Difference between "Home network" and "Business Network" WITHOUT a domain name in Windows 7?

I'm paranoid and always try to choose security options more high.  In preparation for the implementation of a small Windows 7 network behind a NAT router wireless and wired, I'm working through "Microsoft Windows 7 in depth" by Cowart and Knittel (what, rights of copyright 2010).  I fell right on the following steps (mentioned verbatim in p. 446-447), that I don't understand.  (The steps are clear enough but the real difference between the first two choices is not.) :

«.. . Click on change settings, click Network ID...  You are prompted to select the option that best describes your computer:

  • This computer belongs to a network of business; I use it to connect to other computers at work.
  • This computer is a computer at home; It is not part of a corporate network.

«That one you choose made a significant difference...»  If you choose the option "Business Network", Windows configures your computer for a better level of security it will be for domestic use [my underlining].  The wizard then asks you choose one of the following responses:

  • My company uses a network with a domain name
  • My company uses a network without a domain name

«.. . If you build your own network as described in this chapter, select a field, then click Next.  The last question asks a name for the network working group.  Leaving the WORKING group by default in place".

It seems that you can set up a "Business Network" 'without a domain' that outward behaves as a similar "home network".  If Yes, what is this 'higher standard of security' that will result? -JCW2

There is only one difference between home network and profiles work that appears when you sign in for the 1st time.

A profile of home network allows to create or join a homegroup, on a job profile that you can not. So what it means actually using the term "business" is false and the differences in security are limited.

One of the limitations of a workgroup can access one action requires the credentials of all users to set up on the host pc, setting up a homegroup automatically creates a common user between computers that could be considered a low security setting...

  • Is it posible to allow access between the host and virtal machine without wired network?

    I want to use my laptop to show him that I did in the virtual work to other people at my home.

    However, the laptop is ofen not allowed access to the network in their office.

    Is it posible to allow access between the host and virtal machine without wired network?

    VMware player

    My virtual machine is filled to the physical network adapter and use the static IP address.

    Brad

    Setting of the virtual machine: filled

    Change that to each host only (what Continuum called VMnet1) or NAT (VMnet8).  Both use a separate virtual NETWORK card to connect the physical computer virtual host, independent of any NETWORK adapter on the host.

    ... Since the machine host (win7) could not get IP, ping fail to VM (192.168.1.5)...

    Because the connection between the guest and the host is through a separate NETWORK card, you must use the 'other' IP address.  Access a prompt on the host computer and type IPCONFIG to view the IP address of VMnet1 and VMnet8 NIC.  Then use this IP address instead of 192.168.1.5.

    And when you have changed the network management modes (i.e. of bridged to host-only), Windows does not automatically renew its IP address.  The virtual NETWORK card uses a different subnet if you need to renew your DHCP lease or change your static IP address to work with the new subnet.

  • What is the difference between Unicast RPF and Reverse Path Forwarding?

    I am confused between Unicast RPF and Reverse Path Forwarding function.

    What is the difference between Unicast RPF and Reverse Path Forwarding?

    Because they have all two please check the address of the source of each package before sending it to the destination too?

    Reverse Path Forwarding is used only when the network want to build a tree shared multicast communication and then we must use Unicast RPF after creation of the shared tree?

    The mechanism of the RPF is mainly used to ensure no loop of routing traffic.

    As you probably already read, it does by ensuring that his route to the source address of a packet received is accessible via the same interface that the packet is entered in the. Think of the notion of "root port" in STP. all root ports are similar to the root, sunflower follow the Sun. Therefore, it is naturally a loop prevention mechanism.

    With multicast traffic, it is quite likely to create multiple loops of routing the nature of 'destination' traffic. For this reason, using a mechanism as the RPF to ensure you are on the "road to the root" (to say) to the source originating multicast traffic. Otherwise if you're not then you either receive this traffic route in a loop, or a suboptimal path.

    uRPF works essentially the same way, except that it is done for unicast traffic instead. Now with unicast traffic your flow is from a source and directs to a single destination. Given that, as the fact that you are using a dynamic routing algorithm (which allows to select the path to a destination), you can have loops of your network for unicast traffic flow routing; of course there may be exceptions to pitfalls of configuration route redistribution.

