Pros

  • Lets you listen to iTunes plug-ins and effects via AirPort Express
  • Couldn't-be-simpler broadcasting of non-iTunes audio to an AirPort Express

Cons

  • Can broadcast to only a single AirPort Express at once
  • If you choose not to install Instant Hijack component, requires that applications be relaunched to broadcast their audio
  • Can't broadcast audio from multiple applications at the same time

Our Verdict

If you've got an Apple AirPort Express, you can use iTunes to 'broadcast' your music, wirelessly, to speakers connected to the Express; Apple calls this technology AirTunes . Unfortunately, AirTunes has several drawbacks, the most significant of which is that it can broadcast only audio playing in iTunes. If you want to listen to audio that isn't supported by iTunes—for example, Real Audio, Windows Media files, or audio being played in a Web browser—you're out of luck.

Well, sort of. Rogue Amoeba's $40 Nicecast (for Mac OS X) is a cool little utility that provides the ability to stream audio from an application over the Internet. As it turns out, since iTunes can listen to streaming audio, you can use Nicecast to stream audio from other applications into iTunes, which can then send that audio to an AirPort Express. Presto—AirTunes for any application. (Our sister publication, Macworld , even awarded Nicecast a 2004 Eddy Award for this capability.) But this is really just a clever kludge, and it's a bit of a hassle to get working: First you have to set up the audio stream, then you have to configure iTunes to 'receive' it, then you have to broadcast to your AirPort Express.

This isn't intended to be criticism of Nicecast—the application wasn't originally designed to perform such iTunes trickery. Nevertheless, the folks at Rogue Amoeba realized that they had discovered something quite useful, so they set out to make it easier to use. The result is the new $25 ($20 introductory price through the end of March) Airfoil (for Mac OS X). Put simply, Airfoil lets you stream audio from any single application directly to a chosen AirPort Express. And it couldn't be easier to use.

How it Works

In Airfoil's main window, you first choose the running application—from the Select pop-up menu—that's providing the audio you wish to transmit. (The menu also lists recent applications used in Airfoil, as well as a Select Application item that lets you choose an application that isn't currently running. If you option+click the menu, hidden applications are also shown.) You then select the AirPort Express unit to which you wish to transmit. (If you've got only one, it will be selected by default.) Finally, you click the Transmit button—the application's audio will begin playing through your AirPort Express (or should I say, through any speakers connected to that AirPort Express). You can control the volume level of the signal via Airfoil or, if you prefer, you can set Airfoil's preferences so that it links its own volume level to your Mac's volume control.

Using Airfoil, you can easily broadcast audio from Windows Media Player, Real Player, MPlayer, QuickTime Player, or any other application that produces audio, including games and Web browsers. The latter makes Airfoil a great way to listen to Web broadcasts of sporting events on your home stereo. However, keep in mind that just like iTunes, there's a slight delay between when a sound is produced by an application and when it's played back by your AirPort Express, so don't expect to watch a DVD on your computer while playing the audio back through your stereo. (Actually, this is possible, though not without glitches: The free MPlayer OS X and VLC media player have audio offset/de-sync features that let you manually sync the audio and video of a DVD; the Airfoil Help system provides details on setting this up.)

Airfoil even offers advantages for those who are simply broadcasting iTunes audio. For example, whereas AirTunes mutes local audio when broadcasting, you can set Airfoil's preferences to play audio on the local computer while it's being played via your AirPort Express. (Note that because of the way AirPort Express audio transmission works, local and remote audio may be slightly out of sync.) And whereas audio effect plugins (such as the popular Volume Logic ) don't work with AirTunes, they do work via Airfoil. Lup 1 mac os. You simply need to set iTunes to play locally on your computer—not via AirTunes to your AirPort Express—and let Airfoil send the audio.

One quirk with Airfoil has to do with how it interacts with running applications. (I reluctantly call it a 'quirk,' as it's really a conscious decision by the developers, intended to address the concerns of users.) If you elect to install Airfoil's 'Instant Hijack' component—you're given the option the first time you launch the application, or you can install it at any time by choosing Airfoil -> Install Extras—then clicking the Transmit button commences the transmission immediately. However, Instant Hijack uses Unsanity's Application Enhancer technology. Some people refuse to use software that requires Application Enhancer, citing stability issues, so Rogue Amoeba has wisely devised a way for Airfoil to work without it. The drawback is that in order for this workaround to function, you need to either select the desired audio application in Airfoil before it's launched, or allow Airfoil to relaunch it if it's already running when you begin transmission. It's up to the user to decide which method—Application Enhancer or inconvenience—to choose.

