this is comical.

I think it really depends on your application. The C6100's are great, for cheap cloud servers. They have NO convenience, limitd in expansion, limited in RAM, no SATA/SAS 6gbps, sharp edges and not user friendly for entry level techs. The R710's are great chassis as well. They are easy to work...

Yeah, got it earlier today - quite bummed as I use the heck out of mine!

Not quite that simple. You'll only be awarded an ASN if you are multihomed, and can show contracts with multiple transit providers, or if you require special routing policies, and provide documentation showing said special policy. Off the top of my head: Also /24 is the smallest assignment with...

Puppet & chef.

Specify your requirement and definition of "repetitive system admin stuffs". what are you trying to accomplish, what tasks are you trying to automate?

You should consider consulting with someone and design/engineer your solution for you, since you can't seem to do the research yourself. I wonder how you will setup, or maintain this solution if you manage to get to the next step. Just saying.

Zach, Thank you for the suggestion, I do run some UBNT gear here, and generally like it. That said, I had not personally thought of using their gear in this scenario. I've had a closer look, and it seems that the temp sensor is only temp, not humidity - do you know different? Humidity is very...

I'm looking for some recommendations for environmental monitoring solutions for the server room. The location i'm looking to put this is has a smaller server room, only a couple of racks and 2x Liebert Datamate CRACs that have external contact switches for when they alarm, however no built in...

If you really require 40 IPv4 addresses maybe you should write up exactly what you need them for, and discuss this with your proposed provider. If they are not willing to work with you regarding this, you should probably look else where. You cannot just pickup a small range and use it anywhere...

I've personally had great luck with the hitachi line of drives; wether Deskstar or Ultrastar.

I use Zabbix pretty heavily across our infrastructure; at one point 4 sites, nearly 500 "hosts" and 1000's of items. It's open source, and they do offer commercial support and training. Active community for help, forum and IRC channel. Homepage of Zabbix :: An Enterprise-Class Open Source...

I think you should look at the spec sheets, and consider your requirements. There are some things we can't do for you...

I would use a switch, and either run your vyatta as a virtual machine, a physical machine, or one of their appliances ...

I've used IPv6 through HE tunnels, and played around some, but there just aren't enough websites and services IPv6 enabled. I did just get accepted into the Comcast IPv6 trial, should be interesting. There is very little IPv6 movement and adoption in the VoIP world from what I can tell...

Yes, I use it in many installations, small office, data center, core routers, home offices. It's very flexible, there is a community versions, and a supported commercial version. Vyatta was purchases by Brocade last year. Commercial: http://www.vyatta.com Community: http://www.vyatta.org In...

I deployed a 3 pack of UAP-LR's at our office about a month back, to replace some Cisco Small Business WiFi APs that needed weekly reboots. Been solid since. Originally deployed the controller on Windows, now that 2.4.4 is released, took the chance to deploy on Ubuntu, and with a signed SSL...

Have we had fun this week! Received 2 chassis on Monday, both chassis had the #1 & 2 sleds release tab bent or broken off! Replacements came in yesterday. Updated BIOS and BMC, one after another "bricked" on the BMC updates, after several hours i gave up and restored a backup rom.

You could run a Vyatta router and use that to create your private network, VPN, NAT, port forwarding etc

How many more sticks do you have?
