SONET which osi layer?

Hello world

I'm learning just on sonet. What OSI sonet layer is mapped with?

Thank you and have a nice day

Hi Sarah,.

It uses the layer 1 or we can say physical layer

hope this will help.

Thank you

Need a written conditional script which involves layer styles and pixelation. Possible payment may be negotiated.

I am a freelance illustrator who uses extensively layer styles in my workflow. As the pixelation and the implementation of a new layer style is constant and ongoing, I would like a way to rationalize the actions of 3-4 that I use currently in a single conditional script. I am currently using CS6. Here's the description detailed of how I want the script to run:
(1) is the selected layer named "layer magic 1"? Otherwise, go to the #2 line. If Yes, go to the #8 line.
(2) is the selected layer named "magic layer 2? Otherwise, go to the #3 line. If Yes, go to the #8 line.
(3) is the selected layer named "layer Magic 3"? Otherwise, go to the #4 line. If Yes, go to the #8 line.
(4) is the selected layer named "layer Magic 4? Otherwise, go to line 5-7 bolt torque. If Yes, go to the #8 line.
(5) make the new layer.
(6) new name "Layer1" layer magic
(7) add the layer style (also nominated) "magical layer1. Script concludes.
(8) the layer is empty? If Yes, go to the #9 line. Otherwise, go to line 10-12 bolt torque.
(9) queue dialog box: "the end of magic layers? with the choice of the 'yes' or 'no '.
• If "Yes" is selected, the layer is removed. Script concludes.
• If "no" is selected, the layer is kept (no change). Script concludes.
(10) rasterize layer.
(11) rename the layer 'layer of paint '.
(12) merge the layer down. Go to the line of 5-7 bolt torque.
I would prefer if possible javascript, because I will need for the script between my Mac desktop and my Windows Tablet of the Cintiq based on the port. Any help would be greatly appreciated; It took me some time to try to learn the writing of scripts, but between labor day and the night in freelance, I managed only by creating extreme levels of frustration! Laughing out loud! PLEASE AND THANK YOU!

Good guys, has been able to play a bit with what I learned between both of you and others and come to this:

(1) function main() {}

2)

(3) var __indexOf = [] .indexOf | function (Item) {for (var i = 0, l = this.length; i)}< l;="" i++)="" {="" if="" (i="" in="" this="" &&="" this[i]="==" item)="" return="" i;="" }="" return="" -1;="">

4)

(5) var makeNewLayer = function() {}

(6) var newLayer = doc.artLayers.add ();

(7) newLayer.name = 'magic layer1.

(8) newLayer.applyStyle('magic layer1');

(9) doc.activeLayer = newLayer;

10)            }

11)

(12) var doc = app.activeDocument;

(13) lay = doc.activeLayer,

(14) names = ['magic layer1',

"(15) ' magical layer2.

(16) ' magical layer3.

["(17) ' magic layer4"];

18)

(19) if (__indexOf.call (name, lay.name)< 0="" )="">

(20) newLayer = doc.artLayers.add ();

(21) makeNewLayer();

(22) return;

23)            }

24)

(25) if (doc.activeLayer.kind == LayerKind.NORMAL & doc.activeLayer.bounds [2] == 0 & doc.activeLayer.bounds [3] == 0) {}

(26) var dialog = confirm (the ' magical sleep end? ");

(27) if (dialogue) {}

(28) app.activeDocument.activeLayer.remove ();

29)                }

(30) return;

31)            }

(32) var idrasterizeLayer = stringIDToTypeID ("rasterizeLayer");

(33) var desc5 = new ActionDescriptor();

(34) var idnull = charIDToTypeID ("null");

(35) ref4 var = new ActionReference();

(36) var idLyr = charIDToTypeID ("Lyr");

(37) var idOrdn = charIDToTypeID ('Ordn');

(38) var idTrgt = charIDToTypeID ("Trgt");

(39) ref4.putEnumerated (idLyr, idOrdn, idTrgt);

(40) desc5.putReference (idnull, ref4);

(41) var idWhat = charIDToTypeID ('what');

(42) var idrasterizeItem = stringIDToTypeID ("rasterizeItem");

(43) var idlayerStyle = stringIDToTypeID ("layerStyle");

(45) executeAction (idrasterizeLayer, desc5, DialogModes.NO);

46)

