    Blade Servers vs 1U server noise

    I pretty much took my gaming desktop and turned it into an ESXi whitebox. The only thing that didn't work was the software raid controller on my motherboard or the NIC. I bought an Intel PCI-E NIC and I have had no other problems for 5 months. Specs: ASUS Maximus IV Gene-Z Intel i5 2500K 32GB...

    Dismal state of many people's computers....

    Experinces and opionons on VSA?

    I can't answer your questions in regards to VSA but I can offer a cheaper (free) alternative for virtualized shared storage. Have you considered FreeNAS?

    Blade Servers vs 1U server noise

    Have you considered a whitebox or three. You could easily build some i5/i7, 32GB DDR3 boxes and then run virtual ESXi hosts and storage as guest VM's on top of a bare metal ESXi install. All you need to do is echo vhv.allow = "TRUE" into the \etc\vmware\config file on the bare metal install...

    Lots of activity on my routers log

    Although security through obscurity is never a valid solution one thing that I do on my home network is forward a random port to RDP to an external server. I also lock down just who can access RDP services from the WAN via an ACL. Of course in a production environment everything would also be...

    A Simple Question Should be fairly easy to solve.

    The Cisco Campus model is definitely something to familiarize yourself with. I've deployed and maintained it in several large networks and I even run it in my home network. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Campus/campover.html

    CCENT/CCNA [H] study group

    Got all of my wisdom teeth torn out today, but I am using my extra time off and this weekend to spend a lot of time with BGP. Forcing myself to use minimal painkillers so I can keep my mind clear, plus a little pain helps me stay alert during some of my extended reading sessions.

    CCENT/CCNA [H] study group

    Well, after talking with a few of the CCIE's at work I decided to ramp up my study plans. One of the CCIE's actually got his magic numbers at 25 years old ( I am 22) and he told me that I could get my CCIE just as quickly based on what he has seen so far. So, I got motivated and pulled the...

    Nice, I am going to get started with CCIE R&S as soon as I finish up CCNP R&S. For CCNP Switch I used 2x 3550 and 2x 2950 which worked pretty well (I passed the exam) The only problem with the 3550 is that it can't do PVLAN's or IPv6 so once I start CCIE I'll need to get some 3560's. I set...
