Should be easily do-able via tunneling. VPN on AC1 alone won't get your BS1 server a good route back to AS1. If it's a simple web service that doesn't require a lot of security, you could always give AS1 a real internet addressable address (from your ISP) and BS1 can access AS1 web service over the web. The thing about web services is that they typically aren't blocked by firewalls, but you still need to have an IP address facing the internet for AS1.

Hi Albert,
Thanks for the info.
Providing internet addressable address is good idea - I will check with the team about it 
Web service on AS1 does require authentication, but it must be Windows authentication of Network-A for that user!.
In case of any other possibility or possible blockades that we might face, do let me know

There is a good discussion on how to configure a reverse VPN tunnelling. Look like connecting back to the system is complicated issue. The essence of your problem is that even you can do the DNS registration (which makes eligible for the servers to find each other), the actual ip connection between your machines is further impossible.

It depends what you need or want from your server. And, btw, a third option "between" these two, is a Virtual Private Server (VPS) which, IMO, is as good a dedicated server (but much cheaper) unless your site is particularly large (or attracts lots of traffic) or resource heavy.
But the main advantage of a VPS or dedicated server is that you have full (virtual) control over the server, so can configure it as you want - obviously only an advantage if there is something particular you need to configure - and that you can also install and run your own programs (exe's) in the background to perform all sorts of related tasks.

I need to discover the IP address of a specific Ethernet switch on my LAN. What tool must I use for this?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
|
|
|
|

I first thought of SNMP, but that's obviously wrong (you need to know the tcp/ip address before you can query a device about its abilities) ... SNMP does have a discovery process, but Im not sure how it works
.. then I remembered that ICMP has/had a 'sub protocol' for router discovery .. and tippity tap, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1256[^]
not sure if either of those will serve as a starting point for you .....

Thank you. I looked at the page you link to, but it seems to be only for router discovery. I would like to discover a switch.
I did find a number of tools for network enumeration at Network Enumerators - securitywizardry.com[^], but I don't know what tool is good for what.
Are you able to recommend any of them?

I'd have a look at SolarWinds NPM Network Monitoring Software - Network Monitor | SolarWinds[^] - it has a discovery tool - but cheap it is not  I only know of them because I used to use KiwiSyslog a toolset they bought
(I used to have a discovery tool based on WNETEnum ... that fed the data to Visio to draw, but have log lost where I put it - it was a DDJ tool, and I cant recall if it did switches or just 'anything ip')
Check out SPLUNK while you're at it and see if it does discovery

Thank you Garth, I appreciate it.

I dont know if you found anything useful .. I found the original article I thought of (but it only does PC's, Printers etc) Visualizing Network Resources Using Visio | Dr Dobb's[^]
Im not sure what your motivation is Richard - if you were being paid, and had to write a tool (that was cheaper than SolarWinds for example), Im sure you could gather a list of all the tcp/ip addresses on your network, and then reduce/filter the list perhaps (eg remove PC's, printers ...) , leaving a list of addresses you could then issue SNMP calls against (for instance) ... thats what I would do

Depends on the switch.
Normally I would use a tool from the manufacturer.
Otherwise you would use a tool that implements LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) for low level switches, unless it's a Cisco, they have their own protocol (CDP).
If it's a high level switch SNMP should suffice.

a. I have a Sony Vaio Notebook with a nearly full 256GB SSD drive, 8GB Ram - its seems like its quick to overheat and shuts itself down frequently, especially if there's a lot of network traffic
b. I have a MacBook Pro, 15", 500GB SSD
c. I cant afford to purchase a new system (Windows or Mac) AND I'd like to migrate the 'content' off the Sony Vaio
My plan/thoughts goes something like this
- Upgrade the SSD in the Macbook Pro to 2TB
- Install Mac Parallels on the MacBook Pro
- Import the Sony Vaio as a VM onto the MacBook Pro (yeah, its going to be a mutha of a VM)
- If the 'Vaio VM' is usable, good, if not, continue
- Create a new Windows 7 VM on the MacBook under Parallels (maybe on an external drive), Install VS 2015 Onto it (the Sony Vaio only has VS2010 on it)
If I can get past step (3), my big worry is if Parallels can actually handle a VM that size
Any thoughts ? or do I download the 14 day trial of Parallels and 'jfgowi' (just freaken get on with it)

I don't have a Mac, but a quick Google shows a lot of results for using large VM images. Most VM software can support VMs of >= 1TB, so I don't think it will be a problem.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

cheers - Im on pain meds for a back issue at the moment, its affecting my google-fu

I hope you feel better soon! One of my friends has a Hyper-V VM with a 64 TB drive and it works fine (he is using a RAID system to store it). I don't know what he has on it, but I do know it is about half full.

I don't do Mac, but a previous coworker swore by Parallels. He had a Mac with Ubuntu and Windows VMs, that's how he did all his work.

lately since I did a code release for a Webforms project running on Server Core 2012 IIS, I've been getting a much larger number of these errors.
Most of them come from bots and crawlers, but a majority are coming from lets say Android phones from Sprint.
I did the machine key in the web config, really didn't make a difference.
The errors are on embedded scripts and images in a DLL. I can see now that there coming from encypted pages, SSL pages. Hmm?
I've been getting reports of users being kicked out when this error occurs on mobile phones.

The name of your SMTP server that will be used to send the mail

On New Database Mail Account screen, for Server Name specify your SMTP Server name like
Hotmail: SMTP server name: smtp.live.com, Port number: 587
Gmail : SMTP server name: smtp.gmail.com, Port number: 587
Yahoo : SMTP server name: smtp.mail.yahoo.com,Port number : 25
AOL : SMTP server name: smtp.aol.com, Port number : 587
The server requires a secure connection (SSL) - check this box
