We buy spares of everything in production and they double as lab equipment.

Look into CESID settings per site

Maybe it’s in the upgrade bundle zip file? I’ve never looked inside but it’s worth checking

sletonrot

Astro?

You can take pride as the project manager even if you hire an integrator. You made the vision a reality.

sletonrot

Which monitoring software is that?

sletonrot

We do BGP taking default routes using our PA firewalls. No point in adding routers if you are only taking default routes

sletonrot

What’s your transport rule look like for this? Last time I tried to implement this, I couldn’t figure out the right criteria

sletonrot

This is the way. I check our logs daily now, and all GP login attempts are legitimate after implementing this.

These days I’m seeing a CE is just a Ciena switch doing qinq directly to a port on the PE router.

I was thinking the same thing. His prefix is announced over the BGP session, which is established. Comcast sees the source IP of the BGP session as being the other end of the /30 p2p they typically provide. So this passes the RPF check. My guess is an ACL somewhere on Comcast's side preventing propagation of his prefix.

sletonrot

I do that. ~20 or so L3 switches running OSPF on a VLAN on our VPLS. Works fine

sletonrot

Noob here, how does EVPN help? Isn’t VPLS still stretching layer 2?

sletonrot

But is it down?

As long as our budget keeps getting approved, we’ll keep paying. We don’t have the staffing or time for a migration.

sletonrot

Probably a bug, try updating firmware while you’re at it!

It would be a shame if your Juniper lost power...

For one-off Excel stuff, I like to use the Python Pandas library

sletonrot

We usually just enable bpdufilter and disable cdp/lldp/dtp

sletonrot

Yeah, drive unless you want to stand around in lines and watch people cutting in front. Security is a huge bottleneck at GP

Grand Prix is a mess

sletonrot

I learned it on a physical lab

"Can we move this to the cloud?"
