Re: [AFMUG] The weirdest coincidence

2022-02-28 Thread dmmoffett
Not with a redirect…..that’s why I don’t do it anymore.

There’s a method to proxy HTTPS traffic, and I’d have to assume that Mediacom 
thing you’re referring to is using a proxy to work that magic.  Proxies are not 
a thing I’ve really messed with so I’m not terribly clear on how they do it 
with HTTPS, but apparently they can.  Maybe it only works with domain validated 
certificates?

On that note, is there any way to get cusomers to see a redirect on https 
without the security page? I assume no, since it would defeat the security 
principle purpose.

 

Mediacom has the ability to inject a banner at the top of the page to deliver a 
message if youre nearing your usage. I assume they can put whatever message 
they want.

Re: [AFMUG] The weirdest coincidence

We set up a special van 404 for this.

Customers get assigned to this vlan for any reason that necessitates action
before being turned back on.

At the headend there is a tik set up on this vlan which gives a splash page
asking them to call the office.It also gives them an option to pay
their bill through the (whitelisted) billing portal.

This is why there needs to be segregation between APs and SMs in 
cnMaestro for permissions.

I just had five different PMP450 AP’s go down at the same time at five 
different towers.  In all cases the switch reports link, but I get zero

I'd also not turn customers off by disabling ethernet ports.  This is a
small example but a bigger one still would be when the customer starts
changing cables because their internet doesn't work.  Having a redirect
page (SSL errors be damned) is way better.

Re: [AFMUG] The weirdest coincidence

2022-02-23 Thread dmmoffett
I absolutely understand being busy and having multiple windows open and the 
dangers that can occur if you mix up which window is for which task.  Anybody 
can have an issue in those conditions with any kind of hardware.

 

The fact this person did it 6 times in quick succession means someone gave them 
access they shouldn’t have to devices they didn’t understand.   And yeah 6 
total.  There were 5 when I first wrote the bewildered email about it.  That 
does make me consider which person might deserve the proposed the knee breaking 
accident. 

 

Two were the 450i which have the very convenient recovery mode feature.  Three 
of the others we got back by getting in through the wireless side with an SM.   
The last was a 3.5ghz 450 (not 450i).  So no recovery mode, and you know since 
the AP can’t talk to the SAS no SM could be authorized and an SM without a SAS 
grant doesn’t bridge traffic.  That one was a tower climb with a default 
plug…….no other choice.  I don’t know what individual did it, but I hope they 
are mercilessly heckled by their coworkers.  And I do appreciate the mafioso 
knee breaking jokes, but I don’t actually wish them any injury.

That brings up big questions of why the noob thought they'd have permission
to do that, and why someone gave them a password with AP control access.

I just had five different PMP450 AP’s go
  down at the same time at five different towers.  In all cases
  the switch reports link, but I get zero Rx traffic.  Power
  cycle doesn’t bring any of them back up.  
 
WTF just happened?  Some kind of bug?

I just had five different PMP450 AP's go down at the same time at five
different towers.  In all cases the switch reports link, but I get zero Rx
traffic.  Power cycle doesn't bring any of them back up.  

 

WTF just happened?  Some kind of bug?