Airfoil also offers a few hidden settings for advanced users, accessible by option+clicking the Transmit button. You can adjust the stream index; decide what happens when no audio is detected (stop the stream, add silence, or add noise); and customize audio device and channel settings. You can also choose the measurement displayed by Airfoil's audio meter by clicking on the meter and choosing the desired option (Off, In RMS, In Peak, Out RMS, or Out Peak) from the resulting pop-up menu.

Unfortunately, Airfoil can't currently overcome another significant drawback of AirTunes—like AirTunes, it can broadcast to only a single AirPort Express at a time. (Rogue Amoeba says that they're trying to incorporate the ability to send audio to multiple Express units simultaneously for a future version.) And it doesn't provide the ability to transmit all your computer's audio—a feature that would be useful for presentations. Finally, you need to disable the 'Speaker password' option on any AirPort Express you wish to use with Airfoil.

The Lowdown

Despite these issues, Airfoil brings AirTunes a few significant steps closer to its full potential–it unleashes AirTunes from iTunes and allows you to stream music from your Mac to your AirPort Express from the applications you choose. They see us mac os. For this service (and the ease with which it delivers it), Airfoil is a Playlist Pick.

(Airfoil is currently available only for Mac OS X; however, Rogue Amoeba has hinted that they're considering porting the utility to Windows.)

Symptoms: Some clients are unable to connect to the internet. https://machinesnowcasinoleprechauniacgamesslot.peatix.com. Some clients report a different IP address, subnet mask and default gateway, compared to others.

Caveats: Without a managed switch fabric, this is considerably more difficult.

Diagnosis:

1. Akbars quest: a work in progress mac os. Allow a device to get an IP address from the rogue server. You might need to disable the main DHCP server to allow this to happen, as DHCP is a broadcast protocol, so it's really a case of the early bird getting the worm.

1b: Kyle Gordon pointed out that this initially assumes that the DHCP server is the same as the default gateway. He suggests: Usually /var/lib/dhcpcd/*.info or /var/lib/NetworkManager/* will contain the dhcp-server-identifier info on Linux, and something in the Windows Event Logs will show similar :-)

2. Once you've got an IP from the rogue, look at the ethernet adaptor's status, and get the IP of the default gateway. For this example, we'll call it 10.1.1.1

3. Ping the default gateway for a few seconds. We need to do this to populate the ARP table.

4. In a Powershell/Cmd/Terminal window, run the command to view the ARP table. On windows, this is `arp -a`.

What you're looking for is the mapping between the IP address and the Physical (MAC) address.

5. Go to http://www.coffer.com/mac_find/ and paste the found Physical/MAC address of the rogue. This will tell you who made the device.

This works because all MAC address prefixes are registered by IANA, so you can look up a MAC address and it'll tell you who made the thing (roughly).

6. From the client with the rogue-assigned IP address, set up a long-running ping to the default gateway. We'll need this to confirm that it's been killed when we start unplugging/disabling ports.

7. Next, you want to open the management pages of all of the switches on the fabric of your network. Every switch has a MAC Address Table where it keeps track of physical switchports, and the learned MAC addresses it's seen on those ports.

8. Looking at the list of address tables (I find it's helpful to copy/paste them into a text editor, then do a search on the MAC of the rogue.) see if you can track down a port that has *only* that MAC assigned to it. If there's a single port on a managed device, you can disable/shutdown the port.

9. Failing that, if you find that the MAC is in the table, but on a port with other devices too, say, port 1 has 5 other things, and the rogue is one of them, then that indicates that there's another distribution switch on port 1, and the rogue is connected to that.

10. Hopefully, you might have some clue as to what is on each port, distribution switch wise, especially if you have managed under-desk distribution switches, although this is generally unlikely.

12. As you unplug devices, check whether the ping stops.

13. When the ping stops, you've found the rogue.

I actually worked through this process with one of my Astound Wireless customers, last night, over a VPN.

It's really relatively straight forward, but is made considerably easier with a managed switch fabric.

In this case, the rogue turned out to be an Apple Airport Extreme, which do tend to cause havok if misconfigured, or misconnected, as their default is to broadcast DHCP on the 3 LAN ports, which aren't obvious that they're LAN ports, as they have the mysterious <-> symbol.

Rogue Rabbit Mac Os X

I suspect whomever plugged it into the network, should've connected the link to the building's switch fabric to the WAN port of the Airport Extreme, rather than the LAN. Or at the very least, disabled the DHCP server on the Airport.

An ideal solution for preventing this kind of mishap is DHCP snooping, but that *does* require a fully managed switch fabric, and a non-insignificant amount of management overhead.
