I got several interesting replies to my automation and orchestration blog post. Some of them were so far in the land of alternate definitions that they were literally off the charts. Here’s one of the best I got in that category:
Read more ...A few days ago I wrote an article demonstrating the Packet Tracer feature for troubleshooting Firepower Threat Defense. Another very cool tool for troubleshooting is the Capture w/Trace Feature. The power of this tool comes from both capturing a PCAP file (for Wireshark or your tool of choice) and a separate window pane that has a view of the device operation (very similar to the Packet Tracer output).
Similar to Packet Tracer, to initiate Capture w/Trace in the Firepower Management Console, choose ‘Devices‘ then ‘Device Management‘. Next, select the device that you want to perform the operation and select the icon that looks like a screwdriver and wrench.
This will produce the screen that provides health monitoring and troubleshooting for the device. Selecting “Advanced Troubleshooting” will change the view to a multi-tab troubleshooting screen.
Select the Capture w/Trace tab. The Add Capture button will allow for selection of filter criteria for the capture.
After filling out this information and choosing “Save“, an entry will be created for Continue reading

I have used the example of increasing paths to the point where the control plane converges more slowly, impacting convergence, hence increasing the Mean Time to Repair, to show that too much redundancy can actually reduce overall network availability. Many engineers I’ve talked to balk at this idea, because it seems hard to believe that adding another link could, in fact, impact routing protocol convergence in such a way. I ran across a paper a while back that provides a different kind of example about the trade-off around redundancy in a network, but I never got around to actually reading the entire paper and trying to figure out how it fits in.
In Gray Failure: The Achilles’ Heel of Cloud-Scale Systems, the authors argue that one of the main problems with building a cloud system is with grey failures—when a router fails only some of the time, or drops (or delays) only some small percentage of the traffic. The example given is—
