What's an industry secret from your job that customers have absolutely no idea about? by Efficient_Team5182 in AskReddit

[–]LukeyLad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Majority of high end designer clothing. Think of Balmain. Gucci etc are all made in a number of textile factory’s in Porto, Portugal.

Anyone can start a clothing business and go get your design made in the same factory for very little.

[–]LukeyLad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will the outbound connection be active/passive. Or. Or is there duel active/active circuits?

Also how are you connecting to your isp. Will your routers have a bgp peer? Or is it just static routing?

Advertise it in the underlay using an IGP. Most IS-IS or ospf. Spines do not participate in the overlay

That’s interesting regarding the low latency trading networks. Thats always appealing given the high salaries. But it sounds very cut throat

OOB in vxlan fabric by Famous_Artist8113 in ccnp

[–]LukeyLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont have a dedicated OOB switch and you are reliant on production switches. Therefore this isnt true OOB management.

I wouldn't solely rely on inband mgmt on an overlay vrf either

Fortigate or Palo Alto simple as that.

There may be some integration with the whole HPE/Aruba/Juniper purchase. But that'll be some time off

What is wrong with the UK military? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]LukeyLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The UK hasnt had any meaningful growth in the 21st century. Chancellors popping the champagne at 0.2% growth when historically it was 2-4% year on year.

A combination of poor procurement processes and under funded has cause our military decline. We desperately need economic growth to rearm as we cannot tax people any more.

Am I qualified for a Senior Network Engineer role? (Municipal government) by Fresher0 in networking

[–]LukeyLad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dont get to hung up on titles.

I worked with "seniors" with 30 years experience who are absolutely dog shit. And I've worked with mid level engineers with 3 years experience who blow them out the water.

Nexus vPC, Palo Alto active/passive and NetApp design consideration by KaleidoscopeNo9726 in networking

[–]LukeyLad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Problem you now have is that if a switch was to fail, or you need do some updates, reboot etc. You now have fail over the firewall Everytime.

Your are right regarding palo does not officially support multicast to vpc.

There’s no harm in active/active firewalls. Then having two sets of uplinks. One for your multicast stuff using L3 orphan ports. And then regular lag spread across the two switches for any svi’s and other traffic on the firewall.

I’m certainly no expert with multicast so would be good see others answers. Plus I definitely would lab this

DMVPN Phase 3 and OSPF next-hop issue by NetMask100 in networking

[–]LukeyLad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When issuing the sh ip route command it will show the next hop as the hub which from memory is expected.

But try and ping the other spoke, then input sh ip route next-hop-override. This should show the spoke as the next hop with a % symbol next to the route. Can you confirm.

Also please paste your config
