Hello everyone.I've been looking into using Ansible with a collection of Cisco devices and so far, I've confirmed that I can connect to some devices using RSA key pairs - I followed this guide (SSH Public Key Authentication on Cisco IOS (networklesso...

So I've got 3 1941 routers at WAN edge. Two at HQ serving the WAN (HSRP between them, don't ask me why) and I'm using PBR along with SLAs and tracks to put specific traffic on one link and some other traffic on another link.Works pretty well, though ...

Hello all. I'm doing a BGP lab and I'm a bit curious about the best path selection I see on one of the routers. Basically, I'm used to the best path algorithm being Next-hop reachable? - Weight - Local preference - Locally injected? - AS path length ...

Hello all. I'm trying to think of established ways to test basic functions of a router or switch prior to deployment. This is to ensure that the hardware will work as expected. Are there any methods to stress test or verify performance?

Hello all. I've been using mostly Traditional Netflow with a test config of Flexible Netflow in my environment. I had made the mistake outlined in this article https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Theory-of-Duplicate-Flows and so wa...

Ah, I see. These are 1941 routers, are they limited in some way to prevent the constant throughput we're experiencing? They're meant to be replaced with ISR4331 routers, how can I tell if those will be sufficient?

Thank you for your reply.I believe the polling interval for SNMP is still at its default so that's about 4 minutes?These routers do see a lot of traffic. One side links the HQ to the WAN while the other links a DR site to the same WAN so there's usua...

It seems this still happens even with EEE disabled. I haven't looked back at it in all this time because the SBS switches are really the bane of our collective L2 existence. I'm just looking at the switch ports randomly deciding to drop power.Example...
