Title: Router upgrade
Post by: Stryker on March 22, 2004, 10:54:45 AM
This is not related to the recent net upset, however while working on the crosswired router that peers with telecomplete and avensys I was reminded that I really ought to get the new kit in the rack (thats been sitting on my desk for two weeks).

SSoo this weekend (not sure on time or date yet) I'll be swapping out said router for new kit.  Unlike previous upgrades this is an upgrade with the kit which sports the specs I've always wanted to have in the rack so it should be oooh at least 12 months before the next upgrade.

The swapping should cause all of 10 mins of network performance disruption.

Ah well I've come to the conclusion that testing is indeed very incomplete so I've put off the install till the weekend after.

The router replacement is planned for Friday night around 9-10pm.

There could be noticable disruption for around 10-15 mins.

Hmm. How exactly _do_ you identify pr0n when classifying traffic? LLQ is good, but not that good.

I'm sure counterstrike is in the priority queue though, right Stryker?  :D
