  • Software Product Description and Quickspecs
    VSI OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.4-2L2 Operating System DO-DVASPQ-01A Software Product Description and QuickSpecs PRODUCT NAME: VSI OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.4-2L2 DO-DVASPQ-01A This SPD and QuickSpecs describes the VSI OpenVMS Alpha Performance Release Operating System software, Version 8.4-2L2 (hereafter referred to as VSI OpenVMS Alpha V8.4-2L2). DESCRIPTION OpenVMS is a general purpose, multiuser operating system that runs in both production and development environments. VSI OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.4-2L2 is the latest release of the OpenVMS Alpha computing environment by VMS Software, Inc (VSI). VSI OpenVMS Alpha V8.4-2L2 is compiled to take advantage of architectural features such as byte and word memory reference instructions, and floating-point improvements, which are available only in HPE AlphaServer EV6 or later processors. This optimized release improves performance by taking advantage of faster hardware-based instructions that were previously emulated in software. NOTE: VSI OpenVMS Alpha V8.4-2L2 does not work on, and is not supported on, HPE AlphaServer pre-EV6 systems. OpenVMS Alpha supports HPE’s AlphaServer series computers. OpenVMS software supports industry standards, facilitating application portability and interoperability. OpenVMS provides symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) support for multiprocessing systems. The OpenVMS operating system can be tuned to perform well in a wide variety of environments. This includes combinations of compute-intensive, I/O-intensive, client/server, real-time, and other environments. Actual system performance depends on the type of computer, available physical memory, and the number and type of active disk and tape drives. The OpenVMS operating system has well-integrated networking, distributed computing, client/server, windowing, multi-processing, and authentication capabilities.

For the human brain, sequences like -> , <= or := are single logical tokens, even if they take two or three characters on the screen. Your eye spends a non-zero amount of energy to scan, parse and join multiple characters into a single logical one. Ideally, all programming languages should be designed with full-fledged Unicode symbols for operators, but that’s not the case yet. Solution Download v1.203 · How to install · News & updates Fira Code is an extension of the Fira Mono font containing a set of ligatures for common programming multi-character combinations.

  • Openbsd: Firewall Ridondanti Con CARP E Pfsync Chris Gamboni CISSP [email protected] Tilug.Ch, Bellinzona, 9 Aprile 2005 Cos'è Openbsd ?
    OpenBSD: Firewall ridondanti con CARP e pfsync Chris Gamboni CISSP [email protected] TiLug.ch, Bellinzona, 9 aprile 2005 Cos'è OpenBSD ? ● OpenBSD: – Nasce da un fork di netbsd nel 1995 – Secure by default (1 remote exploit in 8 anni) – Progetto basato in Canada, nessuna restrizione sull’esportazione di crittografia – Una release ogni 6 mesi (3.7 al 1.6.2005) – Si finanzia con la vendita di CD e di gadgets – Progetti collegati: OpenSSH, OpenNTPd, OpenBGPd, OpenOSPFd, etc… Alta disponibilità: CARP e pfsync ● Il firewall è un single point of failure – Quando il firewall è fermo nessuno accede ad internet, gli e-mail sono bloccati, ecc… – Non si può fermare il firewall per aggiornarlo ● OpenBSD, dalla versione 3.5, offre CARP e pfsync che permettono di avere firewalls in parallelo. Quando un firewall si ferma, il firewall di backup ne assume l’identità in modo trasparente. CARP (1) ● Common Address Redundancy Protocol: è il protocollo che si occupa di gestire il failover a livello 2 ed a livello 3. ● Ogni gruppo CARP possiede: – Un indirizzo MAC virtuale – Un indirizzo IP virtuale – Una password CARP (2) ● Ogni interfaccia CARP può avere 3 stati: MASTER, BACKUP e INIT (ifconfig) ● Il master manda messaggi Multicast (224.0.0.18) usando il protocollo IP 112 ● La frequenza di invio dei messaggi è configurabile (default = 1 sec) ● Chi invia messaggi più frequentemente diventa master CARP (3) ● CARP funziona sia con IPv4 sia con IPv6 ● CARP ha anche una funzione arp-balance che può servire per load-balancing, ma solo nella rete locale. ● CARP spedisce messaggi cifrati con SHA-1 HMAC ● CARP, a differenza di HSRP e VRRP, è esente da licenze e brevetti.

  • CLI Introduction
    2021/07/26 13:46 (UTC) 1/3 CLI Introduction Por traducir - Victor CLI Introduction A command line interface (CLI) is a way of interacting with an operating system or programs using text commands. As opposed to graphical user interfaces (GUI), CLI, due to its nature, is heavily keyboard oriented. Despite a steeper learning curve, this way of interaction has a wide range of benefits and is therefore preferred by many users. Since most Slackware configuration and administration is performed using the command line interface, it is highly recommended to understand and feel comfortable using them. An additional advantage is that 99% of the commands are universal for most Linux distributions. Things you learn here will most probably be applicable elsewhere. CLI is Good - Do Not Fear It The following are some of the advantages to using CLI: 1. CLI commands are more precise and powerful than GUI interaction. 2. GUI tools are often just frontends for command line tools. This brings another layer of complexity and is more difficult to troubleshoot. 3. Most commands are distro agnostic: they work on other Linux systems as well. 4. CLI commands are building blocks that can be glued together to create complex commands or custom scripts that are tailored to your needs. 5. CLI commands can be used to automate repetitive tasks 6. CLI commands do not change often. 7. Commands make a universal language that is easy to communicate and follow by other internet users. 8. CLI scripts can include comments that can act as notes and internal documentation explaining the functionality and simplifying future modifications.
