Forwarding invitations

       

 Considerable care and thought should always be given to forwarding invitations. Core etiquette and Netiquette principles maintain almost sacrosanct adherence to avoid misusing the privacy of communications. If a situation is presented where an invitee wishes to add someone to a private meeting, social event, or other gathering, there are a number of steps that should be taken:

1.     Seek permission of the inviter (original sender).

2.     Determine who should be on the distribution list.

3.     Copy the original invitee.

4.     Remove unnecessary threads, but keep confidentiality clauses and disclaimers.

5.     Identify that this is a forwarded document.

6.     Ask the recipient not to forward the document, or attach a legal notice, if necessary.

7.     Never assume a sender will approve of forwarding correspondence.

8.     Do not forward documents if under nondisclosure or confidentiality agreements,

9.     Never add controversial, discriminatory, or derogatory comments to the basic text.

10.      Explain briefly and clearly to the recipient why the invitation is being forwarded. One should be mindful that some people will be offended because they were not original invitees.

11.      One may be selective in showing a full list of invitees, depending on any number of reasons, including size of the list, possible effect on attendance, specific instructions, or any number of other reasons.

In these 10 sets of questions and answers, you'll find simplified definitions and brief examples of verb-related terms in English. For additional examples and more detailed discussions of these key grammatical concepts, click on the links in bold.

1. What's the difference between a regular verb and an irregular verb?
   A regular verb (also known as a weak verb) forms its past tense and past participle by adding -d or -ed (or in some cases -t) to the base form: walked, talked. An irregular verb (or strong verb) doesn't have a conventional -ed form: rang, chose.
    

1. What's the difference between an auxiliary verb and a main verb?
   An auxiliary verb (also known as a helping verb) is a verb (such as have, do, or will) that may come before the main verb in a sentence. Together the auxiliary verb and the main verb form a verb phrase. A main verb (also known as a lexical verb or full verb) is any verb that isn't an auxiliary verb. The main verb conveys the meaning in a verb phrase.
    
2. What's the difference between a transitive verb and an intransitive verb?
   A transitive verb takes an object; an intransitive verb does not. Many verbs have both a transitive and an intransitive function, depending on how they're used. The verb burn, for instance, sometimes takes a direct object ("Jack burned the hot dogs") and sometimes doesn't ("The fire burned brightly").
     
3. What's the difference between active voice and passive voice?
   Voice refers to the quality of a verb that shows whether its subject acts (active voice: I made mistakes) or is acted upon (passive voice: Mistakes were made).
    

1. What's the difference between a dynamic verb and a stative verb?
   A dynamic verb (such as run, ride, grow, throw) is primarily used to indicate an action, process, or sensation. In contrast, a stative verb (such as be, have, seem, know) is primarily used to describe a state or situation. (Because the boundary between dynamic and stative verbs can be fuzzy, it's generally more useful to talk of dynamic and stative meaning and usage.)
    

1. What's the difference between a phrasal verb and a prepositional verb?
   A phrasal verb (such as tear off or pull through) is made up of a main verb (usually one of action or movement) and a prepositional adverb--also known as an adverbial particle (of direction or location). A prepositional verb (such as send for or rely on) is an idiomatic expression that combines a main verb and a preposition to make a new verb with a distinct meaning.
    
2. What's the difference between aspect and tense?
   Aspect is the verb form that indicates the time at which an event or state of affairs is perceived as taking place. The two aspects in English are perfect and progressive. Tense is the time of a verb's action or state of being, such as present or past.
    
3. What's the difference between a finite verb and a nonfinite verb?
   A finite verb shows agreement with a subject and is marked for tense. (If there's just one verb in a sentence, it's finite.) A nonfinite verb (also called a verbal) doesn't show a distinction in tense and can't stand alone as the main verb in a sentence.
    
4. What's the difference between a gerund and a present participle?
   Both of these -ing forms are verbals. A gerund functions as a noun. (Laughing is good for you.) A present participle functions as an adjective. (The old laughing lady dropped by to call.)
    

1. What's the difference between an infinitive and a zero infinitive?
   Both are verbals that can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs. A conventional infinitive (sometimes called the "to"-infinitive) is preceded by the particle to. The zero infinitive (also known as the bare infinitive) is not preceded by to.