    However RPF when it is applied to traffic unicast can add another advantage, and it's verification IP source. That's why we can use it as a security mechanism to ensure that data are from where it is supposed to come.

    On the limit of the L2, you then have mechanisms such as guard source IP to ensure that the correct host is not usurpation of their IP address.

    By analogy RPF can be used for checking at source for multicast traffic, and it is intrinsically that however, the most important role is so that it can be used to guarantee without loop routing of multicast traffic.

    I hope that helped clear things upwards and not confused you any more with all this.

  • The difference between the ADR and ADF

    People,

    Hello.   I have implemented PeopleSoft Campus Solution 9.0 revision 5 for a University. I develop the application for Admission online for future student to apply for admission.

    I need to install Oracle ADF (Application Development Framework) or ADR (execution of Application Development) to run my application for Admission online web page for PeopleSoft Campus Solution 9.0, but I do not know the difference between the ADF and the ADR.

    My installations are below:

    Server machine: Oracle Linux 5.10 (64-bit)

    Client computer: Windows XP Professional (64 edition) with the Internet Explorer browser

    Architecture Internet Oracle Linux 5.10 Server:

    (1) database server: Oracle Database 11 g

    (2) the server application: Tuxedo 11 g

    (3) web Server: Web 11 g logic

    (4) browser: Firefox Mozila

    5) 8.53 PeopleTools and PeopleSoft Campus Solution 9.0 R5

    On the download page http://www.Oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/ADF/downloads/index.html , there are 2 packages to download:

    (1) execution of the 12.1.3.0 application development

    (2) oracle ADF essential 12.1.3.0

    My Architecture Internet of PeopleSoft as shown above has been working properly for a long time. Logical Web 11g works correctly. It seems that the first 'Application development performance' package also install logical Web server which is not necessary in my machine. In addition, ADR is not free, and we may need to purchase the license.

    Essential because ADF is free and without license fees, I chose Oracle ADF essential 12.1.3.0.0 to develop the application for admission online. I read his paper on http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/jdev/documentation/121300-cert-2164864.html

    9.0 Solution Campus system will be run by a University to do business formally.

    My questions are:

    First of all, what package is right for my application for Admission online Campus Solution 9.0? ADR or essential ADF?

    Second, if choose essential ADF, I have a few questions about the 12.1.3.0.0 ADF to match my installations as below:

    (1) as indicated in the document, ADF 12.1.3.0.0 can work with Oracle Linux 5 & 6 (64-bit) and other operating systems. ADF can also work with Windows XP? Can I install ADF with my Oracle Linux 5 server machine?

    (2) as indicated in the document, ADF 12.1.3.0.0 can work with Websphere Server Application. ADF can work with Tuxedo 11 g?

    (3) as indicated in the document, ADF 12.1.3.0.0 can work with the Firefox browser. ADF can work with Internet Explorer in Windows XP?

    Thanks in advance.

    If you want to use essentials, you must download the package from the essential. ADR is the complete stack where you must purchase a license.

  • Difference between the offline and canceled State

    Hi community

    Can someone explain to me precisely the difference between the offline and not deployed State. As much as I understand in both cases memory will be released, correct?

    Kind regards

    Michael

    Hi Michael,

    If a virtual machine is off (off line), this means that the guest operating system VM was extinguished (free or here), but the virtual machine remains in stock in vCenter and all the network configuration of vSphere intact remains, such as external IP addresses for fenced configurations.

    Cancel the deployment of turn off the virtual machine (saving the State or not), delete the virtual machine inventory, delete records in vCenter VMs and view models.  If the an all fenced config is cancelled, the virtual router as well as the resulting vSwitch will be removed in vSphere.

