I hope they hit their targets with this plan. It sounds like a great improvement.

Hooray!! New mission

I thought that one was pretty straight forward. Day 16 had me nervous.

Thanks for all you do @"kpina" !!

I just realised I looked and pasted in the wrong question. Here's question 18 and only 1 correct answer. If you search on the hint link for 'new management', you will see only 1 correct answer pop up. Yes another one of the answers was in the text but it's not what it was looking for. So no I didn't have prior experience,…

We have a change process here that includes everything you've mentioned. Simple changes are approved by the manager (but they may not necessarily look closely at what the plan is). But major changes required presentation to a change committee. But those on the change committee may not understand what you are changing…

Yeah but the other number is not an option. Easiest is to scroll down to the bottom of the page and look through the transcript

I feel old now. I started with Dos 3.2, then onto Novel 2.2 & 3.11 (became a CNE). Next was Windows for Workgroups before NT3.51 etc took over the world. Windows 95 was a real treat

I attended Cisco Live recently in Melbourne. We had a free ticket so I got to go and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Scooby dooby dooooo!

Great to see a Beatles referenced question. I love the Beatles. This mission is great, I love my music. My iPod classic is my favourite device.

Guess I'm out already

Woohoo all green this month

No matter which question I click on I get "This survey is not accepting additional responses at this time. Thank You!" Are there issues?

Thanks mate! I found it now. But oddly when I check in my profile it say I have 170858 points but on the homepage it show me as having 177480 points. I hope the homepage one is the correct one 

Hooray! Bose bluetooth speaker is exactly what I need Love your work Solarwinds!

Thanks for this! It was fun

We still allow USB drives. I don't believe we've had any issues to date. All pc's are patched and have anti virus software on them. Not sure if that's enough but so far it seems to work. I'm not sure what the security team are planning.

We have the same thing happening here but the tunnels go up and down on regular intervals. And whilst they are showing as down, they are in fact still collecting stats. The other option is to show them as 'unplugged' instead. I will try ecklerwr1​'s suggestion of polling via snmp and see how that goes.

I don't do visio diagrams, I do all my diagrams in Solarwinds. They are live and it's easy to see if any go out of date. As I'm also alerted of network changes, I can adjust the diagrams accordingly. We do have architects that document everything in visio but sometimes these are so high level, it's hard to work out what's…

Wow I won a prize!!!! After many years of trying in these monthly comps, I won a prize. Sweeeeeet! The prize is something I've actually been looking for. Something to improve the wifi in my house and something to control the kid's wifi. Both boxes ticked with 1 prize. Solarwinds, you guys rock!!

I have to pay more attention

Just tell her that you'll turn it up to 11 for her.

It supplies warmth to the office

I think it was nice having some questions where there is the potential to get it wrong. Usually you can just do a control F and find the answer. Having to read the article makes it more worth while. I wanted to help with the question but due to different timezones I could not do so. But either way, I think this is the best…

Yes as long as it creates a syslog message that the config has been updated, RTCD should be able to be used to backup the config. I use this for all my devices.

Week 2 done as well.

We introduced shared services a few years back. This allowed them to reduce staff numbers. Some impact was of cause noticed but most went pretty smoothly. I personally liked the changes.

We have the same here. If we don't know about it, it won't be supported. But there's always exceptions to the rule.

I think they are not stealing your Jeep as they don't want it??
