Network Nugget #4 - What's in a vrf ??
Monday, 17 August 2009 08:56.A useful command has started to crop up in newer IOS revisions which allows you to check all useful configuration associated to a particular VPN. Perhaps a bit more SP useful than Enterprise useful but a very good time saver, and configuration error checking command nevertheless.

Network Nirvana or nuisance
Wednesday, 24 June 2009 22:03.I was a little late reading my copy of the Sunday Times this week. The reason for this was that I was indulging in one of my passions-Formula 1. I really thought that I was going to my last Silverstone British Grand Prix, but it seems that I may be going back next year, thanks to Bernie's change of plan. Going to the British Grand Prix is for me always a huge privilege and I never loose sight of the fact that Formula 1 really is a truly British success story. For those of you who are not fans, you may be interested to know that most of the teams are British ; the technology used in racing is some of the most advanced in the world and largely down to British engineering. Even the Force India team is based at Silverstone and is composed largely of British engineers!

The Digital Muddle-another missed opportunity for Digital Britain
Wednesday, 17 June 2009 09:59.Well, I suppose that I am one of the lucky ones! I was able to download my 3MB file on the Government's much hyped "Digital Britain" in about 30 seconds. That meant I was able to take it home and read all 239 pages of it. Whilst you may all think that is madness for a Wednesday evening, I really think that the report is extremely important for all of our futures.