(47) doc.activeLayer.merge ();

(48) doc.activeLayer.name = 'base paint layer;

(49) makeNewLayer();

(50) return;

51)

52)        }

53)

(54) main();

I know it's a little ugly code lines 32-45, but (through other channels, thank you JJMack & c.pfaffenbichler!), I realized that there is no way to script, the rasterization of a "layer Style" others that using ScriptingListener.plugin. DBarranca Yes... I realized a little I "screwed the dog" on the diaper change after that I played with him for a while. Also a little, visited account that the "new layer" you were a little enough to add was not going to solve my problem. ended up having to add a "new layer" on line 20. Everything seems to work exactly as I intended at the moment. I DO, however, like the idea of having an error message "cannot find the magic layer1 Style". How would I want to add that in?

Thanks again,

The TCP 1 layer and Layer 2 Communication

Hello

I'm looking for possible ways to communicate on the layer 2 and layer OSI 1 (physical layer and layer of data binding).

I have a this equipment with host interface is ethernet, this device works on OSI layer 1 or Layer 2 or we can say that working on the MAC layer communication device.

Basically I want to exchage frames between the device and the host PC. If anyone has knowledge on this part please with me.

The wincap dll using we can communicate on layer 1 and Layer 2

CC of PhotoShop will not play layer adjustment Actions properly

My computer has CC PhotoShop installed on a Dell Windows 7 computer brand new. Previously, I used CS4 and it was working fine, but now I have problems with CC reading of any Action which a layer reported. I'm going to record an action consisting of edited such as curves, levels, brightness adjustment of the layer / who, etc., and then when I play back the adjustment of the applied layer is by default 0. For example, here I clicked on "Create new Action" and labeled "curves layer TEST":
Add a new curves adjustment layer and the label "light":
Then I add a few points of the curve (too thin to illustrate my question):
Then, I hit the button to stop recording. But when I look at the values of the curve in the Actions area of the curve very layer I just recorded, it indicates the type of preset is default. Why didn't he tell Custom? The properties box read "Custom" I just change the curve!
Anyway, I open my picture to juxtapose and play action liven up that I just created...
and nothing happens to the image. Oh, he now has a curves on the top layer, but it is a straight line by default. What has become of the curve, I have edited and saved! ??
What is the problem? This is the same process that I used in CS4, CS2 and every other incarnation of PhotoShop and it worked fine, until the CC. Is this a bug? Or is there a new process in the creation of adjustment layer?

See if the libraries closing Panel, then by restarting photoshop makes a difference.

Adjustment layer does not change recorded in action

Photoshop CC: Apply a preset to a layer of setting using Actions does not work. (Mac)

Dealing with DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE BSOD

After playing with some new display monitors, everything has been fine up until a few weeks ago, when I noticed that whenever I want to restart my computer, it would display the restart of the screen for about 10 minutes, then it would display a BSOD with the error being 'DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE.

Fortunately, after it seems, the system will re-start very well on its own.

We have a list of the IORP and a bit of a more informative text in the stack. We can see some NDIS calls, so this may indicate that we are dealing with something of associated network. The driver Interface specification NDIS (Network) is an application programming interface (API) for network (NIC) interface cards. The NDIS form the logical link control sublayer (LLC), which is the top layer of the OSI (Layer 2) data link layer. Therefore, the NDIS acting as interface between the sublayer Media Access Control (MAC), which is the bottom layer of the data link layer, and the network layer (Layer 3).

The NDIS is a library of functions often referred to as a "wrapper" that hides the underlying complexity of the NIC hardware and serves as a standard interface for pilots of level 3 network protocol and at the hardware level MAC drivers. Another common LLC is the Data-Link Interface ODI (Open).

error in NDIS.sys

Hello

I have a problem that I get "BSOD_system_service_exception (ndis.sys)" for about a month. I also learned to know that when I use internet, this problem occurred which means that it is network related issue. Please help me solve this problem. I really want to get rid of this

Thank you

Connect the 2 locations using RV016 router to fill 2 different networks.

I have a RV016 connected to a comcast cable modem to slot 1 with IP 192.168.6.1

I have a RV016 connected to a comcast cable modem at the 2 with 192.168.10.1 IP location

I installed a VPN tunnel from gateway to gateway between 2 routers RV016.

I have a LAN in slot 1 with the IP 192.168.1.1, which connects to the internet through an Adtran router with 4 lines of T1 servile.

