Thanks for a great article, I'm just in the process of setting this up now, got to figure out how to simulate multihomed ip transit. HMMMM

Thanks for the new mission wabbott​

Computer stuff on the whole. Something to with servers, comes up quite often.

Yes holding off on answering today's feels like a multiple choice question. How's the thwack access in Australia wabbott​

Congrats glodynto1​

We have invested recently in end user training, awareness is key for us.

Thanks wabbott​

Uptime vs Security. Is long uptime not a huge warning sign in a non air-gapped environment.

Lol reminds me of this: http://siliconvalleyjobtitlegenerator.tumblr.com/

Having run the network for an ISP you soon find 'the internet' when specifically looking at External BGP and transit, is really run like an old boys club, every one knows everyone else, and provided you can talk the talk you can be a part too. But yes without some major upheaval we are one BGP announcement away from chaos.…

Yep, that's broken

The Equifax issue still troubles me. Especially in light of the earlier breach that preceded the share sell off by executives. One part that's very interesting is that the general populous were not informed because we are not their customers despite them holding records about nearly every one of us.

Was lucky to have seen a sneak peek at this before announcement. It's gonna be great.

mmmm Bacon

We are moments away from purchasing NCM, hopefully we can cross the line in time to sign up.

Brilliant jerks: Good article, I've discussed this a lot with my teams in the past. Apple bug: Apple becomes the new Microsoft, one problem after another with this bug.

It's great how many complexities and expense we can add to fundamentally; eat less, exercise more Just like software development

Really, really good article, XKCD popped in to my head too.

We use Nagios, Scruitinzer and Spiceworks. We also use Atalassian Jira for ticketing/change management.

Oops

Sigh another thing I didn't know about before my first visit to Seattle.

Looking forward to catching the sessions I didn't see live, I guess that's another two full days of thwack camp to get excited about.

Well done tinambolton​

HA status is available over SNMP as well as via the API. For SNMP you are best off using the universal poller, but for API it's here: GET https://<IP>/api/v2/monitor/system/ha-peer That only gives the HA members. Sync state can be shown by the checksums: GET https://{{ip}}/api/v2/monitor/system/ha-checksums

I guess you have either SAM or HCO?

I'd suggest this goes in a feature request instead. Agree it is outdated now.

Can you expand more on what you mean? Do you mean the vendor field?

It's not supported as far as I remember, but there's a long standing feature request here: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/products/network-performance-monitor-npm/i/feature-requests/juniper-virtual-chassis-monitoring?CommentId=49c3c301-8288-4ddf-b0cc-1fd78c40443e

How are you currently monitoring the Big IP do you have NPM? are you using Net insight for F5?

That was a release to harden the application however, it looks like its EOL end of 2024. documentation.solarwinds.com/.../ipmonitor_11-2_release_notes.htm
