Network Design – Where Should I Start?
After listening to a recent Packet Pushers podcast, the question was raised about network design and where the network design should start. When I first started designing IT, I believed the correct starting point was to define the required outcome through the deployment of technology. For example, the requirement from the customer could be to […]

Break Those Chains
So because I’m new to this whole blogging at Packet Pushers thing (and blogging in general), I’ve been trying to decide on my place in the grand scheme of things. There are a lot of folks here that do a great job of deep-dives, vendor happenings, and general overviews. I could do those, but what’s the point of rehashing what this site and 100s of others (Google FTW) do?

Not just showing up every so often in the browser side panel, but some embedded deep within the pages I’m viewing, making them very difficult to ignore. Often the ads are for something I’ve already bought or something I’ve decided not […]

Learning QoS from RFCs
One of the things I insist on is learning the theory or concepts behind the technologies, rather than just learning how to configure the technology. This is often more difficult than it seems, though, because it’s hard to find (and often read) the documents that describe the technology — they’re often written in a language […]
