Amazon Delivery, Not a Fully Implemented Process
Those of us who work in technology see the need to take expensive, time consuming and/or mundane activities and convert them to streamlined automated processes. Ideally we improve these to the point that they improve accuracy, provide a better experience and can [mostly] be forgotten about. However, not every process fits all of the intended use cases. Maybe a more accurate statement might be that every process isn’t developed to fit every use case. For those of us who are outliers and find ourselves in those process deficiencies, these incomplete processes can create a lot of frustration.
A Little Background
I’ve been an Amazon Prime user for some period of time. I have also been free of a home mailbox for about 18 months and only used a PO Box to receive general mail. As a Prime customer, I regularly place orders with Amazon. Anyone else that has had the experience I’m about to share can probably finish my story.
The Problem
The problem with this scenario is that each order can only have one delivery address. When the order is placed, there is no way to select the delivery mechanism. So if I list my physical home address, I have Continue reading

Comparison: Cisco Catalyst 9500 Vs Cisco Catalyst 4500 Vs Cisco 3850 Switches
Today I am going to talk about the fixed core chassis Cisco catalyst 9500 which Cisco released a month back. Cisco 9500 is actually enhanced version of Cisco catalyst 4500 chassis and also Cisco 3850 Switch. There are lot of other best features in Cisco 9500 Chassis as some of the features are just amazing in this device.
So we have Cisco 3850, Cisco 4500 Catalyst Switches, Cisco 6500 Catalyst switches, Cisco 6800 Catalyst switches and now Cisco 9000 catalyst switches with 3 flavours ( Cisco 9300 catalyst switches, Cisco 9400 catalyst switches and Cisco 9500 Catalyst switches)
How topology and the demand changes, below is the example topology showing the changes which leads to the next generation fabric network with cloud ready solutions and automation. CLI is gone for the campus fabric, All policy is driven with the SDN controller.
If we have Cisco 4500 and Cisco 3850 fixed chassis why we required Cisco 9500 chassis ?
I knew this is one of the question which you actually thinking and for this i would like to say that you need to understand the next generation campus requirements where customer wants to be Continue reading

Hit Pause: Take a Moment to Reflect on the Repercussions of the Recent Ransomware Attacks
As these devastating global ransomware attacks illustrate, cybersecurity is not an issue that can be ignored. Any time a device or system is connected to the Internet, it is a potential target. What was once just another lucrative means of extorting money from Internet users, ransomware is emerging as a preferred tool for causing widespread disruption of vital services such as hospitals, banks, shipping, or airports. Attacks are growing more sophisticated and more enduring, with longer term damaging effects and wider impact. Ransomware exploits the slow pace of security patching, systems that are dependent on old software, and poor backup practices.

Worth Reading: Hijacking Bitcoin
It turns out that if you can hijack less than a hundred BGP prefixes (feasible) you can isolate about 50% of the mining power in the network. Once a collection of nodes are partitioned from the network the network becomes more vulnerable to double spending attacks, transaction filtering, and selfish mining attacks. —Morning Paper