  • Difference between external tables and sql * loader

    Hello

    Could you please tell me the difference between
    tables external and sql * loader

    I have serached on the net but did ' get correct idea

    Please help me

    1 SQL LOADER can be run on the network (from any client computer), external tables can't

    2. return to the Oracle 9, external Tables could not load CLOB/BLOB (Oracle10 changed it)

    3 oracle 11 external tables have preprocessor, which is pretty dam characteristic cool - running essentially any OS command e.g. decompress before external table run. What's even better is the fact that the result of the operating system command is the source of the outer table, which means that there are no required temporary file (unzip the tracks and the output is the source of the external table). There are several ways to great use this - look at my blog for samples rare http://jiri.wordpress.com/2010/01/19/no-more-unix-scripts-in-11-2/

    4. as long as the 009 stressed, filed external load anything, they show just. Think of it more as load on request - it's great if you have old files archived and one or two users what to see content once a while

    5. external tables require no user access to the operating system, it is oracle environment pure - this may seem minor but for me it's huge. The fact that the ETL needs no special unix, no control file command and uses the simple SQL and DDL is nice and important

    6. external tables can load more text files, Oracle export dump files can be loaded, perhaps in the future more formats will be supported (hopefully all right excel format?)

    now the same thing to kill the myth - the TWO are EXACTLY the same when it comes to speed, I would actually drive of the external tables before will be faster because sql loader is old technology oracle doesn't really develops more

  • Difference between "Auto off" and "Sleep" on LaserJet P1102W

    The user guide for the LaserJet P1102W indicates that the default Auto setting in the properties is 5 minutes.  "Automatic stop" drop-down list does not contain a setting of 5 minutes - rather it contains "never, 30 min and 1,2,4,8, & 24 hours."  However, the drop-down list 'Sleep' contain 5 min and other selections up to 1 hour.  What is the difference between auto-off"and"Sleep ".

    After the installation of this new printer, the default settings have been = 5 Minutes ' Sleep' and 'Auto off' = never

    I have several computers around the House than any print to the same printer.  I want to always available for printing without issue in the basement to activate it, but yet they want more economic mode.

    What is the difference between 'Sleep' and 'Auto off' and how should I put them in my terms of service desired?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I understand that you are looking for some explanations between the Sleep and automatic shutdown of the Laserjet P1102W printer. I would be happy to offer you answers!

    For your desired operating conditions, I think that you already put as you would like. Standby essentially puts the printer in a State of very low power consumption, but the printer can be awakened from this State by sending a print job (meaning you don't have to go to the printer to remove it from that State). The auto-off function off the printer completely after a period of time. The only way to take the printer out of State would be to go to the printer and press the power button.

    To have several computers connected to this one printer I would recommend leaving the auto-off Never and Eve to what you think is the best. As I said, the printer will wake up fashion 'sleep' and accomplish what you ask without physically going to the printer.

    Hope this helps, have a nice day!

  • Difference between an application and a Folio and what is not taken in charge

    Hello

    I'm about to dive into work on my first app in InDesign.

    I have two questions that are more specific, while I understand the difference.

    1. What is the difference between an App and a Folio?

    2. I also understand that native animations and synchronization options are NOT supported in a Folio for a DPS, the same system go for something later to be used as an application?

    Just try to understand and start on the right foot

    Thank you!

    Babs

    Imagine a folio as content kind of as a book has pages.

    The app has a folio.

    That said, you may not aware that only edition apps are no longer included in Creative cloud without a full account of DPS, you cannot create an app.

  • difference between sqlplus /nolog and sqlplus "/ as sysdba".

    HI ppl,

    Please help me with this... This is an emergency of lill

    On the oracle 10g platform, what is the difference between sqlplus /nolog and sqlplus "/ as sysdba".

    concerning

    Zombie says:
    Thnx for the people of responses,

    but not giving sqlplus/nolog... Disable writing to the Oder, the session is opened in mode nologing IE?

    concerning

    Laughing out loud

    Do not assume that everywhere where NOLOG is mentioned it means no. LOGGINg:-D. By sqlplus / nolog, you did nothing but had just the sql command prompt without really connecting as any user. You will still need to connect, by some users to start your work. This has NOTHING to do with do it again / cancel and anything else.

    The other command will actually to connect as user Sys with Sysdba role.

    That said, I STRONGLY suggest you to read this book for sure.
