Short video about a WAN circuit problem we had this week.

Wow, what a two weeks this has been. In this week's episode I tell you what happened, and what's going on now.

Easter Eggs in networking are not always a pleasant surprise. Usually quite the opposite. In this week's video we document how we found a small firewall on our network we never even knew was there. Software show: Intermapper - https://www.helpsystems.com/products/network-monitoring-software

In this week's video I talk about how my hospital's network has evolved over the last six years. Software used: Intermapper https://www.helpsystems.com/products/network-monitoring-software

In this week's episode we replace a dead AP. Sorry for the long silent pauses. Network admining can be that way sometimes.

I had to work overtime this past Saturday. In this week's video I give you a recap of the work that was done.

In this week's video I talk about ticketing systems.

Sorry folks no video this week. Not much happened this week but the weekend snuck up on me anyway! We'll be back next Sunday as usual if not sooner. God bless!

In this week's video I answer a question about the "green meter" I was using in a previous video. I own two models of the LinkRunner by NetAlly.

In this weeks (way too close up) video airborne updates finally return! I tell the rest of the story with the switch we replaced last week and also talk a little bit about what's coming up. This video was amateurishly edited with Windows Video Editor. If you know of a SIMPLE video editor that has more features yet is just a simple to use (think Apple's Movie Maker) please let me know in the comments below. God bless!

In this week's episode Sathish and I replace a switch that doesn't APPEAR to be working normally.

In this week's video I talk a little bit about the new (to me) airplane I'm flying and what's coming up next week.

In this week's video I talk about some of the other equipment on our network. Some of which I support, some of which are vendor supported. This is all the non-Extreme equipment.

In this week's video I give you a quick, if disorganized, rundown of the types of switches we use here. Apologize for the audio. I'm getting a lapel mic soon, promise!

In this week's video I talk a little bit about work and then a lot about my powered parachute.

In this week's video I show you my method of moving my switches from our old OM1 fiber infrastructure to the new(er) OM4 fiber infrastructure.

In this week's video my network vendors encounter an ancient fiber pair that they just couldn't get working. Two floors of a building have ZERO network connectivity. I talk about what I had to do to get the network back up for these users.

In this week's video I continue on with my legacy switch refresh project. Swapping out older unsupported switches for newer, supportable hardware.

In this week's video I give you a little more detail on the setup of the Radiology VPN slowness issue. Keep those suggestions coming! They've been great!

In this week's video I investigate a device that kept going offline during power transfer testing by our engineering department.

It's not all glamor and excitement being a network admin. Sometimes all you're doing is plugging in a cable.

Happy Resurrection Day or as some call it, Easeter! He is risen! In this week's video I talk about a challenge we are facing with slow VPN access complaints. Link to iperf3: https://iperf.fr/iperf-download.php

In this week's video I demonstrate how I use a template to do initial switch configuration. Network tester I showed in the video: LinkRunner AT - https://www.netally.com/products/
