How To Display / Delete IP Route Cache on Linux

How to display the route cache

ip route show cache
A sample entry from the list is:

217.212.227.18 from 172.16.0.69 via 192.168.0.1 dev eth2 src 172.16.0.50

cache mtu 1500 advmss 1460 hoplimit 64 iif eth0
This tells us that all requests from 172.16.0.69 (my machine's IP) to 217.212.227.18 (Akamai machine) gets routed via eth2 interface using the gateway 192.168.0.1 (Tata Indicom Broadband).

How to delete the route cache

ip route flush cache

Endian Firewall

With perilous threats from crackers and script kiddes lurking in the network, IT administrators could do no better than placing a firewall protection. Firewall prevents unwanted access to departmental systems while preventing local systems from attacking systems on the other network. It ensures that the traffic entering and leaving the secured LAN is accessing the correct applications on the correct computers. We had already done with the top free Windows firewall. However, there is cool open source firewall to take advantage of. Open source firewall not only offers better customization options, but also reduces the cost of ownership. After a comprehensive search we assorted the top 10 open source firewall. 1. Endian Firewall This is an open source firewall based on the IPCop Linux Firewall. It is one of the most widely used open source firewall with comprehensive features. It is almost an opensource Universal threat Management (UTM) device with a Statefull firewall, VPN, Webpro...

Typical Oracle RAC configurations

All configurations are based on the following building blocks: Hardware Server nodes Storage Networking Software Operating system Cluster software Oracle RAC (application) Application architecture Oracle9i RAC on RAW devices is based on a shared disk architecture. Figure 2-1 shows a two-node cluster. The lower solid line is the primary Oracle interconnect, the middle dashed line is the secondary Oracle interconnect. For high availability, both these networks should be defined in the HACMP as "private". HACMP/ESCRM provides Oracle9i RAC with the infrastructure for concurrent access to disks. Although HACMP provides concurrent access and a disk locking mechanism, this mechanism is not used. Oracle, instead, provides its own locking mechanism for concurrent data access, integrity, and consistency. Volume groups are varied on all the nodes, thus ensuring short failover time. This type of concurrent access can only be provided for RAW ...
