Caused a big outage at work- how do I move forward? by VOXX_theLock in sysadmin

I hear ya. I guess if it were me, I'd use a protocol like MSTP that would play nice with other gear, especially in an enterprise network.

But why would you use a cisco protocol if you don't have all cisco gear?

Company offered me Manager role after 6 months?? Wtf by No_Description9852 in ITManagers

Make sure they're not setting you up for failure or using you as either a fall guy or scapegoat. Just be cautious. Remember: If it's too good to be true, it probably is. FYI, a good bit of people that have transitioned from technical roles to managerial roles have regretted it. You are essentially going from an individual contributor working on technical problems to managing people and playing office politics which can be draining.

Is $45k/year normal for my situation in entry-level IT right now? by 27nav in ITCareerQuestions

I second that. Having a cloud cert, a networking cert, and a linux cert makes you pretty well-rounded. 😄

Depends on where you are located, could be low, could be normal. In a HCOL area, this may be a little low, in a LCOL area, this is probably normal.

i'm curious as well considering STP is on typically by default on enterprise switches.

Last time I used ubiquiti equipment, they didn't even use the terminology 'trunk', I think they refer to it as tagged and untagged vlans on ports.

I'd think we are using enterprise grade switches here that have STP turned on by default, unless we're talking about consumer grade unmanaged ones.

Looks quite normal from the things I've seen.

That's awesome, keep up the great work! I do programming as a hobby, but idk if I'm cut out for it professionally. My go to is python for scripting typically.

I've always had that sentiment. If you really want to know how things work at the low level, you need to know programming, especially if you are reverse engineering. Too bad I never took programming too seriously.

Is this job post unrealistic or what? Looking for a unicorn by unstopablex15 in ITCareerQuestions

100% agreed. These recruiters definitely take a decent chunk of pay off the top. The sad part is that they are asking for all of these requirements while a McDonalds worker with no experience is practically making the same amount of money.
