(14:23:39) me: Hmm..i just thought of something that you should do/propose...
(14:23:45) notbigenough2: Ok
(14:24:08) me: You know how you have that unrouted vlan where private nets/mgt stuff goes (not the switch mgt net), vlan 9 i think it is?
(14:24:20) me: where the tape library is
(14:24:26) notbigenough2: yes
(14:25:30) me: you guys ought to reconfigure the crap netgear switch where the blue arc stuff is as well as other things that have out of band telnet/http/etc management (the new sun storage i think does also) to be on that vlan
(14:25:46) me: then take a port you guys area, a port in eric matt area and put it on that vlan
(14:26:19) me: if you need to manage one of those things then, you can just jack a laptop into the preconfigured port
(14:26:35) me: instead of having to grab a crossover cable and run into the machine room.
(14:27:06) me: make sense?
(14:27:45) notbigenough2: yes but all the switches are on vlan1 and all appear to be working fine. Especially since we got rid of the 1i from that eqation
(14:28:09) notbigenough2: also working on getting a switch between the firewall and the 7700's so they will actually work correctly
(14:28:27) notbigenough2: also trying to get the vlan naming errors corrected
