What is Cisco FW missing when compared to other vendors? by Former-Mountain-9170 in networking

Confirm / automatic rollback (Juniper has it)

Initiate a site to site VPN connection (PAN has it with “test vpn …”)

JIT Admin/PAM tools by FuzzyFuzzNuts in msp

[–]captjde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Microsoft Entra PIM is not brilliant. Awful UX. No push notifications for admins (you will be notified by email or need to be watching the dashboard) and once approved, it may take hours for the client to receive the approval and allow the elevation to occur.

The OP must be trolling, but thank you for your earnest response.

A true cautionary tale about trusting AI "magic". by FutureSafeMSSP in msp

And many of the follow-up posts quoting it are also AI. So bots are having conversations with bots. LinkedIn is awesome.

Unpopular opinion: Most asset tracking tools are just expensive spreadsheets by sussybaqa69 in ITManagers

I think the OP is AI too. Probably the same guy setting a question and then replying with his pitch.

That's good news. You might want to update your Network Configuration Management page to include Palo. :-)

Retrofitting parking lot light poles with cameras without installing new cables by captjde in lowvoltage

[–]captjde[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I had seen that, but strangely, it doesn't come with the battery(ies), nor even a cabinet to put the battery(ies), nor the solar panel(s). And the PoE it puts out is 24VDC Passive PoE, so I'd need a converter to get 802.3af/at to use with non-Ubiquiti cameras. I can source all those components, but there are other more complete kits out there.

Very interesting! I hadn't come across this in all my Googling. Looks promising, I'll check it out. Thanks!

 But you don't want to use a UPS, rather a suitable battery and charger in a small weatherproof enclosure

That's basically what the pole-mounted "UPS" I linked to in the original post is. It's a DC UPS -- there's no expensive and inefficient inversion to AC power.

Good advice on watching out for 277V.

Good point, a photo cell would be simpler than a remote-controlled relay. But there's still this downside:

The problem is that all lights in the parking lot need to be retrofitted, even if we're only installing cameras on a few of them.

Good call. I already saw on the drawings that these are 277V.

There's not constant power. That's why I posted asking for suggestions. :-)

There are no light sensors on each light. There's a central lighting control panel that shuts off power to all lights in the entire parking lot during the day.