I have a LAN with IP 192.168.5.1 2 location that connects to the internet through an Adtran router with 3 T1 lines servile.

I like a computer to location 2 to connect to the RV016 in the local Comcast modem to the Comcast modem at location 1 in the RV016 to slot 1 then go out to the local network at location 1 and communicate with an application server on LAN 1.

Help, please.

You can't do that with a RV016. The RV016 only supports layer 3 tunnel. This means that the two ends are different networks with different subnets. The traffic between them is not filled.

If you want to really two bridged networks, i.e. join in a single LAN with a single IP subnet and a single broadcast domain you need a layer 2 tunnel, for example a tunnel L2TPv3. That works on layer 2, which is on the MAC addresses inside your networks. In this way, you can use the same IP subnet at both ends and on each side, it seems that the other side is connected to the same ethernet network.

The RV016 does not support the tunneling of layer 2. You can create an IPSec tunnel, which is layer 3. If there is really a need for a tunnel layer 2, you get different devices. I recommend that you evaluate if a layer 2 connection is really necessary or not.

Impossible to transform object MASK

I am trying to change my image, which is currently the mask, and instead of turning an entire image. Is to transform the background. How to do this?

You capture shows your content of layer and the layer mask are linked. They should transform set. However, the layer mask is a little weird. He reveals the area of the layer that has no content, so the blue sky at the bottom of the poster. The mask is also hide a lot of content which the layer is the blue sky at the bottom of the poster and the content of the layers does not work.

What you should see when you change the bounding box of transformation shown is layer parts that show should change the size or move it by moving the box. If you remove the link to the content of the layer mask. You can size and move the layer mask and the content of the layer independently.

I think you're confusing what you see because of the strange layer mask. Your layer mask is not like as is approval of the contents of the layer. The layer mask is not like its content of lower layers.

I have a problem similar to that in post claytor1999 Minesweeper point on body / hand puppet together to deal a simple skin?, when you drag a body hand moves with him. I tried to remove layers, the order of the different layers, etc. Could someone take a look at the Illustrator file: Adobe Creative Cloud and the character animation project folder: Adobe Creative Cloud? Appreciate it.

Nice character!

A few tips:

(1) updated for Preview 3 (which looks like to you use Preview 2), and then create a new project and reimport the file I - This avoids having the 'old' version of behaviours of the previous version (that are good to keep things looking the same, but in your case it did not work in any case, better to get the new behaviors)

(2) because the key in his right hand is very close to his body, the mesh closes upward - you can see this by checking the option Show Mesh at the bottom of the Panel of puppets and by selecting the layer "body" (or any which another layer on the same mesh). You can fix a few different ways:
- (A) move the key to be a little further away from the leg (and same for the Toolbox on the other side: that it overlaps do not body)
- (B) change the lattice extension in the properties of 3-to-1 Panel. This solves the problem with the key, but not the box tool
- (C) change the images box & key to tools to make their own net. For a subpuppet (i.e. the layer group) you can just check the Warp option independently in the properties panel. But 'skins' (i.e. non-groupes) do not have this option. If you add a '+' in front of the name in artificial intelligence, Ch will automatically define Warp Indpendently for you (and for skin, automatically create a surrounding the group to enable it to happen). Thus, rename 'tools' to '+ tools' artificial intelligence. You'll probably also want to divide one for the left hand and the other for right hand tools as they move independently.
(3) you probably want to add some fixed handles to prevent the body from flopping autour when your head moves. Do it with the Pin tool in the control panel of the puppet, with the selected organization. And then to add keyboard triggers for change of hands, etc.

Related: How show different layers of a file linked .psb

Hi all
Lets say I have a multilayer psd file, each layer describes a scene of a mobile application, stacked one on the other. Can I use "place bound" to integrate the mobile file in the presentation. and of course, it shows which displayed layer when you saved the .psd file. Now, I want to fix several instances of this .psb file, each indicating a different layer (form app). For example if the .psb file has 4 layers, I want to drop 4 copies of each showing one of the layers in the original file. Any solution? I won't save as many times and original layers remain stacked one on the other.
Thank you

Without fully understanding what you are wanting to do, I think that layers can be an avenue in which you could look at. You can save the presentation different comps in your dynamic object and access it via the properties panel in your main document.

