Nice video, we are replacing our core switches. Wish me luck.

I am curious what type of patch cables you are using. Also LOVE the line about sitting around subnetting or doing route calculations. You do quite a bit in a various roles which is AWESOME! I've been over this weekend working on server migrations / storage for backups and replication issues. Also gottta love some vendors, bless them when they say they don't need to refer to it, but you did the extra step to connect it cause this isn't your first rodeo lol!

Late for a FE is sunrise. I'm driving home dead tired while most folks are all coffee'd up late to arrive at work. Sleep deprivation is real. But so is the overtime

Whats the story with that oompaloompa closet? Were they desperate for space and said "This inaccessible spot right here looks good!" or did they need more height in the room below it and said "Screw that IT closet, they can just deal with it!" kinda thing? Just a rather strange spot to shoehorn a closet into. I liked the edits in the first part of the video as well. Keep up the good work!

Greetings from Sys admin! - Was the installation of the patch cables for the terminal server or something else?

[keithsauer]

So far so good on PanOS 11.1.2-H4 here. I don't know what version your on but it seems to be ok on 1420's and 460's.

Hi network admin what type STP do you using between the access uplinks to the fabric?

[johng.]

oh that is your serial terminal server.
my Terminal server was a server on its last legs and needed replacing like a year ago. it has now pushed off to silicon heaven, also known as recyling. the intermittant fault that was causing a lot of repeat problems which turned out to be a fatal fault.
