Never had SIMS from the LEA in 14 years + Was Grant Maintained, then Foundation now Academy.. Rob -
After getting the password, I got onto the CLI, nothing much seemed to make much logical sense as I worked my way hopping from switch to switch. So I fired up Cisco Network Assistant ( I hardly ever use it ) and mapped out the horror! There is some redundancy, but it's not consistent and in some areas not redundant at all. Rob

Can't access my virtual server

ESXi 1) installs in minutes on bare metal easily without the need for another layer to go through. 2) It wil do everything you need properly. 3) It's completly free ( you don't need a 2k8 Licence to run it ). 4) it has advanced features such as snapshots, memory balooning, virtual switching, kernel ports for ISCSI, etc....

Usually you have a stack master , it will tie the others in as a logical unit so you can configure it as one device. the speed is dependant on the brand/model but often is at the full backplane speed of the individual switches so much much higher than 1Gb ports. Good ones you can link the top of the stack to the bottom so that any failure in a member or a cable will not take out more of the stack. Last set I had was 6 years ago though Rob

Don't confuse Stacking Switches with Daisy Chaining of switches. A True Stack uses a stack interconnect that offers management of the entire stack and should offer backplane speeds across the entire stack. Daisy chaining require individual management and only port speed between switches. I discovered that our supplier had put 8 layer deep daisy chaining with no redundancy on our sister site ( that was within 3 hrs of finally getting the password out of them ) they argued it was acceptable until I sent them a diagram out of Cisco Network assistant highlighting the bottlenecks and multiple points of failure. We run (in reducing quantity), Core -> Distro -> Edge -> User Core - > Edge -> User Core -> user Rob

There is an inconsistency in DNS somwhere I think. Seen two different IP's returned for your mail server MX. Rob -

who is edline.net? an what do they do for you? Rob -
I would suspect you would install the Backup Exec Linux or Apple Agent on the Apple Server and then select that to be backed up. You can't backup network shares with BE. Rob

I have had cars with 150k that use no oil at all. My present one has 130K and not using anything significant. the Nissan engine is a modern one so should eb good for 200K+ if looked after. Rob

We have 1 server room and 3 distribution rooms on both our sites with redundant links as mentioned. and each distro room has redundant links to edge switches. Rob
-
Yes, easily on any decent SAN as the disks can be broken down into logical disks. Rob
-
If there is no sign of oil on the road then you have a serious consumption problem. 1L in 1000 Miles would be normal on a high performance turbo charged car, 1L should last 5-6K in any other car so 4L in 600Miles is 40 times more than it should be! Rob

Diagnostic Software... All sorts of options on ebay, including Bluetooth OBD2 for use with "Torque and others" on android. Official tools are always best.. Vauxhall - Tech2 jaguar - IDS/SDD landrover - IDS/SDD Ford - IDS/SDD VW - VAG-COM Etc.... And Generic OBD2 leads... I am getting a collection as one tool does not fit all.

Yes , No Rob -
You want to keep the active equipment away from the user environment. You want it someher with Cooling You will also find that you may have 30 outlets whcih means 2x24port switches ( a waste of 18 ports ). You can balance ports across more than one switch centraly so a whole room is not affected by an outage. Switches add noise. Repatching in a classroom can be anoying for yourself and the users. Expensive extra ... cabinets, termination, power. It's unsightly. Rob

You have to seriously consider H&S of your staff, allowing them to use an unsuitable device all day could lead to injury and despite their wish to use their laptop there is still a responsibility as the employer to ensure the H&S of that staff member. If you provide the correct facility and they choose not to use it then that is a different matter. Rob
