Jims' Network Diary – musings of a network admin

Mine started with an absolute network sh*tstorm at 7:00. After a bit of investigation, found that it was an outage at the ISP, so failed over to the redundant connection by 9:00.. “only” issue was email – the Exchange CAS server is on the other end of the Layer 2 link from the office, and due to a legacy flat subnet at both locations, haven’t implemented redundant links to the datacentre yet.. it’s next on the list!