Question of VLAN to control package mgt Nexus 1000v

In the documentation of 1000v of last year he suggested that package VSM and control data use different VLAN. However, in the last 2010 document Cisco now has:
«Cisco recommends to use the same VLAN for control, package and management, but you don't place data traffic on this VLAN.» Flexibility, you can configure separate VLANs. »
Cisco also provides "Although the management interface is not used to Exchange data between the MSM and VEM, it is used to establish and maintain the connection between the MSM and VMware VirtualCenter Server".
In a 'high security' deployment of the 1000v, I'm not quite clear what would look like architecture. VCenter clearly needs to connect to the management interface. Control/data packets can stay on a layer 2 VLAN and not be routable to other networks. I'm not a networking guy, but have need to interface with our network team help design, deploy our 1000v. Would put us the control/package/mgt all on a VIRTUAL LAN, then use the ACL to restrict the traffic of just vCenter and other stations approved management work?
It seems to me the best solution would be a local network VIRTUAL package control information which is the layer 2 only and therefore no gateway or routing. Then place the management interface VLAN another which have Layer 3 connectivity and set the ACLs on the routing to limit what devices can talk to the management interface.
Thoughts?

We changed practices version 1.1 to 1.2 with respect to VLANs. There was a lot of pushing all VLANs was exaggerated and confusing to Setup. In a 'high security' configuration, I agree with your last paragraph. I put on a management VLAN is routable and stick control and packages on a non-routable network of L2.

It's a perfectly acceptable Setup.

If you go to ACL do not forget the VSM needed connections the following. You need access to vCenter, ssh/telnet access, monitoring of the access, and we use the network interface of pulsation of backup for VSM HA. The heart beat is pure L2 between two VSMs so keep that in mind.

Possibility to save script palette menus and load curves?

Is it possible to Photoshop CS4 script palette menus? Specifically, the "save curves preset...". ' and 'load curves Preset"... the range of settings.

I have 600 photos, some of which have layer > new adjustment layer > curves applied.

I want to save the curves using the name of the image. Later, I want to be able to load the appropriate curve.

For example, for image001.tif, the curve would be image001.acv

(I already have a loop set up to browse files and get the file names.)

I can't help with Applescript (or even know if it is possible to do it with only Applescript). And to my knowledge you can't have things script in dialog boxes like load or save the curve directly. But here's the javascript code which will load and save settings.

First of all the easy part, defining an adjustment of the layer of a file.

function loadCurves( file ) {
    var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
        var ref = new ActionReference();
        ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID( "AdjL" ), charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" ), charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" ) );
    desc.putReference( charIDToTypeID( "null" ), ref );
        var desc1 = new ActionDescriptor();
        desc1.putPath( charIDToTypeID( "Usng" ), new File( file ) );
    desc.putObject( charIDToTypeID( "T   " ), charIDToTypeID( "Crvs" ), desc1 );
    executeAction( charIDToTypeID( "setd" ), desc, DialogModes.NO );
};

The code to write that file .acv an adjustment layer is a bit more involved and does not work with all color modes

// Works with RGB or CMYK images.
// Does not work at all with greyscale, or indexColor
// Does not work correctly with Lab
File.prototype.writeByte = function(b) {
  this.write(String.fromCharCode(b));
};
File.prototype.writeShort = function(ET,s) {
  var self = this;
if(ET == "BE"){
  self.writeByte(s & 0xFF);
  self.writeByte((s >> 8) & 0xFF);
}else{
  self.writeByte((s >> 8) & 0xFF);
  self.writeByte(s & 0xFF);
}
  return self;
};

}
var myACV = new File('~/desktop/myCurve.acv');
myACV.open('w');
myACV.writeShort( 'LE','4' );// acv header
myACV.writeShort( 'LE','5' );// acv header
for( var i = 0; i< 5; i++ ) {
    var numberOfPoints = acvArray[i].length;
    myACV.writeShort( 'LE', numberOfPoints.toString() );
    for( var p = 0; p < numberOfPoints; p++ ){
        myACV.writeShort( 'LE', acvArray[i][p][0].toString() );
        myACV.writeShort( 'LE', acvArray[i][p][1].toString() );
    }
}
myACV.close();

I wrote this earlier. It may be possible to simply write the header of acv, then add the raw data from the descriptor to work with other modes of.

