    in Duplicate NCM Policy Rule Comment by deverts July 2014
  • So, here's additional "food for thought." I've had a little exposure to SDN/ACI/automatic networking recently. Here's what I took away from the experience: * It took 15 CCIEs to build the environment, and requires 3 CCIEs to maintain it on a daily basis. All that, just so 1 App Developer can point and click to build a…
    in Automate All the Things! Comment by deverts March 2014
  • This is exactly what I'm talking about, moderate standardizing with agility. We all love salt on our food, but the Dr says salt is bad for us...moderate your intake so you can still enjoy it without causing yourself a stoke!

  • scuff​, I have to admit, I'm a bit taken back by this posting from you. I've read several of your previous, and you always come across as a Champion for cloud anything. So to see you posting about concerns and risks associated with cloud is a little baffling to me at the moment. That said, I have a recent story to tell all…
    in The Serverless Organization vs Reality Comment by deverts August 2017
  • My guess on what's next...I suspect Lync or Sharepoint; but I'd really like to see Oracle. At least at a DB level, but App level would be awesome too. This would also fall in line with Sohail Bhamani preference for WebSphere and Java...they are all part of 1 solid Oracle environment. Or course, Citrix probably wouldn't be…
    in Introducing AppInsight for Exchange - Server & Application Monitor 6.1 Beta 2 Sneak Peek Comment by deverts December 2013
  • rschroeder​, I don't typically inject my opinion when it's not asked for, but I've heard rumors from 3 different vendors that Cisco has halted development on the 6800's. I have a VSS pair already and when I started looking for a few more, I was basically talked out it and told to look at 4500s. I don't understand all the…
    in Its Goal Setting Time…How Are You Measuring Your Value? Comment by deverts March 2017
  • It's sometimes difficult to wrap your head around the paradigm shift occurring in IT these days. Standards breed stability yet, depending on the level of self-inflicted red tape that comes with it, can be extremely inefficient. The polar opposite, in my opinion, is Agile. Extremely efficient, but sometimes you sacrifice…

  • CourtesyIT, Just so you know, and everyone else knows, that I do take documentation seriously...even though I rarely have time to do a complete set, we are investigating NetBrain; and, will likely purchase it in our next budget cycle. As I said, time and project management rarely afford enough time to document properly (in…

  • #bumpsqaud​ All, After looking for an update to this, I found several posts all related to this; and at least 105 votes for it. I'm sure there are other posts and votes out there that I missed. SW team, please look at this. IP Address Group Request 40 votes 21 votes IPAM thoughts and wishlist... lots of comments 13 votes D

    in Site Information Tab Comment by deverts May 2018
  • Traditionally, I only monitor uplinks and business critical ports, so adding only the active ports made sense. However, UDT is changing that mentality...and now it almost makes sense to monitor all access ports as described above. D
    in Add Interfaces in "Unplugged" State Comment by deverts February 2014
  • I understand this is technically HF3 as the GA, but it's officially the .0 GA version, and I've been burnt in the past being on the .0 software. So let's just chalk it up as taking cautious steps forward.
    in Update to 2022.3 pop-up - annoying Comment by deverts September 2022
  • This is great! What else is needed to add Custom Properties and only show devices that are still down? I'd like to use this to replace the out-of-box "Node Down" widget.
    in Node Down Duration (swql) Comment by deverts April 2022
  • I sorta have this using syslog messages, however, I haven't been able to figure out the reset function. I trigger a syslog alert on "taken out of port-channel" and it works well to tell me when a member is down. I "had" another to process "added as member" but I can't get the 2 tasks correlated to each other and ended up…
    in Alert for when member of a port-channel is down Comment by deverts March 2022
  • Any training video is a good video, even if it's only to refresh terminology.
    in SSH Script Comment by deverts January 2018
  • If so, 15.2.2.E7 is the latest, and you above stated 15.2.4.E1 for the 3560CX. That link I just provided has a "Downloads" tab that redirects you to the correct version. Like you, I couldn't find the code directly on the Cisco site; only through that downloads tab.
    in SSH Script Comment by deverts January 2018
  • rgward and rob.hock, I appreciate this new view, but is there a way to get alerts on down thin APs? I had it working in NPM 9.5, but it's not worked since I upgraded to 10 (currently on 10.6). I'm using Cisco WLC750s. D

  • Please provide "show inventory"... I'm assuming it's this model: Cisco Catalyst 3560CG-8PC-S Compact Switch - Cisco
    in SSH Script Comment by deverts January 2018
  • Appears you downloaded incorrect code from Cisco. Your original show version tells us you have a Cisco Compact 3560C, you attempted to install 3560CX code. Those are different switches, the 3560C was the initial compact switch from Cisco, but they have revamped it and are now selling 3560CX and 3650. I'm hoping SW develops…
    in SSH Script Comment by deverts January 2018
  • You don't need it. The command I have above is "logging synchronous." By not applying a "login authentication" command/setup, the switch will use the local AAA (TACACS) setup first, then the local usernames second. By configuring the AAA commands above, you are telling the TACACS process to use the local usernames, but you…

  • You didn't sound like an "elitist," and I wasn't implying you did. My issue is with all the various forums we have already making it difficult to assist others and get assistance. This latest Thwack upgrade is taking away from the very thing that makes it so important...the ability to EASILY collaborate with experts. While…

  • I used to think this was my favorite quote for such a thing, but you topped it! (2004 Movie: National Treasure) Ben Gates: A toast? Yeah. To high treason. That's what these men were committing when they signed the Declaration. Had we lost the war, they would have been hanged, beheaded, drawn and quartered, and-Oh! Oh, my…
    in Passing ${CREDENTIAL} in a PowerShell without using -Credential Comment by deverts January 2018
  • Ok, seeing the show ver brings a little more clarity to the table. You aren't running a Cisco 3560G, you are running a Compact 3560C, much newer model. I have a few of those in my environment as well, and the script I provided works on that model. So, when you say "login local" isn't supported on that switch, what are you…

  • Manage Nodes --> Select your device(s) --> on the top under "More Actions" choose "Update Topology" But again, make sure the interfaces on both sides of the connection are being monitored. D

  • in Basic HTML and CSS in Alerts Comment by deverts February 2020
  • ecklerwr1‌, I'm running "Orion Platform 2014.2.1, SAM 6.1.1, QoE 1.0, IPAM 4.2, NCM 7.3.2, NPM 11.0.1, NTA 4.1.0, IVIM 1.10.0, VNQM 4.2" and it's been pretty solid for me. I'd feel confident in saying these versions are stable (at least in my environment). However, based on everything I see here, I'm holding off on NPM…
    in 11.5.1 on the way? Just not brave enough to that 11.5.0.. Comment by deverts March 2015
  • Joshua Biggley (Not really the place for this comment, but no other place or time is better) I would disagree with your comment on a "separate forum" from one perspective I find invaluable. The rest of us should be using your environment (and Richard's) and feedback as a model for ours. While my environment is not nearly…
    in Upgraded to new release of NPM 11.5.1 last night Comment by deverts June 2015
  • I went looking for a doc for QoS tagging only on the PowerConnect, but it looks like you need to actually setup QoS (see link below). Typically, I (others may do things differently) don't really configure full QoS on the LAN, I only tag traffic. This is because most LANs these days are 1Gb to the desk with port-channeled…
