I'll just go with.... The Cerebrum

now that is just disturbing

with a small team, individuals have personal preferences for the initial steps taken or their own goto places they are comfortable with to start the trail at. Some folk see the alert and dive straight into looking at device console screens, while others just use Solarwinds and only at the end look at the device.

the biggest problem most documentation efforts have is that they concentrate on the document - not the process used to create it. It's like security, documentation isn't something you tack onto the end - for it to be useful it must be part of the process to deliver the system or service you are providing. When it is an…

wow - does that mean Steve Balmer is responsible for something good? On microsoft licensing, does that mean that all the customer wallet mining of the old microsoft wasn't entirely Balmer's fault - and this is just the old dog returning to its type?

having lots of data is great if you don't know the question you want to answer, but the cost is how to hang on to data for which you have no idea what the retention should be or when it might be useful. It almost feels like having a garage crammed with stuff "just in case I need it, sometime in the future" To put this into…

indeed - we do this with our Palo Alto firewall using LDAP to connect to IP to username. That lets us provide user specific firewall rules. Of course that highlights another SAM/NPM feature request - getting PA support

rschroeder I love that collection and will have to steal some of those

I was looking at twitter but didn't see it. Got it on linkedin though
-
the other thing is that if its not in the cloud we only have to defend on area rather than being reliant on the security of all of those different cloud vendors. I still don't see the attraction - but upper management seem to love the bean counter mentality

Just in case anyone was interested . . . .

I seem to remember a ThwackCamp session on just that subject https://thwack.solarwinds.com/community/thwackcamp-2016#/session_1008

it does indeed feel like product or policy, often one without the other......

darn, made a stupid mistake on one of them while trying to catch up - oh well, no soup for me

most of our support/alerts are for our servers. But we also support our desktop support guys and use the same service desk product. We are getting closer to remote support outside the firewall with our current desktop management product as well. Biggest thing we need to help our admins is decent remote access to Orion…

darn it - made some stupid mistakes there. Pretty sure I was right with 5D, but I know where I went wrong with the others. Will do better next time

I recognize the midlife crisis thing, been doing this for an exceedingly long time, but never felt the need to jump about. Stick to and work to effect change. That's why I worked to get my ITIL Expert cert. It's not a "technical" cert, but waaay more useful because I recognize that the root of most poor or immature…

Given that the first wave of IoT devices were the most insecure devices of all time I see the default posture being to deny access to them. The other default posture is that absolutely none of them will get access to the internet at all, let alone have users connecting to them.

With the current mission covering ASA, feels like now is a good time for a quick BUMP!!

Was this a brilliant precognition of the events of the weekend for some staggering coincidence - I'm not sure of the timeline

re-reading this again reminded me of the Garvin days fond memories

don't try opening the link in a separate tab (ctrl-click etc), it does that on its own.

Dang it - that's what I get for being off work on Friday
-
what a way to round out 2017 finish the challenge all green and do a brilliant UX session on the same day - perfect

#bumpsquad Long term requests need love too

that Scooby-Doo video segment was brilliant, although Leon as Vela was moderately disturbing The genetic manipulation thing is scary. If Stephen Hawking's parents editing his genome would he have been supergenius. If Elon Musk's parent had edited him, would he have been quite so driven Good intentions very rarely consider…

Indeed - this community is the cocoon that wraps products up in a cozy bundle

I am wary of relying on auto assigned baselines If really depends what you are looking for - do you want an alert when a value drift out slightly, or only when it would impact performance in some way.

all of our old gear is sent for resale/recycle. Most of it is five years old, sometimes more. Usually without drives though, they get shredded.
