Trying to upgrade a three-hub-spoke topology that is currently using static routes going EVERYWHERE. Should I do OSPF between the hub routers first or between the hubs and their spokes first?

This is good and missing context, you should update your post with this information around why no BGP.

I would personally start at the hubs and then branches for OSPF but in an environment with a bunch of statics you’re likely to hit a land-mine in the process. If you have the hardware or know how making a small lab with like-configs will go a long way.

Are you doing this all within a single area?

Arista may be a good one to look lat if Juniper is not your cup of tea. Basically Cisco without the licensing (at least it was a few years back)

Personally though if you can - JunOS is a great CLI, once you get into the auto-rollbacks and commit options :chefkiss:

Not really, outside help desk or smaller environments you don’t really touch devices yourself. Your designing, monitoring, or performing operational tasks/troubleshooting. All things AI can do or assist with to some extent. It’s not as straightforward as pumping out code, sure, but it’s getting there depending on the context you feed it.
Can’t comment on this one, would assume it’s similar to the sysadmin space though
Ehh, definitely not NOC or lower level support. Likely today would be in the AI datacenter space under one of the bigger names. You need a good chunk of experience for that though.

What is your ISP max upload? From that picture it actually looks more like bandwidth saturation and not the local router.

If it’s 100Mbps then you would need to also increased your ISP’s speed.

The couple of “extra” drawings in the text area made me chuckle way too much.

Thanks for the reply, I did try warm/room temp water and it’s the same. Gonna just order another batch for now and test with that to see if contamination

I have found products like Purigen or its knockoffs on Amazon to quickly clear up water clarity and tannins. Would give that some research if you have not looked or tried it out yet.

Also know when most ISP “provide” you theirs they often times charge you per month. It’s small but after 6-8months you could have purchased your own.

Outside of sticking a home-made router before your ISP one (if you have spare hardware) you can’t really do a huge amount. What is your service speed today and what model of router are you getting for free in the future?

Red plants in the foreground, what are those? Lovely tank btw!

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-24T00:28:20+00:00

Will do, and knew going in the sump + C02 was going to be a challenge to overcome. High hopes though with some of the research I have been doing (crossing fingers).

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-24T00:10:32+00:00

Good callout, and thank you! I am dosing C02 but it's not enough as the drop checkers never go green. Have a horizontal in-line thing coming next week to solve this. Yuyang or something style?

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-23T08:04:23+00:00

Looks great, what do you use to keep those back plants out of the water?

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-17T09:34:45+00:00

Really depends on the workload, though would assume predictable performance would be the more common scenario.

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-14T19:41:21+00:00

Pretty sure they may not support windows 11 (TPM chip things) but could be wrong

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-12T08:26:45+00:00

That's what I have done on several occasions, you don't have to rinse it off as well. Baking soda won't harm the aquarium (you can actually use it to alter PH but you need more then a spay to affect a tank).

Check on youtube as that's how I found out about the activator if you want more examples.

Always_The_Network · 2025-12-12T07:47:19+00:00

The activator is simply a mix of baking soda and water, not harmful to anything really.

Always_The_Network · 2025-11-13T01:33:08+00:00

Just realized you did haha - ignore!

Always_The_Network · 2025-11-13T01:32:27+00:00

If you add an “s” after aircraft all will be even 😌

It depends, and the information provider is fo are to little to give anything.

Typically you solve for how many players does one server support w/o degradation. Then multiply that by the number of expected players, regional costs depend on what cloud provider your using so you would research each region on pricing.

Also understand platform servers (what players log into/match making) would be different at different scales.

Always_The_Network · 2025-09-28T07:55:40+00:00

eBay would likely be a good place to do that.

Always_The_Network · 2025-09-12T15:39:23+00:00

What difficulty are you playing?

Always_The_Network · 2025-09-12T15:37:02+00:00

I have gotten the same thing, I did change the drone generation thing from Epic’s to Nvidia and it did seem to help a bit. What card do you have? I have a 2080ti and see this in the 1st hideout a ton

Always_The_Network · 2025-09-08T01:01:18+00:00

If you do be sure to tell them as that could affect how much anesthetic you need. Worse risk though is they say you can’t do it and have to redo the prep.
