethernet autoselect
status: active
laggproto lacp
laggport: em3 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING
laggport: em2 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING
laggport: em1 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING
laggport: em0 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING

MACHINE2
# ifconfig lagg0
lagg0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 1500
options=219bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,VLAN_HWCSUM,TSO4,WOL_MAGIC
ether 00:08:9b:d3:72:60
inet 1.1.1.2 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 1.1.1.255
media: Ethernet autoselect
status: active
laggproto lacp
laggport: em3 flags=18COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING
laggport: em2 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING
laggport: em1 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING
laggport: em0 flags=1cACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING

So, em3 is active on MACHINE1 but not active on MACH2, while em0-em2 are
active on MACH2 but not on MACHI1.

What might be the problem?

Thanks!
Peter

This is a CD-ROM image.  Please try again using the 'memstick' image
instead, whicih should be available in the same place you for the ISO
image for the CD-based installation and have a name like this:

FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img

This should be bootable if you copy it directly to a USB stick with at
least 733 MB of disk space.  You can use plain dd(1) from your Ubuntu
installation to do that:

sudo dd if=FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/sdc

Just replace /dev/sdc with the name of your USB stick's device.

 Hi,
 Why you do not track 9/Stable or wait 9.2-Release?
 We are at the first Beta stage of 9.2. (9.2-Beta 1). You cannot use 
 freebsd-update to upgrade your 9.1-Release to 9.2-Beta 1 because there was 
 a problem, but this will be resolved for 9.2-Beta 2 in the next days or weeks.
 Just my .2 cents

 Alexandre

Hi,

Whats the best list to submit oddities regarding freeBSD 9.2 Beta 1?

Specifically, this line in 9.1 creates and mounts the fs under /mnt;

zpool create -o altroot=/mnt -o cachefile=/var/tmp/zpool.cache zroot mirror 
/dev/gpt/disk0 /dev/gpt/disk1

But in 9.2 beta 1, its under /mnt/zroot.

Just seems a bit odd is all.
