Troubleshooting Passwords
Troubleshooting Passwords The following procedures may be used to troubleshoot password problems: • Performing Password Recovery with an Existing Administrator, page 1 • Performing Password Recovery with No Existing Administrator, page 1 • Performing Password Recovery for the Linux Grapevine User Account, page 2 Performing Password Recovery with an Existing Administrator To perform password recovery for a user (administrator, installer or observer) where there exists at least one controller administrator (ROLE_ADMIN) user account, take the following steps: 1 Contact the existing administrator to set up a temporary password for the user that requires password recovery. Note The administrator can set up a temporary password by deleting the user's account and then recreating it with the lost password. The user can then log back into the controller to regain access and change the password once again to whatever he or she desires. 2 The user then needs to log into the controller with the temporary password and change the password. Note Passwords are changed in the controller GUI using the Change Password window. For information about changing passwords, see Chapter 4, Managing Users and Roles in the Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller Enterprise Module Configuration Guide. Performing Password Recovery with No Existing Administrator The following procedure describes how to perform password recovery where there exists only one controller administrator (ROLE_ADMIN) user account and this account cannot be successfully logged into. Cisco Application Policy Infrastructure Controller Enterprise Module Troubleshooting Guide, Release 1.3.x 1 Troubleshooting Passwords Performing Password Recovery for the Linux Grapevine User Account Note We recommend that you create at least two administrator accounts for your deployment. -

Xen and the Linux Console Or: Why Xencons={Tty,Ttys,Xvc} Will Go Away
Xen and the linux console or: why xencons={tty,ttyS,xvc} will go away. by Gerd Hoffmann <[email protected]> So, what is the Linux console? Well, there isn't a simple answer to that question. Which is the reason for this paper in the first place. For most users it probably is the screen they are sitting in front of. Which is correct, but it also isn't the full story. Especially there are a bunch of CONFIG_*_CONSOLE kernel options referring to two different (but related) subsystems of the kernel. Introducing virtual terminals (CONFIG_VT) Well, every linux user knows them: Virtual terminals. Using Alt-Fx you can switch between different terminals. Each terminal has its own device, namely /dev/tty<nr>. Most Linux distributions have a getty ready for text login on /dev/tty{1-6} and the X-Server for the graphical login on /dev/tty7. /dev/tty0 is a special case: It referes to the terminal which is visible at the moment. The VT subsystem doesn't draw the characters itself though, it has hardware specific drivers for that. The most frequently used ones are: CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE VGA text console driver, this one will drive your VGA card if you boot the machine in VGA text mode. CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE Provides text screens on top of a graphical display. The graphical display in turn is driven by yet another driver. On x86 this very often is vesafb. Other platforms have generic drivers too. There are also a bunch of drivers for specific hardware, such as rivafb for nvidia cards. -

Enhancing Plug and Play Capabilities in Body Area Network Protocols
Enhancing Plug and Play Capabilities in Body Area Network Protocols A Major Qualifying Project Report: Submitted to the Faculty Of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By: ____________________________ Ryan Danas ____________________________ Douglas Lally ____________________________ Nathaniel Miller ____________________________ John Synnott Date: March 10, 2014 Approved: ____________________________ Prof. Krishna Kumar Venkatasubramanian, Advisor ____________________________ Prof. Craig A. Shue, Co-Advisor 1 Abstract This project aimed to create a plug-and-play protocol for Body Area Networks (BANs). This protocol enables communication between a diverse number of devices and a base station, regardless of equipment manufacturer. Previous BANs rely on either proprietary software, or protocols that are specialized to the physical device. This protocol takes a more universal approach, allowing any arbitrary device to participate in a BAN without introducing any significant overhead or running cost to the operation of that BAN. Unlike previous approaches, any existing motes and the base station will not have to be updated. Only new devices being added to the BAN will have to implement the protocol before connecting. Our protocol introduces overhead that reduced the performance and lifetime of the motes used in our BAN. 2 Table of Contents Contents Abstract ........................................................................................................................................................ -
Timing Comparison of the Real-Time Operating Systems for Small Microcontrollers
S S symmetry Article Timing Comparison of the Real-Time Operating Systems for Small Microcontrollers Ioan Ungurean 1,2 1 Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science; Stefan cel Mare University of Suceava, 720229 Suceava, Romania; [email protected] 2 MANSiD Integrated Center, Stefan cel Mare University, 720229 Suceava, Romania Received: 9 March 2020; Accepted: 1 April 2020; Published: 8 April 2020 Abstract: In automatic systems used in the control and monitoring of industrial processes, fieldbuses with specific real-time requirements are used. Often, the sensors are connected to these fieldbuses through embedded systems, which also have real-time features specific to the industrial environment in which it operates. The embedded operating systems are very important in the design and development of embedded systems. A distinct class of these operating systems is real-time operating systems (RTOSs) that can be used to develop embedded systems, which have hard and/or soft real-time requirements on small microcontrollers (MCUs). RTOSs offer the basic support for developing embedded systems with applicability in a wide range of fields such as data acquisition, internet of things, data compression, pattern recognition, diversity, similarity, symmetry, and so on. The RTOSs provide basic services for multitasking applications with deterministic behavior on MCUs. The services provided by the RTOSs are task management and inter-task synchronization and communication. The selection of the RTOS is very important in the development of the embedded system with real-time requirements and it must be based on the latency in the handling of the critical operations triggered by internal or external events, predictability/determinism in the execution of the RTOS primitives, license costs, and memory footprint. -
