Currently I've got around 20 vlans, each containing several printers. As our technicians are messing with them quite often, especially replacing one with another quickly in case of a failure, they tend to forget IP addresses of them printers and they...
I've got a problem with dynamic vlans. Trying to figure out configuration for the topology similar to the one in the picture.I’ve got four vlans for PCs, one vlan per department. I have to add fifth vlan (50) for devices that can be connected to any ...
Hi,I've got some switch cabinets which are quite packed with patch panels and switches and those long patch leads make it hard to manage and troubleshoot or even close the door of them cabinets. I was thinking about making short leads myself. For exa...
Hi,Just learning AAA and I'm struggling with one thing. I've got a RADIUS server set up and switches/routers authenticate to it. Everything's working fine.As a safety measure I've got a local account set up as well, just in case both RADIUS servers a...
Yeah got 28 vlans, most of which got several printers. Tracing right now is a nightmare and I can see that pros owerweight cons of that solution. Thank you.
Thanks. Server and printers have got static IPs of course. My only concern is potential increase in traffic to the router. That's why I asked for best pracitces, to see advantages and disadvantages of having all printers on separate subnet.
It will work. It's as far as possible from the best practices but there should be no problem with connectivity. The communication itself might be inefficient as in some cases PCs will have to send packets to the gateway instead directly to the target...
Hmm you actually might be right hobbe. I should rather think 'what if anything goes wrong' and not only about when things are ok. I'll have to check myself for the best solution. Thank you!
12 inch is ok, but I'd prefer 6 inch. I thought those twisted pairs are to help send data when the distance is quite long. Do they really matter with short ones?.
