How can I use a serial to ethernet cable to connect to a device: in my case a Hp ProCurve AP?
A serial to USB or serial to serial would have been great but I found this serial to ethernet cable from a Cisco router lying around and I though that I might use it.
Is it possible?
I would like to test a small website's loading speed around the world.
What are some relevant websites/tools that you find useful for this test?
Is it possible to use mod_deflate in Apache 2.2 only for files bigger than a certain size ?
According to this article and common sense only files over 1000 bytes benefit deflate/gzip.
How can I measure the performance penalty of a network adapter that is configured with 2 IP addresses per eth0 ?
The network card has 2 physical interfaces (ports): eth0 and eth1 with only eth0 enabled and configured with 2 IP's: one for host (Ubuntu 8.04) and one for virtual machine (VirtualBox 4.x bridged mode).
If I configure the second IP to eth1 and set the virtual machine to bridge on it will it have any impact ?
