The job she is vacating happens to be the position I've applied to and she's going to drop my name to HR, so here's hoping. I've got a freelance project for a local business to do a massive infrastructure overhaul and they're paying me very well for the work.

So I work at a school in a larger campus, independent of our central IT which obviously manages the infrastructure among other things. My boss apparently left word that I was to hook up an ASUS Wifi router, which, as there's no way he told our networking people about it, would effectively be a rogue AP that would easily be traced back to me, as I'd have to whitelist the MAC address to hook it up. I am not going to do this thing. I'm going to go home instead.

Just got in to the network of a sister company that is being decommissioned, we're gutting the infrastructure, bringing it to our site, and only keeping the core services online for future access. Their EMC navisphere web interface has no password, wide open on the network. One domain controller. One. Doing windows server backup to an iscsi volume. One VM server with an essentials license. The dhcp scope is 10.0.2.0-10.0.254.0, with a one hour lease time. That's just the tip of the iceberg, this is gonna be fun ripping this horrible poo poo apart.

devmd01 posted:The dhcp scope is 10.0.2.0-10.0.254.0, with a one hour lease time. That's a ridiculously big broadcast domain, right? I'm one of those "working on my CCNA" types and I'm just wondering if my initial reaction was right. That's aside from the weirdly short lease time. ...which would further exacerbate any issues caused by the broadcast domain, since the machines would be broadcasting for DHCP more often, right?

Japanese Dating Sim posted:So I work at a school in a larger campus, independent of our central IT which obviously manages the infrastructure among other things. So my boss got super weird when I showed him a policy today that explicitly says that no one is allowed to plug in consumer-grade access points to extend access to our network. He was concerned that I take things "too seriously" and referenced a time a few weeks ago when I said that we should not actually be "testing" a cell phone jamming device (which they were). I tried to explain how it's generally a good idea to stay on your infrastructure group's good side and that, while I wouldn't get fired over it, I could very easily have my rights to our InfoBlox (necessary to whitelist devices so that they can receive DHCP addresses) revoked. Aside from the InfoBlox thing he said that I shouldn't be concerned with what they think of me "unless I'm thinking of working there eventually."

nexxai posted:Cell phone jammers are not only a bad idea, they're illegal. If your company is doing stuff like this regularly, you should really be starting to ensure that you have all of your objections on the record (e.g. in email, etc.) to protect yourself. I'm sure they have an exception from the FCC, they're probably developing equipment that they sell to the FCC to detect violations.

A guy here is applying at another station as an assistant broadcast engineer. The CE there wants to talk to our CE, and apparently everyone has cooked up a plan to have that call forwarded to me to pretend I'm the CE, since the real one is a fuckwad. No one told me this until he called. That was a fun conversation.
