Cisco Unveils Nexus 7000 Series

Support for up to 256 10 Gigabit Ethernet or 384 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports in a single 10-slot chassis

• A fully modular and fully redundant 10-slot chassis with front-to-back airflow and integrated cable management

• Dual dedicated supervisor modules, providing exceptional high-availability features with no service interruptions even during hardware and software upgrades

• Highly scalable fabric architecture supporting up to five fabric modules for load-balanced, fault-tolerant operation and designed to deliver 230 Gbps per slot of bandwidth at release, with future support for more than 500 Gbps per slot

• Virtual output queuing and Fabric Arbitration, deliver quality of service (QoS) and fairness across all ports, even during congestion, and provide the basis for future unified I/O

• Integrated security hardware support for Cisco TrustSec, providing data confidentiality while simplifying and scaling access control

• Fully distributed forwarding engines, providing scalable packet processing and forwarding

• Three load-sharing power supply modules, allowing either 110V or 220V AC inputs. With 220V AC inputs these power supplies will deliver fault tolerance for a fully loaded chassis with worst-case N+1 and grid redundancy

IOS on Unix (IOU)

source http://evilrouters.net/2011/01/18/cisco-iou-faq/ What is IOU? From the Cisco Engineering Education web site (a long time ago): IOS on Unix (IOU) is a fully working version of IOS that runs as a user mode UNIX (Solaris) process. IOU is built as a native Solaris image and run just like any other program. IOU supports all platform independent protocols and features. What operating systems does IOU run on? It is my understanding that, initially, IOU was Solaris (SPARC) only. Nowadays, however, there are also builds for OS X and Linux. Similar to dynamips, IOU allows you to build out a network topology on a computer, without the need for physical routers. This is useful for validating designs, proof-of-concept testing, and certification self-study. Is my system compatible with IOU? You will need to be running the operating system that your IOU image were built for, obviously. Other than that, there are no special requirements to run IOU. It is not very CPU- or memory-intensive, unlik...

Impressed with Poly brand for conference headphones

I previously used my Sony XM4 headphones for calls and initially found them versatile for multiple purposes. However, as my meetings extended to several hours, I noticed they became less comfortable. To address this, I upgraded to wireless headphones from Poly, which offer significantly improved comfort. While I don’t plan to use them for music listening, my initial impression is very positive.

Flapping LDP/RSVP on Olive

I had a strange problem where the LDP and RSVP was flapping on JunOS/Olive and I think I managed to fix it by changing the driver from e1000 to i82559er and lo0.0 with 127.0.0.1.  I don't want to spend more time investigating it but if someone have similar problem at least this comment could be a good start. root@jr2>  *** MPLS *** May 21 14:27:21.472443 Session 4.4.4.4 hold timer expired in Operational state May 21 14:27:21.473451 Connection 4.4.4.4 state Open -> Closed May 21 14:27:21.473838 Session 4.4.4.4 GR state Operational -> Nonexistent May 21 14:27:21.473923 Session 4.4.4.4 state Operational -> Closing May 21 14:27:21.474054 LDP session 4.4.4.4 is down, reason: hold time expired May 21 14:27:21.474364 RPD_LDP_SESSIONDOWN: LDP session 4.4.4.4 is down, reason: hold time expired May 21 14:27:21.475567 Session 4.4.4.4 state Closing -> Nonexistent May 21 14:27:21.476180 CHANGE   317024 /52          nhid ...
