Haha, I know the feeling all too well, for most, a T1 isn't enough bandwidth w/ all the streaming services and cloud applications. Although there are many customers I help that a T1 will provide sufficient bandwidth, especially in areas where fiber builds are cost prohibitve. Believe it or not...

Like most have said, the biggest advantage to any MPLS service is the SLA provided with it. While frame relay networks are on the way out the door right now, the frame relay encapsulation still has a useful purpose. Look up Multi-Vrf CE, Cisco has some great documentation on it. With Multi-Vrf...

Depending on your needs, you might look at a Dell R210 or R220. I have a buddy that has installed them as file servers, and I've also seen them installed as bandwidth testing servers w/ 10gb interfaces. They are only 16 inches, so they might work out pretty well. I also know that SuperMicro...

This is what I'm using for my snmpv3 implementation. I'm using Nagios to monitor interface / environmental statistics on my routers, Cacti to monitor my subinterface utilization, and a custom shell script for when I need to push config changes out to my devices. access-list 50 remark Permit...

Well there could be several different issues going on, the simplest way to help us figure out what is going on, would be to post a sanitized config of the switch. Reason being is that you could be running trunk's, the port could be set to the incorrect vlan, or one of a million different...

I looked a few years back, and the only Gigabit Ethernet cards for laptops that you will find are going to be expresscard. The reason being that the older add-on cards for laptops just don't have the bus speed to push gigabit ethernet. If anything, you may wan't to look into the other factors...

If anything, and if I'm remembering correctly, you should be able to save the password into the RDP profile on the machine you are connecting from.

After briefly looking at your config, my first guess would be that your vpn ip range exists inside of your inside ip range. This may present some issues, you may want to look into using a different range for your vpns, possibly 192.168.2.0/28.

So I am working on this project to try and consolidate some of the equipment that we have in the field, and I was wondering if it is possible to have a Cisco 1841 configured so that it will accept NAT traffic on it's outside interface (which is inside a clients network), and then forward that...

I hope you mean downgrade....

As with everyone else, I also recommend just hitting the CLI and going that way. Although what I have done that is always nice for some of the more advanced stuff is to set it up with the SDM, and then look and see what it has done. The reason the SDM is probably not working for you may be...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RJ11#RJ11 For line 1, just carry the wires over to the second connector as normal. For line 2, just wire t2 and r2 to where t1 and r1 are on the other jack. Hopefully it should be fairly straightforward.

Where I am, we have several hundred 1700 series routers in the field. They've been going strong since 1999. The biggest issue that I have seen with them are the power connectors when a user touches the router and causes it to reboot. Always nice when on a support call. "Ooops, looks like you...

Yea, it's been long enough I don't remember what any of the pricing was. For the VLANS, what I could tell is all you have to do is assign a different one to each interface, kinda retarded.

The Netgear UTM's are pretty decent for the price, the subscription price is also quite nice. If I remember right, it does support VLAN's although it is probably a little quirky to set up, I'm not 100% sure if it supports VLAN tagging (yes I know, a little on the asinine side). The normal VPN...
