server core was really meant for running a hyper-v host and that's about it, the idea being that you'd have a bunch of headless hyper-v host with no need to RDP into them running server core, and then you would buy and use system center

Asymmetric POSTer posted:juniper rules and cisco drools juniper has much better price/perf and price/features ratios. cisco however has the old adage "nobody was ever fired for buying a cisco" and that’s why 90% of my employer’s enterprise networking business is still cisco juniper utterly wipes the floor with them in education and service provider though on account of the equivalent cisco boxes being four or five times the price and questionably functional. the 6800s were a mistake on the same scale as my posting

they put all their eggs in "fabric" without actually putting any effort into it, basically. all sorts of virtual switching features that often didn't work right, and a design built around the idea that you would connect and provision dozens of "instant access" switches attached to it that were actually just 2960Xes with a different IOS image on them that couldn't officially be used as standalone switches until the platform finally went so badly to poo poo that they released an official guide to converting them from 6800IAs to 2960Xes. catalyst 6800s may be one of the shortest lived cisco product lines. you can still buy them but the 9400 and 9600 lines basically replaced them outright in like three years flat

abigserve posted:At the time cisco also wanted to push the nexus line as the "do everything" box, except it was notably missing a ton of features and had one of the most poorly implemented high availability models ever I still have nightmares sometimes about being the only cisco guy on my team available for a support call we got out of the blue where a network fell apart and just was being completely loving non-deterministic because hooking up a bunch of nexus 5Ks and 9Ks in a certain way caused ARP packets to just occasionally disappear if they had to cross virtual switching trunks

https://www.ciscolive.com/c/dam/r/ciscolive/emea/docs/2015/pdf/BRKCRS-3502.pdf good slide deck on the intended architecture of the 6800 family and what they were hoping for people to want to implement it as. they didn't build it to just be a 6500 replacement, so it suffered when used as such. if anything you were supposed to up-convert your 6500E chassis to 6800s by buying 6800 line cards and replacing your SUP720s with SUP2Ts so you could have all the new 6800 fabric features without needing to unrack your core switch and rack a new one. they 100% designed it expecting people to want to have their access switches be fabric extenders controlled by the core switch halfway across town connected via a DWDM link. abigserve is right, the 6800 by all rights would have ruined any other network company

the perfect mid-range of seniority, nice. that's my goal in life (that and many more figgies) speaking of networking/infra, just got fiber to the home installed. gigabit symmetrical, speeds in practice are actually hitting it too. hell of an upgrade from my previous 600/30 cable connection.

I just have OLT -> GPON -> ONT -> 1000BASE-T -> 2960S -> firewall which is still a few more steps than I'd like but my switch is about 30 feet from the fibre handoff and there's nowhere near enough slack to run it through the walls etc.

existing network appliances piss me off so much I'm writing a routing/firewall OS currently working on L3/L4 filtering, then after that, a higher performance forwarding table. current one is fast enough with just a handful of routes in it but I suspect with thousands of routes it'd be a bit too sluggish so I'll need to implement something like a 256-way trie

cumulus is neat but they should open source their switch ASIC drivers. insanely fuckin dumb that you can buy "white box" switches that only work with two OSes (cumulus and Dell FTOS) open network install environment: a busybox ramdisk in an EFI system partition so you can have the freedom to choose which closed source network OS you wish to use

modern wifi has the throughput but latency and especially jitter still sucks, especially over distance and I know from painful first-hand knowledge that unifi APs will happily start doing weird mesh poo poo if they lose an uplink. probably better than losing your connection entirely but it makes isolating the fault a pain in the rear end