Also, neither verifies that the selected layer is a curves adjustment layer and will fail if it is not.

Cannot save layers moved into PSE10

NB: I use the word 'Register' in the sense of the printer, that is to say "well aligned".
I frequently edit multilayer maps, in which each layer must be recorded accurately (to the exact pixel) with canvas. In older versions of PES, when I tried to import layers from another file, I disable mode "maximizes" in the menu window and drag the imported layers to one image on the other. By pressing the SHIFT key at the same time, new layers would be recorded accurately on the new canvas in the same relative position they were on the old canvas (if the images are of different sizes, the old canvas would focus on the new).
In PSE10 there is no 'Maximize' mode, so I use the 2 - up option in the menu layout. However, pressing the SHIFT key doesn't seem to work more, and new layers come in their original positions. Apart from manually you align layers, I don't find a way to save them. 'Align' options are not useful to do this, that they re - calculate the center of the layer, based on its content. I need the layer must be harmonized as it was on the old canvas, regardless of the contents of the layer.
I'm sure that I'm very stupid, and there is a perfectly simple way to do it - I can't find it!

To activate the window > images > float images. Go in Edition > Preferences and select 'allow floating documents' option.

It will allow you to make the floating documents which is not sticky to the application.

(not sure if this is the same as the old unMaximized option).

Paste a shape as a mask when there are several layers?

I have a couple of layers that I applied the auto vector command in order to hide. I want to now draw a rectangle rounded on part of my canvas, cut this rectangle with corners rounded and right-click on the drawing area and choose Edition > paste as mask, so the picture will be revealed due to the rounded rectangle shape. It works with a single layer, but now that I have several layers and masks vector auto I don't know which image/layer for click straight on and do with?
Thanks for any help.

Instead of cutting the rounded rectangle, leave it at the top of the stack of items, select all three objects, then select Modify > mask > Group as mask (or you can right click to select the group in the mask). This command will apply the object higher in the selection as a mask for the items below.

"Change layers in ACR" might be executed or by script?

I am trying to integrate the Dr. Brown: Script CS5: change the layers in ACR (http://www.russellbrown.com/scripts.html)

in an existing workflow, not my choice.

Here is my delemna. I'm provided CMYK PSD files, and my final backup files must be CMYK PSD.

ACR via Bridge wants TIFFs, script Dr. Brown wants RGB. I know that I can batch convert TIFF or RGB, if necessary, but I think a action/script running in each open file could be simpler and less subject to error or oversight, as each image will be individually opened and edited in any case.

The way I am treated this manually is as follows:

Open PSD CMYK.

Duplicate the Image

Convert the Dupe in RGB

Run the script of "Layers in ACR" on RGB Dupe

Brand changes and click OK in the ACR

+ Shift + drag resulting RGB Dupe layer in the original document of CMKY (centered)

Close the Dupe without saving changes

This gives me a new layer of ACR'ed to blend/mask in my original necessary file.

I tried the action of these steps and everything is working properly through ACR... but... the action is not which actually layer Dupe/cab ' ed more at the Original (drag and drop) document. The ACR Dupe'ed is closed so that the original file is left unchaged.

How can I automate the transfer of the Dupe to the Original layer?

I made a good many changes to Dr. Borwns layers of change in the script of the cab. Here are some of the most important changes.

1. now supports color RGB, CMYK, Lab and grayscale modes. If the document is not embedded tiff RGB is converted to RGB using RGB profile for work in Photohsop.

2 now supports vector masks.

3. the density and the pen of the mask Panel settings are now kept for channel and vector masks.

4. now, to keep the name of the original layer.

5. don't use a State in history.

It is a script of CS5. It can work in CS4, but I didn't test.

On my system when the document canvas size get above about 20-25 members ACR really slows down. Well above that and it takes too much time or crashes. So I would say that this script is not designed for documents with sizes really big canvas in high resolution.

I could not find a way to replace the contents of a smart object with a tiff file and do not have the ACR dialog show when the ACR are set to change the TIFF in ACR. Because of this it really cannot be registered by an action, the ACR dialog box will always show. If you install the script in the scripts folder, it can be called from an action like any other script. It just does not work in batch mode.

Support the transparent layer is still is not ideal because ACR does not support transparency. If it was my script, I drop the support of the transparent layer instead of trying to force ACR to do something is was not designed to do.
