Got an issue on Jabber Video 4.6 on Mac, it can login but can't recognize the iSight camera after I upgraded my MBP to Maverick. You need to upgrade to 4.7 in order to fix this issue. I have upgraded to 4.7.4 and works well on my Mac.

OTV - Selective Unicast Flooding
Normally in OTV, unknown unicast frames are not flooded between OTV sites and MAC addresses are not learned across the overlay interface. Any unknown unicast messages that reach the OTV edge device are blocked to prevent layer 2 errors spreading to remote sites. It is assumed the end points are not silent or unidirectional. If there is any silent hosts or Microsoft unicast mode NLB is used in your data center, your host will be "disappeared" from the view of other OTV sites. In 6.2(2) and later, a new feature called selective unicast flooding is introduced and you can issue the command on the OTV VDCs at the site where the server / silent host exists, in result the specified destination MAC address is flooded to all other edge devices in the OTV overlay network with that unknown unicast traffic.

RBAC - san-admin on Nexus 5500
Starting from NX-OS 5.2(1)N1(1), Nexus 5500 has a new predefined role "san-admin" which allows you to provide clear demarcation on what SAN and LAN team can do on the Nexus 5500. You can use this for your DCNM for SAN too. I have tried it on my DCNM 6.2(3) in lab and it works fine. User with this right can do most of the things on DCNM for SAN but not DCNM for LAN. Here is the detail on what a predefined san-admin role can do:
POC-N5K# sh role name san-admin
Role: san-admin
Description: Predefined system role for san administrators. This role
cannot be modified.

UCSM 2.1.3a - Login Error: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 400
Recently I have run into an issue in a customer PoC and encountered a weird issue. Everything looks fine except I cannot login UCSM. The UCSM code I am running is 2.1.3a, and I have got the error message:
"Login Error: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 400 for URL: http://ucsm_ip:443/nuova"
Eventually I've found out the JRE 7u45 update breaks this, after lowering the version it works fine now.

Apps update - Ring Ring Ring 1.2
Another apps that got update is Ring Ring Ring, this is an application that allow you to use your iPhone address book, click to dial using your IP phone. So it reduces the hassle to sync your iPhone contact list with your UCM personal directory. You simply use your iPhone contact list as your personal directory.
I haven't made much change to this app, for sure you can give me idea what feature should I add. Basically I have just optimise it for the 4-inch Retina display.
You can get the entry from your address book by clicking the address book icon on the right. Then the contact will show up.
Simply click on the phone number, then it will ask your IP phone to make phone calls.
Alternatively you can use the number pad instead of phone book entry to make calls.

Meraki Facebook Wifi
Just got a chance to test out an interesting Meraki feature – Facebook wifi. That is basically used for say for example a wireless hotspot, instead of showing a boring, standard splash page, now you are redirected to a Facebook page and you are required to "Check-in" before you can access Internet. Meraki's management portal is very easy to use, basically you don't need any guides / manual to set things up.
This is the Facebook Wifi help page, currently only Meraki and CMX supports this type of integration:
On the Facebook side, you need to make your page in the "Local Business" category, and provide a street address so that people can Check in to your place. You can also configure the bypass mode, so that for people who do not have Facebook account, or don't want to use their Facebook account to check in, to either use a pre-shared code or even click through the splash page.
On Meraki you need to choose the splash page of your SSID to use Facebook Wifi:
Then it is all done! You can now try to access Internet, you will be redirected to the Facebook check-in page before you can continue browsing the Internet.
