Using Tintri's in a VDI environment. They simply kick ass. Chosen over 3PAR systems.

Do it. It's a good service. I've migrated several domains over to it and have had great luck so far.

So, I used Fluxlight based on recommendations from others I've talked to. They've been great so far. I did have one fail, and called it in under warranty. Anyway, I put the SFP in my pocket and ended up forgetting about it and it went through the washer/dryer. I sent an email back to...

It's not as simple as simply upgrading the version of OpenSSL. That's not going to fix it. To actually FIX it, you need to re-key all your SSL/TLS certificates and remove all certificates that have been used with vulnerable versions of OpenSSL. Just want to make sure that you know it isn't...

I run XenServer 6.0.2 and 6.2, currently running the Enterprise license. I haven't had but a couple of little quirks, which were fixed with a patch update.

I have two different storage arrays, 16TB total on each box, attached through two NICs on each box (both 1gb) through LACP using iSCSI. This works like a champ and I have had no issues at all. Once you get to the command line menu in FreeNAS, tell it you want to create a bond and it will take...

I might suggest something from Fit-PC. I've purchased two units from them and they're solid. Dual Intel NICs, Atom or faster processor, upgradeable (to a point). They run pfSense like a champ. http://www.fit-pc.com/web/

You really ought to get the other two hard drives and have the DO license consume them into your current CPGs. The nodes need to be balanced if you're running all of those node pairs as one. the 3PARs will RAID up....so CAGE 0, DRIVE 0, then CAGE 1, DRIVE 0, etc. I'm just assuming you have it...

3PAR doesn't use RAID in the common sense that you add drives to the array. They use chunklets and RAID across the chunklets. You never have a hot spare/global spare drive. You have spare chunklets on all drives. You can set them to be available where when they are grouped, you can lose an...

If the DoD wanted to look at traffic, they're certainly not going to put a route in there. They are going to tap it and push it to any number of traffic analyzers.

As an admin of a very large Aruba deployment, I have nothing but good things to say about them. They get more expensive the more things you want the APs to do, detect, etc. I like the fact that if the AP isn't being used, it automatically goes into Air Monitor mode to be a wifi detector and...

I manage a large Aruba network and they have been solid on controllers and access points, both indoor and outside.

We have a mitsubishi mini-split system for AC cooling only. I live in West Texas where we can get to 0 degrees at night and 110 in the summer as well. The mini-split has worked perfect.

PA is expensive because of their software, which is their secret sauce. Basic firewalling and whatnot is basically the same as other devices...but with PA, you aren't looking for the same as other devices. Rules for adding internet access are something like: trusted zone --> untrusted...

Correct. If OP had googled his thread name "Intel 6200 vs 6300 wifi", the first link showed the answer more than two years ago.

I've purchased Supermicro barebones systems from Newegg and Provantage. The Supermicro stuff doesn't come with hard drives, memory or CPU, but does rails and anything else you would expect for a server. You buy the memory (speed and amount), CPU (speed) and hard drives that you want for your...

I see a bottle of Siracha in the background.

I really like on the 3Pars how they are cabled in the back....all nice and tidy. The F series is nice, the T series better, but I'm playing with the V series now too....whoa man.

The 4000 series switches now actually have wireshark embedded in them I believe. Nice stuff to have for sure since it can capture without worrying about a span port that is overloaded and you begin to not see information crossing the wire.

Works fine for us. We recently (this past weekend) were migrated from their BPOS to the Office 365 platform. I don't get much spam at all come through, and most of it is legitimate email....just not filtered by me saying it's junk. Every week or two though, you get an email from Microsoft...

I have several Crucial M4's and a couple of the C300 series. I've had OCZ as well. All of the ones I'm buying now are the M4's. I haven't had any issues with any of them in desktops, PC laptops or my macbooks. The M4 is the way I would go.

