A unique issue presented itself while reviewing some of the comments in the article: http://serversideup.net/style-the-html-5-audio-element/. One of the questions was how to use the audio tag for live streams? The issue wasn’t necessarily playing the music, but getting the music to stop downloading when the user had the music paused (to save bandwidth) and to play from where the current point of the stream was at rather than starting from where the user paused the stream.

The values that you load in the second box depend on the selection of the first box. There are three options on how to do this:

So I have been getting a lot of questions in regards to programming Cisco Routers and Cisco Switches. The following document is what I took down as notes when I had to program a Cisco Router running Cisco IOS. Most of it is applicable to cisco routers, but most commands will work with switches as well.
