Thanks for the reply. Good to know it's ok to use. I couldn't imagine what would be different in the 1600's to make them not work.
You see my forum name, it would be just my luck that there would be some issue with the workstation I just bought.
I'm assuming if it's not on the supported list that may mean it's just not been tested ?
googled it and didn't seen any hits on issues. Was thinking of trying it out on a Precision workstation but found the proc. unsupported.(or at least not listed as supported)
There are no obvious questions with this noob.
Anything I mention here, I just recently learned so take that with a grain of salt. I don't have much background in this. Talk to me like I'm a child... ;-)
I'm guessing I'll be setting this up as a JBOD, no external filer/controller. So this...
Made an impulse purchase on a NetApp DS14MK4 14X144 GB X274B-R5
I'm just beginning to get familiar with storage/datacenter type applications and processes to enhance network engineering skills and job duties that will likely come sooner than later. I work in a Network operations center that...
Added some more Juniper to the rack.
Our NOC is now close to fully staffed, around 45 analysts and 5 "engineers" per shift, and supposedly our "Engineer" training will be coming soon. We already do quite a bit of customer CPE side configuration in the MPLS SAR's and Ethernet switches, but...
Juniper SRX210 love, anyone ?

I, while working as the quality inspector for a cabling company, actually had to give a safety class on proper cutting of tiewrap excess due someone leaving a sharp piece out on an assembly line at one of our Fortune 100 customers and an employee getting cut.
It definitely happens.
Wouldn't call it necessarily High End, but I put together CCNA racks for sale on e-bay.
This one has
2651xm 12.4T
2621 12.4
2620 12.4
2 x 2950G EI
2509rj Access server
cabling is custom made to length, and it comes with a table top rack, and AUI adaptor for the 2509 for remote access.

The Desks on the right in the big pic monitor National Transport. Cisco CRS, Infinera, Alcatel, Juniper.
The Desks on the left monitor around 15-20k Cell towers, and thousands of commercial accounts, on a mixed Alcatel(7xxx), Juniper(Mx/Ex), Cisco(ASR/ME) Carrier Ethernet network. We also...
Carrier Ethernet rack making progress, and moving into our new NOC digs, along with a promotion to Engineer.
New Dell powerconnect. Only mention because $8 NIB network switches should always be mentioned...
Need to pick up another SRX210. I wasn't sure how limited the L3 functions would be...
Carrier Ethernet portion of my rack cleaned up a bit and added more cable management.
Up to an ADVA 825, and a GE206v, just waiting on fiber jumpers to arrive to set them up in GNE/SNE mode, then setting up E-line, and E-LAN, and E-Tree. Added a dedicated 2960 to the Carrier portion as well...
so apparently for the OP initial request, the solution is something expensive, and that he may have no experience with...
Ok, gotcha. I'm sure there is at least one other obscure linux-based switch/router that someone else can come up with.
If you're going to suggest a $400 1941, then you...
Yeah, the 2970 isn't L3, but if he can get by with just two GigE ports, a 2960 can do static routing, and you can pick them up all day for under $50.00
Or a $75.00 1841, as someone else mentioned, with 12.4T and Zone-based firewalls built-in, and a 2970, which I have seen recent won auctions...
Dunno about all that.
Like I said, you can pick up a 24 port GigE Cisco 2970 for under $100 if you look. Does the Woven provide more options than Cisco IOS ?
I signed up for a free cisco account and was able to download 2960 15.0 IOS for free(with HTML mgmt), or a 12.2 version that makes it a...
