    Cisco ios 15.2

    What Farva said is correct, to an extent. They might have once done that but now they havent supported gray market devices for quite some now. Being just a regular Cisco Customer ( not a vendor, employee, or otherwise), its actually stated that you are not allowed to re-sell their equipment...

    Problem with printing to a printer in remote site over L2TP vpn

    Are you trying to use the Server 2012 machine as a Print Server? I would setup the printer on each users machine. At my company, we do this at all of my locations that way its reliant on the end client machine in the event there is printer issues it should be isolated to just one client. You...

    What do people use for 2FA on RDP for Workstations?

    I've used Duo for the 2FA auth for RDP. I'm not sure when it was broken, but it has always worked for me. I stopped using it though and switched to something altogether besides RDP and 2FA that serves me better. Nothing wrong with it. It worked how it was supposed to.

    OSPF on Cisco Catalyst Routers

    ScrappyMouse is right. You can't use the same subnet for the WAN Links, At least not reliably and I've never gotten it to work. By using a routing protocol whether it be OSPF, BGP ,or EIGRP you are essentially advertising to other routers that you own that entire subnet (depending on subnet...

    NAS Suggestions for home use/Audio/Video/Kodi

    Another Vote for Plex. Been using it for about 6 years now and it has come a long way and works great across all my devices I have it running on my Synology Ds2415+ Which runs fine with Plex. With 12 bays and only using 6 at the moment, I'm pretty set. It also runs File shares, iSCSI, Cloud...

    Self Hosted Private File Sharing

    My company uses ShareFile by Citrix. They have a ton of features and its only $12 / month per user. They don't count vendors as users, so it would only be for your company users. Vendors and Clients all have free access that you assign to them. Unlimited storage and file size. I know its...

    How to connect my setup to a mobile hotspot?

    If you dont mind another Provider, AT&T has a Netgear Nighthawk Hotspot that has an Ethernet port built into it. I know, as I have one assigned to me for work. Netgear NightHawk 1100. It works pretty darn good.

    Problem with port switch?

    Sure it can. On a 100Mbp/s connection you can see 12MBp/s download. That comes out to roughly 120Mbp/s. I see it day in and day out. It doesn't stay there, but it can achieve it. OP can set the speed manually on the router and see what happens. If the connection to the modem dies, then...

    Problem with port switch?

    If the cable between the Modem and Router is fast E or going bad then all devices will experience the same fluctuation. One other thing to consider here is that if your service that you are paying for is not more than 100Mbp/s, than FastE ( I.E. 100Mbp/s connection) is more than enough to...

    Swapped Modems, same model, static WAN IP, Router couldn't reconnect

    How long did you leave everything off? I have TWC/Spectrum as well and every time with my old consumer Router ( Netgear or Dlink), I had to reboot it. Since I moved to a Cisco 2911 Router and I replace a modem do to whatever, I just leave the modem turned off for a while, Register the new one...

    need 24/7 internet - what are my options ?

    Another thing to consider as well since it wasnt mentioned what the OP was doing other than work, is offsite VPS hosting may be the more ideal solution. The provider maintains the power, network, ISP, server, and storage with a SLA and takes the overhead off you and your home network.

    need 24/7 internet - what are my options ?

    Dont know about that. Could depend on the router model, version, known bugs/issues... The only thing taxing my router at the moment is me via SSH! I'm not running the newest router or version with over 400 subnets with no issues. olympic-pip# sh proc cpu sort 5min CPU utilization for...

    need 24/7 internet - what are my options ?

    Set Up my First ESXI! Need some Advice and Guidence on Storage

    As Grayson said, you can get a Free ESXI key from VMware to run your box without a trial period. They have been handing out Free licenses since at least version 4.0 ( when I started with VMWare). The trial period is like most software; they let you try ALL that the software can do, then you...

    Set Up my First ESXI! Need some Advice and Guidence on Storage

    You need a VM to be running to host files over the network. ESXi is a Type 1 Hypervisor. All it knows how to do is interact with the hardware in the system. You need an OS to be running to host the files. To be honest, in my server room at work we have a few servers that have the SAS 6iR...

