I’m Going on Holiday, What do I need to Disable on my iPhone?

Problem

Here in Europe the big mobile Telco’s are being forced to keep roaming prices down. But going abroad with all your data services turned on can mean you might come back to a big bill.

Solution

1. On most peoples phones “Data Roaming” is already disabled (Mines always off).Data Roaming is designed to let you use another provider’s phone network if your carrier signal is too weak. On some sites it says you cant use your phone abroad if you have this disabled I DISAGREE, I’ve got it disabled and I use my phone every time I’m out of the country?

Settings > General > Network > Data Roaming.

2. If you see ActiveSync and/or have mail pushed to your phone, you might want to also disable “Mobile Data” to stop that happening while your away.

Settings > General > Network > Mobile Data.

3. That’s Data stopped but your phone will still function as a phone. WARNING you may still be charged “call forwarding” if your phone rings and you let it go to answer phone while you are away. I don’t mind that, because I prefer to keep my phone on. If you want to disable the phone and text features as well, e.g. You Just want to use the Camera, iPod, and Alarm capabilities. Then just put the phone in Airplane mode, (which isn’t a word Apple! The word is Aeroplane!)

Settings > Airplane Mode.

Cisco IOS and ASA Showing the Config Without the ‘More’ Breaks/Pauses

Posted on by

Problem

When looking at a router, switch or firewall running config, it will usually display a page at a time, you can page down with the space bar, or line down with the Enter/Return key.

Normally that’s fine, but what if you want to capture (take a quick backup,) of the config?

If you do that, and page down you get a copy of the config that looks like this;

–More–

Yes, you can delete them, but in a big config that can take time, how about making the config scroll right to the end without the breaks/pauses.

Solution

Cisco ASA Disable Paging

On a firewall that’s done with a pager command, normally a firewall config will display 25 lines at a time, to get it to scroll straight to the end set the pager length to zero.

[box]

Type help or '?' for a list of available commands.
Petes-ASA> enable
Password:*********
Petes-ASA# configure terminal
Petes-ASA(config)# pager 0
Petes-ASA(config)#

[/box]

Tip: If you want to take a copy of a firewall config it will blank, (replace with asterisks) the VPN shared secrets and failover keys, you can suppress that from happening, and show the hidden values with the following command;

[box]

Petes-ASA(config)# more system:running-config

[/box]

To return it back to pausing every 25 lines and giving the <— More —> prompt again.

[box]

Petes-ASA(config)# pager 25

[/box]

Cisco Router / Switch IOS Terminal Length

On IOS the default is 24 lines at a time (show terminal will tell you). You can change this by changing the terminal length. Note: This is NOT a global configuration command.

[box]

Petes-Router#terminal length 0

[/box]

To reset it, and get the –More– prompt back again;

[box]

Petes-Router#terminal length 24

[/box]
