Configure IP Unnumbered on Cisco

On the test I will configure IP Unnumbered on Cisco Catalyst 6509E with firmware 12.2(33)SXJ7, on other switches the setup is similar.
IP Unnumbered is useful, for example, when it is necessary to divide a large network into several VLANs and use the same IP addresses and also to issue white IPs in any VLAN using one gateway.

Connect to the terminal device through the console, telnet or SSH.

View and configure sharing of files and folders Windows from the command line

I will give an example of some commands for setting up sharing of resources.

View shared resources:

net share

Deleting a shared resource:

net share <sharename> /delete

Sharing a folder:

net share sharename=C:\dir

Example of disconnecting users from the share:

net session \\pc1 /delete

To close an open network file, use the command:

net file file_id /close

An example of granting user rights to a file (N – not set, W – write, C – change, F – full access):

cacls file.txt /G User:w

To cancel user access to a share:

cacls /R User

We allow up to 5 users to simultaneously connect to a shared resource:

net share sharename /users:5

Example of caching settings from a share (manual/BranchCache/documents/programs/none):

net share myshare /cache:manual

I want to note that when opening a share to a resource in the firewall, the following ports should be opened: TCP 139, TCP 445, UDP 137, UDP 138.

Hidden files and directories in Ubuntu

Method 1
Put a dot at the beginning of the file or directory name.

Method 2
Create a .hidden file, place in a directory in which you need to hide something and write in it a column of the names of files or folders that should be hidden. The case of letters has a meaning, that is, if the name of an element is from a capital letter, then write it in the .hidden file in the same way.

To see the hidden items through the Nautilus file manager, you must press the key combination Ctrl+H or in the “View” menu click “Show hidden files”.

D-Link DSR-150 router firmware upgrade

To flash the D-Link DSR-150 router, take the following necessary steps in steps:

1) Let’s look at the revision on the label under the router and download the new firmware from it from the official site http://www.dlink.ru/ru/products/9/1697_d.html

Firmware router not under the revision can lead to its failure.

2) Open the settings of the router by typing in the browser the address http://192.168.1.1 (maybe 192.168.0.1) and enter the standard login – admin, the password – admin.

3) In the opened interface at the top, open the “Tools” tab, on the left, select “Firmware“. On the page that opens, the current firmware version will be displayed, if it is older than the downloaded one, then click “Browse” and select the previously downloaded firmware file, then click “Upgrade” to start the process updates.

Wait until the update is complete, usually 2-5 minutes. At the end, the router will reboot.

Is done.

Installing UNMS (Ubiquiti Network Management System)

UNMS (Ubiquiti Network Management System) – EdgeMAX®, EdgeSwitch®, airMAX®, UFiber device management system, which includes software updates, configuration backup, real-time performance graphs, notifications, device location maps, etc.

For example, I will install UNMS on Ubuntu Server 18.04 64bit.

First, install the necessary components:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl sudo bash netcat

Download the installation script from the official site to the temporary directory:

curl -fsSL https://unms.com/install > /tmp/unms_inst.sh

Run the downloaded script:

sudo bash /tmp/unms_inst.sh

If it is necessary to change the web ports during the installation:

sudo bash /tmp/unms_inst.sh --http-port 8080 --https-port 8443

By default, UNMS uses Let’s Encrypt when creating SSL certificates for your domain and saves them in /home/unms/data/cert/live.
If you want to use your SSL certificates, then during installation, for example, we specify (UNMS should have read rights in ssl-cert-dir):

sudo bash /tmp/unms_inst.sh --http-port 8080 --https-port 8443 --ssl-cert-dir /etc/certificates --ssl-cert fullchain.pem --ssl-cert-key privkey.pem

How to hide the Jetpack menu for users

To hide the Jetpack menu for subscribers and regular users, it’s enough to add the following code to the active theme functions.php file:

function ap_remove_jetpack_page( ) {
if ( class_exists( 'Jetpack' ) && !current_user_can( 'manage_options' ) ) {
remove_menu_page( 'jetpack' );
}
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'ap_remove_jetpack_page', 999 );

Also for this there are several plugins, but those that came across to me are quite old.