Cisco is better.....hmmmm.....have to mull over that one. Anyway, I purchased one of these http://www.roc-noc.com/mikrotik/routerboard/RB2011L-IN.html and should get it in today or tomorrow. It's going to replace a Fit-PC2 running pfSense and we'll see how it goes.

I'm actually a big enough pfSense fan that I've donated a poweredge server to them for developement. And, I've run pfSense for quite some time. However, I recently purchased a mikrotik box and am using it for everything. HOLY SH*T. Mikrotik is where it's at now as far as I'm concerned...

Either this or if it's on it's own network segment, just route traffic through IP ROUTE or similar.

From everything I've seen, heard, etc....they won't be in stock until July 2012.

I actually worked for a mfg of canned air (an OEM for quite a few well known brands), the industry calls it Duster. Man, I'd hate to tell you all how cheap it is to actually make and what we sell it to distributors for. All of your markup comes from the vendors, Target, Wal-Mart, etc... I...

The reason VLAN 1 became a special VLAN is that L2 devices needed to have a default VLAN to assign to their ports, including their management port(s). In addition to that, many L2 protocols such as CDP, PAgP, and VTP needed to be sent on a specific VLAN on trunk links. VLAN 1 may sometimes...

Currently running a Cisco 1921 ISR. Soon to be a FIT-PC2 with latest pfSense so the ISR can go back to the lab. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps10819/index.html http://www.fit-pc.com/web/fit-pc/fit-pc2-models/

I want to say as a side note that using VLAN 1 is not considered best practices. Everything runs on VLAN 1 by default and that just opens you up to security risks that wouldn't be there should you shut down VLAN 1 and move to a different VLAN. This picture might make some sense to you as well...

If you untag a port, that just means that that VLAN will be it's default. Any vlans afterwards that you tag will allow traffic to pass from those vlans as well. So, if you're needing an IP address on VLAN 100, but want to allow other traffic on different vlans, then UNTAG 100 so the AP will...

I usually get Cisco memory from memoryx.net. You can search by specific devices on there. I've never had issues with any of the memory from them and I've upgraded many different cisco devices, including different models of ASAs, with no issues at all. Might at least give them a look. They...

Just to add to this about tagging a port with trunking on procurves. When you trunk a port on a Cisco device, by default it passes all vlans unless you specify which vlans to pass. You can pass all or just a few. On ProCurve stuff...they don't use the term trunking (because that's a cisco...

You can find a Cisco 1841 or so for pretty cheap. It's the previous model to the 1900, 2900, 3900 series out right now. You can probably get a 1921 for pretty cheap right now too. The 2960 will do static routing. I would still recommend an actual router though and not depend on what is...

The /30 is your point to point with your ISP. You will need a router to handle this and the switch you have is layer 2 only. On your router, you set the outside interface to 64.120.180.42 255.255.255.252 For your IP route statement, you route your stuff to their side, or 64.120.180.41...

stacking is a way to put multiple switches into a "stack" and manage them all from one IP address. You might take a look at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stackable_switch http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_stackable_switches#Comparison_of_stackable_layer_3_switches On the HP Procurve...

Are you looking for a cheap router that will handle an actual T3 or just T3 speeds? For an actual T3 with a BNC Male connector, then yes, you will have to have something larger than an 800 series, etc.. You will need a router that has a card with the appropriate connectors. Looking at a...

On the HP side, if you want VLAN data to go to a Cisco trunked port....then just tag the VLANs, don't untag them on that port. For instance, you have VLANs 80, 81, 82 and 83. On HP, tag those VLANs. On Cisco, you can either allow all by issuing the "switchport mode trunk" command or allow...

Haha, I can't stand it when people now tell me they have Cisco gear at home used in their home networks. No...you run consumer Linksys stuff with a new, shiny sticker. When you are running actual Cisco equipment that you can get in and manage, then come talk to me.

You can do a couple of things. One has to be performed on the server side though. 1) Split-tunneling: This will allow you to have two ip addresses assigned to your machine. One ip address will be from the VPN server side and the other would be from your home network router/dhcp...