Netiquette IQ Technical Term Of The Day 4/5/17 - Graph Database

Buy the books at

 www.amazon.com/author/paulbabicki

Graph Database via  whatis.com

A graph database, also called a graph-oriented database, is a type of NoSQL database that uses graph theory to store, map and query relationships.  A graph database is essentially a collection of nodes and edges. Each node represents an entity (such as a person or business) and each edge represents a connection or relationship between two nodes. Every node in a graph database is defined by a unique identifier, a set of outgoing edges and/or incoming edges and a set of properties expressed as key/value pairs. Each edge is defined by a unique identifier, a starting-place and/or ending-place node and a set of properties. The mantra of graph database enthusiasts is "If you can whiteboard it, you can graph it."  Graph databases are well-suited for analyzing interconnections, which is why there has been a lot of interest in using graph databases to mine data from social media. Graph databases are also useful for working with data in business disciplines that involve complex relationships and dynamic schema, such as supply chain management, identifying the source of an IP telephony issue, distinguishing fraudulent behavior from valid instances of similar transactions and creating "customers who bought this also looked at..." recommendations. The concept behind graphing a database is often credited to 18th century mathematician Leonhard Euler.

5 Advanced Network Troubleshooting Tools

NETWORKING

From networkcomputing.com

Go beyond the basics with tools like protocol analyzers to streamline troubleshooting.

Network administrators must be prepared to troubleshoot a wide range of problems across the entire enterprise infrastructure. One minute they may be troubleshooting why a PC can't authenticate to the wireless network, while the next they may be trying to figure out why a BGP neighbor is flapping. While network pros have long relied on basic tools troubleshooting tools such as ping, traceroute and DNS lookups, more advanced tools can streamline the process. Here are five tools that make network troubleshooting easier and more efficient.

1. Protocol analyzer

If you're troubleshooting difficult network issues that require you to investigate data flows down to the packet level, a protocol analyzer is your absolute best choice. A protocol analyzer is a piece of software that intercepts and logs packets so  you can closely review them and see specific interactions between clients and servers. For example, if a particular PC has a slow connection to an application residing on a server, you can use a protocol analyzer to identify any communication problems, latency issues or other problems that could be the root cause.

Protocol analyzers such as Wireshark are simple applications that you can install on a laptop and position on a network switch using port mirroring to collect specific data on a case-by-case basis. Alternatively, you can deploy commercial network-wide protocol analyzers that have the ability to capture a much wider range of data.

2. SNMP monitoring tools

The Simple Network Monitoring Protocol (SNMP) is a way to monitor infrastructure equipment. In enterprise environments, SNMP tools such as SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor, HPE's Network Node Manager i (NNMi) or CA Spectrum monitor the health of network devices and specific interfaces. Alerts can be set up to notify network engineers when a specific interface or device goes down. This helps administrators quickly zero in on the root cause of network outages. Bandwidth utilization on network interfaces through the use of SNMP collection tools also helps create a traffic baseline. When data flows clearly change outside of the baseline, it’s an indication that a problem has occurred in this area.

3. NetFlow analytics

NetFlow is a protocol that was originally developed by Cisco Systems to collect IP network traffic in order to create an end-to-end picture of individual traffic flows. Most enterprise-class routers and multi-layer switches can be configured to generate flow data and send it to a centralized NetFlow collection server. Once the data is collected and indexed, an administrator can then use NetFlow analytics tools such as Plixer’s Scrutinizer or SevOne’s NetFlow tool to drill into the data for a number of uses. From a network troubleshooting perspective, NetFlow analytics can quickly track things such as top applications, top hosts and changes in network flow behavior to spot problems such as bandwidth hogs.

4. Centralized log management

The practice of deciphering network device logs is an extremely useful troubleshooting technique. Centralized log management tools such as Splunk and Graylog streamline this practice by collecting and storing all network device logs into a central repository then using analytics to correlate log events from multiple devices to identify and quickly resolve network problems. Centralizing log analysis significantly speeds up the troubleshooting process, especially when the problem is complex and difficult to pinpoint. You can also use a centralized log management system to automate the triggering of various notification alerts.

5. WiFi analyzers

An organization's wireless network is rapidly becoming the primary connectivity method for end-user network access. Because of this, administrators are under increasing pressure to maintain a WiFi presence that is highly reliable and ubiquitous. WiFi relies on the use of the unlicensed 2.4 and 5GHz frequency spectrums, which are prone to interference by everything from neighboring WiFi devices, microwave ovens, airport radar, and obstructions such brick walls. Tracking down the cause of interference can be tricky without the right tools. Professional WiFi analyzers such as Netscout AirMagnet or Ekahau Spectrum Analyzer allow network administrators to identify interference that causes degraded WiFi performance so it can be quickly eliminated.
