Episode 5 – All You Ever Wanted To Know About EIGRP

In episode 5 the Network Collective panel dives deep into the inner-workings of EIGRP and how to tune the protocol to work best for you. This isn’t your run of the mill EIGRP training session though, so buckle up and dig in to learn a lot about a protocol which appears pretty straight forward on the surface.

On another note… If you like the technical and community aspects of Network Collective, we wanted to tell you about a podcast that our friends over at Gestalt IT have just started up that you’ll probably enjoy as well.  The name of their podcast is the On-Premise IT Roundtable and in addition to networking they will be covering topics like system architecture, storage, big data, virtualization, hyper-converged, and a slew of other topics.  You should check them out.

Episode 3 – The Unique Challenges of Working in SMB

In this episode of Network Collective we dive in to the challenges of working as a technologist in a small or medium sized business (SMB).  We look at things like staffing, budgets, and small business mindsets that make working in this space very different than working in mid-market or enterprise organizations.  Matt Haedo, John Duprey, and Kevin Blackburn join the Network Collective hosts in talking about this common, but often under the radar topic.

Episode 2 – Choosing A Routing Protocol

In episode 2 our panel discusses some key differences between routing protocols and the details that should be considered before choosing to implement one over another.  Is there any difference between IGP routing protocols at this point?  When does it make sense to run BGP in an enterprise network?  Is IS-IS an old and decaying protocol, or something you should viably consider?  Russ White, Kevin Myers, and the co-hosts of Network Collective tackle these questions and more.
