Evening All I've spent a few days trying to get my head around VLAN Access-Maps and VLAN Access-Filters. I am sharing my configuration which works fine in my GNS3 lab. This is not been tested in a production environment so I would advise caution and some thorough testing before bringing into a live environment. So above is my test environment for VLAN Filters. Layer three is done on Router 1. I did actually try it on the L2 Switch however I couldnt get intervlan routing working so I had to use the Router. This is what is allowed  - Communication both ways between 10.0.20.4 and 10.0.20.3 Communication both ways from 10.0.20.0/24 to 10.0.10.5  I have provided a limited output of the switch. Basically, I am covering the access-lists, VLAN configuration and interface configuration for review. If you don't create the MAC access-list and apply it to the VLAN access-map, then the endpoints will not learn the IP address of the other end points. You can be restrictive an...

When using Windows 10 on a domain network, the wireless may show attention required and upon clicking the wireless connection name it disconnects and states "enter proxy server sign-in info". In the background, the client machine is making a connection to msftconnecttest.com/connecttest.txt. As the computer is not authorised to use the internet, but rather the user this was the cause of the popup. I whitelisted the domain msftconnecttest.com for computer authenication and now the wireless connects with no requests for further authentication.

The Microsoft NPS console fails to launch. The error shown is - FX:{6630f2d7-bd52-4072-bfa7-863f3d0c5da0} NPS This was due to an issue with WMI.

I had an issue recently where the client machine could not connect to any network resources. We noticed that the user had many TAP-Windows Adapters for VPN (OpenVPN). Some research suggests it occurs due to Microsoft products activating against a KMS server. Anyway, I have created a simple vbs (wsh) script which removes the excess devices in a safely manner. All you might need to change is the location of tapinstall.exe as it might be deployed with your VPN application. I have actually deployed the script by placing it in the netlogon share and using a GPO to create a scheduled task which executes the script on a weekly basis. I used a WMI filter and only targeted laptops.  Here is the script. Its not perfect, but I think it does a good job. Dim Shell,path,tempPath,tapInstPath32,tapInstPath64,objFSO Set Shell = CreateObject ("Wscript.Shell") Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") strComputer = "." count = 0 tapInstPath32 = ...
