Internets of Interest: 18th October Through 21st October

October 21, 2008 by bookmarks · Leave a Comment 

Collection of use­ful, rel­ev­ant or inane places on the the Internets for 18th October through 21st October:

  • CCIE>Blog_ /​ Find a Blog — IPExpert release their blog­ging “plat­form” for all of us to use.
  • Security Configuration Guides — The American National Security Agency pub­lishes some handy (if a bit simple) guides for secur­ing a num­ber of dif­fer­ent things. Now while you could do a bet­ter job as a spe­cial­ist task, these are very sue­ful start­ing points for a secur­ity review, espe­cially is you are not strong on, say, MAC OS X.A fel­low net­work blog­ger reminded me about this by post­ing, but I lost the source. Sorry.
  • Apple — Get a Mac — Watch the TV Ads — Bean Counter — The latest Mac Advertisement — abso­lutely hil­ari­ous — makes a point that spend­ing $300 mil­lion in advert­ising is NOT fix­ing your product.I won­der if they could use this in Management train­ing, show them that mar­ket­ing doesn’t always work.
  • Zone-​​Based Policy Firewall Design and Application Guide — Cisco Systems — Internetwork Expert pos­ted on Cisco IOS Zone Based Firewall recently. This is the Cisco Design Guide on many dif­fer­ent meth­ods and ways of using it.One note of interest  — the CLI is almost identical to the ACE module.
  • iSCSI dodges Fibre Channel over Ethernet noose • The Register — This guy thinks that iSCSI is for green­field sites not for real networks.Favourite bit: ” he said, adding that he isn’t wor­ried if FCoE only appeals to exist­ing Fibre Channel cus­tom­ers. ” — gosh, is he say­ing the FCoE is a leg­acy tech­no­logy even before its come to mar­ket ? I think he is.
  • FCoE not just for sale, Cisco Nexus FCoE also in pro­duc­tion —  Data Center Networks — No really, someone is actu­ally using FCoE ! And it’s us. Wow, brilliant.What no cus­tom­ers ? Oh, FCoE how we love thee.