    Linux fails to bring up an interface saying the IP is in use, but it's not...

    Is HV short for Hypervisor or Hyper-V? I've never known any to act as a DHCP server unless its a Type 2 with the VM running in NAT Mode. You wont have a happy network if 2 devices have the same MAC address. Everyone thinks that when you send information from one computer to another on your...

    Depending on what Virtualization platform you are using, you can change the MAC address of the Virtual machine so that it doesnt clash with the ASA's MAC address. IP address bindings use the MAC address for reference so since the network is broadcasting out that "IP address is at MAC address...

    Prove that email was delivered?

    3rd on that you cant prove it on your end. Like Dead Parrot said, most systems will drop emails detected as spam from BL sources. I know since thats what I do at my company. Even before the email is routed through the system, we check the domain and IP address to see if its been listed for...

    Cisco 3560 VLAN / Switching question

    Can you share your config and tell us what is connected to what? Not all the connections, but at least a device in the MGMT VLAN, Users VLAN, and switch to router. Its kind of hard to tell you what to look for without knowing how its configured.

    VPN Blocking: How to Circumvent?

    What a load of waffle. If you want to do whatever you want on the internet, pay for it yourself. Get a hotspot or tether your phone, or simply do it from home behind your own Firewall. There is no true 100% secure network except for no network. Just ask AP Moller-Maersk, Merck, or Mondelez...

    Best router brand?

    That is almost like asking what is the best car or computer you can buy. You are almost going to get a different answer every time. Cisco 1921 or 2901 is my vote. Or a 5506-X. Depending on your service, you might have to bump up your price range depending on what you are going to be doing...

    WSUS OS upgrades being pushed to downstream replica servers

    PFSense for lots of VPN connections?

    Im curious as to what they are trying to actually accomplish. You gave a vague small brief of kind of what they are looking at, but not doing. Based on the above, you could get a nice QNAP device with redundant storage, power, networking that can run multiple VMs directly onboard with lots of...

    Why do Cisco devices usually include IP-Base IOS instead of Universal or IP-Services?

    Point Domain Name to Home Server?

    Ultimately, what are you trying to host? Hosting your down DNS server is different from hosting your own PUBLIC DNS server. I use a Cisco router to host my DNS at home, but I do not have a public DNS server. In fact, a good number of ISPs disallow this as someone could potentially poison the...

    TWC Modem Suggestion

    I personally have the Netgear Cm600. I had a good ole surfboard 6121. Served me well for a few years. Then TWC upgraded my speed for free. I found that the modem was limited to around 60-70mbps tops. I upgraded to an Arris (surfboard) 6190 since they have a great track record. Boy was I...

    Does Cisco have command to test bad port on their devices?

    You bet they do. Depending on the IOS version, some commands may not be available. The easiest one on i believe 99% of all switches is "Show Post". That will tell you the diagnostic information of the switch when it booted up. It will let you know if the switchport controller has failed the...

    What switch are you using for your home lab?

    I recently upgraded my core switch from a Cisco SG300-20 to a C2960S-24TS-L. Pairing it with my Cisco 1921 Router for ISP access just made sense. My lab switches are now Cisco 3560 and 3750G models. I have 2 2960 swtiches for pure L2 stuff.

    Cisco noob, DHCP+vlan not getting along

    Not needed. He has only 1 VLAN and its running on the Default VLAN. By default, all DHCP packets will be untagged and picked up by the DHCP server on the router. He also said his computers are getting IP addresses now so its a moot point. Also, all his FA ( layer 2) ports are in the 'no...

    Cisco noob, DHCP+vlan not getting along

    You got it! On most if not all "Consumer" grade routers, you will not be able to see all this information without ripping the pleasant bubbly firmware off it. One of the more common routers that this occurred on was Linksys's older WRT line. There were a lot of custom firmwares that you can...
